Staff was friendly and assured it was safe. I didn't like the food very much (the choices on the menu didn't appeal to me and I thought it was too spicy), but was glad I could at least eat there. Sadly, I got sick afterwards so I definitely will not go back.

From the owner


At Gys, all dishes on the menu are by default gluten-free except those that are served with bread. However, also the toppings of the bread dishes are gluten-free, and we offer gluten-free bread as an alternative. Please note that we cannot claim to have an allergen-free kitchen, as our non-gluten-free bread is baked in the same oven as other dishes.

Therefore, our food may contain traces of gluten. For those with celiac disease or gluten intolerance, we recommend choosing dishes that are not prepared in the oven, such as snacks, cold dishes, soup, or a main course. At Gys, we take every allergy and illness seriously and do our best to prepare dishes safely. However, we cannot guarantee that our dishes are 100% free of gluten. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email us.

Waitress was very aware of celiac disease and cross contamination. Sadly I had only one choice of main course, because the other dishes were made in the oven which was also used for bread. Food was super delicious!!

No separate GF menu when we were there for lunch. But there were only a few things I couldn't have. Waitress was very aware of cross contamination and double checked that the tacos I ordered weren't to be cooked in the over with gluten orders. Food was super delicious and fresh. Great veggie food

Voorheen ging ik regelmatig naar de Amsterdamsestraatweg. Door verbouwing daar nu naar Voorstraat. Op deze locatie (mogelijk sinds verbouwing?) een oven met verhoogd risico op kruisbesmetting. Alles wordt gemaakt in de oven. De meeste gerechten daardoor niet geschikt! Slechts een paar kunnen in de pan bereid worden.. erg jammer dat de keuze veel kleiner geworden is. Personeel wel zeer goed geïnformeerd.

Hoi Renee,

bedankt voor je review! op beide locaties gebruiken we dezelfde oven en dezelfde manier van bereiden van producten. Wegens veiligheid en de kans om kruisbesmetting te verminderen, raden we inderdaad aan mensen met coeliakie aan om geen gerechten uit de oven te consumeren. We zijn er wel mee bezig en het staat hoog op ons lijstje om om meer opties aan de kaar toe te voegen voor mensen met coeliakie! Dankjewel voor je eerlijke review.

Liefs,

Waitress knew what she was talking about and my pancakes were baked in a different pan. The pancakes itself were very dry and didn’t taste good.

Dear Lotte,

It's great to hear that the waitress was knowledgeable and accommodating to your dietary needs. However, it's disappointing to hear that the pancakes were dry and not to your taste. It's important for the restaurant to not only cater to special diets but also ensure that the food is delicious and enjoyable for all customers. Thank you for sharing your experience and letting us know that we could improve our pancake recipe.

Liefs,

I had some kind of vegan sate that the waitress assured me would be gluten free and free of cross contamination. She was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. However I did get pretty sick. I think that she didn’t give it through to the kitchen that I needed to eat gluten free. However the person I was with who is not a celiac or allergic to gluten in any way and ate something else also reported being sick, so maybe it wasn’t gluten. Although it did feel a lot like it to me.

This cafe has a clearly marked menu for gluten free items - breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks! Gluten free bread was available, and the waiter confirmed they baked the bread in the oven on its own pan. Also mentioned they have a dedicated fryer. Really delicious and reasonably priced!
