Both a cafe & a food store - lots of gf options. I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese on a gf English muffin and the rosemary home fries. Amazing!! I felt so normal eating breakfast sandwiches with my friends.

Driving into North Conway and noticed gluten free advertised already - thought this is great! Starving from the long drive so stopped into the cafe and ordered the turkey pesto gluten free sandwich - oh how I wish I hadn’t! First night in North Conway ruined as my so called gluten free sandwich clearly was not gluten free!! Really did suffer so please don’t risk it and try this place! No consideration given to allergies!

This is a health food store that carries absolutely everything you could ever want for Gluten-free. But also makes great gluten free or dairy free sandwiches and have other GF options.

Got excellent GF donuts here. They buy them from Peace of Mind, a designated GF bakery.

This is a health food store that carries absolutely everything you could ever want for Gf. HOWEVER! We grabbed 4 donuts from the GF case and I’m pretty sure my son was glutened. We had scrambled eggs from a hotel earlier but usually his reactions are in the 20 minute range putting their donuts as the culprit. I would still probably try them again as they *seem* so safe. Their menu looks amazing.

Decent gf selections as a grocer-- especially good if you can also go to the nearby Hannaford's, which has a gf section. We did not buy any in-house prepared foods, as a sign advised against it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent food, lots of gf options. I was asked if I needed my food to be prepared in a separate area.

There were several options for soup, muffins, smoothies. I didn't really look at the "food". The carrot maple ginger soup was good. I was looking for something warm in a rainy day.

Huge sign that says don't eat here if you have "severe celiac". I didn't risk it

Celiac friendly?

No

I was so happy find the local grocer while on vacation here. I am both gluten and dairy free and although they don't have dedicated kitchen space I was assured they use separate equipment and take necessary precautions and take allergies very seriously. Well...the kitchen staff doesn't take allergies as seriously as I was promised and my sandwich ended up coming with regular cheddar cheese on it in addition to the dairy free cashew cheese spread. I ate half the sandwich before I realized the mistake. So disappointing to spend my vacation sick. Also ridiculously priced!!

Celiac friendly?

No

Thought it was pricey and there is also a sign taped to a beam near the counter that states if you have a severe gluten allergy or celiac you might not want to eat there because they wont be responsible if you get sick from cross contamination.My son was getting married later that day so I decided I didnt want to take a chance

Amazing Turkey Pesto Sandwich. Bread was delicious and did not break apart! Pesto was outstanding. The gentleman asked to make sure it was an allergy over preference and noted very clearly! Will definitely come back when in the area.

Great bakery has GF muffins and scones and fresh smoothies! GF Groceries with a smile 😀 I jwish I lived closer!

I stopped in the grocer. The selection was excellent and the prices overall seemed pretty good. They have some fresh organic produce, lots of gluten free and organic dry and shelf goods. And there was a great selection of refrigerator and frozen gluten free, organic meats and vegan goods. Weather you need breakfast, lunch, a snack, dinner or food for the week, you can find it here! The staff was friendly, knowledgable, and helpful. I would stop back in a heartbeat if I needed anything.

Love the fact I could have a wrap (chicken curry), and it was delicious! Great selection of gf products & homemade desserts

This place is amazing! So accommodating to all of my food allergies, and I was able to get a gorgeous loaded Greek salad with all the fixings, and it was delicious! Definitely my favorite spot in North Conway!

Celiac friendly?

Amazing gluten free wraps, did not break at all, and the food was delicious. The staff was very knowledgable about celiacs and had wonderful recommendations. Will be coming back in the future.

Pricy but great GF products for when you are away......They also have locally made GF treats......

Celiac friendly?

This is a great little grocery store with many gluten free packaged items but I would not eat at the cafe if you have Celiac. We ordered my son gf toast with cream cheese and were assured that it would be cooked with separate utensils, etc., and yet he became quite ill after eating there. I imagine some of their staff aren't as knowledgeable as the cafe advertises itself to be.

Celiac friendly?

No

Great grilled cheese! My 10 yo GF dgtr loved it. Excellent choices of GF and DF grocery items. Must try! Also has non GF menu items.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

What a gem! The food was delicious and the staff was really nice. The food is good but the desserts are just alright. Amazing Steak Bomb Burrito! They had a separate pan for gluten free food which was nice. The bread has a good consistency and they sell it in the store. Try out the GF and vegan whoopie pies (in the freezer)!

They have a good GF selection at the cafe and store. My daughter got the grilled cheese on GF bread which was tasty. The iced coffee is good also.

Tried the chocolate eclair which was very good. They have a breakfast and lunch menu, and most items can be made GF according to the cashier. They have breakfast burritos, egg sandwiches, wraps, etc but I didn't try those. They also have a good GF selection in the store.
