We were told to visit Old Europe Pastries because they have gluten-free options. Indeed, they do! The carrot cake is outstanding. We also got what I'll call a lemon bundt cake (which I can't remember the exact name, sorry), which was excellent. We'll definitely go back!
Known for its creative and delicious cakes, this spot is a must-visit for unique flavors and charming designs, despite occasional communication hiccups.

Perfect! This is the second time I’ve ordered gluten free cakes from Short Street Cakes for my birthday. I ordered 2 cakes for my this time, they were delicious and so cute! The raspberry almond cake was amazing and I highly recommend. These cakes were the best part of my birthday this year!
A local gem with a drive-thru, known for its amazing coffee, environmentally-friendly practices, and a cool vibe.

Really awesome café!! I love their pastries and smoothies. They also have a really nice backyard space with lots of spaced out seating. They have plenty of gluten-free pastries.
A cozy bakery with stellar espresso and unique whole-grain breads, perfect for a refreshing break and sweet indulgences.

Such a fun bakery! Amazing espresso, and their gluten free tea cakes (financiers, I think) were the best gluten free pastries I've ever had at a bakery
Get ready for stunning, creative cakes that'll blow your mind, perfect for any celebration and adored by everyone, regardless of their dietary needs!

Wendi was so sweet and enthusiastic from my first contact with her, which really went a long way to making the process a joy. She created a gorgeous and delicious gluten free lemon cake with raspberry filling. The decoration was beautiful and celebratory for my mom's 80th birthday. I picked up on a Friday and the party was Saturday. As we were about to serve the cake, a guest with a nut allergy wondered if any nut flours had been used. I texted Wendi and she responded immediately. Our guest was able to enjoy the cake with everyone else. All in all, a great experience that added a lot to a very special occasion.

I've been here twice and I'm hooked! I love that they offer gluten free options, I do wish some of the specialty flavors were GF but the raspberry lemon cake is to die for. The prices are also awesome and affordable. The ladies that work there are very nice and welcoming. I definitely recommend!

My boyfriend and I visited Asheville for a long weekend and Le Bon Café was on our list of must go places. We ended up going there twice because it was so good! I even bought a bag of coffee beans to bring home. I have a gluten sensitivity and they offer super delicious gluten free pastries too! Definitely recommend this cute little coffee place to anyone and everyone who visits the area!

So, this may be a long one... I have known both Dawn and Jonathon for several years. I have, so far, taken sustenance form nearly their entire arsenal of bakery goods... Simply, they are both gods of gluten.
From Jonathon's sourdough (Honey Flax Seed is a current favorite), to Dawn's laminated pastries, morning buns, "mom tarts" the ethic, the intent, the evolution of what they make, for their customers to enjoy is some of the best that Western North Carolina has to offer.
I am proud to call them my friends, even happier at their successes in creating amazing baked goods for friends and visitors alike.
Simply theya re NO joke in the bakery game, and you will kick yourself for not buying extra every time you are there...
*The photo is Jonathon's basic sourdough (my second favorite) toasted with my own Mr. Stripey tomato slice, my own pesto, Parmesan and mayo...

Got a gluten free, dairy free cupcake at Grind Fest and it's one of the best I've ever had. The vegan oatmeal cream pie was also delicious. I can't wait to try the cookies I got for later. I will definitely be buying more in the future
