Absolutely spoilt for choice!

I love the Bakery at Kith and Kin for GF muffins and treats. I also LOVE being able to order ANYTHING on the menu and know it will be safe to eat for those of us with celiacs. I bring my friends who do not have issues with gluten because I know that Tim and his peeps are cooking just great food!

Got my gluten free wedding cake and holiday treats here.

Magdalena Strasser

was great quick , affordable and easy

Iris Sagitta

High-quality desserts for fair prices.

Amber Easterling

This is a 100% GF bakery and coffee shop. I was so excited to get a cinnamon roll! I wish I had gotten a blueberry muffin to go! Next time for sure! They also have a restaurant down the street! They only take cash or AMEX so be prepared.

My first place to eat in NYC and my first time in a 100% GF restaurant. everything was so good, I got the Açaí bowl and the Classic Cheese Bread whilst my Grandmother got the Panini, she can eat gluten but said it was the best bread she’d ever had! I’d highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for bread you can chew!

The food is great, but expensive. I like going there. I wish they would do gluten free bread without oats and have more vegan cake options.

Maria Hadjichristoforou

Happened to pass by this adorable gluten-free crepe shop and was surprised to find the best crepe I’ve ever had! (And I’m not even gluten-free.) Definitely a must try when visiting the East Village!

Jen Wiener

Delicious, 100% gluten free restaurant

Heather Blackard

I absolutely love it here! The food and desserts are so delicious. The staff is wonderful. I have Hashimotos and needed to be gluten/dairy free. I’ve brought my friends who don’t have a gluten intolerance and they also love it! They couldn’t believe that it was gluten free with how delicious the food is. Highly recommend!

Jake Cameron

This place is fantastic! We went for a quick cocktail, but ended up staying for dinner as the happy hour food menu had some great options. Fantastic service, cocktails, and food across the board (also several gluten free options). Looking forward to returning!

Philip Seaver

This place is amazing. The dips are so fun. The people working there are super fun to talk to and the coffee is better than Starbucks in my opinion. And as a vegan with celiac it’s super hard for me to find good desserts in NYC. Thank god for El Churro!!!

Nicole Rowley

We traveled from NC to visit family on LI. With two celiacs it’s always scary to travel and known where you can safely eat. This is a celiacs heaven. From the bagels to the vegan muffin options, we had a delicious and better yet safe to watch breakfast! We will definitely be going again before we leave.

A M

Fantastic empanadas. Highly recommend– especially the mango pork!! The sauce they come with is amazing. And everything is gluten free, so it is safe for anyone with gluten intolerance or celiac.

we ordered coffee, bagels and cinnamon buns. The coffee was lukewarm. we asked the worker if it was possible to warm it up a little bit, and he gave us the dirtiest look and attitude ever. He did offer to remake it but made it sound like it was like a huge inconvenience (I refused). The bagels were average at best. the cinnamon buns were very dense. Overall a bad experience.

Christian Novissimo

Me and my kids are gluten free. It's almost impossible to find good gluten free pizza and most are made from premade frozen crusts. Not the case here. Our Sicilian pizza was great and was a great size. No skimping at all. We also ordered some cannolis, both regular and gluten free and they were also top notch. Definitely a spot to check out.

Madeleine Mack

My daughter is celiac and they did a wonderful job making her feel special. It was so great to tell her to order whatever she wants 🙂 So happy they have restaurants like this! Thank you

Sharon McCaskill, RDN

Such yummy baked goods! 100% gluten free and super nice owners & staff. Good vegan selection too!

Lina Kolker

Standard diner fare, but with gluten free options! The first thing the hostess asked us, was if anyone needed a gluten free menu. They have a dedicated fryers. My daughter enjoyed her meal.

Ephraim Lasar

Every time I’m in the area, I have to stop here. I’m not vegan or gluten free, but the food is just good. It tastes good and it feeds my sole! I tend to go for the soups which are hearty and flavorful, but everything I’ve tried here has been spot on.

Emily T

Amazing! Everything is gluten free but baked to perfection. No weird textures or chewy reproductions here - just delicious baked goods. Only (slight) criticism is the portions are so big it didn’t allow me to try more things! My non-GF kid loved it as well and couldn’t tell the difference.

Lynn Havens

Your waitress Beth was wonderful. My friends teenage daughter cannot have gluten and Beth helped her choose the best food for her. She took great care to make sure every food my friend had was gluten free. Besides that she was attentive and a wonderful waitress.

Chris M

The empanadas were gluten-free, which is great for my wife and I, and they were delicious. We both had tostones with different toppings on them, and we loved those as well. This was a great find.

Tammy Miller

Fantastic food! Stop even if you dont need gluten free. You won't be disappointed!!!!

Maria Mogavero

I just about wanted to cry when I did a search for “gluten free near me” after finishing a Sunday long run in Hastings-on-Hudson and By The Way popped up! The shop is adorable and the gf pastries are beautiful. I bought a small apple cake and a mini cream puff (def needed more cream but maybe it was an anomaly of the batch) and a coffee. Will certainly be ending next week’s long run in that direction.

Jocelyn Dugan

Bagels are life. Rainy Monday morning gray. Great service abound. Bay Area tourists. Delicious cream cheese selections. Chewy gluten good.

olivia rooney

as an individual with celiac… this place is my all time favorite. when i was diagnosed with celiac 12 years ago… gluten free food was not necessary mainstream and it was hard to find good, safe food. this place was a savior for me. this place is amazing and has the best food. i’ve came here frequently throughout my celiac journey and never had any reactions and it’s delicious every time. 10/10 recommend.

laura Palmer

amazing food, very accommodating to Celiac

Joanna B

The experience is 5 stars. I was searching gluten free doughnuts and I found this place. Let me clarify what others write. Only Munchkin is gluten free, dairy free and egg free. Mochi doughnuts and cream puffs are gluten free only. I had Matcha munchkins. They were divine! Soft inside and slightly crunchy outside. They were warm with some icing sugar on top. They were freshly deep fried, but they weren't greasy and heavy. In my opinion they were tasting like a real doughnut, so go for it! The gentleman who served me gave all the information and he was nice and helpful. I recommend this place! I will definitely come back!

Brittany W

Completely separate gluten free area, celiac safe!

Andrew Catalano

The food was terrific and the staff friendly. On top of all that they had the best gluten free menu I've seen around. Perfect for my fiancee!

Debbie Williams

I love this place!! Their coffee is delicious. I love how they fresh bake everything here and have gluten free options! Customer service is wonderful love coming back over and over. Afternoon coffee has now become an addiction lol!

Neil Frutuoso

I thought the breakfast sandwich was great, they definitely use fresh ingredients. The wife got an avocado toast and the egg was a bit undercooked, over easy is ok but the white wasn’t cooked and when broken it leaked a clearish liquid. They do have an assortment of gluten free baked goods but if you have celiac please note they are cross contaminated which they lady behind the counter told us.

Everything is made with tapioca and completely gluten free and really accommodating with nut allergies too!

Jordan Trice

To say their food is delicious is an understatement. They have been my go-to bakery for the last 7years. They are able to accommodate every dietary need I throw at them and make it taste amazing. They can easily accommodate gluten, dairy, nut, egg, soy, and sesame allergies. They now also a variety of "stuffed cupcakes" where you can have pudding, fruit, etc as a filling inside of your Cupcake. They also have a variety of pre-made cookie/baking mixes if you would rather bake it at home. I have been a customer of theirs since they were located on Vestal Ave & Mary st. And to watch them grow to the size they are today is a testament to the quality of goods they sell. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

Isabelle Rowley

Amazing gluten free options! Great atmosphere:)

Brittany

Fantastic service! Love the gluten free options, too.

Dev

the baked goods are so tasty! my most recent visit here was to get a gluten free cupcake for my friend for my birthday party. I was shocked to see how many gluten free options there were to chose from! she LOVED the gf carrot cake!!

Jessica Harley

Loved the apricot honey on gluten-free breakfast tacos and the shaken oat milk espresso. Quality with a healthy dollop of flavor taking the meal above and beyond.

Meeka Fayetima

The service is 10/10 and the cafe is cute but the food is quite bad and overpriced. Almost $30 for a NASTY lasagna with zero sides. Smoothies start at like $12 dollars. The cupcake was edible but not something I would reorder. If you’re gluten free and this is your only option, you will be sad. If you aren’t gluten free and just trying to watch what you eat, please try somewhere else. The food is bland and doesn’t taste like anything. There are plenty of other vegan restaurants that are cheaper and taste much better. I feel terrible because the service was so good but i just can’t do this again.

Catherine O

Do not go here! If you are a coeliac absolutely do not eat here. My mum got a gluten free pizza here and got very sick after. Minimal effort to reduce cross contamination. We ordered take away and gave a $50 note. The man behind the counter got the change but before passing it took a 30% tip out for himself. Did not provide any actual service. We’ve been travelling America for a month and never experienced anything like this.

El Ninja Seven7

Just go there and try the donuts yourself. It will be the best decision you've made all week, I guarantee it! There's nothing to sell here.They make amazing donuts with love. Is straight up fresh every day , not frozen vegan option and gluten free! Just get there early because they do run out of donuts sometimes.😀

Danielle Morris

Best allergy safe bakery! It is so nice to go into a shop and not have to worry about if you’re going to get sick from anything because Emy does an amazing job keeping her food allergy friendly. I have celiac disease, and allergies to both soybeans and cow dairy. I have had treats from the bakery since 2021 and will always want to keep on coming back. The carrot cake cupcakes, jelly thumb cookies and smoothies are my favorites.

Timothy Shows

Mama’s curry was out of control. Fresh veggies and kimchi in the coconut based dish. Everything VEGAN and GLUTEN FREE.

Jay Woz

This is a perfect place to have a coffee and a treat with friends! Everyone there is so friendly. Their sweet treats are awesome. And they have Gluten Free choices. Recently I ordered a Gluten Free treat for my Wifes birthday and I mistakenly chose the wrong date for pickup. Totally my fault! They went out of their way to make the treat for today, the right day. They didnt have to do that but I am so thankful they did. Thank you so very much.
