I stopped in for some allegedly friendly treats. I ordered their Lemon Blueberry donut and Old Fashioned donut, beignets and a cup of coffee. I was sad that I couldn't get a cinnamon roll as they were frozen and I was getting on the road back home and it wouldn't last the trip. I loved that I didn't have to worry if the baked goods would upset my stomach and I ordered what I wanted. So far I had the Old fashioned donut and it was decadent and just what I wanted, yum! I can't wait to enjoy the other items. I loved the location and its indoor and outdoor area, nice aesthetics. The service was good, friendly and knowledgeable staff. I would definitely return if in the area. So good. read more

Two more great experiences at this location in St. Petersburg. We stopped by on both the day of our arrival as well as the day our departure from the resort we were staying at in the area. We had our mind set on the southwestern skillet upon our arrival; but, since we arrived in the early afternoon on our arrival time, the skillets were sold out. This was not a problem at all as we went with the tacos and they were just as amazing as the skillets. Also, we could've split the tacos as the portion size was absolutely generous. Quite tasty, fresh, and healthy for you. Make sure you have napkins around you as the dish can get a little messy. On our departure, we stopped by and, even though it was a little bit later in the day, we were able to get the southwestern skillet, which was just as good as it was on our first visit to Halelife. To take home, my wife got a cinnamon bun, which was quite tasty and also a generously sized portion. Make sure that you sign up for their loyalty program so you can get credit towards future purchases as well as a complementary birthday dessert. read more

Even my huband who is not gluten free or vegan loved the garlic sticks. And the service is very kind. Not to end with that but I did want to mention it. The food is just top notch. read more

Delicious cupcakes and cookies. So many delicious choices that we ordered all of them. All were amazing! Great communication. Cute shop!

We tried HaleLife for the first time today. My husband has a gluten sensitivity so we really appreciate a gluten free bakery and bistro option. We are not vegan but try to include as much plant based foods as possible. My family ordered the breakfast tacos, loaded tots and the breakfast sandwich via UberEats. The presentation was beautiful. Appreciate the eco friendly packaging. The breakfast tacos were delish! The ingredients were super fresh, flavors were excellent. We really loved the spicy mayo on top. They were perfection. We also enjoyed the loaded tater tots. The tots were extra crispy, the cheese and herb topping were yummy and the right ratios. Can't wait to order those again. The breakfast sandwich was good but a little plain. Could have used a sauce. There is the option to add avocado so we will try that in the future. We really enjoyed our first experience and can't wait to order again soon! read more

This place is a godsend. The cakes, donuts, and all the treats are truly delicious. They feel very indulgent without any food allergen products. I don't eat gluten free but let me tell you I enjoy getting myself a treat here. My nephew suffers from all types of food allergies and this is the only place I can get him treats that are gluten and dairy free which is tough to find both. They have a freezer of frozen pre made cakes ready to go which is perfect. We have also tried there frozen knots which are great. Thank you for offering such great products that are gluten and dairy free. It's expensive but worth every penny for my nephew. read more

Amazing! Delicious drinks, breakfast, lunch, smoothies, endless options and all delicious! I can't believe they had chocolate filled beignets! I haven't had beignets in decades, probably since before I went GF! I got that and breakfast sandwich and both were amazing and homemade bread and all. And it's pet friendly! I left my pups in the car to order and then came back and the owner offered in the future to just bring the pups in when ordering! 2 of my favorite things about a restaurant: good GF options and very pet welcoming! read more

HaleLife Bakery - Avocado toast - Gluten-Free Near Me - St Petersburg, Florida

This review is about the newer location in St. Petersburg, FL. Our adult son unfortunately has recently become allergic to gluten, rye, and barley. I was searching for a place who sold fresh gluten free donuts because that's something he loved to eat. I was pleasantly surprised that they had donuts and they had a lot of options for people with gluten & dairy allergies. I actually had a donut myself and it tasted good (not as good as with gluten, but what can you do). The only reasons this review is lacking 2 stars is because when my son ate the donut I bought here, he actually had a reaction. His stomach hurt & threw up the donut. I don't know why. I'm not saying there was gluten in it because I highly doubt that, but just letting everyone know that he did react. The other 2 donuts left (we ordered 4) our oldest son (no allergies) ate and he enjoyed them. The other reason for the lack of 2 more stars is the price. Each donut is $6!!! I understand it takes certain ingredients to make stuff gluten free, but why SO much money?!? Just as much time as you would make a regular donut is the same time to make a gluten free donut. So time can't be a reason for the high prices. I also bought the cinnamon rolls and they were never eaten because it passed the expiration date. That's another thing. If you're going to buy something that is gluten free (anywhere unless it's frozen), it MUST be eaten soon. Otherwise, it's no good. With all that being said, I would tell anyone with an allergy to gluten, to try something small first and don't go often because it can get expensive. Learn to make it at home. That's what I've started doing. RESPONSE TO OWNER COMMENT: There was one other reaction to the donut. Someone had migraines. Look it up on your reviews. As for the costs, I understand now. read more

This place is awesome and I am so happy that I discovered it. One of my friends is a vegan, so anytime that she hosts a dinner, I like to bring a dessert along with me. I'm always cautious of what I'm bringing because of her vegan lifestyle. And now I have a go to spot for desserts. The cupcakes taste amazing. I honestly feel like if you didn't tell me they were vegan I would never have guessed. They're nice and moist and nicely decorated. I also purchased two donuts and they were also equally delicious! I ordered from the website and it couldn't have been any easier. I just went through, added the items to my cart, picked my date and time for check out, and paid! Super easy! When I went to pick it up, they had it all nice and ready for me. The lady even gave me advice on how to keep it fresh, since I wouldn't be having them till the next day. The staff are so nice and welcoming as well. They're also taking covid very seriously. Six feet apart and one person in the bakery part at a time. So I'm very appreciative of that! Looking forward to future trips there! read more

HaleLife Bakery - Cupcakes and donuts! - Gluten-Free Near Me - St Petersburg, Florida

This place is DELICIOUS! I just moved to Florida from Los Angeles. This past year for me has been really difficult as I had to have 3 kidney surgeries. My Nephrologist advised I had to switch to a full vegan diet and I had no idea of where to start. Halelife offered tons of solutions from vegan breakfast options to vegan quesadillas for lunch, and coffee options as well. They have so much more, too! This place is a MUST TRY. The owner Laura was working at a table when we visited and she was extremely kind, informative on the menu options, and explanatory in the way she expressed what products were best for my diet. They will have my business time and time again for sure. Thanks Laura and the awesome Halelife culinary team! Jeremy is the Associate that helped cash us out and he was also an absolute pleasure, super kind and lots of positive energy. :) read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! I bought these treats for my teammates who have a plethora of food allergies. Huge hit! Fantastically delicious donuts and other bakery treats that are vegan, gluten free, and more! Anyone who has food allergies and is super bummed when they can't indulge...fear no more! Parking/Location: this is the ONLY reason I docked them a star. It's one of the last right hand turns before jumping on the highway. It's in a small dark industrial-type strip plaza off the beaten path. They definitely need a better location that is out in the open for people to see. I would love to see them in Hyde Park, a newly renovated clearwater or palm harbor shopping area, trinity; something with more foot traffic. Food: uuummm DONUTS!! Tiramisu, Oreo, Cookie Monster, strawberry cheesecake, Boston cream; all GF, vegan, tree nut free! I couldnt believe it or my taste buds. They also have cupcakes, grab-and-go cakes, cinnamon rolls, and more. Price: more than dunkin but you're getting quality ingredients and it's so worth it. They also offer a rewards program and discounts. You also get a free bakery item in your first order! read more

I am so ecstatic to have found Hale Life Bakery. I have autoimmune disease and many food allergies/sensitivities. These are the only allergen-free pastries that my body can tolerate AND taste as delicious, if not better, than "regular" baked goods. The donuts are more dense and not light like the chain store donuts (Dunkin, Krispy Kreme, etc). I describe them as a cake like donut and they are amazing. The cupcakes are so good that you wouldn't even know that special allergen friendly flours and ingredients are being used. For those that have tried gluten-free, dairy-free, and nut-free baking... you know the struggle is real... it's so hard to find a good recipe that doesn't taste like a dry, hard, hockey puck. With that said, Hale Life has taken the guess work and failed trials out of the equation. You can just enjoy every yummy bite! I've tried their donuts and cupcakes in 2 separate occasions. The first was when my husband picked them up with an online order for my birthday over Covid summer and yesterday when I decided to get donuts while waiting for a special ordered 4"cake. Happy with both experiences and the staff was amazing. My favorite donut is Boston Cream and my favorite cupcake is Key Lime (which is a seasonal item). NOTE: My husband and I will be trying a special ordered birthday cake that I just bought from Hale Life and are planning on ordering another one for our Anniversary in a couple of weeks. So I will update my review on their special order cakes at the end of October. COVID side note: They are practicing social distancing by having separate entry and exit doors and having stickers on the floor where you can stand 6' apart from others. Masks are still mandatory in order to help protect the staff and customers, as many are immunocompromised. Thank you for this! read more

HaleLife Bakery was a place that I really wanted to try. Since I was in the area, I decided to stop by. I should have tasted their baked goods before buying so many. It was such a waste and we had to throw away so many cupcakes and donuts. The cake tasted like olive oil mixed with chemicals and the icing was also very bland with a chemical taste. I feel bad for not supporting a local bakery, but it was inedible. There are other vegan bakeries in Pinellas County that I didn't even know were vegan, they were just delicious. I don't think that's why it tasted so bad. Maybe what I tried was just old goods. read more

I think it's great that there's a bakery that caters to people who can't or don't want to consume gluten. With that being said, I thought it was just alright. I got 2 donuts and a brookie. They all tasted kind of dry and the donuts were really more like cake. Everything was veryy sweet which isn't my personal cup of tea anymore. This place was good, but not amazing. read more

Oh wow y'all they have the best gluten free vegan donuts!! I've never had one this moist and delectable. I had the blueberry lemon donut. The fruitiness flavors were spot on. I did buy more than just the donut, I mean daaaa. I loose my superpowers against sweets. I can't wait to taste my mint chocolate cupcake and the strawberry lemon cupcake. Oh and the chocolate cupcake with filling!!! It reminds me of a Little Debbie hostess chocolate cream filled cupcake. Ok I'm going to go taste them all right now!!! Yummyville here I come!! read more

We ate here with a friend who is both gluten free and dairy free. Every single thing we tasted was amazing! We had the pizza, the tacos, several cookies, a brookie and their specialty Christmas tree.

This place is the bees knees of health-conscious dessert places. I completely love and appreciate that HaleLife products are dedicatedly free from the most common allergens (except coconut is utilized but that is no problem for me as I adore coconut, sorry if you cannot eat it [Brandon G.])!!! They are a dedicatedly Gluten-Free & Vegan Bakery as well as Dairy, Soy, Egg, Tree Nut, Peanut Free. What an awesome concept and haven for those who have severe allergies and dietary needs for something that won't severely affect them! As it isn't enough that this gem of a bakery exists everything I have sampled here has been excellent! Now HaleLife accepts nationwide orders as well as online ordering and they have an awesome cake baker, Jackie, who makes the most exquisite custom cakes! And in addition, HaleLife hosts informational events and I believe baking sessions occasionally as well. Check social media for goings on. They have over 25 + baked goods to buy in any given day and as of this autumn, have began to stock other local businesses with their bakes goods (locations on HaleLife website). Get here fast and prepare to be delighted! read more

I heard about HaleLife Bakery. I wanted to check them cause they do plant base deserts. I'm not a vegan, I just to eat healthy but I down me a fat steak though. I stop by HaleLife Bakery, it was cute and a bakery atmosphere. Customer Service is on point and the staff is knowledgeable. Everything looked good and hard to choose which one wanted. I had to do paper, rock, & scissors to choose the three I wanted ( I don't remember the names but they look delicious) to eat. Now, I'm sitting down watching some cheesy Netflix movie and bought take a bite in them. I don't tell my secrets, you must go try them out for yourself. I will say, your taste buds will be pleased read more

This particular spot out of their three is very hard to find but I suppose they are still doing well business wise. -everything was delicious -nothing tasted like a donut (more like delicious, dense donut shaped bunt cakes) - The prices were on the higher side - Nothing tasted like cheesecake that was supposed to I'm glad it exists & I hope they do well. Local vegans please show the local vegan spots some love. Local gluten free people this is your SPOT! read more

Hale life is a great place for those with a dairy intolerance. This location is kind of tucked back off the road, so it's easy to miss, but it's worth the hunt. Everything we've tried has been very good. The donuts are not like a traditional yeast donut, but a little more dense. Their take and bake cinnamon rolls are delicious, especially around the holidays! read more

Great for vegan and gluten free dessert options! Beautiful visuals with great tasting frosting and the cake has a nice flavor but I just wish it had more moisture. Plenty of flavors to pick from though! The Shop itself is really cute inside and looks nice and clean. The service was lovely as well! All in all I got a good selection for a fair price :) read more

I love this place so so much fresh tasty vegan treats and food I wish they were closer!!!

Delicious! My friend took me here for my birthday and they have so many fresh good choices! Everything is vegan and gluten free woohoo! They cupcakes and donuts are four dollars each and are definitely worth it. They have a variety of flavors including flavors of the month which were raspberry lemonade cupcake and strawberry margarita donut. I got a strawberry lemon cupcake which was good but the raspberry lemonade cupcake was even better! I really enjoy their donuts. I've had a strawberry cheesecake one from Cider Press before and so this time I got the blueberry lemon and boy is it tasty. They also offer CBD infused items that are pricier for obvious reasons. The employees were friendly and they have one table in the corner to sit and eat there. Most people take it to go. Very yummy! read more

If it wasn't for the fact that the cake was delicious, this would be a 1 star review and only because I can't give 0. Without having skimmed the other reviews, I can only assume most or all went into the bakery to buy something as opposed to ordering a cake or other baked goods, because if they tried to order by phone or the website, they'd be just as angry as me. First, HaleLife is only open from 9AM - 3PM in a commercial area of Clearwater. Not exactly convenient from most residential areas and only open when most people have to be at work. Therefore, the only way to place an order is to use the form on the website or call or email. The problem is, no one responds. If you call, you're leaving a voicemail. I must have called half a dozen times over a 2 week period and finally just left a message. I also submitted a request on their on-line form and then followed up with an email when I didn't hear from anyone. Point is, you will never hear from anyone. In fairness, I did get 1 email response suggesting a certain size cake based on how many people I'd be serving, but when I emailed back asking for a price and next steps, once again, no one responded. Thank god I had a friend who lived nearish and had a day off to stop in for me to place the order. But even after she placed the order, the bakery told her to have me call to let them know when I'd be picking it up. Difficult, considering they don't answer the phone, but my friend said HaleLife instructed that I should leave a message. I did, and thankfully my cake was ready because no one called back. So, if not for a kind friend, they never would have gotten my business because their customer service is non-existent. I honestly don't know how you stay in business when you ignore someone trying to give you business. Fact is though, they are a vegan bakery and they are really good at what they do. I ordered a chocolate chip cookie cake that my lady saw on their instagram page and wanted for her birthday and it was fantastic. Don't know how you make a cake without eggs or milk taste that good but they did it and again, it is the only reason they are getting a positive review. Part of me wanted the cake to be bad so I could go completely off in my review, but they hit a home run with the cake. So, I'm left critiquing them for piss-poor customer service and being really really bad at all aspects of running a business except, I suppose, the important part, and that's the baking. read more

Sweets so good you really can't tell they're vegan/gluten free! I love the location of this bakery, not a ton of other food options in the mile radius around carillon. Every time I stop in everything looks so good I end up buying much more than anticipated. They're also allergy friendly. I do wish they served coffee or tea or something, If they did I would be back all the time! read more

All hail, Halelife! This fab bakery is faaaar off the beaten path but well worth the effort to get here for their sweets. I came in to buy some cupcakes for a friend's birthday. There was a great variety of your standard cupcake flavors - chocolate chip, cookies &cream, etc. They had a special berry flavor cupcake that i just had to get for myself. The cake is moist and it has the perfect amount of icing. I am an icing fiend so i dont mind the overkill icing but i hate when someone skimps on icing. Halelife has the right goldilocks icing balance of "just right." Halelife is your best bet for supplying kids birthday party because theres always a kid or two who is gluten free, vegan etc. Halelife has all that covered. I would recommend buying here and saving yourself the trouble or having a kid feel left out of the party. You'll be the star of your kids bday party to the parents and the kiddos who are plant based & gluten-free. Now, ive had vegan cupcakes, ive had gluten-free cupcakes and hands down gluten-free are the worst tasting. They are always too grainy and not enough moisture. Vegan cupcakes are fine: you honestly wont miss the egg or milk. Gluten free is harder to pull off right than vegan cupcakes but Halelife does it! These cupcakes seriously taste amazing and look totally insta-worthy! So, bottom line is Halelife has super delicious baked goods no matter what! read more
