Gluten-Free Restaurants near Mill Bay, BC

“Stopped in on our way home to Nanaimo from Victoria. Very cool little ice cream truck in the parking lot near the Thrifty Foods. We had a couple of sundaes. The Strawberry one was very good, but the Black Forest one was amazing. The ice cream is vegan but you would never know. It didn’t have a strong coconut flavour which I do not care for. The prices were reasonable, comparable to other home made ice cream shops. There is a nice shaded seating area and you would never know you are in a parking lot. We will be back when passing though.“

“Went here for the first time today and it will be our new go-to stop! I love that they carry a full selection of Blume products. Great coffee, great food, clean and spacious, and friendly atmosphere.“

“We pulled off the highway to get coffee and fell in love with this little coffee shop, great coffee, baked goods, and lunch items. All delicious!! The rustic atmosphere, grass courtyard, and fun & friendly service all made it a perfect stop. Highly recommend visiting Rusticana Coffee :)“

“There was some confusion regarding the service. We waited at our table for about 15 to 20 minutes to be waited on by the staff. Other than that, the waitress that did wait on us finally, was attentive and efficient. We enjoyed our tea very much.“

“Although I am not exactly the target audience for an English Tea room, I have to say that Butchart far exceeded any expectations! Although we have been to the Gardens many times over the last 4 decades, this is the first time that my wife suggested that we take “High Tea” before our stroll through the amazing gardens... And of course it proved to be a wonderful idea as I relished every bite and sip (we also had the 3-glass “taster” which paired with the food nicely)... I will absolutely be taking tea on our next visit!“

“Great service and eats at this little local jewel.“

“As a SERIOUS Ice Cream 'addicted' person... I can honestly attest to the quality of the ice cream (Non Black Licorice' being my GO TO pretty much EVERY day!!.. to die for flavour!! Totally in love with Lizzy and Dave and the kids too! Amazing Family business. Can't wait to be the 'taste tester' for the new recipe!! <3“

“Prime cuts Breakfast was Amazing!“

“was recommended to come here by a friend and it certainly was NOT a disappointment. good food and good service!! and the JAM yummy!!!“

“Staff not friendly, I had at least 3 staff on separate occasions mention tourists and 'not knowing the routine'. Don't know why I keep going back there. Coffee also not good.“

“A mixture of performance art, cafe, organic food, and stirred with a wand of mystical indifference. The owner is a bit challenging and she might serve you or might not, it's kind of like getting an instant tarot reading from your hippy barista. If she is happy she is kind and you shall be served, if she is moody well then it's performance art. The drinks are really good, excellent even. The food is excellent and mostly confectionery and has lovely spices. I am a repeat customer and she even gives me the evil eye from time to time, but she then comes around and does make a wonderful beverage. The rock salt nextdoor has the worst coffee, chai, and is terrible so ya know there are limited options. It's not personal...it's just coffee...Dietary restrictions: Lots of dairy free and gluten-free alternatives.“

“I have a son with multiple severe food allergies so we are a bit of a pain when we order food from restaurants. I cannot say enough good things about the Duncan White Spot. They are always SO accommodating with finding food options that are safe for my son. Many (if not all) of their staff are familiar with how carefully food allergies need to be handled. As a parent of a child with allergies, it is a HUGE relief to find a place that you know your child can eat at safely. This White Spot has, and will continue to be, our go to place when we want too eat out as a family.“
