Their hours on the door are 8-4 we got there at 9:45 am and they are closed. Such a disappointment

I recently discovered this place and it's my new favorite spot! The servers are charming and delightful and make dining there so much fun! Eating out is a challenge for me as I am allergic to gluten and a vegetarian, so I don't often eat out. I'm excited to have found a place with so many options on the menu that I can enjoy.

Found this place online when looking for dairy-free desserts. It’s a cute, small cafe with best vegan soft serve. I 100% had to double check the chocolate soft serve didn’t have dairy in it. I ended up ordering the chai tiramisu with vanilla soft serve and it was amazing. I also got a strawberry donut that was dairy-free and also gluten free. I usually do not like gluten free stuff, but the donut was pretty good too. The cafe is small inside with limited seating but there is lots of free parking.

First time visiting the area with a friend. I ate the roasted corn gluten-free pizza. We both like it. The place is busy with a nice store front. I be back!

If you are not allergic to gluten, dairy, etc.... that's the best place to go in the neighborhood. They even claim that, and it's true.

Adam Miller

This place is really chill and offers great food and service. The pancakes are amazing and come with real maple syrup. The Denver Omelette hit the spot and they had plenty of gluten free options.

Faith Mellott

We usually go here for coffee (because it's delicious) but we had a few prescriptions to pick up at Walgreens and needed something new for dinner so we decided to try their food. BEST DECISION! It tasted phenomenal! We have a few GF members in our family and they loved it! It tasted so good they thought it wasn't actually gluten free (it was though). This is now a new spot for us, we will be eating here on the regular. Madison helped us today and she was so great 😃 very helpful and the service she provided matched the amazing food 100%! 5 stars ALL around! Nice work!

Margaret Wooten

This place is absolutely amazing! The service is outstanding! They went above and beyond to make sure that we had the best gluten free experience ever! Oh how I wish we had one of these in North Carolina!

CStraight

This is one of my favorite Phoenix breakfast restaurants, because they have several tofu scramble choices, and gluten free toast! They also have a great seasoning on their tofu scramble. My husband enjoyed his usual eggs Benedict and the eggs were perfect. If you love a crispy hashbrown, thiers is crisp utopia with every bite a crunchy delite. We also split a fresh squeezed orange juice, and it was like a glass of sunshine. We both enjoyed their self serve coffee which I love because I can make a custom cup of half decaf and half caffeinated.

Very energetic and helpful staff. There were lots of options to accommodate allergies and gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian dietary restrictions with our waitress (Rachel) asking for allergies and dietary restrictions right as we sat down which I was very impressed by! The food was delicious and portion sizes were pretty big and a good value.

Jenna Davis

The gluten free pancake was ok. It wasn’t anything to write home about. The oatmeal was delicious. The biscuits and gravy, and the eggs Benedict was good. I enjoyed the thick cut bacon and their chai tea! The food came out nice and quick, but our waters weren’t refilled and we weren’t offered any additional drinks.

Isaiah VonBraun-Bond

Low quality and poor gluten free options. The wait is long, service is poor, and food exceedingly overpriced.

Josie Ciaciuch

My family and I had an amazing experience at Zooks. We found it on a whim and ordered some gluten free options as well as regular and we were very happy with the end result. Both bread options were delicious and the service was incredible. I cannot recommend this place enough!

When I arrived on my bicycle I was immediately drawn to the atmosphere and warm comfort of the interior decor. It reminded me of this coffee shop I use to go to in Flagstaff. It was a nostalgic feeling of beautiful memories. I ordered the oat milk latte and the tomato basil roasted veggie breakfast bagel. And since it was my first time they gave me a complimentary pastry which I got the Walnut coffee cake! What I really love is that they have such a variety of options especially for those who have dietary restrictions or preferences. Gluten-free, vegan, oat milk, almond milk, etc! And the music is old school cool vibes with a wide variety of genres playing. But the best part is that the people here even the customers are so nice, courteous and well-mannered. I feel like I'm living in a small town with that "small town conversation." -if you know you know. Lol

Nekita Reyna

Elevate made my morning!! The girl who took my order was so kind and welcoming. My coffee is perfection & to top it off, gluten free delicious pesto crepes 🥹 this is a new a tradition when I stop thru PHX.

Lyza Daubert

Absolutely delicious food. Love the vegan and gluten free options.

Michael Press

Yes, it’s popular and busy and there can be a wait, but it’s worth the wait. Plus I’m in love with how they handle the Yelp waitlist, it’s helpful and informative (you get both a text and phone call (201 area code maybe?)) when your table’s ready. Service was OUTSTANDING. We said we were okay with the patio and when we were seated, it was in a corner and a little breezy and we asked to move and they were VERY accommodating. As busy as this place is, I wasn’t that hopeful we’d be able to move so that was a nice touch in and of itself. But our server, Morgan, was just great. She was over the top helpful and completely on top of her game. She was attentive to every little detail (for example, asked on my iced coffee if I wanted the creamer on the side (yes thank you), do you want hot sauce, and on to-go boxes how many we’d need), and even got me a plastic cup for a bonus to-go iced coffee! Handled the payment right in the middle of the dining experience (smoothly, I might add). Very pleasant personality, just great. But all the staff were accommodating and helpful! Food was delicious, portion sizes are really big, too, so it’s a great value. Hollandaise is delicious on the Benedict dishes, and you can even get it as a side - for a very reasonable up-charge in my opinion, and I often take issue with some restaurants’ up-charges on certain things, so when I say it’s reasonable, it really is). Link sausage was delicious, not too spicy, great texture. Eggs over easy were perfectly over easy. AND the gluten-free bread for toast (my wife has a gluten allergy) is the best GF bread I’ve ever tasted (I taste it myself sometimes and most GF breads don’t taste like gluten breads but this one I couldn’t even tell it was GF). Hash browns are really good too, they don’t over-spice them, but they’re thinly sliced, crispy on the edges, and taste great. Couldn’t be happier and will return.

Mischa Hepner

The reviews say great vegan options but they don’t have any vegan options. The lady at the register said we could modify dishes to make them vegan (which can be dove at any place) but no vegan pastries. We actually did find a vegan pastry marketed as gluten free but it did not look good at all so we didn’t try it. The employees are very nice and very laid back. The açaí bowl was good and the star of a mediocre show. For non-vegans, the omelette was lukewarm and the potatoes were room temp. The coffee was very average and not even as good as the big chain. I had to choose between two shots or four, can’t have an odd number.

I love that they have a gluten free breakfast sandwich! They need to build more locations!

Esme Reyes

Without a doubt a place that you should know. Starting with the interior and exterior design, the environment... The staff is very friendly and they know what to recommend, by the way the seasonal drinks are very delicious, lots of flavor and little sugar!! Super delicious desserts with gluten free options. Something that surprised me apart from how delicious everything is is the size of the bathroom (sorry I had to mention it). Now added to my pin as Favorite By the way it gets full so take your time.😜👌🏼

Donnie P

Sprouts has great seasonal produce and a bunch is health conscious, gluten free, vegan and many specialty products at very reasonable prices!!

Emily Lopex

First time here. I needed a place to hang out while my car was at the mechanic. I got an iced Americano with vanilla cold foam and it was very good. I chose this coffee shop because I have celiac disease and the reviews stated they have gluten free options. They did not disappoint! I got gluten free avocado toast and this huge gluten free muffin/cupcake thing. It was actually too much food to eat, which is rare for someone who can only eat gluten free. The girls on staff were super sweet and helpful. Loved the atmosphere. I will definitely be back!

I am a vegetarian, allergic to dairy and gluten free - finding sandwiches that have some substance with these restrictions can be really difficult. I stopped in today for a sandwich and they were so helpful. The veggie sandwich was phenomenal. The garlic olive oil sauce on the side was divine. I have a new favorite sandwich place. Ps: if the owners are reading this, the canyon bakehouse gluten-free bread was perfect. I hope that you switch to this permanently from the udis as it’s a step up!! I’ll be back!

Victor Mann

I had the opportunity to explore "Steep Tea Company." My son has Celiac disease and it necessitates a gluten-free diet. Steep provides a completely plant-based (vegan) and gluten-free menu, which includes specialty teas, lattes, cold brews, and elixirs. Their menu includes some impressive-looking vegan English muffin sandwiches. The contemporary and welcoming decor, combined with a courteous service staff, and general store amenities. Steep is a must stop for your favorite plant based beverages and goodies and best part is, it all comes at reasonably priced.

Nicole Spear

Been coming here for a few years. Great place and have Gluten Free items. Owner is so sweet and food is always top notch.

Lauryn

Highly highly recommend. Food was good, they have gluten free options. And coffee was delicious. We got the flight and I even got one more to go it was so good. Super cute spot.

Lindsay Walsh

Great place to get coffee or a mimosa and chill or work. Great vibe. Lots of tables, comfy couches, and a bar available to sit at. Gluten free options including breakfast sandwiches available 🤌

B Gilbert

Incredible espresso pull if you’re a purist. Proper my served with sparkling water. Better than your average Main Street shop. Could use more seating. Gluten free pastry option.

Lindsey Killeen

Cute little coffee shop with top notch service. They have two types of chai - sweet and spicy. I like to get a mix of both the sweet and spicy and it’s delicious. They also have gluten free peanut butter cookies that are out of this world. One of my downtown Phoenix favorites!

Sidney

Pip is one of my favorite places in the valley. They have a fantastic assortment of coffee drinks, non coffee drinks, and alcoholic options. Their pastries are always top tier and I love their pip-tarts. They’ve always got a good variety of gluten free options as well, which always have great flavor. Their staff is always so friendly and welcoming, making it a great place to meet up with friends. Additionally, I have gone to their pottery wheel class twice and it makes such a great gift for family, or friends. Cannot recommend this place highly enough, everyone should check out Pip!!!

Law Sistar

Great coffee shop for bites, lattes and getting some work done. Had the BAB breakfast which consisted of eggs, crispy smashed potatoes and avocado. BAB was fresh and hot, and i added the hot sauce. I also ordered the gluten free lemon loaf which was very tasty and paired well either an oatmilk latte. First time but not the last time I'll patronize this "beestro"

Andrew Fleming

Amazing protein shakes and their gluten free peanut butter balls are uh-maze-ing

Lee Miller

The drip coffee and gluten free breakfast cookie I had today were both amazing!

Jesse Parra

Super friendly staff, great coffee and pastries, they even have gluten free cookies. The mexican mocha coffee 8s to die for.

Emily Guile

Good for what it is! Popped in for a quick lunch. Servers were friendly and kind. Food arrived fast. Really wish they offered a gluten free bread/bun option but the "Adam & Eve" treatment for the burger wasn't bad (enough lettuce for a salad!). The burger was tasty and the lemonade did not disappoint. Next time I'm going for the chips and deviled eggs!

cynthia Ceballos

Cute hidden restraunt my brother found after hiking. Absolutely loved it! Was delicious, not expensive, customer service was amazing kept checking in on us if we needed anything, and kept offering refills. Great choices for food, my sister has a very sensitive stomach so them having gluten free, sugar free, etc food choices really did help! Absolutely loved it ! Will definitely be back

Kimberly Tate

So much goodness! Tons of gluten free options & the chicken salad is the absolute best!

Ed Eyden

I was totally impressed with the selection of foods and dishes that were all vegan, many of them gluten-free as well. Taste was not compromised in any dish. In addition, they had a nice selection of beer and wine. Our group had a wonderful lunch in a nice atmosphere that wasn't too crowded or loud. I'm not sure what dinners are like, but will definitely go back.

Lindsay Walsh

Asked for gluten free and was assured the press was cleaned in between sandwiches. For the turkey blt but subbed out the cheddar. Was very good. It felt sort of like eating a sandwich potpie. Either way kept in all the sauce and was really good. Crispy Diet Coke 👌

Jessica Yi

Donut quality was great! So delicious, especially their gluten free😊 Abby was great at greeting!

Marlene Connor

Great food, large portions, gluten-free pancakes. Best staff ever

Jada Hamilton

Customer service is amazing!! gluten free waffle and Protein shake was delicious and macros are crazy good. Definitely my new favorite spot

Celeste Roam (Roaming EO girl)

Such a clean, quick, and good food place! Service is always friendly and helpful. I enjoy visiting every time I am in town. I love the gluten free options and ease of modifying menu items to my needs. A great healthy food option for sure!

Matt Parsons

The coffee here is incredible. They offer rare coffees with great flavor profiles for those who don't typically enjoy the roasty burnt offerings of Starbucks. My fiancee and I both got separate pour overs and really enjoyed the varietals available, the Chelbesa Danche was our preference over the Mangesha. I got the cream cheese pear and huckleberry Danish and she got the vanilla custard and orange Danish. Our son really enjoyed his gluten free chocolate donut.

Jean Laninga

Love it! I enjoy trying different places for coffee and this is one of my favorites! We also got a good breakfast with eggs, hashbrowns, bacon and gluten free toast. Parking has changed from the adjacent lot to across the street or else there’s towing risk, so beware!

Ms Alhadi

Hello Celiac friends :) . This is one of the gems that you literally find and go and enjoy which me and my family did. We went on a Monday, let me tell you about their waffles they are gluten free. I messaged the owner on Instagram and he confirmed that they are gluten-free and that they're cast never seen gluten 😭😀😀 they were delicious. If you have a dairy allergy they have two other options which is a matcha and a regular waffle which are also delicious. My sisters that are not celiac tried their chicken panini and they said it was delicious. We also tried the Sicilian dragon lemonade which was very yummy. So if you're in 7th Street in Phoenix pay them a visit, The atmosphere is quite nice and they have outdoor seating with pets allowed :)

Chantal Regan

Great place. Lots of options. The sorbet is gluten free and dairy free and so creamy. The staff is nice and has patience wirh trying flavors. Highly recommended!

Victoria H

Amazing space for coworking space or meeting clients - roomy and modern. Personable and friendly baristas. Appreciated the gluten free pastry option. They don't mess around with giving you a health dose of espresso to start the day ! Would love a 20 oz hot beverage option in the future ! One can dream . Bonus points for the mini stoppers!
