Review


1. No, not everything in the building is gluten free. The owner has a table with things from other vendors. As this establishment is advertised as 100% gluten-free, I thought nothing of buying one of these local treats... and ate a wheat-flour donut. I realized after a few bites, but was still massively sick.

2. Regardless of this incident, the food is dreadful. Bland and tasteless. We had ordered a few different items, but neither my husband nor myself could choke them down. We ended up ordering food from somewhere else and throwing the meals in the garbage.

Edited to Respond: You're a liar. Flat out. I was sick for DAYS and had to miss work. Don't advertise as dedicated gluten-free when you have an ENTIRE TABLE of unmarked food

Owner Response


Our kitchen has been 100% gluten free since 2019, so the donut you're referring to was from about 3 years ago

We haven't had local products in the store since may 2021, and they were also all 100% gluten free

I apologize you weren't happy with the food you purchased from me and would be happy to provide you with a refund, feel free to contact me directly and I can rectify the situation

Update: lol I’m not lying. There haven’t been non gluten free donuts in my building since 2019. So once again you’re wrong. You ate a donut off of a table clearly labeled with a different businesses logo. I remember the day it happened. I was there. You bought items from me and the other business with out asking questions or even once mentioning you were celiac. You ate the donut on the way out the door and then came back in and asked if it was gluten free and that was the first time you mentioned being celiac. I don’t really care that you don’t like my food. But you’re wrong about how any of this went down. It was 4 years ago not sure why you’re still so hung up on this lol
