Review


We loved this bakery so much, we went back for another round of goodies. Everything is clearly marked gluten free (and vegan). The toaster is not dedicated gluten free, but the staff was upfront about that and very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. We got the (untoasted) focaccia, and it was SO yummy—I took slices to go for picnic sandwiches. My (celiac) son and (dairy free) daughter loved the Samoa cookies and lavender brownies. I loved the build your own smoothies (Mac nut based - extra yum).

Ironically, we didn’t love the coffee, but I highly recommend this spot for all other goodies! (They also have breakfast sandwiches for the non-Celiacs in your life!)
