This is the most delicious food. I can’t remember the last time I had a gyro. The gluten free pita is spectacular. The chicken was seasoned to perfection. We also tried the old world panini with side of soup. It was incredible. Thank you!!! I haven’t even tried the deserts yet but I’m so excited to!

I order lunch here often - everything’s always delicious and I love having a dedicated gluten free space with delicious and affordable options. Always recommend ordering ahead for pickup but I’ve had good luck with ordering in person and getting my order fast

We really loved it!!! The Shrimp Po'boy was really good, the 3 eggs omelet with avocado mash was delicious and the Falafel was amazing!!! I wish there was a dine-in option. Finding a 199% Gluten Free place is tough. Wheat End Cafe is doing a great job, serving real food and not only Pastries. We will come back for sure.
