Stephie was amazing! She created custom last minute allergen free cupcakes and cookies for us that were both delicious and beautiful! It's super tough to find bakeries that deal with allergies and make a tasty item. I can't recommend them enough! Fantastic communication, turn around time, pricing, and super easy to find. We will absolutely recommend and use again!

So this is now called sweet GGs and they do not have anything gluten free. Also the address is something different on the Instagram so after a good chase ended up empty handed. There was a lot of vegan stuff and the folks were friendly. Just disappointed after driving all around to not get anything.

This place is impossible to find. We drove around for 20 minutes. The address is wrong on google maps and this place can’t be found.

If I could give more stars I would! WOW. Mrs. Stephanie is fantastic- We have a friend visiting from out of town who is GF/V/DF and the Local Buzz has been the highlight of her stay... she's even debating moving across the country because of this place!! So many options for everyone, so inviting and inclusive! This is one you don't want to miss out on!

I’m visiting from Maine and as a vegan I’ve had a really hard time finding a place that’ll actually serve you fresh vegetables (and not just ultra processed meat and pastry alternatives.) This is the first place I’ve found something to eat that felt good in my body this whole trip. Ultra welcoming atmosphere and the owner was lovely to chat with!

Best, most fresh gluten free pastry I’ve ever had. The owner is so friendly and helpful. TONS of options for all dietary restrictions, it was so hard to choose!!

If I could give 10 stars I would!! I ordered 2 dozen vegan chocolate chip cookies, 2 dozen vegan snickerdoodle cookies, and 1 dozen vegan gluten free chocolate chip cookies. The baker was the kindest woman who is clearly passionate about catering to people with dietary restrictions without compromising on flavor. Free of charge, she threw in some vegan sugar cookies and vegan gluten free sugar cookies. We had the most wonderful conversation and I could not be happier I ordered from her! The cookies were quickly devoured by everyone and had I not stated they were vegan, no one would have known! So so so delicious! Don't hesitate!

Such a sweet place to grab a cup of coffee downtown! Stephanie is the best and she will take great care of you! Not mention the coffee and baked goods are amazing! So many options for gluten free, dairy free, and keto friendly! It's a must stop location in 5 points!

I wish I lived down the street. I was driving through Columbia and looking for form free options around 10am on a Friday. This is the place to go.!! I almost cried eating the Streusal pumpkin... so most!!! I tried to savor the lemon blueberry but it was too good. I want more but I'm back at home in Atlanta.
Good bagel and cream cheese, black coffee. Fast friendly service. Convenient parking. Decor reminiscent of Denver coffee places.

The cafe is so welcoming and the owner is incredibly accommodating. We enjoyed our gf bagels with vegan cream cheese!

This has become my new favorite spot in Columbia. The atmosphere is so neat and the people who work there are so kind and helpful. Every time I'm in there there staff are having intentional conversations either with each other or with the customers. The food is slightly pricey but in my opinion it is worth it--hands down one of the best cafés in Columbia.

Best cafe in the carolinas. Everything here is amazing. The owner is very talented. I highly recommend this place. If you have dietary restrictions, this is your place. The owner can make any dish taste amazing, even without gluten/dairy/etc. I can't say enough good things. Check this place out!Yumm
