NutrixeFruits & Roots Juice and Smoothie Bar
Gluten-free optionsFruits & Roots, in downtown Roanoke, is an organic, fully plant-based juice, smoothie and bowl bar. The house granola used in the bowls is gluten-free, and the oats (overnight oats, bars, granola) are labelled gluten-free: oats are still poorly tolerated by some people with coeliac disease. The venue does not present itself as entirely gluten-free: risk of cross-contamination, mention it at the counter.
No dedicated menu; adaptable dishes are flagged.
Good to know if you have celiac disease
