Had a veggie omelette and potato’s. Potato’s were cooked on a griddle vs fried.

Food was ok.

Gf bread products use a common toaster. They say they clean it, but I didn’t try.

Note they do not take credit cards. They do take US currency, but the exchange rate they used was not nice ($54 CAD to $48 US).

A little deceiving from the outside but the owner was great, the waitress was friendly and the food delicious. GF english muffins - their eggs benny were delish!

The waitress had celiac and told me exactly what I can/cannot eat. Was disappointed that there are no GF pancakes/waffles and no GF information on the menu. French toast is made on the same grill, so there could be cross contact. Eggs and toast were ok, nothing special.

Very disappointed with the entire experience at Scoops. The knowledge of staff was very poor regarding cross contamination. My daughter ordered gluten free toast to go alongside her breakfast, but they accidentally placed gluten toast on her plate. The server noticed when the plate was served and brought the plate back to the kitchen right away, however I then sat there and watched them just switch the toast out. The gluten toast had been sitting directly on top of her meal. They were surprised, but accommodating, when I asked them to remake the whole order. This would have been ok for me, but what made it worse was that the quality of the food Served was incredibly subpar and expensive. I would never return to this restaurant again based on our experience.

Went there for breakfast and almost all items could be made gluten free, except the waffles and pancakes. Their homefries are cooked on the griddle and even their French fries have a dedicated fryer.

I'm Celiac and this restaurant is amazing. I had eggs Benny there and it was the best I've ever eaten! And it's Gluten free, our waitress was also celiac and confirmed that celiacs are perfectly safe to eat here without worrying about cross contamination.

Excellent breakfast! I used to frequent Scoops before being diagnosed. I know they changed ownership a few years back and the new owner is Celiac. I was there today for the first time since being diagnosed, after it came up on my app as a recommendation for a safe restaurant. I identified myself as being Celiac and my waitress let me know that she, too, has CD and would ensure there was no cross contamination and that my meal would be safe for me; she got it! It was so great to be to eat without worry. I had one of the eggs Benny dishes the offer with a GF English muffin and it was so good! I definitely recommend Scoops for a delish breakfast/lunch that is GF and for their attention to food safety in order to eliminate cross contamination!

Lisa, the owner, was our waitress. She has Celiac and other sensitivities. She’s super strict about cooking things separately. She’s also very well informed on what you can and cannot eat.

Expensive for what it is. Especially when leaving hungry. However at least I’m confident I won’t get sick. When I politely expressed my disappointment they got defensive very quick. Unsure if I will go back. Even my spouse who ate the waffles (not gf) said they were very mediocre.

Owner's family member is Celiac, very knowledgeable and courteous.

They were very knowledgeable about celiac. Let me know what was safe on the menu. Had eggs Benedict for the first time since diagnosis. They use corn starch instead of wheat in the sauce.

Service was great, food was delicious! Our knowledgeable and very friendly server took us through all the gluten-free options and what to avoid. Prices were also very reasonable. Highly recommend this great place for breakfast or lunch!

Wait staff was super helpful and able to answer all my questions. They knew exactly what I could eat on the menu and had gluten free bread and gluten free English muffins. Great experience

Celiac friendly?

The owner sat us and explained what was safe on the menu. So knowledgeable. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The staff all knew what was safe to eat as well. Great breakfast in a great place. I would come back here over and over.

The food was good, the staff knew what they were doing! The owners daughter has celiac so she knows all about it!

I wish I could move this restaurant into my home town. They are fantastic, food is delicious, the staff is so nice and understanding, very educated on gluten free and cross contamination. Two thumbs up. Great place, great food

The staff treated us like family. The food was spectacular. The Philly Benedict was superb. The cranberry Benny was out of this world. This is a must go breakfast place in Niagara Falls. Run don’t walk.

The waitress was very knowledgeable about what was safe for me to eat. The food was delicious and the staff was incredibly friendly! We will definitely be returning!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They don’t have gluten-free advertised at all or GF options even listed on their menu, but I had seen it on here so I asked. They were extremely knowledgeable about cross contamination, what everything was made with. They have GF bread/toast, English muffins, hollandaise sauce, GF French toast, GF eggs Benedict. No waffles or pancakes. I got the English muffin sandwich and it was delicious! I would 100% eat here again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

If you are in the area, you have to eat here. Owner is SO AWESOME and knowledgeable about the food. Delicious diner food. This will be a must stop on any return trip for us.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

When I first walked in I was nervous because it has a diner vibe and the menus say nothing about gluten. That said, when I talked to the waitress I immediately felt at ease. She was familiar with cross contamination, and she knew what sauces they make gluten free (they have gf Hollandaise!!!!!), instead of thinking that gf means gf bread. She knew that I couldn't have the French fries but the hash browns were fine because they're cooked on the grill and no gluten items are cooked on it. The food was pretty typical diner food. Tasty, greasy, satisfying.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They do not have gluten free pancakes. They have bread and English muffins. Eggs were dry. Sausage was good. Potatoes could be fried and we're good. They did not take credit cards or have American money for change.

Absolutely fantastic breakfast!! GF Eggs Benedict!!! Wowza!! Next time I'm in Niagara Falls I will definitely come back here

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ate here this morning. Soooo good. Had an English muffin, eggs and home fries and French toast and was so so happy. The owner was Amazing and friendly LOVED!

Bacon and eggs and hashbrowns and a gf English muffin - can be very hard to find sometimes, and was just what I needed.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing local place. Exxellent turkey and cranberry benny. Lots of bennys and more to choose from. Great fruendly staff.

Great selection of gluten free options and GF English muffins to go with their eggs Benedict menu! Very nice atmosphere as well. It was clean and the wait staff was very, very friendly and knowledgeable.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Went for breakfast with my family. The staff was so nice and food was great! So happy they had many gluten free options, my son has celiac and even him just being able to have toast with his eggs and bacon was great. Will be returning every time we visit Niagara with the family.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

staff knew about the menu items and even why i could not have certain things. they had a whole list of eggs benedict i could have (and it was phenomenal) along with fruit, bacon, toast and more!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Owner’s daughter is celiac so they are very aware of cross contamination - they have both gf English muffins and toast (plus a dedicated toaster), eggs Benedict are all gf except except one, and home fries are safe! Great options and a family diner feel

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Waitress was VERY helpful. There’s no actually gluten free menu but they have SO many good gluten free breakfast options. I got the muffin sandwich and French toast because I couldn’t decide between the two. They also have an amazing eggs Benedict menu completely gluten free hollendaise sauce that is also gf. If you’re in the area it is a must try!!

Celiac friendly?
