There’s a dedicated GF pancake menu online with a solid variety of pancakes. GF pancakes are very good, and it’s nice to have choices beyond buttermilk.

Complaints- once I got glutened. Their GF pancakes taste very similar to their regular pancakes and I didn’t realize until I was halfway through the meal. Now I have my family try a piece first. Also, they are super expensive, and the GF pancakes are really tiny now. I haven’t eaten there since.

However, ever since I got glutened I have been asking them to please double check that they’re GF, and they have been writing it on the box to let me know they saw it.

It’s expensive so we don’t eat here often, but it’s nice to have the option. I wish they would expand to crepes.

They have items marked gf, and even offer gf griddle items, however, there is only 1 griddle so risk of cross contamination is high. Other items are prepped in a separate kitchen area and are much safer. Their omelettes are amazing!

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.
