Black Sheep Bagel Cafe

Best gluten free bagels I’ve had. I always tell them I’m celiac and they grab a new tub of aioli to avoid cross contamination. Even though they’re always busy, the servers are super nice and very careful, using a separate toaster and prep station.

Great vegetarian options too! I love The Favorite.

Always excellent service. They use a different toaster for the GF bagels so they take a little longer, but always worth it!

Used to have really great bagels made in-house but stopped due to cross contamination concerns. Now they use Udi’s which is better for cross contamination, but definitely not worth paying a premium for…

Great bagels with cool combinations. I’ve had the lox, the deviled egg, and maple bacon fig. They have a dedicated toaster and staff are super nice. I have never gotten sick and go there once a month!

Bagels were not the tastiest - I got the plain bagel with cream cheese and the bagel is a bit hard and chalky. Not horrible, just not great. The staff are super nice and the space is a fun vibe, though! Would recommend for a coffee!

I’m not SUPER confident in the celiac safety, but they did say they have a dedicated toaster and I didn’t get sick from it. Tasty bagel! I’d recommend that you make sure with the staff member that they’ll change gloves, keep separate, etc.

They offer gluten free plain and sesame seed bagels. It sounds like they have a dedicated toaster in the back but I opted to get my bagel untoasted. I had the Lox 2.0 toast and it was so good! I’ve been here 3 times and haven’t gotten sick! but it seems like a lot of prep happens in a shared space so be careful for CC if you are sensitive
