Yummy açaí bowls! They’re made in their own section and staff is happy to change gloves/wash hands to reduce cross contact risk. Gf granola too!

Plus, the art gallery is super fun!

Came in for an açaí bowl and they have a gf granola option! Very tasty and felt safe ordering. They also have a gf French toast at a couple locations but I’d be a little nervous about that with cross contamination with their waffles.

Small kitchen where everything is cook together. Doesn't sound like they care about cross contamination. Acai was good, but double check the Granola. Asked about big breakfast or French toast, but toast toasted with other bread and breakfast cooked where there has been other gluten. Chose not to order.

Great coffee and the açaí bowls are gluten free and they have gluten free granola if you ask!! (You have to ask). I talked to one of the ladies doing food prep on the side and she gave confident answers about gluten contamination. The açaí bowls are prepared in the back and away from the waffles and sandwiches. Ask about their smoothies as well, I figure these are likely gluten free.

The acai bowls were very good and done safely with a cleaned area and gluten free granola, however I tried to order the breakfast feast which included substituting gf toast and they were going to toast it in the same toaster. Would recommend the acai bowls but be cautious with the other gf options

Good experience. They were busy but they marked my order as gluten free and I didn’t have a reaction. Ordered the açaí bowl.

Went here for breakfast our first day. They have gluten free granola if you ask. I am also oat sensitive and I felt fine afterwards. The smoothies are also good!

Staff was very accommodating to our celiac needs and very friendly. We ordered the Açaí bowl, with GF granola. It was worth 6 stars!!!!! A little hard to find, up the escalator in the lobby to the left. It’s by the magic box office area.

Not really anything besides smoothie bowls and very rude. We got coffee at another place and didn’t even have the name of the coffee sho on the cups then we found this on the app and wanted breakfast they told me and my boyfriend that we couldn’t eat in the facility because we had coffee from somewhere other than Hawaiian aroma coffee...... fucking ridiculous we said we didn’t know about this place till after coffee he said it didn’t matter and it was like bringing food from McDonalds to Burger King.......

I had an Acai bowl with fruit and GF granola. It was SO good! Great breakfast, lunch or snack choice! Super healthy and very filling. Lady at the register I spoke with was new so a little uninformed about what was GF but was very helpful and quick to ask other staff. Only 4 stars because there wasn't much else on the menu.
