Flower Child

Flew in and only 15 min from airport. Healthy and delicious! Mother earth with rice was GF and fabulous. Lots of GF options. Seating inside and outside. Will stop again when returning to the airport!

There are a lot of options for gluten free and dairy free. Menu items are marked either gluten free, vegetarian, and/or vegan. Order at the counter and they will mark allergy on the order. I am sensitive to cross contact and felt fine after eating here. Delicious too!

Many GF options but not a GF kitchen. The first time I went, they said they were able to make the Tofu and GF dishes celiac friendly. I left feeling ok, some mild cramping following.

We decided to try it again and I had a complete autoimmune reaction from the Tofu with Chopped Salad and wine although they said it was all GF and could be made celiac safe.

Have a big gluten free menu and have been here multiple times. I have gotten sick once and all I got was a salad with grilled chicken but they were very busy, I’m also very sensitive. Overall would come again just not during a rush!

Lots of gluten free options - even desserts here! I had the strawberry beet salad with chicken and it was great, though I should have gotten a cookie with it because I was definitely still hungry. Really fun, funky, and cool spot! Everyone was super nice!

Stopped here when passing thru Charlotte for GF lunch with our celiac daughter. Tons of options and the kids meals were healthy with several options (including GF mac n cheese). There were MANY GF options on their menu. We would be regulars here if we lived in the area. Quality of the food was excellent and prices were very reasonable.

Honestly this was one of the best places in charlotte I’ve eaten at so far. The food is clearly labeled what is gf, vegan, and vegetarian and I felt safe eating all of it. There are many options (including gf Mac and cheese) and yummy drinks! I have a few other allergies (fodmap) and it was easy to order around it! Anyone with any intolerances should totally come here!

Fantastic options for just about any allergy. Most of the family is gluten free, three different entrees were ordered with salmon or chicken added. In addition we got three sides and only stopped there for fear we would have ordered too much food. Even have gluten free cookies and lemon cakes.

A cute breakfast/brunch/lunch spot. It tends to be crowded but has good food and they are friendly to those with allergies. They offer lots of healthy options and were accommodating to everyone. It’s a little pricey for what you get but it is a trendy spot in south end so not too surprised by that

Pricey but very good. Clearly labeled menu. 👍🏼

Amazing salads and many other items all labeled GF and/or vegan. The GF chocolate chip cookie is so good, but they also have brownies and cakes. An excellent spot to eat safely (and bonus it's delicious).

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free mac was delicious! Very good about asking about allergies & making sure there is no cross contamination. I had no reaction.

I love this place! The staff is super knowledgeable and will answer any questions you have. They do great with allergies and most items on the menu are gluten free. I’ve ordered several things from here including Mac & cheese and enchiladas, and everything is always fresh and delicious! They also have some of the BEST chocolate chip cookies that I’ve ever eaten before (even before I was diagnosed with celiac). You definitely don’t want to miss this place.

I love Flower Child! I used to live right next to one on Lovers and it was really great. Most of their menu is gluten free too. This location is kind of iffy. The food was very subpar at this location and the staff were really negative. It was cold and overcooked. My food was all gluten free and I had no reaction, so I’m thankful for that. I got the chicken, broccoli (with no bread crumbs), and the gluten free Mac and cheese. I get this same order every time I go to Flower Child, so I know it was just a location thing. I strongly recommend this place if you’re gluten free because it’s safe and delicious, but I will definitely be using the extra gas to go to another location.

DO NOT EAT HERE! I know there may be positive reviews, but trust me, it’s not worth the risk. There’s other places in Wildwood that you can get food from. I ordered the “gluten free” Mac n cheese from Flower Child and within 2 hours was nonstop vomiting so severely that I was hospitalized for a night. This was one of the worst reactions of my whole life, and I have no idea how it happened since their Mac n cheese is allegedly supposed to be gluten free, with no non-gf version available. If you have Celiac, DO NOT EAT AT FLOWER CHILD, don’t ruin your day/week by getting glutened here!
