Barely any options, not helpful I won't be back

Server acted like gf questions were an inconvenience. She never once smiled. Portions were small and prices quite high. I won't go back

Food is great and the restaurant is very careful with cross contamination. The staff could use a little education though and can be a little pricey.

Food is okay. Decent selection of gluten free omelettes. Potatoes are always mediocre, get fruit instead.

Excellent and quite a variety, reasonably priced.

I've safely eaten at many First Watchs? First Watches? anyway... I mainly go for avocado toast, but they have many GF options on their GF menu.

Not safe, at all.

Although they offer gluten free bread, as a substitute, I opted for no bread at all. I told the server that i was gluten free.

The omelet came with toast on top.

I returned it to the kitchen. When the runner brought it back she said that luckily one just came off the grill. Given that, I told her how strange that it also came with crumbs from the last plate. THEN she asked if it was an allergy. I responded, Do I need to share my entire medical history for a breakfast, as ordered?

Long story short.. the runner lied to me, was disrespectful and was happy to gluten me.

I will not be back.

There’s an allergen menu that you have to scan on your phone. They have a dedicated GF space in the back (including a toaster). There’s a reasonable amount of stuff to order as long as you get the GF toast. I didn’t experience in cross contamination and the staff seems knowledgeable.

Several decent selections for breakfast/lunch and good safety measures. GF bread/toast available for breakfast or sandwiches, and they said can do gf French toast with it (which we haven’t tried). I asked about butter and they said gf toast always comes no-butter, which made me happy for kitchen safety. Eggs and bacon were good, and lots of gf omelet options. Grain bowls also gf using quinoa.
