Taffets Bakery & Store

Both my sister and I are Celiacs and we both had a mild reaction after eating their bread. There might be a small amount of Gluten in the kitchen. We had to throw away all the bread and the toaster!

Visited this morning since I was in the area; I generally haven’t loved the products in the past and unfortunately today was similar. The bread is not very flavorful and falls apart very easily. Moreover, the space itself is quite dirty. I don’t have a lot of confidence in the food safety side of things. Shelve items too were covered in a thick layer of dust. I won’t be going back unless I hear things have changed.

Don’t waste your time Waited for store to open at 10 AM. It looked dirty but I went in anyway . Only had 2 types of fresh bagels And by fresh, I mean not frozen, but clearly not made today. Small freezer with a few items. I was told that I should order a few days in advance. I will not ever order from this place.

I am REALLY hoping I’m going to be able to add a star to this rating bc I’m really excited to have this in South Philly. I walked in last weekend and was disappointed from the selection. There was nothing fresh out for grabs, everything was in their mini fridge. I bought everything bagels (VERY expensive) which were terrible. I ate 1.5 of them and threw out the rest, BUT I also bought a baguette and soft pretzels. The baguette I threw in the freezer and just defrosted today to make crostini and dunk in olive oil...omg...I missed baguettes so freakin much, it was amazing! The soft pretzels are still in the freezer. I plan to go back & try some more things 🤞🏻

Updated - came back a few months later & the entire inside reeked of pot which ya know is an issue if they happened to be inspected. Will not be returning.

They were sold out of most of their sweets by the time I got there (afternoon), so I bought a frozen loaf of sourdough and a pretzel. The pretzel was dry -- might be better heated and buttered. But I took the sourdough home and toasted it -- OUT OF THIS WORLD. Highly recommend. Doesn't taste at all GF :)

Brought the soft pretzels that tasted like a horrible stale bread with salt on it. I threw it out. Absolutely disgusting! I also brought a red velet cupcake. The cupcakes does not have the traditional cream cheese icing, it's more like a cool whip icing. The cupcake it's self was very dry. I threw that out as well. Such a disappointment as I drove from Bensalem, PA to try this bakery. I will not return.

Simply the best gf bakery- ever. Ever. Ever. I can’t stress this enough.

Super grumpy guy at counter both times we’ve been here (I don’t think he could be the owner) BUT their baguette is awesome and worth the stop!!! Everything bagel has super buttery flavor too.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Totally gluten free! Celiac safe. Small bakery shop with two bar tables for seating. Soft pretzel delicious and brownie had so much chocolately goodness.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Can’t give this place enough stars! I’ve been going for five years and it’s just a gem to have found. Their baguettes and brownies are my favorite things. Don’t sleep on the bagels, they’re great too. They have SOFT PRETZELS! Where else are you going to find those?! Sometimes in the summer they even have freshly squeezed lemonade. Amazing!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This bread is some of the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommend stopping in!!

Very nice. Very helpful. Celiac friendly and 100% gluten free.

Not very many options and even fewer fresh things to choose from. It was pretty out of the way and in sort of a market neighborhood. The area is a little beat up but I didn’t feel unsafe. They mostly only had bread and a couple of frozen or cooled sweets. To be fair, the soft pretzel I had was very good. Wish they had more.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ok, Taffet’s aint cheap... but you can’t help falling in love with their baked goods. The facility is 100% gluten free, made by the owner who is often right there in the store. And such a great guy!

He makes amazing cookies, breads, biscotti, cupcakes, doughnuts, bagels, rolls, the list is as long as your arm and always something new.

Get there early, they do sell out fast.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing breads! Absolutely worth the drive. On the weekends call ahead to make sure they have what you want.

Celiac friendly?

Nice staff. Great selection: bread, cookies, cupcakes. Very tasty.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

While they do offer safe foods for those with gluten intolerances, I was rather disappointed with the options... When I went, they only had some cookies and bread along with other gf shelf items you can get at your local market. Didn't look good either so I didn't get anything.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place has made me so happy it hurts. Actual, real, fresh bread!!!!! I got the baguette (for only $4?!?!?!) and got some cheese from the shops nearby and I am currently living the frickin’ dream. THIS IS EMOTIONAL.

Unbelievable sub rolls. We had a cheesesteak at Sonny’s with your rolls and I’m telling you it was the best thing I’ve ever had Gluten free. My daughter has celiac. There were no issues. We loved them!!! Do you ship to MA?

The staff was very friendly and helpful in making my selections. Dedicated gluten free bakery. The most delicious “real” bread I’ve had that’s gluten free. The Teff multigrain loaf, sourdough boule, French baguette and soft pretzels were amazing and freeze well!!! It’s worth the drive and they also ship. I’ll definitely be a back for more.

So yummy! Soft pretzel was awesome! And the baguette tasted like a slice of French bread that I haven't had in years! Friendly staff as well.

Stromboli is available but must be ordered in advance!

They ran out of soft pretzels by the time I'd arrived, but they sold me a pack of frozen ones that I was able to toast on our vacation. They. Were. Amazing. My husband who is from Philly agreed that they were legit. Additionally, we wound up at Paesano's near Fishtown for GF cheesesteaks with bread provided by Taffet's. Beyond legit. Note - this location is Celiac friendly. Not sure about Paesano's.

Unfortunately, the shop was still closed almost a hour after it was supposed to open. There was a baker that came out and said his manager should be arriving to open to the public, but after walking around and returning in about 1/2 an hour the manager/owner was still not there (maybe too much 4th of July partying the night before). We left empty handed. We were in the area so it wasn't as bad as if we made the trip just for this bakery, but it was quite disappointing since many GF places were closed for the holiday. Moral of the story, I find especially true in Philly, always call and confirm the establishment is open.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is amazing. The owner's mother has celiac. There isn't a spec of gluten in the bakery! The breads are fresh, light, airy and delicious. I cannot overstate the pleasure of going there just after opening time, picking up sourdough or a baguette, warm from the oven, walking home and eating it with Irish butter and French raspberry jam! Heavenly!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Absolutely, by far the best GF bakery on the planet ! Recently started making stromboli, foccacia and they even have Philly style pretzels ! Always carry a freezer bag with me so I can load up. Totally celiac friendly !

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great GF offerings! Especially like the GF baguettes. Try to stop in when I am in Philly.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Didn't love their breads. I was so excited to make sandwiches for lunch but the bread was really dense. Although a lot of people said its good, maybe I just got a bad batch. I'll try again in the Spring.

The absolute best. Their products are not dense like most GF breads. Definitely try the quinoa loaf, baguettes, bagels, and desserts

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great bakery. very friendly owners. dedicated gluten free. mostly nut free as well. very much worth the visit. recommend the Kaiser rolls and the pretzel with mustard. will visit again

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Entirely GF menu - will ship, too! Their quinoa bread is amazing!

Best chocolate chip cookies! Excited to find soft pretzels there as well!

Delicious baked goods!

Ok Taffets .. You out did your self... The pizza crust and baguettes were always my Fav... But these brownies!!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

You need this in your life. Esp the cookies.....

Best bagels... I wish I lived closer and could go there more often. The bread is good too. It is like real bread in size and texture. They have so many choices. Some are fresh others frozen. There are even dried sundries such as pastas. Again loved my everything bagel!

Delicious!! Got a bit of everything and loved it all

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is a DREAM COME TRUE. I've been coming here since they first opened a couple of years ago. This bread is freshly baked and it does not taste like the gf bread you will be used to - it's so good that it rivals the gluteny bread I used to get when I lived in France. The owners are so nice and pleasant. The quinoa bread is my favorite, but the kaiser rolls and baguettes are delicious too. Omer needs to make the donut holes on a regular basis, though, instead of just on special occasions - I think those things were so good that they made my year. You forget you are gluten free when eating stuff from this bakery...

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love this place. If you call ahead, you can order fresh wraps. Overall, my favorite item here is the rolls. Can't beat a good roll!

I love this place!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing challah bread! Bagels are fantastic! Wonderful and informed staff - I can't say enough positive things about this place!

Great bread, bagels, biscotti, and baguette. My Celiac son loved being able to eat anything in the place.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Pros: So good! Lemon poppyseed biscotti - to die for.

Love the Teff bread and baguettes, too! Yum, yum!

Cons: Parking is impossible. Right smack in the heart of the Philly Italian market. Be prepared to walk. Really wish they had another location in the 'burbs with easy parking.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The best baguettes and biscotti I've ever had - one would NEVER guess they were gluten free!
