Aphrodite's Organic Cafe & Pie Shop

Great breakfast and lunch place. Only a couple items can't be done GF. The GF bread and English muffins are.

The eggs Benny and pies are a highlight.

Very accommodating for breakfast, staff knew immediately how to handle celiac. I had a delicious omelette with rosemary potatoes. GF corn muffin was just okay, but nice they have the GF options to sub.

I’m surprised there aren’t better reviews! I think Aphrodite’s is a good brunch spot for celiacs with a decent amount of gf options on the menu and a fairly knowledgeable staff. I don’t come here too often given the price point for brunch, but I’ve always been happy when I have!

Not a dedicated GF establishment, but quite a few menu items that are GF and they offer GF bread and GF English muffins as a substitute to make their benedicts and other menu items GF. We did order benedicts. The staff was knowledgeable. We had Sunday brunch and then walked across the street and picked up two pieces of pie for a to-go dessert. The pie, which we had later in evening, was great. Buttery and flakey crust.

Great for brunch, super understanding! Food is good for celiacs but not the pie.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Food is good but the service can be really slow. Gluten free pies are made in the same shop as regular pies so I would not consider them Celiac safe. 🙁

Got sick from GF pie and misc baked good (2 different trips). Assumed they were Celiac safe because they had separate tongs/fridge, but I guess not...

Celiac friendly?

No

Make sure you ask for GF salad dressing. The standard one is not GF.

Very popular cafe with xcellent food. Many GF options. Famous for their pies with several GF varieties. The Raspberry Rhubarb is especially good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
