Jesse

Great pizza! Thanks for having gluten-free products!

Serena Selstead

Absolutely loved this place. the service was great and so was the food. I especially love how they had an excellent gluten free menu to chose from, I was able to get flavored pancakes unlike IHOP or Denny's their gluten free pancakes are just plain and they don't offer gf bread but this place does, I'm from WA State but when I move down here. I plan to eat here more often. Thank you guys for having a great gf menu for those of us that are allergic or intolerant.

They were AMAZING! They were very accommodating and double checked to make sure everything was safe!

Wow was it busy tonight! Nicole was our server and she was excellent and outstanding!! I would highly recommend her. We had lots of kids meals with Mac and cheese, cheeseburgers and mini corn dogs. Also the kids got kiddie size milk shakes. For the adults we got water, Shirley drink and coke. For our meals hot honey chicken, whiskey burger and avocado cheese burger. All the food was excellent. If it was not so busy I will have ordered more fries please.

This is the cutest spot! I loved the chill atmosphere and wish I could have spent more time here. We got breakfast sandwiches and I had a peppermint mocha, all of which were phenomenal. They have gluten free bread too, which was so nice. It can be very stressful to travel, never knowing if I'll be stuck eating salads the entire time, so it's always a welcome relief when I find places that care enough to stock a variety of options. Thank you. We will be back next time we're in town.

Thaddeus was our server and exceeded our expectations. His knowledge of the menu and recommendations were spot on. The alligator bites appetizer was delicious, as was the jambalaya. As a result of the quality of food and hs level of service is exactly why we returned the following night. Taylor, one of the hostesses, recognized us from the night before and welcomed us back. We were in Panama City for 7 nights and ate at Pineapple Willy's four times...it was THAT good! My husband who has celiac was well cared for. He enjoyed the bucket of ribs and the grilled chicken dinner. In addition to the Jambalaya, I had the Shrimp Po' Boy...loaded with popcorn shrimp on a crusty bun....chef's kiss! I also ate the Shrimp & Grits-another tasty dish! My last evening I enjoyed the Grilled Shrimp dinner. I was thoroughly impressed with every meal I ate. Service was prompt, and food was hot and delicious when brought to the table. Staff is quick to ensure your beverages are refilled. When you go, be sure to ask for Thaddeus - you won't be disappointed in the food or the service!

The food was amazing!! I had the 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon Calvone, and it was so damn good. My lady has celiac disease, so the restaurant choices can be limited, especially pizza joints. Brick and Barley truly stepped up to provide gluten-free options, and this is by far the best GF pizza she has ever had!! Thank you, Team B&B,P!

Bradley Thomas

Absolutely loved our experience at Zollos Pizza! We tried their gluten-free cheese pizza, and it was nothing short of amazing. The crust was perfectly crispy and the cheese was deliciously gooey, making each bite a delight. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was welcoming. If you're looking for a fantastic pizza option, especially for those with gluten sensitivities, Zollos is the place to go. Highly recommend! 🍕✨

Katrina McLeod

They have the gluten sensitive menu. I let the young lady know which was taking my order. she made sure to note my food, and she went to the back to let them know. My food came out a few minutes later than everyone else's, but he made sure that it had no bread, and he delivered a sealed pack of BBQ sauce to prevent possible contamination. The food was excellent. I had no issues afterwards. We will be returning.

Brenda Jones

OMG Yummy Delicious Cooked Fresh When You Order! Succulent Snow Crab Platter! Gluten Free! Picnic Tables.... Fast Friendly Service

Drake Browning

Never had a robot deliver a shake to me. Wings were tasty and so was the burger. Not a fan of tots. Was told there is no gluten free. They also don’t do half and half on wing flavors. 1 flavor only

Ashton Schuman

They have a selection of Celiac safe food but none of it is fried as they only have one fryer. Don’t be fooled by the gluten free batter. I was so excited for calamari when the waitress said gluten free batter but then I asked about the fryer. I had the lemon garlic shrimp with gluten free bread and a salad. It was absolutely delicious, but we waited an hour for our food to be brought out and 30 minutes for our order to be taken. We had waited an hour on the table so we didn’t have much of a choice. The waitress was a little clueless about cross contamination but did go ask her manager questions she didn’t know the answer to & checked with the kitchen to make sure my food could be made Celiac safe. Maybe service would be better for lunch.

Travis Huber

I want to start by saying that everything we had was wonderful… That being said, I think it is probably overpriced for what it is. The omelet was good and decent on flavor. My only complaint was the inside stuff could have been cooked a bit longer to bring out some more flavor. The homemade jam was great that they served with the toast, which was just okay for sourdough. The nice part about this place for anyone who is gluten-free is that they do not upcharge for taking the gluten-free option, although it is still a much smaller serving of GF toast than the sourdough. Overall, the service was great, and the summer drinks were the star of the show. The drinks were refreshing, and it was a good way to start the day.

Sarah Johnson

So delish!! Food came hot and fast. Really good gluten free crust. Would come back.

Eroica Wakstein

Great place for bbq, lots of gluten free options too. Sides change often and most are amazing. Highly recommend

David

I had a great experience here! Party of three, seated immediately. Friendly staff. Food brought out quickly. We ordered a dish with crab on the side but they did not make the dish without crab. We got crab on the side anyway! Also, our waitress said that the rolls we ordered were gluten free but they weren’t. They had the same crunchy flakes that made the miso soup not gluten free as well. Thankfully, the staff were incredibly accommodating and we had a fantastic experience regardless. We loved everything we ordered. Would totally come back!

Lily Martinez

Highly recommend Acai gluten free muffins, they're awesome

James B

Visiting the area and my better half and I heard about this place. The service was professional and inviting. The food was delicious and the portions great. They even have gluten free options! Only bad thing is they don't have one in my home town. Go check them out!

Kim Muller

Excellent service. Great food. So happy for the gluten free buns and dedicated fryer.

Paul Jones

Brought the family here because of gluten free menu offered. Restaurant was empty and service was slow. Food quality was disappointing.

Susan Merz

Great food, gluten-free

Faith Rojas

Raw & Juicy lives up to its name—clean, fresh food served in a space that feels like Tulum with a coastal Florida twist. Service was excellent (thank you, Sasha!), and there’s plenty of outdoor seating to soak up the sun. While I didn’t see any indoor tables, they have lots of healthy to-go snacks and drinks available. The food was spot-on. My only critique: the coffee didn’t quite hit the mark. But everything else was delicious—we bought the avocado toast egg & cheese sandwich (they ran out of biscuits), and gluten-free waffles with strawberries & maple syrup).

Jessica Armstrong

The food was great and the service was exceptional! Laticia is so kind and very attentive! I highly recommend this place, especially if you are gluten intolerant!

Sandy Beach

The choices for gluten free meals was more extensive than most. Terrific food, great service. Will go back again when in search of a good meal and good atmosphere.

Victoria Hensley

Leaving a one star review is being generous. I walked all the way from my hotel for these donuts that were supposed to be great for them tell me they were not making any gluten free donuts today

Britt Rouiller

We ate here 2x on our vacation week, yes it’s a tourist trap but decent gluten free options and I felt safe eating here with a wheat allergy

Charlie Curtis

John is amazing, my sister has a gluten allergy and he made sure that she had what she needed to stay safe. Definitely allergy friendly. Great food. Again, John was the best

Amy Ortloff

Best gluten free toast I’ve ever had and great coffee!

rachel begley

Loved their gluten free pizza

Kyle Robertson

Great fast food restaurant and they have a gluten free menu for people who have celiac disease.

Amy Carpenter

10/10 still craving these acai bowls! There are more locations than marked on Atly so check around because you might have more opportunities to eat. Offer GF granola and everything else is naturally gf. We’re super great about accommodations. So delicious!

Pamela

Ms. Jennifer was an earthly angel! She went above and beyond to ensure that i was taken care of with food and drinks that were safe for me since I have celiac disease. She offered prayers and love as well for me and my health. The food was extremely delicious and we will be joining her again!! Thanks Jennifer!! Much love sweet lady...I won't ever forget you ❤

Holly Johnston

Thank you Duncan was an absolute joy! Fantastic service. Attentive And knew the menu well. We are gluten free and he was very knowledgeable about the products And preparation. Thank you Duncan!

Laura Kirby

We love this place. It was clean, staff was nice & you get a lot of food for the price. We always get the burrito bowls because we have to eat gluten free so we can't have anything with flour. The salsa & cheese dips is very good also. Hubby gets chicken bowl. We have ate at both locations & both are good. Will eat here again. It wasn't that busy but we went on a Tuesday night.

Jessica

Its a beautiful,serene coffee shop in the midst of Panama city beach traffic chaos.This Cafe would make a beautful venue for family reunions and Weddings. While they are kinda overpriced they had some great coffee,sweetened with Tupelo honey,because they do not have anything artifical to sweeten it. They offer healthy food options like scrambled eggs,oatmeal with fruit and they do have vegan and gluten free options if that is a nutrition preference for you. The service was great,the owner is very friendly. They also have a onsite joga studio and a small store that sells homemade soaps and,tea and jewelry It is a busy area so be careful getting in and out that parking lot.

Erin Thieme

Placed an order for delivery and they called me personally to make sure one of the rolls I ordered they made gluten free. Means so much when you have an allergy and the restaurant is looking out for you! Awesome sushi on vacation- will be back!

Jessica —

In town for work. Found this pizza place around the corner from where we were staying. The employees were extremely friendly, the pizza was hot and delicious. We ordered half O’s BBQ Delight and Pineapple Express. They make everything fresh, and had a great selection of beer and cider. Super low key and enjoyable place during spring break - for non spring breakers. Although we didn’t try it, they do have gluten free crust on the menu.

ME MW

I really enjoyed eating here! Richard, the owner, is very kind and considerate! I am lactose and gluten intolerant and he, his daughter and restaurant family made me an amazing salad with some of the most delicious flavors! Not only that, they gave all of the mothers a fresh rose for mother's day!

Yasir Billoo

The sushi rolls we had were good. The Lo Mein and the rest of the menu seemed generic east Asian food. We didn't see much "fusion" in the offerings. Having said that, the staff was knowledgeable about Gluten Free and they do offer alternatives for those following a gluten free diet.

Sarah English

We had a great experience at Ford’s Garage! Simón was our server and did an awesome job—super friendly and on top of things. They were kind enough to let us sit on the porch with our dog, which we really appreciated. The food was pretty good (definitely hits the spot), and the atmosphere inside is really unique with all the vintage cars and cool décor. I love a place with a gluten free bun! It did get a little loud with all the chatter, but that just means people were enjoying themselves. Overall, a fun spot with good vibes and solid food!

Angela Foust

It was very busy comparing it to our other go to the atmosphere was lacking. However the gluten free pancakes were great and the omelet was stuffed full. The service was great from the hostess to the server.

Donna Brown (Donna Jo)

We were quite surprised since the reviews were so low, yet the food was very fresh, properly prepared, very flavorful and they have a lot of Gluten Free options. The house salad is a proper salad and not just a bowl of lettuce and tomatoes like some places. The lettuce was very crisp and fresh. It also had 1/2 a deviled egg on top, with pickled onions, cheese, cucumbers and huge slice baby bella mushrooms that were very fresh. All dressings are house made. The key lime pie is also house made and you can tell it. It is very, very good Service was excellent and friendly and bathrooms were clean.

Evan Brusilow

Pizzas prepared & topped well. 2 topping lg for 8.95 was a deal ... Gluten free only comes in 12" size. First time i ever ordered GF ... pleasantly surprised!

Nicole Gause

The pizza is great! We had a regular crust and gluten free bbq chicken pizza. Both were outstanding!

Jessica A

The pizza at Bubba’s is delicious. I’m gluten free and Bubba’s Pizza has some of the best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had. While I was in Panama City, I went to Bubba’s everyday because it served delicious quality pizza 🍕. I tried the She Crab pizza, the spicy sweet pizza, and the pesto chicken and artichoke heart pizza. All were amazing, but the pesto chicken and artichoke heart pizza was my favorite !❤️

Elite Spray Tan

I absolutely LOVE cava! As the owner of a mobile spray tan company, I am constantly on the go. This is the perfect place to grab a quick bite. I am gluten free, so I greatly appreciate the larger variety of gluten free options available. The ingredients are fresh and flavorful, and I love the fact I can customize my own bowl. The lemon herb tahini dressing is delicious. I highly recommend adding the whipped feta as well, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu! The friendly, hardworking staff set the scene for a pleasant, laid-back atmosphere. Lamar in particular takes pride in his work and takes care of his guests. Thank you Lamar for your wonderful service!

David Coughlin

We were a party of 4, one celiac requiring gluten friendly, so based on reviews, we chose O'Brady's as they advertise gluten free fries done in a separate fryer and they do have a specific gluten free menu. Burgers being a key item of their menu we wrongly assumed they would offer gluten free buns (ok to upcharge for them) to enjoy the burgers, The evening we were there (Feb 12) they only had curly fries which are battered, not gluten free, and no gluten free bun so my great expectation of a delicious burger meal was not to be here. So I settled for the grilled shrimp, rice and broccoli. Shrimp were hot and adequate flavor at best, rice was only warm and broccoli was cold. I can not recommend. Friend ordered the burger special, specifically asked for well done, no pink. It came light pink and only warm, curly fries were barely warm. She could not eat it after one bite, sent it back and settled for nothing, appetite lost. That meal was not charged to us. Two others had the salmon and thoroughly enjoyed the salmon (gave the 2 stars) it was hot, but the rice and curly fries were just warm. Wait staff was great, but the kitchen needs some attention. Two of us wore flip flops which were sticking to the floor, time to mop it up. Our high opinion based on reviews going in were highly disappointed in reality. We will not be back.

Joelle Boutwell

Excellent service with smiles and friendly employees! ALTANZUL was smiling the moment I walked in and was very accommodating with my gluten allergy! Definitely a much better experience than the Panama City location.

Dr. Kalah Regis

Best place to go after an all day beach day if you want to want some good crab legs ! Our server was the bomb ! His name was Tyler ! Super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu ! Checked on us and updated us frequently ! Really good service and the crab as so good ! Def. Worth it ! Even if you have dietary restrictions! Tyler was knowledgeable as well regarding gluten sensitivities ! Perfect place for the whole family ! 🙂

Danny Pointer
