Brownstone Diner & Pancake Company

I have celiac and a dairy allergy. We sent my salad back multiple times due to cheese in it. They clearly do not understand cross contamination, it was melted on my chicken, stuck to the avocado, even intermixed with the greens.

First off, they use the same grill for the gluten as well as gluten free pancakes. I asked them to use a skillet instead and they refused. They would just “clean the high top real good.” There is a possibility that they got soap in our pancakes because they tasted ROTTEN. Either that or the GF batter was old. The pancakes were super thick like bricks. See picture. Inedible. I called to complain and the guy with an Italian accent said “they are gluten free that is how they taste.” I told him I went to the edgewater location and they did NOT taste like this. What a waste of $30 for two orders of pancakes! Should have made them at home from a box. Then he put me on hold and I could hear him making light of the fact that I complained that their food was inedible. Look at the picture. Don’t go here. They don’t know how to treat their customers.
