Clean cozy and welcoming. Has a table for 8 plus a few smaller tables for 2. The price was average for a small Independent coffee spot. Gluten free bakery items on hand usually

Very cute place, I would love to hang out there but I was just moving through and grabbed a cinnamon sugar cookie that happened to be gluten free. If they make a cookie that dope, I figure I need to come back for some coffee!! It was THAT good! Thanks y’all ❤️❤️🙏

In from out of town (Detroit) and the ambiance was a perfect combination of relaxed, classy and energetic. The food was delicious and offered tasty Gluten-free pasta options! Kayla, our server, was very friendly, knowledgeable and made us feel welcome! To top it off, the music and DJ was great! Will definitely come back! Bonus…Woman Owned Business!

After encountering an initial disappointment at Burgerim due to receiving gluten buns instead of the gluten-free lettuce wraps I ordered, I was pleasantly surprised by the owner's response. Mario promptly addressed my concerns with sincerity, offering a full refund and a gift card as a gesture of goodwill. His commitment to improving service and ensuring a better experience on my next visit is commendable. While my first visit was disappointing, I appreciate Mario's efforts to rectify the situation. Therefore, I am updating my rating to 4 out of 5 stars. Thank you, Mario, for your attention to customer satisfaction.

They have a great assortment of various types of donuts. They have reg as well as vegan and gluten-free, sugar free and dairy free all baked! So delicious 😋

I love Metropolitan Coffee! Every time I have been here, the staff is always very kind and welcoming. They have great coffee and different housemade flavors. Also, they have wonderful and delicious food and dessert selections. (Good options also if you are gluten free!) Love it here, and have always felt very safe here even when I am picking up a coffee here by myself.

Great place with wonderful people. I go there quite a bit for their breakfast and am always pleased. My goto is the Marc's Brothers. They carry gluten free bread which is a rarity for most establishments. I must also admit their sausage is better than Bob Evan's! If you go you must try their pancakes and waffles as well. They are excellent.

What a special place! We came for a medical visit and left with full bellies and happy hearts. Amazing service, above and beyond kindness and EPIC food! Gluten free magic too!

Cafe inside Rays Indoor MTB Park was Gypsy Beans! Friendly staff at this location. Coffee was great. Gluten free options but nothing dairy free. They do have some vegan burrito but no idea what it consisted of. Baked goods looked SO yummy.

This was absolutely THE BEST GLUTEN FREE PIZZA I HAVE EVER HAD!!! The owner was incredibly friendly and I will definitely be calling for the recipe😊😊😊

So much thought has gone into every item in this cafe - no seed oils, all organic produce, clean water / reverse osmosis water and a variety of drinks I still need to try (which are also creative). There are not many places that are as organic/clean and free of additives. Finding this place by a simple google was really nice! plant - based milks (cashew and oat) made from scratch (house nut milk made with reverse osmosis water). I tried the following: - Gluten-free bagels that were soft and fluffy and filling (and not starchy like most GF breads) - GF muffins (tried the banana oat and it was delicious, not overly banana or sweet) - Iced matcha with cashew milk and fresh muddled organic blueberries (pictured) I love exploring organic/healthy places that I would not otherwise get to try when traveling for appointments - finding this gem a few minutes away from downtown Cleveland was a nice end to lots of stress and planning. I can't wait to go back and try more items like coffee!

I love this place! The food here is extremely healthy and very accommodating to my dietary restrictions including gluten and dairy. The staff is so welcoming and nice and made the entire experience so much better. 10/10 would come back.

I absolutely LOVE it here. My husband and I just recently discovered 27 Club after picking up the latest copy of Scene Magazine. Due to medical conditions, I frustratingly have to avoid both gluten and dairy. This limits my options at most restaurants & cafes. When I saw the menu here, I was stunned. We got a Margherita pizza with vegan cheese and gluten free crust…it was the best I’ve ever had! My husband, who does NOT have dietary restrictions, said he couldn’t even tell that it was gluten free or dairy free. The drinks are gorgeous. I highly recommend the pink milk latte with oat milk! Make sure you pick up some merch and do not miss the vegan + gluten free desserts that are on the counter, off to the side. We tried the donuts and not only were they tasty, but they weren’t too heavy. I left feeling great. This is a must-visit for the sensitive stomach girlies! Parking is surprisingly decent for the location. Atmosphere is social media worthy and very on brand for MGK. Already looking forward to going back.

While visiting Cleveland, my group and I picked Heart of Gold randomly after a Google search of restaurants in the area, while looking for places that have vegetarian and gluten free options. The food amount is generous on every single entree we ordered, but the flavor has made it a must visit every time we are in the area. I had the couscous salad but had a concern that one of the ingredients would be too spicy (as I am quite intolerant of heat). The server (Gemma) said it wasn’t spicy but didn’t miss a beat and made it on the side so that I could judge if it was right for me. She was right about the heat, and the balance of acid and sweet was perfect! It also had the best combination of texture with soft, crunchy, and chewy elements. All but one of us (5 people total) had several requests for Gemma and she came through on every one including comping a drink when the one ordered wasn’t able to be made as listed on the menu and a substitute ingredient was used but wasn’t satisfactory. I will definitely ask to eat there again when I’m visiting, and I know others in my group who live in the area will highly recommend Heart of Gold to anyone looking for a great restaurant.

NOTE PSA: There are Gluten Free options on the menu, AND some of the bread options *Are NOT actually gluten free*. They are supposed to be in the process of updating their menus. I was able to find ample options that were both Gluten free and nut free. Servings were generous, appetizing presentation, you could smell the spices and ingredients, the sauces and foods were flavorful and prepared appropriately. The service was professional, courteous, friendly, and clean. Tables and overall establishment was friendly, warm, inviting, clean, and had a flair for ethnic decor. Good natural light from the front window, several booths available for a more intimate date or gathering, and then several tables in the middle of the floor. I found them in an online search near Severance Hall. They do take reservations. I highly recommend this place, and will eat there again. Oh, prices are fair for what you receive. Beverage selection is sufficiently varied of good if not excellent options.

Good selection of German cuisine. Excellent beer selection. Excellent waitstaff. Slightly overpriced for what you get but near to Playhouse Square so not unexpected. Surprising amount of gluten-free items if that is your need or preference.

Ludmila McNeeley

Everything here was exceptional! The food , the service, and the atmosphere. The kitchen and staff went above and beyond to accommodate my gluten allergy and even prepared GF bread to accompany my salad. Definitely recommend and hope to return soon

They had GF options in their menu. Their GF pizza was really good! It’s a LARGE portion compared to the tiny crust you normally get when ordering a gluten free pizza. The server was knowledgeable of my dietary restrictions. I’d go again! 🤍

Erin Moline

Amazing gluten free and vegan options, both for pastries and drinks! They feature delicious coffee with homemade vanilla syrup. Love the atmosphere. What more could you ask for?

I loved discovering this place where everything — juices, smoothies, and more — is freshly made to order. They also offer grab-and-go options from the fridge if you’re in a hurry. But what really stood out to me: they don’t use seed oils, preservatives, or refined sugars in their ingredients. Everything feels clean and thoughtfully prepared. They also have great gluten-free options! The space itself is airy and fresh, with high ceilings, spotless cleanliness, and a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Cool and chill background music adds the perfect touch.

Overpriced and does not have diversity of options. Just lacks anything a proper grocery store needs. Their vegetables/fruits are always in bad shape and terrible. They offer good local, alternative options for vegan, gluten-free diets but this would only work if there was a full-stocked grocery store right next to it. Terrible business model for targeting college students. i.e. Why is all of your honey $6<.
