Don't come here because it's gluten-free, come here because the food is delicious, because it's an independent shop, fighting the good fight & still offering you an insanely good deal & - above all - because the staff are super friendly. I stopped in for two sandwiches & an espresso, all of which were frickin' amazing & left a little over an hour later having had a wide-ranging, heart-warming conversation with Gordy, the owner. He's doing what he does out of a passion for good food & his community. Come for the food, stay for the passion.

stumbled across this spot accidentally whilst record shopping. So delicious, reasonably priced, & Gordy is a legend. His daughter's hand drawings on the walls are the cherry on top of a gluten free masterpiece 🤌🏼

Excellent variety of gluten free foods in this shop for your pantry. Also, the grilled cheese & chicken parm (crepe-to-go style) was delicious & an incredible value! We will be back! Thank you!

*NO GLUTEN, NUTS, SHELLFISH, or PORK is handled on the premises.

Delicious, freshly-made & affordable food awaits you here. I asked Chef Gordy to surprise me with any two made-to-order hot pocket/sealed sandwiches (Poulet/Chicken Parm & Super Mario). Even after a 30 minute commute the sandwiches were flavourful, stayed surprisingly warm & did not fall apart (which is WILD for gluten-free anything - IYKYK).

Along with a 2 drinks, a green seed cookie & a fabric bag, the total bill came to about $25.00. This is incredibly affordable by any measure!

Most importantly, Gordy is a kind local proprietor & proud of providing quality, nutritious & affordable meals to the community. Below is a picture of chimichurri for sale in the shop. I'll be back to La Bolo à Lolo next time I'm in Montréal for sure! :)

Truly the most wonderful experience & incredible food. The most fun, fully gluten free shop that's so carefully crafted. The menu is thoughtful & you can't help but smile when you taste the food. The ladyfingers are a must, the pistachio was my personal favorite. Gordy, the owner, is an absolute gem & we ended up talking in an empty shop for 45 minutes. He makes you feel like an old friend. Incredible food made with so much love, give it a stop & you won't regret it! I'll stop by again next time I'm in Montreal!

This was my favourite place to eat while visiting Montreal. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting whether you're gluten free or not.

The owner, Gordie, has made a one stop shop with delicious made to order food items as well as shelves full of delicious gluten free foods. He has tailored his restaurant to both maximizing the quality of the food & selling it at an incredibly affordable cost. My friends & I really enjoyed chatting with him as he's an incredibly friendly & kind person.

I'm so happy I discovered this shop! I'm celiac but my partner isn't, we both ordered a sandwich & it was the best one I've had since I stopped eating gluten! My partner liked it so much he wanted to order a second one! You can also buy fantastic gluten free products like wafers from Italy!

The owner is also lovely conversationalist!

I loved finding this gem. Has hot food, coffee, bakery items, snacks & a selection of gluten free foods to take & prepare at home. Perfect place for someone needing to get stuff for a gluten free guest or host.

Pricing was insanely cheap. I got a cafe, 2 cookies & 2 sandwiches for less than it would be in US for one sandwich.

Sandwiches are made with a gluten free wrap, which I'm usually not a fan of, but instead of detracting from meal like most GF'bread' products, it made it more enjoyable & easy to eat.

This shop took the ease out of traveling & searching for safe food to eat. Non-gluten eaters would be happy eating here. Lots of flavor.

I have celiac & can here for lunch with some friends & we had a great time. We didn't wait long, the owner was welcoming, & the food was comforting & delicious. Part of the shop is also a 100% gluten free market with some great choices so that was also amazing as a celiac.

The owner of this shop is the friendliest man ever! He was so welcoming & kind to my friends & I from NY who do not speak French so we had trouble reading things & he was more than happy to help us decide what we wanted! The best thing is, my friend who has celiac disease could have LITERALLY ANYTHING in the whole shop! My friend was so excited & the owner was so happy to see it! He makes the sandwiches & drinks right in front of you & everything was delicious! On top of all that, my friends & I were soaking wet & cold from the rain & he was more than happy to let us sit & eat in his shop & he talked with us! He is an amazing man running an amazing business! 10 out of 10 recommend!!!!!
