My aunt is GF and has been here many times. There seem to be quite a few options if you have no other food restrictions. Unfortunately, I'm also egg-free, so that obviously decreases my options to almost none. I got the Traditional Breakfast with GF toast subbed, but I requested extra meat instead of the eggs that normally come with it. Got bacon, sausage, and hashbrowns. It was nice to be able to eat a decent breakfast at a restaurant! I realized afterwards that I didn't ask if the GF toast contained egg, but I didn't notice any symptoms, so I think it's fine.

Been here 3 times on different trips up north and have never been sick. This last time they accidentally gave me regular toast with my omelette but once I explained myself they remade the whole thing for me. The waitress did confirm that they use a separate toaster for gluten free bread.

Items were not marked as gluten free. Very limited GF items. Customer needs to be very clear about what they order. There was a mix up with the GF order. Omelet had to be made over again. They had GF toast to go with omelet. They were not sure about whether hash browns were GF so I gave them to a nonceliac friend.

Generous breakfast! Servers were very helpful, pleasant and understanding of the importance of serving gluten free! Unlike the people in the next booth who looked at me like I had 2 heads. The service was quick & attentive, many omelet choices and the food & coffee was so good.

Cute little spot next to the Holiday Inn Express offers breakfast and lunch options. Come early or be ready for a bit of a wait. The food is very good—creative omelette and sandwich options. GF bread available for toast.
