The Cotton Cafe

Staff was not knowledgeable at all, did not seem to take gf questions seriously, I ended up just drinking water while my husband got something to eat. There were a lot of “I don’t know” answers. Do not recommend.

Celiac friendly?

No

Our server swore up and down that their black bean burger was gluten free because she chooses to eat gluten free and she gets it all the time. After asking her several times to double check, she comes back and let’s me know the black bean burger does, in fact, have bread crumbs in it. She then asks whether I have celiac disease and after I explained that I did she says, “oh my god I wish I had celiac it’s such a healthy way to eat and then I couldn’t cheat on my diet!” After my whole table pick their jaws off of the floor, I order a sandwich on gluten free bread and go over the whole gluten free procedure because I could tell she wasn’t concerned about getting me sick. I also ask for my bread to be toasted in a pan, and if not I toasted bread would be fine. My sandwich came back toasted in their regular toaster and I wasn’t told this until after I ate some of it and proceeded to have a reaction. Incredibly poorly trained staff.

Celiac friendly?

No

Love the vibe here and the food is amazing. Hands down the best gluten free cupcakes I have ever had. They have gluten free bread you can sub for all of their sandwiches.
