Have been eating breakfast meals here for years and have always had excellent service and accommodations for having Celiac disease. There isn't a dedicated menu but it's not hard to pick standard menu items and adjust for wheat.

Previous reviews of this place are not fairly representative of the quality.
As far as the gluten on the menu, they don’t have a separate menu. The hostess was unsure of gluten contamination questions, so she got the manager to come answer our questions while waiting for a table.
He knew all about the products containing gluten, and he was very clear about what they can make gluten free and where cross contamination could happen. From that conversation:
- they don’t do GF pancakes because of the difficulty with quality and because of the cross contamination with the other products on the griddle.
- they have GF waffles, but they don’t have a separate waffle iron. They clean it and try to prevent cross contamination, but it could happen. He was very open and direct about that.
- they have GF bread and use a dedicated toaster for it. Any hot sandwiches ordered GF will be toasted rather than put on the griddle.
We had the waffle. We aren’t celiac, so the cross contamination wasn’t an issue. The waffle was light and fluffy and was a really good GF waffle. We also had the GF toast; no complaints there, either.
Our breakfast was good. It’s not drive-across-Atlanta-for-it great, but we would come back if we are in/around Woodstock. They people were nice. The manager came by several times to make sure our allergy issues were addressed.
If you’re celiac, it may not be as great as it could be. But for people with less severe gluten allergies/sensitivity, it’s a solid option for a good meal.

Very nice staff but the GF pancakes tasted like dense potatoes. Not light or fluffy. Not enjoyable. The eggs were good though.

They claim to have a gluten free waffle but it is cooked in the same waffle maker as normal waffles. Beware!! The server told me eggs & bacon would be safe so I got that instead.
No
Staff was knowledgeable enough to know that many items are not true gluten-free, but rather gluten-friendly. I ordered eggs Benedict and had the English muffin swapped for tomato slices with the potatoes. No problems with manager or staff making my food as requested. Love this place!
I love this place. BEST PLACE EVER
Yes
They have "gluten friendly" options, but are cross-contaminated by using same cooking utensils. They tried doing something for me, but the manager said they were too busy to make something on the menu for me and that their kitchen staff were falling apart. What a terrible excuse. Quite embarrassing. Will not recommend.
No
Has a somewhat wide variety of Gluten Free Options, and the staff is knowledgeable. They are making progress attempting to get more Gluten Free Foods
Yes
Sadly no gluten free options and after checking with the kitchen was told everything would be prepared on shared griddles and surfaces.

Had an omelette and breakfast potatoes that were delicious! Website stated they had GF bread but upon arrival they did not have it. Server was knowledgeable about gluten free diet. Best omelette in town!

If you don’t have celiac or severe allergies than this would be ok for you. I have a severe gluten allergy and dairy allergy and everything is cooked on the same grill. They are unwilling to put tinfoil down or clean anything to accommodate. There is “gluten free” options but they’re all cooked on as things containing gluten. They don’t have any oil, just butter. The management wasn’t helpful and was annoyed by my questions as to what I could safely eat. The waitress was kind but not knowledgeable.

I was able to get a breakfast sandwich on GF bread; it came with a side of cheese grits. You can essentially change out any item with bread on the menu for GF bread. The taste was good for the very low price. Service was fast and friendly.
