The potatoes were hard and tasteless, I also had a side of gf pancakes and 2 fried eggs. The whole meal more on the cool side. I’ve never seen that restaurant so empty, maybe that’s why! Won’t go there again!

After asking the waitress a ton a questions, I ended up asking her to find out from the manager what the safest food they have for a celiac. The answer was toast. “Everything is on shared equipment.” They wash everything as best they can but that’s far from ideal. I was disappointed that this restaurant is listed on this app. I ended up getting dry toast with very cold lettuce and tomato and bacon. It was a cold and dry BLT.
I will say though, that I appreciated their honesty!

We are in from out of state. Ate breakfast this am and yesterday.
I asked about the protocol in the kitchen. They use a separate grill for the gluten free pancakes, that were delicious. I did not try the gf waffles. There is a dedicated waffle iron for the gf waffles. They offer gf French toast.

Definitely my favorite breakfast place in the area. Have eaten here many times and haven’t gotten sick. They have gf pancakes which are my favorite! They also have gf toast. Lots of options and big portions.

at breakfast with my sister and asked our server about the gf options. She said said her manager is gf so she would check. when she came back she told me the gf choices but said they are not cd friendly, so I'm sitting here not eating.

Very yummy GF pancakes--although they were a bit on the overdone site; the server said they sometimes need to cook them longer to ensure the centers are done. The server also said they have GF toast but I didn't try it. I don't remember seeing GF waffles on the menu. I had an omelet and breakfast potatoes with pancakes on the side. I'm sure I could have also had a skillet or even just eggs and bacon or sausage with no problems. Everything was delicious--wish I lived in the area so I could go back more often!

Several breakfast items to choose from (gluten free pancakes, egg dishes and gluten free toast option). They said they had a separate cooking area for gluten allergies. This was my first restaurant experience while gluten free and they made me feel pretty safe. Food was good too!

Fantastic! Hard to find a brunch place like this nowadays. GF items are marked, they are very knowledgeable and have a dedicated toaster for GF toast. Can get GF pancakes! Portions are large. Very friendly wait staff. Would definitely come back!
