I went to the bakery on Friday and literally everything I bought was amazingly tasty. I’ve been a coeliac for over 15 years and it was the best bread in the sandwich I have tasted. Also had a brownie and a pastry for the next day. Just delicious, the owner and actually another regular customer went out of their way to help me in English explaining what everything was. Thank you so much 🌸

I asked over the phone about glute free and celiac disease, how they do it in the kitchen without contamination. It was confirmed to me that they will clean everything so there is no contamination, I would have to mention this when ordering. Well, we drove straight there full of anticipation. I placed the order with the express note "I cannot tolerate gluten, everything must be prepared without touching gluten, I just made a phone call and was assured the kitchen would be cleaned." Unfortunately, the operation didn't understand it correctly due to their understanding of the language. Burger was prepared very quickly, I asked again when paying (as take away) and it was confirmed to me again that everything had been cleaned. And voilà, burgers with gluten-free buns that are baked separately in the oven but the rest of the burger is contaminated. The restaurant is NOT recommended for people with celiac disease! It was very hot and stuffy in the restaurant. I haven't found the service good for a few months. Burgers taste delicious if you don't have celiac disease!

Went with a group of friends on a Wednesday night and we had a blast. Our server was amazing and went along with our shenanigans. He had great wine recommendations and helped us with gluten free options. The food is delicious & good sized portions. Highly recommend! Brunch here is also wonderful!

Every time you visit the ice cream is even better - I have no idea how the charming owner does it. Everything is of course vegan, many varieties are gluten-free and taste simply fantastic! On an addiction scale of 1 - 10, a straight 12!

This place ticks all the boxes for hosting gatherings! It’s got a really quirky aesthetic and a delightful vibe, it’s just the right size space, not too large and not too small. The back room is the perfect venue for hosting farewells, we did two here recently, just booked a few tables and easy to set up a bar tab with wristbands. Staff were wonderful, kids were welcome and so easy to entertain here. Food is reasonably priced and there’s so much variety, even gluten-free options. Bar has plenty of variety of cocktails. I love this place (so much more than markthalle and my kids can’t escape or disappear so it’s actually relaxing!). The only drawback is the back room gets a bit hot in Summer, they should open it up at the back (there’s already a door) to get a breeze and add plants and fans!

You know how you walk into a cafe just cuz a friend wants to go there & then you take a sip of coffee & then you are addicted & then you have to go out of your way to go back there the next day cuz it is so ridiculously delightful? That. And also, great gluten-free chocolate cake that is very worthy of being called cake. 😂

Very satisfied. I didn't have much time as I only had a short transfer time at the train station. I walked to the Swiss McDonald's with my luggage because there are no gluten-free burgers in the German McDonald's. It's been years since I've been able to eat a burger. That's why I took my chance in Basel :) When I got there, everything happened very quickly. I was able to pay in euros (only cash notes are accepted) and got the change back in Swiss currency. The gluten-free burger felt like it was ready after just 20 to 30 seconds and I had enough time to take my next train without rushing. Very cool 👍
