As someone who follows a gluten-free diet, I was excited to try this bakery, especially since they promote themselves as catering to the gluten-free community. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing and frustrating.
While they do have a few gluten-free cakes using alternative flours like almond, coconut, and oat (which is great!), the overall offering is extremely limited. Most of their savory pastries — empanadas, quiches, and other baked goods — are made with regular whole-grain flour. That completely defeats the purpose of claiming to be a gluten-free bakery. It’s confusing and misleading.
They also offer gluten-free cinnamon rolls, but only on weekends, and their gluten-free “pan de jamón” is reserved for holidays like Christmas and Thanksgiving. So if you’re looking for a reliable daily gluten-free option, you’re out of luck. It really feels like they’re having an identity crisis — not sure if they want to be a gluten-free bakery or just occasionally offer gluten-free items.
To make things worse, the service at the counter is cold and unhelpful. Staff seem uninterested and annoyed when asked basic questions about the products. There’s no signage or clear explanation about what is or isn’t gluten-free, and you’re left guessing what you can eat.
Overall, this place has potential — there’s a clear demand for gluten-free bakeries — but unless they fully commit to their concept and improve their customer experience, I honestly think a new bakery with a clear gluten-free mission could come in and easily do it better.
