I get so jealous of my family eating all the cupcakes and fresh baked goods I use to enjoy. Once I developed this food sensitivity it was almost impossible to find ready-made pastries. I love this shop, and the service is wonderful. 10/10 recommend.Dietary restrictions: I'm gluten free.

It’s a blessing that this place exists for gluten free dietary needs. Loved the banana nut cake, very moist with earthy taste. Cinnamon bun was awesome. my family member didn’t enjoy the carrot cake though. Bread was good. Will revisit for sure.

Love this place! The staff is so friendly and kind. The food is so good even my boyfriend who doesn’t have any food allergies loves their products. The bagels were exactly what I’ve been missing since I was diagnosed with a gluten allergy. I buy three packs at a time ?

Super small shop, but there was a little art corner which made it feel and the cashier was incredibly patient while my mom, kid, and I tried to make up our minds and kept adding to the order! Everything was clearly labeled with Soy Free, Nut Free, etc, so it was so easy to know what I could order. The food was incredible! We got cinnamon rolls, a chocolate cake roll, s'mores bar, and biscuits. Worth every cent, and they were very reasonably priced! As someone who has been home baking Gluten free, vegan, and soy free I know how pricey it can get to eat/bake tasty food like this, so I'm even more grateful Rise Bakery exists!!

I had placed a special order for a friend's baby shower of gf/vegan donuts. I had asked for a gender neutral color on the cookies (green, purple, yellow) and ended up with a box of pink donuts. This was a bit embarrassing, but thankfully she was able to laugh it off. I also ordered a cake for the party, which was a bit bland in flavor and super expensive for the size of it.

I absolutely love this place!! It's a good thing I don't live too close - I'd have to put myself on a schedule for how often I could purchase from Rise. First, it was my first time visit but it will not be last. I didn't catch the employee's name, but his service was stellar!! He answered my questions and was super personable. It's a pickup and go place so don't expect to sit down. You can sample your goodies in the car though ok the way home :-) Everything is gluten-free and they have several vegan options as well. The pumpkin roll was amazing - light and a great meld of the harvest flavors. The buttermilk biscuits were really good - they do break up a little, but who cares, it's a biscuit!!! The cupcakes - I tried so many - red velvet, cookies and cream, and that strawberry lemonade oh my goodness! All were moist, but that strawberry lemonade was amazing!!! The tiramisu was good; I wanted to try it since I've only had it at a restaurant. The lemon bar and pumpkin cheesecake were delicious!! I'm going to try and make my own version of that lemon bar real soon.You definitely have to visit this amazing bakery next time you're in NoVA - your stomach will thank me!!!

This place is really great! A gluten-free bakery. Now I am a very fit person so having a little bit of sugar and no wheat felt a little bit. Customer service was awesome and just enough there to enjoy. Make sure you have the biscuit and the carrot cupcake.

So excited to find this vegan bakery right here in my neighborhood. The service was great, super informative and helpful. I got one of each vegan cupcake and they were all delicious. I bought the vegan bread as well. It was the best textured vegan bread I've tried. I will definitely shop there again!Wheelchair accessibility: so rare to find rampsDietary restrictions: nut free & vegan
Absolutely delicious. Gluten-free and vegan options. Everything I have tried has been amazing. Staff is always so warm and polite.

I was visiting Virginia for the first time and as a traveler w/ gluten sensitivity, this was one of the places I really wanted to go! I checked the website and had list of things I was planning on buying but because of the thunderstorm, I couldn't come until the last day. I came right before heading to the airport and was told that most things were sold out by 10:30! He said things sell out really fast especially the day after it rains. Wow! Didn't know that they were that popular! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to drive to the Washington DC location so I chose the CHEESECAKE BROWNIE. I saw bags of bread and tiramisu as well but just couldn't take them with me on the plane.... :( I handed him my money and he said it's ok and didn't charge me... That is so sweet! It was worth coming all the way from California! :)As for the Cheesecake brownie... it was super moist and really really good! I will definitely get it again! No wonder everything sold out quickly...You can't tell it's GF and Non-GF people will also enjoy this for sure. When I visit Virginia again, I will come straight from the airport so I have days to try out different things. If you plan to stop by, make sure to come early so you have lots of options to chose from! Wish they were in California... thank you and I will definitely come again! :)FYI: They also have parking!

Amazing Gluten free bakery!!! Their ham and cheese croissants were the best I've ever had. They had vegan options and everything was labeled, so it was easy to find something for various dietary restrictions.

For a gluten tolerant person the carrot cake wasn't as bad as I thought it might be. My coworkers and I got a cake for our boss that has allergies for a lot of things (dairy, gluten, egg, vinegar).The icing was deliciously sweet. The cake it's self has that gluten free taste. It left a gritty feel of whatever grain was used in my mouth, but had good flavor. Surprisingly it tasted better after sitting for almost two days in a ziploc bag. The icing seemed a little less sweet. If I had to get a allergen free cake I'd go back to Rise Bakery.
