Lovely place with gluten free and dairy free options. Coffee was excellent, relaxing atmosphere, good and safe food. Worth the small drive off the highway. Staff knowledgeable about allergies.

I get a gluten free treat from here about every other week. Very tasty!! The staff is friendly and they use separate utensils to grab gluten free items from the display case. The owner/baker is very conscious about cross contamination when making gluten free baked items.

Wow! As a new transplant from NWFL where there are very few safe places to eat, this bakery and its staff are so refreshing!! Not only is the food delicious, but the staff are knowledgeable and go out of their way for celiac customers (and for my DF child also!). Highly recommend!

Cute local place with some variety of gluten free. We ordered the banana caramel crepe, some biscuits, and macarons. The macarons were delightful. The crepe looked amazing but the sauce and the crepe itself were so lackluster, I should have just enjoyed my photo instead of the food! And the biscuits had amazing texture and a real feel of a good old fashioned biscuit but lacked flavor. Even a pinch of salt would have helped but I couldn’t put my finger on what was missing. Butter?? Was it all shortening?? Hmmm. Wish I knew the recipe so I could have tweaked to perfection. If I lived local, I’d definitely try the place again. I bet there’s a home run in that place somewhere. They are also knowledgeable.

My favorite place for gluten free cupcakes! Never been disappointed and never been sick. The service is wonderful. It's a wonderful choice when you want to have a cupcake with a cup of coffee.

Nothing is gf. It says gf but after taking a trip to the restroom and looking at the kitchen I was horrified. The food was basically inedible in the first place. Offered money back. Declined the offer. Then got to the car looked at my cup of tea. Researched the cup. Made from wheat. Do not eat here if you're gluten free.

Been here many times-Beth & Sue do a great job of making tasty food with real ingredients. They have extensive keto & GF baked goods & offer a wonderful lunch menu, as well. I love supporting a small business who goes out of their way to help me enjoy a great meal that won’t make me sick later!

I purchased the gf vegan cinnamon roll, keto sugar free cinnamon roll, and gf oatmeal Sammy. I preferred the gf cinnamon roll and my bf preceded the keto cinnamon roll. We both loved the oatmeal Sammy! Better than the original!

Fantastic! If you don't order the the tomato dill soup, you will regret your decision while everyone else around you is humming every time they take a spoonful. The GF bread is great as well.

Not a gluten-free dedicated bakery. However the proprietor let me know that right up front. They had three flavors of gluten-free cupcakes available. Chocolate vanilla and the flavor of the week which was Keylime pie. Both the chocolate and vanilla were un-iced and you could add whatever flavor of icing you wanted on top.

Absolutely DELICIOUS GF cupcakes that they can pair with countless icing choices. They keep them on hand and if you call ahead they will get them prepared for you. They go amazingly well with any of their coffees. The staff are all very friendly and just a delightful little shop. They do carry GF breakfast items, haven't tried because my daughter and I just can't resist the cupcakes. 2 pleased celiac's!! :)

This organic cupcake shop keeps no-gluten-ingredient cupcakes on hand for customers with intolerance or allergies. For breakfast, they also use Bob's Red Mill gf oats, bake gf quiche, and have gf granola you can add to their yogurt & fruit parfaits.
