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!

Our son wanted to go out for breakfast for his 8th birthday. This place is fantastic in every way. Friendly, welcoming smiles from the minute you walk in. Very attentive staff. The food was excellent, with very large portions (consider getting a short stack if ordering pancakes otherwise will need to take home left overs, but that’s fine). Everything we tried was very well prepared and quite tasty including omelets, waffles and pancakes. One significant factor for us choosing this place is that our other son has Celiac disease and and this place is definitely Celiac friendly. They have excellent knowledge for preparing foods separately to minimize cross contamination. Our celiac son really enjoyed his GF pancakes. They don’t have a separate GF menu, but the regular menu is clearly marked what maybe prepared GF. They also brought out a cupcake with a candle for our birthday boy. Thank you for all the staff and owner for this great establishment. Definitely will be back.

They have gluten free toast made in a dedicated toaster. The staff was very knowledgeable about gluten free options. So nice to enjoy eggs with toast. Not often able to do that in a restaurant.

Have had two great experiences here since being diagnosed celiac. They have a separate toaster for their GF toast, and they’re great about taking precautions for celiacs. I feel very confident eating here!

My GF son loves the bacon and chocolate chip pancakes. We’ve eaten here four times and never felt sick (we’re very sensitive). They also have breakfast potatoes and GF toast cooked in a separate toaster among other things. Food is reasonably priced and delicious.

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!

We had a great time here at Brunch Cafe! They had a wide variety of gluten free menu options. The server was very knowledgeable about which menu items were gluten free and asked kitchen about preparation of a certain food item when she was unsure of cross contamination
