Tom Davies

Holy cow, I can't say enough good things about this wonderful place!!! I have Celiac, and this is the first place I've been where I've felt completely safe to eat. No reservations. No concerns. And the food is fantastic! So is the cider! The atmosphere is amazing, the employees are incredibly friendly, and it's clvery clear this is a popular spot for many people to visit. Thank you for this gift to those of us with this horrible disease. You cannot know how profound it is to have a place like this to go to.

Marlene Meiring

Pricey but great food. Awesome gluten free options.

Kimberly Ippolito Leonard

Safe for celiacs! They have separate prep areas for their gluten and GF foods, dedicated pans, and make everything from scratch. They have a shared fryer, but serve corn tortilla chips that are made off site in a GF facility.

Veronica Brush

Great coffee and really good gluten free pancakes! Our waitress Sydney was fun and friendly! Definitely recommend this place.

Florida 40

We stopped in for lunch and had personal size pizzas that hit the spot. Both the pizza dough and the gluten free dough were delicious 😋

Donna Starr

Best pizza ever!! My son, due to his illness, can't eat the food that he used to. We went back to Mod Pizza, and to our surprise, they had gluten-free, dairy, and other ingredients that my son could eat. He didn't get sick, and this was probably the happiest that we've seen him for over a year

Jen Wallen

Delicious, no gluten in the store, dairy free options and friendly, quick service

Shannon Hughes

Our favorite breakfast spot in fort collins for years now. Great gluten free options and their homemade breakfast sausage is the best!

Julie Mavros

This place is so delicious! The staff is amazing and super friendly and helpful. After recently figuring out that I am intolerant to gluten had a hard time finding places with many options and almost everything here is gluten-free!

Brooke Larson

I am Celiac and our waitress went above and beyond to ensure that my meal was Celiac safe. It was such a great night.

Ryan Haines

We only get to come out one or two times each year and it is always amazing food! Our first time eating at the bar and the bar tender was very helpful and friendly. We might try for the sushi side of the bar next time. The food came out quickly and it was just the right portion to share with 2 people. Our sushi was prepared gluten free which they take very seriously. All the sushi was tasty and we love the Colorado Crunch roll! Highly recommend this place for people who are new to sushi because they are very helpful with options and they have a lot of variety. We will definitely be back again soon!

Nicole K

Ordered 2 Gluten Free Woodland Pizzas and one with Vegan cheese - 2 BeetJuice drinks at 3 in the afternoon - costs with tip $86. Way cheaper at Crazy Karl's for gluten free/dairy free and a much larger pizza. It was tasty but way overpriced. Cloth napkins don't match how the restaurant is rundown with the floor upheavaling, the curtains sun faded and one burned, the floor dirty, Christmas decor up in mid February.

Kai Nazgul

Delicious and plenty of GF + vegetarian options. I had a buckwheat crepe and that was perfectly done, and no symptoms of being glutened later on (celiac).

I wish I could eat gluten, but it wrecks me. Hunan makes some darn good GF Sesame Chicken. I wish it was a little more crispy, but so good! Boneless chicken and ribs apps are great as well

Trina Gribble

Wow! We went for dinner tonight. It was horrible. We should have known when there was nobody at the host stand when we walked in. They weren't busy at all. The host sat us down In a half booth half table when we asked for a booth. He said most of the restaurant was closed. Then came the waiter, Kevin. We go here often and we ordered right away. He brought our drinks. I ordered just gluten free fries as they have a dedicated fryer. My fries came out ice cold.. we sent them back, they came out cold again. Finally after everyone else had their food mine came out hot. But like maybe 10 fries. We asked for more fries and the waiter clearly annoyed ,didn't refill our water but did the table next to ours. Finally we just payed and we're leaving when he came back and said it was going to be at least another 8-10 min. Which i heard him say nevermind to the kitchen. They didn't start them at all the 10 min we waited already. We will not be returning! Terrible all the way around except the one server which i didn't get his name but he brought our food out. He was pleasant , friendly, apologetic and genuine.

M Baker

My husband and I had dinner here and it was outstanding from start to finish. Our waiter, Jeffrey, did an amazing job making recommendations for us. We started with the Calamari. It was outstanding. I have Celiac Disease, so being able to get gluten free Calamari was a real treat. The tangy sauce on the Calamari put it over the top delicious for us. We also shared a wedge salad, which was on point! We had the Filet Mignon with Scallops and took Jeffrey's suggestion to swap the side dish for an order of the GF Carbonara (for an additional charge). It was AMAZING. I loved it so much I was wishing I had room to order a 2nd dish of Carbonara. We finished it all out with the Chocolate Hazelnut Torte. It was just as amazing as everything else. Next time we're in Fort Collins, Rare will be a must stop location for us.

Jenn N

Really great tacos! Staff knowledgeable on gluten free and celiac friendly foods

Amber Pope

Great food Allen allergy friendly! I’m vegan and gluten free and they made a delicious plate of enchiladas to die for!

Allison Filtz

Kyle always goes above and beyond every time I come in. He is so nice and makes sure I get exactly what I want. He is always very careful with cross contamination since I am gluten free and makes great recommendations for trying new things that I might like!

Levi Lugo

Such a vibe inside! I’m not the biggest sports person but music was great! We had the chips and guac, mushrooms Swiss burger, and a western burger. With gluten free bun options. The food was fantastic. Our waitress was so polite.

Marissa white

All in all a great visit. Gluten free Buns were best I've had I think... service was good. Kinda expensive for a basic burger though!

Serafin Nunez

Delicious food. Very accommodating for the gluten-free crowd with a clearly marked menu. Service was friendly and attentive. I would definitely return!

Jesse Ihnen

Spoons had great food. I love that the options are clearly labeled with gluten-free and vegetarian options. The sandwiches are pretty good, but the soup really shines. My only gripe is the layout I've the last few years. By switching the ordering process up, they have created confusion, and a rushed atmosphere. It used to involve moving down the line and paying at the end. This allowed customers to see and make their selections as they were ordering. Now, customers order first, then wait. Even if this is somehow more efficient, it feels less efficient and less fun overall.

sara Murdock

Upscale diner vibes. Coffee mug club. Huge cinnamon rolls. Excellent service and amazing food. They even have alcohol, including spiked coffee drinks. Gluten free toast available. Expect it to be busy and loud, but yum yum!

Quite possibly the worst gluten free sandwich, I’ve ever had. A group of us out shopping for the morning, stopped at Jason’s deli for lunch. One group member had the muffalata sandwich which she claimed was close to authentic New Orleans as it gets, another had the BLT which she could almost find the one thin slice of tomato, but heaped with bacon. I ordered the managers special Grilled Cheese on gluten free (GF) bread and G.F tomato soup with chips. The sandwich arrived hidden in a go box and the soup in a go cup, no chips all arranged on a small plate. I was the only one in the group that received food this way, everyone else’s was served on a plate. The sandwich, exceptionally small, was rubbery and tough, there was nothing else on the sandwich, just two pieces of food service sliced cheese. The tomato soup wasn’t anything special with no basil flavor. I should have returned the food and demanded my money back. I’ve been gluten free for 25 years and g.f bread has come a long way in size, flavor and texture this was just very very disappointing, I left hungry. The restaurant is loud and not as clean as it should be. The self serve ice cream tasted off, the people delivering the food and bussing the tables looked overwhelmed.

Linsey Norton

Long time Avos fan, great for families and kiddos. They're pretty good about accommodating food allergies as well, with a house of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free, it's an easy option for a casual meal. Staff have been a bit surly at times, but reasonable service generally.

Evan Henke

Used to absolutely love this place, it was our "go-to" for pizza, Also, they have always had one of the better gluten free pies in town and the best Sicilian pie in town. I feel bad giving them 4-stars, but the signature taste and the "east coast" flair was lacking the few times we've ordered from here.

Mauro Mazzuca

Finding a place to grab food and found Elevated Sandwich. Im with my dad's sister and Aunt wanted gluten-free food and glad they served it. The sandwich we got were huge, fresh and full of flavors.

Enzo Rodriguez

Wave helped me get my order perfect for my daughter who has gluten allergies. Food was great thanks so much Wave.

Cara Romero

Incredibly delicious! I’d eat here everyday if I could. Clean atmosphere, great service, and the food is heavenly! Gluten free naan, I’m hungry and need more now!

Sophia Zabel

I'm so glad we found this place! Everything about it is great and I mean everything! My friend had the very well done plain hand pressed burger. I had the pink inside black and blue hand pressed on a gluten-free bun. I finished it off with a delectable and delightful key lime pie made in house! It's our new favorite place to go and we're from Longmont!

Tyler Gutshall

Let em start by saying the food is incredible and you should eat here. BUT I had the worst experience with the blonde girl taking orders tonight 3:39 pm 6/7. She didn’t know anything about the menu and took forever to take the order. I asked her if the side on tap was gluten free and she said “I have no idea do you want to try it?” I know she meant well but come on, doesn’t that defeat the purpose of needing to know if it’s gluten free? I bet you it took me 10+ minutes to order a burger while she was looking for the buttons on the register. Maybe she’s new or something but I almost considering not ordering and going somewhere else. This poor girl needs some more training before you put her out there alone. I haven’t got my order yet, I’ll update the review of it’s wrong lol

Julie “Julie S” Schonlau

We go here all the time and I need to eat gluten free. They are very careful when cooking gluten free. They have something for everyone and the manager Greg is great.

GN Henery

Gluten and Dairy free:Yes. They have a few selections of gelato that are dairy free. The coconut is amazing, though I am still hoping that they will make their pistachio in a vegan version (fingers crossed). The polenta and caponata is expensive but very tasty and safe for the wheat and dairy challenged. Service is usually pretty good the staff is friendly, but it does depend on who's working as to whether you get friendly and enthusiastic or lack luster but efficient. All in all this place is great, we come for gelato 2-3 times a month, While I couldn't eat it my wife says the lasagna was excellent and she says the mint chocolate gelato is the best dairy version. Coconut is the most amazing according to both of us though. If you are in city park stop by this little place. It's a delicious choice.

Teresa Brost

Excellent food. Great options for gluten free. Phenomenal service! I will stop there every time I'm on my way through Fort Collins.

Alicia Oro

Wow! A real hamburger+ friendly helpful staff, a clean environment and delicious food and gluten free buns on request too! Loved the burgers, fish, and the sundaes. A special shout out to Jackson today at the register counter He was very patient, kind with a sense of humor and customer service focused 100%. All the staff( servers, counter, cleaners) are friendly!! Everyone's uniforms are very neat and tidy too.

Victoria Johnson

We love how fast the food comes out and is reliably good. We sit at the bar, Sarah remembers that my husband is gluten free and knows our names and orders. There’s a lot of experienced people working here who make sure that they are consistent in giving customers a great experience. They work together well.

Sky Nelson

Their 1-5 spicy rating is perfect, few places can pull off being legitimately spicy while staying flavorful. Always great service with a good selection of vegetarian and gluten free options.

Gabrielle Henery

Dairy and gluten free options- Yes. The sushi is great, the edamame is delicious, highly recommend, remember to ask for it gluten free. The service here was very good as we had a large group that was rather needy, but our server remained friendly and playful and attentive. The biggest plus is that they have gluten free tempura. If you like tempura, this is a a great option.

On Cinco de Mayo, around 6:45 PM, my husband and I decided to visit your brewery to try the special Hibiscus Margarita. It was great to see Andrea, a former Envy patron, working behind the bar alongside another shorter woman with dark hair—unfortunately, I didn’t catch her name. We ordered barbacoa tacos and our first round of margaritas. It was extremely slow, yet the other bartender couldn’t even bring us our drinks, which we felt stemmed from a lack of effort. The margaritas were as advertised—made with Tres Generaciones Tequila. My husband went to order another Hibiscus Margarita along with some queso and chips. The other bartender did bring us the queso and chips, but we were disappointed. It wasn't great to find a pile of broken chip pieces hidden under a few larger ones on top. After that, she made my husband’s Hibiscus Margarita but swapped out the Tres Generaciones tequila for Espolon tequila, which is a less expensive option. Unfortunately, after just a few sips, my husband experienced a severe allergic reaction to that tequila, and we had to leave. Luckily, we got home in time for my husband to attend to this potentially life-threatening reaction. I want to commend Andrea, who was kind enough to comp our bill—though I believe she shouldn’t have had to take that on due to her partner’s shortcomings. If you want to thrive in a town filled with countless breweries, this is not the kind of service that will keep customers coming back. Very disappointing. REBUTTAL TO THE OWNER’S COMMENTS: It’s truly unacceptable that you're trying to blame this situation on my husband. He does not have Celiac disease. He had no idea he was allergic to the CHEAP tequila that your bartender substituted for the Tres Generaciones tequila listed in the Hibiscus Margarita ingredients. What should have happened is that she should have come to our table to explain that you were out of the Tres Generaciones tequila and asked if an alternative would be acceptable. That is what should have been done. Cutting corners and possibly endangering someone’s life is ridiculous. She should not be serving drinks if she does not have the decency to ask the customer if a change is okay. Perhaps, as the Owners, it's just a common practice to instruct your bartenders to use a cheaper tequila for the second drink, thinking customers won’t notice the difference. You charge the same price but incur lower costs for the business. That seems much more plausible. Your response only solidifies the fact that we will not be back, and others should be aware of the possible practices at your brewery.

Sitting on the back patio is like a small taste of wine country. The service was really good. The food was tasty. The portions are good. The drinks are delicious. We got right in at 4:45pm for dinner. They list out all of the gluten friendly dishes and the servers are clear when it is gluten friendly vs. gluten free.

JAn Whittet

Accommodated ten of us plus a dog on the patio. Even provided a gluten free menu. Great food and service.

David Rambhajan

Good food and great service. There are many many burger options on the make your own to please every taste, even vegetarian and gluten free. And the service was great!

Callahan Droitsch

We came in a large group of about 30 and they got us all of our food in about and hour! Our waiter was very attentive. There were a bunch of different options for everyone, including gluten free toast. Only critique would be the coffee selection is small. They ran out of their pumpkin pancakes which was disappointing because we all wanted to try them! But the regular pancakes were delicious…and massive!

Erik Carlson

Great menu with gluten free and vegan options

Kylie Castleberry

Absolutely love Butterfly! This has been a weekly stop for our household since I first discovered it 4 years ago. You can never go wrong here. The sandwiches are amazing—the focaccia bread is SO good, and if you’re gluten intolerant like me they also use good gluten free bread. My go-to is the lunchbox! It’s a sandwich, cookie (today was a fresh baked oatmeal raisin), a bag of Boulder chips, and your choice of drink—I suggest the hibiscus refresher. They also make great breakfast, awesome coffee, and refreshing and nourishing smoothies! This is hands down one of the best little spots in Fort Collins. Bonus?! The tomato soup. Best. In. Town.

Maddie Mae

One of my favorite lunch spots in Fort Collins—great "british pub" like atmosphere inside, and a lovely sunny outdoor space on a nice day. The service is always incredible here and they're great with my gluten allergy.

sara Murdock

Great little hole in the wall type spot! The staff was great. Service was quick despite the place being packed. Gluten free crust available. Sometimes they even have live music! Casual, fun, pretty good pizza.

Tyler Lucero

Wow! One of the best sandwiches I've ever had and a great root beer float. Great place to work or visit. Gluten free bread available as well!

Afton Forred

Excellent customer service and great food. The bacon wrapped dates are amazing. Plenty of gluten free and vegan options. I had a bison ribeye, asparagus, and smashed potatoes. All gluten free.
