The best brunch for gluten free

Shannon Rodgers

Great options but took sooooo long for them to make it despite us being the only people in the restaurant.

Jason S.

Great food, friendly service, and 100% gluten free. We need more places like this!

Amethyst Smith

They were stellar from the moment we walked in. They had my mind at ease immediately assuring me they don’t even bring gluten into the building. The food was amazing it felt like a 5 star dining experience. The whole menu being gluten free and without worries of cross contamination it was a fantastic experience with food and service. I will be returning for all of my events worth celebrating. Not to mention a full side menu of mocktails 😊

Delfi Bourse Martinez

Amazing restaurant with a different menu for gluten free, they are super careful with any type of allergies. the food is delicious I 100% recommend it

Melissa Johnson

As someone with a gluten allergy I am grateful to have a food stop where I don’t have to worry about anything on the menu. Been multiple times and everything is fresh and consistently good.

Michael McCartney

This is the only safe place to eat if you have any sort of allergy or intolerance to gluten. There is never any cross-contamination and the food is always absolutely delicious. The brownies and cinnamon roll cake are my favorite but you can't forget the paninis. Ms Donna is kind and will take care of you no matter what

Katelyn Neumann

I appreciate having a bakery in this area that makes gluten-free foods. However, most of the items I've ordered have been disappointing and not worth the high cost. The biscuits are too dense, dry, and salty. The everything bagels are tough and salty. I wouldn't order either again. The cupcakes are okay. I do love the chocolate croissant, though. Get it heated. It is sweet, chocolately, and delightful. I will order it again. Please note this is not somewhere you can sit and eat. There is room for about 2-3 customers to enter, order, and exit.

Strange Hood

Great authentic Korean food. And it’s gluten free🤍. The place is super clean and there’s great customer service. Will definitely visit this place again. Thank you Rossy and team.

Mac Cafurello

Talk about a wonderful place. Originally my first time going to this store was 2 pick up cupcakes that were both gluten and dairy free. I was then told to go in the mornings to see what treats that had out. I have gone twice now and will most certainly be returning. Not only is the treats super delicious (my favorite being the Cinnaminis), but the staff is super friendly and kind. They don’t hesitate to answer your questions and can tell they are putting fourth there best effort into their work. Highly recommend, i’ll be back!

Steven Wacker

Ynot pizza has our go-to place for years. They take great care in preparing Gluten Free food. We feel safe with their food handling practices.

Jon Jon Engel

This place is an absolute gem! The shop is not only beautiful and charming, but it also has such a welcoming, joyful vibe. The dairy free and gluten free ice cream is delicious, the atmosphere is full of fun, and the staff couldn’t be friendlier. Everyone always leaves with a smile. Highly recommend for families or anyone just looking for a happy, sweet experience!

Tara Ward

I'm in love with this place! As a Celiac, it's SO nice to find excellent food that caters strictly for us and that it's nearby.

A Lawson

Had an amazing experience last night for our anniversary! I’m newly gluten sensitive and there was so much on this menu I could enjoy and everything was delicious! Waitress was kind and helpful! Drinks were delicious and I will forever be dreaming about the chicken tirokroketes!

Sara Kelly

My gluten free family was so happy to find a new gluten free bakery in our travels. Delicious treats (especially the pepperoni rolls) and great prices. We have found our new spot to visit every time we are in the area. 😋 Hopefully next time we can dine in and enjoy the awesome ambience of the restaurant.

We have been to the bakery twice now and bought the bakery items from Good Foods Grocery and Elwood and Thompson. We have had the take and bake cinnamon rolls, brownies, cupcakes, and more! Today we tried the strawberry shortcake and it was really good! The cupcakes are my daughter’s favorite. I have a soy allergy and gluten intolerance. My daughter has peanut, most tree nuts , and egg allergies. It’s so nice to be able to walk in and be able to let her have a choice. Thank you!

Sarah Steel

I took home 2 loaves of bread ( I used for sandwiches), 4 biscuits, 3 slices of Bundt cake and 2 cinnamon buns 2-1/2 weeks ago and can't get there fast enough to replenish. Every item was like eating wheat bread--this is a gluten free bakery. Few and far between to find. Please buy here, don't let her close down!

Kendal Davis

It is hard to put into words how much I love and respect this place. Everything I've had from here is amazing. The first time I popped in was over a year ago- I legit was almost in tears eating a cinnamon roll. And The chicken pie :,) to die for. Even iced coffee is somehow taken to another level- and it was VEGAN! I would have never guessed any of the items I had here were gluten free OR dairy free if I had not known its a dedicated Gluten Free, Dairy Free, & Wheat free kitchen. This place deserves more recognition. I even am able to try new things that I hadn't had even in my years before I was unable to eat gluten- like today I had a sample of minced fruit pie! its like your regular fruit pie on steroids- way more flavor. I love it!!! (Obviously I bought one lol) and also tried the Veggie pizza and Pepperoni pizzas today and they blew my socks off. Ambiance is great- calm french music, place smells amazing when you walk in. Greeted by friendly and knowledgable staff. Keep doin yo thang, guys! Thank you!!!

Loved the food here! We ordered the Green Goddess toast and a smoothie bowl, and both tasted great. I’m gluten-sensitive, so it was refreshing to have so many options to chose from. I highly recommend!

Jared D

Amazing gluten free waffles. And some GOOOOOOD Pumpkin Spice lattes, too!

Chelle Lynn

We love Capitol Ale House! Kylie was fabulous. The club is my absolute favorite but I've tried many menu items with no complaints. I had to take off a star because of my recent visit. I have a gluten allergy friend who loves Capitol Ale because of the gluten free options. She ALWAYS looks forward to the fries. They had a dedicated air fryer. This was a huge bonus for anyone with a gluten allergy. This has changed sometime recently and unfortunately is longer an option. Bring back the gluten free fry option.

Carrie K

Run do NOT walk to Anna B’s for the oatmeal cream pie! It has become my favorite sweet treat. Do not let the gluten free part of this bakery fool you if you aren’t gluten free. You would never know the difference. The bakery is perfectly decorated and is so cozy. Always clean and fresh. A true hidden gem that needs everyone to know it exists!

Landon Fowler

My wife and I wanted a cheesesteak and had heard good things about La Villa. She got the chicken and I got the steak. Both were delicious, but I was especially pleased with the steak one because it was gluten free. I have had a lot of gluten free bread that is mostly terrible, but this was fantastic. I checked it a couple of times to make sure it wasn't regular bread. Altogether the food was great and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a chance to talk to the owner and it's clear he's gone out of his way to source quality ingredients, including gluten free ones. Would definitely recommend.

Cynthia Birch

Awesome food, wonderful service, gluten free great menu, clean and the price is very affordable!

Zenia deHaven

This is my go-to Italian place. Their service is excellent, the food is always delicious, and it's easy to park in the garage and walk on over. They're very accommodating towards allergies and dietary restrictions. I have a gluten intolerance and sesame allergy, and they're always very conscious of that and offer substitutes for items on their menu. Their mussels with gluten free bread is probably my favorite dish and my boyfriend loves their chicken parm. It's a great place for couples, families, and friends to gather and feast!

Meredith Porter

Truly great celiac protocols at this location! I told the staff I needed gluten free for an allergy and unlike many JM locations, I didn’t really have to say another word. They were super kind and gracious about needing to grab stuff from the back. They really went above and beyond. Thanks for helping me stay safe and healthy on my road trip!

Kerry-Ann Parsons

I'm gluten, dairy and soy free. I'm on a quest to find safe places to eat when I'm out and about. If I was just gluten free(not celiac), I'd probably put this place in the rotation, but with all three, I wasn't thrilled with it. I had a bacon hamburger with fries. Their website is pretty easy to navigate and it shows all the food allergens, from what I saw, most items had soy. Their website warns of the risk of cross contamination. I thought I was getting the GF bun with my burger, but it came naked. The fries were delicious, fresh, hot and tasty. The burger didn't have much flavor, the bacon was tasty and crisp. I think their might have been soy in something I ate based on how my body reacted. Shout out to the bartender, she made the visit worth it!

Dylan Paul

It was tasty! It was safe for Celiac's and the staff treated you like real family. I would highly recommend it.

Gin Quan

Wonderful little gluten free bakery with a wide selection of vegan options! Great place to grab a quick treat. Their pop tarts and dinner rolls are incredible 🤤

Alixandra Tate

GO HERE! This is the best ice cream place ever and for it to be gluten free and dairy free and no artificial dyes makes it even better. You would never even know their treats are df/gf and the staff working are always so sweet! This is an absolute gem to have in NOVA.

Lamia Hudson

I am so happy to have found a local cafe! It is family-owned, absolutely adorable inside, and a great place for families and the community. The drinks are excellent and I’ve enjoyed the food I’ve tried off the menu. There is also a great selection of gluten free items that they keep in a separate display case. They have a really cute kids section that my son loves playing in. I highly recommend to anyone who wants a great quality drink, a nice atmosphere, and great customer service. I’ve become a regular since discovering this gem.

Angelina Bingei

the BEST gluten free sourdough I’ve ever had. I nearly cried when I tried it fresh for the first time :’) love that there’s an option to order online!! this is such an underrated spot

Anne DeSimone

Tasty food in a lovely space. The service was very fast and attentive. There are many gluten free options(be sure to let your server know you want the GFO) All our food was delicious and the serving size was generous. It’s pricier than your everyday take out, but this restaurant has wonderful quality. Can’t wait to return to Peter Chang’s!

Cathy Kreger

On Mothers Day while visiting Warsaw VA for a family reunion we happened upon the only open before 9am Gluten Free/Dairy Free Gem of Breakfast Boutique! A must stop for everyone driving thru, on Main Street, you don’t want to miss! We were welcomed in with open arms and sweet people who served us wonderful savory scones and coffee. Unique Gifts and Art adorn the Restaurant along-side delicious Coffees and Teas. But our food was the STAR!

Rachel Richter

Delicious smoothie bowls with awesome protein options. Definitely going here again. Also so many gluten free options (the entire store might be naturally gluten free). Very creative menu and create-your-own options too. The cold brew bowl was great and I got the cocoa added in plus chocolate maca protein powder 2x (that's 25 grams of plant-based protein)! I added in cacao nibs too. Lovely breakfast and atmosphere!

J Weilbach

Always fire! Also love they have gluten free alternatives and buns. 🫶

JohnaO

Super tasty pho nam and pho ga! Nicely al denote noodles, nice quality meat, flavorful broth. The menu says gluten-free but the waitress wasn’t able to confirm whether the unmarked hoisin sauce was gluten-free (the red pepper sauce as marked gluten-free). Restaurant was on par with other pho shops re cleanliness and decor.

Tiffany Woods

100% dairy free and gluten free soups

Samantha Heare

Good food. Decent American variety. I've been here twice, and the service has been good. They try to work with gluten sensitive people, but both times, my family member either had to err on the side of caution due to the server being unsure of the cooking process or the meal came out contaminated and had to be recooked. They obliged, but my family member had to be super vigilant because the restaurant was not. Other than this hiccup, the experience was pleasant.

Laura Ferguson

Easy, delicious, reliable fast service Mexican food with gluten free and vegan options.

Connie Cy

Smells so good! Amazing food! Had a chicken dish, a lamb dish, and a seafood dish. Gluten free

Anita Swiman

I have to be gluten free and the Irish Nachos with house made potato chips were amazing! Also really great service especially since it was Christmas Eve.

Tom Cagle

Good food, reasonable prices, family friendly sports bar and restaurant. We especially like that they have gluten free options for a family member with celiac.

Keith Manuel

Very good gluten free menu; good lunch specials as well; wait staff are personable and the owners frequently help out during busy times. Restaurant is conveniently located just off 221 with lots of parking.

David Gross

Nice rooftop bar and a good gluten-free menu with pizza, pasta, and salads.

Laurel Herman

A friend got me one of these gluten-free cakes , I think it was raspberry , for my 70th birthday. This was the most delicious cake I think I’ve ever eaten in my life ! unforgettable.!

Virginia (Stella Luna)

Great gluten free options, extra toppings don't cost extra!

autumn Costello

Hard time communication with this particular location. As someone who specifys dietary needs like gluten allergy when ordering and receive breaded items there isn't much positive feedback I can give Waitress could not explain nor management only said fish was not breaded when clearly it was breaded then could not properly communicate with me in English other than to argue that my order was indeed gluten free when the fish had been breaded. I'm sure this place is fine if you're not celaic Otherwise I'd choose a more understanding establishment.
