Ordered eggs, toast, home fries. They have udi’s bread! The manager came over and asked if I was celiac and made sure the kitchen knew it was an allergy and I feel good so far!

I got the GF pancakes from this location. Several people communicated with me regarding my gluten allergy and made sure I was provided with the upmost attention regarding my order. Absolute gem!

The GF Chocolate Chip, Pecan, and Coconut Pancakes were absolutely delicious. The Build Your Own Omelette was also delicious and very filling. The service was quick and very friendly. Definitely recommend!

Waitress knew what was gluten free, and that I was a celiac, well educated. I got cinnamon bun pancakes and hash browns… absolutely delicious. Going again ASAP

Review
You can get most any of the pancakes gluten free! I had cinnamon bun pancakes and did not get sick.
There could be more marking on other menu BUT my main thing is pancakes so I was happy with that. Plate comes out different and they are knowledgeable on what else you can get besides pancakes.

Review
They had a wide variety of breakfast foods. I got the pancakes and eggs. The pancake and the scrambled eggs were very good. The manager came out and informed me that the grill was cleaned. I would definitely come back again!
Review
Gluten free pancakes are delicious and they are very knowledgeable about cross contamination. I've eaten here many times and have never had an incident. Also, they now serve wine with dinner at the very reasonable $4/glass. :)

Excellent chocolate chip pancakes that my 12yo celiac son enjoyed! Manager came over to table to explain how pancakes are cooked and assured us he would personally speak to chef about our order. I would definitely go back again!

They say it’s gluten free and promise they are doing everything right, but I was absolutely glutened at this location. Maybe Chips in general is safe, but not this restaurant.

Review
Poor experience at this Chips restaurant and we have visited several others in the state with never an issue. My daughter ordered gluten free Cinnabon pancakes explaining she needs food to be gluten free as well as hash browns and bacon. I should have known better when I asked for cream for my ice coffee and the waitress never brought it. When she put down pancakes and I had inquired again if gluten free she assured me they were. They in fact were NOT!!! Not fun to have to sit by your child and hold her hair back because she was GLUTENED!!!
