We needed some gluten-free pies for Thanksgiving so we ordered a pumpkin and apple one from this shop. We were pretty impressed at the large variety of gluten-free items (e.g., pies, rolls, bread, cakes, Mac n Cheese, Chicken Nuggets, etc.). The pies we got were both very good. The apple pie had a lot of delicious crumbles on top. We pre-ordered the pies so they were ready when we dropped by for pickup. read more

This place was super yummy. Wish we could have tried more or had been returning from our trip versus just passing through! Luckily they ship. I was super impressed with their 100 rating for their 5th consecutive year! Greeted as soon as you walk through the door with a clean ship. Freezers and fridges full of amazing gluten free iitiins with a dedicated space. Staff was very helpful and polite. The cheddar biscuits were great when heated in the air fryer. Like fresh baked biscuits. When I return will definitely try the raviolis! read more

JP's Pastry - Certified Gluten Free Bakery with a 100! - Bakeries Near Me - Benson, North Carolina

Stumbled across this gem. (All Gluten Free) Was looking for a local bakery, needed sour dough bread for sandwiches. No sourdough, but bought lots of other things. Bought snickerdoodles for a friend, pineapple cheese cake, a chocolate whoopie pie, apple ring and a loaf of bread. Everything was excellent. Bread made the crispiest grilled cheeses. Apple ring/cake warmed up in the oven, served mine with vanilla ice cream. Lovely. Pop in and see if they have a treat for you. Front house employee was patient and kind. read more

The best Gluten free bakery, bar-none. Breads are soft and not like sawdust. Omg the Everything cheese bread is to die for. Cinnamon rolls, I have eaten half before getting home. All the pastries are amazingly tasty with rich flavors, moist, not dried out like so many gluten free foods. Everything tastes like real food! The available frozen meals are amazing. Don't forget the wonderful biscuits and gravy. Try the lasagna, it is well worth the price. It is the best I have ever had, even compared to the non gluten ones I ate before being diagnosed. Just heavenly to get fresh products out of the oven. https://www.jpspastry.com/locations. Raleigh, Benson, and Greenville NC. YOU WILL NOT REGRET GOING. read more

As you are driving along Route 95 in North Carolina, you will notice a billboard for a Gluten Free products bakery off Exit 79 in Benson. If you or any of your loved ones needs to eat gluten free products, "don't miss this exit!" Turn NW on East Main Street and follow it until you see the railroad crossing. Turn left onto South Railroad Ave and park in one of the angled spots at #111. You are at the home of JP's Pastry. Since my wife recently found that she needed to eat gluten free we stopped to check them out. Joe Parker, Chief Baking Officer has developed many of the best food items every made without gluten. Joe and his bakers produce pastries, breads, biscuits and rolls, Pizzas and pastas, chicken tenders and pot pies and gravy. We bought a load of food and since we spent over $75.00 they put it on ice for us in an insulated travel bag. Eveything that my wife has tried since we arrived back in NJ has been delicious. The ingredients are top shelf and the texture of the flour items has been flaky and not gooey like many other brands of gluten free baked goods. JP's Pastry can also be found online at www.jpspastry.com where you can select items to be conveniently delivered to your home. I highly recommend JP's, not only for the amazing products but because it restores a bit of normalcy in your meals. read more

We first became aware of JPs years ago when they were a vendor at a local gluten free festival. Ever since then, we have been obsessed with this bakery, which boasts being the only certified gluten-free bakery in North Carolina. While they currently wholesale their products at various local stores, we were excited to finally get a chance to visit their storefront. The majority of the building is dedicated to their kitchen facilities. The actual store-front isn't that large. But it was big enough to store all sorts of amazing gluten-free deliciousness! Some of the items are room-temp, while others are refrigerated or frozen. They offer everything from gluten-free chicken nuggets and macaroni and cheese to cinnamon rolls and Hawaiian rolls. The ladies working up front were friendly and personable. While a little out of the way, it is well worth the drive if you are gluten-free!!! read more

Incredibly friendly bakers and delicious GF pastries. They had fresh warm biscuits with gravy, breakfast sandwiches, hot cross buns, and cinnamon buns right out of the oven the Saturday morning we went. A GF dessert paradise. read more

This small storefront caters to those on a gluten-free diet. They have a wide variety of breads, refrigerator items, and frozen items on sale. The cupcakes were so moist that it was hard to believe they were gluten-free. Located close to interstate 95, they have ample parking. It's worth a visit to buy a number e r of items to see what you like, then reorder and let them shop. read more

I'm familiar with JP's from my local Whole Foods, and Lovey's and Apple Annie's in Wilmington also carry their products. So I stopped by on a whim about a year ago and this little store has a great selection of goods! Most items in the store are frozen, which works for me because it means they will have thawed by the time I get home from Benson. Worth a little trip or a stop if you're passing nearby. I have to admit that their cupcakes don't wow me - I've tried a few at different times and the cake always seems too dry. But so many other things I've tried are amazing: love the plain biscuits, the cheesecake bars are divine - pumpkin was a revelation! - and when I stopped by this week, they had fresh chocolate challah bread. See the picture and weep. I'll of course continue to buy JP's locally but will stop for biscuits always! read more

DEDICATED GLUTEN FREE BAKING FACILITY!!! Kelly was absolutely fabulous!!!! I was able to find so many wonderful gluten free products (and some gluten free and vegan) to bring home to New Jersey and I am excited to try every pastry! There are yummies in my bag that I have never even had before including some incredibly soft gluten free pepperoni stuffed breads and gluten free chocolate challah bread. We stopped at The Grind (who carries some of JPs products) on Kelly's suggestion and my son (who has celiac's) got to try one of your brownies and he said he was the quietest he has ever been in the last 900 miles! I will definitely be back the next time we road trip down!! read more

I went to the bakery in Dunn/Benson NC. My favorite treat is the Brookie! It's brownie and cookie dough. I love being able to have lots of options of treats I can have. I am gluten free dairy free. I had more than 5 things to choose from! The presentation of the business is cool too, you can see into the "factory" where they are cooking. I thought that was a neat touch. By the looks they are very clear/sanitary. That gal at the register was sweet and informative sharing the places in Raleigh that sold their items. Best the get there at a good time, limited parking. read more

I am celiac and have severe reaction to gluten. I just picked up and had my first biscuit in YEARS!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! I cannot say enough great things! I am like a kid in a candy story trying a bit of everything I bought! This is wonderful! THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART read more

I was on a road trip and saw this huge sign for a gluten free bakery. I knew on my way back I had to stop here. There is no 100% certified gf bakery near me. Benson seems like a small area in NC. It was very easy to find by GPS. I arrived around 10am and Sara I believe was very nice at the front. I felt so overwhelmed with all of the options. The pricing is fair and I was happy that they carried ice packs as well. I loved how their freezers were organized by gluten free & gluten/vegan. I grabbed a chocolate cupcake, cinnamon roll, crescents & everything Hawaiian rolls. Once I arrived home I definitely had to taste test. The cupcakes was delicious, the cinnamon roll was so great and I wished I got more than 1. The crescents were delicious and lastly the Hawaiian everything rolls were okay. The taste of those were not exactly what I expected. I am mostly excited they will started shipping in Oct! Although a road trip would be fun, knowing I can have these goodies at any time is very exciting. read more

We left the highway traveling from Charleston, SC to Virginia Beach, VA and it was more than worth it. J.P's Gluten Free Bakery is the best I've seen and everyone was so friendly and helpful that we will be back on next trip. After being gluten free for 25 years I think it's the best Gluten Free bakery I've ever seen and we travel to many European countries and throughout the US. It is so exciting to find a bakery like this where there's so much choice. The place is adorable and they will see us again soon. read more

Bring lots of dough you may need both kinds. I have never paid so much for a loaf of bread. The selection was ok I suppose but no prices in the items on the shelves. I thought ok I will give it a try. WOW the sticker shock we paid $23 for a package of rolls and a loaf of Italian bread that was frozen in the middle. So much for taking it home to freeze. I don't need to save the seasoned cardboard loaf anyway. We just could not eat it. I am not sure I will let anyone try this at my house so that went straight to the receptacle. Gluten free is a glutton for punishment. We tried. read more

My sister and I were driving on the highway when we saw a couple signs for a completely gluten free bakery. I was excited and we pulled over. We got a little backwards since we weren't sure which way to go once we got off the exit but we googled GF bakery near us and we were only 2 minutes away. I was DELIGHTED to see they also had vegan options!!! The GF Vegan Carrot Cake is so unbelievably delicious that I can't believe it doesn't have those ingredients. I also sincerely appreciate the very thorough ingredients list on every single item sold. Only downside is the place is very very tiny in there so social distancing is hard. Either way I loved this place. read more

AMAZING!! no other word for it. I Have been coming here for a couple of years now and the items just keep getting more diverse and better tasting, if that is even possible. I live a few states away, but i buy up as much as i can and freeze it, when i do pass. Today we had a cream cheese swirl bread for breakfast. OMG better than any cream cheese pastry i ever had. They even have a Mail order service ! Completely Safe GF. I feel special to have a place to feel normal again. THANK YOU JP. The people towing the boat south. read more

JP's Pastry ... a little place in the small town of Benson, NC right by the railroad ... is huge in fresh, gluten-free goodies. Who knew? Two key billboards on I-95 tipped me off, I got off at exit 79 ... took a 5 minute trip into town, explored, and came out with $85 dollars worth of biscuits, pastry, bread, and fresh pasta. The gluten-free cheesecake portions topped off a couple of great dinners last week ... and the biscuits are going to last all autumn. There's also prepared foods inside as well. Make the detour, bring a cooler with ice and grab what you can! read more

They also have a bunch of cakes and cupcakes and loaf cakes and cheesecake bars and...well, everything is amazing! read more
