This was my favorite spot in town to meet friends for good food and good beer. I've met a lot of new close friends at trivia night. Loved the staff, the entire environment and the overall energy of this location. They had the best Karaage in Denver!!
Unfortunately, I noticed a big change in the energy and quality of the location under new ownership. The food menu was cut to a much smaller menu. They no longer had sports playing. The hours they were open were reduced. The beer used to be gluten reduced and was why I came here (gluten intolerant.) I had an incident last week after going to happy hour and got really sick. After talking to some of the staff I was informed they no longer reduce the gluten in the beer since the new owner took over. You can't just stop removing the gluten in the beer and not even tell the regulars or ppl coming in. Someone could have a serious reaction and be hospitalized. Luckily I was better after a few days.
The new owner has now laid off all the staff and it's turned into an Indian food buffet (yak and yeti.) I went into a yak and yeti one time a few years ago and walked out due to the rudeness of staff, smell and lack of cleanliness of the establishment.
I'm very upset spice trade is gone. This new owner destroyed spice trade. This is a great loss to the community and the memories we have all shared. My heart goes out to the great staff. Thank you for all the great memories! ❤️🙏
My last trip to the pancake House was a bit of a letdown. The food was uninspired. There are places where you can get a much better breakfast for the same price . With food service and atmosphere all getting three stars. You might wonder how or why I'm giving it four stars. It gets four stars for carrying gluten-free pancakes. They were one of the first in the area and that will always give me a soft spot with regards to them. Nothing there was bad, but it was uninspired. My wife disagrees with this review, she thought it was fantastic. I think what's going on here is my tastes have changed as I've gotten older and can't just scarf down a breakfast of pancakes with syrup.
Great breakfast place with lots of gluten free options. The blueberry pancakes were delicious. And the extra thick cut bacon was exceptional. My husband enjoyed his omelette. Pretty big portions.
I was visiting from out of town and didn't realize they were going to be closed for a private function. They were super helpful and allowed me to order just ahead of the group anyway. There aren't many celiac safe places to eat, but I make it a point to visit here whenever I am in town!
This was one of the best Gluten Free lunches I’ve had! The ingredients were extremely fresh and the flavors were wonderful. The staff was all very kind, and it was a good atmosphere to stay and eat in. I will definitely be visiting more of these locations, the juice was delicious as well, I can’t wait to try more!
I've been ordering from The French Press for awhile (incredible delicious food, great options, lovely service) and have been meaning to leave a review, but I had an experience this morning that had led me to write this. I have PCOS and need to be on an anti-inflammatory diet, so I've always appreciated The French Press for their options. I don't have Celiac or an allergy, but gluten is one of the things I limit to avoid triggering my condition. This morning I doordashed a breakfast burrito with a gluten-free tortilla, some pork green chile on the side, and some coffee. Someone not only noticed I had ordered a gluten free tortilla, but had the care and courtesy to write in big red letters on the reciept stapled to the bag that the pork green chile wasn't gluten free and put the chile itself in a well secured plastic container in the bottom of the bag.
To whomever took the time to see that gluten-free tortilla and write the message about the pork chile not being gluten-free on the receipt - thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness. It may have been something small, but it means the world you went out of your way to notice that. Thank you for bringing kindness into this chaotic world. It hasn't gone unnoticed ❤️
To anyone else reading this review, this is what you can expect when you order from The French Press - kindness, consideration, and some damn good food. Give 'em a try and tip the workers! They're good people 😊
Haven't been in person but have ordered online a couple of times and this food is just phenomenal. GF options have been safe for me as someone with celiac. Prices are quite reasonable.
They were so nice. One of us can do gluten and the kitchen staff actually came out to offer different options to cook the gluten free meal so that person could get the best experience possible. 5 stars isn't enough awesome food and better service!!
The host and hostess had a sour look on their faces and seemed bothered that we were there. The waitress was LOVELY but there weren’t many gluten free options and the food was okay. I think if when we walked through the door we were properly greeted it would have set us up for a better experience. Even leaving they didn’t acknowledge us.
We have been here many many times have never had an issue unless it is very busy and we have to wait even after having made a reservation. That is the only complaint I've ever had. The food is amaizing. Always love the bang bang shrimp they have great fish and chips and I love the new brussel sprouts. They also offer great gluten free options. I just miss the creme Brule. I hope it returns to the menu. Staff is great even when we had a table behind us being extremely rude, they handled it with grace.
Illegal Pete’s is the best food in the entire world. Steak nachos are the best. Gluten free options are plentiful. Chipotle and Qdoba don’t even compare.
This is a fast casual/to go restaurant that seems to be geared for Americans. There are a myriad of options; such as Thai or American style, vegan, gluten-free, etc., There were no Thai folks working and the dishes were tasty but not traditional. Heat levels were low compared to real Thai restaurants, and they did not use fresh chilies, which would require more skill from a real Thai chef..
We were looking for a sit down restaurant but were served in paper bowls, not really what we were after. I think most local folks would be happy, but this restaurant is adapted to local tastes rather than focused on being a real Thai restaurant. It was fast and tasty, but definitely not a true Thai restaurant experience - maybe exactly what you’re looking . I recommend it for takeout, but not for Thai folks or people who have a real passion for traditional Thai food.
Great spot! Really good food with great flavors (and good srinks). It's definitely a popular spot with somewhat limited parking in the direct vicinity. It is a bit louder in the place. You walk in and order your food and they bring it to you but it is more of a modernized healthy faster food option. Very accomodating for all kinds of preferences: Meat, vegetarian vegan options, dairy free, and gluten free. I would day this is great for quick bites, families, or a local spot but if you're looking for traditional sit down with full service you may want to keep paroozing. There is wheelchair accessible parking, side walks, and entrance. Prices did add up very quickly but large portions!
went for a drag brunch on a Saturday and it was so much fun! especially during pride month. bottomless mimosas are delicious, you can choose multiple juices to mix it up too. oh, and they have gluten free goat cheese beignents that are to die for!
