Top 11 Gluten-Free Bakeries to Delight in Alexandria

Elaina Holko

I love this little cupcake shop so much! My wife and I often get a craving for cupcakes and they always pull through. The place is adorable - a whimsical little spot situated perfectly in Old Town. The staff is always so friendly even when busy. Also, they have great gluten-free cupcakes! Though if you’re like me and get cravings late in the day, it never hurts to call and make sure they’re in stock. Only rarely have they told me they’re sold out, but it happens as with all bakeries. I appreciate that they usually have one “traditional” flavor and then one that’s more unique for GF options. That’s a rare find. Bonus: they make a nice, hearty GF cupcake. Other place’s GF cupcakes tend to be dry and crumbly. Something about their cupcakes just tastes better. I’m no baker, but you really can taste the better-quality and fresh ingredients.

Great service, really fun place to eat, and delicious gluten free food. From the breakfast sandwich to the cookies it was all amazing. I’ll definitely be back.

I have mixed reviews here and have also seen lots of reviews that rave about gluten free. Let’s make this clear the baked goods are not necessarily the safest gluten-free to eat. They are all in the same case with other non-gluten-free baked goods crumbs everywhere next to each other and touching. It is gluten-free friendly so if you do not have celiac disease, I would recommend getting a baked good if you just eat gluten-free as fad diet. Gluten intolerant people eat at risk, but celiac disease people do not eat their baked goods. Their sandwiches are amazing!! Their other gluten-free friendly menu I always go into order and I make sure that they use cooking utensils and separate knives and separate everything while making my gluten-free sandwich on gluten-free bread so it will be celiac safe, but you have to go through the instructions with them or the chefs will just use, the same knives and everything else that they use for a regular gluten sandwich. Celiac celiac should stay away from their desserts. A lot of these reviews talking about gluten-free or misleading because they don’t talk about how gluten-free desserts are and they’re not celiac safe.

GET THE POT ROAST. My only complaint about the menu is that there are no gluten free bread substitutes so I was limited to the items on the menu that were labeled GF. The sandwiches all looked phenomenal though! The specialty coffee was delicious. I got the seasonal rose latte.

Nothing Bundt Cakes are always a rave everytime I share them with my family amd friends. I am Gluten Free and can only enjoy the Gluten Free Chocolate Chip variety. I would love to see the corporation to develop other Gluten Free varieties. My first choice would be Red Velvet.

Fantastic produce section. Very nice wine section for grocery store. Not half bad gluten free section.

I’ve been looking for a local bakery for a while now and I think I’ve found it! Everything looks and smells delicious! They have coffee (hot and iced), they have breakfast sandwiches, pastries (vegan and gluten free options), lunch sandwiches and a connected business that has burgers and fried chicken sandwiches! I got their breakfast burrito and tried it as soon as I got to the car. OMG! So delicious! I’m so thankful for Addy, she answered every question and when I saw the reward program pop up when I used my Apple Card, I was so impressed! I think it’s a new thing they recently started and it’s genius! I think I found my new favorite place 😭

I just love Something KETO..they are always so attentive and caring (kind of that ‘good old friend’ feeling!). Their desserts being sugar free and gluten free make me feel not so bad for eating 2 pieces at once (I just couldn’t stop!!)🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ and the attention to the detail is incredible. Just look at their cakes - a piece of art!
