All I can say is YUM & I’m already planning my next meal here 🤌🏻 VERY exciting to see an artisanal sandwich/pizza place that’s actually celiac safe; if you appreciate this kind of thing you know just how rare it is to find. I live in Sydney, Australia & have yet to find a dedicated gf place of this calibre.

My partner got the Reuben sandwich and I got the roasted pepper, pickled artichoke, pesto & cheese as a veggie sandwich option (it’s usually a pizza) which used locally made artisan cheese. Bursting with flavour, the bread held up & was super tasty.

Someone on another review complained about the prices. I’m a fermented foods maker myself and using local, quality ingredients isn’t cheap but more importantly, fermented foods are a labour of love that take days or even weeks to make. Hence the name of the place. If you want cheap fast food, this isn’t it. But if you want to indulge in heart warming eats where each ingredient has been thoughtfully selected or made, this is your spot. Love that they offer gf sourdough workshops too! SO sad I can’t attend, if I lived here this would be my go to 🍞

Dined in 10/11/22. Dedicated GF facility so you can trust you’re in good hands especially if you’re a celiac. My one critique is the lack of vegetarian options, but the food and service are exceptional.

I love The Art of Slow Food! They have delicious, celiac safe pizza and sandwiches. Their cinnamon rolls are soooo good! But you have to get there early, they sell out. 100% the best gluten free place in Victoria.

Everything is gluten free. That’s about where the good ends. The prices are high, the pizza was so burnt I couldn’t believe they served it, and the cinnamon roll was one of the grossest things I’ve ever eaten.

Dedicated gluten free which is great but the cinnamon sourdough buns tasted pretty bad, not a fan of the combination. I think you either love them or hate them. Breads are decent but all have the same sourdough taste which is very strong. Pretty expensive too.
