The gluten free options are not listed on the menu. When we asked about gluten free options, we were told everything could be made gluten free. Then we were told that only the crepes could be made gluten free and they had gluten free toast. I told the waitress I had an allergy so I really needed to know what was safe. She then added that the vegetables were gluten free. I should have just left but we had already waited an hour to be seated. I got the gluten free crepe ( which also took an hour) and it was thick and gummy. It was totally not worth the 2 hours we spent there and I walked out sick. I’m assuming it was cross contamination. I definitely wouldn’t go again.

Cute restaurant. Gf options listed on the menu. Crepe was good! They had vegan options available also, they were marked on the menu. Nice staff and good location.

My server Keith was a very polite guy explained the menu and what was and wasn't available gluten free. My mother and I Ordered the gf fried chicken. Now this is where the good experience ended. He came back moments later to inform us that the gluten free fryer had been contaminated earlier that day, and we could choose a non fried option. So I ordered the GF burger with everything minus tomato and onions. My mother ordered pulled pork or something Our order came moms was correct mine had onions and tomatoes on it. Sent it back took 10min to get a new one this time nothing on it at all. Have to ask for toppings wait 7more minutes by this time my mom is almost finished. He brings back mustard and lettuce has to go back for ketchup wait another 5 minutes. Finally I get my burger together that is now Lukewarm. The bun tasted soo good it was hard to believe it was gluten free but after all that it had to be right?!? Nope got home n have been sick ever since.

I asked our server which items were offered that were GF … she confirmed with the kitchen that crepes and the potatoes could be made GF. I ordered a gf crepe. Usually plates are marked to identify so I asked her to confirm… she took the plate away quickly realizing that she had not put in for a gf crepe. She then came back and said I can get my manager if you feel like you need to talk to her. Why would I need to talk to her if you are fixing the problem… the new crepe came out wrong ingredients… if you are celiac… I would not recommend chancing it for mediocre breakfast

They were completely out of any GF options, which we weren’t told until 30 minutes in to sitting down. Call ahead before you go.

Have GF crepes but nothing else specifically called out as GF. Got scrambled eggs and breakfast potatoes and a plain GF crepe for a side. No issues. Cross contamination is a heavy possibility.

Amazing gluten free crepes with no extra cost. I had my service dog (who smells for gluten) check both my places and let me know I was safe to eat. They are also called vegan and I was very confused at first but I had the Nutella and strawberry crepe and the roasted apple crepe both were very good. I highly recommend this restaurant I didn’t get sick.

I really liked this place! Our server Natasha was especially kind. The food was great too. I've had the vegan gluten free crepe with sweet cream and fruit. Delicious! I am severely gluten intolerant. But it's nice to have a safer place to eat where I dont have to watch and be afraid of getting sick later.

Amazing gluten free crepes, and no additional charge! Coffee bar where you can help yourself while you wait! Came here on vacation and ate breakfast here two days in a row. Very popular, so there could be a wait to get a table and for your food to be served, but WORTH IT!

The gluten free vegan crepe is a must!!! I have celiac and I did not get sick eating here. I also have a dairy allergy & follow a vegan diet so they were able to fill my crepe with veggies per request. The breakfast potatoes were amazing, as well as their mimosas. They took my dietary concerns VERY seriously. I will definitely be back next time I’m in STL!

Not as GF-friendly as advertised. No GF options clearly listed on menu, but some apparent options. Server wasn't clear if crepes were GF. Another server thought so. Went for scramble instead, which was great.

Many options for gluten free customers. Great food! I ordered something without realizing an ingredient was harmful but the chefs knew it was and left it out. Stress you're gluten free and they will take care of you! The wait is quite long but for me it was worth it and everything is fresh. Nothing from a carton!

We went on a Monday around 10am. We were told that our wait was 12-30 minutes when we arrived. We waited over 45 minutes. The service was incredibly slow even after we ordered as soon as we were seated. The food was so so. They offer gluten free crepes. Not impressed at all.

Great place to eat before Celiac disease. I called to talk to the manager before going to eat for my dad's birthday. Had a GF crepe work nutella. apparently, the crepe was gluten free, but they cross contained the nutella. That's the only thing I could think of. On the way home I started to get sick. I'm so careful about eating out. after this experience I didn't eat out for almost a year. Outback steakhouse restored my faith in Gf options

Very delicious! I got a goat cheese gf crepe and it was fantastic, I will totally go here again if I'm ever back in this city. The atmosphere was really chill and the service was great, I enjoyed the experience very much. My only thing is it seemed a bit pricey to me, but not outrageously so.

This was my first time there, so I don't know if they've changed the crepe recipe, I got a bad batch, or other people just have different ideas about what makes a good crepe.

These things were terrible. Like, they-should-be-embarrassed-to-serve-them bad. No taste at all. Hard to cut, harder to chew, and nigh-on-impossible to digest.

A-Mazing. The server and hostesses were very helpful with gluten free options and my crepe was fantastic. And not only was I eating gluten free, I was also eating local and being offered farm fresh ingredients instead of garbage. Thanks!

WOW!!! It was so very nice to have brunch away from home. They were extremely busy when we showed up, we almost left since quite/off hours seem to be better times to eat gluten free. Luckily we stayed and had a wonderful experience! With Celiac I didn't get sick and we will be back!!

Wonderful menu and great service. Gluten free crepe shells are available at no extra charge - just be sure to confirm that your meal is gluten free before you start eating as the food isn't marked. The gluten free crepe shell looks a bit different from the standard one if you look at them side by side.
