Daughter has Celiac disease. Specifically asked cashier about gluten free cones. Was told all you had was the regular type gf cone. She was very excited and literally only ordered a child's portion just to get the cone. The ice cream (which she really didn't want) was then served in a cup with a statement of "we don't have anymore cones." I told attendant we'd just take refund for hers. Was informed they don't do refunds on card purchases and they'd have to wait until they could contact "corporate". We are from out of state! Traveling! Obviously, we won't be waiting around! 59 years old and I've NEVER heard of such a thing. Specifically ask for a certain product (for serious health reasons). Told it was available. Paid for it. Told it wasn't available and denied a refund. That's some pretty cheesy service. FYI. The actual ice cream was phenomenal.

Via's cookies offer the homemade experience you crave, while supporting struggling college students. I'm a particular fan of the vegan, gluten-free varieties and love that we can order these for a group and know there will be something for everyone.

I love CTB and always go whenever I'm in town. Please be careful packing your food, though -- we ordered a vegetarian bagel on sesame and another on a gluten free bagel and they were packed so that each box had half of each bagel.

Lovely, quiet cafe perfect for meeting friends, family, or just hanging out doing work. The menu is small but has a good variety of drinks and treats, options for gluten and dairy free as well. Everything seems sourced very well and handmade. I hope they eventually will have more lunch available soon, as they seem to only do it for a short period of time with only a few specials every day. Love the savory and sweet hand pies! Blueberry with lemon glaze is my favorite.

WOW! I mean. These are so good. If you haven't tried these yet, absolutely do yourself and your loved ones a huge favor and scoot on down to Press Bay Alley to get some! At this point, I've tried quite a few. They are ALL incredibly tasty. I'm a fan of more savory flavors and the potato Cheddar one, the poblano one and the mushrooms one are simply amazing. My mouth is literally watering just thinking about the rich delicious cheesy goodness...the flaky crust..and there's veggies in them so ya know, they're healthy! They have vegan options and gluten free ones too!! All yummy!! For sweet pies, I've had one with apples and a cherry one. Eeee! They are fantastic of course. Everyone I have shared Mama Said with has instantly been converted into a fan. They're the perfect food. Enjoy!

Highly recommend! They have gluten free options for bagel or toast. Made to order right on the spot, quick courteous service, nice atmosphere. Privately owned. Also, as far as we could find the only real smoothie place around!

Awesome compact grocery store with many healthy options in Collegetown. It's very convenient if you live in the neighborhood and is walk distance to most of the dorms. If you're looking for organic, gluten free, all natural, high quality food, shop here.
