I tend to get a salad when I go, but the owner is often there and will go above and beyond to get your order safe. He did say that their gluten free menu is outdated, but then he handed me a regular menu and was willing to make me just about anything gluten free that he could. He asked about a million questions the first few times I went to make sure he got it right (which I appreciate greatly)! Now I get basically the same thing every time, but we know it’ll always be safe! Note: it’s SO busy at breakfast/lunch and practically empty at dinner time.

Minis cafe offers plenty of regular options for those with gluten allergies such as meatloaf, roasted chicken, and all day breakfast. To my surprise Mimi’s Cafe does have gluten free toast for breakfast and although it’s not specified on the menu they do have gluten free French toast upon request. They also have gluten free bread for the French dip. I’m not quite sure how the French onion soup is made but it doesn’t seem to be a problem. Just the toast in the soup but the soup itself is delicious

Very disappointed after reading good reviews. We went for brunch on Sunday. I asked waitress about GF options. She did not offer a menu, she said they don’t have GF bread and so much of their menu has bread or pastries/baked goods for brunch. Not even GF pancakes. Ended up getting side item of eggs and sausage.
