The Pasta Shoppe Bakery and Fine Foods by Beat the Wheat

As someone who is gluten free, looking for somewhere to eat was difficult, but then we happen to pass this place. Everything was gluten free and the food was exceptional to such an extent my wife said the food was better than non-gluten! Totally recommend the Lemon and Poppyseed Muffin!

Stopped in for take out. Daughter ordered a pasta with red sauce. The pasta was under cooked and the red sauce was a bit watery and bland. The makings are there, but they really need to up their game. Butter tarts are fairly good.

I love the Pasta Shoppe...the pasta and sauces are so fresh and tasty and they are always have some new items to try. The cold pasta salad is one of the best I have ever had and the baked goods are excellent. Love the maple butter tarts and cinnamon buns!! This is my favourite place to eat in Bracebridge!!

My wife and I stopped in for lunch. My wife had the cold pasta salad which she thought was very good. I however was distracted by the flies in the restaurant and noticed that the baked goods were not covered. Bread was left on shelves with no covering or enclosures and left exposed to the flies. This threw my appetite and I could not finish my lunch.

Just had lunch here with my husband. We had the cold pasta salad, which I thought was pretty good and I'm not a big pasta fan. But my husband was totally turned off by the flies and the fact that some food was out in the open, such as the fresh baked goods, and flies landing on the food and buzzing around. He was too polite to say anything and walk out of the restaurant while I was ordering the food. Too bad about the flies because it might've been a pleasant lunch.
