I found the GF menu here to be very pleasing. Pancakes, waffles, French toast. Plus, other GF options. Nice breakfast spread for those of us who are sensitive to gluten. I would like to note that I didn’t experience any cross contamination.

Food wasn’t great. Probably safe. Didn’t get sick. Portion was small. But expensive. Service wasn’t great. Wouldn’t come back.

Staff were able to accommodate and were very helpful when I asked about ingredients in their GF wraps (Lunch Menu). I said it is an allergy and the chef had no issue with cleaning off an area and using different equipment. Better to come earlier in the day to avoid crowds and the risk cross-contamination that comes with a busy business.

Wait staff is super friendly & willing to check on multiple allergies. GF bread is locally made & only a $0.50 up charge with your meal (not $3 side price). They had a gf burrito which I don’t see often. It is a “rotating server” so you have multiple ppl helping throughout the meal. They do have an espresso machine but only flavor is hazelnut.

Wow, this place is great! Our server was very knowledgeable and wasn’t afraid to go ask her manager if she wasn’t 100% certain something was GF which I am very grateful for. I had the chicken Caesar in a GF wrap

The staff was very knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to ask the kitchen which adjustments could be made. I ended up going with the stuffed French toast with strawberries and cream cheese. They put two allergy warnings on my ticket which was awesome. The Wake Up coffee cocktail was wonderful.

I was so happy I found this place on the app. We were staying in Charlotte for just one night and struggled with GF options. They can make their pancakes, waffles, and French toast GF. They also have toast options. Very high sanitation rating, also

Had the gluten-free waffle that is supposed to come with powdered sugar and fruit compote. I ordered this through Postmates, and since it was being delivered I asked for the fruit to be on the side. The fruit did come on the side however it was a very sparse amount of fruit. The waffle was decent, had a bit of an odd aftertaste. If you order turkey bacon be sure to ask for it to be well done as mine was very soggy/sloppy.

The menu has a disclaimer that they cook food in the same area as other food and they are just gluten-friendly. We were about to leave when the waitress came to our table. She said they would clean the surfaces and utensils used to limit contamination. We stayed and ordered the gluten free pancakes and French toast. Both were excellent and we are feeling fine.

The gluten free pancakes were the best we’ve ever had. They also offer GF French toast & GF waffles. We are not celiac so not sure if it’s 100% celiac friendly, but staff was fully aware of Gf needs

I ate here for breakfast. Yes, this restaurant had gluten free breakfast options- gluten free French toast, white/multigrain and cinnamon raisin toast and pancakes. While this is more than most, I was disappointed and frustrated because the French toast and pancakes both contained dairy in the batter. The breakfast potatoes were covered in butter. As I know a lot of people with gluten issues have dairy issues too, I wanted to mention this. Also, the restaurant felt like a chain. It was very plain and cheap feeling. Not a great cozy breakfast/brunch spot. However, they did have gluten free options for breakfast.

Ordered gluten free French Toast. Regular was delivered. I was told because there are new people, but the reciept clearly ordered incorrectly. Spending my hard earned money somewhere else. Service was poor.

I don't believe they took steps to prevent cross contamination. I got the gf french toast and sausage. In less than an hour it was like I had taken a laxative.

I stopped by for a takeout order, and I LOVED the Reuben on GF multi grain bread. The hostess took my order and understood the precautions that would need to be taken. She ensured that the kitchen was verbally notified in addition to noting it in the order. The Reuben was delicious, and I had no issues.
