Just BE Kitchen
Gluten-free, grain-free counter food that doesn't taste like a compromise
A counter-service kitchen at the bottom of 15th Street where the entire menu is gluten-free, grain-free and refined-sugar-free, which means the person in your group with the dietary restriction orders first for once. Bowls, sandwiches on grain-free bread, breakfast well into the day, coffee. There is a second location in Boulder at 2500 30th Street. You order at the register, sit at a two-top, and are back outside in forty minutes, which makes it a sane stop before or after a walk on the Platte.
Why go. Everyone at the table can order off one menu without a negotiation.
It is counter service - order at the register first, then find a table.
