Wide array of delicious gluten and dairy free options. The bagel sandwich and doughnut options were top notch. There is a nice place to sit in the ally just to the left of the store.

Found this little cafe on Christmas Eve and we're glad we did. Went for breakfast. The food was very fresh and tasted great. Coffee was also very nice. Plenty of gluten free options so everyone is covered. Service was fast and attentive.

This is a long time favorite of mine .. their Spanish latte... Sooooo good .. especially the strong version... Their food is ok... They run out of healthier options pretty early, even at 9.30am, such as breakfast burrito gluten free tortillas... So go there early if you need or prefer certain options...

This was a surprise Gem! Brief & thoughtful menu with gluten free options for me. The space is a little industrial looking, but I guess that’s cool these days? It was a little busy, but it only took a few minutes for I find parking, which was free, and we didn’t wait long to order at the counter or for our food to be delivered to our table. The seating picnic tables outside, which was perfect in a sunny LA day. The table was pretty dirty. Nobody came to clean, so we got napkins and cleaned it ourselves. Everything we ordered was good. They managed to make the cauliflower rice in the grain bowl delicious. The gluten free squash pancakes were heaven. (Ask for another serving of syrup and skip the sweetened avocado). Oh and did I say I’m gluten free? The GF items were thoughtful and intentional…not your average consolation prize plate that they offer at so many places. As we were finishing up, a line had formed and people were waiting for a place to sit. We offered the people hovering over us if they’d like to join us, but they declined. (Maybe it’s not that kind of crowd?)

The gentleman that serviced us was very nice. I told him I was allergic to gluten and he was able to recommend the avocado toast. That's what I really wanted, but I didn't think they had gotten free bread. They did! 🤭🥹 This is a cute little place with a vibe. I highly recommend it. They have a bathroom for customers. OMG they even have a doggy treat and water for our four legged friends. 🐕
