Another Broken Egg Cafe

I advised my server I had Celiac and needed gluten free. I asked about the waffles on the gf menu, they do NOT have a dedicated waffle iron. I ordered an omelette with NO bread. My order came out and it had an english muffin on top of it. The server removed the english muffin and handed me the plate! Had I not been watching like a hawk, I would have been glutened! I promptly refused my meal and sent it back and they made another one. I would not eat here again.

GF pancake was so good I questioned weather it was really GF! Fluffy and tasty. Service was knowledgeable and kind but slow with 7 of us. Five people got food and finished eating before the other 2 ever got food. They did comp my GF meal.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

EAT HERE. Great gluten friendly menu. Possible cross contamination, which is why "friendly" & not GF. But the pancakes are amazing!

Amazing GF pancakes! Highly recommend

Terrific breakfast for gluten sensitive!! Great jumbo gf pancake with mixed berries. Also offered gf mini pancakes with omelet, instead of bread.

I have eaten at several locations around the country and have been gluted every time

Poor GF options for lunch. No GF breads

Such good gf pancake, just one but it's very large! Everything else I've had is pretty average though.

This was my first time eating here and it exceeded my expectations. The menu states their environment is not gf but many items can be made gf if cross contamination is not an issue. We shared the giant GF pancake with berries which was deliciously light and fluffy(served with real maple syrup)and the black bean eggs Benedict. Our server Colin M was very helpful and knowledgeable. He went the extra step of verifying no gluten in the hollandaise sauce and then put our bennies on mini gf pancakes. This is the best breakfast in New Orleans!

Amazing. Go here.

The gluten free pancake is a great treat and really delicious with berries! Good coffee and atmosphere as well. A perfect little breakfast stop.

Sad to say that this restaurant does not take GF serious. Ordered shrimp and grits without sausage. It had to be remade 3 times: 1-had sausage/ 2-had bread and was not remade GF and then the third time it hit the table I still found sausage. I will not be returning to franchise anymore.

Not celiac friendly in my experience. Ordered from GF menu for myself and my two children. Had a bad reaction within two hours :(

Celiac friendly?

No

Server was horrible and brought my meal out with a regular English muffin on top of my eggs. I questioned her and she acted mad but took the plate back to make it right. Brought another egg dish out with just the fruit. Asked her what about the grits? She claims the grits are not GF. I question why are they listed on the GF menu then? She then said she needed to check with the chef and hastily walked away pushing through the kitchen door. Her attitude and lack of knowledge is why I wrote this review. This place is not safe especially for celiacs. I have eaten here in the past and they have always gone above and beyond to make sure the food is safe. She never did address the grits when she brought the check, once again confirming she did not care one bit. I will give my business to other local places that actually care about their customers.

Pancakes are not dairy free only gluten free. The bread for GF toast is pretty standard. Service was great and quality of food was excellent, I was just disappointed by the lack of GF AND DF options.

The waitress seemed knowledgeable. She verified things for us with the kitchen. I was brought regular pancakes and thankfully she came running out to take them back before I took my first bite. My sibling and I both had reactions within 15 minutes of finishing our food.

Celiac friendly?

No

It’s not often you find many places with a nice gluten-free selection for breakfast. Every time I go, it’s definitely for the pancakes. I’ve had the gluten friendly pancakes and the banana foster gluten free pancakes and love both. Definitely go with an appetite. I’ve never had a reaction any time I’ve eaten there. However their menu does state cross contamination can occur. Always a pleasant experience when I’ve been.

Ordered the lemon blueberry goat cheese pancakes with the house made sausage patties and scrambled eggs. Hated all of it, especially the pancake mix they used (walmart brand pancake mix is 1000% better - that'show bad). My husband ordered a power bowl and he hated his meal too. The photos looked good online but everything tasted terrible. The scrambled eggs were literally the egg patty you get at McDonald's, it didn't even have seasoning. Only gave 2 stars since GF isn't always easy to find. Maybe lunch would have been better?

Waffles and other items came back at gluten found on my Nina sensor. I’ve had bad stomach pains eating there.

Separate GF menu-staff somewhat aware. They knew that bread shouldn’t not be toasted because of cross contamination but then still brought out toasted GF bread. They did make a new plate of food -with untoasted GF bread. Also-waitress didn’t bring grits because she thought grits were not GF.

Happy with selections

My wife has Celiac. We requested a gluten-free menu when we went in. What they have is a gluten-friendly menu, on which is made clear that there is a risk of cross contamination. Basically, they can serve you a dish that has gluten free ingredients but none of the equipment is dedicated gluten free. She opted to risk it with shrimp and grits. It was an excellent, spicy dish. She had no symptoms following the brunch, so that was a good thing. I won't give them 5 stars bc I feel they could do more to alleviate cross contamination.

Cute atmosphere, great food, really slow service. Large gf menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wonderful service!!!! Wonderful food!!! We will return!!🥰 Great coffee!!!💜🙏🏻💙☺

I'm only doing four stars because the gluten friendly pancakes here make me sick. As long as I avoid those choices I do fine with their food.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I got the gluten friendly pancake trio with 3 different flavors of pancakes, bacon and scrambled eggs. The bacon was SO good, the eggs were good, and the pancakes were good. The bananas foster pancake was by far the best of the three flavors. I could eat the banana foster pancake and bacon every day for the rest of my life and be very happy. The coffee was good and comes in a fun shaped mug. I can't wait to go back and try several other menu items I was tempted by. Especially the shrimp and grits. I will update after I have had them. Most importantly I have celiac and I feel great after eating here.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is absolutely amazing. Not only is it clean with friendly staff, but they are very good about allergies and celiacs. I will definitely eat here again.

Great "gluten friendly" menu, BEST gluten free pancakes I've ever ate. I seriously didn't know good gluten free pancakes existed until here

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Omg! So good. Pancakes are amazing. Bananas Foster pancake is best. Mixed Berry would be next. Blueberries would be third. So good. Waitress knowledgeable. Staff pleasant. Will be back soon.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They are very good with celiacs. They also have almond milk, for nilk allergies.

Celiac friendly?

They have a gf menu and the pancake trio was awesome. No breakfast potatoes are GF. We loved it. You can call ahead by a half hour. I don’t get digestive symptoms so I can’t speak to that but I thought the food was good and there were many options.

Absolutely amazing! Super friendly service. The server checked and re-checked to make sure my food was safe. I had the gf berry pancakes. It was delicious. They even brought out pancake syrup in a little jar that was sealed. We are going back again before we leave.

Came back for a second time the following day. The Bananas Foster gf pancakes are to die for! Heavenly!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wonderful service and food! Chris, the manager, and his team took care of us. We enjoyed gluten free pancakes and scrambled eggs. They made sure there was no cross contamination and answered all questions. We definitely plan to return!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Yummy gluten free pancake options! I personally like they home fries!

They have a designated gluten free and vegetarian menu. Homey atmosphere with friendly staff. Great Brunch place for the family with decent prices.

You can not have toast as they use the same toaster.

Breakfast Potatoes are not safe shared fryer.

They do have a gluten friendly menu.

The pancakes are cooked in a separate place but I had to ask 4 people to get a straight answer.

We got the wrong pancakes (still GF) and the waitress made a point to take away the mistake pancakes like someone else was going to eat them.

I believe if I had a different waitress it would have been better. She made is clear that she had no interest in my questions. She was rude did not make me feel safe in ordering food.

Celiac friendly?

No

The staff was knowledgeable about their gluten free items and the staff is super friendly. We ate here twice during our stay and both times I felt fine. The berry gluten free pancakes are delicious!

Gluten free Menu. Large servings. I had bananas foster pancakes. Large quantities. Good food

The selection was vast, and they were very careful and friendly. Felt great after my pancakes and sausage!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I don’t know exactly what it is, because I’m not usually as cross contamination sensitive as I used to be, but both times I’ve eaten here I’ve gotten sick.

My sister and I are both celiac and we were excited to see their extensive gluten free menu. My sister and I both ordered gluten free pancakes and someone in our party ordered regular pancakes. When the server came out our waiter had no idea which ones were regular and which ones were gluten free. He just guessed and handed them out. We had to do our own taste test on someone without celiac to figure out which ones were “safe” or not. We ended up not even eating what we ordered because we were too nervous that we would get sick. When we asked to speak to a manager they couldn’t be bothered. The service was terrible! So disappointing!

Celiac friendly?

No

Freaking awesome!!! Holy crap man! You HAVE to come here if you are celiac. The chef came out and spoke with me after the food. The wait staff is super freaking nice. I cannot recommend this place more. Bananas foster pancakes are out of this world.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was very knowledgeable and if you let them know they will cook separately. It’s not a dedicated gluten free kitchen. They have a lot of choices and omg bananas fosters pancakes !!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent GF pancakes, sausage and omelettes! We had bananas foster, blueberry, plain and berry, they were all amazing! Omelettes and breakfast meat is very good as well. Staff were very knowledgeable.

They claim they are gluten friendly, and they aren’t. Use same grill for all food, toast, pancakes, etc. If you have an allergy I do NOT recommend this restaurant

Celiac friendly?

No

Great GF menu to choose from. Tasted great! Server was super nice

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Our family of eight tried ALL the gluten free pancake varieties. Perfectly fluffy and a real range of different flavors. Our server John was excellent, and even made sure we had uncontaminated syrup in sealed containers. Really appreciated his efforts to make our orders right.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I went and told the staff that I have Celiac, a gluten allergy. I ordered the shrimp and grits that’s on both the gf and regular menu. Sure enough, within 45 minutes I had a huge reaction. Would not suggest for celiacs. It was very good though :/

Celiac friendly?

No

Gluten friendly not gluten free.. even stated on the menu... just a heads up!

Celiac friendly?

No

Awesome cafe! The restaurant is cute and they serve the best gluten free pancakes I've ever had! I've been multiple times and I haven't had a bad experience.

I’ll rank this as celiac friendly BUT you have to be smart about how you order. GF Pancakes are made on shared equipment. The sausage had maltodextrin and other gluten-questionable ingredients (where gluten is known to hide, like autolyzed yeast extract).

HOWEVER, they went out of their way to make me an omelette safely. They opened new containers and made sure things were clean. They made me an omelette to order and charged me $17 for it (which was a shock).

I’m giving it three stars for a SEVERELY limited menu and the high price. But I would say they could make it celiac friendly.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is a great place for a healthy breakfast with a high quality gluten free toast! My favorite is the Monterey omelette. Not sure what other GF options they have.

Celiac Defenitley do not go here if you have allergies. Asked the staff questions to clarify if the potatoes and omelette I order were gluten free and she was super rude and acted bothered by the questions. Begruggingly she checked with the kitchen but 10 minutes after leaving got I'll. Would not recommend this to anyone due to the rude servers.

Don’t come for breakfast. They said the only think you can safely eat if you don’t want cross contamination is an egg.

I’m Celiac so not taking chances

Gluten free pancakes so good I am skeptical every time and question if they messed up and gave me normal pancakes.. I haven’t gotten sick yet though! Also, pro tip: you can add your name to the waitlist via yelp so you don’t have to wait as long once you get there. :)

Best service I’ve had since my diagnosis! Great GF menu and great selection. Knowledgeable staff!! So impressed! Had the Lemon Blueberry Goat Cheese pancakes and they were fantastic. The server knew exactly what I needed when I told her I was GF due to CD. They brought my food out separate and they had gloves on.
