Great experience getting takeout here! I got the chicken salad sandwich on gluten free bread. Staff were super knowledgeable and pickup was easy. My sandwich was good and it was so nice being able to pick up a sandwich for on the go like most people can. Would definitely recommend and I plan to come back and try other menu items.

Fantastic gluten free food! They have a gf section on the menu. Breakfast and lunch options, with gf bread choices. Burger was awesome, gf bun was so yummy! Frier is shared, so not safe for celiac. Service was fantastic! Safe for celiac, they are careful, and knowledgeable my server was also gf.

We had a good experience here. But I didn’t love the variety. They basically had two things gf my kids would eat. I wish they made gf pancakes or waffles.

Get the Fat Elvis stuffed French toast. Do it. On the menu there is a GF section, and clearly states that GF items are made in a separate toaster/pan. No dedicated fryer, but waitresses were knowledgeable about items this excluded (e.g. sausage)

Amazing. They have their own gluten free section on the menu. Our server also had celiac so she was knowledgeable and accommodating. I got the gluten free French toast and asked for the walnut cream cheese on the side so I could have a little bit (not too much because of the dairy). It was absolutely delicious. Side of potatoes and fruit which are always a win! Will definitely be coming back!

This place is a gem!! If you want a traditional diner for breakfast or lunch, and you are gluten-free, go here! They keep gluten-free bacon at the ready! My son, who is celiac, enjoyed it, and did not get sick!! He wished for gluten-free pancakes, which they don’t serve, but I think the gluten-free French toast was awesome! Recommended by a mom of a celiac!

Gluten free French Toast with Apple Walnut Cream Cheese. It was out of this world. My son had a gluten free turkey club. Real meat, not deli sliced. Everything was fresh and delicious.

We've eaten here a couple of times and I have never gotten sick which is awesome. They do not have fries OR chips that are safe, so expect to ask to sub to fruit or something, but this is a great little local spot that I am thankful for. They are very well aware of gluten issues.

Decent selection of GF options. Ate here twice (after diagnosis) and both times food was good, and servers seemed aware of GF protocols. Minus 1 star because there was some type of leaf in my potatoes once which made me feel less confident about the cross-contamination. Made me question if the pan was really clean before being used.
