Had a good variety of vegan/gf options. I personally didn’t like how dry the desserts were. I also got the chili and it felt like it was lacking. The whoopie pie was very good though!

A whole case of gf pastries! And everything is vegan. We came here twice on our trip. The cookies were amazing, the Whoopi pie was good, but I would pass on the brownies.

I had a really good muffin and cookie! Don’t bother getting anything on the GF bread though. It’s scary dry and made my sandwich honestly inedible - had to chew each bite for like 2 minutes.

Super amazing gluten-free food (and vegan too!). Separate bakery case for GF items, great selection, delicious homemade GF bread. Highly recommend the brownie—it’s to die for! Great staff—very knowledgeable and careful. Just opened up indoor seating this week. Go here, celiacs—you’ll love it!

I purchased a variety of gluten free baked items to take home and keep in the fridge for folks to eat when they wanted. It was all delicious, whether the same day or 2 days later. The bars were excellent! Friendly service and knowledgeable staff. It’s good to have this bakery in town.

So nice to have a gluten free bakery in town. Scones were a little dry, but I’m not picky when I can eat a scone! I would definitely recommend for your sweet tooth in Salem!

There were many pastry options and most sandwiches could be made gluten free. Unfortunately everything that we tried there was very dry and flavorless.

Pastries are all displayed on the same counter but on different trays and are very clearly marked as GF, vegan, GF & vegan, containing nuts, etc.

Most items are GF, many items are both GF & vegan! They have great coffee with many different milk alternatives. They usually have a soup option which is almost always GF and vegan. The food has always been fantastic. They do not use preservatives, so definitely best eaten the day you buy it! Always very fresh.

The staff are great and so knowledgeable about what’s in everything. For example, if something is labeled as containing nuts, they know exactly what nuts are in it.

I nima tested a chocolate cookie and pumpkin chili - both smily faces! I’m sure there is a chance of cross contamination but in these two instances looks good.

Food was good, especially the desserts and GF options were available, even though everything is in the same display, so chances of cross contamination if you ask me. Staff could be more welcoming, one of the staff girl could learn a thing or two about good customer facing behaviour...

After being diagnosed with gluten intolerance, I was really sad because I figured I'd have a hard time finding restaurants. (I'm also a dairy-free pescetarian who mostly eats like a dairy-free vegetarian.) Jodi Bee's is just awesome! I haven't tried the GF baked goods yet, but I love getting lunch here with the gluten free bread. It's the only GF bread I like! If you're into savory sandwiches and have a savory tooth like me, definitely check out their cornmeal-encrusted tempeh selections. I love the buffalo sandwich with cashew based cheese and my fiance, a dairy eater, thought his buffalo mozzerella on his Caprese sandwich was real mozzerella and was stunned to find out that it was vegan mozz. I've never gotten sick eating here and the staff takes allergies and intolerances seriously. Love this place!

I ate lunch there today. The chickpea sandwich was tasty. The bread looked not so great but tasted delicious, which was a nice surprise. The chocolate chip and sea salt cookie was legitimately one of the best cookies I’ve ever had. My lunch companion (non-GF) couldn’t believe it was gluten free.

Ordered a gluten free cake and got sick. Owner swears she made my cake GF but I think she mixed my order up. Beware if you order here as their service is sloppy.

Owner Response


Justin,

We have never had an issue with a customer getting ill from our gluten-free food so I am a bit confused by your review. You stated that I swore to you that I made your cake gluten free but since I have never spoken with you or anyone else about a cake that they doubted was gluten free, I can't help but wonder if perhaps you are the one mistaken. I'd ask that you first confirm that you actually ordered the cake from this bakery and If you did indeed order a cake from me that you had an issue with, please email the bakery directly so I can address it. Either way, I would request that you update this review so it is factual.

Delicious vegan pumpkin chili! Corn bread was ok. Only complaint: while they have soy free/nut free markers indicated on their menu legend, they don't seem to mark the items that actually are soy or nut free. Takes some digging, but they will get the answers for the people with fun, weirdo sensitivities beyond gluten ;)
