Review
One baker is coeliac. She told me she bakes the gf stuff before everything else with separate utensils etc. The gf choice was a bit limited (but could be time of the day) but really really nice. And apparently the non-gf pies are excellent.

Review
Gluten-free pies, quiches, and desserts. All are stored safely and clearly marked. They have separate tongs to get them out of the case. Definitely let them heat up your pie, though.
The lamington was really good too!

Such a lovely treat to stumble upon. I’ve watched my partner eat pies our whole trip so was delighted to finally try one myself. The pies are quite small and would recommend getting two. I tried the cheese and mince pie which was so delish and the pork and apple sauce pie. This was yummy and reminded me more of an apple tart than a pie.
They had loads of other gf treat’s available. also tried the GF eclair which was amazing!! Highly recommend checking this place out. But be prepared to queue.

We rang ahead and ordered GF pies. Absolutely worth the stop.
Order 2 per person each if you are hungry though. They are only small.

All gluten free items are on the top shelf, staff use separate tongs and prices arent hiked up like everywhere else. Definitely recommend!
