MIX
Accommodating

A vibrant spot with a unique Southeast Asian flair and varied flavors, perfect for families and those looking for something different.
My husband, mom, and I came to brunch this past Saturday. I'm gluten free, told my waitress I was and asked for some exchanges like gluten free toast. This was the only thing I ate on Saturday because later in the day, I had a massive gluten allergy reaction. I'm not sure if the waitress didn't tell the chef or the chef didn't read the ticket correctly, but there was gluten. I just want you to know because it's important that customers with allergies feel safe to eat here, especially when your menu states gluten free alternatives. It's a lovely, delicious restaurant that I'd like to come back to. Please on behalf of us non-gluten tolerating folks, watch out for our modifications. I just wanted to bring this to your attention. Thank you and have a happy new year. I sent this message to MIX on FB but they never got back to me.
Northstar Public House
Celiac friendly
202 E Falls St, Ithaca, NY 14850, USA
Experience a vibrant spot with a lively atmosphere, delicious meals, and a rotating menu that keeps everyone coming back for more.
Everything at brunch can be gluten free! Few places in town have GF pancakes or waffles, and they not only have them but they are good. The brunch menu rotates but everything we've had there for brunch and dinner has been awesome. Highly recommend if you have celiac or just want to avoid gluten and be a little gluttonous.
Collegetown Bagels
Gluten-free options
301 E State St, Ithaca, NY 14850, USA
A popular spot that keeps locals coming back, known for its quirky food packing style and delightful vibe.
Mama Said Hand Pies Cafe - Ulysses
Gluten-free options
1710 Trumansburg Rd, Ithaca, NY 14850, USA
Charming spot with a bright, airy vibe and unique handcrafted items, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends.
Lovely, quiet cafe perfect for meeting friends, family, or just hanging out doing work. The menu is small but has a good variety of drinks and treats, options for gluten and dairy free as well. Everything seems sourced very well and handmade. I hope they eventually will have more lunch available soon, as they seem to only do it for a short period of time with only a few specials every day. Love the savory and sweet hand pies! Blueberry with lemon glaze is my favorite.
