Had the buckwheat pancakes and a salad with carrot cake and a smoothie, all very tasty, carrot cake was a bit crumbly but can't really complain. Menu annotated with GF and staff knowledgeable.

Good experience- had a smoothie and GF avocado toast. Most things seem to be GF or can be made GF. GF pastries also available

Asked if the granola was Gluten free, said yes. Ate some, but stopped because I was hesitant. Had my smoothie instead. Definitely have an upset stomach now.

Celiac and I eat here regularly - no issues. The staff is very knowledgeable and will steer me in a different direction if they can't guarantee something's safety. Most things either are, or can be made, gluten free. They also have a pretty large selection of baked goods as well, which is nice.

Looked friendly, acted friendly, and I told them I was celiac 3 times. Got super sick, took 48 to semi recover, and a couple weeks to fully recover. Wrecked our vacation day. Not sure what it was, other than possibly NOT GF bread.
