Prepare Your Taste Buds for Paradise!
From the moment our family of eighteen vacationers stepped into the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe, we knew we had stumbled upon something truly special. What followed was an experience so delightful, we simply had to return the very next day! This isn't just a cafe; it's a haven of incredible flavors, heartwarming hospitality, and a genuine commitment to the community.
Let's start with the star of the show: the Cheesecakes. Calling them "outstanding" feels like an understatement. Each slice is a creamy, dreamy masterpiece, boasting a perfect balance of rich flavor and delicate texture. From classic favorites to innovative and exciting creations, there's a cheesecake to tantalize every palate. Our large group sampled a wide variety, and every single one was met with enthusiastic praise.
But don't let the name fool you – the Sandwiches here are nothing short of unbelievable! Packed with fresh, high-quality ingredients and crafted with care, these aren't your average breakfast & lunchtime bites. They are substantial, flavorful, and leave you completely satisfied. Whether you're craving a classic deli creation or something a little more adventurous, the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe has you covered.
And for those with a sweet tooth beyond cheesecake, prepare to be delighted by their array of other sweet treats. Each one is a testament to their dedication to quality and deliciousness.
Now, let's talk about the fuel that powers this delightful establishment: the Coffee. It's simply phenomenal. As a dedicated coffee lover, I can wholeheartedly recommend their special house cold brew. It's smooth, rich, and the perfect pick-me-up any time of day. You cannot leave without a "Cheesecake Latte", a house special!
Beyond the exceptional food and drinks, what truly sets the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe apart are the owners. They are, without a doubt, the most wonderful people you could hope to meet. Their warmth and genuine care for their customers create an inviting and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel like part of their family. They clearly pour their hearts and souls into their cafe, and it shines through in every aspect of the experience.
As vacationers, we were particularly touched to learn about their donations of leftover food, dishwashing and laundry, and sundry items to local families. This commitment to their community is truly admirable and speaks volumes about their character. It's heartwarming to support a business that not only provides incredible food but also gives back in such a meaningful way.
The fact that our family of eighteen, with varying tastes and preferences, enjoyed our experience so much that we returned the next morning for breakfast speaks for itself. Their breakfast offerings were just as impressive, setting us up perfectly for another day of our vacation.
Finally, for anyone with dietary restrictions, I must give a special shout-out to their HIGHLY RECOMMENDED CELIAC / GLUTEN FREE ITEMS! It can be a challenge to find delicious and safe gluten-free options, but the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe has truly excelled in this area. Our gluten-free family members were thrilled with the variety and quality of the choices available.
In conclusion, the Cheesecake Cutie & Cafe is more than just a place to eat; it's an experience. From the outstanding cheesecakes and unbelievable sandwiches to the phenomenal coffee and the heartwarming hospitality of the owners, every aspect is top-notch. If you find yourself in the area (and even if you don't!), make the trip. You won't be disappointed. This gem of a cafe is a must-visit, and these "Cheeseheads" from Wisconsin can't wait for our next opportunity to return!

These bagels straight from Brooklyn are PHENOMENAL. Jackie, the owner, is the sweetest person ever that we had to come again the next day for more!!
My sister is gluten-free and Jackie takes her gluten-free protocols very seriously! And my sister said it's the best gluten free bagel she's ever had!!
The thick pieces of ham and turkey (not deli meat either!) was so delicious! Definitely recommend the Hershey's special but be warned it's got a spicy kick!!

We had truly impeccable service on our recent visit. Congrats on hiring such great people!
My food (bacon & eggs) was also great. The bacon, especially, was cooked perfectly and the onions made the potatoes super yummy.
But the reason we had found Victoria's in the first place was because they had vegan waffles on offer. What the website doesn't note is that the vegan waffles are also gluten free, making them less appealing. We'd also not been warned they contained bananas, so were confused by the goopy brown spots throughout. They were not good, and my kiddo didn't eat them. The website also indicated that they'd be served with vegan whipped cream, which they were not (though they did have Earth Balance!)
So in general - if you're going for a "normal" breakfast, then yes! Go! But it doesn't appear to be a good option for vegans.
This small deli, tucked inside a building, offers a gluten-free and safe environment for Celiac disease with gluten-free bread and wraps. Its thoughtful catering to diverse tastes and convenient delivery to the beach make it a standout choice for gluten-free dining.

We stopped by La Creperie on our way out of town and it was a wonderful experience! Joe, our server, took great care of us and was extremely attentive when we shared that several members of our family needed to eat gluten free. The dining area is spacious and bright and there is a corner with Legos and other toys available for children while waiting for food. An easy recommendation for someone looking for breakfast or brunch, as the crepes were utterly delightful, the fruit was perfectly fresh, and the portion sizes were appreciably large.
This cozy cafe offers a welcoming, family-owned vibe with a cute interior that feels like home. The attentive staff are known for their accommodating service to gluten-free needs, ensuring a comfortable and safe dining experience.

I've been here three times in the two weeks I've been on island. Already planning my next visit. Breakfast, lunch and dinner: the food is fabulous. I love the vegetarian options and the gluten free choices. My dining partner says the quiche is killer. (Obviously as it was sold out yesterday) but the frittata was a great substitute. The chef is superb and the hostess delightful. I've dined in and taken out, this place has it dialed. Almost hate to post this as if word gets out, I might have a hard time getting in.

We ordered takeout from Hurricane Hanks last weekend while my brother, sister-in-law, and their four kids were visiting us here on Anna Maria Island—and it was a fantastic experience! Everything was packaged perfectly and still hot when we got it home.
I had the chicken parm, and it was absolutely amazing! The portion was so generous it lasted me three meals, and it was just as delicious each time. The whole family was impressed with their meals—and that’s saying something with four kids in the mix!
A big bonus: my sister-in-law is gluten-free, and Hurricane Hanks had plenty of great options for her to choose from. She really appreciated being able to enjoy a delicious meal without worrying about dietary restrictions.
My husband and I live local and love discovering great spots to support, and this one definitely makes the list. We’ll be back soon to dine in and enjoy the full experience!

You seriously can't top dining on the beach! You get a five course meal, outstanding service, can watch the sunset and really eat on the beach with your toes in the sand! It is a very fancy dining experience. They were accommodating with my food allergies (tree nuts and gluten) and made specific changes to the 5 course meal for me. A date night stop you will never forget!

We had a delightful evening . The atmosphere was delightful
And totally transformed from the morning’s breakfast cafe which is also delicious . pretty linens and table lighting set the mood for a special night. We enjoyed watching and receiving table side serving of the risotto and my Branzino. Highly recommend the grilled Caesar salad . I am Gluten free but found a nice choice of all courses. Our table had four deserts and one was better than the next . Highly recommend n

Made birthday reservations online. Very simple and accommodating.
Arrived and greeted immediately and sat by a polite and friendly staff.
Had mimosas and Bloody Mary drinks. We’ll made and arrived timely.
For brunch we had a Turkey club, lobster frittata, and fish and chips. A good variety of well prepared and delicious food. The sides, gluten free toast and home fries were very tasty.
For desert it was key lime pie, crème brûlée, and a flourless chocolate torte. The deserts were decadent and amazing.
Atmosphere was very nice, staff was helpful and friendly and prices were great for value and taste.
Great morning out.
