I enjoyed my first visit, having a restaurant completely dedicated to gluten-free options is fantastic. I also appreciated the attention to other allergies, it is very simple to understand the menu. I was very impressed with the quality of the food I received and the taste.

This restaurant is 100% gluten-free and soy free. They also offer options of dairy free nut free, vegan vegetarian, etc. It’s an amazing place for someone who has allergies. They also offer some Paleo type desserts. I attached photos. I love this restaurant. The food is amazing. The owner Brian is wonderfully kind and nice. They have specialty dinners about once a month on Fridays. You can get food to go. Check them out. They’re well worth the visit. One last thing I want to mention after having read some of the other reviews. Some people mentioned that the people behind the counter we’re not super talkative. Some of the reason behind that is Brian the owner hires people that have some learning or handicapped disabilities. He gives these people great opportunities that they may not have. So anyone coming to this restaurant should be patient. The food is definitely worth the wait and being kind.

Large variety of well made gluten free foods. It’s a relief to not worry if a food is truly gluten-free and safe for my Celiac needs. I enjoyed chicken and waffles in store with a hot mocha. The food and drinks were a delight. I ordered several baked goods to take home to the family and they were all a big hit. Friendly staff with great service!

Visited on a very busy Mother’s Day. Reservations were ready when we got here. Food was all amazingly good. Chicken and waffles – chicken was still juicy and waffles crispy outside. The crepe was crisp with generous filling. And everything was GF which, honestly, I’d never have known if I was doing a blind taste test.

Love this place just for existing but the food is also really good! It is amazing how nice it is to be able to eat a meal in a restaurant with zero anxiety over whether it has any gluten in it. They are always really friendly and I love that they have special events with different cuisines featured. The baked goods are making me fat, I cannot go there without getting one.

First restaurant my celiac wife experienced with 100% gluten free food selections and thus no fears of cross-contamination or use of questionable condiments. We tried the fried fish sandwich and dinner with a lemon crepe for dessert and everything was really good quality and tasted great. Little pricey for portion size but well worth our 60 mile drive each way for gluten free food made from quality ingrediants. Not a lot of seating space but open tables available when we arrived about 1p on a Friday. We will certainly return to try other interesting menu items soon.

I stumbled upon Cafe Avalaun when searching for a wedding caterer that would fulfill my wife’s needs to be gluten free and allergy friendly. After our first meeting with Chef Brian we fell in love and it has become a staple of our diet! They did an outstanding job catering our big day and for everything we got they were a very reasonable price. We have since used them for our baby shower, frequented their weekend pop-ups, and my wife orders lunch/brunch from them at least once a week while she’s at work. The staff have always been amazing and so personable. We truly feel like they have become an extended part of our family. We have been so glad to spread the word to our other allergy sensitive friends and family. Highly recommend everything on the menu. The coffee is to die for as well!!

My wife and I are traveling and wanted to find a place that would be celiac friendly. This might be the most allergy friendly restaurant we’ve ever encountered. There are plenty of menu options, and almost all of them can be made gluten free, dairy free, nut free, and vegan.

Update: I wanted to update my review to say I’ve been back multiple times and everything that I’ve had is amazing! I just went back for Sunday brunch takeout and had gluten and dairy free chicken and waffles. Yum!
