The best vegan/gluten-free waffles I have ever had. Plus, my decaf oat milk latte was good. Impressed with the food. There was a bit of wait on Sunday morning.

"Love at first bite." Gluten-free treats were a win and a must try! Young gentleman at counter shouldn't have been laying on the glass it gave uninviting energy. We also did not get one of our treats we requested but the treats we did receive were lovely and delicious.

Coffee is great. Tea is ok - comes in those plastic mesh bags ☹️ GF ginger snaps are amazing. Even if you don’t have a gluten allergy the ginger snaps are delicious.

I recently came to Madhatter’s for brunch, and I loved the diversity of the menu. They have breakfast all day which is a plus! I tried the wasabi salmon bowl, with an iced Vietnamese coffee. I have zero complaints, they’ve got me hooked on the coffee now. I’ve also ordered cakes for my family member’s birthdays and they are pretty delicious. The tiramisu is a must (but then again I am biased because I love coffee). They have gluten free and vegan options for savory items and sweet items which is a must. Staff is always super friendly!

Cute market, lots of local and small business choices. Food was in a big portion and tasted pretty good! I am celiac, and didn't have a problem getting a gluten free daily omelet special with grits.

We were next door having our windshield chip repaired and i waited till it was finished and decided to get something to eat. Saladelia was fantastic! I got tuna on sourdough (the softest i ever had) bread. The only downside is that they do not accept cash. But i just used my credit card. If you do not mind using your CC... Then i highly recommend Saladelia! Btw.. they have Gluten free options as well.

This is our new favorite coffee shop! The coffee, service, and vibe are all great. All the drinks are oat milk-based, but they do make drinks with regular milk on request. Small but really good pastry selection - including gluten free options. The oat milk is also gluten free. We have a family member with celiac disease; we consistently feel safe eating/drinking here and have never had an issue with accidental exposure to gluten.

Such a great, open atmosphere to grab a coffee or have one of their incredible sandwiches. The turkey pear was excellent. Gluten free options were a plus. Peaceful inside area with easy access to a courtyard for outdoor games. Also, large quiet work spaces in the neighboring building. Will definitely be returning!

Great spot to meet friends. I don't know the name of it but the vegan, gluten free treat is moist and has just the right amount of sweetness.

Great new place in durham! 4 food trucks, one ice cream truck, and an indoor bar with lots of seating. We had pina coladas which was great on a hot day. Lots and lots of seating. A big parking lot across the street with free parking. And plenty of gluten free and vegan options. I had a $12 falafel wrap. The tofu rice bowl at the Korean bulgogki food truck was pretty bland and needed extra soy sauce. Dog friendly.

This place was a lovely find. It’s in the heart of Durham yet feels relaxing, with a cozy ambiance. The panini sandwiches were delicious, with yummy gluten free bread options, and the side salad was simple and delicious. It was the perfect place for a lazy Sunday afternoon lunch.
