The best brunch for gluten free

S Smith

Great place for seafood and Gluten Free dining. We went for dinner and lunch both. The servers were fun and personable but they can be a little slow. It's worth it though. The food was great and there are numerous GF options.

Nicholas Turner

Wonderful gluten free bakery with great breakfast sandwiches, and lunch! If you're in the area and you have Celiac, I highly recommend checking it out!

Jason S.

Great food, friendly service, and 100% gluten free. We need more places like this!

Amethyst Smith

They were stellar from the moment we walked in. They had my mind at ease immediately assuring me they don’t even bring gluten into the building. The food was amazing it felt like a 5 star dining experience. The whole menu being gluten free and without worries of cross contamination it was a fantastic experience with food and service. I will be returning for all of my events worth celebrating. Not to mention a full side menu of mocktails 😊

Overpriced, low end of mediocre food served quickly in a blandly functional atmosphere reminiscent of a generic hotel breakfast lounge. Went here for breakfast. The food was... Not great. For a place called Biscuits and Waffles, we expected the biscuits and waffles to be pretty good. We were disappointed. My waffle was merely bland and spongy, soaking up the maple syrup cup without really changing the flavor. Inoffensive, but not exactly bad. The bacon I had with it was a bit overcooked, but again, inoffensive. My friend's biscuit and egg, however, was apparently rather unpleasant*. It was basically dry bread that tasted like too much baking soda in a vague biscuit shape. The egg was all right, nothing special. *Apparently their biscuits are gluten free, so maybe that's just what those are like. I don't know. All in all, it's far from the worst breakfast I've ever had, but I've also had much better at the same price point.

Awesome food, owner and atmosphere! So nice to see a dedicated GF/Celiac venue. Every time I'm in town I will revisit.

Katelyn Neumann

I appreciate having a bakery in this area that makes gluten-free foods. However, most of the items I've ordered have been disappointing and not worth the high cost. The biscuits are too dense, dry, and salty. The everything bagels are tough and salty. I wouldn't order either again. The cupcakes are okay. I do love the chocolate croissant, though. Get it heated. It is sweet, chocolately, and delightful. I will order it again. Please note this is not somewhere you can sit and eat. There is room for about 2-3 customers to enter, order, and exit.

Jane Hedgecock

The best place to get delicious vegan an gluten free baked goods in Tidewater!

Kathy Bowman

This restaurant is a real gem! I have two sons that have Celica's disease. It is very hard to find true gluten free restaurants. From the moment we stepped in, the staff was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about gluten-free options. The menu was extensive, with clearly labeled dishes, and we were able to create a fantastic meal. Even the dessert was a showstopper. The food was flavorful and delicious, and we left feeling satisfied and impressed. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone that has Celica's Disease.

Virginia Mom

Never a bad meal here! Worth the wait.. Had three meals since March. Food is always fresh and servers are very friendly. My daughter has celiac and always feels safe eating here. Our Mother’s day lunch was delicious!

Lindsay Walter

A gluten-free paradise! 99% of their offerings are gluten free and they take everything very seriously. On top of that, the food is DELICIOUS, even my non-gf friends were impressed.

Gina Wiley

I ordered a cake for my daughter’s baby shower. Shanna was terrific! I sent her a photo of our art style, and let her do her thing. The finished result was literally a work of art. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it was delicious, moist and fluffy. We chose two flavors, mocha and vanilla. The fondant was perfect. Several of our guests commented that though they had never liked fondant before, they loved this. No one could believe it was all gluten free. Corbin’s is pricey, but you definitely get what you pay for.

Elaine Gawronska

Had to wait a few minutes to get seated as they were busy. Obviously popular so that's good. Lots of gluten free and vegan options which were clearly marked on the menu and much appreciated. The food was delicious and the staff helpful and friendly.

Morgan Mills

Celiac friendly!!!!

Sarah Graves

SO MANY GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS!!! I adore Pinky’s they have a very up beat and fun vibe to them but also some I impeccable food with a large variety of options! I’ve been enjoying their brunch for years but I recently went for dinner with a girl friend of mine and to no shock their dinner menu is just as perfect as their brunch!

Ranie Barr

Delivery was a little pricy but worth every penny! I ordered a gluten free 3 piece and I had never had creamed kale before! Everything was absolutely amazing! So delicious and I can't wait to order from here again.

Lisa Rodriguez

So many great options for those that can only have gluten-free and one of the best butternut squash soups I've ever had.

Karen Jackson

Gluten free

Came here on Valentine’s Day. My server Lexi made sure my meals would be shellfish and gluten free. Also love how many gluten free options there are too. I had the devils pass dip which was so flavorful and had the cheeseburger which was good too. Also tried the chocolate decadence which is gluten free too, very rich chocolate flavor

Gluten free bakery

It was my first time visiting cheesetique. I just moved to the neighborhood so I wanted to check it out. For reference this Restaurant has gluten free options but they forgot and served me gluten free bread! I have an autoimmune disease that is sensitive to gluten so hence why I am gluten free. My husband and I ordered gluten free appetizers and he got the pasta. Then my sandwich came and I didnt know if it was GF. The bread looked gf but it tasted different than gf. I began to eat it when the waitress came by 10 mins later to check on us I asked her to confirm if it was GF and she looked at me saying whoops, "no, so sorry." I trusted her given our long convo about gluten free about all our other items. I don't know if she forgot or the chef and kitchen didnt read the notes but we were clear I was GF. The manager came by apologized told us he took off my sandwich but we shared with him if it was more severe someone could have died or gotten more sick... which can be a lawsuit. I told him he should have comped us for the entire meal. It was unacceptable. He then promptly said dont worry about paying. We left a tip for our waitress still but we are very disappointed about our experience and the mistake. This experience occurred on Aug 2nd and 7pm. We left the restaurant with our food items to go at around 8:30pm.

GF waffle was meh. I have celiac so I am judging in comparison to GF foods purely. The cheese had a crust on it like it was American cheese that had been overcooked and the peppers were cooked somehow such that the skin was still super tough but the meat was mush. The service was also quite slow. The savory choice didn't work out. I do not appear to have been glutened however, so a star is earned back for that.

Madeline Posse

Alex F was our server and he was amazing!!! The gluten free options are great too

Spicee Poet

I was really excited to try this spot and was a little disappointed. Great and extensive menu with gluten-free, vegan, and healthy options. I ordered the pancake combo, and my pancakes were undercooked. They were perfectly brown on the outside, but the inside wasn't cooked through enough. My server was friendly and the restaurants decor matches it's name.

Brandy Pollard

We have been to the bakery twice now and bought the bakery items from Good Foods Grocery and Elwood and Thompson. We have had the take and bake cinnamon rolls, brownies, cupcakes, and more! Today we tried the strawberry shortcake and it was really good! The cupcakes are my daughter’s favorite. I have a soy allergy and gluten intolerance. My daughter has peanut, most tree nuts , and egg allergies. It’s so nice to be able to walk in and be able to let her have a choice. Thank you!

Mel Z.

Overall, the pastries are really good. I like their cookies and apple donuts. They always have a variety of stuff, and even their bread is suprisingly good for being gluten-free. The coffee is kind of so so and the cakes were a bit sweet for my liking. The service is always friendly and the interior is very cute. I will definitely be coming here more regularly

Chris Berry

This place has some positives, but my experience overall was disappointing. The atmosphere was nice, with a spacious bar area and a great beer selection that supports local breweries, which I really appreciated. However, the food and cleanliness left a lot to be desired. The French dip was a letdown – dry, with an odd choice of American cheese instead of the usual provolone or Swiss, and while mushrooms were included, which I know some places do, they’re not my preference. Overall, the sandwich just wasn’t good. The potato skins were also subpar, barely a 2 out of 5. On the other hand, the mac and cheese was pretty good, and my kid enjoyed it. There were some cleanliness issues. I found a small fleck of lint or hair on my cup, and I noticed the bartender using her bare hands to pick a lemon seed off the side of a glass while making water for another guest. These details were off-putting and made me feel a bit skeeved. While they do offer gluten-free options and a great beer selection, the food quality, service, and overall experience weren’t quite worth the price.

It is hard to put into words how much I love and respect this place. Everything I've had from here is amazing. The first time I popped in was over a year ago- I legit was almost in tears eating a cinnamon roll. And The chicken pie :,) to die for. Even iced coffee is somehow taken to another level- and it was VEGAN! I would have never guessed any of the items I had here were gluten free OR dairy free if I had not known its a dedicated Gluten Free, Dairy Free, & Wheat free kitchen. This place deserves more recognition. I even am able to try new things that I hadn't had even in my years before I was unable to eat gluten- like today I had a sample of minced fruit pie! its like your regular fruit pie on steroids- way more flavor. I love it!!! (Obviously I bought one lol) and also tried the Veggie pizza and Pepperoni pizzas today and they blew my socks off. Ambiance is great- calm french music, place smells amazing when you walk in. Greeted by friendly and knowledgable staff. Keep doin yo thang, guys! Thank you!!!

Elyssa

Favorite lunch spot for bbq. Great gluten free menu and service has always been good.

Jason Miller

They offer delicious Celiac options and take care to avoid cross contamination. Thank you for a great experience!

Eric Thornton

Thank you for offering gluten-free pizza🙏

Rina Shah

We went out for a special meal. Appreciate their ability to make food for my gluten sensitive daughter - Harrison our server took care of it for us.

Kaylee B (KB)

10/10, this is one of my favorite restaurants to go to, I have Celiac so finding gluten free options are hard but they even have a gluten free menu with plenty of delicious options! I've had 2 different burgers and pizza as well as their lava cake and all were absolutely divine.

Amanda Shipe

I was referred here because they have clean food and I wasn’t disappointed! I wish they would get grass fed grass finished option for the meat but the organic wild caught salmon and free range clean chicken were great! They have gluten free beer! Service was amazing!

Sandy Hinden

Great flexible eating offering lots of gluten free options. Turkey burger was dry but flavorful. Glazed salmon was fantastic. Pork buns were rich, smokey, spiced and delicious.

Donna M. Jones

After several poor attempts at gluten free eats, we finally made it to Whiskey Kitchen. First of all a Celiac heaven. I had crab cakes, which were amazing, fries (they have a dedicated fryer) and slaw. My fiance is from the DMV and had the crab cakes as well. He said they were true crab cakes and the best he’s had in a long time. We didn’t get dessert because our meals were huge. If you have Celiac or gluten intolerance, this is the best place in Virginia Beach.

Robert Bosse

My wife found this because she's gluten-free. By far one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. I don't think I could've finished my meal fast enough

Steve R

Gluten free pizza was great. Price is on the high side.

Scott Hackenburg

Not as fancy as the Richmond one, as that was what I was expecting. Food is good. Gluten free pizza still left me feeling hungry tho.

Dawn L

We always stop by Blue Ridge Bagels when we are in Lynchburg. They have gluten free options, almost anything on their menu. The food and coffee is delicious!

Linda Zaffram

Bruhhhhhh!!! Let me TELL YOU ABOUT THIS FRIED CHICKEN!! IT WAS GLUTEN FREE!! Seriously so.damn.good!! It's been on my list to try especially since they had gluten free options. The fact that it is actually real fried chicken is a BLESSING! The seasoned fries were YUM too. Big portion sizes as well. And the RANCH.... Made me want to slap my mama! It was so DELICIOUS 😋 Definitely give this place a go! My son didn't like his regular spicy sandwich but my daughter and I who have celiacs say YES! DEFINITELY EAT HERE! We will be back for girls night <3

Bill Shafer

Great practice, with lots of gluten-free options 12–21

Krista Viksnins

Great service, food, and atmosphere. Lots of good happy hour specials and amazing gluten free naan!

Laura Marsh

Surprisingly good food. Thought it was a chain with typical type good but everything was fresh and flavorful. Lots of gluten free options - onion roll for the burger for example! Yummy.

K. Ry (K-Ry)

I really enjoy the food. Truly. Great gluten free bun! Beyond burgers cooked well! If the fries were thinner and crispier and they had good vegan mayo this would be ...the perfect gluten free and vegan burger joint for me!! My first visit, employees seemed unsure while I was trying to confirm gluten free options. This past visit, the dude at the counter knew the answers without consulting others, which just gives me a sense of relief! I'm gluten free and vegan. I haven't gotten sick from this restaurant on either visit! I highly recommend getting your food to go or eating outside on a nice day. The inside smells as if the hoods haven't been cleaned...ever? My first visit with my family was during colder months. We ate in the shack. Afterward, I even had to wash everyone's winter coats to get that used grease smell out. I worked in food service far too long and have a sensitive nose, so maybe I'm not the ideal person to give feedback on the smell? I cannot stand that grease smell on my clothes or on anyone riding in my car!! Lol But, in all seriousness, if the hoods aren't getting cleaned it can be a fire hazard!! Be careful, y'all!

J. Danielle

One of my favorite places! If you are a picky eater, a person who likes to customize their order, or have dietary restrictions - Then come to Not Your Average Joe's!! I am SLOWLY transitioning to gluten free diet and I love the options here. Even the gluten free rolls are amazing...hands down the best I've had- and gluten free bread is hard to enjoy. I really like the Haddock and my kids love the pizza, cheese is always in abundance and gooey!

Carrie K

Run do NOT walk to Anna B’s for the oatmeal cream pie! It has become my favorite sweet treat. Do not let the gluten free part of this bakery fool you if you aren’t gluten free. You would never know the difference. The bakery is perfectly decorated and is so cozy. Always clean and fresh. A true hidden gem that needs everyone to know it exists!
