Gluten free at Chuck E. Cheese's

When your child attends a Chuck E. Cheese's birthday party or your family visits “just for fun” the last thing you want to worry about is food allergies. That’s why Chuck E. Cheese's has a gluten-free individual-sized pizzas and chocolate fudge cupcakes. The gluten-free options were initially tested in the Chuck E. Cheese’s Minnesota restaurants and are now available at more than 500 locations across the United State and Canada…. Including Rimrock Village in Billings, MT and the Nodak Drive restaurant Fargo, ND. "When we began this process, it was important that we focused on doing gluten-free the right way and making our product accessible even for guests with strict gluten intolerance," said Joe Elliot, Chuck E. Cheese's vice president of Research and Development. "With the gluten-free menu we're launching nationally, we believe we have dramatically reduced the chances for cross contamination in our gluten-free products." Chuck E. Cheese's worked with two partners to develop the contamination-free process. The gluten-free pizza arrives at Chuck E. Cheese's locations in pre-sealed packaging from a dedicated, certified gluten-free facility. The Bake-in-Bag Pizza remains sealed while being cooked and delivered to the table, where it is opened and served with a sealed personal pizza cutter at the families' tables by the adult in charge. Under the same gluten-free procedure, chocolate fudge cupcakes from remain in pre-sealed, single-serve packaging until opened and served at the table. "Given that gluten-free products are something we've wanted to offer for the last few years, it feels very gratifying to deliver a product that reflects our commitment to providing even our guests with strict gluten intolerance with a product that still tastes great and expands the Chuck E. Cheese's experience from games to food and fun for so many families," Elliot said. "It's a great example of how we're working toward consistent quality across the board to make all facets of guests' visits more enjoyable." In addition to the new gluten-free menu, Chuck E. Cheese’s recently updated its traditional pizza recipes to include a thin crust option; and the salad bar has been expanded to provide options to accommodate vegan guests.
