If you are gluten free, please, just go! The breads are amazing (for some moments you might start cogitating that they aren’t gluten free!) i just loved and super recomend!

I haven’t been here for years. It was almost painful for me in the past. However, they have picked up on their efficiency and speed of service. I literally used to wait 20 to 30 minutes to have something warmed up to go. Now the workers here, mostly Latino and Latinaare not only efficient but super courteous! What a difference! I will definitely be back more often.

Bought a pumpkin spice tea loaf that was quite delicious. However, I also ordered an artichoke pesto open-face sandwich here and it was less than desirable. I waited 30 mins for the sandwich since it was pretty crowded (around 3pm on a Sunday). Didn’t mind the wait too much but when I got to my car to take a bit of it, the toast was soggy and it didn’t taste that great. With how beautiful and cute the bakery looked like, I expected a bit more. Not sure I’d come here.

Best and one of the only gluten free bakeries in the area!! Everything here tastes better than if it had gluten in it! The sandwiches are delicious, the staff is friendly and personable, and all other offerings are top notch. I’m a new regular!

3.5⭐️ Selection: insane, prices kinda high even for gf but not atypical..but doesn’t match the taste, which was only ok. There must be over 60 different gf items in this bakery! Some are other packeged brands, most are theirs. We tried a few things and they were ok good but nothing I need to return for. I’m a decent cook/baker so I know how good gf bakes can taste. I will say the vibe and setting is GREAT. Lovely spot with some seating indoors and out and an airy design. The white bread🍞was pretty good but again, a pretty straight forward gf bread. The best selling cinnamon bun🥮wasn’t as moist as I’d expected given moist is one thing gf CAN do well. It was a bit cakey and the icing was too sweet. I realized it was just a sugar icing vs the classic and expected, WAY tastier cream cheese style icing. That was a big miss for me which could’ve made this scrummy, as Mary Barry would say😉 Of course prices as elevated for the gf part and most seem pretty on par with the market. Bigger things like full cakes and cobbler trays were overpriced I thought. Check it out once. And if you’re easy to please (like most here giving a 5⭐️review) or celiacs and don’t bake or have kids, you’ll love this place!
