Best place for hungry people in downtown MV. Informal good food and for celiacs the crepes are gluten free.

Fantastic gluten free options!

I love this bakery and the 4.9 star rating is legit. The people are so kind, I believe it’s run by a family. The breads don’t contain sugar or yeast - just good, old sourdough. I’m gluten sensitive, but because this bread doesn’t contain sugar or yeast I can have it (albeit in small amounts). The Focaccia is really good too. I love supporting local businesses and this place is a gem.

The food was very delicious and we enjoyed their menu combi deals that have an excellent value. Their cooks a.re very fast and the outdoor seating area is nice, but nothing outstanding. Their menu is perfectly designed with all food allergies listed and they have options for dairy-free, gluten-free etc.! Parking is available right at the entrance.

Hidden gem that you can drive right by if you didn't know about it. I greedily go there to get their Sticky Buns almost every weekend. They also have seasonal danishes that have fruit and custard in the middle. Their seasonal muffins are good too. They have a wide variety of gluten goodies and a coffee shop, but it is the Sticky Buns that does it for me. I have a special way of eating them: I cut the "muffin top" off, heat it up a little in the microwave, uncoil the muffin top and eat right down to the center of it. The bottom half is eaten the same way and I save the buttery sweet center for last. Sometimes I save the outer part of the bottom half for last because the sweet caramelized glaze that is on there gives a nice chew :).. I'm done! I added photos.

Clock Tower has a couple of extra special features that make it worth a look: they have their own roaster, and several of their tasty baked goods are gluten-free.

The sausages here are particularly good and there is a decent selection of non-alcoholic drinks e.g. ginger beer. I also very much appreciate the gluten-free beer option. I tend to avoid Wednesday nights due to the noisy pub quizz.

I guess it has been a couple years since I ate at a Panera Bread, but I remember them being more catering to the people like me who have to eat Gluten Free. There used to be a "secret menu" that you could order from and be assured there was a salad bowl or grain bowl that would be gluten-free and usually dairy-free. Now seems things have changed and I had to really explain to the cashier my dilemma and needing to do a gluten free option. I thought he understood and I was able to get a quinoa/rice bowl with avocado and sauce and topped that with a fried egg. But when my order came, there was a nice bread roll next to it - whomp whomp. I would have thought that the person working at Panera Bread would know that bread contains gluten. I guess not. But meal was good and I didn't get sick - I exchanged the bread for chips when the server brought it out. I'm not sure why I wasn't asked for my choice of a side when I placed my order, but whatever.

First I have to say that it's hard for me to give a "high" rating for a breakfast place. The first time I came here I would have given in a 3.5 stars (Benedict with roasted potatoes), but this summer for my second visit I give it 4.5 stars. Why? Have you ever had a portabello mushroom omelet which is well-cooked? (think fresh pieces of mushroom sauteed and enveloped in an egg that is soft and fluffy) Last time (within a few weeks of them opening) I had the roasted potatoes which were a little crunchy/raw and this time I got the hash browns which were crispy and potato-ey. And gosh I have to give them props for having a gluten-free toast option. Also the matcha lemonade made for a nice shift away from coffee to accompany my brunch meal. The photos I'm posting have a red hue from the orange patio awning that allows you to eat outdoors with comfy cushions and nice green plants.

All I can say is that we were a very large group and we enjoyed the food very much. The way the food was cooked with a hint of charred edges and a tender centre was so satisfying and mouthwatering at the same time. They accommodated all my Gluten Free requirements. The staff are not just nice but also so friendly that you will feel like buddies!

Amazing food, great service, and a light-airy atmosphere. The owner was so kind and helpful. I highly recommend the veggie combo plate…it literally was so delicious!! Has vegan, vegetarian & gluten-free options. I highly recommend this place… A++ ❤️

Gerry Yen

Love the place. They have gluten free and vegan dessert that my son loves. Get the rice cake and red bean banana cake.

Gary Borella

Great service, they also have a good gluten free breakfast sandwich.

The latte was good, the gluten-free pastry very good. I went for the open mic though, and my name wasn’t called before intermission, when I had to leave. Performances I saw were a very mixed bag—mostly covers with strummed acoustic guitars, and two people doing stand up that I found off putting. A couple musical performances were surprisingly loud (like the co-host’s, who belted out two and a half songs—he gave up during one [Foo Fighters song?] because he couldn’t remember how it went). The sound guy needed to turn it down a bit, I think. It’s a coffee shop open mic. We shouldn’t need to bring earplugs to protect our ears. But they do have a sound guy, which is a plus.

Good is adequate but fast and their crispy tacos can be gluten free.
