Took precautions and cooked in a separate area. We're very knowledgeable about celiac and cross contamination.

Didn’t go here but called and the server said they do have gf options but that he can “guarantee everything is cross contaminated” so no go for celiacs.

Delicious GF French toast! We ordered a 2nd serving. Comes with fruit. Our server said they are used to gluten “allergies”.

We went to Famous Toastery for the first time and I can't say enough good things! It was the first place I've gone since my diagnosis where "I have celiac, I need to be really careful about gluten" wasn't met with some variety of "What the heck is gluten?" Or "Sure, lady. Whatever." 🤣🤣

Our server was knowledgeable, helpful, assured me that they had separate prep areas and knew how to handle cross contamination. They even had multiple types of GF toast!! Gluten free grits, toast, French toast and flapjacks available.

My kids had (non-gf) BLTs and sandwiches they enjoyed, my daughter said the pesto pasta was awesome! My coffee was also delicious. We truly enjoyed our breakfast and will definitely be back!

Delicious bacon and three different options for GF bread! The menu doesn’t list GF options, but the server said they could make most things without gluten. I enjoyed the French toast with GF cinnamon raisin bread.

Service was pretty slow, but I know a lot of food service places are understaffed at the moment.

Went here for brunch and felt good about all the gluten-friendly choices! Some are marked on the menu and our waitress told us about more. Gluten free bread, cinnamon bread, breakfast burrito with gf wrap, pancakes, waffles and french toast, all gluten free. I had the waffles with berries and sausage. They were great. More cake-like than crisp, but it had been a looooong time since I've had the choice of a gf waffle at a restaurant. I cannot comment on if they have dedicated spaces in preparation. If you are concerned you will need to ask more questions.

Lots of GF options, but NO dedicated space or prep items. They offer GF waffles with no dedicated waffle iron and GF toast with no dedicated toaster. I had banana nut pancakes giving close instruction and had no trouble. Felt good and the food was great. On the flip side, the gluten eaters I went with were not pleased. Coffee was terrible, potatoes were old, omelets were cold, and toast wasn't toasted. At least I got good GF pancakes though! Lol

Best tasting gluten free pancakes I've had. Lots of gf options. However they don't cook food separately. Haven't gotten sick though

Whoever said this was celiac friendly had a vastly different experience than us. The condiments were sketchy. They asked my celiac husband to avoid grilled foods. We ended up with (great) pancakes but no syrup. The food was good, but we are leaving with some anxiety!

I found the GF menu here to be very pleasing. Pancakes, waffles, French toast. Plus, other GF options. Nice breakfast spread for those of us who are sensitive to gluten. I would like to note that I didn’t experience any cross contamination.

Ordered gluten free French Toast. Regular was delivered. I was told because there are new people, but the reciept clearly ordered incorrectly. Spending my hard earned money somewhere else. Service was poor.

I don't believe they took steps to prevent cross contamination. I got the gf french toast and sausage. In less than an hour it was like I had taken a laxative.

I stopped by for a takeout order, and I LOVED the Reuben on GF multi grain bread. The hostess took my order and understood the precautions that would need to be taken. She ensured that the kitchen was verbally notified in addition to noting it in the order. The Reuben was delicious, and I had no issues.
