The Good Egg

Best coffee in town! All the girls there are super lovely and bubbly plus there are many gluten free options. Also a great mission behind the place. Love your work 🐣🥚🩷

Beautiful spot. Friendly staff and the gluten free tiramisu pancakes where the best gf pancakes iv ever had, not hard and dense like usual ones, so fluffy and flavourful, which as a celiac makes me very happy.

Not safe for coeliacs/gluten free. I went here with my husband due to recommendations online but it seems there has been a change of ownership. They couldnt guarantee that their gluten free bread was safe so I opted for their bircher which was labelled gluten free on the menu (i presumed they used a gluten free alternative to bircher). When food arrived it was oats. I originally asked to swap it for something else but had 3 different staff members (and 1 chef) continually try and convince me oats were gluten free. Due to this I had 0 faith in any of their gluten free options so asked for a refund instead. I then had multiple staff members and another chef try to convince me it was gluten free. I eventually asked to look at the packet (to help show them that oats are not gluten free). They showed me the packet online saying wheat free (wheat free and gluten free are not the same thing, if they look at the back of this packet it will clearly say ‘contains gluten’). I honestly wish I could have got both mine and my husbands meal refunded. He couldnt enjoy his meal as he had to spend the whole time watching multiple staff members try to convince me to eat something I was allergic to. By the time he had finished eating I managed to atleast get my meal refunded. Please ask your staff to do a simple google ‘are oats considered gluten free in Australia’ this will clearly show that no, they are not considered gluten free and arent safe for coeliacs. Labelling them gluten free on the menu is illegal and needs to be updated asap. If i simply got the refund id be okay, but having multiple staff arguing with me (when im a nutritionist who has been coeliac for over 15 years) is so frustrating - it ruined my husbands meal too and was just a really embarrassing experience all round.
