Their FB pages lists hours and days differently than this app. I sent a FB msg to them asking to confirm hours. Friday 6-8pm and Sunday 8am-8pm is the reply I received. CLOSED all other days of the week. Owner replied to me within same evening, very friendly, even asked if anything in particular we'd like to have when we come. I would definitely recommend messaging this business ahead of time to check hours. This site may want to update their hours. We plan to go tomorrow! Will update after our visit!

Beware that the pizza is very small and that it might be charred at the bottom.

Very Friendly! Food was delicious and had the best burger bun I had ever tried (gluten free). Also had GF ice cream cones and cookies and cream ice cream which was amazing since it is very hard to find gluten free cones. Highly recommend!!!!!

Small mom & pop operation. Often beaten path, but worth the trip. Most items are made to order, so not fast food. But you can kill time playing the free miniature golf course. They also have a bait shop, kayak rentals, firewood, and camp supplies.

We tried going and it was closed. Not sure if it’s for good or just closed. their sign said it was open m-f 8a-8p

Safe food- takes a bit for food to be ready but worth it. Very quirky location with friendly owners! Dessert is delish as well. Try the gf apple pie or gf cookies and cream ice cream!

Delicious and safe spot for Celiacs. Perfect place to find after we had been backpacking. The flat bread pizza was great, they make their own crust. We had a delicious burger with their homemade bun.. A bit crumbly but soft and very tasty. The fajita/tacos were good. The garlic balls were like Brazilian cheese balls, & were a great appetizer. The ice cream was delicious! HOMEMADE and in a cone. They're open Fri-sun! Check them out

Gluten free kitchen & it's delicious!

100 Gluten Free. Quaint little outdoor restaurant. Good but nothing fancy.

We had a delicious gluten free meal and will be sure to return when we are back in the area. Family owned and had the opportunity to visit with the family. Enjoyable evening meal AND pleasant conversation with the family.

Wonderful!!! Well worth the drive. It takes a while for them to prepare your food because they have a great selection and make it to order. Please support these folks. I hope they stay so we can enjoy every year when we visit MI! We ordered extra meals to have later in the week and they were very thoughtful in letting us know just how to best serve and re-prepare.

Awesome! I've ate here twice now, both times amazing food! It is almost an hour from where we stay (silver lake sand dunes) but well worth the drive! I don't have to worry about getting sick, and you have plenty of options to choose from, including AMAZING desserts!!!

I brought an extra cooler with me this trip so I could bring back a few meals :)

100% dedicated gf outdoor cafe. We frequent every yr while staying in Ludington. You wait quite awhile for your food but folks it's worth the drive. Play putt putt while you wait. Lasagna dinner is AWESOME. Best gf cake ever is included. I don't have to triple-think everything on the menu. Nice! Bring the whole gang & they won't even know they're eating gf. Ma & Pa cook like a gluten-free boss!

Very quirky, peculiar place. Though it's awesome that they have a big menu and it's 100% GF there, it's out in the middle of nowhere and everything is cooked in a tiny little trailer intended for carnivals and fairs. Others have commented on how slow they are, so with that in mind, we just asked to buy some pre-made things to go, such as doughnuts and cinnamon rolls. Even that took 20 minutes and we were the only people there. We love to support dedicated GF businesses but this one makes it very hard for even locals to support them.

Great friendly service, excellent food! I do not eat gluten and also took my niece who has Celiac. The whole family went and even the gluten-eaters loved it :-) Definitely was worth the trip! Had the lasagna dinner and the brownie sundae- yum!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Oh. My. Lord. My only complaint is that it took awhile to get our food. But who on EARTH cares. Worth it.

Took my dad who is not gf. We had donut holes (glazed) to take home, a soft pretzels with cheese (I hadn't had one in YEARS), and I had the lasagna dinner. My dad had chili cheese dogs with onion. I tasted everything - and it was ALL amazing. So, SO good. Go here.

Outstanding! So nice to be able to eat out with no worries. I tried both the taco and Hawaiian pizza and they were delicious. Went again and had the lasagna dinner, which was fabulous!

We were staying in Manistee decided to give them a try. We had the lasagna dinner and chili cheese fries. The dinner had a salad, garlic bread and chocolate cake included. It was excellent!! The best gluten free cake I have ever had. The fries were outstanding. Had pizza and soft pretzels with cheese the next day. Great! I would call first and place order before you go. They just opened and it takes a little while for the food. But well worth it! Very nice people.

Run by a family that has Celiac Disease and knows how to be Gluten Free. Everything on the menu is gluten free! SO GOOD YOU CAN'T TELL IT'S GLUTEN FREE!
