I think in general this is a safe place to eat with the caveat that your experience depends heavily on the waitstaff you get. I let our waitress know I have celiac disease and cannot eat gluten. I could tell my waitress was not familiar with what this meant so I was immediately uneasy. I asked her to verify if the Chorizo Scrambler was gluten free. She came back saying it was so that is what I ordered. I insisted that she add that I needed it GF on the ticket, which she eventually did.
The cook came out to let me know he couldn't verify that the Chorizo was actually GF and asked why I was asking for GF. I told him I had celiac disease and he said I needed to order something else. I got the GF pancakes which were good. But had I not advocated for myself it could have been a bad scenario because the waitress clearly never checked when I asked before ordering, putting my health at risk.

GF is not on the menu but they can make anything GF. They have a separate griddle for making GF pancakes and a separate area in the kitchen. All great and I didn't get sick.

Many Original Pancake House locations offer gluten free pancakes. Please speak to your server about taking the proper precautions to prevent cross contamination, if necessary.
Delicious bacon pancakes! GF wasn’t on the menu, but my waitress was very knowledgeable about what could be made GF and also let me know about their dedicated cooking area for their GF pancakes. It was delicious and I felt great afterwards!

I just went to this location on Monday and had a phenomenal experience. While the building is a little out dated and they only accept cash or check, the food was delicious. They don’t have a gluten free menu but I communicated with my waitress and she had a friend with celiacs so she knew the seriousness of the allergy. She stated they have a gluten free batter and a dedicated grilling area for the pancakes. You can add chocolate chips, blueberries, or any simple mix ins; you just have to ask. I got the Western Omelette which was made with four eggs and huge and it also came with a side of three pancakes. I forgot how much I loved pancakes, and I’m just waiting to go back!

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.
