This is 100% Gluten-free and I loved it. So many options from the food to the drinks. For once I did not have to stress on what to get nor worry about cross contamination. I will be back!!
We are so glad we found Big Mike’s! We’re not even a gluten-free family, but the location was convenient—what a happy surprise! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. But the real standout? The exceptional service. Truly some of the best we’ve ever had. Friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome from start to finish. Can’t wait to come back and try more!
It’s great that options for gluten free are being made but as someone who is Celiac and has had their fair share of Gluten Free items, you can find better tasting desserts in middle of no where places like Scranton, PA. I want to be as constructive as possible in this review because it really is great that there are dedicated GF bakeries for those that are intolerant or Celiac, but that’s the only reason why it’s two stars and not one.
PRICING
I ordered a red velvet and vanilla cupcake and before I could even enjoy my cupcake I was very alarmed when I saw each cupcake rang up as 4 dollars. Again, these are normal sized cupcakes and if anything they are a bit on the smaller size. I understand that this is a niche small business trying to stay afloat but you have to consider that eating gluten free does not mean I have money to waste. Because I have Celiacs, I have no other option but to eat GF but today I decided it would be nice to splurge a little on a cupcake. However, if you are the average person in Miami, you will not be able to justify the cost of a singular cupcake. I’m also going to add on to here that the machine asked automatically for 18%,20%, or 25% tip… for takeout.
TASTE
Vanilla tasted strongly artificial and not pleasant. Red velvet was bitter and mild in every other flavor and was not well balanced with the cream cheese. Texture was gritty on both, more so on the vanilla. Aftertaste is not pleasant and is a somewhat tarty/sour, acidic, and bitter taste.
CONCLUSION
Saying you’re gluten free is not an excuse to make a bad menu item. The recipes are not refined and feel like a first attempt at making a gluten free dessert. Especially at the price range, I do not recommend the average person come here as the food will be subpar for what you pay for. Overall, I am disappointed after having read so many excellent reviews. I will continue to search for better GF options in Miami but I will not come here again. Thanks for spending the time to read this.
Seriously this was the best gluten free stuff I have ever had. I’ve recently been diagnosed with celiac and have struggled to find a bread I enjoy. I came here for challah but left with sour dough bread, cookies, a bagel, cake and banana bread. The owner was so sweet and everyone who worked there was so nice. They have samples of everything. I went with my dad who is not gluten free and he loved it all!

This place did not disappoint. Had the Margherita pizza and Buffalo e prosciutto. Amazing. For dairy free peeps, I can tolerate buffalo mozzarella. I found this out in Italy.
Service is excellent.
For a place that's supposedly healthy, the number of vegan options and options that can be veganized or made gluten free (clearly marked on the menu) are minimal.
Of the vegan options, there are hardly any that are flavorful or special, at least in our family's opinion. The hummus and split pea soup were reasonably good. The fries and buffalo cauliflower were too oily. Ramen was ok.
Atmosphere could be better in terms of the noise level. Not great for conversation while it's busy.
Overall, as a vegan/vegetarian family, we won't be going back.
As someone highly allergic to dairy it was exciting to hear that this vegan gluten free bakery opened in the area. Unfortunately it was a bit of a let down. For bakery items my family got cupcakes and donuts. The cupcakes were decent, not dense like a usual gluten free cupcake but there was no flavor to the cake. The vanilla one just tasted plain. The strawberry cheesecake donut had a great icing to it but the donut itself was dense and not like a donut at all. The frozen Katz donuts from the grocery store are better. Each pastry was $6 which seems overpriced for a barely mediocre dessert and they are not huge either. We took home the blueberry waffles($12 for a whole waffle which was cut up into 1/4 sections) , they are ok. The flavor tasted like a normal blueberry waffle and the texture was ok. Very average waffle. The mac and cheese ($16 for 2 servings) I got was very off putting. The cheese flavor was good, comparable to follow your heart brand but the noodles were awful, I made sure not to overheat it but somehow they came out very chewy. I want to give this place another go but am hesitant to due to the price point and a poor first impression.
I am celiac, dairy-free, and soy free. This was the first restaurant I felt comfortable eating in since the waiter and kitchen staff took all my dietary restrictions seriously and recommended certain foods that would abide to all of them. It is not easy to find an accommodating restaurant. I highly recommend this place for those who are very sensitive to strict dietary restrictions!! The food was prepared by a chef and the taste was phenomenal!!!
Met Stephanie her self she is absolutely an amazing person. When I tell you how excited I was to be able to have crepes after not able to have one in Epcot I screamed and boy was I excited to savor a savory crepe. My family and I are all celiac and so we got the salmon avocado crepe (amazing 10/10) and the strawberry banana Nutella once again amazing 10/10) highly recommend if in Miami area so amazing and have a whole gluten free menu 💖
I have had a lot of Key Lime pies over the years and this is one of the best and… it’s gluten free.
My wife and I also love the Vegan cakes. This is a go to spot!!
Chicken tenders to die for fried pickles are from my dreams and they will fry anything on their menu gluten free. Buffalo chicken Mac and cheese was out of this world and I actually have teared up many times from the taste of their amazing gluten free food.
It's a really amazing experience. So many options for all people in my party. Not one person had a bad thing to say. Took a container of the jam to go because it was so good.
This place was an absolute delight! The food was so fresh and so many options for gluten free foodies!! Wonderful staff! And a wonderful place! Will definitely go back when I am in the area.
I have never had a gluten free pizza that’s so good! 10/10 would recommend. They were able to make the crust still fluffy and crispy, something I’ve never had from gluten free dough. Will be driving 2 hours for this again very soon!
Gluten free options. Bakery and food. Had the vegan gf Buddha bowl salad. Everything was delicious. Will be back. Took home some baked gluten free bread.
The food was absolutely delicious! We were thrilled with their great selection of gluten-free options, which allowed us to enjoy a wonderful meal without worrying about our gluten allergy.
I love everything about this place. As somebody who eats gluten and dairy free, it’s always so easy to find stuff to eat on the menu. Did I mention all of it is ridiculously delicious? The staff is friendly and the service is quick. 10/10 would recommend
Absolutely amazing. The food is great, the workers are amazing, the place is great. I absolutely would recommend coming in whether you can’t have gluten or just want a tasty treat!
This is a very nice spot located in a shopping center that offers gluten free options for those that need it. The atmosphere is calm.The food is good and the surface is top, notch. I would recommend if your passing through the Space Coast.
Funky, fun coffee shop/cafe with many vegan, gluten free and keto options. The breakfast plate for 2 was delicious and literally could feed 4! Can’t wait to come back and try an arepa or smoothie! The no sugar chocolate donut and cinnamon roll were both delicious.
Bolay, I love you. I just wrapped up a very long and unexpected stay in Florida and I found that there was nearly nothing safe for celiacs where I was.. until I found Bolay. A celiac paradise. Fresh, flavorful, choices. The glass noodles and teriyaki chicken, hallelujah! Soft, chewy GLUTEN FREE cookies!! The staff are so patient, informed, and friendly! I will miss Bolay very much. Thank you for existing. Now please, expand nationwide! 💖💖💖
It was a treat for my little one to walk into a place and pick what ever he wanted. He usually has to settle for dairy& gluten free option, if they have one. Thank you!!!
I don’t get to make it to this type of town very often but when I do, I make it a point to stop by and get their gluten-free chicken tenders and french fries. For somebody who eats gluten-free it’s the little things in life that really make a huge difference in your day.
Awesome food. Been here two days in a row and it’s really a great place. Today I had a smoothie and avocado toast on gluten free bread - tastes amazing! Staff super friendly as well! Thank you!
Gluten free key lime pie (!!!) that tasted GOOD. Sometimes gf is not yummy and I have celiac disease so no choice. We bought a pie and brought it back to our hotel to eat over the 4 days we spent in Key West.
