Gluten free bread and bagel options. Conscientious handling of food, although they can't guarantee no contamination.

When my husband and I ordered sandwiches, he ordered a regular bun and I a gf. They arrived wrapped separately but in the same bag. I should have known then to not trust it. I’m fairly certain they mixed up our bread and I’ve now been sick all morning.

Love this place. They gave delicious gluten free bread which can be used to make most sandwiches there gluten free. They use a separate toaster and were knowledgeable about Celiac.

Loved eating here! They could make almost anything on their gluten free bread and seemed cautious about the cross contamination. You could also online order!

I had a Turkey sandwich, the chicken noodle soup with no noodle, and a blueberry muffin. They have separate prep spaces, and use a dedicated toaster for the bread. I didn’t get sick. Coffee was pretty good, too.

Gluten free blueberry muffins and sugar cookies for baked goods. Carry Udi's bread. Was able to eat the oatmeal and homefries. As many gluten free people also cannot tolerate dairy I think it's important to point out that all of the baked goods contain milk, as do the eggs for the sandwiches. When I asked if they could just scramble an egg for me without milk a girl walked up and gave a look of disgust insinuating that that was going to be super inconvenient, but the girl taking our order made sure that it wasn't a problem and for that we are extremely grateful. We had a great gluten free breakfast. (Also noting there are no GF pancakes). They carry almond milk for coffee- score! :)

This place was closed and I was looking in and the owner Tim invited me in and told me to ask any questions. I informed him I was GF and he told me what I could have which was a lot of different options. He then gave me a full box of gluten free treats on the house!! Totally awesome and will definitely be going back. Highly recommend

Owner came out and talked with me personally, explaining his wife and son can't eat gluten. He reassured me that he cooks on a separate grill top and uses a separate toaster. I had a delicious omelet, gf toast, yummy gf blueberry muffin, AND he gave me two gf chocolate chip cookies on the house. I highly recommend!! 😊

I went here with my family on vacation. I was going to order a bean burger on gluten-free bread, but the owner stopped me and asked if I had Celiac's. I do, so he informed me that that menu item contained wheat and apologized. I thanked him for saving me from near-wheat devastation, and he gave me a gluten-free oatmeal cookie on the house. Overall, this was a great experience.

I had a great sandwich on gluten free bread. They had a couple of gluten free options on bakery items. They had 1/2 off bakery items when I was there except for the gluten free items.

Just stopped in for a sweet treat. Based on the reviews, I expected a little more selection, they just had chocolate chip cookies and some raspberry muffins. Both were excellent though! Seems like a good place to grab a soup and sandwich. Breakfast menu looked good too!

Tim was really great! Came out and introduced himself to my son and me. He then proceeded to tell my teenage son he would make whatever he wanted on the menu gluten free (with the exception of some of the soups)! He even let my son sample parsnip and pear soup😳. It was a success! He liked it and doesn't usually eat soup other than clam chowder and chicken noodle soup. Everything was great! Thank you Tim for taking the time to come out and talk to Patrick! Great chocolate chip cookies too!

Never felt so assured in any other restaurant. Told the manager I was coeliac and he told me his wife and daughter were too. He said he'd make me scrambled eggs with home fries and some gf toast. I asked about a separate toaster. He told me to just relax he had it all under control. Which he did! And I got a gf cookie for the road! Great place!!
