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!!!

Hands down, the best gluten-free cake in the city—and quite possibly the best cake I’ve ever had, period. My first bite of the beautifying fudge brownie cake made me want to dance, and by the second, I actually did. The rich, decadent chocolate is everything you dream of in a chocolate cake. But what truly made my taste buds sing was the surprising and delightful addition of dried fruit and herbs that complement the chocolate masterfully. I tried a slice warm, and let me tell you—ooey, gooey perfection. One slice is so filling and the texture is so indulgent and satisfying. This isn’t just a cake; it’s art, it’s therapy, it’s magic. If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re missing out. An absolute must-have for any chocolate lover, gluten-free or not!

Unbelievable gluten free pizza. The most flavorful margherita I’ve ever had. One of the pies I ordered was incorrect but they swiftly resolved the problem and delivered a new pie. I love this place!

Nice little spot for well presented ice cream with fun toppings. Very allergen friendly including having a good number of gluten free options (entire shop is vegan). Bit pricey like many things in NYC but, has outdoor seating with great people watching so serves as a nice place to take a break and have a snack.

Horrible service. Waiter was hostile for no apparent reason when explaining they don’t have a gluten free menu. Not sure why but I think it’s because most restaurants are generally accommodating allergies. Honestly bizarre service and I think the staff is frustrated that they have to turn away people so often. That’s not really ideal menu planning at all.

Very cute place with fresh food. Lots of gluten free and vegetarian options. I have celiacs and they put the pita separately for my sister so she could still enjoy. We shared fattouch salad croutons on the side and added chicken, it was excellent. Red pepper dip was our favorite. Hummus was so so. Quick and friendly service.
