    Cheesecake Factory Gluten Free Menu Guide 

    Published: Jun 11, 2024 by Stefani Weiss · This post may contain affiliate links · 1 Comment

    In this comprehensive Cheesecake Factory Gluten-Free Menu Guide, you will find all the gluten-free options at Cheesecake Factory, items from their menu that you should avoid, tips for ordering gluten-free, and answers to the most frequently asked questions.

    Cheesecake Factory was founded in 1978 by David Overton in Beverly Hills, California. However, their story started in the 1940s when David Overton’s mother Evelyn Overton found a newspaper recipe that inspired her to bake cheesecake. This recipe became her  “original” cheesecake recipe. Evelyn started selling her cheesecake, which the locals very well received, however, she stopped selling them after having 2 children, David and Renee. When her son David grew up, he decided to open the first Cheesecake Factory and sell his mother’s selection of cheesecakes.

    Today Cheesecake Factory has more than 200 locations worldwide, and they are known for their extensive menu, featuring over 30 different cheesecake flavors and over 250 items, including appetizers, entrees, and desserts. Their rich menu tries to cater to people with dietary restrictions such as gluten-free, but they also have a menu called SkinnyLicious® which contains over 50 options that are 590 calories or less.

    📖 What is gluten-free at Cheesecake Factory?

    Cheesecake Factory has several gluten-free items on its menu, however, it is important to note that they don’t have a dedicated gluten and allergy-free environment. This means they use the same kitchen and equipment for preparing everything, and there is a chance for cross-contamination.

    The company is transparent that their restaurants are not gluten-free or allergen-free environments.

    When you place a gluten-free order, the staff go through a special protocol to limit the risk of gluten contamination, however, since the environment is not gluten-free they can’t guarantee that the item will be 100% gluten-free.
