They take allergies and celiac very seriously here. Although the menu is not marked, you can ask them what is gluten-free. I'm majority of the entrées are. And they have a dedicated fryer and some of the best fries we have ever had. It is one of our go to places and we feel very safe coming here. They've got great protocols in place.

I chose the vedge experience to try 3 dishes and desert for $65/person. All the plates were not only uniquely thought through and delicious, but also presented like works of art. I really enjoyed the creative balance of flavors they used from only plant sources that even mimicked non-vegetarian dishes I've had before. Menu rotates seasonal so I will be returning soon and is well accomodating for gluten free patrons. An experience well worth trying

An upscale take on a typical Israeli hummus and skewers restaurant. You'll share a huge number of veggie apps for the table, with as many refills as you want, and then everyone orders a main dish (which you can also share). We were blown away by the fish, but underwhelmed but the cauliflower. Great attention to allergies and lots of gluten free options. Like the apps, dessert is also included with the main course. We ended up spending surprisingly less than expected.

Sometimes, all ya really want is a good ol' gluten free breakfast sandwich, and thankfully, High Street delivers! Apparently you can order a GF loaf ahead of time as well, in case you were wondering. The man working was super nice 🙂 Also very happy that they have delicious modification options, so my maple sausage, egg + cheese with avocado + caramelized onions was super flavorful and juuust a little bigger than I could finish. Their pastries and refrigerated sides look super good; only one gf chocolate muffin available. Small place with enough seating for 4-5 inside and 6 outside. & the fresh OJ was super fresh!

We only waited about 5 minutes, which was great! This is our second time coming here, and it’s quickly becoming a go-to spot for us. We love stopping by after a savory meal for something sweet—and these crêpes never disappoint. Super delicious and a big plus: they're gluten-free! Can’t wait to come back again with my partner.

Very cute place! We’ll definitely be returning. Fairly priced, great service, incredible food. The calamari were amazing as was the caprese salad. We did the tortelloni, ravioli, and mushroom risotto for dinner and all of us were speechless! You can tell how fresh the ingredients are and how thoughtfully they were prepared. If you have celiac disease/are gluten free (or any other dietary restriction), don’t hesitate to make the reservation here; they will take care of you. Thanks for a great experience!

This restaurant is an absolute joke. I ordered this gluten free shack burger in the shake shack app and received the most pathetic portion I’ve ever seen of lettuce and tomato. My order also included a regular shack burger with large tomato slices and lettuce. This has to be a joke. I could’ve cried I was so hungry, and I lost my appetite peeling the three pieces of tomato stacked on top of each other because they were all congealed into the cheese. I also had to eat it without the top bun because all of the sauce was attached to the shred of lettuce on the burger.

The staff are very knowledgeable about gluten, cross contact, and celiac! (I’ve heard that the owner has celiac.) Great food, lots of GF options, the menu is well-labeled, and the atmosphere is great (indoor and outdoor seating)! They also have delicious GF desserts. This restaurant is my go-to.

My friends surprised me with a cake from here for my bridal shower last year, and I’m so grateful they introduced me to this incredible bakery. Their pizza and cakes are particularly to die for, but they have all sorts of other wonderful treats for anyone unable to consume gluten & vegan! They are also very friendly and lovely. Highly recommend!

Really wanted to like this place. My girlfriend was so excited to try the gluten free bagel. Bagels were below average. I asked for mine toasted and they did not toast it. Seriously, the only thing you had to do and it probably would have made it a decent bagel! I know that it was close to closing but come on. Feel bad leaving this review because they were nice and the store was cute.

Really cute and tasty dessert. It felt so special getting each of these desserts served to us. So much thought and detail has been put into the presentation. The flavors are also the start of the show. This is not a case of style over substance. I would highly recommend going here for a night out or quality time with someone special. There are also great gluten free options. I had the teramisu which is gf and was delicious.

Today was the first time I’ve had a shake shack burger in over a decade due to a gluten allergy after practically living at the Madison square park location prior. My fiancé and I learned of the addition of gluten free buns a few weeks ago, so naturally I wanted a burger as my first food after a 14 hour gastric testing fast. The staff were extra careful with our food and super professional about alerting us to cross contamination. Thanks for making my day, team! ♥️ and look at this bun!!!

I think I have recommended their salted banana pudding to every one of my friends and I make sure anyone visiting philly tries it too. Hands down one of my favorite sweet treats in the city! Plus everyone working there has been kind and accommodating, going so far as to make us gluten free puddings and sold out flavors upon request

I'm not sure they've ever gotten my order fully right. They pay no attention to "gluten free bun" and half the time give me a bun that will make me sick. They skip ingredients -- don't bother adding avocado or bacon or whatever, you get what you get. Wrong shake flavors, wrong fries dips, and they never send ketchup or utensils when you ask through the app. If you aren't picking up yourself to check and guarantee your order is right, don't bother. I'm giving up.
