Rainbow Bakery

Really charming atmosphere. Delicious treats, both savory and sweet, and very reasonable prices. Everything is vegan, and they have good gluten free options. The salted caramel donut and the breakfast sandwich are my favorites, but the hand pies are pretty fantastic too. My only critique is some of the savory items are a little sweet to me, I'm thinking of the broccoli cheddar scone specifically, but don't really care for sweet in my savory and I still enjoyed it!

Went in for some gluten free donuts and treats this weekend for my fiance. She spent time on multiple gluten free suggestion websites and decided to take a chance with this donut shop. She left a review earlier this week about her experience and now it is no longer able to be seen by the public, not sure why that is. We both just wanted to give people who have food sensitivities the chance to skip over a rough couple of days. If you are someone who is sensitive to gluten, be careful with this shop. My partner was sick for 2-3 days due to the donuts, muffins, and cookies we ordered from this shop. The treats tasted fine, but the food was not prepped, prepared, or stored in a way that was safe for my partner.

If you're trying to go vegan or vegetarian in Bloomington, this place is a life-saver! Before I started eating vegetarian, I first ate their pizza handpies at Hopscotch Coffee. I thought they were filled with hamburger meat until I looked up the bakery and was shocked that everything is vegan! I stop by every weekend and usually get 2-4 handpies, which are my favorite product. I also get a few sweet treats for the week. The donuts are not my favorite, but the cookies are fantastic, especially as a vegan option and the breakfast sandwiches are delicious. My only complaint is that the handpies sell out really quickly (you have to get there between 10:30am-12:00pm to get the good flavors) and the handpie flavors don't always rotate (at least from one weekend to the next, I don't know about weekdays).

I called this bakery on Saturday wanting to know if they could deliver cupcakes to my son at IU. I was told “of course but wait until Monday morning to order.” I tried order this morning and was told they do not deliver to his address. Of course my son will not have birthday cupcakes because I did not call any other bakery. It is always hard for him to feel special on his birthday since it is also Valentines Day. Do not order from this establishment since they are liars!

Wonderful, independent and locally owned Bakery. We love the gluten-free options as well as the vegan bakery Goods. The donuts were super light and fluffy, and gluten-free items were well priced and fresh! We love the old-school interior decor with the formica top kitchen tables for people to sit and have a nice hot cup of coffee. They had a great hot tea selection. I give the rainbow Bakery five stars!
