They seemed knowledgeable about gf and cross contamination- and took care to make sure I felt safe. I had an omelette and it was really good. I felt safe here and would come back again.

Great experience! Menu is not labeled but the server was happy to walk me through GF options. I got just eggs, tomatoes, beyond sausage, and toast. Staff told me they use Udi’s bread and have a dedicated GF toaster. Unfortunately the fries and breakfast potatoes are not safe because of CC but otherwise there are a good amount of options.

Several gluten free options including bread and pancakes. Went for breakfast and it was such a nice experience we went back for lunch! Waitstaff very knowledgeable and friendly. Ate there several times during my stay and will definitely be back!

There is gluten free bread and a dedicated gluten free toaster! The sausage is not gluten free. I had to ask questions to ensure everything was cooked in a safe way, and they were happy to comply.

Staff was knowledgeable and panicked when my CD son's GF sandwich came out with batter fries, she immediately brought a "safe" salad as a side. He had no reaction, but kitchen staff may need more training on cross-contamination.

This place seems to have improved in its handling of gf needs since the previous reviews. They had gf bread to make their sandwiches on. My hubby got one of those and it was decent. I got a salad w/o croutons and the server was able to verify that the dressing was gf. Not sure how they are with CC, but I didn’t get sick. Cute place inside. So I guess, go at your own risk if you’re super sensitive, and hopefully they continue to improve in their awareness of what we all need.

Like this restaurant but do not find them really gluten friendly. They don't go out of their way to allow substitutions.

No idea why this is on the app. The server doesn't even know what a celiac is. Her response when asking for help with the menu "it's just.... Whatever.... The menu has...." Other than that, it's a cute diner. Great for all your non-celiac friends!

rather confused. They are listed here but when I went to the restaurant the manager was almost hostile and suggested I go else where if I needed gf. So I went to the next restaurant.

No GF menu, but the menu is GF friendly and they know what's in the food, which is simple and fresh. My fave is the shrimp scampi - the garlic white wine butter sauce is amazing and the shrimp are have that gorgeous fresh bite. Only thing that could make it better is if they had GF bread to soak up the sauce!! But still a great option at the beach.
