Local Gluten-Free Bakery Flakely to Open Walk-In Storefront in Bryn Mawr
Flakely Gluten Free, a beloved bakery known for its convenient "pastry ATMs" that dispense freshly baked goods 24/7, is making the move from Manayunk to Bryn Mawr. The popular bakery, founded by Lila Colello after her diagnosis with celiac disease in 2011, is trading in its small production kitchen for a spacious storefront at 1007 Lancaster Ave.
The change marks the end of Flakely's four-year run on Krams Street, where Colello has been perfecting her gluten-free recipes and selling them from a takeout window with limited hours. To accommodate growing demand, the bakery will be opening its fourth pastry ATM in Roxborough, but the one in Fishtown is relocating to Reap Wellness.
Flakely's new Bryn Mawr location promises to serve up an array of freshly baked pastries, bagels, and French-style breads, all crafted with love by Colello herself. The bakery plans to host classes, pop-up dinners, and gluten-free baking collaborations to bring the community together.
The concept behind Flakely's pastry ATMs has been a game-changer for those with dietary restrictions. By utilizing smart freezers that dispense goods 24/7, customers can easily grab what they need on the go. The ATMs also provide a convenient solution for restaurants and businesses looking to offer gluten-free options.
But Colello's commitment to the gluten-free community goes beyond just selling baked goods. As an advocate for those living with celiac disease, she has become a vocal leader in the industry, pushing for greater representation and quality in gluten-free products. Her passion project has taken her national, with Flakely shipping bake-to-order goods across the country.
The new Bryn Mawr location will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays, offering customers a chance to experience Colello's renowned baked goods in person.

. I mean, sure, they're convenient and all that jazz, but it just feels like Flakely is relying too much on gimmicks to make up for their lack of a real bakery experience. Have you seen the lines at those things? It's always packed! And don't even get me started on how weird it is to see people grabbing pastries from machines like they're vending machines

colello is literally a hero for the gluten-free community and i love that she's not just stopping at selling products, but also hosting classes and pop-up dinners to bring people together! 
can't wait to check out their new location and try all the delicious baked goods for myself 
anyone else been to flakely before?
). It's amazing how Lila Colello has turned her passion into a game-changer for people with dietary restrictions. And can we talk about how cool it is that she's using smart freezers to make gluten-free goods available 24/7? It's like, totally convenient and awesome! 
... like people are gonna magically find gluten-free options now? Flakely's always been all about catering to those with dietary restrictions, but I'm sure they'll just become a marketing gimmick for people who didn't used to care about gluten-free stuff. And what's up with these pastry ATMs? Just another way for bakeries to nickel-and-dime customers overpriced treats that are barely worth the money...

. It's amazing to see Lila Colello's passion project take off and spread the word about living with celiac disease 
. Now we'll have even more options to enjoy fresh, delicious baked goods without having to worry about where to find them 
. It's about time we get more convenient options for people with dietary restrictions, you know?! And I love how Flakely is all about community too - hosting classes and pop-up dinners? That sounds like so much fun!!! Colello's passion project has come such a long way since she was diagnosed with celiac disease back in 2011. She's literally made a difference in the lives of so many people, and I'm honored to see her continue to spread love and gluten-free goodness wherever she goes 
, just read that Flakely Gluten Free is expanding again and now they're gonna be all over Bryn Mawr... like we didn't have enough gluten-free options already 
. I mean, I know Colello is trying to help and all, but she needs to stop profiteering from her own health issues 
. And what's with the classes and pop-up dinners? Like we need more opportunities for hipsters to get all gluten-free and Instagrammable 
I am literally SOOOO hyped about Flakely Gluten Free opening up that new storefront in Bryn Mawr!!! 
Like seriously though, Flakely's pastry ATMs are genius!!! Who needs a grocery store when u can just walk into a magical ATM that dispenses freshly baked goods 24/7?!?! 
I mean, who doesn't need more gluten-free options, right? Flakely's pastry ATMs are genius tho, like literally just grab what you want and go - no need to waste time on a actual line 
lila colellos dedication to the community is inspiring she's not just making delicious treats for those with dietary restrictions, she's also fighting for a better representation of people living with celiac disease in the industry 
can't wait to try out their new brynmawr location and class/workshops 
But on the other hand, Lila Colello is literally doing so much good for people with celiac disease and I love how Flakely's pastry ATMs are changing the game!
