The Coop | Bakehouse & Pantry

Found this while searching for a gluten free restaurant for our trip to the beach. It is a quaint cafe in a strip mall with decent free parking. We were able to park directly in front no issues. The food is as promised delicious. We travelled from out of town about a little over an hour away with traffic. It was definitely worth the drive. Needless to say we went all out for the venture. Had a side salad and quiche. Quiche was excellent flaky crust. Breakfast sandwich and a cinnamon roll. My non Gf husband really liked it as well. I would definitely recommend The Coop. We went home with iced cut out cookies, cinnamon bread and rosemary bread and of course another cinnamon roll. Yum. When do we as gluten free ever get to just order whatever we want on the menu! Never!!!! I would definitely say come near or far to try this place. Cozy and coffee shop style feel. Design district shopping walking distance for after. Be mindful of the hours. Picture posted. It does conflict on online platforms.

Gluten free haven. The coop provides some of the best textures and flavor of gluten free bread I’ve ever had. Their gluten free dinner rolls are one of the best I’ve ever had. They’re comprable to a Michelin star Italian restraint in Tokyo. Get the dinner rolls, wow!! Texture like that on a roll is an art! The ambiance is clean and stylish and the service is efficient and friendly. I went five days in a row and my gluten eating family also loved it! I like that they mindfully source ingredients. I also recommend the cinnamon raisin bread, travels well frozen, as well as all breakfast sandwiches— that’s what kept me coming back!

Coop in Solana Beach is an absolute gem. It’s just a short walk from the train station and close to the freeway, but it feels like a little neighborhood secret. The pastries and food dishes are fantastic – fresh, creative, and super satisfying. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality you get. The entire restaurant is completely gluten-free, but you honestly wouldn’t know it from the taste. If you don’t normally eat gluten-free, you’ll probably like the food even more because it’s so well done – you just feel good after eating there. On top of that, the staff is very, very friendly and welcoming. They really seem to care about the customers and the experience. Overall, Coop is well worth a visit (or many). I’m already looking forward to going back.

Best Gluten Free shop in the world! Everything they do here is fantastic. Their different types of bread, muffins, pies, cookies etc are amazing! Gluten Freedom makes being GF so easy.

All the food and coffee are crafted intentionally and with great joy! It's literally the best gluten free products I have had, in a great atmosphere, near the beach! I've had muffins, cake, pie, panini and their delicious Kona Coffee. Olivia and all the staff are kind and welcoming!
