The sourdough bread was the best gluten free bread I had. The Boston creme pie was also really good.

Very safely GF for celiac. Safe protocols for Covid. Expensive but most treats were good.

Maybe I’ve been spoiled by Mariposa Baking in CA, but this place was just gross. Items are sad and crumbly, dough was way oversalted and had an unpleasant flavor, neither me or my husband finished our pizza. My son liked the frosting on the cupcake, but left the most of the cake part.
Truly gluten free, I didn’t get sick, so I guess that’s something.
Super disappointing- much better to just get a frozen baked food at Whole Foods or something like that.

Fully gluten free (but oats in basically everything which is super annoying for those of us celiacs who can’t do oats...) but generally poor service and quality of food leaves MUCH to be desired. The only reason it gets so much business is because it’s the only gf bakery nearby. On the plus side, I don’t crave baked goods anymore because I’ve had so many disappointing ones from here that I’m completely put off...

This bakery is very conveniently located. I just wish the products were better. I've tried numerous products here and they are either too sweet or too dry or both. Nine times out of ten I'm disappointed, so I go episodically, when I'm desperate.

It’s nice seeing a dedicated gf bakery, however the food was very average and super dry. Also is incredibly expensive. We bought 4 things and it came out to be $37.

Completely gluten free here! They even have take and bake items in their grab and go freezer.
Great for gluten free and vegan customers. For those w/ more obscure allergies such as chocolate or seeds should be extra cautious and ask about your options. Also a little bit pricey (even amongst gluten free things) and pushy for tips (I went on multiple visits and friends went on multiple separate visits and found this the case as well).

100% celiac safe. Great options for dairy free and vegan as well. Would recommend the cupcakes, sourdough loaf, rosemary pita crackers, macarons and donuts!
I like the frozen foods as well like the chicken pot pies, but they can be a bit pricey for the amount of food so I don’t get those too often.
Yes
Overall good but not necessarily worth the price.
Great! Expensive: It cost $26 for a small frozen pizza and 2 cupcakes. But I really loved everything I had. The pizza crust was flavorful with excellent texture; the closest to regular pizza crust I think I’ve tried so far. There was jjst enough cheese and the sauce with fresh grape tomatoes was wonderful. I tried the vanilla and caramel cupcake, which was just okay, and a dairy free cardamom and rose, which was AMAZING. I am looking forward to going back.
Yes
First time I've been able to eat a florentine in 12 years. I literally can't put a price on that. Even ricotta pie! I mean, come on! Eventually I'll try the ice cream sandwiches.
Yes
Dedicated gluten free facility and the chocolate cake with lavender blueberry icing was delicious!
Yes
Was thrilled to find this place - a dedicated GF bakery!! It’s my go-to spot for GF challah, which is out of this world, probably the best I’ve had, and I’ve tried quite a few! I love that every time I go in, they have something fun and new, usually seasonal (the pumpkin muffins were delish!).
Yes
Loved this place! Had a fantastic blueberry scone and spent 10 minutes just looking at all the pastries. It’s worth the train ride out of the city
Yes
Celiac safe! Entirely gluten free bakery. Definitely recommend the brie gluten free pastry and the cobbler! Lemon bars were very crumbly but good. Didn't try any of the cookies, but they looked good.
Yes
Violette has some of the best gluten free baked goods I've had anywhere. Violette actually has some of the best baked goods I've had back when I ate gluten. My gluten-eating husband would choose the chocolate chip cookies over most others. They're great, but my personal obsession is the brioche. Also the peanut butter cookies with chocolate. Also the apple fritters. And the bagels. And the sourdough or oat breads. Seriously, just go to Violette.
Yes
Challah is outstanding. Cupcakes are great.
Had a variety of cupcakes and cookies from here. First of all - no cross contamination and I feel confident to eat from there again. But also the quality is fantastic, their cream to cake ratios are spot on, and the choice is brilliant for every taste.
Yes
Gluten free facility and tasty food.
Yes
100% gluten free bakery and most options are dairy free too! I’ve been going weekly for the past few months. The best I’ve found in Boston!
Yes
Cupcakes and cake were delicious. Dedicated gluten free bakery.
Yes
A 100% gluten-free bakery located conveniently in Porter Square - I love it! Cupcakes are always interesting flavors, and the cookies are great too!
Yes
Not the best gf bakery I've ever been to, but definitely the best option in Boston/Cambridge. I went early on a Saturday afternoon and it was busy! It's a small space (no seating) and they seem to run out of food quickly, so I would recommend ordering ahead on their website. Personally, I think their pastries are better than their savory food.
Yes
I’ve tried the majority of their baked goods, and some of them are FANTASTIC! Highly recommend the cakeron, flourless chocolate cake, the lemon squares, angel food cake, the APPLE FRITTER (!!!!), and bars (billionaire bars, turtle bars). The cupcakes are also good, but the frosting isn’t my favorite. Celiac safe and a tasty (if a bit pricey) treat!
Yes
Entire place is gluten free. Most is dairy free. Some is vegan. Cookies are very good. Soups are delicious. They have bread, which I have never tried.
Yes
The berry scone was delicious, very soft, moist, and cakey. The mixed berry bar was also great as was the peach cupcake. Vanilla/yellow cake is usually not good gf but they nailed it! Wasn’t the biggest fan of the lemon berry shaker pie but it was still alright. Prices are as expected. Wanted to try an empanada but I had a 6 hour drive so sadly couldn’t.
Yes
Nice to have a dedicated GF place in the area, no doubt. No chances of getting sick here which is huge. However, I'm not really a fan of their baked goods, and they're overpriced. The only thing I've liked is the empanadas. However, other Celiac family members love it. So it's certainly worth a try!
Yes
My favorite gf bakery in the area for sure! They serve savory items which is not always common in gf bakeries! Their brioche is amazing and cupcakes are delicious! They have several vegan items as well! Some of their items contain oats so, if you are sensitive to them- check with the staff and they will inform you! Always friendly and great service!
Yes
This bakery is absolutely amazing. DEDICATED GLUTEN FREE FACILITY! (Yay!!!!) Hands down the best GF baked goods I've ever had - by FAR my favorite GF place. Everything is so delicious and I've never gotten sick from eating anything here. They make the best GF bread I've ever had, quiches, ham and cheese pastries, several different pies, cakes, cookies, pastries, etc. It's just like a normal bakery (everything is yummy) but it's a completely dedicated facility. I cannot say enough good things about this place. So good that I'm almost positive that the one review here that isn't five stars has to be a mistake. I have very high GF standards, and I've never gotten anything here I didn't love.
The owner is very sweet and explained she started the bakery because she was tired of mediocre GF foods when it's completely possible to make delicious stuff. My non-GF relatives raved about how good everything was. I have a hard time sharing whenever I get anything from here.
If you're trying to decide between going here and literally anywhere else for breakfast, lunch, or anything in between, come here. You definitely won't regret it.
Yes
Everything is safe. But for the price I would expect better tasting food and service. The owner can be pretty off putting. You’re better off with a homemade gluten free cake from a box.
Yes
I was so excited to see a dedicated GF bakery near me, but I found the customer service and baked goods to only be so-so. If you're desperate for a baked good, it's been safe to eat here for me.
Yes
Quiche, crumble top pie, and banana bread were all wonderful breakfast treats for me and my non-GF family when I visited from out of town. Check out the online menu and order ahead by email. Bagels and bread aren't ready until 10:30A.
Yes
Scrumptious and absolutely gluten free!
Yes
I wanted to support a dedicated GF shop, but I honestly didn’t like any of the 5 things I got. It wasn’t spit-it-out bad, but it wasn’t take-another-bite good, if that makes sense. $24 down the drain :((
Yes
So many choices that are dairy free! The ice cream sandwiches were to die for. Pizza was very good and we bought lots of sweets and so far they’re all very good. Highly recommend!
We went back a second time on our trip for more pizza, a calzone and a bag full of cookies and other goodies. Everything we ate tasted amazing! You won’t be disappointed.
Yes
This is a really cute spot, and the best part is that it's a dedicated gluten free facility. EVERYTHING is glut free!! The quiche was delicious and the blueberry cobbler was amazing. So glad I found this place on my commute back home.
Yes
Lots of choices, great bakery feel. Brioche was delicious! The cupcakes I had were beautiful, but did not taste as good as they looked.
great service and a really wonderful place for a treat!
Yes
The food I got here was delicious, I'd love for them to expand to more options!
Yes
This is a dedicated gluten free facility with dairy free options as well. They have everything from pies (whole or by the slice), quiche (whole or by the slice), cakes, cupcakes, cookies, scones, you name it! I informed them of my honey allergy, and the ladies behind the counter quickly listed off three items that they use honey in, and assured me that everything else was safe. I indulged in their apple cobbler and a pumpkin cupcake and took them outside to enjoy in the beautiful autumn weather. While nothing will ever beat my grandmother's apple pie with its gluten-y crust, this cobbler was a wonderful combination of sweet and tart, and the crust held together well. The pumpkin cupcake was light and fluffy and perfectly sweet. I pass this bakery on my commute, and can see many, many more visits in the future!
Yes
Delicious quiche, French macaroons and peanut butter cookies!!! Can't wait to come back and try the chicken pot pie when it becomes available!! No worries of any cross contamination here! I'll be back!
A bit pricey but the dedicated gluten free facility definitely puts me at ease and willing to spend a little bit more!
Yes
Excellent customer service! The cookies, especially the oatmeal are wonderful. Can't go wrong with the peanut butter cookies or the blueberry lemon zest bread either!!
Yes
Great choices for gluten free baked goods

Such a nice woman serving delicious gluten free sweets and treats! Highly recommended.
