BB's is consistently exceptional. I have never had anything short of an amazing experience at this restaurant. The food is always outstanding, with each dish hitting the mark. The service is top-notch, and the atmosphere creates the perfect setting for a delightful brunch, lunch, or dinner experience. Let's talk about their desserts – they are absolute dream-inducers. On two separate Sundays, I invited friends to join me for lunch after Sunday service, introducing them to BB's for the first time. Without fail, each person left impressed and became a lifelong customer. Even I wonder if I'll be included in their return visits, as BB's continues to live up to its reputation. As someone who requires gluten-free options, I am delighted that BB's offers an array of choices for me. On this visit, I relished the warm goat salad without the croutons, a truly delicious dish. In the past, I have also enjoyed their dangerously good gluten-free pizza. But the highlight was the GF caramel brownie, served with a generous scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. I attempted to practice self-control and only eat half, but the treat was too irresistible to resist. Before I knew it, I had devoured the entire bowl. So, a piece of advice: if you plan to indulge in their desserts, do so with caution. One bite or half of a serving will surely not be enough once you start. In addition to their delectable menu, BB's boasts a full bar and a skilled bartender who concocts drinks that are simply exceptional. The overall experience at BB's is perfect for a girls' night out, a romantic date night, or even a small party celebration. Just be mindful of indulging too much, as stopping yourself from eating the entire dessert might prove to be a challenge. I highly recommend BB's as a dining destination. The consistently great food, excellent service, and overall ambiance make it an ideal choice for any occasion. But I must warn you, proceed with caution – the temptations at BB's can be quite irresistible!

I love all the vegan gluten free and grain free options

I came to eat with my granddaughter. I asked about Gluten Free options and the cashier said, “Well, we have a gluten free bun.” I told her it was an “allergy” because that’s how the food industry understands Celiac. I asked about a dedicated fryer for fries and she said, “Well put fries and onion rings in it, so is that bad?” So… if your Celiac or sensitive Gluten Intolerant, please know there is a risk and the staff is unhelpful. I also ordered a Kids Junior Cheesburger, and out came a grilled cheese. I looked at the receipt and she rang it up wrong, so I’m not saying anything since my granddaughter seems to be ok and isn’t complaining. Overall, very disappointing and I won’t be back.

My husband who has celiac had lots of gluten free options. He had the Chicken and Cashew as well as Tom Kha soup. Also had gluten free tamari for him. Food & service were great!

We came here after a 5k for a group brunch. I have Celiac Disease, and always struggle to find decent options at restaurants. The menu had so many gluten free options! And even when I didn't realize an option existed for a certain dish, the server made sure I knew I could sub GF toast, or other options. The food was great, the cold brew coffee was delicious, and I can't wait to come back.

Great place to have lunch or just a snack. They even have gluten-free options.

Melissa Baron

Meal prepping is very convenient for me. An added plus is that the meals are gluten and dairy free. The portions are sized well and what I love the most is that the calories are listed on the labels, no need to guess how much calories you are consuming.

New in town and pleased to find this restaurant that has Gluten free options. I'll be back to try them all. Server Chloe was awesome.

Sonya Burroughs

Always good! They also have gluten free bread and it's not the wimpy small kind either. I went from getting a salad and being like eh, to getting a Turkey pesto grilled cheese and it made my day! Thank you for ordering the good bread.

Jade was able to provide my family with gluten free and dairy free cookies that were HUGE. I've never had gluten free cookies that were made this well! Hard to describe in words but a must try to see for yourself!! We also had a custom order of gluten free and dairy free ice cream sandwiches that were so delicious and again HUGE. My daughter and I finished ours however, my son had to put half up for later. I think the fact that she and her family have food allergies she has a true passion for helping others with food allergies. She understands the importance of food allergies and I trust that she would keep me and my family safe from cross contamination. Highly recommend!!

Darlene Deffes

Clean and well organized. Lots of gluten free items and delicious cheeses.

Sabrina Costa

Dairy free/gluten free options which are clearly marked! And tastes amazing! Very decadent ice cream. Also, gluten free cones!

My husband and I celebrated our 18th anniversary here. We had the shrimp, crab, avocado, and mango, stack which was fresh and a pretty large appetizer for 2. I have a gluten allergy and the were able to accommodate me by by using a different, but GF, cracker; although it may have been a chip... We chose the 10oz prime rib to share, which they brought out a second plate for us to divide our portions. We had side salads, my husband had the mashed potatoes, and we ordered the sizzling mushrooms to top it all off. We went against the salad bar due to the expense of it, but walked by to check it out as we walked out. After seeing it, we were glad we went the wa6 we did. It did not look worth the expense, nor would we have kept going back for more. Overall, it was a nice and satisfying meal. A lovely place to celebrate our anniversary.

We are having the best night out celebrating my future sister in law as a bride to be!!!! THEY HAVE GLUTEN FREE! And they are so nice! Our waitress, Cynthia, has been so helpful and kind, she really elevated our experience! We will return!!

Anina Green

Wonderful little place. I ordered the lamb burger with gluten free bun. The cashier checked with the cook to make sure the bun was available, he said it wasn't and offered gluten-free bread. I agreed. The owner was sitting in a meeting just behind us and said, 'let me go look I think I saw some.' Sure enough! He took the time to find them even though I had agreed to the other!!! The cashier was very sweet and explained the Hebrew language on a juice can. I am very glad I looked up this vegan friendly restaurant!!!

Bethany MendozaFields

Chill place and vibe with delicious GLUTEN FREE KAISER ROLLS!!! I was so excited to see GF bread as an option and also 3 options of cider. They also have an impossible burger if you'd prefer that over beef. Absolutely delicious

Paige Voghel

Really good sandwiches and deli foods. They even have gluten free bread! Super nice for lunch, if you are in a rush for lunch (30 mintues or less) order take out because they can sometimes be busy and take a longer than fast food places during the lunch rush but totally worth it.

Jacqueline Gray

This place is always PACKED on the weekends but it's well worth it! I highly recommend ordering ahead and picking up. This is my fave cookie spot for my gluten free/dairy free sweets!

Erin Huff

Great coffee and food! Vegan and Gluten Free options aswell

Heather Hendrickson

Food was good and the employees were very helpful. I visited this restaurant looking for a gluten free meal. They had several items to choose from, although mostly salads. Husband had the Cuban sandwich which he said was really good.

Izak Pornovets

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Fizzies and Fare, nestled within the enchanting Sweet Pete's candy store. The addition of a gluten-free bun option showcased their commitment to inclusivity, and the overall experience, surrounded by sweets, was simply delightful. A perfect blend of savory and sweet in a charming setting!

Lauren Powell

They have everything I loved about the Riverside location and more! I stick with a gluten free diet and I've always been able to find a variety of options. Sometimes that means just protein + leafy greens and ditching the rolls. My 4 year old LOVED getting to assemble their own sandwich from the board. While we waited for the food we wandered around the market & florist which was filled with amazing goodies. We ended up getting a funky fall centerpiece of dried stems, it will last for seasons to come if I store it carefully. Ciera was at the register and was a great help while ordering and made the whole experience very pleasant & fun.

The food was delicious! I had the vegetarian plate with yellow rice and tostones. Their yuca fries were really good too. My friend had the garlic shrimp and he loved it. They play a nice mix of Spanish music. The DJ is really good and he sings as well. Great, welcoming atmosphere. The menu is in both Spanish and English. Plenty of both vegan and vegetarian options and gluten free as well. I have a pretty bad intolerance and I did not get sick with the items I ordered. The fresh guava juice was also delicious. It's definitely the best Puerto Rican food in all of NE FL and I've tried them all, all the way down to Palm Coast. It's as good as the Puerto Rican food we have in NYC in the little bodegas, cooked by someone's abuelita.
