We ended up at this bakery by accident today. I hadn’t ever sought it out before because of it being vegan, in my experience gluten free + vegan baked goods aren’t the best. Boy was a wrong, I had one of the best cinnamon rolls of my life here (including glutinous ones). The service was lovely, atmosphere was great and I will definitely be back next time I am in the area, the pie looked incredible.
Amazing flavors!! Got 1/2 a dozen, my absolute FAVORITE the strawberry!!!
Gluten free!?? The texture reminds me of sticky rice more than a traditional donut. So very very delicious!!! I'll be back!!!
It's a smaller place, not a lot of seating - I think there is more outdoor seating than inside, perfect for summer!!
Service was friendly, and fast! I would highly recommend if you love pastries and are gluten free and or dairy free!!
You may need to park a block away, WORTH IT!!!
I do not have celiacs and am not gluten intolerant. The chicken strips are one of the best chicken I've had in my life, gluten-free or not. They were so moist yet crispy and crunchy; I would come back for just the chicken strips. But the beer too! My partner and I had three different kinds and loved all of them. If you're in the area, gluten-sensitive or not, stop in! It's amazing.
Everything so far has been great but the best thing on the menu is the cinnamon roll. Even my friends and family that can eat gluten prefer the cinnamon rolls made here. Just don't get the coffee it's over priced. Even with that 5 stars.
Absolutely fantastic! Since going gluten free I've been missing some good fried chicken. I got the C & W Sandwich, the extra large is no joke, saved half for another meal. Spicy chicken sandwich reminds me of the perfect home fried spicy southern chicken.
Loved that we were welcomed as soon as we walked in the door. After learning it was our first time eating here, our host gave us a comprehensive rundown of the menu, crowd favorites, and let us taste test each of the beverages (all of which were tasty and could easily become a fresh cocktail).
They have the sampler option, with five mini tacos, or you can order them individually for $3.50+.
Highlights: the horchata, the homemade corn tortillas, the barbacoa taco, the shrimp taco, and of course the fact that everything was gluten free for me to enjoy.
I will definitely be a frequent regular customer!
We have seen this place on our travels and always say we should go in. Tonight, we decided to.
We got there at 6:50pm.
First off, what kind of dining establishment closes at 8pm?
We walk inside and nobody is there to greet us.
Fortunately, they have a gong. I don't think it is there to summon the wait staff but did that stop us? No, definitely not.
The host/restaurant manager showed up promptly.
Asked us if we needed a weak constitution (vegetarian/vegan/gluten-free) menu. We did not.
We were escorted back to our both.
It was dark and minimalist. I expected it to be more "exotic" being a Global Restaurant. The walls were mostly bare with a couple French looking paintings.
We were given our menus and told that our waitress would be right with us.
Water was promptly served and then began the wait.
We had to wait a good 15 minutes in an almost empty restaurant before someone came close enough to flag down. Ordered a stuffed mushroom appetizer, a bottle of Savengion Blanc and a couple entrees.
While we waited, I overheard someone at a neighorimg table say they had never seen Back to the Future.(I don't believe you.)
Eggplant Parm and Mushrooms were great. The French Steak was not to my wife's liking.
The wine was great, thank New Zealand.
Overall, I'm glad we went but after spending $120, I don't think I would go again.
The owner makes everything in house, down the mustard and ketchup. Each item is incredibly flavorful and custom. All items are clearly labeled with allergens, and there is a dedicated GF fryer. I have celiac disease and am very sensitive, I had no problems eating here. Highly recommend trying a mix of everything by way of the sides! Hands down best GF meal we’ve had out in Portland!
Absolutely amazing food! The burger was awesome the fries were on point. The chicken tenders were a little over cooked but lots of variety for gluten free options. The Marionberry lemonade is on point! I will definitely be back. Delicious food and great service! They even have an outdoor eating area.
Best Clam Chowder in Town, possibly best on the west coast! Also: it’s GLUTEN FREE!! Which makes it that much more incredible! Very friendly and prompt service,
Discovered this place on Tik Tok by a previous guest. Placed this on my must do - to do list to come to when adventuring on my 10 day Oregon roadtrip. Very hard to find places that are “true healthy” restaurants when traveling.
Stopped in solo 5-30-25 post breakfast hours but before lunch. Was greeted by Cash - SO NICE, great personality!!!! suggestions were made but ultimately I decided to have the Vegan “tuna” chickpea salad sandwich. I had already had breakfast but wanted a light lunch before going hiking. (Had kitchen cut in half for me to take remainder on my hike). Loved the bread (almost sure and hoping it was gluten free) that was toasted lightly but not so hard it was like a crouton. The side soup was a vegetable type soup. Wow! Seasonings were on point with the sandwich and the soup.
Bathroom was clean.
ONLY THING that had me sad was no souvenir sticker. I travel all over the US frequently and enjoy collecting stickers. I don’t need cups, shirts when traveling. Please consider getting stickers.
If I ever come back to Portland area. Hands down you will have a repeat customer coming back. Thank you!!
An amazing meal with a great view. We got to sit upstairs so the scenery was great. We came specifically for my friend who has celiac to have fish and chips. Also ordered the brussel sprouts and the bread basket. Everything tasted great. Would love to come back!
We went with Verde Cocina as the caterers for our wedding and could not be more pleased with the decision.
Literally everyone came up to us to rave above the food. Having the EVO grill there made for a fun addition to the reception and also really made people feel like they were getting the most fresh high quality food. The cocktails were grabbed up almost immediately. Our only regret there was not buying more cocktails.
The first bite of crab cake we got after hours of photo taking and wedding stuff will go down as a top 5 bite of food i've ever had. the sentiments were shared by many.
Verde Cocina being a gluten-free restaurant and being very sensitive/aware of dietary restrictions was such a massive relief for us and for guests.
Arro(in charge of the catering) was so quick with communication, extremely personable, and made the menu selection process a real joy. He's also just a nice guy, by the time we'd actually gotten married he was so excited to say congrats.
Probably more that could be said, but I would just say if you are still looking for a catering option, just contact them. It will be worth exploring.
Amazing list of gluten free options, I love being able to visit a neighborhood diner style restaurant and not be limited to just a few items, especially while traveling
Our team at work just enjoyed a brunch catered by Homegrown Oregon Foods. Everything was delicious! The catering manager was so helpful with the ordering process and their service was excellent from start to finish. And, everyone on our team was able to enjoy brunch because Homegrown is certified gluten free. We won't hesitate to order from them again as a team, and I'm now personally looking forward to my next visit for lunch or a take home meal.
This restaurant was simply superb! We loved it so much that we had dinner there on Monday and Tuesday nights during our two day trip to Yachats, Oregon. The food was a 10+ and the service matched. I have celiacs disease and am confined to a gluten free diet. They had more gluten free dishes than almost any restaurant that we have tried in the last 6 years and the quality and flavors were superb.
Very laid back atmosphere with amazing food. The flat iron steak with the creamy horseradish is amazing!!!! Also recommend the the onion rings. Maybe should have put this first but all dishes can be made gluten free!!!!!! Does not affect me but my friends with allergies love it!!!!
Yowzas, this place was fantastic! I got the veggie sandwich, which was loaded with fresh crunchy veggies, perfectly ripe avocado and a delicious garlic herb sauce on a supertasty toasted sandwich bread - served with tortilla chips and fresh fruit. Got a fudgy oat brownie to split with a friend later, and it was equally delish. Everything on the menu is gluten-free! I'm picky about what I eat, and Ants on a Log fulfilled all my hopes and dreams. Staff is friendly; space is open, airy and pleasant. Restroom is large, bright and clean. Windows open to outdoor seating and greenery on one side and adjacent bouldering gym on another. I've already rerouted my Saturday plans to include a trip to Corvallis - specifically to hit this eatery. Three cheers for Ants On A Log!
Incredible fresh cake style donut made to order (can also be gluten vegan). We had Marionberry+Rosemary and Earl Grey Vanilla. Both hit the spot. Amazing customer service.
My new favorite place to eat forsure!! I didnt expect soooo many gluten free options!! Im gluten free this place is really just AMAZING THE STAFF & THE FOOD! I DONT EAT OUT MUCH ANY MORE BUT I DEFINITELY WILL BE COMING BACK HERE!
I can't believe we have such an amazing place with delicious gluten free options right here in our little town! Everything I've tried here has been DELICIOUS and I've tried almost everything on the menu at this point.
The cold pressed juices made on site are to die for - I especially love the pink one. My kiddo begs me to go out of my way to buy them for him! They've been doing some incredible weekly specials lately too. The one I had today has their house made kimchi and I was in heaven eating it. One week they had these unbelievable gluten free pancakes with lemon curd and it was the absolute best 🥰😋
The staff is great too - if you're a nerd like me make sure to chat them up about Magic the Gathering haha. I have made visiting Green Door a weekly tradition. It's my little special treat to myself after a long week. I cannot reccoment it enough.
This is such a cute little pub. It reminds us of the pubs in the UK. The food was delicious. I love all the gluten free options. The service was great, some of the friendliest we have experienced in recent years.
Consistently, reliably mids. I have never once had something "delicious" here, but it's never been outright inedible either. It's just consistently meh. If i had another GF option nearby, I'd go there. The dough is often either overly dry (as gluten free tends to be) or overly chewy... definitely needs improvement, especially considering the prices.
everything was super freshly made- you can see the gal making things fresh behind the counter. i am gluten free & was excited to have some GF pancakes. our food was great.
my chai tea was not great, but i love a spicy chai! saw some concerning reviews about anti LGBT, the cafe itself didn’t give off those vibes. the space itself was fine, and cute.
Came with two vegans who were delighted with the hipster bagel. It's huge! I had the vegan sando, and my friends, I am not even vegetarian but this sandwich was enchantingly delicious! Piles of smoky vegan thinly sliced salami that would satisfy any meat eater. I couldn't be happier with this sandwich. They also roast and sell coffee beans and have a menu full of creative rich lattes like "cookie butter" and "stroopwaffle". Their fresh bakery items include giant donuts and pastries (they offer vegan donuts and gluten free coffee cake alongside traditional goodies). Really great treat to find this place.
The only unpleasant thing was bumping into someone when I got up from the table to use the restroom. The area is small and my booty is not.
The food was AMAZING! Especially if you are gluten free. How do they get the cardamom french toast so thick? And the flavors *mwah.* I also tried the gluten free eggs Benny and it was very tasty too. Apparently there are yummy gluten free biscuits out there folks, and this is where they are hiding!
Also the location is cool too because there are 2 vintage stores right next door basically. All the staff was very friendly too =^.^=
The Beet Rueben, The Walnut Chorizo Quesadilla, The Utopia Dream Salad, The Gilt smoothie, Garden Scramble…Love this place! And I feel safe coming here with my Celiac Disease which is huge.
Just left this location because they wanted to charge me $33 for this same meal. I drove away and said that is crazy and went to the williamette location.
I drove up and asked about the gluten free bun and they said it was $2, which is not a good price. Later when I ordered my daughter meal, he proceeded to say gluten free burger when I never said I wanted that, I stated not gluten free. I proceeded to order my meal and he proceeded to say gluten free and I said not gluten. Then I said I wanted both the meals to have oreo shakes he said okay. He then proceeded to tell me it was gonna me $32 something and I was like I think something went wrong, can you add the shakes to the meal, I've never paid that much. Radio silence for over a minute with me saying hello 15 seconds. Then he finally answered and I said did you hear me and he said no, so I said can you put the shakes in the meals and he proceeded to ring everything up separately and tell me the price would still be $32 something. I about lost it, and said that is crazy and drove off, obviously a communication issue either with speaker or the worker. Either way was frustrating, will not be going back to that location.
Not my 1st time BUT stayed till l8 2 play TRIVIA w my friend and her hubby!
My friend LOVED LOVED LOVED the gluten free choices and the Gluten Free Beer!
