First time visiting this bakery today and the dairy free sugar cookie blew me away! So soft and delicious without being overly sweet. My husband got the vanilla cupcake and he loved it as well. Will definitely be back to try other goodies!

I didn't know gluten free could taste this good! I've had gluten free treats at other places and something about the texture was never quite right to me (compared to non-gluten free baked goods). But this shop got it right. If I didn't know they were gluten free, I wouldn't have guessed. The texture of my pastries were all fluffy and moist & they taste delicious! I'm excited to share these with my gluten free friends!

It is rare for me to find gluten free restaurants in my area. I came here this week and was blown away at how many different options there were for delicious looking pastries. I decided to order the cinnamon roll and it was the best I've ever had! Better and softer than any regular cinnamon roll I've had. Best part is I didn't have to sacrifice feeling sick after eating it. I also ordered the spring veggie omelet with potato's and a GF English muffin. I believe it was about $17 for that dish which was very reasonable considering other places in the area charge extra to include anything gluten free. I sat outside under a heater and the woman behind the counter was very kind and accommodating. I can't wait to come back here to try their lunch items too!

What a great place where I know I won't get accidentally or on purposely get "glutened!" Met my friend for lunch yesterday and enjoyed my breakfast at lunchtime very much. The toast was delicious and buttery and the strawberry jam was perfect with it. That sounds like such a simple thing but it's rarely so perfect especially if one has celiac or gluten intolerance. My eggs were good and the bacon crisp and well drained. My friend enjoyed her summer salad too and stated that the balsamic dressing was especially good. Now we have a safe and delicious place to meet for lunch. Thank you for being there!

One of my new favorite spots! Very cute bakery with lots of dietary restriction friendly options. We came here on a Saturday morning and were able to get parking in the small lot in front. We were immediately greeted when we entered and saw so many delicious options! Everything from gluten free to dairy free to both. My absolute favorite is the chocolate cupcake. A very moist cake with creamy decadent frosting. All in all, very delicious and I can't wait to try more! As a side note, I appreciate that they don't let outside food in. This enables a very dietary friendly environment.

Best gluten free bakery in the Bay. Waaaay better than mariposa. The stuff here does not taste gluten free English muffin: awesome and very thoroughly buttered. Lemon blueberry scone: moist not dry! Lots of berries. Outside seating and inside. Nice atmosphere and friendly service. Chai latte: was a little too sweet Omelette: nice red onion and meat added options. A little more cheese would be good

After a few bad experiences and over a year away from my hometown, I tried this place again. The pancakes were amazing! In fact I was there last week and woke up this morning wanting to drive the hour to go get these pancakes again! The atmosphere (for me) was much better on the weekday (last time I came was on a weekend) and I was able to take home some GF treats too! May be stopping in again soon for pancakes!
