Check For Gluten Free Restaurant In A Smartphone App
If you have a smartphone, then try the Find Me Gluten Free app. The app is helpful for finding user-contributed gluten free places! Check for it in the app store.
A problem with this app is that some reviewers poorly rate restaurants for reasons like a bad wait person or long wait time when it is kind of irrelevant to the the gluten free questions…so know that before you use the app.
