Top 6 Gluten-Free Cafes to Relax in Renton

Kailyn Thompson

Please, please, please, for the love of any god... You must try their rose cardamom latte. It's truly and amazingly delicious. Too fancy? Worry not, the africano is bold and smooth for easy drinking as is or with a bit of cream and/or sugar. I've always loved the atmosphere and commitment to the community this place has had, and I love seeing them prosper. They definitely deserve the love and support! *** My only wish is that more gluten free options were available

Cute spot, the owner and staff are all friendly, easy going and chill. Very close and easy to walk to if you're in the area. A few gluten free bites, and they come up with a lot of fun, tasty, unique drink specials. Parking sucks since they share parking with all the small businesses in the building and next door. You might need to circle a few times. Love that they have traditional drinks on the menu, too. Macchiato, cortado, etc. They also serve a Mexican drinking chocolate, which is heavenly. Music is often very loud, so not the best place for meetings/online appointments or if you're looking for cozy, cute, quiet cafe. Definitely still a fun spot though.

TLDR: you can sample the ice cream flavors prior to making a decision. Fruit flavored scoops are a win-win. Imagine you are Remy from Ratatouille--close your eyes and let the macaron slowly melt in your mouth. Take it all in. The macarons are delightfully chewy but soft and the flavors are so delicate. Nut Allergy Alert: Just in case you didn't already know: macarons are made with almond flour. Parking: small shared strip parking along the street. We went on a Sunday and there were ample lots available. Menu: pretty straight forward and located on the right wall. Atmosphere: typical mini ice cream shop feel. No dining areas--mainly for grab and go. There is a mini shop for some merchandise at the window. Service: order and pay at the counter. Black Sesame: oooh a very nutty feel to this one. It's like a nut butter consistency. I love the hint of toasted sesame in it as well as the smoothness. Lychee Ice Cream: very lightly sweetened and a hint of lychee tang just like the real fruit! I love the lightness of this one but it might be too Mango Ice Cream: really smooth going down the hatch and the flavor tastes exactly like a champagne mango! Nothing artificial tasting here! Not overly sweet but oh so satisfying and refreshing! Mini Macarons: I got black sesame, passion fruit, matcha, and ube. In my honest opinion all tasted very similar and there was only a very slight hint of the flavor they claimed to be--most likely because the cream inside was literally a dollop. So, if you want macarons where you can actually taste the filling, I recommend getting the standard size. The mini ones in my opinion are just for aesthetics and, of course, the cuteness factor. I love the fact that there are gluten free options here. Also, how cool is it that you can customize macarons?! I think it would be a perfect gift for any occasion!

Stopped in to have a late breakfast. Met Debbie the owner/operator. We were the first customers of the day, and had lovely breakfast sandwiches on gluten free everything bagels with egg, cheese and bacon. The aioli on the sandwich gave it the perfect addition of mild spice. We each also had a latte that was perfect. Come on in and enjoy yourselves too!

I ordered a gluten free BLT which I have ordered in the past and was a really good size with lots of meat in the past. But this time it was very disappointingly small and the sandwich was no wider than two and a half inches wide on all sides and bacon was barely there and BURNT. Over 15$ for such a disappointing sandwich. If I had ordered not gluten free I know I would have gotten a good sized sandwich. When I ordered in the past they would compensate with more bread and meat to match the size of the regular blt. 🙃

Spacious and comfortable. There's dairy free options for milk and they have a few gluten free pastries (not donuts) but that's expected.
