J. Selby's is one of my absolute favorite places in the Metro. The food is all delicious. Tons of gluten free options, too!

Their gluten free menu is very well thought out and yummy. Always enjoy our visit. We were able to sit outside

We had a lovely late lunch between flights at the Minneapolis airport. I am Celiac so the menu was so refreshing! Our server, Ken, was very attentive and very efficient. The only downside was the cost! Our lunch was almost $150! (with two drinks each and tip).

Great gluten sensitive selection!

Waited 45 minutes for 2 omelettes with hashbrowns. Omelettes were small, ham was sliced up lunchmeat and the hashbrowns were so salty they were inedible. The female staff person emptying the garbage went straight to touching clean silverware and then to serve our food without washing her hands. The only good part of the visit was the gluten-free chocolate muffin, however, I will find out in a couple hours if it was actually GF. I would not visit this place again.

We've came here many times today me and my kids had the worst experience the cashier was not nice and unaware of the stores options of gluten free and food options. He was not pleasant and my waffle was very doughy and soggy. I told them the remade it and it was still the same. Whoever the chef back there is doesn't know how to make waffles my 9 year can do better than that. Waste of time and money ruined for us. Never coming back here again.

If you're gluten-free or celiac I would avoid this location!!! Horribly dirty ! DO NOT EAT HERE place was disgusting never seen keys so disgusting sadly. Food wasn't keys signature style or taste I eat keys alot at other locations. And the urinal in the men's bathroom was the worst black mold and grime that I've ever seen it was horrible standing piss unbelievable ! Very disappointed. Cook didn't pay attention to my lady's allergies either. Overall just not a clean place either dirt and grime on tables sticky stuff on floors and window sill area . Brown gravy on floor and bench areas everywhere on floor was dirty look like it hadn't been swept in a month. Very poor appearance. 👀🤦‍♂️😔 WASTED TRIP OF TIME N MONEY . Roseville#2 Woodbury#3 or Hudson#1 KEYS are definitely the go-to. (If you're gluten-free or celiac I would avoid this location!!! )

Had some amazing gluten free chocolate cake and an okay latte, but this isn’t a place to hang out. I was trying to get some work done and was told there was no wifi.

Bread & Chocolate is one of my favorite spots! The drinks are always solid, and the bakery items are fresh and delicious. As someone who is gluten-free, I really appreciate that they have amazing GF options—the GF scones and the GF chocolate brownie cookie are absolutely incredible! If you're lucky, you can snag some day-old cookies at 50% off, and they’re still super fresh. The only (minor) con is the seating—the tables feel a little too high, or maybe the chairs are too low? Not quite sure, but it’s a bit awkward. That said, I’m being nitpicky because I still love working here or meeting up with people. Definitely worth a visit!

Layback, self sitting/ordered. Friendly staffs brings your order to your table (loved it). They do offer gluten free options. We enjoyed crème brûlée, latte w/gold, iced chocolate, hot chocolate(offered kids temperature). Generous salad Dressing overpowering the taste of avocado toast. Toasts are very dry to me and roasted potatoes are way too salty with average bacons. Fluffy scrambled eggs were very good. Chocolate with strawberries crepes were on point.

Amy Lauria

Great place to grab a bite to eat with friends. They have a nice drink/beverage menu and offer gluten free and vegan options. The staff was very friendly and helpful at pointing out what could be made gluten free and what wasn't! We will definitely be back.

Over priced, not good food. I ordered a 1/2 grilled cheese sandwich on gluten free bread & tomato basil soup. $12!! It was a very, very small 1/2 sandwich partially grilled then a very small cup (not bowl) that contained about 1/3 cup of 'soup' that was so thick (and partly burnt) it shouldn't have been called soup. We were very disappointed and will not return.

Workhorse is one of my favorite coffee shops in the Twin Cities! I've never been disappointed with anything here. The blueberry cornbread muffin is one of my faves even though I'm not gluten-free. You have to try the miel as well as the pumpkin cream cheese muffin. I also love how there's no upcharge for milk alternatives. The service here is always super friendly and I feel so welcomed.

Had a stellar experience at this tiny coffee shop in Saint Paul. I was staying in an airbnb nearby, and it was recommended by the owner. It exceeded my expectations: friendly efficient service, delicious drinks, and lots of light food options, including gluten free donuts from SIFT (I got the blueberry and it was quite good). If I'd had time, I would have returned, and I will certainly go again if I'm in the area.

Arrived as a girl, left as a woman. A changed woman. Amazing iced latte. I’m always scared of getting vanilla lattes from these “craft coffee shops” because it seems these days they want to be all “cool different full of dirt and grit” about everything (you know what I mean!!) but not here. Just damn good coffee and I appreciate that. It’s cute inside, spacious, comfortable and clean which is a plus. All the employees were super friendly each visit (I’ve only been 3x and each time like the last - a treat!) and seemed like they genuinely were happy. So that’s a plus, or they’re all great actors destined for greatness! Bakery items top tier with gluten free options for the celiac cuties which is always a plus in my book! Parking is kind of scary so plan to bike or walk in if possible, if you’re not local that’s okay, you’ll survive.

Love eating here. This was an old family favorite growing up and even with updates over the years this place always hits the spot. Perfect portions for days you are super hungry, and for the days you need smaller portions (the specials are amazing) As someone who struggles with dietary issues (Celiac, and autoimmune GI issues) I love coming here knowing I won't get sick. -but my husband, who can eat anything, is a fiend for the caramel rolls and cinnamon rolls A favorite place to brunch with my mom ❤️

Great food. My celiac girlfriend did get a reaction from the gluten free food. Assuming that was due to cross contamination and the inability to be completely sure of gluten on their end. Just note this place is not safe for a gluten free diet.

We try to hit up all the Thai places on University Ave and we keep coming back here. It's our hands down favorite. The service is great, the food is FANTASTIC and the owner and workers really go above and beyond to make sure you have a great meal. I am Celiac and everything on the menu is clearly labeled. Although everything is terrific, the KHAO MUN GAI is my go-to.

Waited a while at the register before anyone took my order. There were 3 people in view. One of them asked another worker to take my order, and I still waited a few more minutes until someone did. The gluten free crepe was yummy tho.
