Been meaning to go try Leven ever since I know about their opening.
There's plenty parking all around, super easy.
You walk in on the left side is the coffee bar, so you don't have to wait thru the main ordering line to get your coffee. But if you want a pastry to go with that coffee, you would need to go thru the main line. And you can see they have alot of cookies for an afternoon treat.
Pound cake galore!
They are known for their pastries all gluten free certified.
I got a slice of their apple pie. While totally understand that the pie crust won't be the buttery one that I know and love, but also didn't realized that the filling would be so tamed in taste. Usually with granola on top, it enhance the flavor palette as whole, but this one was plain and not up to flavor at all.
Overall, while the space is nice and they do look like they have really good pastries, the apple pie was a no for me. Compare to Awesome Bites, I feel like it lacks creativity to create good-tasting, gluten-free products for all to enjoy. I know Leven also serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and offering GF alternatives, hopefully those are better.
