Top 46 Gluten-Free Beer Havens Across Ontario

My husband has celiac and so we never eat anywhere that is 100% GF. I had read great reviews online about Riz’s and when we were there on a trip I pushed for us to go and try it. I am so glad I did, every dish we tried was delicious. I loved how soft and tender the dumplings were, the Peking duck and wrappers were amazing. The Peking dumpling special were so flavorful and tender. We over ordered at the table knowing we would take it all back to the hotel for us to to reheat and eat the rest of the week. Peking Duck for breakfast is something everyone should try, it was amazing the next morning still. The owner was so gracious and friendly, we listened to every recommendation and was thrilled with everything we had. We even took one of each dessert home and they were all amazing. I highly recommend eating here for celiacs and non celiacs alike. It is so wonderful to find a place that understands the importance of a GF completely safe no cross contamination kitchen AND also makes the most delicious Asian food you can have. While we didn’t have every item on the menu we did try a lot of plates and every single plate was delicious. We will ALWAYS come back when in Toronto, this restaurant is such a win, I wish they delivered to Brooklyn 🥰

Great gluten free menu, lots of choice.

Amazing 100% gluten free restaurant

Soooooo good!! Highly recommend whether you need to eat gluten free or not! Super fresh, hot & fantastic tasting gluten free Chinese food. It's better than any "regular" Chinese food I'd had prior to being diagnosed celiac. Everything we tried was delicious - fried rice, chop suey, chicken balls, general tao chicken, etc. but my favourite was the honey garlic pork. Everything was so good we ordered more food for takeout to go along with our leftovers from dinner. Also a great selection of frozen items. It was well worth the hour & a half drive for us to get there & we'll definitely make the trip to get there a few times a year!

As a celiac, I was almost glutened here. When I asked a server if the beer was gluten free, I was told everything on the menu was. But when my lager arrived, the bottle listed barley. I double checked with another server, who confirmed it wasn’t gluten free, apologized, and kindly brought me a quinoa-based beer instead (which was good, just a little warm). I don’t want to be too harsh. Overall, the food was great, and it’s such a gift to have a spot where I can enjoy a tres leches cake without fear. But this experience is a good reminder to always double check, even in places that seem safe. It also highlights how important it is for all staff to be fully trained on gluten and allergens.

Gluten friendly food and the staff are very helpful with making the best gf choices! Evelyn was an awesome server! Will come back!

Absolutely LOVE this spot, have eaten in-restaurant twice over the last year, and ordered delivery multiple times, with someone Celiac at home we have NEVER had any issues with gluten! Food is delicious and fresh, service is spectacular, honestly absolutely love this place! We’ve had oysters, fish & chips, tacos, poutine (also a fan of their vegan options for poutine, garlic aioli and tartar sauce!), their deep fried Oreos are to die for, and the selections for beers and drinks are always nice! (Ps, sorry for the almost demolished food pic, have tried and failed to take a picture before digging in for almost a year now)

! Celiac disease friendly ! So many options/substitutions for celiacs. My husband was able to enjoy a breakfast sandwich with home fries... that looked and tasted great! The pricing was fair and affordable which was also a plus. This will be our go to spot when visiting Toronto.

David Torbett

My wife has been wanting to try this place for a little while now! It was worth the wait! She found out about it on Tic Toc! We had an awesome meal with all the dips! This place is 100% gluten free. My wife is just figuring out about gluten and she had a complete worry free dinner!! We had the Dip Dip Dip hooray and we tried 4 different kinds of tacos! Well priced, amazing service and the food is absolutely amazing! 10/10!!

David Mondaca

It's expensive but it's worth every penny. Gluten free options including buns for the burgers and sandwiches

Sarah Lévesque

Wow! The owner is so nice! He took the time with my girlfriend to explain her the gluten free menu . Everything is done separatly so no chance of cross contamination.

Nicole Smith

Wow! I was visiting from the states for a concert that got cancelled but I guess that was a blessing in disguise as that gave us a chance to stop here to eat. The owner/server was friendly and accommodating. The food was fantastic! I have celiac so I was absolutely drawn here for the GF options. They asked about dietary restrictions up front and I felt comfortable and safe. The food was delicious and my non GF fiancé loved it as well. Dedicated fryers are hard to come by (at least back home) so I took advantage of having one of my old favorites, poutine! It was perfectly layered so each bite was tasty, not like a lot of places that will just dump the gravy and cheese on top leaving you with a plate of dry fries underneath. It was also my first crab cake in years, and it really took me back to the Lexington Market in Baltimore when I was younger (it was actually better). The margarita hit the spot and the homemade hot sauce was super tasty. I will 100% be stopping back next time in I’m Toronto, thank you so much!!!

Jason & Kenzee Scott

The best food, service and atmosphere really. Gluten-free AND vegan options? My husband is very happy! I couldn't decide which type of pizza to get because they all look delicious so they let me get half and half--- BBQ Chicken pizza and Renaissance. They were both soo delicious in their own way. We also had their Caesar salad and homemade cookies (which were pure chocolately, marshmallowy, cinnamony goodness 🍪). Wow! I wish we lived closer, we would be there every weekend.

Brenna Liane

What a cool restaurant, I loved the decor. I equally love that everything is gluten free as it's difficult to avoid contamination. The sweet potato halloumi taco was mine and my fiance's fav and the Baddy Addy Red Pepper Marg had really good and interesting flavours!

Trevor Richardson

seems like this place would suck during the school year, but was quite pleasant. had a fancy deglutenized beer which was fantastic

Sharon Robinson

We’ve dined at The Mule many times and it has been our go-to restaurant for eating out, especially since both my daughter and I are celiac and have always appreciated your gluten-free options and care. Unfortunately, our most recent visit to the Cambridge location was disappointing. The service fell very short of what we’ve come to expect. Our server got our drink orders wrong twice, and there was a noticeably long wait for our meals, despite the fact that the restaurant was not busy at all. We’ve always valued The Mule for its reliability and attentiveness, especially given our dietary needs, which makes this experience all the more disappointing We may not be returning.

Kate Dupuis

We absolutely love Beertown — and more importantly, we trust Beertown. My fiancé has celiac disease, and it can be really tough to find restaurants where we feel safe AND enjoy great food with lots of options. Beertown is our #1 choice. They have a full gluten-free menu, always take extra care with his order, and he’s never been glutened here — not once. The atmosphere is always warm, welcoming, and a little trendy. Plus, their patio is fantastic — dog-friendly with beds and water bowls brought to your pup without even asking. Couldn’t recommend this location more!

Sara Pezzella

Gluten free pizza and sushi are all phenomenal!

Sandie George

We celebrated my husbands birthday, dinner for two. We shared the full size kale ceasar salad with roasted chick peas and gluten free. The truffled chicken dinner and scallop, pork belly risotto were delicious. Their bartender makes great classic margaritas too. McKenzie our server was friendly and attentative to my gluten free needs. It always feels safe eating gluten free here. The chef plans to put their gluten free fish n chips back on the menu soon, they are delicious. Looking forward to that. Its so difficult to find gluten free fish n chips. We will be back.

Dipankar Arora

Healthy food. While ordering I was told that everything here is gluten free. I tried K & K lasagna.

Stephanie

I am embarrassingly obsessed with the sriracha pineapple cauliflower wings here. They’re gluten-free, dairy-free, sweet, spicy, crispy, and served on a bed of crunchy kale. It’s technically an appetizer it’s honestly a full meal lol. The portion is huge and so so good. Whenever I’m hungry and don’t know what I want, my boyfriend knows to just pick these up for me and I’ll be a happy girl. We’re moving out of the city soon, so they shared the recipe for the wings and the sauce with me for when I’m craving it - 10/10 staff. Whether you're plant-based or not, get them.

Erika Geremia

Cool spot for dinner. Nice patio. Helpful waitstaff with LOTS of options for celiac and vegetarian

Ashley Kennedy

10/10. The fish tacos are my #1 choice, always. Such a great experience at the Burlington location, our server was so attentive and did a remarkable job accommodating our daughters gluten allergy.

Ben Kidd

Excellent gluten-free pasta, possibly the best gluten free pasta in the city.

Ryley N

Lots of delicious gluten free options! In fact, they have an entire gluten free menu and they are highly knowledgeable about it! The breakfast menu is my favourite :)

Coralie D'Souza

One of the best gluten-free spots in the city! Every single item is delicious.

Madison Gobeil

Came to this restaurant for a team lunch before our game. I ordered a gluten free sandwich, had 2 bites of it, and thought to myself “this is too good to be gluten free bread”. Sure enough, after consulting with the server, they had incorrectly placed my order. Make no mistake, they were quick to get me set up with a new, gluten free sandwich. I was very impressed with the way their entire staff handled the situation and wouldn’t hesitate to come back to this restaurant in the future.

Dan Macdonald

Chose 4 tacos (pastor, gringa, camaron, tinga) and they were all excellent. The mariachi band was fun. Absolutely worth a visit. And it’s gluten free approved!

Erica M

I love Beertown. Not just because they satisfy my foodie cravings for meat, nutrition and flavour…but also because they cater to the dairy and gluten-free side of me with an ENTIRE MENU OF GOODNESS.

Gabrielle Watson

Unfortunately they ran out of the food I really wanted to try (the achiote chicken quesadilla), but the rancheros were really good anyways. Loved the homemade hot sauce and ketchup as well. My partner and friend thought their iced coffee was a little watered down tasting/not strong enough, but even for them the food made up for it. They had the brisket hash. Really cute place, the patio looked like a nice set up as well. Good options for people who eat vegetarian and gluten free. Service was friendly and attentive as well!

Dave Smith

Dave's Genuine is comfort food—pure and simple—especially if you grew up eating deli sandwiches, or Kosher favorites like matzoh ball soup. The turkey club is probably my favorite sandwich of all time, and Dave's Genuine makes a killer one. Best of all, it can be made gluten-free—safe for someone who has Celiac disease, like me. In fact, Dave's Genuine makes a real effort to accommodate gluten allergies because the owner's daughter also has Celiac, so he understands the ins and outs of cross contamination. In my most recent order, Dave's even sent me a free batch of fries with a kind note on it, promising they're prepared separately and fried in their own GF fryer. After trying these fries for the first time—crispy and light, by the way—I knew I needed to write this review. The customer service here is truly impeccable, and so is the quality of the food. Pro-tip: Try the smoked meat, it's insanely good.

Stephen Snudden

Gluten free menu, gluten free soy sauce, generous serving of fresh sushi. Yum!

Jessica Dorado

Fantastic spot for dinner. Highly recommend the trout dish! Their staff are also always so attentive to my gluten free restrictions, making for an amazing dining experience!

trisha pinho

Beertown is my Goto # 1 handsdown restaurant. We have a vegan and a gluten free in our circle and everyone loves it!!! The staff are so friendly, great atmosphere! See you again soon! CHEERS!

Samantha S

Accidentally stumbled upon this place and super surprised to find out everything is gluten free! All the ice cream flavours and the cones! Staff was super friendly and nice, ice cream itself was so good and they have alcohol infused ones that tasted amazing. I only got the ice cream to go but they have a cute set up for drink pairings as well - I'll definitely be coming back to try that.

Nadia Larouche

The service here is fantastic. The menu changes with the season, which keeps it fresh and interesting. The menu is very gluten friendly, with lots of excellent substitutions. They are by far the most accommodating restaurant for gluten sensitivities.

Virginia May

Our server Norah was very helpful in assuring my meal was gluten free which is my diet preference.

Paul Morrison

My favourite restaurant in Belleville. Celiac friendly with lots of gluten free options. Owners are from Mexico City and the food is very authentic.

j

so grateful to find an actual gluten free and sugar free restaurant 😍 this was needed in Toronto

Sarah Doucette

Had a wonderful meal on the patio. Listened to some live music! Drinks were great, food was incredible. I have a gluten allergy and I felt safe eating there, tons of options available!

Lisa Lily

I called on Sunday to make a reservation for Valentines Day. We showed up for our reservation sat down to look at a menu and they had a special menu for Valentines Day that had only one gluten free option for me I specifically made a reservation for this restaurant because they usually have lots of gf choices. It took them a long time for our server to get to us before I could even ask about the menu. They were not willing to offer anything other than what was on the menu, so it was either eat the one thing gf that I didn't like or leave. So we left. They should have explained to us when I called to make the reservations that there would be a limited menu that did not offer gf and I would have made reservations elsewhere. Because they did not disclose this at that time our specially planned evening was ruined. It was impossible to go anywhere else without a reservation. We went from expecting a lovely meal at a nice restaurant to a trip to the grocery store instead. It was 8pm by the time I sat down to eat. This experience has a left me feeling bitter about ever going to Debs again.

I wish there were more than 5 stars! I haven't been to the Pickle Barrel for a while, but over the years have visited and enjoyed meals at various locations. Last night's meal, to celebrate my daughter's birthday, was perfect. Our server, Pam, was attentive to our party of 5. Everyone had something different and I didn't hear one complaint. I enjoyed a fabulous Greek Salad, and the gluten-free chocolate cake my daughter enjoyed (and shared!) was tastier than I would have expected. Well done, Pickle Barrel. I will be back!

We love the gluten free options and service is always top notch!
