Top 19 Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Havens Across Jacksonville

This is one place where I can go to get safe gluten-free pastries and was really disappointed with my last experience. My wife and I went into the shop on 6/28 which is my birthday for me to get a few birthday treats. We were at the bakery counter while the worker was checking out a male customer. The male customer left and two women entered. My wife and I had been waiting at the counter where all the pastries are to order and so the other two women stood on the right hand side of us, closer to the door. The worker with purple hair proceeded to completely disregarded my wife and I and smiled, spoke and attempting to help the two women who had came in after only for them to tell the worker we were they first which the worker already knew and they proceeds to say “oh yes they were” and then comes over to us. This was so off putting and I really appreciate those two women who spoke up. That encounter really shifted the vibe of my day and I will not be returning. Also, the quality of the cupcakes were so poor, they had hardened. There’s no way they were fresh. To the worker, do better. Don’t make people feel small in a place where they are expecting equality. Thank you.

Epik staff take allergies quite seriously. While they don’t have a dedicated space. They changed gloves and tried led up the paper on the work surface. They also changed out cooking equipment. There was an error on the milkshake and it was handled in such a respectful way. But the best part was the BUN on the burger. I got a juicy burger and the bun didn’t fall apart. Better news is they are opening a second location in the Nocatee area?

Foo Dog has been my favorite for years for gluten free food deliciousness. As someone with celiac, this place is a dream come true. Everything is so flavorful and unique from anything else around Jax. I try a new dish or app every time and I’m never disappointed. I love introducing this place to others. My only complaint is that wish I could buy their sauces and vegan popcorn by the gallon!

I'm not a big chain restaurant fan, however, True Food kitchen is an exception. It really is whole food. I appreciate that there are several vegan and gluten-free options. The butternut squash soup and the hot tulsi ginger and tea are somethings I always look forward to.

The Kings Sandwich was most definitely my favorite! It’s a for sure crowd pleaser and a taste of everything! Fries come out hot, fresh, seasoned well, and crispy! Both the regular and the waffle cut sweet potato fries. Sauces were on the table to try at your discretion and the sides are mostly included in everything. The lean brisket was good and next time I’d like to get it more fatty. All the meats and all the sauces (minus one) were gluten free. Come in between 3-6pm for happy hour 10 for 10 wings. I had to get some to go and I was told that they DON’T disappoint! Try it and be satisfied! You can trust me b/c I DON’T play about my food!!!!

I have reviewed this exact location before and gave it five stars but I need to update it. It’s only worth three. Food wasn’t nearly half as good as it was last time. The sausage was dried out. The pancakes were average. I got the peach ones that were on special this month. My wife had gluten pre-pancakes, which were OK for gluten-free. Let’s be real here. But the waiter was rude. He was normally rude to us. He was rude to other people and they may be shortstaffed, but there’s no excuse to treat people like that. They need to be knocked down a notch accordingly.

Such a great find! They had amazing gluten free doughnuts, the matcha and chai were superb and the staff couldn't have been sweeter.

Marc Sing

Great place as always. A little sad they don’t have a dedicated area to cook for gluten free as my wife has celiac. Flavors were great and price is right!

Only pickup and delivery. Everything is gluten-free and dairy-free

Our waitress Kate was absolutely incredible! She was very knowledgeable about the gluten-free options and the kitchen procedures to make sure the food was celiac safe. She was also very kind and the service was amazing!

We stopped for lunch and were pleasantly surprised by the great food and service. Our server, Matt, recommended the Bison Burger, Avalon, and it was delicious. It’s nice to have gluten free dining options, too.

LOVED this place! The gluten free pasta AND chicken parm was so delicious! My friend and I also loved Sean at the bar! A great night out!

I fell in love with both the neighborhood and the restaurant. Their food is so good, and I can order almost anything I like due to the gluten free friendly substitutions. Instead of breaded chickun they grilled my soy curls unbreaded, substituted their house patty that has gluten for a Beyond burger, and served me both on GF buns. I was ecstatic!!! A restaurant where I can enjoy Plant-Based Comfort Food, then enjoy the fantastic nearby shops (I’ll share in upcoming posts) is everything my heart desires. 🥰 FYI: I caution anyone with Celiac’s disease that cross contamination is possible, and the fryer/grill are shared. Gluten Free Fried Pickles: This was the #1 reason I wanted to eat here. Yes, their menu is amazing, but I wasn’t sure I could enjoy much even with a gluten free bun as an option. However, fried pickles have long been a favorite that I haven’t enjoyed in almost a decade, and this is the first restaurant I’ve seen that has them. They were so good, I would order them, even if they didn’t have anything else I could eat. But, thankfully, they do! I had these as a side for the Buffalo Ranch Chickun, specifically prepared to be gluten friendly, per my request. It was absolutely delicious, and I cannot wait to eat it again! I'm also looking forward to another Black Cherry Tarragon Stubborn Soda because it was delicious. Murray Hillbilly has a laid-back atmosphere with books to read and games to play while you wait for your food. There’s even a small assortment of items to buy including t-shirts, hand-crafted hats, and a variety of eco-friendly items. I had to try on the crochet hats. They were absolutely adorable, and for those who don’t know I used to not be able to wear hats because I had too much hair. 😆 I loved that each one was different not just in color but in style, and it was neat to see how they each looked on me. Perhaps next time I’ll leave with one.

Never disappoints. Fabulous food. I cannot do gluten and it was no problem. They even have a separate gf fryer. Highly recommend!!

We stopped by another Broken Egg Café on a whim one morning. My gluten-free pancakes were very light and fluffy; I would definitely order those again. The sausage and eggs were also very tasty. However, the city grits were quite loose and more watery than I expected, so I probably wouldn’t choose those again. We also tried the spiked coffee, which was a bit strong; I think a little less alcohol would have improved it, as it was barely drinkable. We mentioned this to the waitress, and she noted that she tends to pour heavily, so if you enjoy a stronger drink, the spiked coffee might be for you. All in all, it was a good breakfast for a quick bite.

This place has solid food and many gluten friendly options! The customer service is always excellent and fast.

It's rare for upscale restaurants to offer a designated gluten-free menu. I was pleasantly surprised that Iguana on Park not only has a GF menu and the choices are absolutely delicious!

💙 I ate at the Blue Orchid Thai restaurant for the first time this past week with my friend. It captures your attention right away with its beautiful interior and large outdoor eating porch. We decided to sit outside because the weather was so nice. I ordered my fav Thai dish, Drunken Noodles. They are great about taking care of gluten allergies there and the dish tasted very fresh and delicious. My friend got the yellow curry and she loved it. If you love Thai food definitely go The ambiance, food and location are amazing 🤩

When you initially come into the restaurant, you order and are given a buzzer; this is perfect because it eliminates a wait staff rushing you to turn a table, allowing you to enjoy your meal with your family or friends. The restaurant is perfect for large families or solo dining. The portions and quality are worth the price; you feel satisfied without feeling like you overate. Best part, they ask you what temperature you'd like your burger! Can't go wrong with their Cajun burger or Cajun and jack chicken sandwich, that seasoning is magic! My friends typically get a personal pinsa and a side salad, so i'm happy that there are options for my vegetarian and gluten free, lunch group.

Shaun & Riya gave us a great first visit experience! I enjoyed tasting all of the flavors. There is something for everyone - so many unique flavors to choose from, including gluten free and dairy free options. The ice cream is so rich and creamy! The seating area is nice and we enjoyed the outdoor space. Great place!

Hawker’s was my first stop for my trip to Jacksonville. I sure was craving Asian cuisine and this place is the place to go-to. The decor and atmosphere was very lively and see why it is. The food was fantastic and delightful especially the Roast Duck Bao. The Bao is so simple few ingredients which makes it amazing and always been my favorite. The other dishes Roti, C.K.T, Singapore definitely complement each other and can hold its own. Viet-Spresso was a very good twist to the popular espresso martini but more of kicker going into the veins. As I’m typing this, I can taste all the food once again. *multiple items can be made gluten free such as the Singapore Mei fun and the servers are open to finding alternatives for your restrictions.
