I got the gluten free turkey club and it was one of the best sandwiches I have eaten since becoming celiac. The bread was amazing! Would recommend to anyone.

This will be my new go to! Separate prep area, separate case for baked goods, delicious drinks, and food is wonderful! So happy to finally have an option like this.

Cash register staff said cross contamination can happen in the kitchen because gluten and gluten free items are made in the kitchen together. Had a scone and it was dry and crumbly, also had. a sandwich and the bread fell apart and was really greasy. Service was OK but not great. not super friendly but could be worst

Gluten free case with multiple choices, all looked delicious. I opted for the breakfast sandwich on their gluten free focaccia, it was excellent.

Finally good to find a spot that has great breakfast and lunch options.

Got a blueberry scone, a chocolate chip pumpkin cookie, and a molasses cookie. All were delicious and safe. They have a separate GF case that is not close to the non-GF case.

I ordered the turkey sandwich and asked if it could be made gluten free. The server told me all sandwiches could be made gf. I told her that I had celiac and she said she would be sure to tell the kitchen staff and they would sterilize and change gloves. She did say there is always a risk of cross contamination because they have gluten products in the kitchen. I guess I should have listened because the sandwich definitely made me sick.

I didn't love the gluten free fococcia bread, thought it was too soft for my cold sandwich. But my husband really enjoyed his that was a hot sandwich.

Nice choices for sandwiches. Hubby had gluten free cinnamon roll and I had an expresso cookie Gluten free baked goods are in a separate case.

I didn't ask alot of questions about their cooking procedures to avoid cross contamination.

Really great experience and the food was incredible. I had a sandwich on the GF focaccia and it was amazing. Had a GF cookie which was big and soft. The server was gluten free as well and was able to easily answer my questions and make me feel safe. I even saw them change gloves and prepare the surface to ensure safety. This place is a must go if in Freeport
