Unique. Reminds me of a subway order style. Customized personal pizza just shy of 11 bucks. Order any toppings you desire. Gluten-free pizza ordered by mother. Thin crust type pizza. Recommend baking a tad longer.
Hemingway's has been safe for me to eat at. They have limited (think Well seasoned chicken skewers, lentil soup, and blackened fish of the day) gluten free options, but being Celiac in Melbourne makes any place with quality cuisine a repeat.
I have my daughter and her friend here for spring break and Sunday we headed to Backwater for brunch! We sat outside on a cute patio and Chelsea was our waitress. She was very attentive made great suggestions on what we may like for food and for drinks. My daughter is gluten-free so she ordered the pancakes and said they were absolutely delicious.
I had the breakfast sandwich on the Cuban garlic bread that Chelsea had suggested and it was absolutely mouthwatering. When the gal came out to deliver it to me, she said you’re going to fall in love and she was right. It was exactly what we needed to kick off their visit to Florida. I will definitely be going back and trying some of the other menu items that look delicious. If you’re in the neighborhood, you’ll definitely have to stop by for a fantastic dining experience.
I came here for the first time for an anniversary celebration with my partner and the dining experience was incredible! Having celiac disease, it’s very hard to find restaurants that are accommodating. Especially restaurants with good gf bread! George was our server, and was amazing at ensuring the food I ate was not cross-contaminated. Even going the extra step to flip the spoon in the non-gf sauce on the platter so we would know the difference. (The little things matter!)
I would 100% recommend this place for any event, or even just a nice dinner out. Ask for George! He was an amazing server!
Amazing food and experience!!
First time coming and we will definitely be back!
I ordered the Vodka Penne and added blackened chicken, my husband had the Grilled Rigatoni with blackened chicken + side of risotto and it was all delicious!
The prices were great considering how formal and nice everything is. Large portions, we were able to bring home yummy leftovers to enjoy again (and again lol)
And our server, Marissa was amazing!
I have a slight gluten allergy, so after I ordered gluten free pasta, she made sure to mention that the sauce has gluten, and to ask if I wanted croutons on my salad! I really appreciated and admired how much she knew about their menu and allergens within it!
Also side note, their menu is very clearly labeled with Vegan(maybe vegetarian?) & Gluten free on specific items, and also offers gluten free pasta!
I'm quite picky about my GF pasta, and they made it PERFECTLY!!! everywhere else always undercooks it and they put lots of time and love into it for me. And their chicken was like the perfect white meat chicken! I'm super picky about textures and chicken is sometimes hard for me to eat but I devoured every bite without fear of the next! (iykyk)
I love the burgers here but the customer service is seriously lacking and the manger is extremely rude. Over my past 5 orders they have forgotten toppings, sides, and condiments. I’m a celiac and can’t eat gluten and this is one of the rare places who offer gluten free buns at an extra price. It’s already crappy I have to already pay more for a allergy but on top of that they never give me ketchup, or mayonnaise even when I ask multiple times to please put it in the bag. since my gluten free bun comes in a plastic wrapping they don’t put the condiments on the burger even tho I’ve asked them too they said they can put it in the bag and then never do! I’ve gotten a couple deluxe burgers missing onions, missing lettuce, missing ordered and paid for bacon on the burger. I’ve gone back through the drive thru because let’s be honest no one wants to eat a dry burger. Tonight I went through the drive thru after driving 20 minutes to get it and asked the girl three times for ketchup and even asked her if she put some in my bag and paid extra for two ranches and then I get home to no ketchup no mayonnaise and a burger with no lettuce or onion. I called the manager and was very respectful and said hi I was just there 25 minutes ago and ordered food, I ordered a deluxe gluten free burger and they gave me no ketchup or the ranch I paid for and my burger was missing lettuce and onion. And if I could come back tomorrow and get a remake cause this is like the 6th time it’s happened. He then told me I could come back right now when they close in 25 minutes and I’m 20 minutes away. He said he didn’t care there was no one above him to talk to and hung up on me. He was very rude, very disrespectful and I’m sick of them forgetting my items. Sucks cause food is good. Management is horrible and it seems like there’s multiple people having this issue. I work across the parking lot from them and eat there on my lunch sucks they’re gonna lose a almost daily customer over remaking a single burger. Do better
OMG!! Vegan of 30 years and THIS is my first stop when I fly into Florida. The creamy curry zoodles has been my favorite dish but they came out with a new gluten free Mediterranean tabouli dish with roasted eggplant and garlic and SHAZAAm!! An INSTANT new favorite. Service is incredibly attentive and their market has a little bit of everything from the esoteric to the metaphysic to down to earth. They also have a fully stocked meals to go refrigerated section (great when you want to not think about making food on vacation but wanna eat delicious and nutritious foods) and lots of dried goods, supplements, super foods, and other self care products! Come get your feast on! Prices are also reasonable for a 100% organic shop!

This place is fantastic. The food service and atmosphere were awesome. Would recoment the combo plater and the. Also the gluten free menu and vegan menu were eazy to read and understand
I haven't been to an IHOP in more than a decade because I have a gluten sensitivity. My friend wanted IHOP so I figured I'd have to watch him eat pancakes. Our incredible server, Stewart (yes that's the correct spelling) told me that IHOP HAS GLUTEN FREE PANCAKES! They are cooked on the same grill but it's a dry grill and they will wipe it down. I cannot tell you how happy I am! I got to have fluffy, tasty pancakes that did not cause a reaction. And Stewart was the best waiter I've had in a long time. He was attentive without being annoying, he was just as sweet as he could be and anticipated our needs at every turn. He should be working at a fine dining restaurant but he's just so damn personable I don't know that I would want to let him go.
Breakfast was exactly how I asked for it with dry scrambled eggs, everything was spot on, Delivered timely and again, Stewart is an absolute treasure.
This location is at the entrance of the Brevard Zoo so stop by, have brekkie AND ASK TO SIT IN STEWART'S SECTION
We had Melissa as a manager and Melissa as our server both were amazing very attentive and very helpful. I had dietary restrictions and they were just amazing. Making sure that I had gluten-free choices and that came out hot and delicious. I would recommend this to anyone. thank you to Melissa and Melissa. We will be back.
What great customer service we had. My sister-in-law (who had not been there before as she is not from this area) is gluten intolerant and was trying to decide what she could order. Allyson heard our conversation and offered a gluten-free menu. She was very friendly and created a great atmosphere for us. I have eaten here more than a few times, but this was the first time I was not 100% pleased with the food. It seemed a bit bland, and after I ate I thought it might have needed some more salt. Since I NEVER add salt to food when I eat out, I had not even considered that. If the food had been up to standard, as it has always been in the past, I would have given five stars. This one food experience will not give me pause; I will definitely go again. Note: Allyson is awesome and needs to be cloned!
Their (naturally gluten-free) macarons are out-of-this-world amazing! I might have to take up exercising just so I can keep eating them! Their other two GF options included meringue cookies and creme brûlée, which also looked delicious!
The team at this location was fantastic. I have gluten sensitivity and dairy sensitivity and the team was very understanding and even cleaned the cutter fully. Thank you!

I’m gluten free! However they offer a unique and delicious Guava cider! They have a welcoming environment offering indoor and outdoor relaxation! Most importantly they support local farmers and recycle spent grains from the brewing process. Thank you for contributing to your community!
Apocalypse has amazing coffee and a super cool space and atmosphere. Their coffee is some of the best in Brevard County. Their food hasn’t super blown me away but it’s still pretty good and I really appreciate the variety, as well as the gluten free options. The employees are always nice. The only issue is the lack of parking during busy times and lack of seating inside, but I suppose it’s a testament to their popularity. Regardless I love this place and can’t wait for their new location to open up!
Lots of gluten free options and staff was very knowledgeable in addition to gluten free items marked on the menu. I have celiac and did not have any issues. Food was delicious, will definitely be back.
Just discovered there is a gluten free bread option. I had no idea. I recently, 5/18/25, had the healthy delight but replaced the spinach with regular lettuce and it was dope AF. Ordered online and ready within like 8 mins. Will be here again for sure. Also a good alternative to ordering Jersey Mike's from uber eats at half the cost since I work in the mall.
Amazing food and service! My family and I celebrated my mom’s 72nd birthday here with a group of 10: 3 kids and 7 adults.
To start, their soda fountain has flavored sparkling water, unique soda flavors, and the usuals, but is made with cane sugar in place of HF corn syrup.
The food is prepared fresh and served hot. Sooooo good also. Most of us had one of their award winning burger options, but they offer a good variety of food options. My wife who is, no dairy and gluten free diet, was able to eat a steak skewer with sides. The service was quick and friendly for a large group. I highly recommend Island IX for any occasion.
If you're are looking for a new spot to eat - Island IX is your place!
Safe gluten-free food and preparation. Freshest ingredients and friendly service. Dining area is clean and comfortable. Generous parking. Easy access. Handicap accessible.
Celiac friendly
