I recently visited Suzie's Gluten-Free Bakery and was blown away by the delicious treats and friendly service. As someone with gluten intolerance, finding good-quality baked goods can be a challenge, but Suzie's exceeded all expectations. From the moment I walked in, the aroma of freshly baked bread filled the air. The selection was impressive, with everything from muffins, squares to fresh buns. I especially loved the brown bread – it’s moist, flavorful, and didn't taste gluten-free at all! It brings back the grilled cheese in my house for me. The staff are nice and knowledgeable about gluten-free baking and helped me find the perfect treats for my dietary needs. The prices were high but you get a good quality product. I appreciated the attention to detail in packaging, ensuring that my treats stayed fresh on the journey home. I'll definitely be returning to Gluten-free By Suzie for all my baked goods needs when I’m in the neighbourhood– highly recommended!

Really great squares!! Couldn’t even tell they were gluten free. The lady at the front was really nice and helpful too.

Excellent service and a great menu..they are also quite educated on gluten intolerance, which is a great thing for those with a gluten sensitivity. Kudos for that!!!

Absolutely love Cafe Pyrus 🫶 Cafe Pyrus is one of my favourite small businesses in K/W. Their food is amazing, even for someone who not vegan or vegetarian. I love the options you are given here. Food/Drinks The entire food menu can be made gluten free for $1 or if you’re not feeling a side you subtract $2 from your total. I believe any sandwich can be made into a wrap as well. My favourite is the Angry Vegan with a soup. (My favourite soup is the tomato, but the lime, and pumpkin were great!) Their desserts are also great. I have had the peanut butter cup, which was good, but very melty in the hands. The nanaimo was also great and a little less melty. The drinks! I am not a coffee lover, but their lavender iced latte was delicious! My favourite drink is the Foggy London Town. (Lavender syrup, steamed milk, and earl grey) I have tried many drinks here and you can’t go wrong. Cafe/Vibe The cafe is an excellent place to sit and study/work. Their is a water pitcher with cups to grab yourself, which I love because I don’t have to feel bad asking for a bunch of water. It is currently covered in Christmas decor, which is really getting me in the Christmas spirit. I also noticed coming here that they do art features, I’ve seen @arcasian__ and now they’re doing one of my classmates, @partypoisioner! I love the local representation. For music, expect indie-pop, alternative. Great vibes, not too loud and great to keep a conversation with someone. (Shoutout to the person who played Midnight Rain!) There is street parking, but if you’re planning on staying, there is Mon-Fri 8am-5pm parking for $2.24 an hour (rough estimate) All in all, Cafe Pyrus is a must visit and I wish I lived much closer so I could be a regular. Thank you to all the kind staff and great food here!

Edit: I spoke with Brandon the owner and agreed to come back. As previous the pizza and drinks were great. Both Brandon and his brother were apologetic and made sure we had a great time. While they could have just ignored it, they owned the issue which says a lot. We will be back. I recently dined in at The Civil with some friends. I had heard great things about it and was eager to try it. On arrival our waiter, did seem relatively new to the role, to give this context, I have worked in Food and Beverage in 6 countries for large luxury hotels. He was pleasant and made every effort to accommodate. Received our initial drinks and they were well presented and tasty (Flights). We ordered pizzas and my girlfriend made sure to advise the waiter she does have a gluten intolerance and ordered the gluten friendly specific pizza crust. When her pizza was brought out, I clarified with the waiter it was gluten friendly and he said yes. Immediately following ran back to the table to let her know he made a mistake and forgot to make that note for the kitchen and he would get it fired immediately. To this point no issues and it was handled well. I understand mistakes sometimes happen and appreciated his sense of urgency in resolving it. They also waived the charge for her pizza which I thought was a kind gesture. The new pizza took approximately 18 minutes to come out of the kitchen. At this point everyone else is done eating. What really left a negative taste in my mouth was the conversation I overheard between our new server and who I believed to be the manager. His words were "you need to go talk to that table, there time is up and we need the table, They need to settle the bill." I can appreciate that they have policies in place and agree with the application of it, but at this point, my girlfriend has just gotten her pizza, is a slice in and we now have a waiter telling us its time to go. We were not here this long because we wanted to be, but rather as a result of you and your staff's actions, or lack there of. I am disappointed that we were made to feel like we were an inconvenience in a situation that we had little control over. The pizza was great, and overall the service was okay, but in light of the way in which we were treated, I will not be returning and could not wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone else.

Made a lunch reservation for my family at Red Ginger and we had an amazing time! The food was delicious, lots of gluten free and vegan options. The service was amazing, our server Noot took good care of everyone and made our dining experience excellent! :)

This is one of my favourite local places 🤍. I usually come by myself and sit at the window. Their potato pancakes and homemade hot sauce are some things that set them apart from other breakfast places , plus the service is lovely. Lots of yummy options including gluten free. Bacon and coffee is good ! I love darlise :)

The food was decent. The atmosphere is cold and could use some love… a picture on the wall or some candles? The waiter seated us in the back corner at the worst possible table even though the restaurant was not busy and we had made reservations days in advance. Also extremely disappointing that they have no gluten free pasta dishes or pizza. Probably wouldn’t bother going back for that reason as there are very few options for me.
