Boon Bakery

Gluten-Free Goodness That Surprises and Delights Date of Visit: Tuesday, June 24, 2025  Owen Sound, ON As someone who’s tried their fair share of gluten-free baked goods—and often found them dry, grainy, and underwhelming - I wasn’t expecting to be wowed. Boon Bakery proved me wrong in the best way. This 100% gluten-free and dairy-free bakery is a cozy little spot in downtown Owen Sound, and it’s clear from the moment you walk in that there’s serious talent behind the counter. Everything LOOKS amazing – the craftsmanship of the baking is on point.  We picked up a few treats: Nanaimo bars, carrot cakes, and butter tarts—each one beautifully crafted and full of flavour. These aren’t just good for people who need gluten-free—they’re just plain good. The attention to detail is impressive. Everything looks like it belongs in a pastry case in a high-end patisserie, but with the added bonus of being gluten-sensitive and dairy sensitive friendly. You can tell there’s a lot of heart and skill in every bite. While I have had many negative experiences with gluten-free baking, I have also had some truly positive ones, and I always keep an open mind and palate when trying a new bakery. So, If you’ve written off gluten-free baking in the past, Boon might just change your mind. It’s a lovely little bakery doing big things—and definitely worth a visit.

Seriously love the food here, iv had lots of gluten free and dairy free items from all around and by far Maegan (owner) has the best! Deffently a must try! Also sells other items not made in house but are gluten-free and dairy free it's great to be able to get these items and treats locally.

Wow. Being gluten free , their sourdough bread is a real treat.
