My family had a wonderful experience at Mom & Pop's! First of all, the dairy-free & gluten free options were awesome. Second, the staff was super friendly, everyone loved their ice cream flavors, and we enjoyed the outdoor seating! Delicious!!

Excellent food and wonderfully dog friendly on the patio. Jordan treated our dog like a new friend - we had a lovely time! (Lou recommends the peanut butter banana dog cookies!) Great gluten free selection clearly listed on the menu as well.

We are so in love with this place! Came here on a Sunday morning as the sun was streaming through the top windows. The feel is so amazing. We are dairy and gluten free, and although they do not have gluten free bread to sub in, we were able to compose an amazing plate of potato fritter, with arugula, roasted mushroom, tomatoes, avocado, and a poached egg. Magnificent! Our conventional food family members also enjoyed steak and eggs, biscuits and gravy, and eggs Benny. A perfect ending to our Mankato weekend. Thank you to all of the staff at Nolabelle!

Madi was an amazing server!! Super prompt and respectful. Amazing experience. I have celiac disease and she was so understanding of my allergy. She made sure the cooks could make my food gluten free and made me feel very comfortable with my situation. Ps. GET THE BRUSSELS!!!!! The best Brussels sprouts I’ve ever had. Would definitely come again!!!!!

The staff at the Coffee Hag are very kind and considerate. I was looking for a gluten free lunch and they were helpful with the menu and offered me a sample of the soup and potato salad before I made my purchase. The coffee is delicious and the atmosphere can't be beat.

Great deals and prices. Good selection but wish there were more organic and gluten free options. Store is limited on space so I think they are doing very well with what they have.

We are so thankful to have Pita Pit! I have a wheat allergy, it's so hard to find safe food. I have gotten very ill from cross contamination at other establishments in town. The gluten free wraps and salads are amazing! My whole family loves Pita Pit. Everything is always fresh. I forgot my mask, I called from my vehicle and Kesha was happy to do curbside pickup. Pita Pit for life!

My husband and I now live out of state but we LOVE this little restaurant. We have many fond memories of past dates spent here. Some of our all-time favorites are their shawarma pizza (which you can order gluten-free) and the charcuterie board. We miss this place! It’s a Mankato gem.
