Bad. Went with a small group (4). Three of us were GF/celiac. One omelet came out correctly. Two omelets came out with gluten bread on them...they were sent back and within a couple minutes they came to the table...I told them that was too fast and that they probably changed out the gluten bread for GF bread because I had not ordered the GF bread. I wanted zero bread. An omelet came out that I did eat but I don't think it was correct as it had goat cheese in it. Would not recommend. They make the gluten free bread on site in a place where they make gluten bread. Seems they cater to faders only and not anyone who really needs gluten free. Of course they, as all restaurants, had the CYA statement of 'we cannot guarantee gluten free'. I get that but I also expect an order to be correct.

Good gluten free menu. Not everything is labeled as gluten free. Asked the server why the omelettes aren't gluten free, she said "aren't all eggs naturally gluten free?" And said they can substitute the bread with gluten free bread.

There were NO glutenfree options. Long time waiting and in the end a not very helpful waiter. Shouldn’t go there!

Het is een bakker waar je goed kunt lunchen of wat kunt drinken met wat lekkers erbij. Ze hebben oa brownies en een chocoladetaartje welke glutenvrij zijn. De salades konden gemakkelijk glutenvrij aangepast worden. Het personeel dacht ook heel goed mee. Ze hebben een heel uitgebreide allergenen lijst. Ook was het mogelijk om een glutenvrij brood in de bakkerij te kopen die je dan zelf mocht beleggen. Het was niet mogelijk om het menu glutenvrij te bestellen, maar op deze manier was het toch mogelijk. Heel fijn geholpen en prima gegeten.

I was impressed enough to say I would always go there if I needed a snack while waiting for a train. They do gluten-free bread which has a nutty texture with sunflower seeds. There is a range of of reasonably priced dishes including scrambled eggs, salads, sandwiches.

They had chicken soup with no carbs and some toasted seeded bread. And coconut macaroons. Those were my options today at 3pm. It was tasty.

They have table service, which I didn’t realize.
