The flavors are actually pretty good but you really really need to be careful when ordering here. They try their best to ensure you won’t get glutened, but my partner has been glutened twice. These were on occasions where they did collaborations with other bakeries or establishments meaning there were pastries in the area. It’s a great alternative for dairy free folks but my partner hasn’t been back since. Also some flavors contain an oat base (which I think are gf oats), but also you may want to be careful with. Also others have nut or coconut bases so just really really do your homework if you have additional allergies.Their instagram and Facebook are usually good at responding to you. So it’s just a real tossup how to rate. Good staff, not solid confidence in glutening.

Very unwelcoming. Staff was blunt and sarcastic when I asked questions about GF and precautions re: cross contamination. Staff only stared at me when I stated that could not have any gluten. We ended up walking out and not purchasing anything from this establishment as I felt that they could not safely provide for someone with celiac.

I got lavender and vanilla ice cream in a vegan/gf cone. I told them I had celiacs and then the gal behind the counter told the person preparing the ice cream to change their gloves. To my knowledge, all the ice cream is gf/vegan including the cones, it’s just some of the toppings that aren’t gf. Really, really great ice cream!!
