100% GF Lots of options Staff really nice

Nikita Crane

I’d avoid the GF bun it’s very dry and crumbly but they the most celiac safe place I know! Dedicated fryers, very knowledgeable staff and amazing GF fried chicken! When you order online they even have a celiac option to check off.

The best gluten free bakery in the area! I have 0 worries about eating here.

Sienna Woodhall

I love their gluten free batter! Always a good time and the food is fresh!

Celiac approved and delicious

I really wanted to enjoy my meal but I was so disappointed. The Caribbean chicken bowl I ordered was very poor. I had four 1-inch pieces of dry chicken. No juices or sauce, which should surely be there if it's 'braised'. There was a lot of rice, but it was so dry. The vegetables were ok, I really liked the carrots. That was it! I was so happy to find a gluten-free restaurant, but it was a big letdown.

Night service and a great variety of delicious gluten-free things!

Love this place. They do both gluten free and standard baked goods plus a big variety of vegan treats and they're all spectactulor. They recently open a coffee shop inside too. The bougie drinks are a little on the sweet side for my taste but I can't argue with the quality. It's delicious! (the cold brew especially). I'm in trouble with them so convenitently close to my office.

Horrendous experience. We recently heard that this restaurant could cater to those with Celiac disease. So we gave it an go today!! Everyone was excited. After asking repeatedly to confirm everything is gluten free and free from cross contamination, before/during/after, we were assured it was. My 10 year old is now violently ill. I might point out that it was 2:00pm when dined and we were the only table there. All any parent of a child with Celiac asks is that a restaurant is just honest on whether they can guarantee gluten free food and possibility of cross contamination (within reason). If you can’t, we’ll bring something with us!! The severity of the reaction my son experiences is always in proportion to the amount gluten he ingests. If it’s a slight cross contamination, it’s usually a couple trips to the toilet to vomit, bit of Tylenol then he’s good. The severity of this particular attack tells me it was direct ingestion of wheat. We’re moments away from going to the hospital. To the waitress that served us and the owner of this establishment…shame on you. I wish you were here watching my child experience the effects of your neglect. Watching your child suffer like this is heartbreaking. While I’m on it…the service was terrible too. Seeing as how we were the only table in the place, why did I have to go to the bar to tell her we were ready to order, again to order a drink, then again to ask for the bill. The Canadian guilt in me still left a 15% tip. Regret that now. Edit to this post after the fact…Owner contacted me and refunded money. Offered up apology. He did clarify that food is prepared in same kitchen so avoidance of cross contamination cannot be guaranteed. He said staff are supposed to tell the customers this. He’s committed to retraining and educating.

First time visiting CB since we moved to Kamloops last month. We dined in for breakfast. Breakfast tacos, waffle benedict (bacon and apple), coffee, service...it was all absolutely fantastic. We also picked up a couple pieces of cheesecake for dessert after dinner. Peanut butter brownie cheesecake and champagne strawberry cheesecake. Amazing...delicious. This bistro/bakery is 100% gluten free...and if you didn't know that, you wouldn't know. This is one of those businesses that you want to shout about from the rooftops; but at the same time not because you want to get a seat when you go. CB will definitely be a go-to for us on a regular basis.

Had a lovely pizza and Choc brownie, highly recommend it, but what made the place so memorable was the server Sienna who was awesome and the young chef who took the time to ensure we enjoyed our meal. The only downside was that the gluten free pizza crust my buddy had was not so good but edible.

No MSG No Garlic Foodie

We decided to visit Victoria after finding several restaurants offering vegan food. Since Be Love is dedicated vegan and also gluten free, it was my first choice. However, there wasn't that many items on the menu to my taste, but since they promise seasonal items, I had hoped that there would be some pleasant surprises. The rest of my party decided to order organic red and white wines by the glass. I chose Earthblood Tonic juice made with carrot, beet, celery, kale and ginger. It was very refreshing and looked stunning. The Mac Bowl appealed to me because it claimed to have braising greens, seasonal vegetable, and broccoli. I was warned that the sauce contains garlic, but I took a chance hoping that it would be black garlic rather than fresh garlic. Fortunately, the garlic was hardly noticeable and I was not affected. It was a very rich dish and I loved the creamy taste of the sauce. The roasted hazel nuts were strange and tasted as though the vegetables still had soil/sand/grit. I was disappointed with the scant amount of greens and vegetables, and if I had known, I might have asked for extra vegetables. And of course, I could not finish it the macaroni. If it wasn't for the 'gritty texture' I would have rated this four stars. My friends ordered the daily special gluten free ravioli with nettle. They all loved it. We also shared a platter with flatbread, cashew cream cheese, apple & beet chutney. I was only able to have one item because the rest were heavy with garlic.

Super coffee and gluten free cake options

Awesome spot, delicious food… always great service! As someone with celiac disease too, it’s a treat to find a gluten free location as well.

Chey Petrich

GLUTEN FREE CROISSANT OF MY DREAMS!!

Ivo S

So many amazing GF options - almost 90% of the menu is naturally or can be made GF!

Ali Crossley

Absolutely fantastic. Quick service and amazing gluten free options on menu….you wouldn’t even know it was vegan ;) the Kalimari is a absolute game changer!

Lana Fedora

In heaven. Most items are or can be made safe for celiac. Had the Yum Bowl…sooooo good. The best part though? GLUTEN FREE ONION RINGS. They were just incredible. If you’re able, come down and chow down. It’s definitely worth it.

Jessica Shifrin

Came here for our anniversary dinner, as a celiac I usually avoid eating out Italian as the pasta substitute js subpar, that was not the case here. The best gluten free pasta I’ve ever had and most appies and all deserts were gluten free. My gluten eating husband also said it was the best pasta he’s ever had. Was nice to have a desert option that was not a flourless chocolate cake, highly recommend the olive oil cake! The service was really good and they were very knowledgeable about celiac. Would highly recommend!

K M

This was the second time I've had their pizza! The cashew cheese is sooo good! All crusts are wheat free, and they have separate oven and fryer for celiac. The cashew blue cheese dip was the perfect pairing. One thing I wanted to add is the last time I had the BEST vegan ice cream flavor I've ever had. Lavender and butterfly pea! Please do that again!

Adrienne Rademaker

Great pizza. My partner has a gluten allergy, so he always orders the gf crust and it’s almost as good as the regular pizza crust - by far the best gf crust I’ve tasted.

Karmen Johnson

Called to place a take out order. Staff was very nice and friendly. We were given a very accurate time that our food would be ready. Four of us ordered four different meals and we were all very happy, especially my daughter who cannot eat gluten. It was so nice to not have to worry about any gluten cross contamination.

Matt

We had a great experience at omni. Extremely safe for celiacs. Everything on the menu can be made gluten free and anything they put in their deep fryer is naturally gluten free (rice flour). Huge plus for no fryer cross contamination! They had about 4 gluten free canned beers to choose from and we loved the fried Cajun honey chicken wings. Waitresses were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. We will be back!

Brittany Rene

This place is unreal! One of the best breakfasts of my life. Begging for y’all to open a location in LA. Objectively delicious breakfast. Plus perfect for my gluten and dairy free needs. I’m still thinking about that hollandaise. Kind staff. Good vibes. Went back the next day it was so good. If I lived in Victoria I would eat here once a week at least. Wish I could give more stars. NEVER CLOSE I BEG.

Annie Yang

The menu is SO CLEARLY LABELED! I can’t have gluten or dairy and I had the most fabulous dinner! The cider was also lovely. Kind staff that take allergies very seriously

Nikita Crane

Lots of GF celiac safe goodies my personal fav is the turtle cheesecake. You can also buy their products at Save On Foods frozen. Such a cute little bookshop and cafe but always packed!

Brenda Gibson

How lovely to find a place that is entirely gluten free!! Also vegan and sugar free. The meals were delicious, the desserts were ok. All quite pricey but I guess that's the cost of fresh and healthy.

Hilary Djeric

Fantastic place to have brunch! Being Celiac, there are often challenges with the menus, but here at Johns Place they accommodate for this. I had “Catch 22” which was half eggs benny (GF hollandaise) on a GF bun, and GF waffle. It was excelllent and so was the coffee!! Thank you so much for providing these options!!

Alice Trombley

Thank you for making pizza that I can actually eat that tastes amazing. Finding a gluten-free/dairy-free pizza that doesn’t taste like chemicals and sadness is a true feat. ❤️

Levi Gogolinski

I've been here a handful of times and the service is always excellent. They have a fully gluten free menu that is prepared in a separate part of the kitchen (including a dedicated gluten free fryer!) - a dream for anyone who is celiac. Highly recommend.

Fiona L

Absolutely loved that this restaurant is 100% gluten free! However the service and food was mediocre. The chicken tajine was well flavoured and a good portion to price, however the rice was quite dry to the point where it was a bit crunchy…. The braised beef sandwich was very disappoint. For the price it’s very small and didn’t really have any of the toppings listed in the menu. Service was slow and not very coordinated, by the time I received my dish everyone else at the table was already done eating. The chicken waffle sandwich was actually very good and a good portion for the price!

Marck S

Like this place very much. We tend to visit each time we are in the area. Great selection of vegetarian items, gluten free bakery options, as well as good breakfast and lunch choices.

D L

Not celiac safe. Cross contamination.

Jamie Potter

We were here from Ontario, and read that they served gluten free burgers and fries (my wife and son both have Celiac Disease). They were delicious!! Best burger and fries they've had, and my other two sons and I both loved our non gluten free burgers too. We all liked everything so much we came back a second time during our visit! Excellent and friendly service. Highly recommend!

Dani

Best tacos in town. If you are a vegetarian and/ or have lactose or gluten sensitivities it's a Shangri-La for your tastebuds.

Kathleen Oneill

Made me a gluten free pizza in under 10 minutes because we needed to catch the ferry! Delicious and speedy

Cameron Shier

This place is great! Love the food and the yam fries, The service is friendly, and it's awesome that they have gluten free buns!

André Paris

I will however that the very busy bartender didn't know of his own establishments policies and practices surrounding gluten free. Everything is prepared separately. Use an app like find me GF if you want a more accurate picture of any establishment.

Darragh Greaney

Couldn’t recommend this place more. Staff were honestly amazing. Modified the menu for celiac and honestly was so so tasty. Hats off to the chefs! Special thanks to Kat, Paige and Darren. They were so welcoming and nice, one of best experiences we’ve had to date in Vancouver. Thank you all 🎉

Kirsten Scoffield

Nice bakery and local diner offering a full palate of gluten free options.

Rachel McCollum

My favourite spot for baked goods in Revelstoke even though I’m not gluten intolerant 😍 The cookies, carrot cake, and brownies are phenomenal and we’ve also ordered a custom cake for a birthday (vanilla with caramel butter cream) that everyone loved! Can’t wait to visit at the new location!

diana estrada

Best breakfast we ever had! We took my husband for his birthday and we love it! Foos is delicious and they have a lot of options, including GLUTEN FREE! We love it!!! Highly recommend

Zoe Jamieson

We always love visiting Ulis. Last night we were visiting and I believe Dean (bubbly guy with beard) served us— he is the best! So knowledgeable and attentive, always making great recommendations. Plus there are many options for people with celiac disease. Thanks again Dean and ulis staff!

Patty Bowman

Great service and great gluten free menu!

Zoe Kirk

The new owners have kept up the high standards of the previous long time proprietors. Even more so...the ability to continue to get 'specialty' dietary options - celiac or gluten free - makes this a place I can take even my friends with the most complicated diet needs. Great coffee, fabulous food and intimate shady outside courtyard, and close to the farmers market, make it an easy decision to frequent the cafe. Visitors have told me they make the best gluten free sandwiches they've ever had!

Izzy

I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! As someone who needs gluten-free options, I was thrilled to see so many choices on the menu. The food was delicious, and the service was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and accommodating. The only hiccup was the choppy radio, but when we asked if they could turn it off, they were incredibly kind and took care of it right away. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a friendly spot with excellent service!

Natsu Fujita

Good food, celiac friendly, lots of GF options available. Large portions, very full afterwards!
