Absolutely loved this place! If you live around the area or happen to be in town this bakery is definitely a go to! I am 100% gluten free with celiac and when I tell you this is the best tasting baked goods I’ve had since I started my journey! I got the cinnamon rollup, beignet donuts, donut holes, muffin (berries), and quiche! Donuts were my fav! It is a little bit pricey but if you’re celiac you already know the drill! Definitely worth it especially when you get a little bit of everything!

Completely gluten free. I had a vegetarian arepa (black beans, cheese and plantains) Delicious! Verde salsa was flavorful and the plantain chips were great. I have celiac and this is a delicious and safe place to eat. Staff is very nice.

It's quickly becoming one of our favorite spots in OTR. Food is delicious, service is great, and it's gluten free friendly.

Alcove knows something that many restaurants could learn, that you can serve people with food allergies and preferences without limiting access to a variety of dishes. So many dishes prepared gluten free and they have a dedicated gf fryer. I had the fried chicken sandwich which was incredible. Even my gluten eating friends enjoyed it. The beet and goat cheese salad is not to be missed! The polenta with flamin' hot Cheetos was a favorite at the table. The service was amazing and everyone was very friendly. Definitely will be returning!

Best gluten free Nutella banana bread muffin!! I loved it! Would come back just for that alone. I also ordered a Cortado and asked for a side of sparkling water to pair it. They were very accommodating and the cashier was super welcoming. Only downside is parking kinda far especially when it rains 🥲 it’s worth it though.

We discovered this place by a coincidence. It was a great coincidence! Fully vegan fully delicious. We took a quick lunch to go, the staff is extremely helpful with your order, friendly and skillful. We got the goddess bowl and sandwich. There are nice gluten-free options and it's good to mention that they do a lot of stuff such as sauces or seitan homemade, which is awesome. We enjoyed it all!

I love Poke Hut! I have celiac disease and never get sick eating here. Portion sizes are really good for the price and the ingredients are always fresh. I get a build your own bowl and I’m always happy with my food.

I mostly come to Lou Vino for brunch. It’s amazing every time. There’s usually some gluten free options but nothing yummy like waffles or French toast gluten free. Just like omelette and steak and eggs. Either way the mimosas are affordable for brunch and the service is usually pretty friendly.

Amazing BBQ but minimal GF options. I believe the corn side has gluten in it. I love coming here when I’m near OTR. The ordering system is a little confusing but it’s worth it for how delicious it is. The drinks are great too with a wide selection of options.
