Knead Love Bakery

I have tried SO many gluten free breads in NYC that I’ve lost count, and the search is finally over. Not just the best I’ve tried here, but rivals the best I’ve tasted anywhere. Fantastic texture and flavor (it’s actual bread, vs. a crumbly flavorless bread substitute). Everyone in my family enjoys, both gluten free and gluten lovers alike. The “Nutty” is a favorite.

Best gluten free, refined sugar free, dairy free bakery in the world!!!!!! I get their GF sourdough bread every week and freeze it so it keeps for months. Sarah, the owner, is attentive and super sweet. She cares so much about her food and what goes into it.

Super yummy! First time trying and I’m going to come back weekly now. Got the brownie and blueberry lemon muffin. Amazing quality ingredients and great taste

I’ve been coming here regularly for at least 3–4 months, and yesterday I ordered my usual blueberry muffin—only to find egg shells in it. When I brought this to the attention of the staff at Knead Love, they initially denied that the muffins contained eggs and asked me for photos. I was genuinely surprised by their response, especially given how often I come here. Thankfully, another staff member eventually stepped in, confirmed that the muffins do contain eggs, and offered to swap it out for another item. Still, I was disappointed by the initial reaction and lack of basic courtesy. As someone who supports this small business every week, I expected better customer service.

Knead Love Bakery is at the Union Square Greenmarket on Wednesday, and bakes and sells gluten-free, natural sourdough breads and treats with whole grains. locally sourced with no additives or preservatives, with very high quality and nutritious and flavorful ingredients. If you like chocolate, I'd recommend the chocolate brownie which is mostly made with almond butter and dark chocolate from local craft chocolate makers such as Brooklyn based Raaka without the common soy lecithin, and with local maple syrup rather than added refined sugar. Many baked goods feature whole grain gluten-free buckwheat flour as well as oat flour which are very healthy. Some of the baked goods feature local fruits and berries. The bagels are all sourdough and dense with whole grains and seeds.

Knead love is a gluten-free godsend. I love getting their brownies, cinnamon raisin bread and everything bagels. Today I added some Rebel banana peanut chip ice cream after warming up the brownie on 275 for a few minutes.

Incredible in all ways - quality, flavor, freshness, toastability (making up a word), communication, tracking. Arrived Wednesday (to West Coast), shipped the day before. Will definitely order again.

Horrible granola. They don’t divulge any nutrition facts (which I guess they are not required to do). If your BP is high, forget the terrible tasting granola. So salty. I had no idea because nobody would answer my questions at the market about ingredients. Waste of $15. It’s going in the trash. Bad business practices.
