Awesome place with great food and the best fresh apple cider I’ve ever had. I’m not gluten intolerant but visited with someone who has celiac and everything we had was great. Breakfast sandwiches, oatmeal cream pie. All delicious even if you don’t need to avoid gluten.
We were on a short trip through the area and stopped in due to the great Gluten Free reviews. What a gem! The bakery goods were amazing! Very fresh and tasty! Highly recommend anything with their cream cheese frosting. Although their maple pecan pastry is a must have!!! These are some of the best I’ve tasted, including in the Chicago …
My family and I had the pleasure of visiting a lovely shop with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff were exceptionally friendly, the baked goods were delicious, and the outdoor seating area, equipped with musical instruments for kids, was a wonderful touch. I would not hesitate to give them 10 stars if possible.
