Gluten free pancakes, omelets, meat, hashbrowns w/o seasoning. Gluten pancakes come out on green rimmed plate. Great coffee!!
Ask the manager if you have questions. NOT WAITERS
Review
Amazing gf pancakes, our waiter is celiacs as well and took very good care of us. Really difficult to no go here every day!
Review
Waiter assured me that the potato pancakes were a gf option and they were definitely not. The menu is ambiguous about what qualifies as gf.

Everything is cooked on a shared grill except eggs. All sausage products are coated in flour. Not safe at all for celiacs and I wasn’t informed about this until after getting sick.

Awesome GF pancakes. I had blueberry & they were amazing! Their bacon is also good & not greasy. They have many GF options on menu. I am highly sensitive & did not get sick.

Knowledgeable. Will go over their procedures in the kitchen and listen and answer all of your questions. My son is extremely sensitive and he always orders the gf chocolate chip pancakes. He's never been sick after eating here.

The pancakes were amazing and the server and kitchen staff were very knowledgeable! Our server ensured the kitchen staff took the necessary precautions and I didn’t have a reaction!
Basically all the pancakes and waffles can be made gluten free and they change their gloves, use separate pans, and clean work areas.

They are very good about allergies. I asked for DF pancakes in addition to GF and they tasted normal! Brought out separate and had a label. So great!
