Top 6 Gluten-Free Cafes to Delight in Stonington

Son recently became gluten free and was looking for restaurant in the area that had some choices. We had BLT's and sweet potato fries. They were fantastic and would never know bread was GF. Fantastic customer service! Inside seating was very clean with a welcoming atmosphere. Will definitely come again when back in this area!

Congratulations! Your search for your wedding cake/dessert vendor has come to an end. The Zest team is incredible to work with. We were navigating some dietary restrictions (Gluten Free, Dairy Free, etc.), and Gabriella was incredibly patient answering all of our questions. Their communication was top notch. The on-the-go tasting still involved a conversation with Gabriella at their shop, and it was informative without feeling pressured or sales-pitchy. It was a fun experience that allowed me and my husband to have a fun little picnic and taste all the yummy items. The options available for cakes and desserts is truly incredible. There's something for every taste preference. Some highlights: The gluten free chocolate cake was incredible. The regular chocolate was also ROCKIN' with the chocolate mousse. The red velvet was moist and the cream cheese filling had a great zing to it. The chocolate sea salt caramel tarts were a major crowd pleaser (one guest said they could die happy because they had eaten it, and it was the best thing they've ever tasted). The s'mores cookies are so unique, and the mini whoopie pies are such a fun whimsical treat. The chocolate covered strawberries also received five star reviews across the board. Beyond taste, the team brought our vision for the cake to life. They nailed the Lambeth design from our inspo pics! Delivery was seamless on our end as well. Our biggest regret of the wedding is only getting a few bites of cake! We will be coming back for anniversaries to come to get some treats. From the bottom of our hearts (and stomachs) we recommend Zest!

I had their gluten sensitive donut and it was delicious! Note it is gluten sensitive NOT gluten free so please do not try it or be careful if you have celiac or are very very sensitive/intolerant. It was delicious tasted like a vanilla cinnamon cake. I had her read me the ingredients which they have on hand in a binder if you want to see its ingredients. it is rice flour based *i am gluten intolerant/sensitive*

I'm vegan and gluten free, and when I'm traveling it can be hard to find good and reasonably priced options. This place was amazing! Great selection of choices, most of the menu is vegan and gluten free or can be easily made gluten free, very reasonable prices, and absolutely delicious. I wish they were closer to where I live, I'd go there often!
