Impressive gluten free and vegan menu

My family and I just move to Tennessee from Florida and it was hard for us to find a 100 percent dedicated gluten free bakery until we found this gem. The bakes good were amazing and my wife had a tuna salad panini she devoured in seconds lol, the atmosphere was great and customer service amazing.

Dedicated gluten-free bakery with dairy-free options

Ed Lambert

Absolutely the best gluten free vegan food ever! I have multiple food allergies and was thrilled to find this restaurant.

Manuel Ramos

I wanted to get up & play the Banjo,,, & I don't even know how to play. The food is sooooo delicious & the pastries are amazing 👏. Gluten free options galore. Wish this place was closer to home.

Michelle Lee

Tiny little cupcakery with an amazing selection of cupcakes and more. We come here every year for a sweet treat & it is always a delight. Had a gluten free friend with us who was pleasantly surprised with options available for her.

Its so hard to find really good gluten sensitive baked goods and this place does it better than any other! Their muffins and cupcakes are to die for and the meal prep options are great too.

Miranda Wilson

Owner was generous with her explanations and time. Her friend helping was bragging on all the items. We bought multiple items to try. I have never seen gluten free so reasonably priced. Will definitely make the trek back again.

Alexander Board

Was very disappointed to hear that the Gluten Free options available are cross contaminated (fryers are shared), especially as there is seemingly a lot of effort to prevent cross contamination in the preparation process and in the use of ingredients. Why make the effort to cater for an allergy to then cross contaminate it? However, from other members in my party, the other doughnuts were excellent!

DELICIOUS

Cathy Brummett

We happened upon this bakery traveling through Tennessee. I appreciated the gluten-free options. I had the Ruben sandwich with German potatoe salad my husband the pizza. Everything was delicious!!

Hillary Nelson

Cookies were good but not great. What’s best about this is that their GF items are fully separate so I felt comfortable (and had no reaction) as a celiac. I’d say the convince and safety factors are biggest drivers here.

Adrian Campbell

Wild Muffin made a vegan cake and cupcakes for our wedding 5 years ago. We had multiple guests thank us for not only having vegan options, but gluten free as well. They said they were usually excluded from enjoying the dessert at weddings. Everything was delicious and exactly what we ordered. I hate to see that they’re closed, but I hope they’re back open soon. Great customer service and food!

Zac Gillman

Gluten free kitchen sink… trust me! You won’t regret it!

Kelly Herron

We used the Better Baker for our wedding cake as my husband is gluten free. The cake tasting was so fun and they were super easy to work with. Cake delivery went well and it was delicious and decorated beautifully. Thank you guys so much for helping to make our day special!!!

Evelynn King

We love fainting goat and have bought gf items here before, unfortunately our last trip here wasn’t so great. We are still unsure if we were given the wrong nonGF muffin, OR if our muffin had cross contamination, either way if you have celiac please be careful here!

ben swanson

Everything we tried here was great. My daughter is celiac and really like the cinnamon pretzel and choc cookie.

Lauren Williams

Their gluten free cupcakes were ok

Bruce Gibson

A dual birthday celebration led is too the Acropolis Grill. The food was delicious, Lucy our server was wonderful, and we had the opportunity to sit outside and enjoy beautiful weather. I had the Gyro Dinner with a Greek salad. The meat was tender and perfectly cooked, the pita bread was good, and the rice was well prepared. One of our party was provided a vegetarian menu, and they also provided a gluten free menu. We'll definitely be going back here!

Robert Frazier

Amazing desserts! I recommend an ice cream sandwich with a Cookie Monster cookie, a Nutella cookie and bear batter ice cream. Make sure to get it hot pressed for the best experience! My wife likes the ice cream sandwiches with gluten free cookies as well!

D Gregory

I was excited to read that this place offered gluten free treats but after walking in and seeing the gluten free items directly beside the regular I did not feel safe to purchase and eat anything there. Cross contamination is highly likely. Eating gluten free is not a choice for many of us. Our bodies react adversely to gluten and makes us ill. To whomever the owner is: please consider placing the gluten free items in a separate area along with separate tongs and teach your employees about cross contamination and the need to change gloves for the safety and health of those who have to avoid it for health sake.

Enjoyed all the Gluten Free cupcakes and the Caramel and Chocolate Apples

John Moore

Located in a strip center in Brentwood,they serve breakfast and lunch. Family owned and open till 230pm midweek. Check their website for weekend hours. We seated ourselves and the server was friendly. My wife had the gluten free sausage breakfast sandwich and I had the biscuit and bacon breakfast sandwich. Both were a good portion and made fresh. Expect to pay higher than normal prices due to their Brentwood location. Menu choices are limited but they do offer plenty of To Go Meals and the food is very good.

Michael Golebiewski

This is a surprise restaurant I found in oak Ridge. Mostly country style cooking. Some of it is friendly to those with digestive issues, but not a lot. I was able to eat without gluten issues but it was an effort. I had grilled kingfish with sweet potato on the side and the person I was with had the catfish. The service was fine and the atmosphere was okay. It would have been nice to have eaten something dessert that was gluten-free because their desserts looked amazing. I wanted some of that banana pudding so bad! My hope is that I'll go back there and find a few more items that I can eat. One of the best things about this place is that the ingredients seem fresh and the food came out hot. If you have strong digestion systems then this is going to be an amazing experience for you.

Chanda King

I had an opportunity to try the red velvet and pistachio macarons were delicious. My son has a gluten free allergy and he enjoyed the wedding cake and the strawberry cupcakes. I was not to pleased with the regular cupcakes they were very heavy with a thick dense pound cake texture. I did not enjoy them at all and was really disappointed because I spent almost $40 for 6.

Abby Ray

Not only did they open for us after they closed so we could buy bakery items but this is the first bakery I’ve seen that has gluten free food. They have gluten free cinnamon rolls on Fridays! I haven’t had a cinnamon roll in years! They also sell gluten free funfetti donuts! I cried once I got into the car because not only did they open up for us but also had gluten free food and it’s the most delicious donuts I’ve had in years.

Paul Westoven

Gluten free cookie dough! This place was great. Prices were a little high but were totally worth it. I have a child with celiac and the staff was very knowledgeable about gluten free and they have a ton of options available. Family of five and we all got milkshakes with cookie dough. Was a perfect dessert.

Trina Clifton

Beautiful restaurant, and decent service. My companions enjoyed their meals, but we chose this restaurant because it offered gluten free options that I require. My gluten free entree was disappointing; in fact, I ate only one bite. It was just not edible in my opinion. The gluten free pasta used was extremely sub par. My advice would be to look into another source for this item. Normally a server would notice when a patron does not eat a meal, but our server whisked away my basically untouched plate without inquiring. I left the restaurant hungry and $40 to the less.

Erin Walker

One of my absolute favorite places in Cookeville. They are amazing for people who need gluten free options, both pastries and meals alike

Lauren James

Love this place! The employees are always super friendly. As someone who is dairy-free/gluten-free, I appreciate the wide selection of flavors they have.

Jordyn Pepper

I’m so excited to have a local miller here in Tennessee! Farmer Storehouse’s flour is absolutely amazing. I’ve struggled with gluten issues since childhood, but I decided to take a chance on their flour—and I haven’t had a single problem. I’ve now switched all my baking flour to theirs! On top of that, the staff is incredibly friendly and easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Rachel Dodson

The wedding cake was absolutely delicious! Everyone loved it! I took left overs to work and everyone couldn’t believe it was gluten free and so moist!!

Aurea Moore

I order gluten free and vegan cheese pizza, and honestly the best pizza I have EVER had. So it deserves stars, however… they’ve increased the prices about 5 times and I still continue to pay because you can’t find good quality Gf/vegan cheese pizza. But it sucks because 3 out 5 calls they’re either out of vegan cheese or Gf crust. Which is now starting to get on my nerves. I’m at the point where I’d rather make the drive to mellow mushroom for lesser quality pizza.. it is a small mom and pop shop and the people are wonderful so they do need the support.. but they do also need to establish a firm pricing structure and stocking issues.

Chopped Cupcakes

I am so very glad that I found this place. The cakes that were on display were so very beautiful and detailed. Their cakes stand out from other bakeries and are guaranteed to be the hit of any party or venue that you may need sweets for. They have a huge selection of goodies to choose from. They. Have cupcakes, brownies, cookies, cheesecakes, lemon bars….you name it, they got it! This is not necessarily a bad thing but if you are not into super sweet icing then this may not the place for you. The icing is VERY sweet but it’s sooooo good!!! The cupcakes are very moist and not dried out at all. The gluten free cheesecake seems to be more on the lighter side, just a heads up if you are looking for something that is not too “heavy”. The strawberry lemonade cupcake was my personal favorite! Those flavors just go together so well! The decor and atmosphere in here is vibrant and upbeat. The “cupcake tree” painted on the wall is also nice to look at. I highly recommend you stop in and get you some goodies if in Memphis!

Love that they are so attune to dietary needs! Gluten Free@

Christyn Ryan

The best coffee I have ever had on earth. The barista made an Americano with cardamom syrup, sprinkled with roast petals, and the flavor was the perfect balance of nutty, roasted coffee and sweet delicious yummy flavors. Love the gluten-free, orange, scone, phenomenal service, and a pleasant welcoming atmosphere

Faith Haselden

Amber was amazing! She and the lady working with her took the time to help us find the perfect ice cream for a gluten free need. She even went the extra mile to make sure she used new utensils to scoop the ice cream with. Thank you Amber for being so kind and caring and helpful!

Deena Dickey

Angela Beadenkopf

Great coffee and gluten free desserts!

Alison R

We LOVE this place!! We’ve gotten a cake (soo good), lunch (also good), and some single baked goods. Everything was amazing! Love that they have gluten free and dairy free options, too.

Meghan Wooten

Best gluten free donuts I've ever had. I had them one time and I haven't been able to stop thinking about them since.. I wish they made them more than one day a week. To die for

Eric Moore

The layered donuts looked delicious and received rave reviews from my wife and children. From a gluten free perspective, it was very disappointing. The GF donuts were not good. Very dense, very moist, very crumbly. I ate two (blueberry-lemon and cinnamon crunch) and neither's flavor was good enough to make up for the texture. Being GF I have lowered expectations for baked goods, but the GF donuts here just weren't good by any standard.

Claire McNatt

Gluten free Finds!!

Jamey

Got a giant chocolate chip cookie and it was so delicious. I still have a lot leftover I highly recommend this place a must stop in and have a yummy treat they even have gluten free stuff

One of the worst donuts I've ever had. Let me explain...we went later in the day so the selection was limited. This was my first time at Five Daughters Donuts so admittedly I was inexperienced with their system. We selected a couple of the standard donuts which were just fine but we also ordered two Strawberry Shortcake donuts and one peach fritter. My wife took a bite of the strawberry donut and immediately spit it out. I thought there's no way it could be that bad so I took a bite and it was like taking a bite of soft modeling clay. No taste what so ever. Awful. The peach fritter had some taste but it wasn't good. Like eating a peach flavored hamburger bun. The only thing I can figure is that they were vegan options or gluten free. I know the peach fritter was vegan, but I thought I would give it a shot. If you look at me, you should be able to make some assumptions, I like butter, eggs, all the things that make donuts great. A little heads up would have been nice. That strawberry Shortcake donuts should not be in the same case as the delicious donuts.

Lee Dixon

Everyone was SO nice to us and explained that the menus were accessible through the QR codes on the tables both inside and outside. The inside seating was a little close but the outside was great seating. I ordered waffles and my pregnant wife ordered gluten-free wrap (she has a lot of food allergies) for the breakfast burritos. So, they are not Belgium waffles, BUT they are homemade waffles, and they gave me FOUR! If you don’t like powdered sugar, make sure to ask about it when you order. Their blood orange lemonade was great and large and had refills! Overall, this was a great lunch date for me and my pregnant wife; it solved her craving, and gave her no adverse reactions, which, if you have food allergies, you know how hard it is to eat out!

Kimberly Gardner

A delicious, fresh Bundt cake and fast service—what’s not to love! They even have a gluten free one!! It is super moist and not dry at all, which is a difficult thing to achieve. My only complaints are that they don’t provide forks (pay extra for group bundle), and there is only one flavor that is gluten free.

Megan Dodge

Great gluten free cake option!!!

Sarah Seger

Best gluten free muffin and cookie I’ve ever had!!

Sarah Robbins

Tiramisu cake was to die for! We had a custom order and they delivered it perfectly. I'm so grateful they make gluten free cakes. Also had the banana chocolate chip muffin it was great.
