Pictured is their gluten free bread egg and salmon sandwich that waa good. I loved this bakery. It gets very busy during the peak times but the lines seemed to move quickly. Because of how busy they are during peak times, seating can be a bit limited.

This place is incredible. As a gluten-free girl, traveling with her dairy-free friend, food can be a challenge. This place had plenty of options to meet both of our dietary restrictions. I had this zucchini/corn fritter bowl. It was incredible. They also offer specialty coffees, salads, acai, all fresh and beautiful. This is a perfect summer spot for a cool meal. The prices were also strikingly reasonable, especially for Boston. The vibe is also brilliant. The colors are vibrant, and the energy is high. I loved every aspect of Life Alive!

Seating is limited. Some of the BEST gluten free pizza crust I've had! Can't say what it tastes like the day after though which could change my opinion since most gluten free pizza crusts aren't excellent the day after. I had a side salad which was good. Nothing fancy, typical. I can't remember what pizza options I got but I really liked what is pictured on the right side best but both were delicious. Dirty Water Dough Comment come to the Midwest!

Nice cafe with a bunch of gluten-free snack options that have come in handy for me. Coffee and tea drinks are all good, but not standout. Can be hard to find a place to sit as it is always pretty crowded. However, we've always been able to get a place to sit without too much of a wait when we decide to stay. I had the gluten-free chocolate tart, which was rich, chocolaty, and not too sweet. The London fog was acceptable but seemed a bit underbrewed as the earl grey didn't come through strong enough for my taste

This place is a 10/10! The whole aesthetic is exceptional- from the decor, to the service, the drinks, and the food. My husband has celiac and was able to eat so many items. Our server, Daniel, is honestly one of the best waiters we’ve ever had. He was knowledgeable, had wonderful recommendations (even wrote us a list of cool things to do in Boston)- he deserves to be recognized. The food was chef’s kiss! We had the beef carpaccio, gluten free wild boar pasta, gluten free spicy lobster penne, and the crema di Boston- everything was outstanding If you are able to make a reservation here- do it. It’s a rooftop restaurant and the views were great even though it was overcast. I can’t imagine how beautiful it would be on a clear summer day.

Abe and Louise’s is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. The bar area is elegant and never disappoints. The staff is super friendly and professional. The food is top quality. I recently when in for lunch and they were very accommodating to my gluten allergy. Definitely one of the best in Boston.

We found our way here because of its gluten free recommendations. And I'm told they did not disappoint. In fact, we went here on back to back days because of its selections and overall freshness of the food. The inside is very aesthetically pleasing + love the exposed white brick walls and the displays of sweets is pretty stunning. We enjoyed sandwiches, desserts, cappuccinos-- everything was delicious. Wishing we had one here in Toronto to be honest! Such a great spot.
