They didn’t have any breakfast options for me so I got a turkey melt on gf bread for breakfast and it was good.

I had the bacon, egg, and avocado sandwich on gluten free along with a side salad and roast potatoes. They were confident they could accommodate and I didn't get sick. Food and coffee drinks were very good.

Do NOT get the Salmon Lox sandwich. The Salmon looks like it was sitting in a tub of red dye and the whole thing tasted like it went bad. Was sick for 2 days.

Staff wasn't super knowledgeable about Celiac and cross contact. I won't be going back.

I had a breakfast sandwich with bacon, egg, cheese, and avocado with a side of roasted potatoes. The bun was absolutely delicious and did not fall apart and the food tasted amazing. No issues at all! They took matters very seriously.

Enjoyed a BLT on the best bun I’ve had in a very long time! Side salad was delicious. So hard to get good veggies when traveling and these were great.

Really loved their custom coffee drinks. Ordered a second one for the road.

I asked about the corned beef hash special. The cashier went back to the kitchen to confirm. The server noted my dish as gluten free when she brought it out. The corned beef hash was delicious and a large portion. I had an Udi’s GF bun as my toast. I have Celiac and no reaction.

It’s not often I can find a quick breakfast spot. But so glad to have found one in Detroit! We got to run in quickly before our day started and I was able to eat their sausage, potatoes and fruit. Also enjoyed a delicious latte with oat milk (can’t have eggs or dairy either).

It was all delicious!

Arrived at 2:30 on a monday afternoon, staff were very patient & allowed us to finish without any hassle. The sandwich bun on my sandwich was sooo tasty. It was light, crisp, flavorful & did not fall apart or get soggy.

Not a gluten free space, but my sandwich was marked & my allergy was taken seriously.

Will return next time I am in town.

I had a great experience here - staff was very friendly and understood the severity of celiac disease. They don’t have any GF items on the menu but almost all of their items can have a GF bread/bun substitute. The power bowl is also made with gluten-free oats. They couldn’t guarantee celiac friendly but when I spoke to the kitchen about cross-contamination they understood and were extra careful. I had an egg, bacon, and avocado breakfast sandwich on a GF bun and it was 10/10 delicious. I am very sensitive to contamination and I did not get sick! If you’re comfortable advocating for yourself, I would highly recommend.
