Top 21 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Delight in Castle Rock

Disappointed and not really worth the $$$. I could make gluten free better at home and get more for the same money. $10+ for two items

Amazing food & a reasonable price! Gluten free options were fantastic. Great atmosphere & caring staff. I think this place will give other restaurants a run for their money!!

Went for happy hour and had the best blackberry margaritas. The flatbread is so good, and they offer gluten-free, which is hard to find.

🫥Disappointing Experience Despite Planning Ahead Yesterday, we dined at Great Divide with a group of about twelve people. We had made our reservation more than a week in advance, hoping to ensure a smooth visit. Unfortunately, despite our efforts, the experience was unnecessarily frustrating and fell far short of what I’d expect from an established restaurant. As someone with dietary restrictions, I try to plan ahead to avoid putting staff on the spot. Before our visit, I checked Great Divide’s website and tried calling to confirm gluten-free and dairy-free options. I was assured over the phone that the in-person menu would clearly list allergens and that the waitstaff was experienced and could answer questions easily. However, upon arrival, our tables were not ready, despite the reservation. We had to wait for extra seating to be added after being initially seated—which, as anyone dining with kids knows, is not a small inconvenience. Once we settled in, I asked our server about gluten-free options, since the menu (both online and in-person) offered no allergen details. Her response was, “I don’t know gluten. I’m not a gluten person.” She seemed confused and even slightly annoyed that I was asking, despite the assurances I’d received on the phone. She then had to go speak to the kitchen. Which is fine but that is also what I had asked to do / tried to do several times prior to being there and was brushed off and told that everything would be ready and clear when we arrived. Beyond the dietary confusion, service overall was VERY slow. It took nearly 40 minutes just to receive drinks, and even longer for some who ordered simple items like lemonade. Meanwhile, no manager ever came by to check on us or address the clear issues, despite being made aware that our group was agitated. When the food finally arrived, my meal (the half bird) was disappointingly underseasoned and completely lacking flavor. I truly believe Great Divide could do better. My advice to management: • Support your staff so they’re equipped to handle large parties confidently, especially regarding dietary questions. • Consider assigning a second server for big groups to reduce stress and long wait times. • Provide clearer allergen information on your menu to avoid confusion and help guests with food sensitivities feel safe and welcome. • Have management check in proactively when significant delays or issues arise. We were looking forward to a pleasant outing, and it’s unfortunate that a situation that could have been easily managed became so stressful. I hope Great Divide takes this feedback to heart and improves both their service and guest experience. TL;DR: large group tables not ready despite a reservation, extremely slow service, staff unprepared for group size and food allergy questions even though I called ahead, no manager checked in even after waiting over 30 min for drinks and food was bland. A frustrating experience that should have been avoidable.

Emily was great. The kids loved the chicken strips, and I thought that the gluten-free buns was delicious. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try.

This place is just great all-around. Super friendly staff, gluten-friendly menu, delicious food, fun atmosphere. They also seem to treat their employees very well based on my sister's experience working here. Support this local, yummy treasure!

This was a tough one because I was really looking forward to a seafood Benedict. We drove up from the north part of the springs on Sunday because the reviews and the place looked pretty fantastic. In a nutshell, my wife got the king crab Benedict, and I got the crab cake Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was fantastic. Although, all our eggs were basically hard boiled. I love eggs Benedict and everybody knows the eggs need to be a runny center. When you drop 30 bucks a plate, you expect the eggs to be right. I’m sure I could’ve said something, but when your food comes out altogether and ready, the last thing you wanna do is return your plate because the eggs are wrong. I was ready to eat. I feel that’s one aspect of an eggs Benedict You just have to get right. A couple other small things, When we ordered, we let the server know my wife was gluten-free. A few minutes after the food arrived, the server came back and said that the potatoes are not gluten-free. She offered to swap out with seasonal fruit, which was just fine. When we got our bill, we were charged four dollars for the potatoes that my wife couldn’t eat. They took it off, but just make sure and look at your bill. I was able to eat the potatoes and I’ll have to say they were soft. When I say soft, it’s like they had been sitting in a warming tray on a buffet, and I scooped it out and put it on my plate. I love breakfast potatoes and I only ate a few bites. Due to my wife having the gluten allergy, I’ve sampled many many types of gluten-free breads, and English muffins. What they served my wife’s eggs Benedict on was not a gluten-free English muffin. It tasted more like gluten-free pancakes. It was even a touch sweet. Overall, the service was good and the atmosphere really nice but when you’re paying $30 for eggs, Benedict and all the things happened above, it’s challenging to want to return.

Great store to have a hot drink made your way! I love the gluten free brownies and their store with beautiful products that help people in need.
