What better way to start your Saturday than at a cafe?! If you’re in #wickerpark, you have to check out this cute cafe, @bruchicago. The crepe batter itself is made out of rice making all of their crepes #glutenfree except the Chicken Teriyaki & Tofu Teriyaki due to the sauce. We tried a bunch of options and loved every single one! We can’t wait to come back here to get some of our favorites again & try some other options! Huge thanks to #brüchicago for having us!

Super delicious! It's been years since I've been able to have a gluten free crepe, and this cafe only serves rice crepes so no cross contamination is not an issue.

Coffee was good, nothing to write home about. They also have some gluten free, dairy free, vegan cookies.

Had a yummy strawberry mango smoothie here. Was interested in a crepe, but I can’t have dairy and all the crepe options seemed to have cheese or cream in them. Didn’t ask if they could make it without. Would recommend for the ambiance and beverages though.

Not gluten free. Stuck pocki inside the crepes when I specified I needed cross contamination protection. They claimed the poki was gluten free. The staff was not rude and gave me a refund but DO NOT eat here as I do not even trust the sauce they use.

Great Gluten Free* Crepes, and good coffee! Ample seating, tables and outlets as well as couches and other lounge spots. Great atmosphere. Very hip decor and lighting. Great spot for a stressed out Grad-Student like me to study at.

*NOTE: Not sure what cross contamination is like here. I have not had a reaction, but I am less sensitive than others.

I get a latte and crepes from here all the time. I usually am very sensitive, but haven’t had a reaction from their food. Some of the crepes have pocky sticks in them, but if you tell them you have an allergy, they know to not include those. The service is great, they put a lot of care into their food and the ingredients are really high quality. You’d think it’d be hard to pack for delivery but they take great care to make sure nothing gets messy in-transit. I usually get the California breakfast, wild berry Marscapone, or banana Nutella crepe. Latte is the best in wicker park in my opinion :)

They have a 'gluten free' wrap and they will make it on a separate clean cutting board and they were very nice but I still managed to get sick. ☹
