Service was friendly and fast, my food was delicious, and everyone enjoyed their lattes. My vegan and gluten-free friends had good options. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Frederick!

This morning we walked to Gravel & Grind from our AirBNB. It was the GF waffles that led us there; my spouse hadn't had one in decades and we were hopeful based on other's reviews. We got there to find a line out the door (always a good sign) that moved pretty fast. We ordered a GF waffle with everything (fruit compote, butter, syrup) and a fully gluten waffle of the same. For drinks we got a Peruvian pour-over and a Chai Latte with almond milk. We agreed both of our waffles were EXCELLENT: crispy on the outside, fluffy and delicious on the inside. I don't know how they get the syrup on these without them turning to mush, but they did it! This was the best waffle I've ever had. It was, dare I say it, PERFECT. In fact, I at almost every bite before I knew it (very unusual for The Queen of "May I Have a Box!" My spouse said the pour-over was VERY good - this is high praise from my self-proclaimed Coffee Snob. I liked how the Chai Latte had a bit of a bite to it, likely from the clove infused in it. We sat on the back patio at one of the many umbrella-ed, four-seater tables under a canopy. We were the only ones there. By the time we left, it was almost full of visitors. I got to play with a 10-month-old at the next table (delightful) and to pet an adorable Tibetan Terrier dog on my way out. Yes, I recommend this place. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly and quick. I wouldn't be surprised if we end up back there again!

We were greeted by 2 very friendly young ladies. They were very personable and went out of their way to verify ingredients for someone who has celiac disease! My avocado toast was delicious! In addition , my sister who is gluten free said her egg sandwich was amazing!

An excellent and unique Italian cafe right in the heart of downtown Frederick. Delizia offers a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere at all times throughout the day. In the morning, Delizia offers a full service coffee bar and possibly the best croissants in Frederick. They also offer a hot breakfast menu serving American style breakfasts with unique Italian flare. In the afternoon and evening, Delizia offers happy hour cocktails, a good selection of Italian wine and beers. I recommend the Venetian Spritz. The dinner menu features homemade lasagna, pasta, and gluten free snack sized pizzas. There are several event evenings, including an open mic / comedy night and a Salsa dance night. I highly recommend Delizia to everyone exploring downtown Frederick. I expect to become a regular customer!

Adorable cafe in downtown Frederick that made you feel like you were in a French cafe. The strawberry pistachio latte was delicious and just enough sweetness. I was so pleased to find yummy gluten free waffles on the menu. Thanks for the great treat!
