I'm gluten intolerant, and I've been wanting to try The Green Cat out for a while. The walk up, was beautiful. Lots of greenery. When you walk into the juice bar, there's a small store area full of cute items available for purchase. I went to visit on a Sunday and it was pretty crowded. The space is small, so seating was an issue after ordering. Finding somewhere to stand without feeling in the way was awkward. Finally, someone left, so I was able to sit. I was hoping to sit outside in the patio area, but that was also full (A good problem to have from a business standpoint). The service was good, the staff was very helpful and patient. When my food was ready, they brought it over to where I was sitting. I got a Blue Majik smoothie bowl, and the Strawberry Crisp toast. My boyfriend got the Green Goddess toast and the chili with a coffee. I tried everything and everything was really good! I don't even like gf toast most of the time. Lol! I liked the Green Goddess toast more than the Strawberry Crisp toast. The SC toast is more of a dessert toast (sweet), whereas the GG toast is more of a breakfast toast (savory). I'll definitely come again when I'm on this side of town. Glad I found a place where I can eat everything on the menu! It means more than you know.

This is the first time I've left a review on any business to let the people who have celiac/gluten allergy to be warned. I got the gluten free pancakes last Tuesday and they were not gluten free. Still dealing with the after effects :/

GLUTEN FREE/CELIAC FRIENDLY - A neat little coffee shop with great coffee, food, and snacks. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable about allergies. Coffee here is much better than most other chains. It was super busy the time we went but they managed to get people through. Bit of a wait to receive your order during busy hours but it's worth the wait.

Amazing food, very nice ambiance, excellent service. As we prefer vegan and gluten free food, this place delighted us with many v-gf options in the menu. All the dishes we ordered were delicious and we enjoyed. They also got a small store with authentic Mediterranean things like olive oil, tea, coffee beans, salad dressings etc.

Food was delicious and service was spot on. I love the vibe of this place! If anything, I would change the location of the large standing table in front of the door. It was super busy when I went in and made it hard to check in at the hostess stand for all the people and then when we were being seated. They have an excellent gluten free menu!

Valet parking only. Stunning atmosphere, light and breezy Bohemian style. Chorizo omelette and cheese grits were fantastic (and heavy on the chorizo). Pancakes were thinner but very tasty. Service was great. A perfect brunch spot - just note that it is on the pricier side (but worth it). Gluten free items clearly marked on the menu and server & kitchen were responsive to GF order.
