We ordered our food for pickup. They assured us the side of potatoes were gluten free. My food was clearly labeled. It was in the same bag as non gluten free items but everything was wrapped so no big deal for me. Bagel was good for a gluten free bagel. Breakfast sandwich as a whole was amazing and the potatoes were delicious. We went back a couple more times and still have positive things to say! They read the notes. I asked for non- dairy cream cheese In the notes and they did it (we just paid the difference).

The only thing that I didn’t like was in a wrap I bit into a ton of mustard but that’s just nitpicky.

From a gluten-free/ dairy free place they were amazing!!!

SO MANY BAGELS!! They are dense and a little smaller than “normal” bagels but are so very tasty. I got a bagel sandwich (with added cream cheese) and was in heaven.

Lots of gluten free options - specialty coffees, smoothies, breakfast sandwiches, bagels, salads, bowls, and sandwiches. I got a salt bagel with bacon and chive cream cheese and a purple rain smoothie. Smoothie was pretty run of the mill, bagel was really tasty (but small), and the cream cheese was good, although i wish the ingredients were blended (chives and bacon were just put on top). I have very severe reactions to minor cross-contamination and I feel great! Would love to go back again.

Amazing! Are the bagels small? Yes. But are they great and Celiac safe?! Also yes ha. And they sell bags of them from the freezer at a reasonable price! Love it. Everything GF cooked separately.

This place is a gem! Someone who works there (owner? chef? not sure) has celiac and GETS IT. Kids were thrilled to have gluten free bagels (many flavors available, including snickerdoodle!), smoothies, and tomato soup. I had a falafel wrap which I haven’t had in FOREVER- delicious. Everything clearly labeled. Will definitely be going back here! Got GF donuts at a place next door afterwards as well.

I went here twice while traveling back and forth through the area. Both occassions were weekend days. The first time was around 11AM or 12PM and the place was bustling.

I ordered falafel in a gluten free wrap (tortilla). The person taking my order asked if it was for an allergy, and I said yes. I appreciated the ask because it gave me a way to make sure they are alerted to the importance of avoiding cross-contamination. The meal was well-proportioned and filling. It also looked good and when it first came out I had that moment of wondering if it was truly gluten free (though I knew it was once I bit into the tortilla).

I am not a fan in general of any gf tortillas but Mission tortillas because I find they tend to be dry and lacking in flavor, and that was the case here. I wished for a gf pita instead. Likewise, the falafel was more chickpea than herb, which made it less flavorful than I was hoping. It was also on the dry side. But put together with the tomato, lettuce, and sauce, I still enjoyed my meal very much. I had it with a lime soda (which I found was gf by Googling) and left happy.

(There isn't recycling offered for bottles, though.)

The second time I went was around 1:15 or 1:30, which is 30-45 minutes before closing. I rushed to get there before closing. It was much less busy, but for whatever reason the person taking my order seemed less aware/attentive and did not ask about whether this was gluten free due to an allergy. When I told them, they seemed almost confused/didn't seem to register the information as significant, but I am pretty sure they still marked it down. In general, it was just slower, less friendly, less attentive service.

I had been determined to stop back by for an egg sandwich on a bagel because the stores near me carry so few bagel options. I was excited from the other reviews, knowing this place had a dozen (it was definitely less than that, but still more selection than I would get at my local grocers). I ordered an egg sandwich on a poppyseed bagel, and they kindly agreed to substitute some sprouts and pickled onions for the meat (I am vegetarian).

I also was going to be driving for a while, so I ordered curry noodles to go so I'd have something to eat later on my trip. In the end, it was those noodles that I loved. Though the to-go container lid melted from the heat of the noodles before the container even given to me, that also meant they stayed warm until I opened them. I am almost afraid to ask if the curry is actually vegetarian (many curries contain fish products). If I lived locally, I'd stop by for noodles whenever I could.

As for the sandwich, I was not a fan of the bagel. As someone else posted, they are small, dense, and just not super tasty. Also, my idea of adding sprouts is not recommended because the sprouts had an especially strong flavor that conflicted with everything else in the sandwich. But those pickled onions were absolutely delicious, and I would totally eat them on their own lol. It was especially relaxing to eat on outdoor tables with live music playing nearby. Even though it was hot, I enjoyed the whole experience. (Note: there is limited seating both indoors and out, but I was able to get a spot even when it was busy.)

Full disclosure that I did have a reaction on my travels after the second time, but I was stopping at other places, and I am 99% sure my reaction is from a different place I ate.

They have a gf owner! 5 stars for safety and the amount of gf options, but the bagels were pretty small, dense, and underwhelming. I was happy to hear of a dedicated gf toaster and dairy free cream cheese, but these bagels should be eaten fresh and don’t hold up a day later. Also the orange chocolate bread was absolutely INCREDIBLE.

I’ve had GF breakfast burritos and sandwiches from here a few times! They’re always delicious and I haven’t had any problems. The staff is incredibly nice and it’s a cute shop and they have a coffee bar too. Please be advised if you’re extremely sensitive that they do not have a dedicated GF kitchen and they’re a small shop, so cross-contamination is possible.

Loved the GF bagels! They had at least 5 different kinds of GF bagels and so many GF options! Coffee bar, smoothies and juice bar. And a cute store to buy a few eclectic things. A small window bar to sit at and a few tables outside to sit and enjoy your meal. I loved all the options and they are VERY good about cross contamination!

They have a separate toaster and CC procedures but also bake on site so risk of flour in the air. More gluten free bagel options than regular!

Finally a place with a selection of gluten free bagels!!! They had pumpkin, plain, cinnamon raisin, tomato basil and many more. So delicious and soft. I got the pumpkin one with cream cheese. They are a little on the smaller side so maybe get 2 if you’re really hungry!
