Great place if you are Gluten Free!
They are very aware of cross contamination & Celiac disease. Our waiter took the time to go over the menu with me & give me details to ease my mind.
We have been here 3 times now and it is amazing! They will check for gluten free items for you! There is a lot to choose from for gluten free! Amazing corn tortillas!!
I ordered Sugar Mama Cupcakes and Sugar Cookies - both gluten free - for my baby shower, and they were PHENOMENAL. The cupcakes were moist and delicious, and the cookies are the best sugar cookies I have ever had with the cutest designs. Massive thank you to Sugar Mama!
Absolutely delicious! Their gluten free/vegan options are out of this world!! Their stawberry basil lemonade aid is full of flavor! Highly recommend you stop into this beautiful coffee shop! EXTREMELY reasonable prices and EXCELLENT taste!!!!!
We have been twice, each time it was amazing. You can't go wrong with anything you get, and customer service was beyond expectations. They also tailored to our gluten free food allergy.

Thank you SOOOO much for having safe and delicious gluten free options!! I have celiac disease and it’s so hard to find a safe meal while traveling, so I was soooo happy to find this place on my road trip. Not only was the food delicious, but I did not get sick. They went above and beyond to cater to my unique needs and did it all with a smile and great service. If I was local, I’d eat here weekly. Thanks again 💜

The pizza here is really good. Ingredients taste fresh. Their Italian sausage is flavorful with just a tiny kick. Sauce is a good balance, not too sweet yet not bland at all.
Gluten free crust option is so good that you will not even notice that it's gluten free. Hands down, best gluten free crust in town.
Caitlyn is an amazing
Waitress. We were a little nervous being away from home and dining out for the first time after my son was diagnosed with celiac disease. Caitlyn explained to us what gluten-free options were available and how cross contamination would be avoided. My son enjoyed his meal,
and we all enjoyed a
Wonderful meal out. Thank you so much
ABSOLUTELY OUT OF THIS WORLD!
I get their butchers choice skillet with gluten free toast. Their GF toast is INCREDIBLE as well! I recommend everyone to stop in and get a glass of orange juice as well!
They do not have deep dish gluten free. They looked surprised that we came in to eat. They didn't have menus. There was more seating for slots than pizza. We didn't stay, so I cannot rate their food.
Delicious pizza that is light and fluffy while not being bread and gluten heavy. High quality ingredients and fantastic flavors make this pizza the best I've ever had! Make sure to try the authentic Italian coffee as well, it's outstanding!
Love this place! I have celiac disease and order a bowl. All of the choices to put in your bowl are clearly marked for allergies. So many gluten free choices. You can’t beat the flavors here either!
I would describe the food as artisan yet unpretentious. I had the seared tuna special and was quite impressed.
They have a great gluten free menu.
Atmosphere is cozy and romantic.
Service was friendly and attentive.
Epiphany farms is quite possibly the best restaurant I've ever been to. The food is outstanding and I love how they note on the menu the dietary specifics like gluten free. I've got Celiac and I love that I don't have to ask. They also have several gluten free options which is so awesome. The customer service is also the best I've ever experienced... From the wait staff to the management... There's not a piece that's out of place. Chef Ryan is a phenomenal cook and Chef Ken is so personable. Feels like family! Epiphany is literally the best!
They prepare everything themselves, so when my friend asked about gluten-free options, they said they could cook something gluten-free just for her. Delicious and thoughtfully made.
It might not be considered a "destination", but it's certainly a local institution. And it's easy to see why. The donuts and pastries are fresh, the dining area is clean and the staff is friendly.
Hands down, they make the best old fashioned style donuts. The danish are flaky and tasty. Coffee is pretty good.
They do have gluten free options, but they aren't always available
Be careful of their boxes if you are ordering multiple donuts as the cardboard is a bit flimsy.

Friendly and relatable staff. Any place that offers fresh baked goods from savory to sweet for you and your furry friends is worth checking out.
The baked goods: You’ll want to try it all if you can, and the prices are great. There’re gluten free options that vary weekdays, different specials of bread, muffins, cookies and more.
They’ve got coffee, too! Multiple flavors, reasonably priced and gives you a reason to poke around and see the jams, batters, doughs and apparel.
All and all a fun spot to check out. It feels homely to go into. Not a sitting place but absolutely a welcoming one. Be sure to grab a punch card to earn a free loaf of bread!
In the summer of 2016, I visited this store to buy 18 organic avocados for my mother's now permanently-closed vegan, organic, gluten-free, allergen-free restaraunt, Take A Bite. Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I only grabbed four or five actually organic avocados and the rest were regular avocados. Yeah, because I took off all the stickers that made the difference glaringly obvious to "help" stock them in the kitchen later. On my way out of the store a twenty-something South Asian man propositioned me inappropriately in the parking lot. He was still kind of lingering around when I hastily drove off, so who knows? Maybe that guy still does that. But anyway, it wasn't Schnucks or their avocados' fault my mother's restaurant went out of business. She's just really bad with money.
Co-ops often confuse people, so they compare it to a chain grocery like HyVee or Walmart. This store is currently carrying products from 74 LOCAL farmers (defined as within 100 miles of the store) which means their produce is fresher AND has more nutrients because it hasn't sat on a truck for weeks.
Back when the store opened, prices were admittedly high (which many old reviews have noted) but the last 6 months or so have seen serious price drops AND more sales, plus additional sales for owners. (BTW, if you're not familiar with co-ops, anyone can become an owner by putting in some equity. It's open to everyone to shop, but owners get extra perks).
Shopping in this store is an EXPERIENCE, and one unlike any chain grocery. The staff are delightful and eager to answer questions and help. They know all the regular shoppers, and share recommendations, etc. On any given day you'll run into friends in the aisles, see a kids' cooking class happening in the teaching kitchen, go sit on the patio and enjoy a sandwich, discover a new gluten-free product, try samples of some in-season local veg... you just never know. Grocery shopping is now something my husband and I gladly do several times a week, vs. the old 'ugh, can YOU do it this time??' before there was a Green Top in our community.
Something new people may want to know: TUESDAYS are Taco Tuesdays so anything you can fit in a hardshell taco is $1. Lots of local ingredients to choose form. THURSDAYS has salsa verde with either chicken or jackfruit (amazing. seriously) and FRIDAY is Penne for Pennies, where you can fill a plate with pasta and housemade sauce with local sausage for just $4. Or do half pasta/half salad for $4. That's a pretty great price for lunch or dinner, with fresh/local/organic ingredients.
And if all that isn't enough, consider: after 18 months being opened, this store has contributed almost $19,000 back to local human services organizations, has allowed many local small farms to increase their production, hire more staff, pay better wages, and more. THAT'S what a co-op does... versus feed stockholders and CEOs halfway across the country. This store isn't too expensive, the Walmarts of the world have skewed our perception of what REAL food REALLY costs. And the results are bankrupt family farms, broken food infrastructure, a shrinking middle class, and a thriving 1%. This co-op is a piece of the solution, but we as consumers have to be willing to make change happen ourselves: Rethink food. Rethink priorities. Rethink how you spend your money so it's helping your entire community!
Candice and her team are amazing. She was very thorough and straightforward about everything on our first call. I’m not a visionary, so I let her take the reigns once I answered her questions. I had sooooo many compliments on my flowers and cake. The tasting box was an amazing assortment. My husband and I wanted every flavor. They were all delicious. I usually hate carrot cake, but I fell in love with her version! We also got the same cake in gluten free and you seriously could not tell the difference. The cake froze very well and tasted just as good as it did originally 1 year later!! You can’t go wrong with with Pollen and Pastry.
The food was great. The gluten free pizza was good, not on the buffet. The people were nice. They're going for a western style so everything is wood or dark colors and the air was on artic.
This is the first time I have been inside their shop. Customer service was great, even to my three year old who wanted to try to get into everything. Loved the different options of brats that shows which one has gluten, milk, soy and eggs. Definitely helps in a gluten, milk, and soy free household like we have. Lots of options for us to try. So far we have tried three brats, and they were great. Going to try another couple different ones. Makes a good family dinner to vote on which one they like best at that moment..lol. also got some steaks, and they were absolutely great, couldn't get the season ones because of our allergens, but we used our own seasons and meat was very tender.
Will definitely be going back to try different type of brats.
Great food in a cool space with nice staff. They were nice enough to go over the menu and help explain the gluten free options for my wife and explained their procedures to prevent allergic reactions.
Ordered here for the first time and they were able to accommodate my food sensitivities. (Gluten and dairy) I had the Duck Pad Thai and my friend got duck fried rice. I’ll always be eager to eat again.
Ordering for delivery tonight (via Doordash). HOLY YUM!!! We ordered a few things bc we haven't eaten much Indian food so we wanted a selection to try. Everything was delicious! Love that gluten free options are clearly marked on the website. So excited for these leftovers!
It's so good! Don't let the prices intimidate you either. A large deep dish pizza will really serve 4-6. I wouldn't suggest eating more than two slices ine one meal. It's so good you'll want to though! They have thin crust, but I wouldn't recommend unless you are getting the gluten free pizza. My wife says it is one of the best gluten free pizzas she has ever had.
