Really delicious brunch and a good drink menu. The atmosphere of the vintage hotel is also really lovely. Our waitress was prompt and even without a reservation we were able to get seated fairly quickly on a Saturday which was great. It’s hard to tell online but they do offer gluten free replacements on some items including the avocado toast, but I’m not 100% convinced that it would be truly celiac safe (I’m sensitive not celiac so I was fine). The building is also not wheelchair accessible.

NOT ALLERGY SAFE!!! I told my server that I had a severe Gluten allergy and asked if any of the food I ordered could possibly contain gluten or be cross-contaminated. She acted annoyed by my insistence as if I was just trying to be trendy. She assured me that my food was, “safe from all gluten.” My gut instinct was not to trust it, and unfortunately now my gut is inflamed and I have been in bed all day burning. Urgent care will be next, because unfortunately you can’t trust the servers to check on any of the actual ingredients or be knowledgeable about food allergies at the Cafe at the Plaza. If you have Celiac you need to stay away.
