They DO NOT offer anything GF. When asked if they could prepare eggs or bacon safely their answer was “No”. They did find a way to get me a bowl of fruit and cottage cheese. Luckily the waitress caught the cook that was making waffles before he contaminated my fruit bowl with his gloves.

I tried going here, but the waitress did not know what was GF. I tried asking questions, but her answers did not make me feel confident in eating there. Perhaps she was just not educated on what GF is/means. Hopefully other people have better luck!

They didn’t seem to know much about gluten free. I tired to pick foods that wouldn’t contain gluten but learned the hard way I wasn’t successful.

I have Celiac and I’ve never gotten sick from eating here. The staff is always fantastic about being careful with my allergy needs. I usually get a Farmer’s Skillet with fresh fruit.

I only order omelets, fruit, and yogurt. It’s the only options I know on the menu that should be gluten free. They don’t accommodate gluten allergies so it’s not safe from cross contamination.

When I asked my waitress what was gluten free, she said nothing. I was disappointed she didn't ask someone or put any effort in. So I just had to ask about every individual item I thought about ordering. They do have some options! I had the Baja omelet with fresh fruit and the low fat yogurt. I’m not sure how safe it was, and I feel lucky I didn’t get sick. Don’t recommend for people with celiac like me

Ate here not too long ago and it was yummy. They do not have a designated gluten free kitchen so there is a chance for cross contamination but I just told them I had an allergy and they were careful. I got one of there scrambles and it was delicious and didn’t cause any problems for me. They did have a gluten free menu they offered me

I have eaten at this establishment 20+ times since moving to the area several years ago. They do have a dedicated griddle for the eggs, meats, and potato items. The meat items like the sausage and bacon are cooked earlier in the morning, and kept in a warmer until they are plated. Eggs are cooked to order, and potato Items( home fries are the only ones I've eaten) I *think are cooked earlier in day also. I haven't had any reactions to the regular items I order, which is usually two eggs over medium, with bacon, plain home fries( no added toppings) and a side of cottage cheese.

I called Jimmy's egg, to see if they do gluten free foods, the lady that I spoke to, didn't even know what gluten was, and I went ahead and ate there, and about 5 minutes after my mom and I left, I got sick to my stomach and got a really bad headache, I don't recommend eating here if you can't have gluten. They use the same spachla they use to flip pancakes and french toast. It's just not safe to eat here if you can't have gluten.

I called and asked the manager (who was very nice and helpful) what I could eat and gave her the rundown, and after explaining that I have celiac she said it would not be safe for me to eat there. I appreciate her honesty but obviously did not make a trip there based on her advice - not safe.

No gf menu, but accommodating. There was one seasoned waitress that was very knowledgeable. There is one griddle that's safe for gf eggs and omelets. There were a few sides that were gf too (cottage cheese, yogurt, etc). Didn't get sick and I am very sensitive.

If you have celiac don't go here. There is not much you can get. Every thing is fixed on the same grill as pancakes and fries are fried in the same frier as breaded things. Won't be going back.

Based on previous reviews, I thought I’d be able to eat here. I asked the waitress and she was unsure, so she went and asked the manager. She came back and said they are not gluten free and I cannot eat anything. I explained how they could cook eggs, meat, etc. on a safe area of the grill, and they basically said they don’t want to accommodate. So I sat and watched my friends eat and then went to eat elsewhere by myself.

This location does not gluten free pancakes, waffle, or bread of any type. Eggs and hash browns were good but beyond that and fruit there is no other gluten free options.

The waitress pointed me to the lighter menu when asked about gluten free. Couldn't tell me if things were cooked separately or not. Digestive enzymes for all just in case šŸ˜”

I'm a highly sensitive Celiac who has eaten here at least 20 times (according to the loyalty app they offer) and never gotten sick. They do not have a dedicated gluten-free menu, but the staff is more than willing to answer questions about the kitchen.

They have three separate flat-tops for pancakes/French toast, (gluten free) eggs and (gluten free) potatoes. Their meats are also gluten free and share cooking space with either the eggs or potatoes.

Although Jimmy's Egg does not have a gluten free menu, the waitress assured me that the eggs and meat were cooked separately from the pancakes. The waitress seemed knowledgeable about gluten intolerance.

One of our regular breakfast spots. As mentioned by another poster the pancakes and other gluten items are on a separate griddle from the eggs and potatoes. I do well with an omelet or skillet, and sub in fruit or cottage cheese for the bread item.

Doesn't have a "gluten free" menu, but staff was very knowledgeable in pointing out what was basically gluten free. Also, let us know that a the basic gluten free items were kept away from the breads, pancakes etc. they use a separate flat top for the potatoes and veggies. Overall it was good, nice variety and I didn't get sick.

The skillets can be made gluten free. My husband is gluten sensitive and has never had a problem.

The waitress was very friendly and even showed us a company email on what was good to eat gluten free. They were aware of cross contamination and they cook meat, eggs, potatoes and pancakes on separate cook tops. So as long as you order the items they suggest for celiacs the chance of cross contamination is slim to none. We also asked them to change gloves and they were happy to do so. I have had no reaction to any of the food I ate. I had the meat lovers omelet a side of fresh fruit and a side of bacon.

Jimmy's typically has a three flat-top setup: one for eggs, one for potatoes, and one for pancakes/French toast. Check at your local spot, but we've been to several, and they all do this. There are lots of omelets and breakfast combos (eggs, meat, potatoes, bread). Just tell them you are gluten free, and they'll normally let you pick a fruit bowl. My son is highly sensitive to gluten, and we've never had a problem.
