Benefit Your Life Bakery & Cafe

We came in 30 minutes before closing. All of our food was great! We had sandwiches, quiche, s’mores cupcake, & bought a brownie to take home.

My boyfriend and I went here on our last day of vacation. We tried a few of the items, they were out of breakfast items at 11:30am, so we just got items from the case. We tried the gf sausage cheddar scones, and didn’t really like them because they were very dry and floury, but i’m sure they were better fresh. My boyfriend really loved the gf blueberry donut, and I tried the gf cream cheese cinnamon roll and it was amazing. I totally recommend going here because they have a great variety of gluten-free items. The service could be a little better as the woman that took our order kept turning and walking away while we were ordering and was a little rude. Other than that, the food was delicious and the bakery was very clean and organized.

I was in town for one night and was very happy to have found this place! Ordered a custom panini and cinnamon roll. Both were delicious. They have a large case of baked goods with allergen markings as well as a small grocery/ take and bake section. Highly recommend.

So thankful to have a dedicated GF bakery in my city. While they have a lot of tasty items, not everything is a winner. Love the following: focaccia (only available on Fridays or as a breakfast sandwich on Saturday). Paleo Chicken Salad, Key lime pie, lemon bars, and lemon frosted sugar cookies, Cupcakes. The donuts and cinnamon rolls are two things I normally gravitate toward but their versions aren’t my favorite. I love how the items are marked dairy, egg, nut free etc. They have standard items they offer everyday, which includes a few paleo treats and then they rotate in additional choices daily. You can also place custom orders.

I love this place. They always have something new to try. I really appreciate they have everything labeled for vegan, dairy free, paleo, keto, nut free, and more. It makes it easy to order and know exactly which things to get. I also appreciate they have sandwiches, so can have lunch and a snack. I come here every time I come to Knoxville. It’s by far the best gluten free bakery I have been to.

Updated review: I purchased an assortment of items for my friends and their kids so we got to sample a lot! My favorites were the cinnamon roll and the cake pops. Everyone else enjoyed their sweets, though a couple items were a little dry.

I love that they have everything labeled with other common allergens and had gf products along the walls for sale as well. I tried two different quiches, a cupcake, and a cookie sandwich and was very happy with all my food.

Drove an hour and a half to come try this place… WOW! The food was incredible. I sampled the sausage egg and cheese biscuit, cinnamon roll and pineapple upside down cake.

To start, The biscuits were incredible! They were as close as I’ve had to a gluten containing biscuit. They held together well and had great flavor.

The cinnamon roll is a must-get item! It tastes just like your favorite gluten containing cinnamon roll - texture, consistency and all! Just get it.

Best of all, I didn’t get one bit sick. I’m highly sensitive to even the smallest dose of cross contamination - nothing. Eat here with confidence!

Completely gluten-free bakery & sit down counter service also. They have fresh breakfast with biscuit sandwiches on Saturday only. A variety of lunch salad & panini options are available along with quiche & other pre-made items that can be heated by them. There is an extensive smoothie menu that can be customized and multiple freezers with pre-made items and shelves with gluten-free items that are always impossible to find. Seasonally they offer Thanksgiving menu for pre-order. The food was delicious with 0% chance of cross-contamination!

I stopped by on my cross-country trip and got a curry chicken sandwich. The gluten free bread was ok. It was toasted, not just warmed, and the chicken curry was VERY mild bordering on unseasoned and a bit sweet for my preference. The cinnamon rolls looked amazing, but as a diabetic, they're not something I could eat! There is a small area outside where you could eat, but it's not set up as an outside restaurant.

Amazing! The bacon, egg and cheese biscuit was so good!!! The quiche was delicious. The pumpkin spice latte cupcake and pineapple upside down cake was very moist. As amazing as everything was, my favorite thing was the cookie bar with cream cheese top. I’m not really sure what it was called but it was so good!!! I came to Knoxville for Labor Day weekend and was so disappointed to see they were closed Sunday and Monday. I’ll definitely be back!!!

Stopped by here on my way through Knoxville after getting gas. What a wonderful spot. Everything is marked to show vegan, dairy free, paleo, etc. Had a panini and a cinnamon sugar donut that was amazing. Also has a small grocery section with frozen and shelf stable foods. Will definitely stop by again when coming through town.

I got three meals here because it was near a hike I was doing. Came in and for a meat quiche for breakfast. Then to go ham panini. Tasted good but could have used more ham. Came back and got tuna salad sandwich for dinner. Very yummy. Has one of the best cinnamon rolls with glaze that I have ever had. Also had a cherry oat cake bar which was amazing and full of flavor. The berry scone was huge and good even though I didn’t have a microwave to warm it up the next day. The cranberry orange muffin was huge and the best gf muffin I have ever had. They ran out of key lime pie and donuts. Everything was excellent. Saturday mornings they have biscuit breakfast sandwiches which I did not get to try.

The selection of baked goods is always incredible, and I love that they have other fun breakfast items on Saturdays as well. It’s one of the best gluten-free bakeries we have ever been to. I also love that they have a little “market” area where you can buy other pre-packaged gluten-free items and mixes that are sometimes hard to find. You won’t be disappointed by this place!
