Drew is the best! He was so fast and knew everything about the menu to cater our meals according to our gluten and lactose restrictions. The restaurant is such a vibe too. 10/10 would recommend, especially if you’re going with a big group of friends.
SO GOOD! RUN, DON’T WALK!!! I know that sounds dramatic, and maybe it is, but we seriously loved it. I have been to quite a few vegan places wherever we travel. I could not believe how beautiful this place was and most importantly, how delicious. The cheeses are out of this world. My husband got a gluten free sandwich, the caprese I believe. It had pesto and mozzarella - super good! I got the bacon brie and me on their normal bread and that was really good! They do offer gf vegan bacon. Cheeses were amazing! We got a cheese platter that comes with cheese, nuts, and the strawberry habanero jam (AMAZIN). Definitely loved the truffle brie, tomato fromage, pepper jack, and blue cheese. I am jealous for the people who live in Austin and are blessed by this place. Also, service was amazing. Everyone was super helpful and kind. Definitely will order online!! 🥰
I’ve visited Colleen’s twice. A happy hour on the patio that included appetizers and a Saturday brunch inside the main dining area. There’s a lot to appreciate about this place. It’s a family-run restaurant with a nice vibe. High-quality ingredients and the food is prepared well. Our waitress was only semi-friendly but very knowledgeable about options for dietary restrictions, like gluten free. Example: She knew the grits were from a local mill and not safe for people with gluten intolerance. And the french fries were fried in the same oil as breaded foods but the breakfast home fries were not. There were also two managers helping out servers to keep things flowing smoothly, and seemed to genuinely care that everyone had a good experience. Another great plus: The restaurant validates parking. The drawbacks for me were the very limited menu, especially for brunch, which is served 10a to 2:30p on Saturdays and Sundays. And from that limited menu, only a small percentage of foods could be made gluten free. Just salads and two breakfast sandwiches with the sides swapped out for home fries. Though props that the breakfast sandwich was served with good gluten-free bread.
We loved our cake! And it was GLUTEN FREE! It was beautiful, delicious, and a wonderful centerpiece. I am so thankful to Quacks for working with me. They took pictures and ideas and created a beautiful piece of art!
