Absolutely fantastic!
All day weekday happy hour with $5 mimosas (special with pomegranate liquor!) and bloody Marys, and almost everything can be made gluten free. The gluten free Cinnamon pancake was just out of this world delicious. Bravovado toast was a treat. Can't recommend this place enough.
They are very good at offering options for a variety of diets, but experienced some discomfort after. Wouldn’t recommend anything from the kitchen (they have gf wrapped pastries) for anyone with celiac.
I ordered the French toast, gluten-free breakfast and ordered my eggs over hard and the edges were so crispy. I had to cut it with a knife. The bacon was too crispy. The French toast was good however. Service was good. She was very attentive.
Both of us are gluten free and im also dairy free and egg free. Not only were they able to accommodate us, the menus were very clearly labeled and we felt great after eating there. The staff were amazing as well. Can't wait to go back! Highly recommend!
Overall Rating 4.5
Urban Egg is that brunch spot if you're in Colorado Springs. The vibe is welcoming, the menu is stacked with unique options (including GF-friendly ones), and the staff? 10/10.
I ordered The Cure (it's a pineapple, vanilla, OJ, coconut water bev) and yes, it did cure me. Light, refreshing,, juicy, and not overly sweet. Also had the hazelnut cold brew, which was super tasty and gave me life.
For food, we went with the Denver Bot Chicken Benedict Bliss. Originally thought it could be made gluten-free and was sad it couldn’t be, but they baked it for me instead and it was still so good. The flavors were spot on, and now I’m just out here dreaming of a GF version with that crispy fried batter. Manifesting that for next time.
Also tried the Ultimate Breakfast Sando with turkey bacon + avo. Solid sandwich, but I’m a thick sourdough or croissant for breakfast sando kinda person, so the bread wasn't exactly my thing. Still tasty, just a personal preference.
Overall: amazing staff, thoughtful menu, and tons of great GF options. Which isn’t always easy to find. Would def come back (and next time I’m trying a pancake flight).
We are celiacs and traveled to Denver for family. We were super excited about trying this place, but we walked in and the place was DISCUSSING!! The guy working there was very mean and their selection was very low and not what it looked like on the website. The guy was being sarcastic the whole entire time. The kitchen workspace was visibly very dirty. We are very strict celiacs and he was not wearing gloves and offered us bread out of a random plastic bag . he was touching it with his bare hands, and that was a major health concern for us. Do not recommend coming here!! and it’s safe to say we will never be coming back.
We have been very fortunate to have Jennifer h. As our server. We don't frequent urban egg a lot . However the last 3 visits we have had our food served by Jennifer. She remembers my gluten allergy and my husband's spicy tastes. She is always helpful and patient even in a rush in the very busy morning . She is a bright spot in the midst of the noise of the cafe. She is an asset to.the restaurant and company. I gave a 3 for atmosphere due to the noise of customers which I understand is because the food is so delicious !
Great little breakfast and brunch shop. Cozy atmosphere. Saw them really cleaning down the benches and tables which was really nice. The omelettes were very good and so were the pancakes. All pancakes and waffles can be made gluten-free which was why we went there. We love this place
It’s order at the front, then they bring food to your table. The menu has many options for whatever you could be in the mood for. Lots of gluten free and vegan options. The veggie benedict with a side of potatoes was delicious. All the ingredients were perfectly seasoned and fresh. The specialty coffees here are great too. The reason it is 4 stars and not 5 is due to the consistently miserable staff you are presented with. It has never been a welcoming atmosphere every single time we have come. I hope this can change considering the food is fantastic.
Not Celiac safe. While they do have gluten free items on the menu, the kitchen is very small and cross contaminated. I got a salad, thinking it would be safe and I was extremely sick from it for a long time. I'm thinking that flour just settles everywhere. Very good food. Not safe for people with celiac.
My last trip to the pancake House was a bit of a letdown. The food was uninspired. There are places where you can get a much better breakfast for the same price . With food service and atmosphere all getting three stars. You might wonder how or why I'm giving it four stars. It gets four stars for carrying gluten-free pancakes. They were one of the first in the area and that will always give me a soft spot with regards to them. Nothing there was bad, but it was uninspired. My wife disagrees with this review, she thought it was fantastic. I think what's going on here is my tastes have changed as I've gotten older and can't just scarf down a breakfast of pancakes with syrup.
Urban Egg food is amazing, especially if you are celiac/gluten free! There are many options and they follow cross contact safety protocols. Have eaten here multiple times and never been sick afterwards.
Great food the gluten free options were great. Our Server Jen H was so sweet and amazing. The only complaint I had was the eggs we got were a little overcooked and cold.
An extensive menu with options for gluten free in toast, French toast or pancakes. A small uncharge but so nice to have the options. Large portions and inexpensive so a great value. Food tasted great as well.
I sat outside, the service was excellent, there was no wait Monday morning at 10:30 and the food was so amazing! I almost couldn’t decide between all of the delicious eggs Benedict options. The gluten free bread was super tasty as well!
Two thumbs up. Newly DX’d at celiac so still not really sure what I am doing yet. The waitress was super helpful and I had an awesome GF meal that finally left me feeling full and happy! The GF pancakes were a must. Tasted exactly like regular pancakes. Will definitely be back!
I went there about a year ago. Very small kitchen and do not recommend for people with celiac. I was sick all day after eating the questionable gluten free waffles.
Great breakfast place with lots of gluten free options. The blueberry pancakes were delicious. And the extra thick cut bacon was exceptional. My husband enjoyed his omelette. Pretty big portions.
Awesome vegan diner! So many great creative options and extremely accommodating to a wide variety of diet needs! Lucky enough to be able to eat what I enjoy and its always a great experience. They are currently doing rotating and evolving dinner options on the weekends and their posts on social media drew me in for the hamburger pie with a side of tater tots. They also had a gluten free carrot cake moon pie that was simply amazing. Counter seating, and a couple booths inside make it a cozy and inviting place in the shoulder and winter seasons while the large outdoor garden area makes it a phenomenal place to visit in the warmer months as well.
We love the big breakfast at Bon Ton Cafe! We enjoy sitting out on the sunny front patio. The service is always excellent, as is the food.
They have gluten free pancakes!
We loved Grandpa's. They had several gluten free options that is what brought us in over the years.
With our recent visit we got 2 sides of toast this totaled to 11.00 for 4 pieces of bread. We understand a up charge but seriously. Our meal between 2 people with water was 40 this is to expensive and we will be preparing food at home .
New favorite breakfast spot! Have lived nearby and just never went in - now I will go often! They have a great selection of food and drinks. Honestly the best chai I’ve had in a while. I’d go back just for that! Delicious breakfast and decent gluten free toast, which is always nice to find. The scramble was delicious. They had lactose free milks to choose from as well. Highly recommend this spot!
If you are a health conscious person and want quality this is not the place. We chose this place because it said they had fresh juice and they were out of some of the ingredients. I have never left a bad review but the food was not good. I asked for butter and they brought margarine , gluten free pancakes had a terrible taste. Place could definitely use some cleaning.
Wow!!! What a treat!!! Gluten free chips, fried in a separate fryer, and beautiful portions!!! Excellent and attentive service!!! I love that the menu has gluten free items marked!!!!
I had a gluten free waffle that was awful. It was tough and doughy and bitter. I make them at home with almond flour and they are light and wonderful. The next day I tried a pancake and while it was cooked better it was bitter and tough. I won't be trying them again. The plus was as a celiac I had no reaction!
