Top 50 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Delight in Bristol

Badger

Amazing that they have gluten free, but does feel like they've lost a bit of their spark. Been going down a couple of times a year, and seems to be less impressive food. Food was nothing special, which is a shame considering the cost. Also, when asked how everything was, I said the soft drinks needed checking as the lemonade was just soda, they did apologise but didn't change the drink (id only had a sip) and nothing was taken off the bill. Perhaps I should have been clearer on my expectations. That being said it's a shame it wasn't quite up to scratch as it used to be a real gem. I have been to the Salt & Malt in Bristol centre and this had a much better feel and different menu options.

Gluten free pies and amazing ones. Coeliac safe though always a risk of cross contamination. Amazing pies and fun place. Rather noisy when full otherwise highly recommend.

Spencer Payne

Tldr: Some of the friendliest staff ive ever met, amazing gluten free options, one of the most beautiful atmospheres, 10/10! I dont usually eat alone at restaurants so was a bit nervous but every member of staff who spoke to me was so kind and so thoughtful and made my experience so nice. Gluten free menu had a lot of options but i went for the butchers brunch i think it was called?? absolutely AMAZING. There is a lot of space for sitting so it doesnt feel super cramped and absolutely gorgeous interior. i had such a lovely time and will definitely be returning! cant recommend enough :]] I did also go in around 1pm and it was fairly quiet, so i imagine if you go later in the day itd be busier so if you want to go when its quiet id suggest 1pm or earlier!!

First time in the New Porto Lounge. Really impressed. Good food, excellent provision for gluten free, lots of space and very relaxing. Thank you so much.

Impero Lounge is right on the High Street in the heart of Portishead, perfect to stop in before a jaunt around the harbour. They’re on a corner with huge floor-to-ceiling windows (that open right up) wrapped around two sides, flooding the vaulted interiors with light. There’s a lovely terrace out the front too, perfect for watching the world go by. They’ve a fantastic range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten-free and vegan menus) served in this relaxed, welcoming space. Look out for their mural celebrating Portishead’s old power station and lighthouse. Which is apt, as they’re a bit of a powerhouse and a shining beacon for the hungry and thirsty people of Portishead.

Highly recommend their chicken, avocado, tomato, bacon, cheese gf sandwich

I’m not a bad review type person, but I think it’s necessary. I’ve seen a lot of reviews on here about how nice and lovely the food was and I feel like they’re either being super generous, or they’re a bit delusional and probably have very disposable income. The few I’ve seen regarding the price for what is given in my opinion are most honest. I bought a “Buddha bowl” which I asked for a poached egg with (for an extra £1.25), came to just under £15, to which when it came was practically an empty plate, full of Tescos finest hummus… mmm yaaay! literally, just a whole bottom layer of pure hummous.. from probably Tesco, (you can tell) with “roasted aubergine & squash” sprinkled on the top, giving the illusion there’s something to dive into. No, it’s definitely just hummus… just Tesco bought hummous. A whole yummy bowl of it, To Then be given ONE SLICE of (coop’s fossilised gluten free bread) CUT INTO THREE FINGER slices. WHAT? Absolute piss take. “Buddha bowl” you know,imagine?.. If Buddha ate that, he’d be Ghandi. But wait, There’s more.. When I asked for just a little more bread to go with my mousse, I was told it would cost an extra £2.15 .. oh nice. If I wanted another rationed dry toasted finger slice of gluten free co cop branded crackers, I should pay for it. Sweet. Gotcha.. Maybe I should’ve got another egg, it’s cheaper. Then in all the madness, besides my 3 thin slices of flavourless avocado, was the juicy “red cabbage salad” about literally 7 shreds (I’m not exaggerating at all), of cabbage and a chunk of core. Right there, I saw it, with my eyes, not even hiding. Just outrageous. What do they do measure it in milligrams? I told the girls behind the counter and we agreed on the audacity, however no refund was offered. I guess I’d gone too far to ask for money back once I dived into the lake of deception. Assuming I was getting a mouthful of aubergine. She noted my complaint, reasoned & said she’d mention it to the head chef, who I think should rather consider converting to a shakes and smoothies lounge, because thankfully the smoothie was one of the best I’ve had in a long time. Service for me was decent, nice girls, accommodating energy and the sofa was comfy.. but food prices/quality deserves a slap.

A whole menu dedicated to gluten free and they have separate fryers

Bethany Chandler

The restaurant was quite empty when we came but we had a great experience. Staff were the perfect combination of attentive but giving you space. Food was delicious and caters for those who are vegetarian/vegan and gluten-free. So many different combinations can be ordered and it all tastes so good. Will definitely be visiting a Pieminster again;

Sandy Cooper

Beautiful place, very clean and tidy. Amazing staff team. Food was expensive for what it was. Thanks for Gluten Free breakfast.

Went for brunch. Nice food and gluten free options. Friendly staff and great service. Asked for water and was provided it within a minute, which is the first time this has happened in a long time, I normally have to ask again in restaurants. Good breakfast offer. We'll certainly be going back. Lovely outside seating area.

Kiera N

Really enjoyed my visit to Cafe Neapolitan, I ordered a cooked breakfast along with a cup of tea. The potion size was big but they did not flag on the effort put in. The bread was hand made, which you could had the option of being gluten free. Also a choice of eggs, I went for scrambled which has added cooked onion which I though was a really nice touch. The cafe had a cosy atmosphere and the staff were friendly, I would defiantly recommend.

Wendy Macfarlane

I met my friend at Tesoro Lounge today. Very happy to see a whole menu with lots of choice of gluten free meals. The service was great and the food was delicious. When I went to pay for my drinks and pudding I was told it was on the house as a random act of kindness! This totally made my day!

Liz Williams

I phoned to enquire about gluten free options leaving a message requesting a call back - never called back so based on this lack of service I will not visit

Jenny Leavett

My son, who is coeliac and has a very severe reaction to gluten, was told that the cakes labelled may contain gluten would be ok because they didn’t contain “active” gluten. There aren’t two versions of gluten; active and inactive. Of course, he knew not to have one but newly diagnosed coeliacs might not. We went to the gelato shop just down the hill instead and they were very knowledgeable and helpful about gluten free food.

Ellen Healy

This place is incredible. I've been gluten free for 3 years and never have I had a good gluten free cookie. I just didn't think it was possible. This place makes them and they genuinely are so amazing so chewy. Absolutely divine, and all the drinks are delicious! Really really lovely staff and I've heard the lunches are amazing too

Stuart Marsh

I know airport food is always going to be overpriced and naff - but even my low expectation wasn't low enough. We waited for the uninterested waitresses to seat us, and told them we needed gluten free for my coeliac partner. They said they'd give us 10 minutes to look at the menu and make our choice and they'd be back. Upon their return we asked for a pasta dish, to be told that they'd run out of gluten free pasta - which would have been useful information to provide us with before we looked at the menu! We went for gluten free pizzas in the end, and they had clearly been made on frozen bases and chucked under the grill, because the toppings were melted but the dough was cold and undercooked. The uninterested waitresses didn't ask us how the food was, I think they knew. Took a while to get anyone's attention to pay as well. Inexplicably naff! The gluten free pizza (whilst crap and cold) didn't trigger my coeliac partner, so it's safe at least!

Lee Wilson-Hayes

I have Coeliac disease, and Côte is one of my favorite safe restaurants in Bristol. My husband and I try to plan a date night here every couple of months. I always feel well cared for by staff, and the extra touches of separate GF menus and GF flags in the food are greatly appreciated. The food is exquisite every time we dine in, and we enjoy tasting new recipes as well as ordering tried and true menu items. Côte will remain one of my go-to restaurants for as long as I live in Bristol.

Mike Sheldon

Consistent excellent. Trinity and Kate were amazing. It was my mums 84th birthday and wow did she get spoiled and trinity was so kind, engaging and helpful. I’ve eaten here a few times and the food is consistently excellent. Im also coeliac and know I’m safe.

Victoria Forrester

Delicious brunch, gluten free options too. Interesting building and friendly staff

Edd Chappell

Brilliant independent cafe/bar! Great selection of food and drink and can cater for most allergies. They had a great selection of Gluten-free food and cakes! There is a baby changing room in the ladies bathroom, in the end cubicle (FYI) Dog friendly and good atmosphere. Well worth a visit! Can recommend booking if you can to guarantee a space!

MrandMrs Deane

Gluten free pizza was a bit disappointing. Freya served us and was lovely and engaging especially with the girls. She did her best to ensure we were happy with our meals and had what we needed.

Seren Dixon

Fantastic food, coffee and cake. Even had good gluten free options too. Totally worth the wait to get a seat!

Emily Horne

Came for a nice dinner, staff were lovely and very attentive. Food was great, especially for me with a gluten allergy

Nicki Stalley

A great Sunday roast! I have coeliac disease so eating out can be a challenge sometimes. However, not here. As soon as we walked in and explained I was coeliac the person that met us went straight into the kitchen to find out what I could/couldn't have. Then went our waitress took our order she explained that her brother had coeliac disease which was so reassuring and she also explained that the kitchen staff were cleaning everything down. Brilliant service, thank you! The food was lovely, would absolutely recommend

Harrison Lee

I would French kiss a war criminal just for a wee nibble of one of their delicate pasties. EMG! (Eat More Gluten)

Melanie Duncalf

We had an excellent Saturday brunch here. Despite their being a queue we were seated within 5 minutes and were kept up to date with progress. Their Bloody Mary is one of the best I've had for a long time, really spicy and a fresh celery stick too! There are a wide range of dietary options available including vegetarian, vegan and gluten free. The food was delicious, fresh, tasty and generous. I would highly recommend the Straw fries, yum!

Daryl Hooper

Love going to Garden of Easton, its always a wonderful experience being with so many plants, and so cool on a hot day! We enjoyed all of our dishes and we apprecitated how many options were gluten free AND dairy free! We will be back soon!

Angela

Had an amazing meal here yesterday and so did 3 members of our family who were with me. I am dairy and gluten free and they were so helpful accommodating me. Delicious food and very attentative service. We will be back sometime.

Austin Britton

Got the cheeky monday deal which includes free dessert with a main. Asked before we ordered whether the desserts would be held until we were finished with the main and were told yes. We finished our mains and were asked if we were ready for dessert, and after a yes were given spoons. Our desserts didn’t come out for another 30 minutes, and I’m not sure they ever would have come if we didn’t say something to the server. The food was mostly uninspiring; positives were cheesecake and brownie, as well as gluten free chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries.

Chris Draper

Had as bit of an underwhelming breakfast experience. Ordered the vegan breakfast but you can't select gluten-free options on the app so had to go to the till to amend the order. There was then a mis-up with the table number which meant the food and drinks took 20 mins to arrive. The food was tasty but it was all a bit tepid, apart from the scrambled tofu which was cold and unpleasant. I would have fed this back to the staff but at no point were we asked whether our food was OK. And for nearly £15 I didn't think it was particularly good value, one small sausage and only half a tomato! There are better places for breakfast in Bristol.

Nadja R

Amazing atmosphere and gluten-free options! We loved the breakfast, music, decoration and very kind people working there. Highly recommended by us for kids & adults. Easy reservation online possible.

Isabel Vargas

Lovely place. Very clean, cosy, very friendly staff and plenty of gluten free options!!!

Peter Cittern

We had a great experience when we visited your Cheswick village cafe for brunch last week. We were attended to by a super waitress called Ruby who was very professional and friendly and immediately found us a booth. She was helpful and flexible with one of our party's gluten and dairy allergies. The food and service were both excellent. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Maya Kitay

Staff told us the cannoli were gluten free - I’m allergic to gluten - so he got me one. It wasn’t at all gluten free (made with wheat pastry). Fortunately I suspected this before tasting it - I returned it and asked staff to check again. This could have caused a serious allergic reaction - I fear for those with more serious allergies to nuts or milk that could be life threatening. The staff didn’t make much effort to recognise this - while they refunded it, all they said was “oh, sorry”. Please be careful - staff were approachable and it was sorted quickly, but if you have allergies, check the ingredients yourself.

Kamila

I visited The Lock Up on Sunday for a roast, and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had! This was my third time at the restaurant, and it was by far the best experience yet. I came this time as a Coeliac and was absolutely over the moon with the gluten-free options available—both for mains and desserts. I was especially thrilled to have a Yorkshire pudding and cauliflower cheese, which are such rare treats for Coeliacs. I had the beef, which was cooked perfectly—tender and not at all chewy. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. I really appreciated the care they took. Highly recommend—especially if you're looking for a great gluten-free Sunday roast!

Jennifer Joan Norris

Great coffee plus really good gluten free cake options. The server was very on it in terms of cross contamination too - I'm coeliac so she made sure to get the cake directly out of the box for me

Hetty Eades

Gorgeous food, great service. Very well cared for indeed. Personal service. Ebony cared for us very well. Despite being busy, she offered great service. She got my salad from the kitchen for me as I'm coeliac, v kind and courteous indeed.

Nessa

THE BEST BREAKFAST PLACE IN BRISTOL!! I could rave about this place all day long and write a 5000 word essay about how good this place is. From the most friendliest staff that are genuinely happy to be there (which is rare in hospitality) and always finding a way to struck up a positive conversation, to the atmosphere the place has. Nectar house has such an incredible atmosphere so cosy and hippie dippie I LOVE IT. Now to the best part of all……. THE FOOD OMG THE FOOD. The breakfast slays so hard it always come out Micheline Star level. If I was sentenced to death my last meal would be here without a second thought. Big portions and variety of foods. So accommodating to all diets: vegan, veggie, meat, gluten free. Oh and the owner is so wonderful. Polish owner of the year awards, so friendly and always makes sure to say hello to the regulars. This place is sick and twisted because I fight the urge to go there and spend all my money everyday.

Cerys

Visited a few times now and always had a fantastic service, so much so that booked for a recent work event catering. The sandwiches were so fresh, full of flavour and so many options. The portions were HUGE and there were some very happy and full stomach's! The gluten free option was superb- really felt like it was the same as everyone else's with soft bread and great selection of fillings. Won't hesitate to come back again soon and highly recommend. Thank you guys!

Louise Kolman

Have always wanted to visit this restaurant and it did not disappoint!! The food was absolutely delicious, I had a lamb mint sausage with mash and a side if carrots and parsnips and omg I could eat that again and again! The dessert was delicious too (we had a gluten free cheesecake) HIGHLY recommend!

mark chamberlain

I've been going to this place for years mainly for lunch, but recently went for Sunday Breakfast, all five of us had Different dishes and everything was great, you'd be hard pressed to find a better quality Full English and for my Son who's Gluten intolerant they concocted and amazing roast Pork with corn Bread and lots of tasty trimmings, good service, really friendly Staff and big enough to easily accommodate a party of six...... Coffees decent too......

Tabitha Read

One of my favourite brunch places in Bristol! Everytime I have visited, the food and service has always been excellent. The queue is worth it. Also the staff members have excellent food allergen training and know the ingredients of their menu from back to front even with sauces. A friend of mine who came with me has a gluten allergy and was amazed by how helpful and thoughtful the servers and chefs were to ensure her food was gluten free

Lewis Read

I attended on 31st December 1.30pmish. Absolutely amazing. I'm vegan, gluten free with many intolerances (onions, garlic etc) and rarely eat out. I'm not from Bristol. I was put at ease by the signage and friendly staff and made an ad-hoc cooked Brunch. Some items were adapted especially and everything was delicious. 15/5. I wish I could eat here every day. Thank you xxx

G S

Stumbled upon this place and really enjoyed it! The cafe is a little small, therefore not a place to stay too long/work from. Good selection of drinks and food, and can cater for various dietary requirements, including vegan and gluten allergies. I'd happily visit again by myself or with a friend.

Murray Hitchens

Amazing! Finally somewhere to have good BBQ. Exceptional value for money and the best thing is they could cater for me even though I am gluten free (coeliac)

Sophie Pearce

Yummy food and Amina was amazing at accommodating gluten free food as the chef is gluten free - even changed the calamari for me so I could have it!

Carole Seddon

With 2 coeliac teenagers, this is our go-to for great food for all the family!

Emily Horne

The food was very good, and many gluten free options. Amari served us and they were very helpful and friendly. Would return

Hollie Garrett

We had a takeaway and it was sublime! A really delicious curry and an easy click and collect set up. Most dishes seem to be gluten and dairy free also which makes it much easier for people with intolerances like me!
