Review: I am not gluten free, but my significant other is. We’ve been buying Shambala goodies and bread from the Edmonds and Ballard Farmers’ markets for ages and we finally made it into the brick and mortar for lunch today. Great food, friendly service, and a prime location.

Review: I’m in heaven Shambala Bakery and Bistro has such an amazing selection of vegan & gluten free dishes. I have an auto immune disease I control by avoiding gluten, dairy, gmo’s, etc. This is an absolute miracle to find this place. Only thing I wish she would do differently is make all the baked treats sweetened with something other than cane sugar such as maple syrup or coconut sugar.

Review: We visited Shambala Bakery for lunch after touring the nearby Skagit Valley tulip farms, and were thrilled they offer Gluten Free & non-GMO food. They also source food from local farms and makers. There was a huge street fair going on that weekend and 1st street was blocked off, so it was difficult to get to the restaurant due to traffic and limited access. We finally found a parking lot and ended up walking 3 blocks to the restaurant. When we got there, we were hungry! Two in our group got the Fish & Chips, and I tried the Wish & Chips (fried cauliflower instead of fish) and the green salad. I had an iced latte while we waited, and it was good. The service here was friendly and efficient. Everyone loved their food - the fish was line-caught fresh cod and the fries were hand cut and perfectly crunchy. The dipping sauces that came with it were delicious too. The green salad has pickled veggies in it that I didn’t know would be in it, so it wasn’t my favorite … but it was very fresh and healthy tasting. As for the GF baked goods, they looked interesting but I didn’t end up getting anything… The bread loaves were pretty dense and heavy feeling, so if you don’t normally eat gluten free food, it may not be a texture you’d expect or enjoy. Overall, it was a good choice for lunch and I’m glad we found this gluten free bakery in Mount Vernon. 👍 (Note: they do offer guests free Wi-Fi - the password is on a heart-shaped sign hanging by the bread shelf.)

Review: I really hate posting this review, especially since they have so many vegan options, but the baked goods I had from here were the worst I have ever eaten. The cupcakes were extremely gummy and bland, the frosting on top was hard as a rock, the cookies were also rock hard as was the cookie sandwich. As far as the other food, the lentil soup we got was extremely spicy and not listed as such, and the biscuits and gravy was pretty meh. I hope this place steps it's game up because I love the menu, but the taste is worse than the food I ate in the military chow halls.
