Chris Kucker

Excellent food and service. Outstanding gluten free menu and desserts.

Valeriani

Great vibe great food. The bagels are the best gluten free that I’ve had since my celiac diagnosis ten years ago!

Paulina Vitello

The best gluten free popovers. Always stop by when we're in the area and get a whole box to-go.

Lisa Stavaridis

Simply amazing! One of my favorite regular spots. The staff is kind and helpful. The falafel wrap is incredible. Love the hangover bowl as well. Every item in bakery is incredible. Best part i can order anything. I'm gluten and dairy free because of stomach issues. Highly recommend

Alethea Wait

The food was quite good with a fairly simple menu. Excellent gluten-free menu. The gf pancakes were generously sized and fluffy. The burrito was more like a panini-wrap, but tasted okay. The whole wheat pancakes were good. The kids meals were -very- small. Many coffee options with okay coffee. Huge assortment of baked goods. Two downsides: the meal was very expensive for what it was (like $100 for two adults and two kids) and the entire place has an almost aggressively Christian vibe (Bible verses everywhere, faith-based coloring pages, and C-rock playing loudly), so sit outside if that’s not your thing.

The warm GF popovers with maple butter 😍

Jason Marcolongo

All about the desserts, I didn't eat there regular items on the menu. I went for gluten free desserts and they were simply amazing!

Judy Mitchell

This place is AMAZING! We drove 50 minutes to get there and it was worth every minute! Judy was wonderful in telling us everything available. We left with pastries and a chicken pot pie and a spinach pie which were outstanding!! Would never know any of this was gluten free! Highly recommend !!

Eliza Fisher

My family and I have been making the trip to Chatila's for a few years now and love it. Years ago I only found the appeal in it because I got some yummy baked goods. My view on the business now has shifted. I am strictly Gluten Free and I am now Sugar Free by choice. My dad also keeps the Keto Diet. We both love everything we have ever had there. We live about an hour away, but it is worth it. Staff is efficient and helpful.

Bruce McClure

Excellent all around. It's no wonder this place is busy so often. IMPORTANT: THEY TAKE CARE OF THOSE WHO HAVE FOOD ALLERGIES! My wife is one with celiac disease, and they were fantastic in taking care of her and making her meal safe for her. That earns our trust and respect! We'll be back.

Jennifer Rexford

I love the food here and they are gluten free friendly. The only thing negative is have to say is they have no changing tables in the restrooms.

Kathleen Reilly

Excellent gluten friendly and regular baked goods! The Christmas Eve pickup was wonderful. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating.

Cindy Miller

Friendly and accommodating staff! Very yummy food Someone in our party was trying to be gluten free and she was able to get a sandwich and a soup all gluten free and recommended by the server. Very cozy community and you can tell is loved by the locals

Rachel Stewart

Food was great - service was fabulous - I love this place!! Lots of gluten free too….

Eliza Ardine

If doughnuts are your guilty pleasure, you will love NH Dough Co. We love stopping by as the occasional sweet treat. We have tried everything they have to offer; gluten free, vegan, etc., and we have always been impressed. The doughnuts are always fresh and the staff is always friendly. This is a worthwhile stop for all doughnut lovers.

Amanda Johnson

Just what we needed. I was so excited to find gluten-free options here. Cute little cafe, great coffee and snacks. I got the Caprese sandwich which was delicious. Highly recommend. The kids got tons of smoothies. Really made us feel healthy for our road trip back. Make sure to stop here. Service was great owners were really cool.

Too bad I’m limited to 5 stars. This place was tucked in behind the VA medical center in North Conway. They are primarily commercial bakery, that obliged us passing through with their delicious donuts and baked goods. Can’t say enough about the maple brioche. Believe me, you won’t miss the gluten and won’t notice that it’s vegan. Delicious for everybody!

Julia Dickson

The waitresses are very nice and the food is consistently excellent. My family and I are regulars. Great breakfast/ brunch foods, haven’t had any of the lunch options. They have options for people with gluten problems and other dietary needs. My favorite place to get brunch

Barbara Burke

It’s always great to find yummy & affordable gluten free baked goods!

Piper

Walked in just to try it out- got a gluten free cupcake for my mom. It was so good! I tried some and I couldn’t even tell that it was gluten free!

Shannon Drew

Ally did my cake for my wedding, and she was absolutely amazing to work with! I recently had to go gluten-free, and I was so stressed about finding a good dessert option. Finding Specially Made took all those worries away! Ally was amazing to work with from the start. We were able to set up a cake tasting, and she has lots of yummy flavor combinations to choose from. Her pricing is affordable, and she was very flexible when it came to arranging for the cake to be delivered. The cake was a hit with everybody, and most people could not even tell it was gluten-free! If you are looking for a gluten-free option or just a yummy cake in general, you should definitely book with Ally!

Jill B

This place is by far the best bakery I have experienced! The best cookies ever! My family loves the salted chocolate, chocolate chip cookies! But everything is amazing! They have delicious gluten-free as well!

Michelle Lambert

Servers are knowledgeable about gluten-free needs. One of the best burgers I've ever had was here, and I'm not even a huge fan of burgers! :)

Emily Philbrick

Cutest little bakery with gluten free options. Good biscuits!

Christine Homsi

Best Gluten Free Rolls I’ve eaten! Very Soft and the texture is incredible. The only thing I wish is that the ingredients for the rolls aren’t listed on the bag to check for other allergies.

Len Sheppard

Word of caution. Recommendations are mentioning gluten free foods. They are careful to label their goods as gluten friendly and make a point to say it’s not to be considered gluten free and may not be gluten free.

Oakley Krakow

Great food! They have an outside deck with tables and chairs for a nice vibe. They have bagels (gluten free bagels too!) coffee, hot chocolate, and much more! So good!

Leah Page

Their products are fabulous. However, I've ordered their Millet & Rice sandwich bread for a few years and I'm extremely disappointed about the malted barley addition. I recently ordered 3 loaves, ate some assuming it was the same recipe, and came on to write a review of how good it was and how it had improved since the last time I ordered. It was hard to believe it could have improved as it was a perfect non-gluten bread before. Then I saw the other reviews re: the malted barley. The barley has improved it, but at the detriment to those of us who can no longer eat it. For those who want to avoid gluten, but don't need to, it's wonderful. For those of us who need to avoid gluten, it's a sad day. FYI the ingredient list is not visible on the website and is covered by the item next to it.

I never knew that there is a nice, basic kitchen tools area and a really lovely eating area! BTW I buy fish here all the time and it's always so fresh! Today when I walked in they had a basket of fresh fruit, free for children; how wonderful!! Recently I've been buying fresh fish and it's great, really fresh and delicious. I often buy the prepackaged stuff and it's great. They also have an excellent smoked fish selection of high quality smoked salmon, mackerel, clams and they're delicious. The meat department has lots of local farm choices and also meat that's very competitively priced. The cheese department is divine, mostly expensive, high end, lots of local cheeses, really nice. Beautiful condiments including avocado oil mayonnaise, fancy French mustards, ... There's a large dried fruit and nut and bulk stuff department. A lot of gluten free choices from croutons, stuffing mix, pizza, crackers, pasta, breads, pie .. yay! The store is really clean, well organized and pleasant to shop at. The staff is really helpful and nice. I absolutely love the co-op and I'm thankful that I can get excellent ingredients and treats despite living in Northern NH ... Great selection. Super quality of meat, dairy, vegetables; a really amazing store! Beautiful produce, what I appreciate most is their selection of local greens and the mushrooms. Also local apples, tomatoes, onions, winter squash, ... Excellent beer, wine, hard cider selections are excellent. Beautiful cheese selection! Lots of gluten free options. Very clean. Excellent service.

First of all, my Mom loves this bakery. Everything I've tasted has been fabulous. I got to stop by and pick out a few things. Oh ra, almost forgot there is a wide selection of gluten-free snacks available. LAVA CAKE = Bravo 🙏

Jonathan Benton

I’ve been debating if I wanted to say anything for quite a while, but frankly, they’re not the same quality Black Forest they used to be. We used to go there several times a week. They used to have a lot of good gluten-free options and their gluten-free cheesecakes used to be amazing. We noticed the quality had slipped and even stuck around for a while to see if it would improve, it only got worse. We used to acquire cakes and such for family events, so we were loyal reoccurring customers, but now those days are gone.

Sydney Pepin

My boyfriend ordered me a gluten free cake for my birthday and it was the best cake i’ve ever had. No one knew it was vegan and gluten free and when we told people they were shocked!! Will definitely be buying more from here!!!

Julia Ramos-Mucci

We loved the food here. All was tasty, cooked very well & had innovative flavor combinations using seasonal ingredients. We will be back, but we would really love some kid-friendly gluten-free options in the future.

Cathy Cohiba

Love that they have a great selection of delicious gluten-free options. I will go out of my way to go there. Very friendly and sweet staff always there, too!

Stephen Priest

First, the wonderful aroma of whatever was being made when I first walked in. The sushi 🍣 counter was limited in choice, but, I saw an interesting creation of fish, pickled ginger and rice styled rolls combined in a salad style ready to go meal. The bulk of the groceries are aimed at the health conscious or those looking for gluten free 🆓. Local goods and produce section available. There was even a honey 🍯 dispenser. Don't tell Winnie the Pooh! There are 🥪 sandwiches and heat and eat meals to go. There is a dining area available. The prices are a little high, but, that's not uncommon for health food stores. I will stop by again when I'm in the area. The sushi bowl has my interest.

Stephanie Greenlaw

First time going there. The only place I found that did gluten-free cheesecake. which I had gotten for my dad's 80th birthday. He has been looking for one for a while. I will try it this coming Thursday. I purchased a chocolate chip 🍪 for my grandson, a cheesecake for me and a brownie for my mom. It was all sooo good. I highly recommend this place.

Alexis Stefano

My absolute favorite cafe in the area. A staff member recommended me the blood orange hazelnut latte and now I'm addicted. It tastes like a chocolate orange. This is the perfect place to meet up with friends or sit and do some work in a cozy atmosphere. I have also experienced a custom cake by them (lemon & blueberry AND gluten free AND custom decorated) and it was spectacular.

Paige Watkins

Ordered gluten free cake last minute. Owner went above and beyond trying to accommodate me. The cake was fabulous, people couldn’t even tell it was gluten free! It was also a lot cheaper than other GF cakes we’ve gotten in the past.

Christopher Saari

The Sweet Spot is a real find. Everything is made from scratch, with ingredients you know the names of! The breakfast sandwiches come on a fresh made biscuit, and the sandwiches on home-made bread. The desserts are to die for. The lemon bars are super lemony, the eclairs are unbelievably rich and creamy, and even the donuts taste light and fresh. The bakery used to be known for its pies, and owner/baker Jackie has been improving on them. I’ve only had time to try to one, and I picked my favorite strawberry rhubarb. Both the crust and the filling were great. Jackie says the key lime pie is her best, so I have to try that next. The place itself is bright and cozy. It’s a nice spot to sit and enjoy some coffee and conversation. Chat with the new owners, Jackie and Jim. They are anxious to please. (They are not the grumpy owners mentioned in reviews from last year.) They take into account what their customers say and, as an example, have started baking some gluten free products because customers requested them. Long-time local residents, Jackie is an experienced baker who decided to open her own shop. She uses only fresh ingredients, and she knows what she’s doing with them! Jim is an old hand at breakfast treats and sandwiches. He’s introduced his grandmother’s pork pie (“Big Ma’s” pie). That’s a take-away item and I haven’t tried it yet, but other customers were raving about it. I highly recommend trying this place.

I can't believe I've taken this long to review this place. I discovered Queen City Cupcakes when I first moved here about a year and a half ago. They are hands down the most delicious, moist, flavorful cupcakes you will ever have the joy to eat. I have tried numerous different flavors, and have never been disappointed with any of them. They have rotating flavors, and their website lists their weekly scheduled flavors so you can see what flavors they have each day, and decide when you want to go in and grab your favorites. Gluten-free options are also available. The cupcakes are bigger than normal cupcakes as well. They also do pre-orders for holidays, and will say in advance the flavors they're going to have. I pre-ordered a bunch of cupcakes for Thanksgiving last year and they were all delightful. Lastly, they have a loyalty stamp card, so for every cupcake you buy, once you fill the card you can get a free cupcake. I've gone through several of those already. If you're in Manchester and looking for something sweet, in my opinion, there's no better place for something quick and delicious. But be warned, they do sell out fast!

Janet Madison

My family loves all of the gluten free options. This bakery is always our go to for an event. Orders are always ready for pick up. The cakes and cookies are delicious!!!! We will continue to place orders through Allie Cat Bake Shop!

Len Sheppard

Have customized dinner orders for me to be GF. Go to lengths to ensure they understand if gluten is in a product someone else manufactured. Take my celiac seriously.

Nancy Hayward

I had a gluten free BLT, was great better than others I've had. I wish there were more gluten free items.

Jessica Fratturelli

We got mini pies for our fall wedding and let me tell you people thought I was nuts for opting for small pastries over having a wedding cake but they were a HUGE HIT!!! They gave us a box to sample different filling and crusts from which we picked 5 of our favorites. They were able to deliver to venue for a lil extra fee but they came out DELICIOUS!!! Our guests loved them and we couldn't be happier with them. They even had gluten free ones set aside for my guests with allergies. Anytime I am up in Manchester, I am definitely stopping by for their baked goods!!!

phoebe holland

Cute Lil spot a bit out of the main hustle n bustle of downtown. Not much seating Def a to go situation. I just ate a delicious Italian sub. I am now a happy camper. They also have a great gluten free chocolate cake...I'm not gluten free and I get it anyway it's that good.

A Faison

Very accommodating, easy to work with and the GLUTEN FREE cake for our wedding was AMAZING! My sister in law who has celiac, said she has never had a Gluten free cake, so moist, flavorful and light. thank you so much!!! Highly recommend especially if you are looking for Gluten free cake!

M S

Homemade ice cream with unique, gourmet flavors! Extremely accommodating to gluten free needs. The gluten free brownie looked delicious 🤤 If you’re looking for a boring and basic ice cream shop, go somewhere else. This place is about specialty ice cream, and it’s worth every penny.

Meghan

Gluten free sandwiches (they will toast your bread if you ask) and they had gluten free brownies! Both were very good and an unexpected delight! Very cute inside. Lots of homemade hats, earmuffs, mittens. Adorable.

Kathryn Ranieri

First, let me say, how delighted and surprised at the growth in Portsmouth, NH. Second, for me, La Maison Navarre is an especially wonderful addition because I miss those precious moments on business trips enjoying scrumptious pastries and coffee in Paris. La Maison Navarre was a genuine delight in every aspect, more so because my granddaughter was over the moon with the gluten free Paris Brest. She resides in Boston and flies for American Airlines. You can be assured the good word will be spread far and wide about your lovely cafe.
