Best gluten free pizza I’ve had since going gluten free. Wish it was a little more affordable, but understand the cost due to the high quality of the imported flour. Definitely recommend!
A great spot to enjoy tasty meals with family, vibrant energy, and solid service, perfect for a casual outing with friends.

My partner and I had dinner here tonight. He got a burger which he said was very good. We shared a crab dip which was delicious. I am gluten free (allergy) so I was thrilled to see so many options. Unfortunately, I did indeed have a reaction to the gluten free pizza. My partner had tried their pizza here before at an earlier date and he did mention he enjoyed the piece of my gluten free crust very much, in his opinion he liked it better than the normal crust. I’m not sure if somewhere along the way my food somehow encountered gluten contamination. It’s understandable but disappointing. Thankfully I take enzymes for when I eat out which do reduce any reaction I may have if exposed. But aside from that the bacon fig pizza was very tasty. The atmosphere was great. And our server Keller, was friendly, and attentive. Another worker did say bye to us on our way out, which we appreciated. Great place, my advice is to people with celiac to just be careful and bring your antispasmodics/enzymes, just in case.
This cozy spot is a must-visit for fresh, delicious meals and a great atmosphere; it's perfect for those with dietary preferences seeking variety.

In the theater district of Frederick. Good food, service, cozy atmosphere. Good place for those with gluten free or vegan diets but also good for those without dietary restrictions. Yum!
This spot is a cozy vegan gem with fresh dishes, local art, and enticing desserts that makes wait times totally worth it!

Amazing vegan find in Frederick! My family got the taco salad, kale caesar, açai bowl and cauliflower bites and everything was so fresh and came in big portions. They had a lot of gluten free deserts and options. The place was also very cute with lots of local art!
With a vibrant patio vibe and delicious drinks, this spot ensures you have an unforgettable experience every time you visit.

This is not a great place for people with food allergies. I’ve had several issues in this regard.
My wife has a tree nut allergy. She had an almost immediate allergic reaction after eating…tater tots. At first we were very confused, but after checking the menu closely, we saw that a different dish contained fried nuts. Apparently they have one shared fryer that they use for anything for fried. My wife was sick the rest of the night.
I on the other hand have a gluten intolerance. They mark items on the menu that are gluten free…but 90% of those items are also fried in the shared fryer. So, they’re not actually gluten free.
The wait staff has always been great the few times I’ve been here, but they really need to address how they handle dietary restrictions better.
