All of the baked goods and coffee drinks are amazing. The love that goes into every pastry is very obvious. The gluten free products are some of the best I’ve had.

Brigs is a great spot for breakfast! Every month they offer new pancake options - December is gingerbread! Plates and omelets are wonderful, too. Gluten-free and vegetarian options available.

A surprisingly quick visit with fresh fries and a clean interior makes for a pleasant stop, plus a tasty kale salad twist.

I wanted to use my points before the year ends, so I stopped at the closest location near me. Surprisingly, at 5 pm, there was no line. We went thru the drive-through this time, but the inside is always clean. All of the associates we engaged with during this visit were kind. Our fries were fresh! My sandwich on gluten-free bread was perfect. This was my first time trying the crunchy kale salad. It was good. But I didn't receive the almonds that compliment it. I received tomatoe crispy red bell peppers instead.

The kitchen is dirty. Proper cleaning of dishes is not followed. Sandwiches put on dirty pans to heat up. Brownies are from a box. They claim to have gluten free options but do not use different utensils for this, lots of cross contamination. Use dirty rags to wipe down tables and counters. Never saw employees wash hands.

I had a vegan wrap, and my husband had the chicken wrap. It was delicious! The food was so natural and free of additives. I had a gluten-free wrap. I will be back many times.

We grabbed a coffee to go. The offer oatmilk and almond milk as their non-dairy options. Most of their syrups are vegan as well. They had some pastry choices, but none of them were gluten free. However, they did have some Big Spoon bars, which are gluten free, but have raw honey in them, so some vegans may not partake. Good atmosphere and great service. A little small with regard to outdoor seating and could use some gluten free vegan pastry options to get them 5 stars in my book. Overall, a good local place to check out if you're in the area.
