Waitress was good about checking for allergens, but their gf bread/waffles/pancakes are all cooked/toasted in same equipment so do not order if you have celiacs

My husband and I really enjoyed our visit here on a Saturday afternoon. They have an extensive self-serve coffee bar, which was a nice touch while waiting for our food so we didn't have to wait for refills. They have a gluten-free section on the menu, I was pleased to see they offer gf pancakes, french toast, waffles and toast (although I did not ask if they use a dedicated gluten-free waffle iron or toaster for the latter two options since I ordered the pancakes. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly, she made sure to point out that my gluten-free pancakes could actually be made with any of the add-ins as the regular pancakes with the exception of sweet potato since that's it's own batter. I ordered the banana walnut pancakes. My pancakes were fluffly and flavorful, I loved the crunch and the banana ratio was perfect. The portion sizes were huge, I couldn't finish them! We were both pleased with the food, service and ambience and we plan to make a return visit in the future.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The server said the omelettes are cooked in a separate pan so probably one of the safer items. My celiac son had a Denver omlette and liked it. He had the GF toast on the side another day and was fine. We have eaten here with 2 celiac people at least 4x, and never had any issue. They also offer GF French toast.

Had a delicious omelet with fruit. Gluten free bread is toasted on the same griddle as the other bread. Some items marked gluten free (waffles, pancakes) but would be worried about cross contamination here.

I got sick a couple hours later. Very tasty but a lot of regret.

Good variety options, I ordered a sandwich with gluten free bread. Bread was toasted when I got it and I had the server double check it wasn't toasted in a gluten toaster but it was. She was very kind, but clearly did not know about gluten free. I asked them to remake it not toasted and the bread fell apart almost instantly. I was very disappointed as I was told this place was very good for gluten free :(

This is the one place I know I can eat and feel ok after. I always get the Popeyes omelette and ham fries and gluten free toast. Aside from the toast being a touch on the brown side for me, it's awesome every time.
