Switchbacks is a cute coffee shop with a surprising amount of gluten free and dairy free options. They have gluten free bread for toast, gluten free granola, and other options. The staff seemed knowledgeable about cross contact and was happy to modify dishes if needed.

Zaldy !

I like the coffee and gluten free pastries.

Today was my first time coming to this restaurant. Super cute local diner, Staff was super friendly helpful and super quick. I'm gluten intolerant and they have gluten-free options which I was very happy about and pretty tasty! My friend on the other hand had avocado toast and let's just say, We weren't too thrilled with it, it was lacking avocado slices all there was was just a light avocado spread and too many almonds which we thought was unusual to be on avocado toast. Other then that. Everything was great 👍

Amazing food, service, and adorable dog! Nicole was extremely kind to me and took extra care when making my wife's pizza. For context, my wife is lactose intolerant and has celiac disease. She loved the pizza and had no reactions! We'll definitely be stopping by again soon!

Solo the other night(around 1:30a.m. , I was delivering food, and I got a request to go pick up from IHOP. I accepted the request against my better judgment and off I went into the unknown, aka citadel mall/ chelton/ Platte and ect area 😅 I deliver on my electric scooter and was already at half battery charge, which is approximately 10 to 15 miles left on it, assuming the road is perfectly paved with no hills or stops. I had about 5 miles to go just to get to this Ihop and didn't really want to run out of charge at 2a.m. so unconsciously I became biased, and when I pulled up I was already regretting my decision. I went inside and instantly I was greeted with a smile of aroma that instantly knotted my stomach as my senses imagined the oil popping at a controlled rhythm as the bacon strips were delicately positioned in their boiling bath. My stomach unknotted and growled with a yearning and slight impatience as the host rounded the corner with a friendly and warm energy that was welcoming and comforting. I could hear a faint chatter and the random scratch and light clatter from the dinnerware and utensils in the dining area as I explained why I was there. She smiled and proceeded to hand me the order and asked if I needed anything else as she handed me the pen and pad that records my name and time for for pickup orders. I declined and smiled back, while scribbling my signature and time a bit more legibly. I handed the clipboard back and checked the order to confirm all the contents and slowly turned towards the door to exit. I paused ever so briefly as I was struck with a sudden longing to stay and embrace the warm atmosphere. I grinned and did a quick appreciative glance around the restaurant while pushing the door open and walking out. I was instantly engulfed in the smell of warm asphalt mixed with a hint of exhaust and fast food from nearby. Sirens blared as a few police cruisers raced through the intersection and almost in unison a noticeable but distant barrage of gunfire echoed briefly. I reflected back to my original assumption and how unconsciously I had formed a bias. I felt a little ping of guilt as I mentally took note of the lesson I had just gathered from, ⁷ Excellent service, atmosphere, food, The crew was communicating well and just in general, stopping at this Ihop lifted my spirits making the rest of the delivery quite smooth! Keep it up Ihop Team l, was impressed and grateful for your guys refusal to not be a product of the environment. Hats off to you 😁💯💪🤘🫡 P.s. wheelchair accessible, kid friendly in the daytime and loads of menu items and entrees on the menu including a vegetarian and gluten free options and ect. Prices weren't bad either. The only thing is the parking lot is small and kinda rough with the building itself separating the lots from side to side making it a little confusing.

Good neighbors is a hip and THE spot in Colorado Springs. The space is open and modern, and it’s a great place to people watch. Great place to come to meet someone for coffee or brunch. Also, perfect for families with a playground outside for kids to play on. The menu has many options for those who are gluten free.
