Top 50 Gluten-Free Cafes Across Canada

Elizabeth Jent

The best gluten-free pastries I've ever had, by miles. Even more impressive, they remain soft and delicious the next day. Highly recommend!

Really good and safe ✌️gluten-free! The sandwiches were delicious; I went there three times. I customized them: honey mustard, bacon, egg, and onion pickles! It's worth the detour! The only downside is the wait, but the sandwiches are really good and made live, amazing! Really good and safe ✌️gluten-free The sandwiches were delicious; I went there three times.

Brendan Jaekl

Amazing 100% gluten free restaurant

Amanda Fyfe

I love this place!! The gluten free!! The amazing ness!!! I go back every time I'm in monteral JUST to get the Passioned fruit white chocolate mouse cake thingy. It's one of the best desserts iv ever had. This place is tied for the best gluten free place in Canada, the only other place is the lemon tree in Vancouver to hold a chandle to it.

A. Johnsen

My favorite place to go every time I visit Vancouver. It’s one of the best gluten free bakeries I know (and I like to visit lots of gluten free bakeries)

Gluten-free specialty store. I was very satisfied with the taste, which didn't feel like it was gluten-free. The employees are kind and it's a recommended place. Some people can also speak Korean.

Henry Reimer

I don't have any problem with gluten. This is just a great bakery.

Divine Blinds

Best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had! Price was good too. 10/10

Dana

Delicious, so many gluten free options. Sweet & Savoury

David Stemen

Ben and Naomi have put together easily one of the best cafes I've ever been to. I only visited twice while in Montreal, but I left feeling like I was a regular. The bread is amazing, the pastries are divine, and the classic Italian-style espresso is some of the best I've had outside of Europe. Whether or not you have Celiac, gluten sensitivity, any other allergies or none at all, I cannot recommend this little fallen piece of Elysium enough.

Victoria Alexander

Not the fanciest bakery and was missing some products, but the food they did have was amazing. It is always great to find these hidden bakeries that are 100% gluten-free. I will definitely be returning.

Since I've been gluten-free (almost two years!), this is one of the few places where I finally feel "normal" when I order a dessert, a loaf of bread, or a delicious meal without having to worry. Everything is delicious, safe, and made with love. Suzie Sans Gluten has literally changed my life. Their caring team, incredible products, and warm atmosphere make every visit a joy.

Jessica Kearney

Amazing little find! I had the sausage breakfast bagel it tasted like Tim Hortons ! Donuts are amazing too!

John Bragg

I took away the strawberry rhubarb pie/tart. It said gluten free but I was expecting at least a gluten free crust. The fruit was so over baked, it was puree. It was too sugary and not tart enough. The crumble on the top was very sparse. For the price, it was disappointingly a rip off.

Winnie's has been a go to for my daughter who has Celiac. We have only purchased their desserts and she LOVES them. Maybe one day we will try some of their other food items. If you are looking for a CAKE you need to pre-order. They have various flavors available.

James Kissick

From ottawa to edmonton this is the best gluten-free treats I have had the pleasure to sample. As someone that became celiac at 47 the baked items are legit and so are the staff.

Eldon James

I was told by a friend to try their gluten-free lemon tart. Initially dubious, I'm now completely enamored. The filling was perfectly tart, and the crust was crisp and buttery.

Laura Parce

Fabulous gluten-free bakery, we had baguette sandwiches, my husband is not gluten-free and he thought it was great. My rhubarb tart was delicious

Follow @bredgyeats for more food pics! You can sprout a new love for gluten-free eats at this local cafe, and you'll hardly miss the gluten. The sandwich is as satisfying as it looks, with ingredients that come together to deliver a delicious bite where basil is the star. They also have a mini side salad, but I opted for an orange almond cake too, and the citrusy addition pairs nicely with the sweet, nutty almond base.

Curt Bigelow

Amazing options, great food, friendly staff!

They had a lot of freezer items, and different shapes of gluten free pastas, which was nice to see. There were also a lot of lovely baked goods in the case. I read that they had GF beaver tails, so that's why I came. I was excited to try my first beaver tail (newcomer to Canada). When I got it, it was slightly warm on the edges, but refrigerator-cold and damp in the middle. My partner told me they are usually fried, so it should have been piping hot. It was disappointing. I was thinking about getting a sandwich, but overheard someone ask about getting pasta, but it would have taken 40 min for that. Surprising, since they use the dried pasta they sell to make it. I had some questions about items, but felt dismissed and almost belittled by the answers. I was off-put by the rude tone, and combined with my disappointing menu item, won't be back. I'm sure it's fine if you're just going for cookies or frozen goods, but some other folks and myself were wondering if someone was actually there. It took quite some time for the owner to come out from the back. Not sure if that's the norm- maybe they were short-staffed, but don't go unless you have lots of extra time to spare.

This bakery is a gluten-free paradise! Every treat is 100% gluten-free and absolutely delicious. Perfect for those with dietary restrictions or anyone craving tasty, safe baked goods. Highly recommend!

Andre

Have been going here for many years. Best prices, quality, taste for a gluten free bakery in Ottawa

Nick N

Great small business, not many people put as much pride into there work as cal, from sourcing the best ingredients and always pushing the boundaries of gluten-free food this store embodies what all Gluten-Free products should be trying to do 👌 I'm not even gluten free. My aunt is I just get snacks for her and eat them on occasion and find they're phenomenal! 10/10 👌

Stephanie Burston

We are from North Vancouver and every time we go to Kelowna, we make a trip out to Jaide & Joel's Baking Co. Everything they sell is amazing! I am plant based and celiac and this place for me is heaven. Aside from the sweets, We particularly love the pizza crusts and cheese, jalapeño bread!

Braden White

Best gluten free pastry I've ever had

Plant Matter Kitchen is such a wonderful place to enjoy healthier, delicious options. Everything on the menu is vegan, and most items are gluten-free or can be made gluten-free, which I really appreciate. One of my absolute favourite desserts is their blueberry cheesecake—so creamy and flavourful, you’d never guess it’s vegan and gluten-free. Their chocolate cake is just as divine—rich, moist, and totally indulgent. Truly a slice of heaven! The presentation is always so beautiful. The vibe is warm and welcoming, and the staff, especially the waitresses, are always so friendly and lovely. It’s a spot I keep coming back to, and I always leave feeling satisfied and happy.

Morgan A.

Solid 5 stars!!! EVERYTHING is gluten free. The cafe is beautiful and so zen. I got a green onion & cheddar scone and was recommended the blueberry apple crumble muffin. Delicious!

Andrea Adam

What a treat. I live gluten-free and to be able to feed a little urge for classics like baked goods or a chicken pot pie is just wonderful. And they are sooo friendly ☺️

Aimee Newton

Cutest bakery and cafe! Really tasty gluten and dairy free breads, made fresh every Thursday! Great selection of gluten-free desserts. Not celiac friendly, but those looking for GF items it is great.

Paul Cooper

Super coffee and gluten free cake options

Jennifer Heard

Absolutely love Communitea Cafe in Canmore! The vibe is warm and welcoming, the food is fresh and flavourful, and there are tons of clearly marked gluten-free and vegan options. As someone with celiac disease, I felt completely safe eating here. Great service, amazing teas, and a beautiful space. Highly recommend!

danisa

Fave gluten free bakery in Kits. The turkey & cheese croissant is a favorite. Alongside their paninis and sweet baked goods. I enjoy stopping here for takeout to bring to the beach for a morning breakfast or late lunch.

Eric McDonald

Amazing coffee, the biggest ice cream cone I've ever seen and great croissants! Gluten free snacks as well!

Shana S

Delicious mini tarts. Loved the pecan for sweet and the beef for savory !

Rob Aleksic

Excellent plant based gluten-free menu 👌 Will recommend anytime 😊

This is a completely unprecedented gluten-free haven. The last time I had a gluten free pizza, it was getting close to 40$ for one small one. Here, I paid 20$ and could hardly finish it I was so full (and I'm 150 KG). Loaded with flavour and protein, and as a bonus it was keto. I had a gluten-free keto tiramisu, and it was everything you could possibly ask for from a tiramisu. Perfect. This place is a must-see for anyone following a gluten free, keto, or really any alternative diet. As a celiac of 16 years, this place has my blessing.

Vaidehi Patel

I came here to dine in last weekend for the first time, closer to their closing time and was greeted very nicely and food was very amazing! I love all gluten free idea. My drink was a bit bitter so i went and asked for a different drink, the supervisor (im assuming, short brown guy) was very rude to me and said, “what do you want then?” And then slammed the drink on the floor. This is ridiculous behaviour. I understand the hurry to close but this is not the way to go!

Absolutely blown away by Rouge Kitchen! We discovered this gem through the Find Me Gluten Free app and it exceeded all expectations. Dining with someone with celiac, I’m always cautious for them, but Jeff and Jo are incredibly knowledgeable and allergy-aware—they took the time to explain their processes and made us feel completely safe. Nearly everything on the menu can be made gluten free, and they have a dedicated fryer, which is so rare and appreciated. The rotating menu keeps things exciting, and you can really taste the care and quality in every small-batch, homemade dish. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. The food is always fresh, delicious, and made to order—highlights for us were the chicken tenders and Mac n cheese! They are so friendly and helpful, making every visit feel special. If you’re looking for a place that truly understands gluten-free and allergy needs, Rouge Kitchen is a must-visit in Scarborough and worth the drive. Highly recommend! Five stars!

RM

I am celiac. Everything here is amazing. All the desserts are gluten free and there's lots of variety and choice. The sandwiches can be made gf and the coffees are great. The business is female owned and operated so happy to support female entrepreneurs too. The high teas are a great excuse to get together with friends

Darina Stegnii

Absolutely incredible place! Very nice atmosphere, friendly and fast service, delicious bright and sophisticated menu. Gluten-free dishes. I recommend to everyone!

Sarah Desrosiers

The food: Phenomenal. The smoothies are great, the bowls are savory and full of great stuff, the banh mi wrap is my all time favourite... everything is good, filling and healthy! One of the only places I can eat at that doesn't hurt my stomach afterwards (the girls get it). They serve fast, it's easy to order ahead and have meals that are ready to be taken out and cooked at home. The service: Even better. They are kind, accommodating, personable and don't judge you when you've ordered the same thing three days in a row. The location: Feels like a community space. They always have posters of local events, host local artists and it is wheelchair accessible! Based on all my experience there, I'd also say they are neurodivergent friendly - always patient, don't mind repeating themselves and are willing to adjust. FYI: I'm not vegan or gluten-intolerant. :) I just love good food. Keep it up!

These guys have the absolute best gluten free treats that you’ll be able to find in the Hamilton/Niagara region. They also have so many options for gluten free treats too, not just one type of cookie. They have squares, cookies, donuts, cheesecake tarts, bread and more and you can’t even tell it’s gluten free

Jeff Norgren

CELIAC DAUGHTER VIOLENTLY THROWING UP! My wife (also a celiac) confirmed with the Wendle’s staff 3 times that the banana bread is gluten free. It was not. The banana bread was in with all the gluten free items, so after triple checking with the Wendle’s team and seeing the loaf was with the other GF items, we determined it was safe for our 5.5 year old SEVERELY celiac daughter. She’s now thrown up all over our house and is continuing to throw up! When I called Wendle’s to let them know about this horrible situation they said “oh, we don’t serve any gluten free banana bread. Then they offered me a gift card to replace the items my wife bought. TRAIN YOUR STAFF AROUND ALLERGIES! This is not ok! And one more thing… a few years ago my then 3.5 year old and I were at Wendle’s and my daughter was about to pee her pants. The bathroom like up was 20 minutes long, so I asked if she could use the staff bathroom and was told NO in a VERY rude and nasty way. Oh Wendle’s. You should not be as busy as you are.

Dipankar Arora

Healthy food. While ordering I was told that everything here is gluten free. I tried K & K lasagna.

Amber Lynn H

So delicious. Gluten-free Waffle cone and calico ice cream was incredible.

S K

Love it here. It’s so cozy. Lots of their little treats and baked goods are gluten free and I believe they are all vegan. Their brunch menu is good too! Very generous portions. They always play the perfect cozy calm music, you can reserve a table which I would recommend doing on the weekends. I’m the warmer months they have some patio tables out on the sidewalk to watch all the Locke street dogs walking by. The banana bread is 20/10. I also love their matcha oat latte with strawberry syrup.

C D

Delicious gluten free options, had the mushroom toast for brunch which was creamy and very filling. Would come back for dinner!

Marck S

Like this place very much. We tend to visit each time we are in the area. Great selection of vegetarian items, gluten free bakery options, as well as good breakfast and lunch choices.
