Crema's Take

If you're gluten-free or just tired of mediocre pastries, Locals is worth the trip for a kitchen that takes dietary restrictions seriously without sacrificing flavor—their lemon waffle and creative seasonal drinks have earned genuine devotion from regulars. The atmosphere is genuinely cozy and the staff knows what they're doing, though you should expect to pay premium prices for everything from sandwiches to French toast. It's the kind of place that feels like a discovery rather than just another coffee shop, especially if you've been burned by cafes that treat gluten-free as an afterthought.

What to expect

Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. Slow-sit spot. Pastries and light food on the menu.

The food was divine! I couldn't tell it was gluten or dairy free at all. The sandwich was small but delicious and the lemon waffle was LITERALLY the best waffle I've ever had. And I don't normally eat gluten free! It was insanely fluffy. There was a bit of a wait, but it was…
