Westport, Connecticut, has 3 verified addresses, and all 3 are fully dedicated kitchens: no wheat flour on the premises, no question to ask when ordering. Two of the three are sweets-focused — a chocolate shop and a bakery — and only one allows for an actual meal. All are in the center of town.
The city in numbers
The meal: Green & Tonic
Green & Tonic, 17 Jesup Road, belongs to a 100% gluten-free, plant-forward chain: smoothie bowls, sandwiches and a house bakery, the whole menu gluten-free. It’s the only one of the three addresses where you sit down for a meal. One note on the source: our verification here rests on a single specialist listing describing the address as dedicated. That’s less cross-checking than for the other two addresses.
The two sweets addresses
- The Cake Box, 10 Bay Street, is the brand’s second shop, opened in 2016, with the same 100% gluten-free menu as the original in Ridgefield: cookies, brownies, cupcakes and banana bread styled as monkey bread, made on site every day. Tripadvisor, Yelp and the official website agree.
- Chocolatieree, 66 Church Lane, is an artisan chocolate shop: organic, gluten-free, additive-free chocolates made by hand. The owner, who has celiac disease in her own family, runs a workshop entirely dedicated to gluten-free. Atly pages confirm the establishment as dedicated, matching the house’s website and Instagram account.
Our tips on site
- Say “I have celiac disease” rather than “gluten-free”: it’s the phrase that triggers real precautions.
- Plan your meal at Green & Tonic: it’s the only one of the three addresses that isn’t a sweets shop.
- In the United States, two associations serve as the reference: the Gluten Intolerance Group (GIG) and Beyond Celiac, which publish information in English for celiacs.
- All three addresses are downtown — Jesup Road, Church Lane, Bay Street — and can be done in the same outing. See also what “dedicated kitchen” changes compared to a gluten-free menu, and our guide to gluten-free travel in the USA.
