The BREAD is SO GOOD!! I specifically stop here to get bread when I am in Ames! The atmosphere is very inviting & would be a great place to gather with friends for breakfast!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Audra Kramer · Dec 2024

We stopped here because the restaurant had gluten free bread options for sandwiches. This place is a hidden gem. They bake almost everything from bread to sweets to dog treats in house. The menu is full of fresh sandwiches, egg breakfasts and soups. The staff are kind and the food was delicious. The tables provide a great location to eat and even get some work done. It seemed like many of the customers were regulars and the staff knew them by name, everyone was very kind.

Great selection of baked and canned goods. We got an assortment of lunch and treats. The grilled cheese is an absolute must for anyone! Also, don't leave without a cinnamon roll. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Can't wait to try more off their menu.

Went for lunch and they gave us a bunch of samples! My boyfriend couldn’t decide what bread to have for his sandwich so they got him pieces to try and I mentioned a type of bread I was curious about and they gave me a free piece to try! Excellent service and the sandwiches were good 👍

My boyfriend and I are gluten free, and we were looking for somewhere to grab breakfast. I found positive reviews for their gluten-free bread, and they DID NOT disappoint! We ordered 2 of the loaded bacon sandwiches, the bread was toasted to perfection, the bacon was nice and crispy, and they did not go little on the avocado! All flavors melted together beautifully, so much so we didn't have the chance to snap a photo before the sandwiches were gone🤣 Not to mention the pricing, it is very accommodating to those of us with dietary restrictions. You dont have to lose an arm and a leg here! 10/10 will be coming in regularly, and I can't wait to try all the other gluten-free goodies we got as well.
