Top 50 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots Across Delaware

Hannah Druss

Really great atmosphere. Great food. Shoutout to the restaurant for having safe gluten free food and having a variety of options. We will be back next vacation!

The food was good. They have a great selection of Gluten free pancakes, French toast and crepes as well as gluten free bread. Our server was great, Dale. Nice spot situated 1 min from the Rehoboth Beach boardwalk.

Best donuts, and best gluten free donuts. A must stop everytime at the beach. Hard stop.

We've been going to the Bethany Blues on Route 1 near Lewes for several years while on our annual Rehoboth Beach trip. The food and service is always excellent, but I'm writing this review to give them the credit they deserve for being amazing with gluten restrictions/celiac. Every single time, when I mention my gluten free diet, a manager is sent to our table and is very knowledgeable about their gluten free options. I have been gluten free since 2008 and eat out multiple times a week so I can attest that this place is definitely one of the best in handling this restriction. While most restaurants are familiar with GF diets these days, not many make a point to train their management on it and have such a consistent plan in place (they also said they now offer a gluten free bun which is great). I had the pulled pork with cheesy creamed corn and a chopped salad and it was delicious and a generous portion. Thanks, Bethany Blues, for being so accommodating!

Nectar consistently delivers great food and drinks. I love the vegetarian and gluten-free options. The no tuna fish salad is the best!! My husband is not vegetarian and gluten-free, but he loves their food too!

Shari Reams

The arepas are fantastic and gluten free.

The young lady at the front was sweet, had a smile on her face & the seating area outside was cute! As for the food, not so cute… Everything we ordered is something we would normally order from any spot that serves breakfast. For ~$37 we got 1 iced chai, 1 Arnold Palmer, 1 French toast muffin & 2 bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches on ciabatta rolls. One had extra bacon, one subbed for scrambled egg at no extra cost. 1. The chai latte looks & tastes like it’s almost entirely oat milk with cinnamon… disappointing. 2. The Arnold Palmer tastes like unsweetened lemon water?? Like *barely* brewed tea, lots of lemon and water… 3. The breakfast sandwich starts at $6 and ended up $9.75 & $12.75 (+$3 for extra bacon) We opted for ciabatta’s bc the bagels on display look like grocery store bagels. The “ciabatta” was very dry and I’m wondering if it was gluten free bread. There was SO MUCH black pepper on the bacon?? The scrambled egg tasted like premixed carton/rehydrated eggs. 4. The muffin was not bad, but idk if it was made in-house

10/10! We went there for my son’s birthday and Chloe & Joan couldn’t have been any kinder or attentive. The food was delicious and fresh, the coffee hit the spot, too! I appreciated the gluten free options as well. Thanks for making his birthday breakfast so special. 🩷

Not a great place if you have celiac disease. We have been visiting this restaurant for a while and didn't have issues until recently. The last visit I was sick afterwards from what I assume was cross contamination. We tried again today stressing that I have celiac disease. After making some modifications to the meal (which was marked as a gluten free option) and being assured everything would be ok as they have a celiac button that alerts the kitchen I was brought a burger that had a fried onion topping and the burger itself was fried (they do not have a dedicated gluten free fryer). I sent the meal back telling the server it wasn't safe after he kept telling me it was. He came back and confirmed it was not safe. When the manager came over to check on us 15 minutes later he offered to make me a salad with no protein to make up for it since that's faster. Anyway long story short not all the staff is trained on cross contamination or food allergies for that matter. Eat at your own risk...

We are vacationing close to Bethany and came across this gem! We are gluten free and dairy free, and it was amazing to be able to eat such great food without having to worry. It can be such a challenge. The staff is so helpful and the food is so good! Ate brunch and dinner and we will be back tomorrow! Prices are very reasonable and quality is great!

The coffee and breakfast sandwiches are delicious! I love that they have gluten free bread available.

I discovered this place in the context of being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and searching for restaurants that will cater to the new diet/lifestyle I was embarking on. The low carb lunch and sugar free/gluten free dessert options are awesome - I’ve made plenty of t2d friendly baked goods at home but they are on another level. I am so glad this place and these people exist, it’s hard to explain what it means to be able to walk into a bakery and order something without any guilt or anxiety but as cringe as it might sound it’s been a kind of powerful experience for me.

Anna Kousoulis

A great place to stop on our 3 hour drive back to Jersey from DC. Food came out right away. My husband had the meatloaf and said it was the best meatloaf he's ever had. I had the Philly cheesesteak on a gluten free bun (which btw thank you soo much for having gluten free buns!!!) Alexis was very nice. She checked on us regularly. Will come back on our next road trip soon!

Amber Gordon

Lots of options for gluten free baked goods. Great gluten free roll for breakfast sandwiches. Clean bathrooms. Delicious coffee and quaint seating area.

Delaney Ford

Jorge was a great server! He gave great service and made sure that I didn’t get sick at all which I enjoyed. I have gluten free intolerance and he made sure to tell me that not to eat the rice because it had gluten in it. He was so so sweet! The service was great and the proteins the fajitas especially was delicious! I came with a family of 8 including 2 kids and we were treated with so much love at closing time. Thank you so so much! I hope everyone comes and visits this place!

Food was delicious and reasonable for the beach! Loved how they are very great with allergies and are gluten free for celiac’s. I am very appreciative with there service when asking several questions about there procedures that prevent cross-contamination. 10/10 will be back again!

The only thing I would change about this place are the hours. It would be amazing if their lunch menu was a dinner option in milton and I know they would bring in loads of business. For some reason it’s always Sunday when I get the urge to go here for breakfast. That said - the food is fantastic and the price is even better. They have done such a great job with the interior. It’s a place I have gone to sit and work and have coffee, but also a place my family loves to go to. It has a cozy feel. The people there are always wonderful. They have just enough gluten free choices that my diet doesn’t create an issue going here. I hope this place is around forever.

Acai bowl was delicious. It was a little pricey but worth it. I absolutely loved that they had gluten free granola because most places don't cater to that need. And they sell it separately! Will definitely be back soon.

Fran Walls

Our granddaughter has a gluten allergy and was happy to see that the Smyrna Diner has a gluten free menu. The chicken salad sandwich looked very good and she said it tasted as good as it looked!

Indoor and outdoor dining options. The outdoor patio is pleasant but overlooks parking lot/driveway. Menu has multiple selections for breakfast/brunch with gluten-free options, offers multiple flavors of mimosas with pitcher options for sharing. Wait staff are friendly and check in sufficiently without rushing. I had a crab and shrimp omelet. The portion is generous and comes with a side of potatoes. The flavor was good.

Thank you for adding more gluten free items! This Celiac girlie loves to try them all and grab Gluten Free Bakery Girl goodies for later!

Luciana Campbell

Best Mole I've tasted! Enchiladas were so good. Great drinks, atmosphere steps away from the beach and great food! Also great if you have Celiacs ...Mexican food is usually safe if you get corn tortillas!

This place has amazing food and kind employees. They let me taste a smoothie I was unsure about getting and offered gluten free granola because of my allergy (which I haven’t really ever heard of). They had some nice deck tables outside to sit on. The atmosphere was great and loved the plants! Yummy food and options for anyone with strict diets! (Vegan, vegetarian, gluten free). Definitely recommend!!

I visited Cottage Cafe in Bethany Beach after a recommendation from a foodie friend, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to the hype for me. The decor is definitely charming—true to its name, it has a cozy cottage feel that’s warm and inviting. That said, the food was just okay. The menu felt a bit limited and uninspired, and the cocktails didn’t really stand out. I appreciated that they had a separate gluten-free menu, but the options on it were pretty minimal. On a positive note, our waitress was lovely—friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout the meal. Overall, it wasn’t a bad experience, just not one that would bring me back again.
