The BEST gluten free everything bagel I’ve had in a longgggg time. Get yourself over here if you also can’t have gluten - you won’t regret it!! Iced Oatmilk latte was also delicious!

BEST vegetarian bahn mi I’ve ever had. I have tried spicy lemongrass gluten and tofu mushroom, but I’m sure the curry bean curd is just as amazing. The service is also great, so sweet and patient even when there’s a long line. I’ve also never had to wait long for my foot even when it’s busy.

Got a box from my work for a zoom happy hour. Friendly delivery (according to my wife) and excellent quality and diverse set of food (many many little foods with little flowers, fresh rosemary, etc.). Gluten free options, etc. Well done!

Such a cute restaurant! We couldn't decide so we got one slice of each pie they had for sale today. So delicious!! I love the way they mixed classic pie flavors with new ones I've never had before. You can eat your pie while eating board games upstairs or eat outside. Locally sourced, fresh produce. Everything is labeled with common dietary things like dairy and gluten. They have way more than pie on their menu too! Will definitely have to come back for brunch sometime!! Love this place!
