Tried this bakery for the first time to pick up sweets for my daughter that eats gluten free.. Tried the peppermint choc cake, the bacon sage scone & the cranberry/ orange scone. My daughter raved about all of it. Staff was friendly & helpful. Great little shop! Only regret is that they did not have any gluten sweets! read more

The first time I ever tried the Grain bakery was at the Snohomish farmers market. They have delicious scones and cakes and brownies. One of my favorites are their savory scones. Whenever we go to the market, they would almost always be sold out. Staff is super friendly, welcoming, and willing to answer any of your questions about their desserts. I've also gone to their shop in downtown Snohomish and pre-ordered desserts and cookies just to make sure they haven't sold out. If you're looking for something delicious and gluten-free, you got a head to Grain. Favorite cake: cream earl gray wild lavender cake Favorite scone: provolone thyme rosemary chive Favorite cookie: signature dark chocolate chunk Favorite macaroon: lemon or raspberry read more

This is for their stand at the Cap Hill farmers market in Seattle. I was really disappointed by my experience, especially since I planned to place a large cake order with them. Long lines are free advertising, and I had a good friend who is gluten-free. Her birthday is coming up, so I've been pumped about exploring gluten-free bakeries. My experience this morning was a gigantic let-down. I was left feeling rushed, taken for granted, and disrespected. I greeted them and asked about what flavor "cake scraps" they had (pieces of cake they sell in a carton). Like everyone else, I had been waiting in line for quite some time at this point. She pointed to another area of their stand and said: "You can go over there and look." After that, I was met with total silence. I decided not to "go look", because it was unclear whether this meant I was going to forfeit my place in line. I didn't know what to say, so I changed the subject to what I was really here for - to buy a couple of slices and ask about advance cake orders. I asked about how to order a cake ahead of time, and she said "You can go online and fill out the form." More terse silence from her. Not even another sentence to spare about days in advance, or even whether this was the spot to pick up. I get that they're busy. But the part that really disturbed me was that there was a group of several people in front of me asking lots of questions for several minutes, and she seemed much more courteous with them than me. Maybe they were regulars. Maybe it was my race. But I was really friendly and felt like I had to do some emotional lifting and small talk to rescue a situation in which somehow I was made to feel like an inconvenience. I'm not looking for an essay-length response to my questions - just some acknowledgment and not being treated like I'm wasting their time, given that I was about to place a pretty substantial order. The girl who was new and working the register was nice though. Also, almost comically, after the lady (the rude one) who was helping me handed me the box, it came apart and fell out of my hands, onto the floor. She had given me a broken box. Fortunately, the cake itself was still inside and didn't touch the pavement. I felt embarrassed, and no apologies or acknowledgement of this incident was made either, even though I was just a foot away from them. I'm taking my business elsewhere - not worth it. There are several other incredible gluten-free bakeries in the area with awesome employees, plus bakeries that will make their orders gluten-free for you. read more

We stumbled on this little while strolling along in Snohomish. I must say, I am typically disappointed when it comes to GF baked treats. Not no more! I had the everything scone and was in heaven with every bite. Thank you for making this shop come true. We will be supporting and marketing it for you with the hopes you get to keep making delicious dreams come true for us GF'ers. Thank you read more

AMAZING! Not a fan of vegan nastiness but the GF bakes are delicious! Avoid the DF and vegan gross stuff and go for the animal-based GF goodness. read more

Literally the BEST GF pastries and cakes and desserts I've ever had! Honestly was blown away, and I could tell immediately that the ingredients were CLEAN and everything is made with so much love. Also the artistry in the pastries is beautiful. So excited to have found this place, and while I dont live in Washington, I will be planning future PNW travels around this bakery so that I can come back for more!!! Also the owner is a sweetheart! read more

My husband and I found this place about a month ago and we can't get enough! I love that I don't have to worry about cross contamination because they are a 100% gluten-free bakery. Anyone who is gluten-free knows how hard it is to find bread and baked goods that are not only completely gluten-free but also taste amazing. Grain Artisan Bakery will not disappoint! They have so many options. Also, their sourdough bread is the best I've ever had. read more

Who knew gluten-free could be so delicious?! I stopped here looking for a treat after a road race and was mesmerized by all of the delicious looking treats, particularly the cakes. I ordered an 8oz lavender latte with oat milk ($5) and their packaged cake bites, espresso brownie and berry cardamom, for later and a dill & cheese scone for breakfast. The scone was just how you would want, crunchy on the outside and soft & chewy on the inside. It was also wonderfully savory. The cakes were also so delicious. The espresso frosting had a rich flavor that complimented the strong brownie flavor (definitely would go well with a cup of coffee or glass of oatmilk). The berry cardamom was an unexpected flavor combo that kept me going back, bite after bite. TL;DR: this is a wonderful gluten free bakery and espresso bar that has a selection of cakes and sweet & savory pastries. You can't go wrong with an order here. The treats are so good I would be willing to drive back up from Seattle just to have one! read more

Grain Artisan Bakery - Pastry case - Bakeries Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

Worth the drive--located in downtown Snohomish and super close to the Centennial and Riverfront trails. There is outside seating that dogs can join you. All items are gluten free but have other dietary inclusions too. We had two scones (bacon and cheese and an everything); very flaky and flavorful. The vegan gluten free cake was delicious; the frosting I couldn't tell was vegan but the cake was dense and still tasty! The lemon cookie was my favorite treat! They didn't have drip coffee so we also order two Americanos. Would recommend and would take more road-trips to visit this wonderful bakery! read more

Our first visit to Snohomish! We walked into the beautiful little boutique bakery. It was nice and quiet when we walked in, with cute merch to boot! Once a line grew, as we struggled to choose our pastries, even they were kind and patient with us. We picked out a cardamom roll (like a cinnamon roll but with cardamom and sprinkle of pistachios!!) and an excellent, not-too-sweet tiramisu, perfect to compliment anything else sweeter which we did with the cardamom roll. The flour they is incredible and makes me want to start baking using ancient grain! With a wide variety of healthier than your average bakery options to choose from, you'll be wowed, especially if you are looking for a fresh flavor! Thank you for having us Grain Artisan! read more

If I lived in "Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist", walking into this bakery would cause me to openly burst out into Cutting Crew's "I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight" and I would slide up to the glass separating myself from the baked goods and smear my body all over it, wailing this 80's Rock Ballad mournfully and off-tune. While this is my compulsion, I have successfully taken a deep breath, pulled my shit together and stepped in *almost* nonchalantly, as though I am not losing my ever-loving mind. I have done this twice since stumbling upon Grain just seven days ago. If you've been to Grain, you are impressed by my restraint. What I cannot seem to restrain myself from doing is opening up my wallet and giving these baking geniuses all my damn money. Never Have I Ever Spent So Much .... New Cascadia is PDX has come close, but that's a considerable drive away and they simply lack the fucking-fantastic creative spirit behind all the magic produced in that back kitchen. Today a triathlon took me back close enough to the area that I popped in on my way home and freaked out again at the sight of s'more's cake, bourbon peach shortcake, and a blueberry lemon thyme scone. Only after I paid and was waiting for my coffee (which is also excellent, by the way) did I catch other options that I missed out on. I am Still struggling to accept that I left some delicious sweets behind. I may have grief dreams tonight. But I've staved off diabetes for another day, so that's good. It's one thing to come up with fun, interesting flavor combinations that delight the imagination. It is quite another to be able to execute them well. Grain does this. They do it with an extreme level of talent, an eye to detail, and considerable love. If they have not yet won awards and accolades, you can bet the farm they will be soon. I plan on returning next Saturday simply because it's my birthday and I can. That will be three Saturdays in a row, And at that point it may become such a habit that I drive for nearly 90 minutes each Saturday to get my fix. There's a 50/50 chance it will happen. Oh yeah, heads up! This bakery is mostly gluten free, but you can't tell. This is why, after 13 years of being GF and suffering through horrific attempts of decent baked goods, Coming across something that is truly extraordinary in it's own right and not extraordinary "for gluten-free" causes me to literally lose my mind and drop F bombs in the bakery each time I go. If you have not yet been there, you need to. As soon as humanly possible. I don't care if you live in Bellingham or Tacoma. Find an Airbnb if you live in Spokane and get your keister into this bakery. You'll thank me, I promise. read more

I ordered a GF earl grey cake / wild lavender buttercream cake (9 inch) for my baby shower. I asked for a variation of decor based on a picture from their Instagram page and they nailed it! I loved the fun flavor - although the buttercream leaned more on the sweet side. No one could tell it was a GF cake. 100% recommend. read more

Grain Artisan Bakery - Vegan funfetti cupcake with vanilla frosting. - Bakeries Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

i was so excited to try this (mostly GF) bakery after all the rave reviews I saw on FB, and because i was so excited i totally for got to take pictures. So, imagine if you will, three layers of dense chocolate cake with thick layers of peanut butter buttercream.Yum! I fully intended to put it straight into the freezer to enjoy later, but instead ate the bottom layer of cake and accompanying buttercream before wrapping it up and freezing for my next choclate craving calls. On to the main treat for the day, the blueberry scone with balsamic glaze. I love a good scone and have missed them since going gluten free. This one was so good, even my husband liked it (so I had to share:(). Its a bit of a drive to go out to Snohomish to pick up treats on the regular, but I will for sure be returning! read more

This bakery is absolutely fantastic! They have vegan goodies, GF, keto friendly, paleo friendly, the list goes on. Their GF salted caramel brownie [pictured], and the Asiago + Dill scone were delectable. They also have espresso and other yummy drink options. The staff is also so kind and inviting, which is just icing on their gluten free cakes! ;) I will definitely be coming here often. read more

Grain Artisan Bakery - GF salted caramel brownie - Bakeries Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

Visited from Michigan and was in town for the day so I had to stop by and try this new bakery in town! My mom and I gobbled the cardamom ginger molasses cookie sandwich before I could get a picture but it was so good! The filling was like a buttercream frosting. I also had an oat milk cappuccino and it was pure perfection- the microfoam was the best I've ever had. They also make their own syrups which is a plus. Best coffee in Snohomish. Everything looked so delicious- I will be back! read more

I went here two days in a row when I first found this place. There's a group online that talks about food in Snohomish county and this bakery came up in a thread about keto treats. Finding keto desserts feels impossible. This place does keto brownies and a keto "everything bread." There are also a lot of gluten free options, and I noticed a dairy free option. This place is very mindful of dietary restrictions and I've mentioned it to other GF and DF friends. Sugar causes a lot of inflammation for me (autoimmune) so keto options were a godsend. The brownies were delicious and didn't fall apart. The gluten free earl grey cake was a huge sugar cheat for me, but earl grey is my favorite thing and it was incredibly delicious. It's one of those situations where if you risk a food cheat it better be worth it. This was worth it. (I don't recommend anyone else eating anything that will wreck them) There's also a really good beverage selection with a variety of chocolate and herbal drinks. One was called mud latte/ mud water with cocoa, chai, turmeric, cinnamon, other things I can't remember right this second, but it was tasty and comforting. This place is charming, the presentation is good, the flavor is even better. I hope this place succeeds and has longevity in the community. read more

I got a hall pass from the hubs one morning this week and did a drive-by knowing Grain has been hopping (well as hopping as Covid allows but still! They are so loved by our community!)....and really that drive-by was pre-meditated honestly but hey! I was in the market for some hot beverages and some baked goods of course. I was really tempted by the Golden Latte after hearing about it from others, but ended up indulging in Grain's signature Lavender Latte. I got it with oat milk which had a nice nutty flavor to it and the lavender syrup is house made. Milk alternatives are brought to you by MALK (except the coconut milk and I forget who makes that). Hubby got a latte with whole milk. Typically he gets nonfat which isn't offered here, but he appreciated the treat of whole milk. On this visit there were day old cookies....well let me tell you my kids had their first Grain cookie probably 2 days old and they were smitten so I happily scooped up 2 of these 50% off! The gluten and vegan free salted chocolate chunk cookies were 25% off...also awesome and so decadent! We had Leek, Shallot and Asiago Galettes for lunch that day...the pastry was so buttery and perfect as was the filling. My tastebuds almost always favor the savory over the sweet so this was welcomed...and I've already decided anytime savory scones are available I will scoop those up too. Word on the street is Grain will be offering frozen pot pies (and may be already?) which I'm very excited for! read more

The food options are limited. The beverages are posted but some names are not usually what would be in a cafe. And not gonna lie i was disappointed with the coffee i got. Never had a cup of coffee filled full of foam and 25% coffee. I scooped out and swallowed all the foam to see when it ends and there was still more. read more

Love this Bakery! Love all the flavors - the cakes, cookie, scones, and more! Would recommend to anyone who's in the area to check it out! They offer desserts with dietary needs e.g. dairy free, gluten-free (but I believe their store is not "gluten free certified" ?), vegan, etc... I love all their scones, cakes, and other desserts! My favorite is their lavender earl grey cake! read more

If you're lucky enough to score one of their GF sourdough loafs, consider yourself lucky. I promise you, you'd never know the difference. The salted caramel cupcakes are to die for. Scones are incredible, but outside of the sourdough, the pot pies are heavenly. Yes pricy but it's worth it, how on earth they put together a GF, DF, and EF pot pie and have it taste like the real deal, is beyond me. True magic what this bakery does read more

Amazing experience with this bakery! Congratulations on getting certified gluten free. I'm from California and was visiting my boyfriend for my birthday and he wanted to get me a cake. I get really sick whenever I eat gluten, so my boyfriend was able to find this bakery to make my cake for me. They apparently went down the list of allergens for me even though my boyfriend didn't really know how much dairy I could tolerate, but they asked him enough questions to get the perfect thing for me! The cake was DELICIOUS! And when we went to pick it up, we got a few bakery items as well. Everything we got was delicious. If you're celiac, I definitely recommend this bakery and think you should support it. read more

A must have for me when I'm in the area. Since I've had to go gluten free, I've been to a lot of GF bakeries and this has been the most memorably delicious! Everything I've gotten there is SO good. I have also seen that they do classes that teach you the ins/outs of GF baking and I'd love to do that sometime in the near future :) read more

This place is such a hidden gem and wish I lived closer to it! You can enjoy amazing delicious treats that are gluten/ Vegan and taste incredibly much better! I got to try their earl grey lavender cake, cinnamon roll, and salted chocolate chunk cookies. Everything tasted wonderful- the cake had a strong lavender taste and the frosting was sweet, salty, and creamy! The cookies were so chewy, soft, and thick and had the perfect amount of sweet/salty. The worker was very friendly and welcoming, even gave us an extra cookie! Cant wait to go back, their goods sell out fast so recommend getting there earlier and check out their Instagram for daily items and pop up sales! read more

Just ate here this morning with my family. We ordered a mix of cakes, bread pudding, scones, and brownies. It was all so good! It was awesome going to a bakery that had such a great selection of combined gluten and dairy free selections. Yes, all of the baked goods are gluten free. Luckily for my family, not all of it was nut based flours. My daughter commented, "I did not know that this amount of awesomeness could exist." She was right! I had the s'more cake. I was kinda bummed with the top cake level, as almond flour isn't my fave. The next two levels made up for it. The middle level was almost fudge-like! It was amazing!! My husband said the rum bread pudding wasn't overly flavored by rum. My youngest had a bite of it and loved it. He loved it too! They all enjoyed the bacon scone. We will definitely be back! I took a df/gf cinnamon roll home to have tomorrow morning. Can't wait! read more

Grain has the best desserts/food ever! Lauren knows how to cook. Her brownies are some of my favorite , the frosting ON EVERYTHING she makes is incredible. How she manages to make things GF V DF is insane because you'd NEVER KNOW. My second favorite on the menu is her savory scones, but then there's also the galettes... I mean you can't go wrong with anything!! I love that the menu rotates. I've been following her since she was just a cupcake business and even then it was bomb. The storefront is so beautiful and if you haven't checked this amazing spot out you should. It's welcoming and Lauren is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. read more

visited Grain Artisan Bakery at the capitol hill farmers market this past weekend! There was a very long line but it was definitely worth the wait. I was so indecisive because all of the cakes and treats looked SO delicious. I got the brownie with passion fruit icing. Let me tell you this was one of the best brownies I have EVER had! And even better yet it was entirely gluten free!!! Wow can't wait to get back here and try out some of their cakes next time! read more

I discovered Grain when on a trip to Snohomish. As someone who is recently gluten free finding a bakery was amazing enough. However Grain elevates the experience and makes gluten free treats that taste even better than "typical" ones. It is worth making the trip from Kirkland just to stock up on their goodies. We like it so much that we chose to have them cater the desserts for our wedding celebration in April :) read more

Finally an allergy friendly bakery! They have a variety of goods that change out daily. It's one of the only bakeries that sells allergy friendly cake by the slice. The cake was a bit dense probably due to being gluten and dairy free but it was super tasty. Highly recommend! read more

I have a list of food allergies and sensitivities that make finding treats a real challenge. My only complaint about Grain is that it's too close too home. I ordered three different 6" cakes for my birthday and every one of them was AMAZING!!! You couldn't tell any of them were gluten free or that two of them were Vegan as well. I've been gluten-free for 15 years and I've been baking since I was a child growing up in my parents restaurant/bakery. Grain offers nothing less than the absolute BEST cakes and cookies around. They have great cinnamon rolls as well, but they'd been even better if they were baked without the space between them. That does dry out the sides more than I prefer, but I like soft and gooey cinnamon rolls. I long for the day when they perfect a gluten-free (dairy, and egg free) pie crust. I miss a good flakey pie crust. If anyone can do it, I know it will be the amazing bakers at Grain. read more

As someone who just found out a month ago that he has to live a gluten free life, this bakery is saving me. I've found that living gluten free isn't so bad as long as you stick to things that are naturally GF and avoid things where people try to mimic gluten. But this place is the exception. Everything tastes so good and I wouldn't even know it was GF if I just happened upon the place. My son and I shared the pumpkin bread and the raspberry/brownie sandwich cookie and both were super good. My son has tried some GF things from the store and agrees that in most cases wheat-based baked goods are superior. And in most cases he'd be right. But this bakery is next level. Please ignore the dingdong trying to slam the business for requiring masks. As you well know, everywhere still currently requires masks whether they enforce it or not. It's a really low thing to do to give this place a 1-star just because they are trying to keep everyone safe. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. It's a fantastic bakery whether you have GF needs or not. read more

Quality is not consistent, and the owner doesn't care. We have ordered three cakes from Grain. The first two were great. The last one was awful! It was burned and so tough we had to use a serrated knife to saw through it. It was sunken and the filling had pooled to the middle. It ruined our son's birthday celebration. We called three times, and the staff was apologetic and told us the owner, Lauren, would call us back. We heard that the head baker was aware of our concerns--so we know the message was shared. This happened a month ago and we have not heard from Lauren. The cake was $90, and we want the money back. We are also small business owners ourselves and wouldn't dream of ignoring customers. read more

Okay I'll be the first to admit that I avoid gluten free bakeries because everything tends to taste like cardboard. This is so not the case at Grain and in fact some of their baked goods taste better than those with all the gluten! I also love their matcha, it's a tasty local brand but their staff also seem to make it just right too. I often drive over here just to stop at Grain and will put up with Snohomish's crappy parking only to walk in for a minute and enjoy my treats on the way home. Nothing compares to the sweet potato scone or the chocolate chip cookies (just order both versions of the cookies so you can decide if you're a salted and doughy or crunchy and no salt person, you might be surprised) but the whole case is full of options begging to be tried. I'm hoping they'll be doing some holiday items because this is where our Thanksgiving goods will come from this year! read more

It's our most favorite bakery! They have a great selection of gluten free goodies, but get there early as they sell out quickly most days. Yum!!! read more

The product here is great, the customer service is always kind. Best bakery in Snohomish by a mile. The baked goods are best in class. My favorites are the Funfetti Cake, the Raspberry Protein Brownie, and the Chive Everything scones. Those Chive Everything scones are lit. The cake slices are bigger than you'd want for a single serving. This is a bootstrapped small business in Snohomish that is woman owned an operated. The operators are setting a new bar for how to treat your staff in Snohomish and it's great to see. Grain shows that quality and candor, not greed, are the keys to success. The niche they have selected and the community they have decided to establish themselves in creates very funny social media reactions. Follow them on IG if you enjoy watching alternative medicine gluten "intolerant" 5G conspiracy theorists lose their minds when a small business chooses to leverage their authorities to make decisions that are not well aligned with whatever trash is trending on FB this morning. I'm glad Grain is in Snohomish and I hope they remain successful for a long time. read more

Went here on a Saturday morning for some treats and they weee delicious! It was busy but the line moved fast and everyone working there was masked. Specifically went to get vegan sweets and there were a few- a Brookline sandwich (cookies and cream) and a chocolate cookie. Also got a lemon raspberry cookie sandwich and a cupcake (not vegan.) It was pricey (around $27) but obviously high quality and delicious- would recommend! read more

I was excited to try their vegan cakes but was extremely disappointed. It was nearly $8 per cake slice which just seems insane to begin with. The presentation of the cakes were beautiful, but the taste was sadly terrible. The chocolate mint cake had a bad fake mint aftertaste and the cookies & cream cake had the texture of raw dough. Both were extremely heavy and I'm forcing myself to eat through these since i paid $40 for 4 slices but i literally cant take more than a few bites at a time. :( hope their other desserts are better read more

LOVE. Grain truly has something for everyone. I'm dairy free and greatly appreciate a bakery whose allergen free offerings aren't an afterthought. Not only do they serve well made classics (chocolate chip cookies, chocolate peanut butter cake etc) but creative combinations like chocolate and earl gray cake, or the "Persian Love" cake (cardamom, pistachio, rose water, raspberry). It's not fully vegan or gluten free so don't get too excited until you read all the signs, but everything is very well labeled. Also don't be deterred by the prices... I think a cake slice is around $9 but it's easily 3 servings. read more

Big fan of Grain since early 2019 when I met Lauren at a wedding show. Never having tried any delicious gluten-free baked goods, I was skeptical (aren't we all?!). But then I bought three pieces of cake and a couple cookies, and holy cow, I was hooked! So excited for this place to open so we can have all these goodies anytime we want! The dark cacao salted caramel cake is to die for. So are the brownies - especially with peanut butter frosting! Anything with the salted caramel is a must-have. The huge signature chocolate chunk cookies are so fantastic (crispy on the outside with a wonderful soft middle) but so are the vegan salted chocolate chunk cookies (a little chewier), so just get one of each and decide what you prefer. The galettes are practically a meal in themselves. Really, I want one of almost everything in the display case. And since the offerings change daily, you might as well grab it if it looks good! Coffee, tea and a few other drinks are available as are merchandise (shirts, stickers, mugs, etc) and some other retail items. There is no dedicated parking but lots of free streetside parking and the town of Snohomish is full of great places to explore! Also, they do holiday orders as well as wedding cakes!! read more

All I have to say is THANK YOU!!! I absolutely hate my food intolerances, it's so disappointing that I can't ever find anything to curb my sweet cravings. So thank you Grain Bakery for amazing delicious baked goods and coffee with dairy alternatives!! read more
