Love having a safe zone to eat!It's always fascinating to me to be able to eat anything on the menu and not have to verify that it's safe with the staff (and hope they know what gluten means!)We came in on a Saturday morning for brunch - we sat in the cozy restaurant and looked over the menu.The menu is on the smaller side, was hoping for a waffle or pancakes, but instead had country breakfast, avocado toast, bruschetta and a few other options. They were out of the avocado toast so we ended up with 2 country breakfasts and one bruschetta plus a flat white.Country breakfast was tasty - served with a biscuit, but no butter or jam was offered.The Bruschetta was super tasty and the potatoes were amazing (way too much red bell pepper for me but that is because that is one veggie I can not stand!)The service was great, the staff were all so friendly and space was cozy and so cute.I did grab some treats on the way out - 'beignets" - they were more like a solid donut to me, but so so yummy! I even shared with my kids - not sure they appreciated it but they said they were really good!The cinnamon roll was really tasty, the cinnamon coffee cake muffin was ginormous and i split between 2 breakfasts with coffee - heated up a little and were devineWill be back for brunch and mimosas next!!

Place has some amazing items that are completely gluten free: Bagels Coffee cake Focaccia White bread So so probably wouldn't order: Pizza roll The staff probably need a bit more training, need help with like how to wrap the bread up and package pastries. Otherwise this place is amazing!

Tara is amazing and what a bakery it is!! I love all of the gluten free treats. They have focaccia, brioche and lots of yummy pastries! They make brioche donuts. It's set back from the street on Santa Cruz Ave. It's so cute in here on Mother's Day.

Focaccia bread and flourless chocolate muffin/cake were to DIE FOR. I'm having a friend who lives super close get some for me since I live in SF. Highly recommend! I have no photos cause I ate it all.

Wow!! The best gluten free bread I have ever had. The focaccia was so delicious and I used it to make eggs Benedict after. The staff was very kind and helped me pick out what to get. The oat cran cookie was also sooo good! I still have one pastry in my fridge that I'm saving. We also got an americano and latte which was delicious! The interior was quaint but they did tell me they're combining with Polenteria in October, so the ambiance will change.

Such a cute bakery to stop by for a coffee or pastry! The worker there kindly told us that everything is gluten, soy, and nut free except for 2 things (except the berry blondie and peanut cookie/cake, which both have nuts). They also have some dairy free and vegan options. Despite these recipe alterations, the pastries did not disappoint. I tried the berry blondie and it was a perfect balance of sweet and tart. The brownie was nice and moist, and the berries balanced the sweetness. Definitely would wanna come back!

Came in before 10AM on a Saturday and there wasn't many treats left! This place opens at 9. I got the chocolate glazed "donut" and it's just a brioche bun, not in donut shape.Didn't like their latte, it was overly bitter and a bit too much foam for a latte. Maybe the barista mixed up the other customer's order, who got a cappochino.

Hopefully this is updating my 10/12 reviiew. Oy! has solved their baked goods issue for the most part, with most unwrapped goods now behind plexiglass and I am once again buying goodies for my family member who has a flour intolerance My go-tos are peanut butter cookies and snickerdoodles. The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is because there is some inconsistency from baker to baker/batch to batch, although the family always seems to enjoy them (though I buy them for the one person who can't have flour, everyone in the family eats and enjoys them). lol I won't park my shiny new car in their crowded lot, but on a nice day it is pleasant to stroll through Los Gatos to get there

The sourdough teff bread is excellent but very expensive ($15)! Sometimes, you have to call ahead an reserve your bread because the bakery runs out. The location has moved and is now inside of the Polentaria restaurant that has no sign! I don't know why there is no sign for the restaurant. I had walked past it for years and had no idea it existed. You enter from the parking lot, near the backdoor of Pizza My Heart.
