Service was excellent. Although not a dedicated kitchen, the diner prides itself on its "Flexitarian" menu options. GF, vegan, vegetarian.....all labeled on the menu. Coming from NJ, diners are a staple go-to for meals. Had the french toast. Excellent bread options. Recommended by our hotel desk clerk, it was a find. Average pricing for these inflationary times.

Ehh. Gf menu looks good but Not great food. If I have to pay extra for GF, I want my food to at least taste good. Didn't get sick but didn't really enjoy eating here.

The good - had Jack Omelette with home fries bacon and GFree toast - no symptoms. The not-so-good. Server was nice but slow. Food Pretty mediocre. For the money not worth a visit.

Even though they clearly notate GF entrees on the menu, the waitstaff doesn't understand. I have been there many times and never had the food delivered correct the first attempt. Disappointed, especially for a place that prides themselves as allergen friendly.

Fantastic g free choices ... My kids and I each enjoyed our g free pancakes and French toast ... And nitrate free bacon and sausage. It is expensive, but worth it apart from the g free menu because they use locally sourced fresh food.

Although they have several GF items I consider "converted" GF (pancakes, etc.), I have found that they have a poor knowledge of the gluten content of the remainder of the menu. I called the main office and their staff was extremely friendly and able to look up details of various items on the menu. Per the home office, each store manager has access to a "master book" that identifies each item on the menu. Unfortunately, this location could not locate theirs when I visited. I also got the impression that the wait staff had a very poor understanding of gluten. Prior to my diagnosis this was one of my go-to spots, so my rating is with a heavy heart . . .

This modern take on the old time diner is a gem. Delicious food, friendly staff, and total awareness and sensitivity to GF. They serve Van's waffles, which are great. However - some normally GF items, like breakfast potatoes, are coated with breading. Make sure to ask!

I came here thanks to the reviews on this app. I got the power breakfast with (what I hope was!!!) GF toast. She verified that they have a separate toaster for the bread. But the bread stayed together so well, I'm just waiting for a reaction LOL! The power breakfast comes with sausage patties that are marked as GF. All in all, delicious!

I had a burger with fries. As you all know everyone’s allergies are different. The manager did note that there was a chance of cross contamination with the fries. Which is a standard warning everywhere. I’m usually able to eat fries at all of the fast food restaurants, never had a problem. However, I had a severe allergic reaction from their food. I’m guessing it was the fries. So, if you’re like me and you like a burger with your FRIES (for me the fries are the best part), you’ll want to skip this place. Also, the gluten free bun is tough and has a weird texture. On a positive note, the staff were all very friendly. I had great service.
