Such a great atmosphere for anyone dining at Big Daddy's. I love their gf pancakes (add chocolate chips:)! The pancakes are very fluffy. After taking a few bites I had to ask to make sure they were gf (THAT GOOD!) I've eaten at the Uptown and Downtown locations. Great breakfast/brunch option!

I was mislead into believing the pancakes and waffles were gluten free. If you have celiac or are really sensitive you can't have them. It's made on the same grill and the same waffle maker as regular pancakes and waffles. I ended up having to have a salad.

Not much for vegetarian options but the veggie burger was so good! They have large GF bun substitutes too rather than a tiny hamburger bun or piece of bread.

All the pancakes are gluten free so not sure what the other complaints were about. They don’t have regular pancakes. So the only choice is gluten free for pancakes.

Not safe for celiac's. They have GF batter for the waffles but use the same iron as the regular waffles. Gluten Buns are grilled on the same area as the burger patties. I said I had multiple allergies and they said flat out, there would be cross contamination. Looks like a fun restaurant but from a celiac perspective? Hard No.

I ordered glutenfree pancake and the waiter assured me that the pancakes were ok. I asked many times to be sure of that but one hour later i felt very bad, so this means pancakes were FULL of gluten. Attention! Big daddy is not reliable!
