They have a menu that labels gluten free options really well. But, coeliacs beware.

I ordered scrambled eggs on toast, telling them I was a coeliac. It came out on obviously gluten bread, so I asked them to remake it.

They waited a few minutes and then brought out what was obviously the same eggs (it had the appearance of eggs that have had time to coagulate post-cooking, and they had originally arrived with a distinctive clumping that was present in the original eggs.)

I asked if they’d been remade and our server said “yes”. When we followed up with her, she went to the kitchen to ‘confirm’, and several minutes later said they’d remake it ‘just to be certain that they’d been remade’, and fell over themselves to apologetically offer a baked good (which had gluten lol) or any other thing I’d like as an apology.

New eggs were definitely remade, but I got a sore stomach soon after eating so I fear there may have been cross contamination.

The food is tasty, but I’d caution coeliacs about the risks. All the more galling because they charge $2 for one slice of gluten free bread!

Terminal A at A5, they have a menu with gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan options. I had oatmeal with almond milk and potatoes. I’d been searching for gf breakfast options with no success so I was excited to find this place!

Pedí un Banana Bread con miel y frutos rojos, delicioso. Muy buena opción para desayuno. Sé que tienen otras opciones sin gluten como açaí bowl y granola, pero no los recuerdo todos bien. El café es muy rico. Aunque yo pedí para llevar, el lugar es hermoso. 💙

Ordered chili scrambled eggs with avocado on gluten free toast (plain Udis style), a slice of GF banana bread, and a matcha. Everything was delicious. Service was excellent too. The only reason why I might not go back is the price — it was a very expensive breakfast
