I will try again cause I've heard really great things. Unfortunately today's experience was not positive. 45 min to get water, 1 hr 10 to get food. 3 tables on patio, all of us several times had wrong food brought out and taken away. My lunch guest was celiac and did get hit with gluten. Chicken sandwiches were cold and not good. Must say the fries were absolutely amazing.

NOT CELIAC FRIENDLY. My partner ordered gluten free food and was fed gluten via an unclean fryer. If your fryer has gluten and non glutenous stuff in it without separate oil, it is not gluten free. I see that this complaint has been made several times over several years, I think it is clear you don't care. The server was very nice!

It was so good we came here two days in a row! The best Mac and cheese I have ever tasted!!! As well as the menu being super kid friendly and extremely delicious. There was always parking even when it was packed! Everyone that works here is super friendly and how they decorate the place is just beautifly unique! There are so many options for gluten free and vegan! Great place for a family breakfast. And there are so many speadables and so many options. My sister likes how they give you such a great portion of the speadables. Only problem I had was that the food was so good that I couldn't not try to eat it all!!! I recommend so much best diner I've ever been too!!!

We ordered pastries from L&C Bakery for our wedding in Crescent Valley: hazelnut temptation, chocolate lovers (for the gluten free / dairy free) and raspberry macarons. I am French and the quality of these desserts is on par with what I would find at high end pastry shops in Paris when I lived there. They are delicious and subtle. Our guests were amazed. I have been in BC for 10 years now and simply put the only other place I found this level of quality and genuine "French dessert" taste is at Thierry's in Vancouver. In addition, Lisa and her team were very easy to work with, and very accomodating. They even made a special version of one of the dessert to accomodate the dietary restrictions of one of our guests. All that to say that if I could give them 10 stars I would!

My wife and I asked for drinks not on the menu - a cortado and flat white - and our barista made them to perfection. Excellent selection of gluten free baking - and very tasty. I’d highly recommend!

Awesome bakery, lovely caring staff. It is often hard to find places with many gluten free options but not here! And the staff were gladly accommodating with the meal I wanted too. Will be back next time I am in Nelson! Thanks so much!

We absolutely loved this place. We came for breakfast three out of fours days (and regretted the one day we didn’t come!), everything was wonderful. Very chill vibe, great food, and tons of books and records to browse when you’re done :) They also have gluten free alternatives for pretty much anything on the menu - gf waffles and sandwich pictured here. Highly recommend!

Order 2 medium pizzas to be delivered. One ham & pineapple gluten free the other meat lovers regular crust. Cost was 59$ and it was not worth the cost. Pizza tasted cheap and the meat was bottom dollar. Wouldn’t recommend. The gluten free crust was a definite no go for us. It was very bland. However great customers service & quick delivery. The pizza was just not for us.

For people who are Celiac it is not a Gluten Free kitchen, everything is done in the same fryer. Food is good but!! The menu need to specify it’s not gluten-free it is gluten friendly!!! I was so excited see all the GF options and have the GF food as it says on the menu but when I showed up and asked they said “it is not a gluten free kitchen” which is very upsetting. For peoples health the menu should say somewhere on it or say on the website it is not a gluten free kitchen and only gluten friendly, only one fryer.
