Top 6 Gluten-Free Bread Spots to Delight in Auburn

I never write reviews but I felt the need to share my experience. It’s so hard finding gluten free restaurants and broken egg is my go to spot for gluten free pancakes. I recommend this place to everyone but after today this is my last time eating here. I’ve been gluten free for years now due to my severe gluten allergy. The service I received today was absolutely horrendous. I was with my family we all sat together. My mom ordered a pineapple mock tail drink. Her throat and lips were irritated after drinking it. That happens sometimes with pineapple it’s a weird fruit. She told the waiter, he got the female manager and the manager was EXTREMELY passive aggressive the moment she walked to our table. My mom shared that she was having a slight reaction to the drink. It was delicious but she was afraid to keep drinking. The manager asked if we should call 911 in a sarcastic tone. My mom said no she would like to have the drink without the pineapple juice. My mom was very polite. The manager says well the drink you ordered doesn’t have pineapple juice. My mom was confused and I interjected… it DOES have pineapple juice that’s the first ingredient. The manager was gaslighting us until I requested the drink menu back and it had pineapple juice. The manager said whoops my bad. Lots of attitude and sarcasm from the waiter. After that situation, 10-15 mins later the food comes out I ordered three gluten free pancakes and I received only two. The waiter comes out walks over and addresses me directly.. he says hey do you want the third pancake and I said yes (of course I want the three gf pancakes I ordered??)… long story short what I received was NOT gluten free pancakes. I had the same reaction I always have when I’ve come into contact with gluten accidentally. Swelling. Almost like edema/inflammation it takes days sometimes weeks for it to go away. The same manager comes I told her what’s happening. She said oh no should I call the ambulance (SARCASTICALLY) I said I would call the ambulance myself I’m not having an anaphylactic reaction. I promise I would not be standing here talking to you if I was dying. But I always get gluten free pancakes this is not gluten free. The texture everything. Four bites in and I KNEW these were not gluten free. I didn’t care to know how or why but it was not gluten free and I was reacting. My parents confirmed they tasted exactly like their pancakes. She claims it is gluten free. Nevertheless, I told her I’m reacting. Not here to debate with you on if the pancakes are gluten free or not I’m actively swelling this never happens here and I just want a refund. I gave her my plate of pancakes back. She argues with me about what symptoms look like for her celiac best friend. All I wanted in that moment was a refund not a passive aggressive, insinuating I’m lying for no reason, nasty attitude. Never eating here again. That manager is bad news. Never had an experience like this before at broken egg.

Gluten Free Bun option as well as vegetarian/vegan options. Great sauces, however, there is no gluten free fryer.

The food was excellent. My wife, who has a gluten allergy, had ordered the gluten-free bread and fries. The manager caught the order and came to the table to let her know that the fries were not gluten-free.

The only place you can get a GF sub in town!! Staff are friendly! If you ask they will change gloves and use a clean knife and cutting board for celiac food prep!
