Top 6 Gluten-Free Spots to Discover in Manchester, Richmond

I can't speak highly enough about my experience ordering a custom cake from Sweet Fix. I had many requests for my parents' 40th wedding anniversary cake (gluten free, needed to travel for hours, not too sweet, etc.) and everyone at Sweet Fix was so wonderful to work with, it completely alleviated any anxiety I had about this part of the party-planning process. They anticipated my needs and asked me questions I wouldn't have even thought to ask myself. The cake was gorgeous and delicious, and it received so many compliments from guests. We surprised my parents by making it look like (a modern version of) their wedding cake from 40 years ago, and it was so well-done that they recognized that effort immediately. Our family's celebration wouldn't have been quite the same without Sweet Fix and from now on, I can't imagine using a different bakery for our special occasions! Totally worth the price and the whole experience exceeded my expectations.

We got caught in the rain hiking and ran over for food and drinks outside to dry off. We had brunch and drinks in the beer garden. We had our 1 and 4 year old and our dog. They all loved the food. My friend with us had Celiac disease and had plenty of options. She mentioned their GF everything sandwich bun was particularly delicious and tasted like real bread! Staff was friendly and accommodating. A great brunch!

Absolutely love this place! It’s quickly become my favorite cafe to cowork in. The staff is super friendly, the vibes are cozy, the food is comforting (they’re fantastic with gluten free people like me), the internet’s fast, and they obviously care a lot about the community. They even have a rack of coats available for people who need them and hot meals for anyone who’s hungry and can’t afford it. Totally the type of place we should be supporting!

I'll start by saying the vegan oreo milkshake was one of the best milkshakes I've had in my life (vegan and nonvegan included). I HIGHLY recommend trying it. However, the Philly was lacking. I got the Supreme with fries for like $18 and feel like I was overcharged. I'm pretty sure it is just beyond burgers chopped up with a ton of mushrooms and then drowned in way too much dry seasonings that don't go together and then very little of the vegan cheese. The fries were stale tasting and also just covered in dry seasoning. The gluten-free option is just paying a $1 more for some reason to have it all placed on a big slice of iceberg lettuce. In conclusion: go for the milkshakes but skip the food.

Nice friendly place. The two stars are for a lack of options for a gluten free diet as well as a lack of interest in trying to accommodate someone with special needs. The food may be great but all I felt safe getting was water. The server at the window seemed to think gluten free and vegan were the same thing. So, gf customers, beware!
