Delicious omelette and Gf bread. Also, had a yummy cinnamon latte! Best gf toast I’ve had in 23 years! ❤
Servers ask every table if there are allergens they should be aware of for cross-contamination. Meals come out with allergen picks. Great food!!
We stopped for a coffee and ended up trying the GF brownie and turkey chili. It was so good we went back for breakfast the next morning. Food and atmosphere are great. GF bread was very dense but the GF pumpkin loaf was top notch! They were careful and noted allergy. I would definitely go back.
Absolutely loved it! My GF daughter enjoyed it and felt very safe and included. We ate there twice on our trip and both servers we had were very knowledgeable on GF menu and cross-contamination.
Tried the Public Greens Power Bowl on Thursday and absolutely loved it. I added the avocado and asked to remove the mushrooms. Mushrooms were mixed in but big enough for me to eat around them, and not a ton so I didn’t feel wasteful. This is one of only a few restaurants downtown Indy that I trust to manage my allergy properly. I went back Friday to get the Omelette You Can’t Refuse with Native GF bread. Servers are always knowledgeable and attentive to my allergy and the food comes out quick and marked.
Great breakfast/lunch spot with many options! GF waffle was great and omelette as well. All food comes marked with flags!
The waiter asked me if I had a Celiac Disease. The food came out with a red flag so I knew they took precautions. The food was AMAZING!! So many options too!
Great options and we enjoyed our meals.
So many gluten free options. Waffle was amazing. And the waitress made sure to let the kitchen know it was an allergy.
So good! They know what they’re doing over here with separate spaces for GF food prep. The waffle was heavenly, the omelette was amazing. Delicious mocha! It’s a must go in Indy
Wonderful place with great gluten free and dairy free options!
This is my favorite place to go. The staff is outstanding and knowledgeable and always make sure I feel safe eating the food here. And the food is divine!! Cannot recommend enough if you are in the Indy area!!
I loved this restaurant! The staff seemed very knowledgeable about celiac disease and cross contact. I got the waffles from a separate waffle iron- no notes. I also got an omelette with a side of potatoes (baked) and they gave me gluten free bread as well! It was such a treat to have so many GF options that were all delicious.
Me and my husband shared a make your own Omelette and a dairy free oat milk mocha. For starters, the mocha was one of the tastiest coffees we have ever had. It tasted like hot chocolate! Second, the omelette was ensured to be cooked with their cooking spray instead of butter, and they gave us gluten free toast without butter which was delicious as well. They even cut the omelette in half for us and presented it so beautifully when we said we were just going to share. Everything was delicious!
I only had one visit there and that was a sit-in for lunch. The place was busy so I took a seat at the bar. GF items were marked on the menu, though there wasn’t a lot of GF marked items for lunch. Mostly they were salads. Service was quick at the bar and the waiter was knowledgeable about celiac without explanation. Prices were somewhat high, but, as an out-of-towner, I found most everything was relatively high priced in Indianapolis. Maybe I don’t get out much… As for safety, cross contamination is possible if not probably likely. I used two GliadinX capsules with every meal I ate in the city (except one where a hotel restaurant I had to eat at had no GF options) including this one, even after reading all the reviews. I also took out another salad with meat for lunch the next day and the two meals came to just over $40.
Patachou is a staple reliable gf df spot - got the make your own omelette and they flag everything for allergies! Gf toast is from a local gf allergen free bakery - so yummy! Server went and double checked that the oat milk was certified gf as well! LOVE me some patchooochie.
super yummy!! been here twice, and the waffles taste amazing!!
Amazing food and extremely attentive. Lots of GF items.
My go to place whenever I’m in town at the Convention Center. They know allergies well and have amazing waffles (dedicated waffle maker) along with many other options. They’re able to handle cross contamination well and every member of the staff seemed trained.
I was in town for work and wanted to give this place a try because of the gluten free reviews. The service and food were fantastic. We will be back when we are in town.
Good gluten-free options, and their gluten-free sourdough bread made by a local bakery was very tasty. They were knowledgeable, and I trusted careful with my food.
Good, quick service. Accommodation for all dairy and gluten intolerances. Great food to go along with that!
Staff and Service excellent Knowledge of Gluten allergy Excellent Food Excellent, what a fantastic start to the day. The waffles are as good as previous reviews but there also other fantastic options We definitely need to walk this off
Stalked the reviews of this place. They were spot on! The gluten free waffles were so good! Even my husband agreed and he has no gluten issues.
Surprisingly offer many GF options! The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful when navigating their menu.
I got the gluten free waffles, they were great! The waiter asked if I was celiac and reassured me my food was gluten free when they brought it. They also had gluten free oat milk. Highly recommend!
I love Cafe Patachou! I have a great experience at every location. I always get the GF waffles, made on their own waffle maker. They are fantastic.
Food was excellent. So fresh and tasty. Staff was knowledgeable and helpful. Felt very confident and comfortable. Highly recommend
The waiter was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what to do when I said I had Celiac. Food was delicious!
Ordered an egg white omelette which came with a side of arugula and gluten free toast. Server was knowledgeable about gluten free (volunteered he would alert the kitchen), food was flagged with an allergy stick, and was overall delicious (gf bread was some of the best I’ve ever had!). 100% would return again.
Not dedicated gluten free but gluten free menu, dedicated waffle maker, knowledgeable staff, allergen orders are flagged. Food is always delicious and servers are amazing.
Café Patachou is a great option for anyone with food allergies. The cafe has an allergy menu available upon request. It also offers oat milk for coffee. I had the coconut curry chicken and it was wonderful.
I’ve visited several times for breakfast and lunch & each time the service and food is awesome! Personal favorites are broken yolk, yogurt and granola with fruit, turkey sandwich. The gf sourdough bread is out of this world. The pastries are also a yummy. A gem of a gf find!
Came during a busy day and was assured by the server that they could prepare celiac safe food. Ordered an egg sandwich on GF bread with a side of potatoes and was absolutely glutened. Food had the red flags of safety, but I felt like garbage for hours. Coffee was okay. Not sure I would go back.
Great GF options. The waffles were amazing!
So many options here and staff is super knowledgeable and helpful. GF toast in separate toaster (and it was delicious), GF waffles and many other options.
This place was amazing. Everything we ordered was great. My daughter loves going here when in town for a competition. So many things to choose from. We tend to share everything we get. Coffee is good too which is a plus. It can get busy when events are in town so plan accordingly
Food was great! Lots of options. Bread was delicious. I didn’t think it was gf. I would definitely go back!
knowledgeable staff, amazing atmosphere, basically any breakfast items could be gluten free. Had waffles, ourwaiter actually likes the gluten free ones better than standard.
Staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. They knew exactly what Celiac was! BEST gluten free waffles ever!!
Best gluten free waffle ever! Several choices on a well-labeled menu and server even asked if we had any allergies. The plate came out with a flag I dicating gluten-free as well. We were very impressed.

I absolutely loved this place! I got the smoked salmon bagel on gluten free sourdough bread and I was very pleasantly surprised with the bread. I also got the orange cranberry bread and it was absolutely one of the best gluten free desserts I have had. It was very moist and it wasn’t crumbly at all. This is probably the best breakfast place I have been to.
very celiac friendly, lots of great options for breakfast and lunch!
So excited a Cafe Patachou opened in Fishers!! Very safe and amazing food!
So good! They offer so many gluten free options and always ask if it is a preference or if it is celiac. Your food comes out with a little allergy flag and I have never once gotten sick in the multiple times that I have been here (I am incredibly sensitive).
Our waiter was very knowledgeable and explained what could be substituted for gf dishes. Many to choose from. Food came out with a little red flag on a tooth pick, signifying food allergy. The waiter asked if there were other allergies to be aware of. Dedicated fryer for potato fries. Sour dough bread was delicious.
***Side note, make sure you pay for parking before you leave the lot. $5 to park all day, but $20 if you fail to do so. The lot is across the street.
