Top 5 Gluten-Free Spots for Bread Lovers in Edinburgh Old Town

Angela Weston

Fabulous carrot gluten free carrot cake

Natalia Fernandez Caja

The food is incredible, you can tell they are Italian. They have gluten-free pasta options although there isn't much to choose from. It comes in a VERY small quantity for the price, but it is very very delicious for a treat-meal.

Hannah Young

Had the most amazing blueberry matcha, and great toast (gluten free option) that was very tasty. Such friendly staff.

Erin Whalen

Unfortunately I just ate there and got glutened by their food. The poutine even though they said it was Celiac safe unfortunately was not.

Meriel Graham

Fantastic breakfast. Had the gluten free option of the full breakfast. Would highly recommend!

Howie's is an excellent choice for modern Scottish cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere without the hustle and bustle of the pun. Its dishes stand out for their flavor and presentation: from haggis to fresh fish, game meats, and traditional soups or the soup of the day. The restaurant has two main locations in Edinburgh: one on Victoria Street, more intimate and with historic charm, and another opposite a cemetery very close to the climb to Canton Hill. The service is attentive and efficient, and the menu includes vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, as well as a good selection of wines and whiskeys. They also have clean bathrooms. Improvements: The Victoria Street location has small spaces, with limited access for people with reduced mobility. In both cases, it's advisable to book or arrive very early. In short, a highly recommended place for a tasty Scottish experience with good value.

Best gluten and dairy free bagel and cake I have had in a very long time! Really good vegan looking options too.

Beatrice Whitbread

Quite possibly the nicest indian food ive had in years, with a huge range of food, and variation for veggie, vegan and celiac, there is very little (if anything) to be unhappy about. Staff were friendly and patient and the price was very reasonable for the amount of food!

Ursula Dodunski

Really disappointing experience. Made a booking for a large group for dinner and drinks. Limited space available despite communicating the group size. Very poor service. Lots of miscommunication from the servers, some saying we can order food from the restaurant and bar and some only saying bar. GF guest told they were out of all snacks and that they don’t do gluten free options only to be then told if you come back in 5-10 we may be able to help you. Long waits for drinks and probably the worst expresso martini. Do not recommend.

Gluten free canoli was lovely, although isn't completely separate from gluten products - they did warn me of this.
