Review of Hope Cafe Coffeehouse

I was excited to try Hope Cafe because I read an article in the local paper that mentioned they had healthy, gluten free options. Some pros and cons of my experience: Cons: *online menu doesn’t provide consistent GF info; calling takes you to voicemail, which triggers an auto text linking to online ordering. Not helpful. * beware of trying their special Emoliente tea - it’s made from barley (big time gluten), but this isn’t mentioned in the online menu. * our quinoa bowls were greasy and over-sauced *in person, staff wasn’t very friendly- in fairness it could have been all my gluten questions :)

Pros: *the staff answered all our questions and checked with the kitchen on some items to be sure they were GF *their arepa is gluten free, so they do have more GF options besides the bowls
