El Mercury is awesome!! Really delicious food, almost everything is GF, maybe only churros aren’t. Woman owned restaurant, excellent food. I am a frequent customer - can’t recommend more highly!

The vast majority of the menu is gluten free, and they are very knowledgeable about cross contamination. The only non-GF menu items are the churros, which are prepared in a separate fryer. The food is delicious and by personal experience celiac friendly. Pretty sensitive and have eaten here multiple times.

Celiac friendly?

Fan-freakin-tastic. Taquitos, something we’ve never had, were delicious and the cheesy rice side was awesome.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Really good food. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Only the churros contain gluten and they keep them separate from the other food. Never had a problem when I’ve eaten here and the food is delicious!

Good food. Served fast and online menu clearly labels GF food.

Everything gluten free except churros. Lots of options and also delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing Guatemalan food. Unlike any other food I’ve had in Philly. Everything savory on the menu is gluten-free and made in its own fryer. Tons of choices for me as a vegetarian as well, and the food is filling - no more boring grilled vegetable salad bowls for me now that El Merkury is in town!! Everything tastes fresh and high quality, including the Guatemalan chocolate. YUM.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Everything except for the churros (which are fried in its own fryer) is gluten free and made toOrder!

El Merkuy provides Central American Street foods. They have Toquitos, Pupusas, and Tostada's, salads, and sides. The chrros are the only thing not gluten free.
