Fantastic atmosphere, love the sidewalk seating and cozy benches inside. Great windows to watch the nearby market activity. So many great pastries, we typically can't limit it to just one, so we leave with a box for the week. We also enjoy the Bexley location while in Columbus. read more

Ok, I admit, I'm a pedantic ass. This place is down the street from me, but I've avoided it for months as I glare at the misspelled German text on their sign ('Bäkerei' for 'Bäckerei'?). There is already too much mediocre "German" fare in this city. Happily, despite the French and German on their sign, this place is apparently neither. Cherbourg is the name of the French-ish flagship location in Columbus, and the "Cyprus" part is supposed to be Greek, I guess? Or Turkish? Because they serve Shakshuka? I don't know, I'm grasping at straws here. Oh, everything is gluten-free! Ok, so frankly the concept still makes zero sense to me, but does it matter? The food is really quite good, and they serve Deeper Roots coffee in a much more comfortable space than the actual Deeper Roots location next-door, so I'm sold. The three-cheese rosemary quiche is a.m.a.z.i.n.g, and all of the sweet baked goods look great, as well. The wifi is fast, and this is a great place to work in general with a bright, spacious interior and a very quiet atmosphere despite the open kitchen. Minor gripe, nonetheless worth mentioning: there are no prices or labels on anything, so someone has to explain everything on offer to you every time you come in, I guess. The staff are friendly enough and the prices all seem reasonable, but if it's busy, you haven't had your coffee yet, or you're trying to watch your wallet, this could be a tedious process. read more

I love the open kitchen concept at Cherbourg. I think it's super cute and unique. When you walk in it feels as if you have walked into someone's kitchen. It's awesome! When I arrived I was greeted by one of the bakers, I don't remember her name. She was super friendly and helpful on questions I had about the desserts. Their desserts are also gluten free, and believe it or not they are very tasty! The owner, Geri, was also there the day I went and she is super nice as well. The day I went I tried the Lemon Bars, Cinnamon Sugar Donut, Raspberry Cupcake, and the Lemonade Donut. Lemon Bars - Yummy! These bars were your classic lemon bars. They were full of lemon flavor and the custard was creamy and tasty. Cinnamon Sugar Donut - Light fluffy donuts! These were good and not too sweet. You can definitely taste the Cinnamon Sugar but it was a balanced flavor. This was great for breakfast. Raspberry Cupcake - This pastry was my favorite. It was super moist and the cake was perfect. It was like a yellow or vanilla cake with buttercream frosting and a raspberry drizzle topped with lemon zest and a raspberry. The taste was amazing! Lemonade Donut - This was my husband's favorite. It tasted like lemonade but not anything odd or overpowering. It tasted natural. It was a donut with a lemonade glaze. He really enjoyed this donut. This for me was more like a dessert donut. It was also fluffy and soft. Overall, Cherbourg has some good gluten free pastries. read more

I loved this blueberry muffin more than I have ever loved any blueberry muffin in my life. It was perfectly sweetened, stuffed with real berries, and still baked to perfection. The atmosphere of the cafe is delightful and fits right into the Findlay vibe. I love how they bake everything out in the open so we can see what's going into all the items. The staff was friendly, charming, and knowledgeable. It did not seem like they were just randos hired to fill places - they really knew what they were talking about. Or at least they had watched enough Great British Baking Show to fake it pretty well. read more

So grateful to have a nut free and gluten free bakery in Cincinnati that is DELICIOUS! I didn't take a picture because they didn't last long but we enjoyed the apple pie bars and will definitely be back. We heated them up and served with berries for dessert and they were an 11/10. read more

Summary: Great place to satisfy your sweet tooth and not feel like you overindulged! Gluten, dye, and nut free this cute spot across from Findlay Market has lots of places to sit and catch up with a friend. Came here on opening day and parked on the street in front of the shop. The meters don't run until 9AM (I think) so if you swing by around 7:30 before work you don't have to pay for parking! When I walked it my gaze was immediately drawn to the beautiful open pastry case with the open kitchen in the background. I love how opent he space is and the blue calming colors on the walls. All the ladies working were super helpful as well and Geri the owner also personally helped me. I got samples of their chocolate cupcake and lemon bar and they were both excellent! I also got the Lavender muffin and it was fabulous! Just a hint of lavender and not overwhelming in flavor at all. My husband who doesn't tend to like floral flavors loved it as well! He said it was the best muffin he ever had he even at it the next day. Definitely a place I'll be frequenting and a place I'll suggest to have coffee meetings with friends. read more

Doesn't have a lot of signage outside but this is a great gluten free bakery! I got the egg quiche-type dish and a powdered donut and it was delicious. Can't even tell it was GF :) read more

This was a dandy little gluten free bakery in Over The Rhine. And when I say gluten free I mean everything they make in the store is gluten free. My wife being 100 percent gluten free was very excited about this. I tried one of their lemon bars as well as a smore brownie and as skeptical as I generally am of gluten free things I couldn't have even told the difference. The lemon bar was spot on with plenty of lemon flavour and a good crust to match. The smore brownie was not far behind with rich chocolate and a good mix of Graham cracker and marshmallow. My wife really enjoyed the maple donut holes as well. All in all a smashing success for everything we tried. read more

We went there late in an afternoon. This bakery had very little left eventhough they were still baking. Prices were high. Lemon squares were not anything special. Cupcakes were a major disappointment. Brownie surprise were ok. They have seating if you want to eat inside. read more

At the east end of Finley Market, we stopped in for a box of gluten-free treats. They have a nice case and selection of sweet desserts of all kinds. Everything here is gluten-free, so if you have a friend of family member with Celiac's Disease, this will be a good place to buy a sweet treat. read more

O.M.G !! Amazing amazing bakery near Findlay Market. Cherbourg Cyprus has a varied assortment of bakery goods and coffee.I got a slice of the chocolate cherry cake and a super cute mini coffee donut. The cake was one of the best I have had in a long time and the donut was nothing less spectacular; super moist with an amazing icing. Everything is moderately priced. It can be quite crowded (no brainer!) on weekends but I can assure you that it will be worth the wait. You will not be disappointed ! Cozy interiors, lovely team and mouth watering baked goods. Need I say anything more ? Go get your share of deliciousness now !! read more

I strolled in here yesterday morning while waiting for Findlay market to open. Since it was a bakery, I couldn't resist. One of the first things I noticed was an employee working with fresh ingredients right for customers to see. I liked that. I then noticed all of the many wonderful baked goods they had for sale. I chose the s'mores bar and the lemon bar. They looked so delicious, I wanted to eat them right away but I was still full from breakfast. I finally got to eat the s'mores bar that evening and it was divine. I had the lemon bar tonight and the crust on it was so buttery. So good. I highly recommend stopping in for a treat! read more

I am so obsessed. Not usually a sugary sweets person, but I stop in here every weekend when I'm at Findlay market to get my groceries. I love, love, love their madeleines, but you have to get there early for them. The lemon bars are *extra* lemony and perfect. read more

A MUST VISIT!! Visited the bakery when my family was in town visiting the Newport Aquarium. Their gluten free/dairy free options are amazing! All goodies are homemade! I bought zucchini cake/bread & lemon muffins! Both of which were to die for! The prices are a little higher than average, but I have no problem paying more for homemade items that I know are for sure gluten & dairy free! Staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about the items, and I am very appreciative of their help! Be prepared, you may have to walk a couple of blocks to get to the bakery after parking, but it's soo worth it! We'll definitely be stopping by again then next time we head Cincy! read more

Great gluten free bakery. Friendly service and delicious options. They do sell out so get there early!

The quiche, blueberry muffin, lemon bar, apple pie bar were all so moist and fabulous. You never would know they were gluten-free, which is obviously a huge success in my family's book! Bonus points for a lovely display of all items available plus an inviting setting to sit and enjoy them along with some tea. Great place to visit when in OTR! read more

Great pastries! I got a lemon bar and it was very filling. Such a cute place! Staff is very nice! I highly recommend this place to anyone passing by. read more

The zucchini muffin and carrot spice muffins are absurdly delicious! So good that we turned back around after eating them and ordered two more to eat later that day at the house. Staff was extremely pleasant as well. Great baked goods and customer service read more

The space is very cute and open for Covid measures with no seating inside. The staff is beyond friendly and very helpful indicating what each item is and pointing out any dietary restrictions. All products are gluten free and some are dairy free, but everything has been delicious, fresh and being gluten free doesn't effect the treats at all. No one would even know that everything is gluten free by taste or texture. I'd recommend the zucchini and pumpkin spiced muffins, strawberry and coffee donuts as well as the chocolate chip cookie. I wouldn't recommend the lemon bar is it was too tart and gooey or the chocolate donut as it was a bit dry compared to the other donuts which were UNREAL. read more

My wifey is GF and we visit Cherbourg Cyprus on a near weekly basis. The space is absolutely beautiful with lots of natural light and views of Findlay Market. The employees are always helpful and the choices are always aplenty. One minor complaint: no prices on any of the items. One recommendation: Do not purchase more items than you can eat in two or three days as they do tend to go stale fairly fast. I am not GF and always eat several items weekly from Cherbourg - the lemon bars were shockingly good. The chocolate donuts and smores bars are also fantastic. A must visit destination if you suffer from gluten issues. read more

YUM!!! Gluten free, nut free bakery!! I have no food allergies but still choose to come here because it's delicious!! My favorite is the s'mores bar... it's a s'mores cookie bar with yummy marshmallow spread. The jalapeño cheese bread was also good which I placed in the oven for a few minutes when I got home at the recommendation of the staff. There are many mini donut flavors. I had the coffee which was excellent. I also got a giant blueberry muffin which lasted for days. YUM! read more

If you are Celiac or follow a gluten free diet and don't bake this is a wonderful place to go! If you, like me bake and are a good baker, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. The chocolate cream cheese cupcake was good and moist and had enough buttercream and cream cheese to make up for the lacking chocolate flavor. The chocolate donut was lacking. It seemed to me the predominant flavor was cinnamon despite the runny chocolate frowning/ganache. The exterior of the blueberry muffin was good. However there were so many blueberries that it completely crumbled whenever I would try to take a bite let alone cut a piece. The apple pie bar had good flavor but the texture was mushy. Again, if you don't bake you'll be delighted by this place.....if you can find It! As of today there was no signage out front and when they are not opened the windows are covered making passerbyers wonder if they are still in business. Also what is a Cherbourg Cyprus....actually I don't care...I juts care about identifying gluten free bakeries when in need and this name hinders that. read more

Updating my review bc they are utterly inept. Waited for ten minutes and they kept saying they'd be with me. Helped others before me and so I finally just left. Literally went in there to try and support a small business and they showed themselves to be typical Cincinnatians who will ignore people of color. Well done. Will be going to the Asian owned bakeries in Cincinnati from now on. Or Makers Bakers also in Findlay. read more

It's been awhile since we don't live close but everything we had was great and we'll be back -- especially now that my son was diagnosed with Celiac. read more

One of my favorite treats to get at Whole Foods was this muffin with lavender sprinkles on top. I would swing over to the cold case and excitedly grab one a couple times a week. I noticed they weren't there any more for a couple weeks. So I googled the brand: Cherbourg. Low and behold, they had opened their own store! Downtown! And they have WAY MORE than the lavender muffins!!! I bought them out on my first visit. They were about to close and had about 16 items left. I brought the box of treats to a brunch and they were the talk of the morning! Cute little cinnamon donuts perfect with coffee, perfectly iced sugar cookies and the brownie!!! I think about this place all the time and eagerly await to go there to treat myself. A treat I can feel good about because it's gluten free and doesn't make me feel overly full!! read more

Delicious!! Everything I tried was awesome. I recommend the blueberry muffin and cinnamon roll!!

Can't choose a bad baked good here! Our servers were friendly and helpful with making choices. And the space is what you'd hope for in a bakery. We recommend sitting in and eating to taking and going. read more

Great options and great prices for those with food allergies! Wish they had more dairy free options but still great!

Favorite bakery in Cincinnati! Everything about this place is great. Right across the street from Findlay market, it is in the perfect location. Upon walking in, you will be greeted by the beyond kind employees and feel energized by the fresh, bright atmosphere. Always worth stopping in when I am in the area. It is challenging to find delicious gluten free baked goods, so to enter a place like Cherbourg where every option is better than the next is truly a treat. Furthermore, if you are nut free or have sensitivities/allergies to dyes, all of their items are safe! Anytime of day is a perfect time to visit Cherbourg Cyprus. In the morning, drop by for a perfectly prepared pour over coffee and a flavorful, filling Zucchini Cake. If you are looking for something more savory the Shakshuka is a great choice. Later in the day, stop by for a sweet treat! They're known for their Lemon Bars but my favorite is their S'mores Bar. Next time you are near Findlay market, whether you are sensitive to gluten or not, definitely stop by Cherbourg Cyprus. You won't be disappointed! read more

New and chic French inspired bakery at Findlay Market. I had the sugar cookie with cream cheese icing, cranberry scone and one of the donut ball. It was delicious and I was surprised that they also had several breakfast items! Learned that you can place orders for events and holiday! Will definitely be back in the near future. read more

I have yet to have a less than wonderful experience here! The staff is so friendly and they were able to answer my questions about their pastries and other goodies. My fiancé isn't gluten free, but even he thinks this place rocks! For being gluten free, I was really happy that every item wasn't super expensive like I was expecting. The prices are good and the treats are even better! read more

What a lovely space. Friendly service. The pour over coffee was a nice cup of java. The goodies I picked up were enjoyed.

I was in Cincinnati for a few hours and found this gem of a gluten-fee bakery!! It is a French style gluten free bakery. . They had a lot of different options and seasonal specials. I tried a pumpkin chocolate chip bar, pumpkin donut, s'mores bar, and a honey lavender ball. The s'mores bar and pumpkin chocolate chip bar were definitely the best! I wish I lived closer so I could come back and try everything else. If you're looking for a gluten free treat this is the place! read more
