The L.A. Cafe
Celiac Safety Score
Walking into The L.A. Cafe (Erin McKenna's Bakery LA) is like stepping into a celiac's version of dessert heaven—every bite, from the fluffy cinnamon rolls to the jewel-toned donuts, is 100% gluten-free and made in a dedicated facility. You know what? The sheer relief of choosing anything from the case without playing 20 Questions with staff is almost as sweet as the treats themselves. While taste preferences vary (some folks say the sweets run a bit dense or sugary), you can't argue with the peace of mind that comes from their clear allergen protocols and commitment to being totally wheat-free, dairy-free, and vegan. For anyone who's tired of compromise or cross-contact anxiety, this spot is a rare, joyful safe zone.
