Top 50 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Delight in Milwaukee

Sam Spellman

The actually gluten free options are limited and my food has consistently come out lukewarm every time I’ve eaten here. Waffles and pancakes are cooked on shared equipment/surfaces. They do claim to have a gluten free fryer for the potatoes and toaster for bread. I’ve eaten the potatoes with no reaction but haven’t chanced the bread as it’s common to get moody servers when it’s busy who don’t want to be helpful.

I’ve been going here since I went to Marquette years ago and to go back with celiac and be able to eat gluten free sushi is a win. They mark the gluten free items on their menu and even have gf soy sauce.

Awesome gluten free and vegan choices! Fresh juice and smoothies! Everything including the atmosphere was excellent!

went here for brunch! had a latte and egg scramble, waitress was educated on celiac disease and said that the eggs were cooked on a stovetop without gluten (toasted bread, etc). substituted toast for fruit at no cost. i didn’t have any symptoms afterwards!

Appreciate that they have a gluten free brunch menu!!

Incredible experience. The food was delicious, and super accommodating to multiple dietary restrictions. They have an independent gluten free menu, clearly marked vegetarian and vegan options, and soooo many options for drinks. The atmosphere was lovely, and super inviting. Lots of seating, outdoor and indoor. Child friendly, too!

I brought a party to the Harbour House for two special occasions because it’s on the water one of the few restaurants in Milwaukee. Being a vegan and gluten-free, I knew it was not the best choice for me, but for such an occasion to only be able to have a salad and potatoes was disappointing to say the least. I realize it’s mainly a seafood restaurant but options outside of that were so limited That it was almost laughable. The food that everyone else had was very good. One of our servers was so incredibly friendly, and the other was annoyed that I asked for alternative milk and also that I had to order just sides. I will not be going back ever, but but it is not to say it is not a good experience for people who eat animals.

Not only was this cake beautiful and delicious but I felt amazing after I ate it (and I ate a lot)! It wasn’t just those of us with sensitivities that loved it, but also the gluten and dairy lovers in the family. I highly recommend BLB for any special events. They worked with us to create this beauty, and it went perfect with the vibe of our wedding. Thank you for being such a dream - not just on my wedding day but anytime I need to treat myself. Literally going there now…

Catered Beans and Barley for a post-wedding family picnic in the park! The process was seamless and we had so many great options to choose from. When we ordered, Jennifer made sure that we had enough food for 100 people and met dietary restrictions (nut-free, some vegetarian, some gluten-free). The day of, the team set everything up - including heated pans - all we needed to do was bring plates! Everyone complimented the spread - the turkey chutney sandwiches and the hummus on the veggies were guest favorites. And the pear coffee cake! Everything was clearly labelled and clean up was a breeze. Could not have been easier or more delicious - would order again!

I got an avocado and egg sandwich with gluten-free bread. It was so good and the fresh fruit on the side was really good too. It wasn't loud in the cafe and the overall atmosphere was really relaxing. I really loved going here!

Jaclyn Davis

The employees were so sweet and helpful. EVERYTHING is gluten free. Arepas and empanadas with some fun and also classic fillings. I dove into mine so far I didn’t get a picture. It was so delicious. A must go to when in Milwaukee.

There’s a separate menu for gluten-free. Staff was very accommodating.

Natasha Girard

Atmosphere was trendy and cool. Servers were nice and accommodating for dietary restrictions. We waited a very long time for food, and it was toward the end of service, so it was unclear why. Food was very good. Spamelette was really unique and flavorful. My stomach was upset for a couple hours after eating though, perhaps from the richness. But my friend was also quite sick after she ate a dish they prepared dairy free, gluten free.

Laura French

Wonderful gluten free options. The gluten pizza is amazing. Gluten free pasta is too. If your getting to go double check your order before you leave tho sometimes there are mix ups. Fav place to go for gluten free pasta and pizza

Matthew Brugman

Good celiac safe yummy food!

Mary K

Great atmosphere. I understand that it's where you can get about the best pint of Guinness in Milwaukee. I do wish they would make the gravy gluten free like they do in Ireland - it's an easy fix

Kathryn Fairman

Ordered online, I had been told they were glutenfriendly and included my requests on the online order though they had said I should have the option to choose extras on the site. Food was prepped quickly. They forgot the dressing for my salad, the fries for the appetizer sampler were limp and the fried mozzarella sticks were cool.

Just had the worst experience here which is crazy because it was a spot I usually frequent due to them have gluten free items (I have celiacs). There were just a lot of micro issues that added up. First I walked in by myself and was told I could sit anywhere and I chose a booth. Waitress walked up, never greeted me and sat everything (water, menus, silverware) on the opposite side of the table from where I was sitting, okay that's fine, not too worried just moved it closer to me, then just walked away without greeting or really even asking if she could get me anything else. Not a word. Okay fine I get bad days. I then sat for 15 minutes before I had to eventually ask another waitress to take my order. I was very kind, smiley and tactful the entire time so I'm just really confused, She literally rolled her eyes and said okay, so I proceeded to order and I warned her I had celiacs and just wanted to make sure if she could let the kitchen know it's for a gluten allergy and to make sure the bread it gluten free (again being very kind). She acted like I told her to bite my toenails off?? I then get my order 20 minutes later and it's super cold and not to mention I found not one, not two, not even three but four strands of hair all over my plate. AND it was NOT gluten free bread! | was starving and unfortunately didn't notice till I took a bite and looked (plus when I had my gluten symptoms the next day from it). This is my second time getting glutened by them, my fault for thinking it would be different this time. Not to mention, all the servers were standing around talking the entire time and nobody came to check on me or anything at all. The menu revamp is different and they took off a few items that I loved. So I don't know. I just took the check and left. It was just the poorest service i've ever experienced since being in Milwaukee, I will not be coming here again. *NOT CELIAC OR GLUTEN SENSITIVE SAFE* I don't normally write bad reviews but I need to come on here for my fellow celiacs and gluten sensitively/allergen people.

All you can eat Brazilian steakhouse. We enjoyed taking our time and sampling everything. Everything from the grill is gluten free and the salad bar is clearly marked. Nicol was our server and she made it a nice evening for us.

We had a wonderful Mother’s Day experience this year, and they were very kind and considerate of my mother’s gluten allergy. Will be going back!

Any time I can find myzithra in Milwaukee I am immediately invested, and Avli did not disappoint! Having gluten free pita available for the hummus was another lovely surprise, the view is beautiful, experience was enchanting. We will be back in warmer weather to enjoy the patio!

Very friendly staff who worked really hard to customize menu items so our gluten free friends could have an amazing breakfast! We love it here!

Delicious, lots of gluten free options, feels like you're getting a fresh home cooked meal made with love and care. Worth the wait! My only recommendation is to put more sauce or at least have some extra easily available. I went up to the counter to ask for more sauce since my wrap was a bit dry but the staff was very busy. Plenty of tables, great location to meet up with friends as there is a variety of food vendors to choose from in the shared space.

Cafe India is a go-to, tried and true kind of place. Ive never had anything I didn’t like from Cafe India, and I’ve tried a pretty good portion of the menu. This place is perfect for a lazy-takeout night in, a lunch with friends, or an upscale dinner date. It can be whatever you want it to be. The service is great, atmosphere good, prices decent, and food tasty. And it’s Indian, which means it is perfect for your gluten free or vegetarian loved ones. Half the menu is vegetarian, and GF is clearly marked.

Adam Moscinski

Wow! Went to Maharaja with my family for Father’s Day and was completely blown away. There are a couple allergies in my family, and the staff here went so above and beyond with Gluten Free and Dairy Free accommodations. I had the Chicken Tikka Masala with two different types of fresh bread. 10/10, some of my favorite Indian food I’ve had. The service was outstanding as well. It is clear that they take great pride in this place and truly care for the customer experience. I will be back many more times. Thanks!

Megan Landry

Had lunch here with my husband and our toddler. They do have a kids menu, you just have to ask. Options are either chicken tenders or grilled cheese with fruit or chips. He can be picky but we ordered him the chicken with fruit and he liked it. I had the sesame ginger chicken sandwich. I am gluten free and our waiter was knowledgeable and ensured my meal was safe for me. I’d definitely go back and try something else.

Great for catering - we ordered the taco bar for a birthday party and it couldn't have been smoother. Everyone loved the food, even our vegan guest with a gluten allergy was able to enjoy it. Thank you Cafe Corazon, and Nicole!

Joe Ludwig

I've been to Wonderland a couple times now, and have enjoyed the experience both times. Friendly staff, great food, cool atmosphere. We haven't had an issue getting a table when we had a party of 4. Even the standard burger is nice and juicy, and full of flavor, and the gluten free bun it came on was better than your average gluten free bun. I was going to take pictures of my food, but I ate it too fast!

Kate CW

Whole gluten free menu that makes a majority of the regular menu accessible!

Paige Daniels

I review gluten free friendly restaurants in the area, I called to ask if a couple of menu items were gluten free, the first lady on the phone that I talked to wasn’t the nicest, everyone has bad days though. The second lady I spoke to, (could have been the same person) couldn’t hear me very well it was probably very loud in the restaurant but I have a high pitched voice so I apologize. They told me on the phone that everything was cooked on the same surface so they couldn’t offer a gluten free experience, but I’ve never had a reaction at Denny’s or other places that say the same so I decided to try it…. And no gluten reaction!! The food was so delicious and the portions were quite big and filling!! The fruit cup was bigger than I thought it would be! If you’re gluten free and have never had a reaction at Denny’s or places like that then you should definitely try toast! ;)

Food was excellent. Loved the gluten free options. My mom and I were visiting from out of town. We enjoyed our breakfast and service from Dakota so much on Saturday, we made an extra stop Sunday before our flight back to PA.

I come with a group once a week. They are sooo amazing. They make sure we have a couple tables set aside every single week. The waitress memorizes all of our usual orders and is extremely patient with our large group. I have a gluten allergy and feel very safe eating here. Overall, amazing service :)

Delicious food in a great environment. Everyone was wonderful, and bartenders were amazing. Drinks were strong and unique. They have gluten free options on the menu, and seemed to be accommodating for a variety of food restrictions. Charred octopus was great, as was the Mac n cheese with braised short rib, and the pan seared half chicken. Decor and ambiance was great as well

Tanya Kloeffler

Love the protein waffles here and the smoothie bowls. Also the smoothies are delicious as well. Favorite part is everything is made fresh and healthy options for those of us with food allergies. Also try their gluten free protein balls.
