My server was knowledgeable and made a note that I had an allergy. My pancake was large, delicious, and gluten-free. Home fries are gluten-free and there is a gluten-free bread option. The food is delicious! I recommend it.

After my daughter with celiac started eating her “gluten free pancake” the waitress came over, looked hard at the pancake and then said, “that’s not gluten free”. My daughter started crying and we will NOT be going back!

Not safe for anyone with Celiac. Was misinformed in the past. They do not understand cross contamination. They use the same toaster and waffle iron for all. They only wipe off the grill before using it for gluten free food. Very disappointing because my family loved eating here.

Although they have a lot of gluten free options, I did not feel comfortable eating here. They use the same grill for all food, and while they say they clean it before cooking gluten free food, this consists of scrapping it off and rinsing with water. I would have felt comfortable if they had a designated “gluten free” spot on the grill for eggs, etc. separate from where they cook pancakes but this is not the case. They do have a designated gluten free toaster, but other than that their cross-contact protocol seems inadequate. After discussing with the waitress, I did not feel comfortable eating here. Disappointing for a place that advertises gluten-free options on the front window.

This is the first negative review I have written on this site here are bullets points, it would take too long My gf dairy free French toast with a big glib of butter on the plate the butter was actually bigger than the 2 end pieces I was given the waitress replaced the toast I was not given the real maple syrup I ordered can't eat the fake stuff. As usual, you get overcharged in general for having allergies then the bill came, the 7 dollar French toast was 9 dollars, and the extra egg was 2.50, not 2 before my wife could ask the waitress said, yeah yeah the menu says, prices subject to change, what since I ordered nobody tgere cared we were an inconvenience to them forget potentially dangerous circumstances

Breakfast all day! They offer GF pancakes, toast, waffles, and french toast. The waitress asked if I had an allergy when ordering, as the kitchen takes it very seriously. Everything was delicious and I felt great!!

I ordered the gf French toast and it was amazing!! The best gf French toast I’ve had, and they were very considerate about my celiac. Someone separate from my waitress brought out my meal (I’m guessing a manager or chef) to keep it separate. I’m definitely coming here again!

Took my celiac toddler to breakfast. Mickey Mouse gluten free pancakes for the win. Knowledgeable staff and great atmosphere. I tried the pancake too and it was great. The staff did comment on avoiding the home fries as there was risk for cross contamination. I appreciated that.

Staff is terrific, food is delicious & they understand celiac.

Only downside was the radio was so loud I had difficulty having a conversation with my friends. Sadly unless they fix that, I will not go back.

I don’t know if I came on an off day, but the pancakes and waffles were not good :( pancakes were undercooked and the waffle was soggy. We also waited over an hour for the food to come out. Didn’t get sick so that’s the only plus.

I am confused by the other reviews that raved about this place, it is the main reason why I drove out of my way to try it, because unfortunately I was extremely disappointed. I did not get sick from eating here but the pancakes and French toast were the worst I have ever had and I have eaten at many breakfast places and had both that were really good and hard to tell they were even GF. I ordered the Nutella pancakes and the cannoli French toast. Both were over powered by too much Nutella and chocolate. The pancakes were nothing like pancake consistency, they were very dry and cake like. I couldn’t even eat 1/2 of 1 pancake. The French toast was supposed to be stuffed with sweet ricotta cheese but there was hardly any and because they put so much chocolate I couldn’t even taste what was on there. The only good part about this place are the girls that work there but I will definitely not be going back.

Fantastic restaurant and service. Had eggs Benedict on GF toast and sauce was GF as well. The home fries could be cross contamination, so the gave me hash browns, yummy. GF pancake good as well. Hubby loved his non-gf breakfast as well.
