I LOVE this place. The space is super large, clean and open. The service is great. And the ciders are solid. I like that they are constantly rotating and trying new ones out. But if and when they are too weird for me, they always keep some on the menu permanently (the pedestrian cider is a fav). I have celiac and there are plenty of GF options and staff are always helpful in making sure nothing is cross contaminated.

Classic Chicago experience with wonderful GF food! I spoke to the manager who assured me that all their meats and sauces are gluten free. They have a dedicated fryer so I was able to enjoy the delicious fries. I also got the coleslaw and beans as a side! Really great experience.

My favorite dish is the Pad See Ew - you can ask for it gluten free! The parking lot is a little small but nice to walk to if you live close. Never had any issues ordering.. try them out!

Best Italian in the neighborhood with excellent, precise service. You don't find places like this in Chicago anymore! Outstanding courses, LOVED the Dover Sole and Stracciatella soup!!!! Holy smokes. Gluten free options noodles/sauce for extra $3 each, will use separate cookware if asked.

Thank you to the morning crew at store 2568! Was having an underwhelming morning until I walked through their doors around 7:30am today. The morning team is truly amazing and work well together. Only came in for a breve and a drip, left w. some gluten-free goodies and a sample of the Iced brown sugar oatmilk shaken esspresso... which I fully intend on getting next time, and a smile. Upbeat, welcoming, helpful w. Dietary suggestions, and super fast! Plus my breve was well crafted. You are the best part of my morning commute. ;)
