Top 11 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots to Enjoy in Laurel

First time here and had high hopes but was totally disappointed. Hubby and I both ordered the magnolia masterpiece breakfast. His with sunny side up eggs and chocolate chip pancakes, mine with scrambled eggs and gluten free pancakes. Both with cheese grits and the sweet and spicy bacon. After we ordered, we decided to add coffee. Waited approximately 30 minutes for the food. While we were waiting, the waitress brought coffee and gave us half a cup each. When the order was brought out, they had mixed up our orders and his pancakes were with my eggs and vice versa. They took it back and corrected it by just swapping the pancakes on the plates. When we finally got our food, the grits were rock solid and the cheese was NOT melted at all. The eggs were cold, the bacon was limp and had no taste, and the pancakes were lukewarm at best. There were no refills on coffee (which we paid over $3 per cup for). The staff was friendly but extremely slow. The place was a little busy but not packed. There were also containers in the floor catching water where the roof had leaked. I had such high hopes for this place, as it is hard to find places that have many gluten free options but this was totally unacceptable. I am so very disappointed and will NOT be back. I don't know if it was just a bad day or if this is the norm, but I had seen so many good reviews, that I couldn't believe my experience.

Was surprised to find a place that offered a gluten free menu especially even had gluten free bread. Doesn't happen often

I have eaten at Pause Cafe twice and both experiences were excellent! I had the Chicken Salad and The Mento sandwich (she offers gluten free bread too!). Love the atmosphere and staff!

Food was fabulous! I never post, so that says it all! I was so impressed that they also bread their onion rings and seafood in a gluten free corn flour, and they were soooooo good!!!! I had shrimp and grits and my husband had the roast beef poboy. Roast beef cooked low and slow in the crockpot for 3 days-out of this world! We raved and raved about the delicious flavors and love in that food while we ate and are letting you know, if you go to Laurel, do not miss this place. A little outside of town and 1000% worth the extra mile drive.

A great place to get a GLUTEN FREE chicken sandwich! Gluten free is very hard to find in Laurel & Chick-fil-A is always treat for me!
