The gluten free French toast is wonderful. But unfortunately after two days in a row of eating here i had symptoms of cross contamination. Even after being very specific about cross contamination. Granted, it was a busy Sunday. Coffee is very weak. Service is prompt. There is outdoor seating. No one wears masks. Felt safe enough outside on the deck under a big tree. Food was good. It was crowded and there is a wait. Will go back for that French Toast!* AND*... see above.

My first visit there I got the French toast, and it was the best I’ve had! Very thick cut bread, cozy little place! The mango sweet tea is great too! We there a second time on our vacation and got the French dip sandwich on gluten free bread. 10/10 recommended!

This is a cozy "cottage." You can eat inside or out on a large deck under a huge shade tree. The service is very attentive always. I have eaten here regularly and have never become ill. The gluten free choices are so delicious. The breakfast here is way beyond the typical chain restaurants. The vibe here is like eating on grandma's porch dressed up with lace curtains and colorful tables and napkins. Stop here and relax and enjoy the food.

I agree with other reviews about the GF French Toast - it is absolutely brilliant. However they have had a lot of building maintenance issues recently so it is not a good choice for anyone with dust/mold allergies.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The restaurant is celiac friendly, but their food does not deserve more than three stars. The restaurant is cute, but cramped, and the waitstaff is overstretched. We live here year-round and decided it was not worth returning to.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I am celiac and love this restaurant, it is one of my go to breakfast or brunch in the area. the staff are friendly and are knowledgeable of celiacs. I got sick from the gf french toast once but i believe it was because i did not specify the order for an allergy (it was a second batch that my non gluten free batch ordered because mine looked so good!) I love their french toast! the bread they use is amazing! very accommodating and i feel safe eating there

SO many gluten-free options!!! I had a hard time deciding what to order, but went with the French toast since it had such rave reviews...I was not disappointed! Atmosphere is colorful and super cute. I will definitely be back next time I am in town!! I also noticed they have a whole GF menu of baked goods you can order ahead of time...what a cool place!

The greatest place for celiacs to have breakfast! Gluten free French toast is a real treat and staff can help make almost the entire menu safe for celiacs. Strongly recommend.

Very enjoyable breakfast. Everything from the wait staff to the GF French Toast was great. Will return before our vacation is over.

Great food! French toast and bread.

Amazing GF French Toast! Super cute decor with quick service.

Wonderful service and excellent food. Gluten free French toast was comfort food for me! My daughter had the Eggs Benedict with lobster on gf toast. Excellent. Service was fast. Great cottage bright decor!

Great gluten free French Toast! Had no issues at all.

Food was amazing and they went out of their way to accommodate my multiple allergies. My waitress was so good going back and forth trying to figure out what all they could do to help me get a safe meal. My non-allergy husband said it was the best pancakes he had ever had

Finally a great place to get breakfast and toast! Locally sourced bread from Island Gluten Free Bakery. Eddie and his folks are super people who are very excited about offering great gluten free options! You have to try the french toast! Amazing!
