Excellent

Here’s the thing: Northstar Cafe in Beechwold bills itself as a dedicated gluten-free facility—music to any celiac’s ears. The kitchen seems attentive, with staff calling out allergy orders and a fryer used just for gluten-free items, so you can finally enjoy crispy fries without second-guessing every bite. Still, some regulars have reported inconsistent staff knowledge and a few cross-contact scares at other locations, so it pays to be assertive about your needs. If you’re craving a breakfast sandwich with a bun that’ll make you do a double-take, this spot feels like a safe—and delicious—bet for most celiacs, but always keep that advocate hat on just in case.
