Top 50 Gluten-Free Cafes to Delight in Adelaide

Simon McDaide

A hidden gem in the heart of Adelaide! Cafe Troppo is hands down one of the best cafes in Adelaide for anyone seeking great coffee, sustainable food and a relaxed atmosphere. From the moment you step in , you’re greeted with a warm, community-focused vibe that truly reflects the spirit of Adelaide’s vibrant cafe culture. The coffee here is exceptional- consistently smooth and perfectly brewed using ethically sourced beans. I had a flat white that was the best I’ve tasted in the CBD. The food menu is a celebration of local and seasonal produce with plenty of vegan , vegetarian and gluten free options. I had the chilli eggs followed by the vegan carrot cake, both delicious and beautifully presented. Located on Whitmore Square, Cafe Troppo offers a tranquil escape from the city buzz, with a cosy interior and leafy outdoor seating. Their commitment to sustainability and low-waste practices really sets them apart. If you’re looking for a top rated breakfast spot in Adelaide or just want to enjoy locally sourced food and amazing coffee, you can’t go past Cafe Troppo. Highly recommended!

I popped in here desparate for some quick, easy to eat food on the go and got the wild zataar and veg on gluten free bread. Any one who needs to avoid gluten understands how most gluten free bread completely sucks, so I was pleasantly surprised when I bit into this and the bread was deliciously crispy, chewy in texture, and wasnt dry!!! Decent espresso. Atmosphere, very small inside, crowded/was super busy. Pretty expensive

We were visiting Adelaide as an early birthday gift for my husband’s 30th, and I wanted to book a special dinner for him—Luigi Delicatessen was a great choice! The whole evening had a fun, lively vibe with live music that added a special touch. The staff were warm, energetic, and had such a personable nature—it really felt like they enjoyed being there. I was especially impressed by how well they knew the menu off by heart! As someone with celiac disease, I really appreciated how well they catered to my dietary requirements without any fuss. The Ciao Amore drink was absolutely delicious—full of flavour and beautifully presented. All in all, a memorable and enjoyable dining experience. Highly recommend! ☺️

The service and atmosphere are great, and it's a cafe I'd like to come back to again! I ordered a chai latte and a gluten-free chocolate cookie. It was so great👏✨ I want to come again.

Michelle Hedger

We come here regularly for coffee and breakfast. They are always very quick and the eggs on toast are a great price. They have separate tongs for gluten free cabinet treats for coeliac safety.

Jessica Hoffmann

Delicious food - Gluten Free 👍👍 Ordered via QR code - not happy when asked to provide my address and a bunch of other info.. Not a lot of people and fairly quiet overall. Complimentary Water jug (enamel) had rust in the bottom, so we chose not to have any..

loved this place! wonderful and friendly service along with delicious food! great little place in the city to try for brunch/lunch. Also the staff were very conscious about allergies (gluten free etc) which is rare to see these days!

Lara

Food was nice and tasty, came quite quickly, service was on and off, but the place was extremely busy so it was completely understandable. I don’t normally eat lamb as I don’t like the taste but the lamb rack was so tasty! They also cater for vegans, vegetarians and coeliacs. Curry so nice too and excellent wine list. Only complaint was it was noisy but if you want to avoid that, go during weeknights

Great gluten free options available

Miriam Gravino

Ordered 1 egg on gluten free bread no butter with bacon and Avocado. Plate was placed in front of me with thin sandwich xut in half. I asked about Avocado. There was a thin smear on I slice of toasted bread. The waitress called it "smashed". The egg and bacon were OK but bread was very hard and parts couldn't be chewed. Tried my best though. Not worth $25 with small soft drink. Not going there ever again..

Evie Blenheim

Amazing service and catered for every requirement. Gf pasta came out at the same time and the same size meal as the others

Lara

Great little cafe, I only tried their cupcakes and they are amazing! I gave 4 stars and not 5 as they only had 1 type of gluten free cupcake… customer service is more than 5 stars though! Another suggestion is to please stop using plastic containers and have paper boxes instead.

Monique Phoenix

First time eating here, so good!!! My vegan/gluten free toastie was fantastic and my wife enjoyed her bacon on toast! Great coffee with awesome service too!!

I really enjoyed my experience here - it’s definitely a meeting place . The atmosphere is quite lively , and it’s situated down a small laneway right near the Central Market . There is indoor and outdoor seating , and they also sell some condiments and specialised food items , as well as a selection of cookbooks, and some hot chocolate powder from Morks, which is a specialised well known chocolate shop in Melbourne . Market street cafe also have their own little bakery , which means fresh in house bread . Their coffee of choice was D’Angelo , which is a local coffee roaster , with a deep chocolaty taste. I had an iced almond latte and enjoyed this brew . Gluten free options are not particularly wide , but I did have a Reuben sandwich with a twist , ( with kimchi and gochujang mayo ) and was pleasantly surprised by the gluten free bread , which was thick and seeded - delicious. Worth a visit, especially if you visit the Central Market.

Ashton Tarbard

Great range of healthy food and drinks available. Variety of Vegan, vegetarian and Gluten free options. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Sarah Spackman

Fantastic! The two people serving and making drinks were an absolute vibe 🫰🏻 My coffee tasted as if it came from heaven and the food… mouth watering goodness. Thank you so much, we’ll be back! Oh I should probably add that I’m a sensitive gut gurl, so almond milk and gluten free options were available 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Megan Vassallo

This is the second time I’ve been here. Great coffee and Mexican breakfast foods! The staff is very nice. Would highly recommend. We got the breakfast quesadilla and the smashed avocado on gluten free bread. Very nice. 👍🏼

Yummy food. Gluten free and vegan options available. Kale salad with a falafel or two and hummus is my favourite.

Yannis Brown

This is the second time I have been here and is a little gem away from the hustle of the main Rundle area and extensions. I had time to kill between appointments, so I sat myself down for a remote work and had an eggs Benedict and coffee . OMG, that gluten-free Benny with salmon is one of the best I have had. Just like I judge a good Dim Sum restaurant, or as we call it here in Australia "Yum Cha", based on its Sui Mai, I equivalate a cafe with its ability to produce a good Eggs Benedict. Super friendly staff and a relaxed, cozy environment. Tables outside, which I also noticed some peope on their laptops as well getting a spot of work in.

I Dined at Cozinha for lunch. And I was blown away! A lot of kitchens do not understand how to respect food. To cook them in a certain way so they remain fresh for the customer, and to retain the flavour. But the Chef at Cozinha really does. This shows passion and love for the job. The vibe/atmosphere is unique. Plenty of smiles, friendly talks, and Brazilian banter. This is a three dimensional business, and in my opinion will never stop progressing. There are plenty of gluten free options and vegetarian/vegan options. A big “Obrigado” from me!

First time visitor today, lovely greeting by the team, ordered the shared brekkie platter for two and one of us is coeliac, so as asked to have the sourdough w eggs on the side. There was some confusion there as the generous share platter arrived w GF eggs on toast on the side - but the team were so gracious in discussing the mix up and replaced the platter. The Oj and coffee are exceptional. The attitudes and energy of the team members who served us was exceptional. The breakfast platter for 2 is delicious, generous and likely enough to feed 3. But we had a great breakfast taking our time to graze and enjoy more coffee as everyone cruised by on Hutt St. I see why this place is popular and will happily return for big and small bites + sips.

A lovely place to have breakfast or brunch at. Good service, good prices and good food! Gluten free friendly.

Adam C

Great options for coffee and pastries. Vegan and gluten free options available. Interesting view of staff preparing pastries in the background ! Only downside would be the time for the coffee to be served - finished the pastry before getting the coffee! For 6.30$ a coffee, would be nice to get it right. Otherwise, undeniably delicious.

Kelly Carpenter

Gluten free options available. Super friendly and welcoming to my small dog.

Trevor Scott

Enjoyed a morning coffee and cake, coffee was and cake was very good. Checked out the lunch menu, decided to return for lunch. We decided on the mushroom soup and smoked salmon, avocado and poached egg on rye, absolutely delicious. We found the service excellent, tables clean and tidy. The menu offers vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free. The prices were very reasonable, will return.

Tranquil atmosphere, owners are Muslim and Filipino. Beef bacon is halal, not sure about the chicken. Lots of vegetarian and gluten free options and a few vegan options as well.

Matthew Martin

Great Korean cafe resturant. Delightfully tasty food beautifully prepared and presented. Concise but diverse menu with several gluten free & a few Vego options. Prompt and friendly service from staff. Coffee was excellent too. Recommended.

Oh my goodness, let me tell you about my experience at Hello Sarnie Cafe! As someone with gluten intolerance, it can be quite a challenge to find a place that caters to my dietary needs without sacrificing flavor. But this cafe absolutely nailed it! Their menu boasts an impressive selection of gluten-free options that are both delicious and satisfying. From mouth-watering sandwiches to delectable pastries, I couldn't believe how much variety they had to offer. And the best part? The quality of the food was absolutely top-notch. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and I didn't feel like I was missing out on anything despite my dietary restrictions. If you're someone who struggles to find great food choices due to gluten intolerance, I cannot recommend Hello Sarnie Cafe enough. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you!

Great place for a break at uni! I'm gratefull for the vegan options (there are gluten free options as well!) Friendly people :)

Bill Palmer

Caught up with a friend here recently. Good coffee, gluten free options and generous portion sizes. Will definitely be back again soon!

Quality cafe. 👌 Was lovely to be introduced to this cafe today. I ordered my usual iced soy mocha and this time got a strawberry cream donut. The venue was modern and relaxed. They had a good blend of Asian fusion mains and sides. My friends burger and fries looked amazing! The coffee was bold yet had fruity tones interlaced. It was very strong. It came with a dollop of icecream (they asked first as I ordered soy) I would give it a 4.6/5 ⭐ The donut was surprising and the strawberry cream inside was delightful. I'm not much of a donut fan, but I would give it a 4.5/5 ⭐ The staff were friendly, and they took the time to work out gluten free options for my friend. Looks like a great spot to chill with a laptop. :') It was on the pricey side, but worth it. :)

karen Deer

Great coffee and love the gluten free range

Lucinda Penn

I had a lovely lunch experience sitting outside on a sunny day in the shade. The salads were so delicious - I particularly loved the dressing on the Green Greek and Satay Broccoli. And also appreciate the pasta in the Pasta Salad being gluten free! And the staff were super super friendly and accommodating of dietary needs too. 💚💚💚💚

Jamie Rowe

Updated: Great coffee shop! Friendly service. Some gluten free options. Extra seating downstairs. *Got a brownie today, was so hard I could use it as a weapon. 😆 The staff did swap it for another. Which was also quite tough.

Zoe Kleinig

Great atmosphere, amazing service and delicious cocktails and food! We had wings, sandwiches and they even prepared some great gluten free alternatives for us and we loved it all!! Would definitely come back here to try everything else on the menu!

Christine Bell

My family had brunch here on our recent holiday. We all enjoyed our meals. They have great gluten free options and the staff are well trained on cross contamination and coeliac safety. This cafe was recommended on coeliac pages and I felt confident eating there. The staff are lovely and so is the coffee!
