Review of The Collins Quarter

We have been here twice. Last year (2021) we came while on vacation and my husband (the Celiac) got the breakfast sandwich on their GF bread. We stressed GF needs to the waitress and she was super helpful, and we had a lovely experience.

This year (2022) we came back to kick off our vacation with that same breakfast sandwich. We told the waitress he had Celiac, so we needed the gluten-free bread, and to please follow allergy precautions. It was super tasty just like last year, and we considered coming back again during our trip for that breakfast sandwich...until the glutening symptoms kicked in after leaving the restaurant.

I can't tell you how disappointing it has been for both of us that we began our vacation with this place, now that he's been sick for the past few days and we've had to cancel other vacation plans so he could stay at the Airbnb to deal with nausea, fatigue, crippling anxiety, and awful heartburn, all thanks to gluten. My advice is to learn how to make a breakfast sandwich at home, drive an hour to a dedicated GF facility if you need to, or to go here with extreme caution and grill the waitress EXTENSIVELY about cross contact before you consume anything (we are guessing they used the regular toaster). I guess our guard was down after a good experience last time, but saying "gluten allergy" should've been enough for this not to have happened. We probably won't be back after this.
