They have three varieties of GF bagels- plain, sesame and cinnamon raisin. They are individually wrapped in plastic and put in a separate bin from the rest of the bagels. I was told by the cashier that they are prepared separately from the rest of the products and that they avoid cross-contamination. My son had the plain and cinnamon raisin bagels and did not have any allergic reactions, and he said they were good.

The BEST gluten free bagel I’ve had. It was a NY style bagel (boiled). It was so chewy and the flavor was 10/10! I got the everything bagel but they had plain, sesame, everything, cinnamon raisin, and a few other flavors that I haven’t been able to find! They were out of stock when I was there, but a sign indicated they sell iced gluten free sugar cookies

Iced coffee and bagels are 10/10. Taste and texture. They are toasted in the same place as the other bagels just an FYI for celiacs, but they were good about asking ahead of time if toasting this way was okay. Service was disorganized but bagels made up for it.

This is a random local chain that happens to make really good GF bagels. I buy a bunch, slice, wrap in plastic, and keep them in my freezer to have on hand whenever I crave a bagel. Really good. And I’m glad to support a local small business!

This place has gluten free bagels and bagel sandwiches that can be made with the gluten free bagels. They indicated to me that the gluten free bagels were boiled separately and baked in a common oven. They also don't have a separate toaster for the gluten free bagels, so there is cross contamination risk. I am celiac but lower sensitivity level than some and didn't have a reaction after eating a toasted bagel sandwich. The gluten free bagels themselves were individually wrapped in the basket, so it appears they would be safer un-toasted for those with high sensitivity. They also had gluten free muffins in the case. They told me those came from another baker and they didn't have any info on the preparation for them. I did try one of the muffins and it was just ok, and I didn't have any reaction to them either. One thing to note, the website indicated many more flavors of gluten free bagels than what was actually available. Not sure if they were out of the others or if they only make a couple flavors on any particular day If you are interested in a particular flavor of gluten free, I suggest calling ahead to make sure you don't waste a trip.
