Review of Elvira's Cafe

The menu and their website say that they can accommodate gluten free dietary restrictions.

They have “buckwheat” crepes. When I asked to confirm they were gluten free, the server immediately said yes that they were gluten free. I ordered a savory one and a sweet one to split. She said she needed to confirm that the cream for the sweet one was gluten free and that she would let me know.

Turns out none of the crepes are gluten free and they use a buckwheat/wheat flour blend. The server was completely surprised and said that she has been telling people for months that they were gluten free and that they must have changed the recipe.

Grateful that she checked but I don’t feel confident in their knowledge base.

My non-GF husband did say that the chicken and waffles were great.

The patio was nice since we had our pup with us but otherwise I would not recommend for celiac/gluten free diners.
