I would not recommend this place for allergies, especially for people with celiacs. Unfortunately, places like this are the most dangerous for people with food allergies. The menu is marked and seems inclusive, but the staff I interacted with was not aware and did not care or take note when I asked about gluten free options and said that I have a gluten allergy.
The person working didn’t know what I was talking about when I asked if the fries are fried in a shared fryer and was annoyed when I asked if she could check. She left and didn’t come back with a clear answer so, I played it as safe as possible and my food still came out carelessly on bread. I brought it to the counter and they brought it right back out without the bread. No communication. At that point I started noticed the lipstick on marks on my water cup and the jars of shared condiments where anyone can dip whatever utensils they want into it (including contaminated knives spreading on bread and back). I was grossed out. I have celiacs. These details matter. I know how to navigate menus and how to respectfully advocate for the bare minimum. It’s not clean and it’s not safe.
With 19 unique empanadas and a vibrant neighborhood charm, this cozy corner spot is a must-visit for savory delights!

First time here It was recommended. I ordered 2 gluten free beef empanadas and 3 chicken and a regular chicken. The beef were actually beans I didn't see any beef and tasted only beans so no beef. I also didn't notice that one chicken was missing, but I had walked a long way and didn't go back to correct order. I ate what I received (though I'm not a bean person) and they were good. The chicken I had pickup for someone else... I will revisit when I'm in the area again. Coming from Brooklyn is a long way👀 and will check the order before walking away.. its a curb side spot so you order from a window.
Unique vibes and quick service make this spot a go-to for delicious drinks and standout desserts, all in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere.

Love this place. Not only do they make great iced and hot drinks, but their desserts are so good. It’s difficult to get really good gluten-free sweets without sacrificing either texture or taste but they have cracked the code. Whether in-store or getting delivery, your order is delish and quick.
I usually like this place but I waited an hour and a half for them to make my food wrong twice. I ordered the spam bun gluten free and when it first came out after waiting 50min it had crunchy onions on it that are not gluten free and asked them to remake it. I ordered the noodles but once it was remade they gave me rice.
Lovely neighborhood spot for delicious crepes (sweet and savory) and steak frites. Great French wines available at a reasonable price too. Good options for vegetarians and Gluten free
Charming and walkable, this spot offers a diverse menu, extensive beverage choices, and delightful coffee, including a must-try lavender latte.

This place is a fave — it’s cute, walkable to the park, and has such a varied menu. Also, it carries such delicious gluten-free treats! I try to get a lamington slice whenever I pass by. The bev menu is extensive and the coffee is great. Honorable mention to the lavender latte, it’s def worth a try! ☕️

Goodies here are delicious. They can be just cause or a special occasion. I ordered macrons for my wedding that were amazing, they were fresh n super flavorful all guest loved them. I will continue to order and definitely refer Sweet LIL Sweets to all friends and family. Also good to know they were gluten free for my grand daughter.

This spot is the best — I love the protein shakes & fruit smoothies, as well as the owner’s commitment to the neighborhood! He listens to customers and is super knowledgeable about allergy-friendly & gluten-free options. All the ingredients are always fresh, and each visit somehow tops the last, it’s really incredible. If I could give this place more stars, I would! 🌟
Updating to add: the gluten-free granola is so good, and is kept separate to ensure no cross-contamination (AJ is the best!!!). The smoothie bowls are delicious, I can’t recommend this place enough! 💜
Finally visited this wonderful shop! Well curated selection of Italian pantry goods, cheese, deli, and prepared foods. Lots of neat Sicilian products. They had a selection of gluten free pasta and flour. Great addition to the neighborhood. Can’t wait to eat my way through the store!
