So many gluten free options! Will definitely come again next time we are visiting Bainbridge. Prince was our server and was fantastic. 10/10

Blackbird Bakery created all of the baked goods for our dessert bar at our wedding - they helped us determine quantities, sizes of platters we would need to rent, and were able to deliver to the venue. I have celiac disease and Heidi, the owner, was very clear that they are not a dedicated gluten free facility. She talked me through their cross-contamination prevention protocols, they have dedicated prep space, kitchen utensils, mixing bowls, etc. I appreciated the thoughtful warning, and as I have eaten there many, many times without getting sick, I felt safe ordering for our wedding. We were able to have a delicious selection of pies, their famous Italian cream cake, cookies, and cupcakes - including some non-gluten free vegan cupcakes for our vegan guests. We were able to go in for a "tasting" of sorts and look through their wedding book of previous events - where we had some cookies and a mezzaluna so I could taste their GF pie crust. If you have a chance, I highly recommend ordering an Italian cream cake or GF pie custom - it will blow your mind! Thank you again Heidi and the Blackbird Team!

came here for lunch as the Find Me Gluten Free app had enough reviews to make me think it was safe for someone with celiac disease. I asked our waitress several questions before ordering and she assured me that my prime rib sandwich on a gf bun would be safe. 4 bites in, after I had asked her to double check if the jus was safe, she let me know that the meat itself was basted in jus which had wheat. they brought me out a different sandwich which they rushed but never apologized up until I was leaving. the second sandwich took time to come out. the manager didn’t stop by our table and the waitress didn’t handle the situation well. the kitchen should’ve seen my order flagged as celiac and known not to serve me something with wheat. celiac is an autoimmune disorder where gluten causes damage to your stomach lining. so they essentially poisoned me and didn’t seem all too sorry. they still charged me for my meal and it wasn’t until I told them I shouldn’t have to pay that they comped me and apologized. they entire lunch was very awkward and put a huge damper on the energy of our day celebrating our friends 30th birthday. what a bummer. I was sick the rest of the day. I wouldn’t return.

Great small coffee shop! The matcha is really good. Not too busy, since it was Monday. I got my drinks fast and they tasted great! Overall no complaints, although I can see how the place can quickly get crowded and the staff overwhelmed, as per some of the other reviews, especially since I can see it being a popular tourist spot, but today all was great! The lemon lavender donut was pretty tasty, but a little bit on the dryer side, but understandable since it is gluten free as well as vegan. I would still get one again. I will come back next time I am in town for sure!

Not fancy at all. What I like about the atmosphere is that there isn't anything. It's a very chill Vietnamese restaurant in a tiny space. Everything is good. The weekend dim sum special is a treat --order ahead or expect to wait! My wife is celiac and she eats food from here without any problem, but not everything is GF. Well done Thuy!

Sauce Nouvelle is an 11/10. The guys were very hospitable. It was my first time at the shop. They helped me make a decision on which sandwich to order (kiwi pesto pork), and they made me feel comfortable with my gluten allergy. The flavors are so inventive, and they switch it up every few weeks. I can’t wait to return to see what they’re cooking up!

Second time here and can confidently say that this is a must-visit while on Bainbridge island. The food is reasonably priced and the menu is very diverse. For what it’s worth, we couldn’t make a reservation online but we showed up and got a table for two outside immediately. As far as the food, we actually came here the day after they changed the menu for the season so lucky us! Attached are pictures of the Thai iced coffee, taro egg rolls (gluten-free but delicious), pineapple rainbow trout, the caramel popcorn bread pudding and the seasonal panna cotta! A few honorable mentions (no pictures unfortunately!) from our first visit include the soft shell crab roll, the chili lime calamari, and the fire roasted clam!

Other than the view, there isn’t a whole lot good about this place. The food was expensive and had no flavor. We had 3 and 4+ spicy levels and it didn’t have any flavor. One of the people in our party was gluten free and, even after being told the dish was gluten free, this was not the case. Another fish dish was not cooked correctly. Find somewhere else

Tons of gf options. Had a great macron and my sons had the coffee cake and a whoopie pie. All were delicious.
