No gf bread offerings. I’m frankly disappointed in them, considering how popular of a place this is that makes their baked goods in-house. You can adapt most menu items to be gf by removing the bread and having over lettuce, but that really takes the joy out of coming here.

They do offer a couple GF baked goods, however I am a Celiac and I DO NOT feel comfortable eating here. The staff were kind to answer my questions- everything is made in the same kitchen, they say that they try to keep the GF pastries on separate pans/plates (but they are stored right next to the other baked goods in the display case…?), they’ll change their gloves if you ask them.

They do not certify GF any of their pastries because they don’t specifically purchase GF oats, or purposefully use other certified GF ingredients.

Overall great looking food and if I didn’t have Celiac I’d want to try their GF pastries! Wish they could accommodate allergies.

We tried a vanilla cream cupcake and their "Pop Tart." The cupcake was moist and delicious. A little firmer than a gluten cupcake, but the taste is very comparable. Good frosting. Not too sugary. Their Pop Tart was good. Pastry with a jelly middle layer. Tangy and sweet.

They have an extensive menu of sandwiches, breads and more but it is not gluten-free. Four stars for great quality but GF small selection.
