Top 46 Gluten-Free Allergen-Friendly Spots Across Boston

Gabriele Phillips

Lots of gluten free options!

Kristin Knowlton

Very loud and a tad over priced. Best gluten free pizza crust in the area. Most, if not all the dishes I sampled needed salt, but otherwise delicious and excellent ingredients.

Raena Woods

Delicious gluten free donuts! Friendly staff and great service

Bret Warren

Great food. Very easy to order online and identify food allergies.

Sabina Sokol

I’m gluten and dairy free and was very excited about this place despite the mixed reviews. I got a brownie cupcake for $6 and it just tasted like extremely sugary dough. I was very disappointed and will not be coming here again.

Noelle Ernst

Went here with my partner and his sister who are both gluten and dairy free. As many others have said, they are incredible with handling allergies. The siblings were so excited to go to an Italian restaurant and have plentiful options. They had the gluten free bread (more of a soft thin pita) with garlic oil, a pasta with meat, garlic oil, and veggies, and a gluten free pizza with various toppings (note they do not have a DF cheese). They said the meal was amazing! They also have a gluten free beer, which is always a hit when we can find one. I had the drunken lobster noodle which was sooo delicious. Huge portions and very kind staff. Managed to get a walk-in table on 4th of July. 10/10 would go again!

I had heard a lot about Legal Sea Food and had been advised to try it out especially as they pride themselves in gluten free fish fry and have other fried items all dedicated gf . We started with the house sangrias : one red & one white . Refreshing especially on a hot and humid summer evening . Ordered the classic fish and chips prepared gluten free (no pictured) and the cod that was salt-vinegar crusted with a bed of bacon slaw , potato wedges and a lightly mustard remoulade. Delicious dish . Fish was perfectly cooked and crispy . The sauce was just right and tied it all together . Staff was a bit slow but there was a huge amount of people during peak times so they tried to keep up . I could have had more sangrias but it was a little hard to flag staff down . Not a big concern . The food was excellent ! Although I had been told no reservations were needed I was glad I made them in advanced as the place was hoping and can get a little loud . Very nice experience will be back next time in Boston

Amazing mexi food! The tacos were awesome and basically everything on the menu (besides dessert) is gluten free. We got a bunch of tacos to try and the guac, which was so flavorful and a decent portion size. Pork belly taco was the best imo, also so fun to try the fried fish (I was told it’s fried in rice flour/batter). Watermelon marg was delicious. They have outdoor seating, but it’s not the nicest views (street/parking lot) and indoors is a nice atmosphere, so I’d recommend going inside

Lewis Beynon

Fantastic spot for interesting, creative food without breaking the bank. 1 drink and enough food we all left satisfied was only 120 bucks total for a table of 4. Our servers were fantastic and the kitchen and serving staff were very accommodating of my girlfriend's celiac concerns. Absolutely fantastic.

Samantha Patterson

Having visited this establishment on several occasions, I have consistently found the food to be delightful. My nephew and I often encounter challenges in locating dining options that cater to our dietary needs, as he has a gluten allergy and I have a dairy allergy. However, the staff here have always been incredibly friendly, kind, and accommodating. The food is consistently served promptly and prepared to perfection. I would certainly recommend this place for a quick and enjoyable meal.

Anna Diemer

Celebrated our fifth anniversary here while visiting Boston! I was so jazzed that the menu offered so many gluten free options. We enjoyed the oysters, mozzarella sticks (gluten free!!!), octopus, lobster, and bolognese. Finished with peach sorbetto. It is an investment but was absolutely worth the culinary experience. My partner’s fave was the octopus with crispy guanciale. Excellent drinks as well!

Pegah Hosseinpour

Very tasty food with good service. Gluten free options. Careful and knowledgeable staff for the dietary restrictions.

I almost cried I was so happy to have a lovely afternoon gf and df tea with my kiddo! Absolutely delicious!

Raena Woods

Great selection of gluten free treats. I was thrilled how much care the server took and my meal even had a little toothpick that said gluten free. So reassuring!

Marcia Renner

Our experience at Libertine was excellent. The food was delicious. The gluten free options were outstanding. Sarah our server was very knowledgeable and so helpful not only for our dinner but our stay in Boston. Definitely recommend!

Hannah

had both the sushi bites and the poke and both were amazing. loved the restaurant was so friendly for gluten free people. Tried the fire luau bowl and it was delicious, it was a great portion too. the sauce options for the sushi bite were delicious. the passionfruit vinaigrette in particular was amazing but the spicy mayo and pineapple aioli were also great.

Adrian Baker

Great, quick stop on the Freedom Trail. Good lobster rolls, and they have gluten free rolls as well. Drink selection is nice with a variety of bottled sodas from a company in Maine. They also had water, Coca-Cola, and diet Coca-Cola.

Emily Aldous

Food was delicious, server was kind and very accommodating of my friend who has celiac! She even marked up the menu with all the foods that she could and couldn’t eat to make it easier for her. We both got paellas and oh my god the portion is HUGE so if you are going with another person make sure to share it btw the two of you. Great dinner spot in the city

Jana Scholten

If you're looking for flavorful food and healthy options, give this place a try! Delicious! Gluten-free and vegetarian options are available too. You'll need more than one taco to fill you up. Yummy food so worth it!

Keith Dosik

This place is so cool! Great vibes, friendly and quick servers plus the food is fantastic. All of the gluten free options are delicious, especially the churros. It was really fun to be able to eat tacos and oysters at the same time.

Matthew Fanning

Two guys working on Sunday afternoon. We walked in to a few folks at the bar and an empty set of tables. Didn’t look promising. We were pleasantly surprised from start to finish. The after show rush filled up the place in 20 minutes and the place got busy! The guys were humping, but did a great job taking care of everyone we saw in the place, despite looking short handed. Food was all good, solid pub fare. North shore roast beef took me back to Ipswich. The number of gluten free options was awesome to see.

Cassidy

This place is incredible. As a gluten-free girl, traveling with her dairy-free friend, food can be a challenge. This place had plenty of options to meet both of our dietary restrictions. I had this zucchini/corn fritter bowl. It was incredible. They also offer specialty coffees, salads, acai, all fresh and beautiful. This is a perfect summer spot for a cool meal. The prices were also strikingly reasonable, especially for Boston. The vibe is also brilliant. The colors are vibrant, and the energy is high. I loved every aspect of Life Alive!

Max Cooperman

The two workers there on 5/31 were super nice. Definitely ask for a sample if you don’t know what you want. I should note that everything is dairy free which was awesome to hear! I got the birthday cake ice cream which was delicious and also a 7 layer bar which was soooooo good and also gluten free. Definitely coming back soon!

Kerry-Ann Parsons

Really cool place, easy to do a takeout order. Lots of parking around. I had the Gluten free fish and chips with fries. Pretty good, but not excellent. I was glad to find gluten free, dairy free and soy free in Boston.

Jenna Goddard

Amazing Indian food with tons of gluten free options

QFamily

Our server Vivian was excellent - professional, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The food and wine were great too (as always). We really appreciate all of the gluten free options as well and the gluten free rolls are delicious.

Naomi Schneider

Truly most amazing gluten free dining experience I’ve had since being diagnosed in may. Gluten free bread which was wonderful and in a separate bowl from the normal bread. Everything fried is gluten free so I ate the calamari which was delicious. I ordered sushi and they gave me gluten free soy sauce. Overall, they are very accommodating and will make sure you are eating safe and make you are satisfied! I highly recommend if you are in the area!

Sam White

Top-notch staff and top-notch smoothies for every occasion made from high quality ingredients. Dedicated gluten-free with a few baked goods as well.

Coco Poco

Had egg sandwich which was extremely salty and focaccia they used was cold. They give you a number plaque if you dine in, it makes you think they would bring it to you like tatte. They don’t, so I sat down while my sandwich sat cold on the counter… so why don’t they tell you to just wait by the counter? I liked them when I first visited them… not many pastries I wanted to try. Maybe it’s catering vegans or gluten free?

Julia Mitra

Tons of gluten free options!

Nicole Pallardy

Got takeout here for the first time and was blown away by the gluten free pizza. Crust was light and soft which isn’t usually the case with gf. Feta salad also on point! We will definitely be regulars!

C T

The last three times we have been here, the fish has come out still frozen on the inside. The fried haddock used to be fresh (a work of art) but it appears they have pivoted to buying frozen fried haddock and tossing it into the fryer which does not completely cook the frozen fish. We also received beans with macaroni bits in it. My household has celiac's so we did not appreciate the cross contamination. Overall the quality has gone wildly downhill. You are better off just cooking at home.

Andrea Nault

Great meal and friendly service! They were very accommodating about my daughter’s gluten allergy as well!

Tamara Murad

The food was good. Loved the concept of making your own pizza. The servers/cooks were kinda rude. But we still liked the food. They have gluten free options.

Julia A. Gálvez Delgado

I recently dined at Boston Ale House and had a fantastic experience. The food was delicious, offering a diverse range of options, including impressive gluten-free choices. The ambience was welcoming and enhanced the overall dining atmosphere. A special shoutout to our waitress, Juliana, whose exceptional service and attentiveness added to the enjoyment of our evening. Highly recommend this place for a satisfying dining experience.

Angela DeSousa

Oh god, most delicious gluten free vegan ramen I've ever had. Full stop.

Ruby Anderson

Amazing customer service and amazing food. Hot pot is delicious and servers are the kindest people and are very patient with people who are new to hot pot. Also coming from someone with celiac very gluten free friendly, I was able to eat everything I wanted on the menu

Larissa W

My mom & I are traveling and stopped here to eat dinner. We spoke with Benson (Manager) who was very knowledgeable and caring to help my mother who has SEVERE celiac. We got seated and ordered. They gave my mom a gluten free menu and she ordered the pasta with chicken and sausage. My mom loved it and was satisfied. Benson came back to check on us and we had such a lovely conversation with her. We will be coming back! Thanks again, Benson!!

I live in Atlanta and unfortunately my go to location has closed so I thought I'd try something familiar in Boston. Off rip I noticed the food seemed fresher than Atl locations... don't tell. I ordered: guac & chips, Duck tacos (they could of held the load of onions) Baja fish tacos that I LOVE because they're GLUTEN FREE & FRIED

Lina Samawi

Sam, our server, was awesome! Food was great, cocktails and desserts too! Highly recommend! The place was packed yet the service was on point!! I’m gluten free and Sam attended to my needs perfectly! Even the manager came out to church on me .

Carly Puccio

We came here last night with a big group and Alejandro was our waiter. He went above and beyond to recommend multiple dishes to us and our friend who is gluten free. He marked up her menu of everything she can and can’t have with recommended substitutions for her. It was super helpful for us! He was extremely passionate about the food at Committee and a great waiter, always checking in and pacing out our food for us. As always, the food and drinks were great. The lamb meatballs, veal milanese, and zucchini chips were a big hit at our table! Excited to come back again & please let Alejandro know he did an amazing job!

Catherine Nikkel

We found our way here because of its gluten free recommendations. And I'm told they did not disappoint. In fact, we went here on back to back days because of its selections and overall freshness of the food. The inside is very aesthetically pleasing + love the exposed white brick walls and the displays of sweets is pretty stunning. We enjoyed sandwiches, desserts, cappuccinos-- everything was delicious. Wishing we had one here in Toronto to be honest! Such a great spot.

Really great experience at Yellow Door Taqueria, conveniently by the Ink Block development. They have lots of outdoor tables, bookable on OpenTable, including some under the overhang (for minor drizzle protection) but still fully open-air. Food was delicious and fairly priced, and service was excellent. I listed out all my food allergies and Raffy handled me with aplomb – making me confident in and happy with all the food I got! There's a dedicated gluten-free frier for the chips but it does have seafood cooked in it, so they were kind enough to bring me some cute sliced corn tortillas to have with their delicious house-made guacamole for an appetizer. I can highly recommend the birria tacos (pan-fried and cheesy with excellent barbacoa) and chicken tinga taco (delicious on the plain, house-made corn tortilla). Rice and beans were ok – beans dramatically lardy and rice a little mushy, but ok. The kitchen was thoughtful enough to sub the 'avocado frito' on the chicken tinga for some plain avocado for me. Overall, an excellent experience for delicious tacos, with great outdoor dining and good care for my dietary restrictions. $60 subtotal for a party of two with chips and guacamole and 2-3 hearty tacos and sides but no drinks; more like $90 for two with drinks.
