Pretty good coffee and cute backyard outdoor seating. Slow Service and not a lot of bakery options. They have gluten free bread for sandwiches but probably not safe for celiac

Review
I really love this place so much. I am so sad to say that even though they have gluten free bread (that tastes amazing), it is toasted in the same toaster and prepared on the same surfaces as all of their other gluten products. There is a ton of cross contamination and it is not celiac safe at all. That’s why they got 1 star. So sad because I used to love all their food!

The gluten free bread was incredible and only available by the slice (was sad that I couldn’t take home a loaf.) they have some adorable GF desserts as well! Fantastic for brunch, and my non-celiac boyfriend loved it too!
