Oh. My. Word! Amazing food! Great atmosphere. We had the patty melt, rotisserie chicken sandwich, and a rotisserie chicken. Fantastic chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Will definitely return.

I’ve had the french toast here and the grilled cheese with tomato soup. It’s the closest to normal and safest I’ve felt eating in a while!

I really love this menu. I had the half rotisserie chicken and Brussels sprouts. I can’t eat egg either and they had a really good cookie that I could eat. It’s hard to find gluten-free baked goods without egg. It’s really clean too.

Wow, what a find. High-end restaurant feel inside. Significant sections (more lunch and breakfast ) and 100% safe. Also, the best teas. WARNING. They have a lot of baked goods that you have to walk by to order... So... Yelp bags to take home. :-)

Best gluten free bakery in Texas. Maybe the US. Please do yourself the favor and try it out.

Pros: ambiance, local, taste of food items, their delivery options on their website, their fresh juice assortment from their partnership business Sustain down the street, and they are extremely friendly.

Cons: missed real cow milk and sugar in my coffee, but that's on my end something I want to change- .

I've been on a gluten free diet since 2013. I initially did it as an elimination diet and realized I felt great without gluten. I've lived and traveled to different countries and states in the US. I've gone to A LOT of gluten free bakeries in every location I've visited. At the store I buy Udi's gluten free bread which is good for everyday sandwiches, but nothing beats fresh bread. I've been dreaming of a Houston gluten free bakery like this one for years. I eat organically and cook a lot at home, but my bread selections are limited to supermarket buys. My daughter is a celiac so I was so excited when Leven opened.

Their pumpernickel and pain de mie loaves are extremely tasty. I love their oatmeal raisin cookies and cowboy cookies.

I tried their coffee and they had milk alternatives that five years ago I would have been into but these days I enjoy the real thing. It's a great shop and I'll continue to occasionally drink their coffee but I did miss my milk.

Great new dedicated gluten free cafe with Wi-Fi. Worth the drive if coming from outside the inner loop. This place has baked goods to take home and a nice sit down cafe/coffee shop ambiance to have a casual meet up with friends. Highly recommend this place.

Cappuccino and rotisserie sandwich ordered…

This place is delicious and the staff is very accommodating and helpful! They are a 100% gluten free bakery and cafe that used to sell their breads at local farmers markets and has recently opened a cafe. I brought along three friends who are not gluten free and they all loved the food as much as I did!

Dedicated GF bakery and cafe with delicious coffee! Dairy free options as well. The avocado toast was delicious! They sell various fresh breads but the sourdough and multigrain are my favorite. Amazing coffee cake and lemon bread too. Soon there will be more cafe options and I’m so excited to try them! Stop by for cookies and coffee and take home a loaf of bread!
