Why Choose The Witchin’ Kitchen?

The Witchin' Kitchen is highly regarded for its commitment to gluten-free dining, with an extensive menu that lets coeliac customers eat without cross-contamination concerns. The pancakes and sweet treats draw regular praise, and the staff handle busy service with genuine care, even welcoming dogs and getting diners seated promptly when it's packed.

About The Witchin’ Kitchen

Gluten-free eaters around Sandgate tend to know The Witchin' Kitchen well. It's a cafe more than a classic bakery, but the cabinet of sweet treats is a big part of the draw, and the menu offers gluten-free options. One local with a coeliac daughter was impressed by how well the gluten-free pancakes and a passionfruit meringue tart held up, and another coeliac was glad to eat somewhere without worrying about cross contamination.

The all-day menu runs from breakfast through to lunch. Eggs benedict (including a halloumi version), chilli scrambled eggs, apple cinnamon pancakes and banana bread french toast all come up often, and so does the old skool burger, which the chef will happily advise you to share. Smoothies get a mention too, with the dragonfruit one singled out as worth a try. There are vegetarian and vegan options, kids' meals, and sweets like the cherry ripe slice and a treat called the Betty Bruce. The sweets go quickly, so it pays to grab them early.

You can dine in, take away or arrange kerbside pickup, and catering is available. There's plenty of covered outdoor seating that suits a visit with the dog, and it's an easy stop before or after a walk along the Sandgate foreshore. Staff are friendly and have a reputation for squeezing people in when the place is flat out, though one local suggests booking for larger groups.

One visitor found the food ordinary, and another felt portions were a little small for the price. Coffee isn't made on site, so you'll be sent to the cafe next door, which one local rates highly.

Check the hours before you head in, as the cafe is closed some days each week.
