They have GF cupcakes. They are good! They store them separately and top them with separate saccapoche to avoid cross-contamination. I am celiac and this is a wonderful place to enjoy something sweet!

Kindred is a casual café with delicious breakfast, brunch or lunch 100% gluten free. As celiac, it is rare to have the possibility to choose anything from the menu without cross-contamination. This is the only place in Iowa city with a 100% GF kitchen. Additionally, I loved the vibe of the place: young and casual.

Let me start by saying the pizza is absolutely delicious. We got the Cubano and the white pizza, both in gluten free. Both were fantastic. However, there was definitely either cross contamination or something containing gluten that I was unaware of. I started reacting within half an hour and it's gotten progressively worse as the night goes on. If gluten isn't an issue for you, I definitely recommend. Again, it was delicious. If you have any type of gluten sensitivity or celiac especially, I suggest you don't take the risk.
