I visited Pushkin's for the first time today, and I was so very impressed. As someone who only recently had to change to a gluten free diet, it's been hard to find gluten free alternatives for some of my favorite pastries. Pushkin's has such a wide variety, and they're the first place I've ever found that has gluten free hot cross buns. I also tried the vegan po boy sandwich, and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had! Between the quality of the food and the kind service of the employees, Pushkin's is going to be a required stop for me every time that I'm in Sacramento. read more

GF Sacramento, y'all are so lucky to have Pushkin's. Stopped in for some treats and was blown away. Since being diagnosed with Celiac disease, it's been difficult. I live in a small town a couple of hours from Sac and the only "gluten free" place is In & Out Burger. And it's a 50/50 chance you'll get glutened. Felt like a kid again no joke. And not only was everything dedicated gluten free, but absolutely delicious! Cinnamon roll was fantastic. So were these small little pockets of joy, can't remember the names. Breakfast sandwich was flavorful. Usually gf baked goods are dried out hockey pucks. Everything I ordered was full of moist wonder. Excited to go back, definitely worth a special trip. Please continue to support Pushkin's bakery! Such a gem read more

Alright, so Pushkin's is pretty cool for those of us with dietary restrictions. I'm vegan, so of course I love a bakery with more than like, one option, and Pushkin's delivers on that front. On a recent visit, I asked what was a popular choice and that's how I ended up with a barracuda cupcake, which was pretty delicious. I also got a "breakfast" sandwich, the #4, which sort of tasted like a non-breakfast sandwich, but whatever. It was spicy and tasty, but nothing to write home about. Luckily there is a whole vegan menu, so I would happily try another sandwich on a return visit. I also love that this place charges extra to sub meat, and not to sub vegan (which is how it should be, frankly). The spot itself is small, with not a lot of seating, which makes it better as a place to grab stuff to go. The downside of this is that parking is absolutely terrible, so I ended up parking four or five blocks away. read more

I recently went to Pushkin's Bakery in Midtown and overall it was a great find. One thing that really stands out is that everything is gluten free and dairy free, which is pretty amazing considering the variety of pastries they offer. I ordered my birthday cake from them and the presentation was exactly as expected. It looked beautiful and festive. The only thing I noticed was that it seemed like there was a bit more frosting than cake, but it was still enjoyable. I also tried their lemon bar, which was honestly insanely delicious. Definitely one of the highlights. The No Names were also really yummy. Overall, if you like trying unique bakeries or just really good bakeries in general, this is definitely a spot worth checking out. Service is 10/10 read more

Gluten free everything? And it tastes amazingly scrumpdilocious!? Unheard of!! My bff is gluten free and I always feel bad how she has to limit herself ordering at a restaurant. Not at Pushkin, everything off the menu is gluten free with no sacrifice on flavor or moistness. The orange cardomom bread was insanely moist, crumbly, decadent, you could taste the orange and the cardamom it was a perfect flavor profile. The chocolate cupcake was so light and fluffy, incredible! I also tried the new yorker sandwich and the gluten free bread held together well and the toppings were plentiful, lots of meat! I am so impressed with Pushkins that I almost think this is as close as you get to modern day sorcery! Even us non gluten free mortals will be delighted to eat this all the time because it's just so delicious! Highly highly recommend! read more

Lovely bakery here in Sacramento. My family and I were greeted with a warm welcome upon walking in and we were asked if it was our first time visiting and were given a little information about the restaurant. We were excited to know that all their items were gluten and dairy free! We ordered a whole assortment of things and practically everything was delicious! A lot of my family didn't really like the blueberry muffin but I personally thought it was alright! Some of my favorite things were the No Name, Oatmeal Pie (not pictured), and the Blueberry Cinnamon Coffee cake. Definitely a must try bakery especially if you're looking for gluten & dairy free goods. read more

Same old, lame ingredients (gluten free cupcakes, bread just not that good. They always use a ton of sugar so if you're diabetic/pre-diabetic just be careful. Always expensive.

We stopped at Pushkin's to grab ourselves some sweet treats. Parking was not ideal and we had to walk a few blocks, so be prepared for that. The cupcakes were delicious. I believe my favorite was a chocolate mint flavor and the other treats were nice as well. The cookies were a bit dry for me but otherwise it was quite enjoyable. I will definitely be back to try some more of their offerings soon. read more

In short: -Hole in the wall bakery - gf df pastries and sandwiches - friendly staff - Tasty treats This is a tiny hole in the wall bakery right next to the Sacramento food coop. Parking is very limited unless you park at the food Coop. Stopped by here the other day for the first time since my sister was in town and she is gf and df. She got 3 pastries and seem to enjoy them all. I got a blueberry cinnamon coffee cake and thought it was tasty, moist on the inside but crumbly on top but would prob try a blackberry vanilla scone next time or something else since everything looked so good! I'd stop by again to try another yummy pastry. Def when I'm doing a gluten free and dairy free diet or if you have celiac or an allergy to dairy since they use almond milk. Dang, I forgot to snap a picture! Next time My friend said the breakfast sandwiches are really good too fyi. I'd like to try their bakery in Roseville with a larger menu read more

First of all, the aroma of the bakery is tantalizing. Imagine a floating, drooling person making their way to the storefront, essentially. It's hard not to swing in every time you pass by. The no-names are one of the most interesting treats I've encountered. It's almost a hybrid of a cinnamon bun mochi bite, perfectly flavorful with such a unique texture, they're utterly addictive. I did add an egg to the sandwhich but was unfortunately forgotten, no biggie but definitely would've taken the breakfast sandwich to the next level. Will be back, of course, again & again & again &...... read more

Opened as a result of Danny Turner's own Food-sensitivities Pushkin's Bakery has expanded from a single Chocolate Chip Cookie in 2013 to three locations, Olga Turner's taking on a growing need for better quality Pastries excluding wheat, gluten, and dairy. Sold in Sacramento, Arden, Roseville plus more than a dozen grocery stores it is at the original on 29th Street that guests will find friendly service plus fair prices covering Cookies, Cakes, Breads, Muffins and their famous "No Name" that eats like the buttery center of a Cinnamon Roll. Visited around 2pm Saturday, a good assortment of products still available, suffice it to say that Russian Tea Balls, essentially Mexican Wedding Cookies, lose nothing missing Flour while Crinkles and Mudpies are essentially the same save for a layer of Powdered Sugar. Smart to stick with items easily made Gluten-free, this writer admittedly harboring no allergies, Pushkin's Oatmeal Cream Pie Cookie fares beautifully with a lot of bright aromatics and flexibility around just enough filling. read more

This is what I was given last week for a grilled cheese sandwich. It was bread and pesto. I go in often, so today I showed the Team Lead and asked for a comp on today's order. She said that is the normal sandwich and there is nothing she can do because I didn't call that day and she doesn't know who to hold responsible in the kitchen. Shouldn't be my problem. No longer a customer. read more

Okayyyy gluten free peeps I see you! Was craving a sandwich and needed one ASAP; luckily, my wonderful husband recommended Pushkin's! Now I was doubtful at first. I can do gluten free desserts, but was wary about the bread part of the sandwich. Pushkin's was so good though! I opted for the "Peppy" and it was just my cup of tea! Sweet from the fig jam, fresh from the veggies! If you like a sweeter sandwich, this is right up your alley. The bread is different than what I'm used to but it did not distract from the overall great and filling sandwich. Solid price point too. Would definitely recommend if you need a sandwich (especially if you're gluten free) and are in the area. Yum! read more

Pushkin's Bakery has a great vegan-friendly menu, especially for breakfast and brunch. The breakfast sandwiches are really good, the pancakes are solid, and I love that they even offer vegan pastries -- which isn't always easy to find. It's a nice spot to go for brunch or breakfast, whether you're vegan or not. The breakfast sandwiches were my favorite, and the hashbrowns are smacking. Everything I tried was enjoyable, and I'd definitely come back. read more

We tried 3 different items from this gluten-free bakery (that also has items which are vegan!). The zucchini loaf in particular was delicious. We also had a chocolate cupcake and chocolate chip muffin. All the treats were still moist the day after. The staff was knowledgeable about my food allergy questions. We wish this bakery was closer to home -- the prices were very reasonable for allergen-safe options. read more

Went by Pushkin's Bakery for Mother's Day! My mom likes to try vegan treats so I figured this is the perfect spot to pick up breakfast. I was afraid it was going to be really busy and limited parking since it's in Midtown, but I ended up finding a spot pretty easily on the street. There was a bit of a crowd outside the shop and a line inside but it went by super quickly. I probably spent a total of 10 minutes visiting. It's definitely more of a takeout format. They had many options but definitely less vegan options than regular options. They were also out of a few treats, and i arrived about 30 minutes after they opened. Just something to consider! I ended up getting 4 goodies (total $16 ish). I got the blueberry lemon muffin, strawberry cobbler cupcake, cinnamon roll, and apple muffin. All of them were delish! I love that you can tell how fresh they are. Consistency was always fluffy, and the flavor was never too sweet. Perfection. My favorite has to be the apple muffin. Keep in mind, only the blue berry lemon poppy muffin was vegan from my purchase. I look forward to ordering here again and trying more treats! read more

Despite Pushkin's popularity and wealth of reviews, I'm not really sure if I could've found this place on my own...literally. Never mind the fact that the address lists 29th St - I'm not sure if I would've found the entrance without doing a lap around the building (I assumed the entrance was on the other side of the building where the Temple Coffee/the parking lot is. Honestly, I blame it on the fact that there wasn't a line out the door, which is something you just get accustomed to seeing outside just about every popular bakery in SF. Then again, I'm not exactly complaining about that either...ha! While they may not be the biggest bakery out there (anywhere, let alone in Sacramento), the full slate of what Pushkin's has to offer is surprisingly extensive. On any given day, the day's offerings will span a varied selection of their full collection of pastries and baked goodies to choose from, such as scones, coffee cakes, cookies, scones, and buns. What's more, they have a variety of sandwiches to offer as well, including both breakfast sandwiches and "lunch" sandwiches with both meat and vegan options. In all, the vast majority of items look really interesting, but what might be especially appealing is they have goodies for folks with dietary restrictions, whether you're vegan, have a gluten sensitivity, and/or have dairy allergies. -- BREAKFAST SANDWICH #2 - Mayo, Green Tangy Dressing, Egg, Ham, and Cheese...$9.99 This was terrific! The ham, egg, and cheese complemented each other perfectly and contrasted well against the dressing (which was only slightly tangy). However, I wish this had some tomato or red onion for some sweet freshness. -- MEYER LEMON COFFEE CAKE...$4.35 A little on the sweet side (there's a fair amount of icing), but this is, easily, my favorite baked item here. The coffee cake is moist and not overly dense/heavy, but what I love most is how much Meyer lemon flavor it has. -- BREAKFAST SANDWICH #1 - Mayo, Pesto, Egg, bacon, Tomato, Avocado, and Spinach...$9.99 Not quite as good as #2, but still very solid. Ironically, this had the reverse issue - while I liked the spinach and thick cuts of tomatoes, I wish there was another slice of bacon to add more meatiness to the sandwich. -- TOASTED ALMOND APPLE CAKE...$4.85 I've had mixed experiences with similar pastries elsewhere, but this one was great! The interior of the cake was a little wet (presumably from the apples), but I liked how well the almond and apple flavors worked together. -- CINNAMON BUN...$3.25 Although the bottom of the bun felt a little overcooked (very dark in color), the taste of this was pretty decent. The wealth of icing certainly helped, but I liked how the bun itself wasn't overly sweet and had a nice hit of cinnamon in it. -- MORNING BUN...$3.25 Honestly, this was very...meh. While it wasn't awful by any means, it wasn't all that interesting ether. The texture was moist, but other than the sliced almonds on top, the bun itself didn't have a strong taste of anything to me. -- NEW YORKER SANDWICH - Salami, Soppressata, Provolone, Onion, Tomato, Pepperoncini, Iceberg Lettuce, Yellow Mustard, and Oregano Vinaigrette...$10.99 The bread didn't do much for me (it fell apart quickly), but hard not to like such classic flavors. Plus, they didn't skimp on the meat, as there was a lot of soppressata and salami. I just wish the veggies didn't make the bread so soggy. One thing that I will say is that across everything I've tried, though more so with regards to the sandwiches, the portion sizes feel a little light. I get why that is the case with the pastries (comparatively small batches), but neither of the breakfast sandwiches felt all that hefty for the money. The same could be said about the New Yorker, but at least that one was packed with salami and mortadella. That said, it's not the biggest complaint, as the ingredients all tasted fresh and tasted of a better quality. While I've managed to try a number of things so far, the one thing I can't speak to are the cupcakes, muffins, or the cakes. However, from the look of them in the display case, they all look pretty appealing (I just tend to gravitate towards their other offerings). Even though Pushkin's isn't exactly in my neighborhood, I'd definitely look to come back for their Meyer Lemon Coffee Cake or one of their breakfast sandwiches, especially now that I know where they are! read more

Heard of this place for a while now and just haven't made it here until now. After a good lunch next door, we wanted a sweet treat - gluten free. The shop is sandwiched between Sacramento Co-op and Revolutionary Wine & Kitchen, also Temple Coffee Roaster. They had so many delicious selections and all gluten free! The staff was patient with me when I was trying to decide what to get and I sounded like a kid in a candy store lol. It would be one of the few times for me to try gluten free baked goods and to my surprise, they did not disappoint. I had a crème filled sandwich cookie. OMG, it was sooooooooooooooooooo good!! You wouldn't be able to tell that it was gluten-free. I savored the cookie while getting a coffee afterwards. I will definitely come back for other baked goods! read more

Didn't realize this place was gluten, wheat and dairy free. This totally explains why everything was super disappointing and underwhelming. I didn't want to get anything but my boyfriend felt too awkward leaving. He ended up getting a VERY pale and scary looking apple something scone for $4. He was the only one of us took a bite of it. It was straight up baked flour--no apples in sight. I grabbed a chunk of the scone and it got crumbs EVERYWHERE. I pinched it between my thumb and pointer finger... It literally crumbled into dust. That's how dry it was. Cupcakes and muffins looked small and sad. A mini cupcake (like the ones you get at Walmart or target for kids birthdays) was $3. The mini loafs looked cute and the sorbet sounded good. The place was cute and chic. Clean and aesthetic. I'm sure people who are gluten, wheat and dairy intolerant will love this place! It's hard finding something accessible, but if you are not gluten intolerant... you'll be very disappointed. read more

In a word, WOW! Danny Turner best gluten free baguette ever! And I'm not gluten intolerant but my best friend is. She's visiting from Maine and I stopped by to get some baguettes and sandwich bags. We had the baguette for breakfast and she even explained how delicious it was. Thank you so much for the excellent service when I stopped by. I had ordered an advance at my order was raining. I also got a couple of lemon poppy seed muffin's called Awesome. The bakery on 29th Street was as shiny and pretty as I remember. Cases full of delicious baked goods. Obviously doing a great job - people were waiting for sandwiches and a small line ahead of placing orders. Wish we had Pushkins in Chico. read more

The OG of gluten-free magic! We went to Pushkin's restaurant, Sibling, that morning so had to stop by their bakery on our way out of town. And it was worth it. If I came again, I'd come as early as possible to get a better pick from the bakery items for the day! When we arrived post-lunch around noon, things were really picked over. There was a bit of a line forming but only because the space inside is teeny tiny. This is a takeout only operation - no seating available inside and a few picnic benches outside. But don't worry, the line moves fast! We got: Lemon pound cake Awesomes (lemon poppyseed muffins) Cran Walnut muffin Cowboy cookie Oatmeal cran pecan cookie Banana bread And each dang thing was delicious. Moist, flavorful, well-baked. And gluten free!! If I come back, I'll get a sandwich as well - they looked amazing. Prices were very reasonable for the awesome quality and gluten-free effort. read more

As someone who enjoys pastries but doesn't have dairy, I'm always worried that the baked goods I eat contain ingredients I can't consume. Luckily, that's not the issue at Pushkin's Bakery as they're dairy, gluten, and wheat free! My best friend and I came in the morning to grab pastries. The bakery is quite small and quaint. Ordering is simple--view the display case and menu, place your order, and pay. The line moves fast since it's takeout only. The workers do a good job juggling the line and are prompt. Looking at the display case, it's like we hit the jackpot! Plenty of classic and specialty cupcakes, scones, cookies, and other baked goods up for grabs. I grabbed two pastries: Orange Cardamom Pound Cake and the Pumpkin Chocolate Coffee Cake. My best friend and got the Toasted Almond Apple Cake. The pound cake was superb--subtle citrus flavor, sweet icing, and a dense yet moist texture. I'd get it again! If you're looking for a family-owned bakery dedicated to being gluten, wheat, and dairy free then make the push to visit Pushkin's Bakery! Their Midtown location is one of two with tasty goodies and free parking in the back lot. I'm grateful my best friend shared this diamond in the rough for vegan and non-vegan customers! read more

I had an appointment nearby and decided to stop by to get a sandwich for lunch plus some other goodies to go. I ordered a turkey bacon sandwich. They said they ran out of bacon. I was ok with it. The sandwich didn't taste great. The bread was very dry and hard. I've been here before and it is not usually this way. I could not eat the bread after a few bites. I just rolled the lettuce up with everything inside and ate the sandwich that way. I was totally disappointed. The baked goods were pretty good. I brought it home after work to share with my husband. He didn't like the banana cake. I usually love banana cake, but not this one. The mudpie cookie was on the hard side. I get this often. It is usually chewing and really good. It's one of my favorites. The blueberry muffin was really good. It was moist and tasty. The zucchini bread and the crinkle cookie were really good also. My husband's favorite was the crinkle cookie. I was really disappointed with the sandwich and with some of the bake goods. I spent over $40 in this place. Some of the items are on the expensive side for a small little item. I don't ever remember this place being like this. read more

Came there for cookies and a muffin. They had vegan options and they were good. Got their sandwich and loved it, too. Was really fresh and filling. It took a while to make it, but was worth the wait.

Their pastries and baked goods are really delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the cafe has a cozy, welcoming vibe.

My family and I were enjoying a meal at a nearby restaurant, when my sister mentioned that her favorite bakery was just a few doors down from us. I had never actually been inside a Pushkin's Bakery before, because my boyfriend had always placed cake orders online and by phone, then picked up the orders on the way to our designated party. After eating brunch, we were interested in purchasing pastries to take home for later. The interior had a small display case with some freshly baked gluten free muffins, cookies and cupcakes. We eagerly splurged and stocked up on muffins and banana bread. I was able to bring them home and freeze for later enjoyment in the days ahead. As I mentioned before, my sister has to avoid gluten and dairy, or else! So it's reassuring to know that Pushkin's Bakery is available for the dietary restricted, and offers a variety of delicious baked goods that satisfy any sweet tooth without gastrointestinal discomfort later... read more
