About Merak GF ARTISAN DELI CAFE
Merak GF is a 100% gluten-free deli cafe and bakery in Redland Bay, Queensland, and the whole place is built around the idea that there's room for everyone at the table. Everything on the menu is gluten free, so coeliacs can walk in and order whatever they like without having to quiz the kitchen. They hold accreditation from Coeliac Australia, and everyone eats from the same menu.
It runs as a proper all-day cafe rather than a quick bakery stop. You can dine in or take away, with outdoor seating, and it suits families with kids. Breakfast, brunch and lunch are covered, and the evening trade is there too on some nights, so check the hours before you head in. Coffee, vegetarian and vegan options and catering are all on offer, and they take custom cake orders if you've got an occasion coming up.
The food is fresh from the oven, and the treats in the cabinet are worth a look. You can also buy their homemade bread and brioche buns to take home, which is a rare find for anyone avoiding gluten. People rave about the lemon cheesecake meringue dessert, the jam drops, the brioche brekky burger, eggs benedict and the pizzas. Portions come across as generous, and prices are seen as fair, particularly for fully gluten-free fare.
Service is a big part of the story. One regular says the baristas know their coffee order, and another person happily recalls staff opening the doors to feed them close to closing time. The team is friendly and welcoming, and families who've been coming for years say they feel looked after.
One or two people have found the cooking a little inconsistent, with eggs and waffles not quite right, though the staff were apologetic and keen to fix it.
If you're in Redland Bay and need a safe, relaxed spot for a gluten-free meal, a coffee or a loaf to take home, Merak is an easy one to put on the list.
