Top 14 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Enjoy in Victoria

Laura Parce

Fabulous gluten-free bakery, we had baguette sandwiches, my husband is not gluten-free and he thought it was great. My rhubarb tart was delicious

Heidi Smith

Celiac friendly They have a dedicated fryer and their staff are super friendly and conscientious. It is such a relief to be treated so kindly when you have food allergies. The food is scrumptious and being by the water on a sunny afternoon/evening is a little piece of heaven.

Be love is quite literally the best restaurant we've ever dined at. We've been several times now and have never been disappointed. The quality and portions are consistent, flavors are unbelievable. Everything is so fresh, you can really feel the love poured into every dish. A dream spot for anyone who is vegan and/or gluten free but ive also dined there with friends who are neither who have said it's the best food they've had. Keep doing what you're doing, its magic! ❤️🌷🙏

Best gluten free bread in town made by happy enthusiastic people!! The food is amazing 👏 I'm always excited to come back i strongly recommend 👌 absolutely love it 😀

Joel Tanner

Saw them on *you gotta eat here* and the meatloaf was truly out of this world. Gluten free waffles were great too ... and holy smokes the endless coffee

Darina Stegnii

Kathleen Oneill

Made me a gluten free pizza in under 10 minutes because we needed to catch the ferry! Delicious and speedy

Elaine Bright

Purchased a carrot cake muffin. Hubby says it's delicious work lots of nuts. Cream cheese icing. Purchased a rectangle piece of gluten-free pizza. About 6" by 5" for about $5. It was very delicious with a little bit of spiciness. The crust was made with rice flour, and was quite heavy with oil.

Best churros I've ever had. Service was friendly with a unique atmosphere. Totally gluten free too

Carrie Pc

Gluten free fries! Most places have a gf bun, but this place also has a dedicated gf fryer 🙌

My Gypsy Tale

Had dinner with My best friend and my mother last night. Shalena’s service was exceptional. My mum has food issues that can be a challenge. Shalena could not have been more accommodating. Mum often avoids going for dinner due to her FOD diet Mum was so happy to be so well taken care. Thank you for the exceptional service. They have a special deep fryers to accommodate people who are celiac and willing to adjust a dish to suit my mums food challenges. Cheers

The BEST spot for a quick meal in Victoria. Buffet, self serve style. The food is always hot and delicious and affordable. Kind staff. Washrooms. Wifi. The best desserts and drinks. Gluten free and dairy free options. Lots of seating for small and big groups.

Louise Chozen

Amazing and great gluten free!

Tammy Vandamme

Awesome...first time having gluten free fried chicken in many years

Roland Esparza

Excellent food, large portions, and great gluten free options.

Rob The Picture Guy

A very small bakery with a large wood fired oven with which they make a variety of delicious baked goods. Some goods are gluten and other ingredients free. I only left out an "Atmosphere" rating because it is simply a small counter to purchase goods. There is no place to sit.

L.D.

Excellent service and accommodating to gluten-free allergies. Excellent food for my gluten free Large Hemingway Short Story with 6 prawns. I Highly recommend the duck wings! This place is popular! Very crowded and loud inside. Enjoyed it even though it was packed. Live music. There was the option of quieter outdoor seating with plenty of room while we were there.

Erinn McLeese

I ordered the onion rings for my friend who is celiac and from the time I called to the time she was able to eat her first onion rings in over 10yrs.... she is IN BLISS!!! And I am so excited for her! Thank-you!!!!

Justine Brennick

Incredible breakfast, especially for a gluten free meal

dan shalloween

I used to eat at Big Wheel 3 - 4 times per month because they had the only gluten free crispy chicken burger in town. It was always great and was my go-to eat out meal. Now that they’ve stopped making the chicken burger gluten free I have not been back.

Micaela Yawney

Delicious and affordable brunch spot. Gluten free and dairy free options available!

Shannon KMG

Absolutely love Bunny and her team! Everyone is kind and there to help patiently while I peruse the many many vegan options and wonderful gluten free options. Has become one of my favourite gluten free places in Victoria!

Billy Flyte

Two of us had a great experience at Shanzees! The food was superb! Mocha latte was perfect. Very friendly staff as well. Good gluten free options

Alex C

A really unique restaurant in Langford. Nothing quite like it in the immediate area. Andrew was our server, and went above and beyond to make sure our experience was perfect. The food was incredible, and had lots of options for various restricted diets including gluten free, and vegan.

Eric LeBlanc

We needed gluten free and we were very happy to know that they have a dedicated gluten free menu and they use a dedicated gluten free fryer for their food. It can be really hard to find a lot of places like this, but this is by far my favourite place to eat in Victoria! I really want to thank everyone there who made it very easy to find safe food for us.

Tucked in on Wharf (with another spot on Yates), Dosa Paragon nails South Indian comfort food with crispy, perfectly fermented dosas, tangy coconut and tomato chutneys, and hearty sambhar . The signature dishes—like the Butter Chicken Masala Dosa and Mysore Masala Dosa—burst with authentic, bold flavours you won’t easily find elsewhere on Vancouver Island . Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options make it inclusive and appealing to many dietary preferences. Many guests rave about crisp dosas and excellent chutneys: “Bomb.com for dosa lovers!” . One Redditor even called it “the only proper South Indian restaurant on the island” , and another praised the Butter Chicken Dosa as “fantastic!” . Service and atmosphere can vary—some mention occasional slowdowns at peak times or small portion sizes for chutney —but most reviews highlight friendly staff and a cozy setup. Highlights • Exceptional, large, crispy dosas with vibrant fillings • Delicious chutneys & hearty sambar • Inclusive menu: vegan/gluten‑free friendly • Filter coffee and mango lassi round out the meal nicely Tips • Go during off-peak hours to avoid waits • Parking can be tricky near Yates—Wharf location offers easier access Bottom line: Authentic South Indian cuisine with bold flavours, a welcoming vibe, and a menu that satisfies vegans and gluten‑free diners alike. A must-visit for dosa lovers in Victoria!

Great food. Great decor. Very gluten sensitivity friendly. The place is very clean. The staff are very friendly. 100% recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Chris Kennedy

While it was great they had gluten free waffle options, you only get 1 Belgium waffle and if you’re hungry, it won’t be enough. An order of thick cut bacon on the side helped fill the void. Oat milk for our coffees was nice, and the coffee cup sizes are kind of small given the $5 charge. Overall, it was decent - it was a breakfast start to a busy morning - but we’d likely go elsewhere for more value and larger portions.

Andy Bernhart

Rick and Don are great! The gluten free hot dogs are amazing! We have two celiacs in our family and it's been difficult to find celiac friendly hot dogs until we found these guys. They also have halal and kosher options. Something for everyone. The staff are friendly and helpful. Aiden offered great service. Thanks! You are a local treasure!

My favourite place to go when I visit Victoria! I have been eating here for many years. And each brunch or lunch or dessert is a feast for both my senses and belly. Nutritious, beautifully prepared and presented drinks and meals with exceptional flavours. Great service that is always sensitive and accommodating to my dairy and gluten allergies. A huge hug of gratitude for the incredible people who make this place a beautiful experience in every way!

Cheryl U

NOT great for someone who has Celiac as very limited GF options (no GF burger buns) - they are clear that they cannot guarantee cross contamination, etc. HOWEVER, we did take a chance and ordered the Bacun Crafty Mac N Cheese dish with GF pasta - it was delicious! And so was the London Fog! The staff are friendly and helpful. And the atmosphere was relaxing. Nice to have tasty Vegan food in Victoria!

Fantastic! I came for afternoon tea and had a great experience. I told them 24 hours in advance I was celiac/gluten free per policy so they could be prepared. They don’t have a gluten free menu but they can make the Winter Afternoon Tea gluten free. The whole tower is the same, just gluten free. All the food was fantastic and they were so kind. Beautiful atmosphere too.

vi brown

Best gluten free sandwiches ever! Family run business that doesn’t skimp on fillings. I get my toasted sandwiches here and they have really nice tea as well, loose leaf good quality. I come here weekly and generally don’t eat out places often but the quality is so great that I come here after my physiotherapy upstairs and it’s the perfect boost. The washroom is very clean and spacious, wheelchair or stroller friendly, and has a changing table.

Came here for brunch with a Victoria local friend who recommended this restaurant. The inside is nicely decorated with natural light coming in from the windows. There are plenty of options on the menu and cater to everyone's taste. There are plenty of gluten free and vegetarian items. They are known for their egg benedicts so we have to give it a try while in Victoria. We ordered the Brisket Benedict on bagel and the Salmon Benedict on croissant (believe there is a $1 surcharge but was told worth the $1 if you like buttery and flaky bread). The bagel was a bit hard to my liking but definitely not soggy even with the eggs and brisket loaded on top. Also, it was quite unique to have a bagel in a benedict. The eggs were cooked perfectly with medium runny yolks. The hashbrowns on the side were very crispy and flavourful. We also ordered drinks to go with the meals. Tropical punch and lavender lemonade are quite popular for non-alcohol options. Overall, our server was nice and attentive. Food was delicious. This would be my go-to brunch place if I live in Victoria.

Spencer Toffoli

Lovely, charming locally owned cafe with excellent sandwiches. Not the place if you are in a hurry - the owner makes everything herself, and it’s delicious. I loved my gluten free sandwich - not dry at all like most places - and my spouse loved his. Great place to sit on the patio and enjoy Langford.

Darby Marshall

Best cafe in Sidney hands down. Great gluten free options, great service, very pretty decor.

Don R Campbell

For that schnitzel craving, there is no better place in Victoria. And if you're celiac (gluten free) the answer is finally "yes!". You can enjoy it right along with your eating partners. The crisp is just right, the sides (you get two) are very nicely prepared. Bonus is, we have enough leftover for lunch the following day. The service was fun, informative and attentive.

The staff was lovely, the space was cute, the food was DELICIOUS! They have a number of different options for dietary restrictions, which is great. Vegan, dairy free, and gluten free. They are NOT however wheelchair accessible. A wheelchair user on their own would struggle to get into the slightly uneven seating area and would have to have the staff come outside to take their money as the window is up on a small porch area. Or being there with an able bodied person allows them to pay, which works for my husband and I, thus no knock on the review. Would definitely go again if in the area!

Carissa Burk

Stopped in for a light lunch of smoothies, soup and salad. Food was good. Easy to find wheat/gluten free options.

Steven Pearson

A fabulous spot to have lunch. We shared a charcuterie board which was full of great cheese, meat and fruit as well as crackers and bread. Spot on. I had the moules in Tom yum broth which were probably the best mussels I have ever had. The broth was perfectly balanced with chilli and coriander. A pint of the red amber ale went well with it. We also had a salmon burger and there were lots of gluten free options. Our waiter was superb too. Just go, you won’t regret it!

Cait Foster

Food is always good, sometimes awesome; this is one of few restaurant chains in Victoria that serves Celiacs with care. I love the little notes they write on takeout orders - it’s such a small detail, but it goes such a long way!

Ron Dyson

Valentine’s Day dinner. Booked in advance and the restaurant actually called before hand to confirm reservation and to see if we needed any special help for possible mobility issues. We didn’t but Outstanding! First time ever. We ordered the Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl, and the Piri Piri half chicken dinner. The bowl was beautiful and delicious. The only thing I would suggest is that it be a larger portion. They really stepped up to make the chicken dinner gluten and dairy free with incredible ease! Both dinners were delicious. Nice atmosphere on the upper floor. Service was outstanding. Two dinners and two glasses of wine 🍷 for under $ 💯, including tip. Highly recommend this place. Nice place and value! Cheers! 🥂
