It seems they used to be more careful. The last 3-4 time I have gone I got sick. The last time I was sick all afternoon. Unfortunately, I can not eat here anymore. Just one more thing I will have to cook myself.

Ordered the Vegan pancakes said to be wheat, dairy, and egg free. Within 15 min was getting vertigo and having vision problems. Loved this restaurant years ago. Won’t eat here again.

It was a beautiful place but if you have a peanut allergy also STAY AWAY. They put peanut oil in all of the batter. They were very accommodating but my son was very disappointed when he could only have fruit and bacon.

They have a list of the pancake options that can be made gluten free. We had bacon as well, but not sure about the eggs. They were extremely fluffy and likely had a little pancake batter mixed in - something to ask about. My sensitive GF boy didn't get sick, so that says a lot!

We go here regularly for the gf peanut butter pancakes. Everything is slightly overpriced so I go elsewhere unless I'm in the mood for pancakes but it's worth it for the pancakes!

Incredible buckwheat pancakes! Staff is very knowledgeable about gluten in their products. Do note the the potato pancakes have pancake batter in them. Otherwise, a perfect choice for gf breakfast :)

Gluten free pancakes! A variety of options. Made mine w bananas in them and they were fluffy and delicious. Menu says they are not a completely gluten free environment but I felt fine after eating.

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!

They have gluten sensitive pancakes. This is not shown on their website or menu, but the server showed me several types of pancakes that can be made with this batter. They also have omelet & egg selections.
