Buttermilk Cafe

Eaten here a few times lately. Choices are a little limited, but if you’re ok with regular breakfast items (eggs & bacon) you can’t go wrong. They did add GF bread since I was last in. Tastes almost like a corn pancake! Very yummy and no reaction!

Omelettes and eggs can be cooked in clean pans, but the pancakes, waffles, toast are NOT made in a dedicated gf area. Waffles are made on the same waffle iron. Not Celiac friendly but the staff is knowledgeable and recommended omelette to be safe.

They have a separate griddle for gluten free and has gluten free flags put on the food for safety.

I had the gluten free waffle and it was delicious! They had a nice gluten free flag on my plate so there was no confusion on which one was mine. I’m very sensitive to cross contamination and didn’t get sick at all. Great food!

They were accommodating to additional food intolerances beyond gluten. I did not have any issues after eating there!

They have several choices for gluten free including toast that they grill on a separate area to avoid contamination. I did not have pancakes but they have gluten free pancakes available. I don’t believe they are listed on the menu but the servers seem to know their menus. Friendly staff, cute deco, clean.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They offer Any waffles, breads and pancakes in GF. They do use the same pans and cooking area as non GF food. All GF products are made in house . However, you have to ask very little of this information is listed on the menu

Celiac friendly?

No

The food was delicious and our waiter was very knowledgeable about what was safe. I can’t have casein either and nearly all their food is cooked in oil instead of butter. They have GF bread and can also make GF waffles, pancakes, and French toast.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good GF food but would really like a separate GF menu. It’s hard to ask the server each time what is available to me and if I can customize it.

Tried the GF waffle, it was AWESOME! They didn't seem to have a separate GF menu but knew what came GF. The only thing marked on the menu was the GF granola. The place was very nicely decorated and clean. Get there easily in weekends, there’s ALWAYS a wait! I don't think it will disappoint!

yummy, real waffles (not frozen)! staff is well-informed. great place to eat!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I'm really surprised that no one on here mentioned the cross-contamination in regards to the gf waffles and pancakes. Upon asking a manager, she notified us that they do use the same equipment for gf & non. Despite all this, we decided to stay. Ordered an omelet with grits and a side of bacon...it was delicious and hit the spot! Will stop by again when in town.

Loved the gf waffle!! So excited to have a great place to eat breakfast!! I will definitely drive here from San Antonio to eat! Well worth it!

Amazing food! Love their gluten free bread!! A must try!

I love their pancakes and other gluten free breakfast options. It's a comfortable and classy establishment.

I thoroughly enjoyed the fresh GF waffle and strawberries and appreciated the servers taking special care of my family's numerous GF orders to minimize risks of cross contamination.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The flavors were excellent though the portions were small. We had the shirred eggs minus the toast, as well as the Greek yogurt and fresh fruit and bacon and sausage. We debated over getting the shrimp and grits and the migas, but we're happy with our choice of the shirred eggs. My only beef was the portion size for the price.

Only 4 stars because they menu doesn't have options marked, but the staff were nice and knowledgeable and the food was good.

We came here for breakfast, and found that they have several options beyond standard eggs and bacon. I had grits with shrimp and poached egg topped with creamy lobster sauce. It was excellent and the poached egg just perfect. The waitress was knowledgeable about gluten free and said that all sauces are made to order. They also had gluten free granola with yogurt, pancakes, waffles, etc. We will be back to try out lunch options.
