Review of Paperback Café

Explained I have celiac disease and that I can't have gluten. The waitress appeared to have never heard of this before but seemed to be paying attention, so that was good. A lightbulb seemed to go on, and she said, "So, you can have Gf rolls or bread!" I asked all my questions about cross-contamination and ordered a grilled chicken sandwich on toast. Mayo is spread out of a common tub, fyi, so they held that. Bread toasted in common toaster so asked if they could grill mine on the grill instead; she asked the chef and he said they don't grill bread or breaded things on the grill. The sandwich was great. The baked fries were safe but disgusting; oily, not crunchy. My daughter had a salad with mozzarella cheese and nuts. She said it was really good but awfully small for a meal salad---it was closer to the size of a salad you'd get with something else. Asked for ice coffee and lemonade to go. Again, they had several alternative milks, so that was good. But the coffee tasted like sludge and the lemonade was artificial lemon-flavored. So, I give 4 stars for the GF part---they weren't very knowledgeable but was indeed able to navigate the menu with them and had something quite tasty---but 1 star for the other food. So, definitely stop here if you're going through and just need a safe meal (ask all your questions) but don't plan to go here for something special.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
