I cannot stress the level of intimidation (not to mention frustration) I have felt at numerous eateries where the servers display a negative attitude as a result of their ignorance concerning Celiac. As some of them give outward indication of their impatience with my condition, I am left with anxiety and apprehension concerning my order: did they “get it” right? Was the information they gave me about the preparation of the food correct?? And what about the kitchen help? Will they do everything they need to do to ensure there are no traces of gluten in meal or on my plate??

At the Bare Naked Bakery and Café each and every one of these concerns become virtually non-existent. The moment I began to interact with the counter server I was made to feel, in a simple word, at home. I was clearly communicating with a person who knew exactly where I was coming from hence, I had every confidence that I was in for a very pleasant, comfortable eating experience. Her patience in answering any question I had was also shared by the food preparer. In short, I felt like I was with caring friends as opposed to a server who was simply doing his or her job and wanted to get me “out of the way”.

The particular dish which is a favorite of mine is the American Panini. I have also had good helpings of their bagels and bread. In terms of desserts, I’ve happily stuffed myself with their rainbow cookies, muffins and red velvet cake.

Don’t however, be-even for a moment-be fooled by my limited menu tastes. BNB & C offers quite a wide selection of dishes from a variety of mouth watering salads, to an array of appetizing paninis, pizzas and soups. My parents, both of whom have no celiac worries, marveled at the choice selection to the point where they had quite a hard time deciding what to choose upon our first visit. Best of all, both emphatically indicated that-had they not known any better-they wouldn’t have even realized they were eating food which was prepared gluten free.

As one who suffers from Celiac, it’s one thing for me to highly recommend The Bare Naked Bakery and Café. For raving reviews to come from individuals who are not gluten free is testament which goes above and beyond. We wish it continued success and look forward to our next visit. Thank you BNB & C for making “eating out” a most comfortable, tasty and satisfying eating experience.
