Top 50 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Delight in Baltimore

Stopped in for a quick bite and ended up staying for dessert too - butter chicken was fire, and that gluten-free cupcake? Unreal. Definitely coming back.

Excellent food and desserts. Entirely vegan and gluten free. Very friendly staff and cute location.

Wonderful server, delicious food, safe for my daughter with celiac. Really a treasure of a place.

The Corner Pantry is a Baltimore gem with thoughtfully curated and creative selections and amazing gluten free breads and pastries. Everything on the menu from coffee to savory to sweet options simultaneously evoke comfort and decadence. Their holiday pies are also a staple for my family's festive menus, and whenever I visit, the staff is warm and inviting. On days when you need a little extra joy in your life, I highly recommend visiting TCP!

Cozy Spot with Great Food and Vibes Loved my visit to Golden West Cafe! I had a hot chai latte that really hit the spot, and the High Mesa polenta with chorizo and an egg over easy was delicious. They were super accommodating with my gluten-free needs and brought out corn tortillas without me even asking. The vibe is laid back and comfy—perfect for a relaxing meal. I’ll definitely be back!

I don’t eat gluten or dairy and assumed I’d once again be stuck eating nothing but fruit and bacon, but boy was I wrong! The menu is carefully labeled for the most common allergens, and I had plenty of safe options to choose from! I got the gluten free cinnamon danish pancakes with strawberries instead of the icing drizzle. GF pancakes aren’t usually the tastiest, but I took a chance. Especially since the waitress said they’re even tastier with the cinnamon danish stuff (which is IN the batter), so I took her advice. And OMG, they were delicious!!! Also, a manager came out to check about allergens- apparently the griddle they use for the GF pancakes is completely GF, but they do make chocolate chip GF pancakes so there’s some risk of dairy cross-contact. That’s ok for me, but I was really impressed and grateful she checked. And I think she said the whole kitchen is nut-free, which is pretty cool. My kiddo loved his (full-of-gluten-and-dairy) waffles, and we both really enjoyed our fancy mocktails. All in all, I’m very impressed, and I was so grateful we could safely (and deliciously!) partake in this very quintessential Baltimore institution!

Best chicken fajitas ever and really yummy gluten free options! As a celiac, I have never gotten sick from here in the last 2 years I’ve eaten there!

Christina Young

Food was delicious. Loved that they could offer gluten free options.

Abriel Mauerman

If you have celiac disease, you can feel safe eating here. A manager will come and talk to you and communicate your allergies and concerns with a chef so you can get what you want. Im usually just concerned with gluten and tree nuts, but they will take anything you have into consideration. And the GF bread options for their sandwiches are awesome. AND and, the hash browns and grits are GF! That's rare.

Mindpub is home away from home. The food is amazing (especially the gluten free which honestly is so good, it’s hard to find gluten free in Federal hill that isn’t insanely expensive for no reason) the staff are great and know a lot - especially when asking for different recommendations. Coffee is locally roasted down the street! If I moved away - I would ALWAYS make sure to come here first when I visit

Candace Anderson

I have celiac disease, so finding a restaurant with safe and delicious gluten-free options is always a challenge. I'm thrilled to say that Sobo Cafe has exceeded my expectations every time. Their gluten-free entrées are amazing, and most importantly, I've never gotten sick here. My partner and I went on our first date here back in December, and we've returned twice since then. Tonight was wine Wednesday $25 a bottle. Each visit has been fantastic, from the attentive service to the flavorful dishes. Sobo Cafe is a gem for anyone looking for reliable and tasty gluten-free dining. Highly recommended!

They have excellent gluten-free Pizza. Was there last night and we ordered two pizzas, forget to mention we needed gluten free. So they had to make two more and were really cool about not charging extra pizzas we couldn’t eat. It’s also a very beautiful space.

Eric Smith

Gluten free** Food is always of an amazing quality that will keep you coming back. Gluten free options are very limited, which is an obnoxious truth to believe given the effort that is put into every other aspect of the restaurant. Hate to see the quality and time given to creating a fantastic must-visit location that won't go all the way to accommodate the dietary restrictions they already offer.

So hard to find vegan with gluten free options. Eating out I usually have to just get a salad, but here I was able to get an appetizer, dinner, and dessert!! I got the lemon risotto with chicken and my husband got the blackened fettuccine with chicken. It was soooooo good. The white sangria was awesome. Service was great and their recommendations were on point.

Erin McCarthy

We went here for breakfast on a whim and we were truly pleasantly surprised! It's a cozy little cafe downtown with a varied menu including lots of gluten free options. Our servers were SO NICE, I cannot overstate this. The food was also amazing. Definitely check it out!

Delicious gf pastried (muffins, scones, cookies)

nice casual place for drinks and food, id say food is solid and reliable but not like super spectacular. crab soup is whack, burgers are good, not a smash burger place. its somewhere youd go regularly. great for gluten free folks. brunch is nice too, and their mimosas are good for groups. fav drinks are the jackrabbit and the crush with less simple syrup.

Erica Reaves

Baby's on Fire is a Mt. Vernon neighborhood gem! The staff are kind and attentive. I am especially appreciative to have gluten-free options, including the breakfast sandwiches! Thank you for changing gloves and the cutting board to avoid cross-contamination. Also, I love their Community Card Program that provides meals and drinks to our unhoused and/or hungry neighbors. This is a special place.

They have gluten free bread! Loved the hashbrowns and fruit bowl.

Meredith Meissgeier

Crab cakes are the incredible and gluten free! A never miss experience

Lauren Shipley

This restaurant will always be one of my favorites! They are tucked into a tiny spot in a huge building, but every inch of the place is filled with personality and charm. They have a good, creative menu and decent prices. Their food is always fresh and prepared with care. They take allergies very seriously. I have celiac's and feel safe eating here. When I ate there in person, I was able to see that they prepared my gluten free sandwich completely separately and with dedicated equipment. I usually order delivery through DoorDash while at work and everything is well packaged and arrives in great shape. Though it's small, they make good use of the space. They have some limited seating both indoors and out and even have some games there for you to play! I have recommended this place to friends and family and definitely think it's worth a visit!

Amazing corn (gluten free) empanadas, along with many gluten free rice dishes and other items. Beautiful patio out back and truly just a 10/10 experience every time I’ve gone

Allison Kaplan (Celiac)

I was pleasantly surprised to see that Ceremony Coffee Roasters offers GF pastries individually wrapped for purchase! I was able to safely enjoy a cranberry almond scone with coffee and get work done :)

Great restaurant that happens to be in an airport near gate B9 at BWI. The crab soup is surprisingly good as is the shrimp and crab flatbread though the dough on the flatbread is unusual as it's gluten free and almost spongy like a crepe - I think a regular wheat dough would have been better! The bloody Marys are excellent, no need to spring for the pricey Crabby Mary though it's a double shot and a crab claw, if that's your thing!

Food was good but nothing spectacular. My other guests loved the crispy chicken sandwich. The service at lunch was slow. They should have more gluten free options.

Lexy McCauley

Soooooo good! The food was amazing. I’m gluten free and they had a ton of options for me. The aesthetic is also so cute! The dried flower wall is definitely inspo for a future project for me.

Great variety of tasty gluten free options!

Nice Waterfront Location with Attentive Service We visited The Cheesecake Factory for gluten-free dessert options. I had the Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake, which was rich, deeply cocoa-forward, and paired well with my caramel macchiato. My partner had the Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake (not gluten-free), which he enjoyed too. He also ordered a chocolate milkshake that initially came out tasting more like vanilla bean with little to no chocolate syrup. The server noticed right away and had it remade properly, which we appreciated. Service was attentive without being too much. Overall, it was a nice experience, especially with the convenience of being open later than other dessert options in the area—but we've had slightly better cheesecakes from other bakeries. Solid 4 stars.

Water for Chocolate is far more than fine dining! On a visit to Baltimore with the Ben Barber Culinary/Restaurant Team, we were looking for a place that could accommodate a reservation for 30. One of my cousins came out the box with Water for Chocolate! This intimate dining establishment showcases the talent, love, and passion of Chef/Owner Sean Guy and staff. Our reservation was for 30 people at 5pm on a Saturday. However, when we arrived we were a group of 50! Chef Guy and crew didn't even blink! With himself at the helm of the kitchen, and staff of 3, he had us all fed with dishes such as Gluten-Free Charred Red Snapper with Cilantro-Lime Rice and Broccolini, Vegetarian Black-Eyed Red Curry, Duck Risotto, and Ribeye Steaks; all within an hour and a half! Baby, let me tell you! Chef did not miss! You could see the discipline and taste the care that was put into every dish! There wasn't a single dish that was not worthy of extensive praise! If you're every in the Baltimore area, or a local. Make it a point to open your heart to all that is Water for Chocolate. Check it Out!!!

the staff speaks predominantly spanish and it’s such a good atmosphere and authentic food. they only have corn tortillas (soft!!) so no cross contamination
