The Sansglu take

The place

Verveine is a compact Cambridge cafe and bakery from chef Monica Glass and restaurateur Ken Oringer. The counter combines rotating pastries with breakfast, sandwiches, soups, salads, coffee, and a small beer, wine, and cider list.

The gluten-free setup

Chef-owner Monica Glass lives with celiac disease and the official site centers her gluten-free flour and baking work. The pages Sansglu reviewed do not publish a dedicated-facility, certification, fryer, or staff-training statement, so we are not treating those protocols as confirmed.

What to order

Chef Monica Glass's Cambridge cafe pairs gluten-free bread and pastry work with an all-day savory menu.

The move

Seating is first come, first served, and the pastry selection changes throughout the day. Check the live Toast inventory before leaving if a specific pastry or loaf is the reason for your visit.
