Thought it would be safe because of the reviews and they flagged my allergy on the receipt. However, there was broccoli in my bowl, which from there isn’t gf bc of bread crumbs. I understand you always run a risk but just wanted to share my experience. Kinda disappointed especially for the price

My go-to favorite item , the Glow Bowl, is no longer available! I felt very safe eating here but now my choices are much more limited. Anyone else out there miss the Glow Bowl?

Used to be a go to for me. I ordered something that I've order a lot before and it made me VERY sick. When I let them know the response was, "yeah, that can happen here." Food is tasty and healthy, but seems mostly good for 'gluten-light' or gluten free preference folks, not Celiacs.

We enjoyed this cute restaurant and found it thanks to this app. I loved the Mother Earth bowl which had an explosion of flavors from ancient grains, sweet potatoes, avocado, cucumber and more. You could opt to add protein to any dish, sustainable salmon, grass fed steak, natural chicken or tofu. My Celiac teen loved the mac and cheese with chicken and hubby opted for a chicken plate with brown rice and fruit. So many gfree options and the cookie was delicious, too!! Wish they had a location in Illinois. They had alcohol options and homemade kombucha.

Great, healthy food, much of it GF. Brought my Celiac daughter here, and she had the GF mac and cheese, steak and broccoli with parmesan, and she LOVED it! No reaction! They have GF cookies, muffins and awesome brownies. They take Celiac seriously, just make sure to tell them when ordering.

Neat place. Lots of gf options. Menu was clearly marked and waitstaff knowledgeable. I split the enchiladas (very good) and Peruvian chicken ( just ok). Mango green tea was delicious. Definitely will return. A bit pricey.

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!
