The best gluten free breakfast sandwich and scones I have had, and didn't seem to have any reaction to anything. I do have some concerns with safety, they had the GF baked goods within inches of the gluten-containing items, and even packaged up my items on top of the empty area from the sold gluten items.

Ordered a gluten free scone and a croissant that contained gluten. They put the croissant on top of the gluten free scone in the bag. I had already asked them to keep them separate. I then asked them to give me another scone that wasn't cross contaminated. They charged me for both even though the scone couldn't be eaten because of cross contamination!! By the way, the croissant was awful and went in the trash.

There is gluten free bread available for every breakfast sandwich and it is fresh, crisp, and tasty. I also tried some cupcakes and a scone- I’m not usually a cupcake person but the frosting was light and not too sweet, the cake was moist and fluffy, and each different flavor cupcake was wonderful.

When ordering a sandwich gluten free they ask if you have celiac and then presumably prepare it separately. My sandwiches were in a separate to go bag from the gluten sandwiches and had an extra wax paper covering. I had the north shore and whole hog on their herb and cheese bun, both were delicious.

Very good gluten free sandwich bread. Bad “Vietnamese coffee.” Bad iced white chocolate drink. Macarons were an abomination. (Which they forgot and I am glad and sad I checked the bag before driving away)I assumed white chocolate macarons would be white. These were an atrocious blue color! They tasted nothing like a macaron. Hard to bite through. The cost of the 2 drinks and macarons we threw out left us in sorrow.

Crave is by far my favorite breakfast spot. I’ve been coming here for over three years and never had an issue. Almost everything is gluten-free except the croissants. Owner’s mother has celiac disease so they get it and take cross-contact seriously. Dedicated kitchen space. Cupcakes are outstanding and the North Shore breakfast sandwich is phenomenal on their homemade GF bread!

Love this place. I have severe celiac. So cross contamination is an issue, and the ingredient lists I always have to check for any hidden gluten. I have NOT have a reaction here at all! Amen here at least a dozen times now. You MUST try the Crave sandwich, with their house made GF garlic heard croissant/flatbread. It’s amazing.

They also have a whole case of deserts. Separate from the non-GF items. Cookies, scones, cupcakes, ect. All amazing.

Just had one of the most amazing GF breakfast sandwiches ever! It was made with a homemade herb-cheese bread. The staff’s first question was if was an allergy or a preference. They have a separate prep area. They were super nice and very knowledgeable. I also took a blueberry-lemon scone to go, and that was moist and delicious.

Hello Amber, we are very sorry to hear this we have a very good reputation for not getting anyone sick. We wanted to hear a little bit more about your experience and what exactly got you sick? We also don't make our macarons in house, they are made for us in new york city, not sure if something happened on their end. Would you consider giving our cupcakes another try? On the house as a test? I really appreciate this review and the feedback, without it we can never improve. My name is Ron I'm one of the owners here at Crave, it would mean allot if you could please reach out to me directly at [email protected] so we can schedule a day for you to come by and pick up some stuff to test out.

Not only is the staff so unbelievably knowledgeable and accommodating, but most of the menu is already GF and they are insanely safe about cross contamination. I am crazy sensitive and get sick so easily, and I drive a half hour at least once a week to get a breakfast sandwich and to stock up on scones and macaroons.
