Review of The Upper Bend

Cute coffee shop with extensive gluten-free options (as well as vegan choices) for breakfast and brunch. Our breakfast sandwiches were delicious as was the coffee and tea; they also have numerous sweet options. Staff seemed very knowledgeable about ingredients and were happy to discuss, and checked whether GF was due to allergy or preference. They do seem to designate items made using GF oats as gluten-free on the menu so if you are sensitive to oats you may want to confirm ingredients with staff. It's also very popular so fills up quickly on weekends around breakfast.
