I don’t understand how they’re still in business. The service is decent, but the baked goods are terrible. I tried them years ago when there were hardly any gluten free bakeries around, so they were a decent option considering there was almost nothing else available, but after all these years nothing has improved and there are far better options out there. The frosting is awful and they really need to develop a new recipe. The cakes are dry and just don’t taste that great. One of the items i got was so disgustingly sweet I had to throw it away after a few bites. Everything is completely overpriced especially considering how terrible they are. I’ll just keep going to Modern Bread and Bagel and Kirari West because Erin Mckenna’s is not worth it with the quality of their recipes

I got a couple of donuts and a cupcake and was totally blown away! The girls were super friendly. I would totally go back for more. I have hasimotos so I avoid gluten and eggs have given me a problem for years now. Finally I can enjoy my cake without any problems!! Love love love

My favorite place for safe gf ice cream! I always get their gf v cone too. Their cookies are also amazing, they do have dairy in them though.

Server natalie j was a gem! She was very careful with my Celiac disease. The food was great, the short rib was a little over done, however, the beverages were superb, and I had a great time overall!

I can’t speak to cross contamination but the fries were good and they had the best gf burger bun I’ve ever had in my life! They also had 2 gf dessert options.

Bro this place is a sin in all the best ways! They have gluten free and dairy free options that don’t make you feel like you’re missing out on great treats! This is probably the best tasting I’ve cream I’ve ever had, not even exaggerating. I’m addicted to Jeni’s… it’s becoming a problem

Crepes are made fresh then your chosen ingredients are added ( I chose bananas, chocolate chips, brown sugar and custard! Yum!) then the whole thing is folded and rolled into a cone which makes it very easy to eat even when walking around. It was delicious. GLuten free option for the crepes. Tiny place with only outdoor seating for about 10. I would go back!
