They have a dedicated GF pizza menu with about five pizza choices that are a part of the Safe Spot GF program. You can order other pizzas, that are not part of the Safe Spot program, and they will cook on a GF crust, but they will not cook it per the Safe Spot program protocol. Staff were very knowledgeable about GF protocols.

They are always 100% safe with the pizza and you will not get sick. Cheese pizza is good.

I have celiac. I ordered my all-time favorite CPK pizza, BBQ chicken, and enjoyed every bite. They knew exactly what they were doing and I felt fine after my meal.

The pizza was amazing!!! They have 5 special gluten-free pizzas and some items on their regular menu with GF so it's easy to determine what you can eat! The staff was great and informed and so was the manager. Great gluten-free service! Would totally recommend coming to this location... I'll definitely be going back!

Went here tonight and the chicken pizza was the best I have had since Coeliacs disease 5 years ago. Thin crispy base, yum. Waiter was knowledgeable and pizza came out with a gf flag on it. Wish I had a place like this in Australia.

This was my first time eating at CPK since my Celiac diagnosis. I was pleased to find a few pizzas with the blue triangle logo, which means the preparation process is validated by the GIG (Gluten Intolerance Group). I ordered the gf bbq chicken pizza, and it came with a gluten free flag in it. It was a thin crust and was unfortunately very burnt (they were extremely busy that night), but I felt fine after eating it and enjoyed the opportunity to eat a fresh pizza for once!
