We really enjoyed this spot. The ambiance and service were great. Love how you can get a waffle any time of the day, especially a gluten free waffle! My favorite out of the love me tender, ol’ blue eyes, and hashtag (all were ordered gf) was the love me tender. If you are a peanut butter lover like me you have to get this one!

I came here for the gluten free options and did get glutened. The waitress was not at all knowledgeable about gluten and reassured me multiple times that the ‘cookie’ in my milkshake was gluten free, but it was made with wheat flour. Proceed with extreme caution if you are highly sensitive to gluten or have celiac.

Our family spent a wonderful Easter brunch together at City Flats. We’ve done quite a few Easter brunches over the years, but this one was extra special. The food options were perfect for a couple of us with gluten and dairy sensitivities. I usually can’t get dessert because of dairy/gluten issues, but City Flats had several options including dairy free chocolate covered strawberries. The venue had a charming elegance to it and the service paid attention to every detail. Until Next Year City Flats !

Visiting from out of town and staff was pleasant and helpful when I asked them questions about the different products. Latte was delicious as was their homemade bakery items. They have gluten free options and are close to the children's museum which is a plus for parents/caregivers when visiting.
