Top 11 Gluten-Free Celiac Friendly Spots to Discover in Lincoln

I purchased a gluten-free cake from Goldenrod Pastries for my wedding, and it was so delicious! We had several guests with Celiac disease, and they were so excited when they had a gluten-free option that was amazing. I wish I would have ordered a bigger one! Definitely recommend!

My cowboy up burger was very good. Could have used a bit more seasoning and was missing the bacon but I enjoyed it. I had their gluten free bun and I have never seen a gf bun like theirs but it tasted pretty good. The sweet potato fries were delicious and the service was good. Friendly staff.

A modern swanky intimate cider house. The ciders weren't overly sweet and had unique blends. It is a 100% gluten free facility, so we felt comfortable ordering (my husband is Celiac). Delicious food, but a touch expensive; however, we felt it was so worth it. There were also options with goat cheese. Service was a touch slow because there was only one person working front and back of house, but he was super great.

Terrible restaurant. We ate at a similar place in KC many years ago and loved the big salad bar, so we were excited to try the salad bar here. The website makes it sound like its got lots of gluten free options, but the reality of the experience was much different. Food looked like it had been out forever, nothing tasted fresh, most of it was flavorless or terrible tasting. The salad bar itself was small with minimal selections. We instantly regretted our decision to eat here. Barely anyone else in the restaurant and even while we didn't get the meat, the meat looked overcooked and you hardly saw them bringing anything out. Highly recommend to avoid.

We love Tico’s!! The last two times we’ve gone we’ve had Tierra as our server. She’s such a delight & provides us wonderful service! She even remembered us from her first time serving us. So personable I truly can’t say enough good things about her. I’m celiac too and I’ve never had an issue here, their gluten free menu has quite a few options.

Honest Abe’s Downtown is hands down one of the best burger spots in Lincoln. Their rotating burger specials are what keep me coming back—they’re always creative, always delicious, and sometimes a little outside the box in the best way possible. One of the biggest surprises for me? Peanut butter on a burger. I had never even considered it before, but after trying one of their specials that featured peanut butter, I was completely hooked. It added this amazing creamy texture and a slight sweetness that balanced perfectly with the savory beef and toppings. Now, I put peanut butter on every burger I make at home—it’s that good. On top of their incredible burgers, Honest Abe’s is also super accommodating. They offer vegan burger options and gluten-free buns, so everyone can enjoy an awesome meal here. Whether you’re adventurous with flavors or need something customized, they’ve got you covered. If you love burgers and want to try something different (and life-changing), this is the place to go!

I ordered takeout from Hiro and had a really frustrating experience. The app never notified me when my food was ready, and there were no gluten free labels on anything even though I noted my celiac allergy. The host said he was “95-99% sure” the Brussels sprouts were gluten free, which isn’t good enough for a medical condition. I had to go back in for gluten free soy sauce, the staff was cold and unhelpful, and they forgot chopsticks. Worst of all, I started feeling sick shortly after eating, which makes me worry about cross contamination. This isn’t the first time I’ve had issues with gluten safety or service here.

UPDATE: shortly after leaving this review them owner reached out to me to make it right for me getting sick. Today they sent my sister & I both $25 gift cards to be used either at Honest Abes, Stouffers or a Pizza place they own. Sucks I got sick, but I love when a company will admit their mistakes and make it right. Changed my stars because the service is just as important as safe food. I ordered from doordash. Ive eaten here before and never had a problem. I have Celiacs Disease so I have to have it certified Gluten Free. The other two stores not an issue. However within minutes of eating im in the bathroom Glutened. It tasted good, seasoned right except for my "Hammer of Thor" was 10× spicier than it normally is and half the burger was still raw. Also heard from a Door Dasher that its all cooked on the same surface. Maybe yall need to take Honest out of yalls name.
