I am not in downtown Akron often and needed something gluten free and discovered the delightful bakery. I had the sausage gravy and biscuits, it was delicious. I also appreciate the wonderful service I received. I will definitely stop here again.

I had an excellent time at Melt bar and Grilled. When I mentioned I was gluten free, the bartender Megan, was happy to grab be a gluten free menu for me. She answered my questions and was happy to help. The food was delicious.

What a great little spot! They helped me find a gluten free option (most of the menu could be made GF) and the chai latte was delicious. The staff were all very friendly. They are a couple tables up front and more dining in the back. We'll be back!

Really, for a "fast food" chain, I've never come across a better restaurant. All locations I've visited have been top notch or close to it. I probably come to this one the most and I've had perfect service almost every time. I also am VERY PLEASED they offer Gluten free Buns!! They have been out for a while but its not expressed enough. We can enjoy a sandwich without removing the "bread". Thank you for maintaining what you stand for..

Absolute best breakfast in the Akron area. The red eye hash is my favorite with big chunks of corned beef. The benedict is amazing. Everything is always great. Lots of great gluten free options including omelets, hash browns (potatoes are NOT fried in shared fryer) and GF toast.

Cozy and popular breakfast and brunch spot. Absolutely love that they offer gluten free toast here. I usually get a breakfast sandwich and it hits the spot every time, but it is a bit on the pricey side when adding bacon and gf toast.

This is Copley's best-kept secret. The gluten-free muffins are fab - the regular and flavored cinnamon rolls are massive.

"GLUTEN FREE SHELLS!" says the menu. "GLUTEN FREE SHELLS!" says the cashier. "Flour tortilla," says the bag... Went with my wife for some DF/GF taco's. Turns out, despite it saying GF in bold on the menu, they are not gluten free. Also of note, they have missing items on their menu. And as for the "Avocado taco" you might assume it would come with fresh avocado. Unfortunately, they've opted to use processed avocado paste. Wasn't even acceptable. Just bad. Chicken taco was almost there. But the chicken was significantly overcooked. I ended up eating in front of my wife and she searched Google for another restaurant. Not the date we were hoping for. And I'm not sure the cashier understood that vegan cheese is dairy free.

I'm so glad I found this coffee shop chain. I tried this chain for the first time yesterday at a different Akron location and was shockingly surprised. Today I'm trying a different location over by portage Lakes. The presentation of the espresso macchiato was not as good at this location, but the flavor was spot on. My espresso macchiato was smooth and delicious. They make 95% of their simple syrups In House. The staff here was equally as friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. A lovely place to visit and get a cup of coffee or espresso. They use a medium Italian roast. I thought I always loved French roast was my favorite but this Italian roast is amazing. They carry fresh baked goods, including bread loaves that they make from scratch here. Everything in the store is made from scratch. I love that. They have a few gluten-free items too. Parking is easy they have a private parking lot and they have one space right in front of their store for to go Guests. The only thing I didn't like about this coffee shop is that they serve there to go coffee and Styrofoam yuck. I feel like that just ruins my coffee totally. I prefer to drink out of paper cups. Since I purchased an espresso macchiato and it's very small. I just got it in a nice regular tiny mug, and enjoyed it there and their great atmosphere. I would definitely come back.

If I could give ten stars to service I would. Jess made our weekend. My wife just found out she is gluten and dairy free and has never had a good experience eating out until now. Food was delicious and Jess our server took such good care of us. We are from texas visiting places to retire, and Akron moved 17 spots up the list because of the good food, and the people here like Jess that really show how awesome it is here. Thank you so much Jess for showing us that there are good folks no matter where you go! If you are in Akron and don't stop here, you are definitely missing out. Thanks again Jess!

Great place, cool menu but this was a awful waffle..I don't know if it was the gluten free make up or the weird cinnamon sugar but it all tasted like hot dirt..very disappointing. Waiter never even checked in on me (just cause I'm eating it doesn't mean I'm happy) I wish everyone else a better experience.

Came here for breakfast close to downtown Akron... The food was amazing, even though there were no gluten free bread options. The service was great and the owner even came over to greet me. Definitely will come here again.

My wife and I went here for anniversary because she loves tea. Food was great. For not being a tea drinker, I enjoyed the tea. Our server went above and beyond to make sure my wife could have a gluten free pastry.He did apologize for forgetting to bringing us our tea. That was ok. We weren’t in a hurry to eat and go. We were given a tour of their meeting room. We look forward to going back to try other dishes

As a person with celiac disease, I really appreciate how clear they are about what is gluten free. (According to the website, all the drinks except 1 were gluten free!) Makes it easier to try new things. Have had some complications with places like Starbucks and Dunkin' not having that information easy to access.
