Gluten-Free at Cafe Yumm

Just got takeout and asked for gluten free and careful care for celiac and halfway through I could tell it wasn’t. 😟 super bloated now, tummy feels hot. I called, the woman I spoke with really nice and assured me she made my dish personally… even cooked my tofu in a separate pan. No gluten in anything I had. Idk how that happened but it did.

With gluten and dairy allergies, this is my go to place at the Portland Airport. I've ordered their various Yumm bowls for years, and was happy to see they've expanded their breakfast offerings, to include these Yumm Rancheros. If you don't eat cheese they'll sub avocado, which I love. The photo shows how it looked before I mixed it all up, and it's served on corn tortillas. The ordering process is quick, the help is friendly, the food quality is high and they'reallergy aware. Thumbs up!

Went in to order, asked if the sauce was gluten free and explained that I have Celiac. Was told that it is but that there was no way they could guarantee that there would be no cross contamination.

I’ve been eating here consistently for over a year, and have never experienced a problem. I’m pretty sensitive, and so far, no issues. A great option for healthy take out. Whole, filling options for carnivores, and vegans alike, too.

I used to be able to go here. Unfortunately, the last two times I have tried to eat here I have gotten next level sick from their food, in the middle of my work day.

I should have known the last time I ordered. I placed my typical order with all the noted allergies vegan, and no Yumm Sauce and the order came out with Yumm Sauce on top. I took it back and they said they would remake it but did not want to remake the order or confirm the allergies (since that is easier tha explaining celiac). I insisted and mentioned that the reason for my insistence was that cross-contamination or a lack of glove change and preparation precaution would lead to a reaction for me. They clearly did not understand or take precautions.

I was sick within the next hour and then for the next week.

Sad to say I will not eat here again. It isn’t worth it.

So delicious and wonderful! I got the medium original bowl without sour cream and cheese, as I am dairy free too. She asked if I wanted cabbage and carrots, so I said yes to that! Special tray for prep, saw them using a disposable cup to scoop ingredients, marked my ticket as a gluten allergy, AND verbally told staff. Soooo good safe and feeling great. Just go online and google “gluten free cafe yumm” and there’s a whole article on the website to help you out. Go!

When I asked if I could get a particular dish with gluten allergy/celiac precautions she immediately smiled and said “sure!” then followed through, marking it on the ticket and verbally notifying the kitchen. It is so nice to be able to get safe food before a flight.

They were able to make a kids quesadilla on corn tortillas for my 12 year old who has Celiac. They marked her order as gluten allergy & I was told that some of the staff preparing food alado have Celiac, so they are very careful. Lots of other GF options as well. Located in Gate C

One time I was ordering and I said I had a gluten allergy - the person taking my order was like “I’m pretty sure everything here is gluten free” then turned around and asked her manager and the look she gave her was enough for me to trust management at least to oversee proper cross-contamination preparation. The sauce is amazing, i’ve been buying bottles of it since before my diagnosis and it’s one of the few places I can trust for “low energy” ordering - I don’t have to babysit them or explain what celiac is for them to be able to make my food safely.

I had their original rice bowl, which was quite tasty. The service was friendly and relaxed. The only disappointing thing was that the awesome looking cookies, half dipped in chocolate, are not GF. This is a good place for a quick rice bowl lunch; with a variety of options if you are with a large group of people.

I absolutely love Cafe Yumm! When my celiac family and I order, we make sure to tell the servers we have a gluten allergy, which means they follow a special protocol against cross-contamination. The food is yummy and we haven’t gotten sick. We’d recommend the Hot and Jazzy bowl!

The cashier lied to me when I asked if everything was gluten free. She simply stated “yes” which should have been my warning. I will accept some blame for being naive. This was my first trip to Seattle and the excitement of having gluten free options kind of had me being too trusting with trying new places. I thought I had read that this place was 100%. They are not. The cashier even told me the wraps were gluten free so that is what I ordered. THE WRAPS ARE NOT GLUTEN FREE. I do not recommend this place for those with celiac disease.

The staff was very knowledgeable about gluten allergies and had a menu outlining what was gluten free. Overall, great experience and great food

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was knowledgeable about gf and dairy free options. I was offered substitutions for dairy ingredients. Good, but portion size was smaller than anticipated and explained by staff. No problems with the classic bowl with tofu.

Great Service, but over priced and menu did not specify toppings. If you're thinking Chipotle, don't go here. Food was cold.

Food was lukewarm, & it didn’t taste that good overall. But the Chilean zucchini stew had a good flavor. And it was pretty pricey. We won’t be coming back here.

Staff was not knowledgeable, but I spoke with the manager and was given a GF menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
