As a commercial gluten-free baker, I’m very discerning about GF spots — and Guncles on Government Street absolutely blew me away. I’m from Mobile and had heard from family and friends that I had to visit next time I was home. While in town with my kids for a high school volleyball tournament, we had some time between matches so I drove over to sample their goods. Wow. Their Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Toffee Cookie is possibly the best cookie I’ve ever eaten — not just the best gluten-free cookie, but the best cookie, period. Perfect texture, rich flavor, and just the right balance of chocolate and toffee. The owner-operators are warm and clearly passionate; you can see their work ethic and creativity poured into everything they make. The bakery feels cared-for and the products reflect that pride. If you’re in Mobile and love great baked goods (especially GF), stop by Guncles — you won’t be disappointed. Highly recommended.
We were visiting family who recommended we check out Guncles and are so glad we did! The variety of treats was impressive (and tasty!) and we left with a loaf of sandwich bread to use for a trip to the beach. The bread was dense, but tasty with a nice open crumb. It toasted extremely well and made a top notch grilled cheese. Our very picky non-GF kids used it to make peanut butter sandwiches that they actually ate, which is about as high a compliment as I can give!
The hospitality was nothing short of excellent. The cashier walked us through each item on the menu individually and the baker himself came out and checked to see how we liked the savory cheddar biscuits and cinnamon roll (they’re both a must-try!). We also took whoopie pies with us to go and I honestly can’t believe they’re gluten free - they were flawless.
The shop was clean and efficient, but not much seating, so ideally plan to pick up and head to one of the gorgeous parks nearby.

The hospitality at Guncles is next to none! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted so warmly, and that same warmth carried through the entire visit. The cinnamon rolls and cheddar herb biscuits were absolutely outstanding, and the lemon cake, red velvet, and pumpkin cream cookies were all incredible treats. We also brought home a loaf of bread. The flavor was amazing, though it was a bit dense. I’m still on the hunt for that perfectly light and fluffy gluten-free loaf, but this one was still delicious. All in all, an amazing experience with food and service that makes you want to come back again and again (if only I lived in Alabama, thank goodness they ship!).

Wow. Extremely impressed. My husband surprised me with some treats this weekend for our anniversary and everything is incredible. I just went gluten free this past year and gf or not these are some of the best pastries I’ve had in a LONG time and I’m pretty picky about desserts. Not dense at all, not too sweet, all around wonderful. We tried the cinnamon rolls, mini chocolate cake with vanilla frosting, and the red velvet cookie sandwich. (Not sure of the names since my husband picked them out and I wasn’t there) but everything exceeded my expectations. Will definitely be going back!!

Staff were so incredibly nice and the food is PERFECT! We don’t have dedicated gf bakeries in north Mississippi so this was like heaven to me 😊 I haven’t had a cinnamon roll in 10+ years so I was so excited.
Omg. For real omg. Prices may seem high, but I have been baking gluten free for years and I can tell you it's expensive and honestly their prices are awesome based on the product. They must have really tested their recipes because again OMG! so good!!! Flavor and texture are spot on it possibly better than normal. It makes me want to move here, so I can come daily. Instead I settled for a bag full of goods. Even my picky mom is impressed and mmming. The quality and deliciousness of the food overshadowed everything else, but it should mentioned that the interior was nice and comfortable and interesting to look at. The lady behind the counter was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. She was also very friendly. Go early because they were running out 3 hours before closing.
This place is amazing! The food is amazing! The people are amazing! It's the perfect spot! Super kind, tastes amazing. I would not be able to tell you it was gluten free if I did not know! I will be back, glad this is in the area!
My family and I were blown away by how amazing their baked goods were! Drove for an hour and a half out of our way while on vacation to try them. Cannot recommend them high enough. Fantastic customer service as well.

I’ve been gluten-free for over a decade, and now our 6-year-old is too—which makes finding kid-friendly GF food a real challenge. We’re from Florida and were driving to New Orleans when my husband discovered Guncles. He was so excited about it that we planned our overnight stop just so we could eat there—and wow, was it worth it!
When I say it was the best cinnamon roll I’ve ever had, I’m not exaggerating. We also grabbed some goodies to take with us: the cheddar biscuits (amazing!), the chocolate and spiced fig cake (so delicious), chocolate chip cookies (I want to buy more to give as gifts!), and their regular biscuits—which totally hit the spot.
I was so impressed. But beyond the incredible food, the owners and staff were kind, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do. It’s rare to find a place with both outstanding gluten-free treats and such heart behind it.
It was so good, we’re actually trying to swing by again today before they close to grab more to take home for ourselves and our friends!
