I’d avoid the GF bun it’s very dry and crumbly but they the most celiac safe place I know! Dedicated fryers, very knowledgeable staff and amazing GF fried chicken! When you order online they even have a celiac option to check off.
vancouver’s cutest (and tastiest) ice cream sandwich spot! 🍪🍨
Innocent Ice Cream Parlour is such a gem — gluten-free, vegan-friendly, and absolutely packed with flavor. I grabbed a cookie sandwich with chocolate mint ice cream and it blew me away.
The cookies are soft, the ice cream is rich, and the vibe is super cozy with its pink-themed decor. Great spot for a late-night treat!
Staff were friendly and helpful, and the fact that it’s allergy-conscious makes it a go-to for everyone.
Highly recommend if you're craving something sweet, stylish, and inclusive.
Regular crust pizza is okay but not remarkable. Gluten-friendly crust pizza leaves to be desired. Home artisan potatoes are soft and don’t taste freshly made at all. Customer service is great; very thorough with modifications. We enjoyed their home made lemonade.
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.
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.
You know a pizza is good when you can eat the crust without having to dip it in sauce. Excellent stuff! Will definitely come back. Customer service was fantastic. Kitchen looks super clean. I am not celiac but I saw a customer come in to pickup a GF pie and the gentleman washed his hands before touching the box again to give to the customer. Great stuff!
Let me start with “I don’t leave a review very often”.
We ate at Sopra Sotto two nights in a row it was that good. The first night we took a seat at the bar rather than wait for a table and the second night we asked to sit at the bar because of the wonderful service and interactions we had with Ruairi. Ruairi not only entertained us while we watched him making multiple cocktails but he also made great menu recommendations. The Gnocchi with Braised Beef, Rigatoni Fume Pasta and Lava Chocolate dessert were amazing.
This is the best restaurant we have been to in seven weeks of travelling.
The name of the restaurant is misleading because whilst the pizzas looked amazing it has quite an extensive variety of pasta, antipasti and desserts with a great wine list and cocktails.
I ordered gluten free pasta and desert to share with my husband and he couldn’t tell the difference….their gluten free options are that good.
Absolutely fantastic. Quick service and amazing gluten free options on menu….you wouldn’t even know it was vegan ;)
the Kalimari is a absolute game changer!
In heaven. Most items are or can be made safe for celiac. Had the Yum Bowl…sooooo good. The best part though? GLUTEN FREE ONION RINGS. They were just incredible. If you’re able, come down and chow down. It’s definitely worth it.
My friend and I were in the neighborhood on a weekend so we planned to eat here for lunch. I'd eaten here before, but my friend hadn't. I (Celiac disease) had the Penny Burrito in a bowl with cheese and loved it, especially the cumin potatoes. My friend (vegan) had breakfast tacos and was happy to have a good tofu scramble. We'd definitely come here again.
I visited Neverland Tea Salon on June 7, 2025. It was my first time visiting.
The decor is great, very charming.
I liked that I could try different teas and that they accommodate vegetarian, gluten free and vegan diets.
For the price, the food was disappointing. If you're a foodie, don't go. There isn't anything elevated for the experience.
Unfortunately service was also not great. My friend had to ask three times for someone to bring honey. We had to get up to ask for more tea. Its one thing if staff is busy, its another when they are huddled talking together or on their phones.
However service came alive when we were reminded 4 times that our seating was for only 1.5 hours. We were told 30 mins left, 20 mins left, 15 mins left and 10 mins left when we were trying to pay.
High Tea is supposed to be relaxed and slower paced. Having people trying to herd you out is does not give that vibe.
The menu is SO CLEARLY LABELED! I can’t have gluten or dairy and I had the most fabulous dinner! The cider was also lovely. Kind staff that take allergies very seriously
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!
I have to eat gluten free ( not celiac) and the Dalorit dish (roasted butternut squash) was absolutely delicious in my opinion and of course, gluten free! I would highly recommend!
We were here from Ontario, and read that they served gluten free burgers and fries (my wife and son both have Celiac Disease). They were delicious!! Best burger and fries they've had, and my other two sons and I both loved our non gluten free burgers too. We all liked everything so much we came back a second time during our visit! Excellent and friendly service. Highly recommend!

Food was… overall very salty. Not sure if this is how it is suppose to be but from antipasti to pastas, they were all honestly quite salty. Ingredients may be fresh which we would like to appreciate but they are just too salty to be enjoyed.
On the other hand, the service was great with solid gluten free options.
Wonderful food and service. They accommodated our son's peanut and tree nut allergies with ease and were so kind about it, which doesn't always happen. Such a cute vibe and location. Would come again and recommend especially to allergy families (also very gluten friendly)!
Ordered a few gluten free cakes from vegan bakery Edible Flours.
- Green velvet ($60.00 for 6" GF) - best of the three. Decent matcha flavour
- Raspalicious ($60.00 for 6" GF) - texture lacking, mute flavour. Wanted more raspberry
- S'mores ($60.00 for 6" GF) - bland
EF's cakes are nowhere close to the quality of the other, better GF bakeries in town.
BEST PLACE FOR GLUTEN FREE/VEGAN FINE DINING!!! Super fancy, absolutely delicious, amazing atmosphere with the live musicians. My fiance and I were swooning over how luxurious our anniversary dinner was. Its been a long time since we've found a place that meets our dietary restrictions AND makes us feel like we had a real fancy night out. Cannot recommend this place enough. Also, try the silk route feast! Its worth every penny!!🤤
This place is a hidden gem. A women owned business which serves delicious vegan options. Restaurant does not have huge seating space but can accommodate a group of 6-8.
We tried Bombay Bad Boy pizza and were surprised with flavor. I will highly recommend trying "Almond Cassava" crust; it is gluten free but not too hard or crispy.
Definitely worth visiting if you are vegan/vegetarian food lover or, interested in trying vegan food.
We have been going to Asian’s with our family for years and it is the closest we have found to a UK curry in Vancouver - which is a huge compliment as the best curry restaurants in the world are in the UK!
Chef Rick has been in this business for over 45 years and he makes everyone feel welcome. All dishes are freshly prepared. He is there early every day prepping all the ingredients. For diabetics it is particularly good - he does not use sugar but instead does magic with onions to introduce a sweetness. This makes the butter chicken the best ever. I can eat here without the food spiking my blood sugars at all - as long as I don’t stuff in too much Nan!
The Tandoori mix grill is the best I have had. Mushroom matter is a favorite as is Lamb Sag. Did I mention the butter chicken!
He often gives our grandkids a box of home made sweets to go. Gluten free options available and ample free parking on the street outside.
I have noticed that Prices have not gone up since before COVID - go along as you won’t be disappointed.
Service and atmosphere are great but food is beyond mid and overpriced considering the lack of real flavour, definitely not the most enjoyable sushi, iki is miles better for gluten free folks. But this place was alright.
Gluten free waffles with caramel sauce and sautéed bananas. Amazing!! You can also substitute the gf waffles as a savoury base for their eggs Benedicts. So scrumptious!

East is East is hands-down one of the most unique and soulful dining experiences you’ll find in the city. From the moment you walk in, you’re enveloped by the cozy, bohemian vibe—dim lighting, live music, and aromatic spices drifting from the kitchen. The décor and ambiance transport you somewhere between Istanbul and Kathmandu.
I highly recommend the “Chai Feast”—a rotating selection of dishes from across the Silk Road served tapas-style. Every bite is rich, layered, and made with love. Personal standouts: the Afghan eggplant, lamb kebabs, and the mango butternut squash stew. And don’t miss their house chai—refillable, spiced to perfection, and served with a smile.
The staff are warm and knowledgeable, and the entire experience feels like you’re a guest in someone’s beautifully curated home. Whether you’re a meat-eater, vegan, or gluten-free, there’s something flavorful and nourishing here for you.
This isn’t just dinner—it’s a cultural experience. Perfect for date night, out-of-town visitors, or when you just need a warm soul-hug in the form of food.

Absolutely amazing gluten-free ramen. If you are celiac, I highly recommend this place! My friend and I got the same dish, mine was gluten free. The staff was also wonderful.
Afternoon tea is my birthday tradition. Living in Victoria, I have tried all the options there, and was excited for the opportunity to try a new place in Vancouver when there for a birthday weekend. Secret Garden exceeded all my expectations and prior experiences. The atmosphere was beautiful, service was attentive and friendly, the tea selection was extensive, and most importantly, the food was outstanding! Hands down the BEST sandwiches and pastries I’ve had to date. Everything was flavorful and moist, which seems hard to accomplish for us gluten free folks. 10/10 recommend and will be back. If they ever expand to Victoria, I will be a regular
Pretty good portion on the dosas if you get their Dosa of the day. I like the lamb on Tuesdays. Pretty fast at in-between times (non-dinner time) when they are quite empty. The dosa is probably gluten-friendly but you might want to ask if other ingredients inside it are gluten-friendly too.
Phenomenal pizza, very friendly service, gf has celiac allergy, restaurant takes proper care in minimizing cross contamination, the gluten-free crust was delicous, highly recommend. However, they are very busy. When booking a reservation, it is at least a week beforehand if you are trying to go on Friday/Saturday.
Came here with my girlfriend for lunch and Jody was absolutely wonderful. Treated us with so much kindness and had so much patience for my gluten free diet. Above all, her energy was magnetic - she was an absolute pleasure. I would come back just because of her!
Absolutely amazing experience 😍 the injera was perfectly soft and fluffy. And the gluten free version was even better! The Yebeg wot and th vegetarian wots were delectable! The lentil with tomatoes sauce was my favorite 🤤
And the servers were so sweet! They're so attentive and friendly. They gave us scooping spoons to help scoop up the leftovers. Would definitely come back and bringing my friends. More people need to try Ethiopian food!
Delicious vegetarian menu including several signature concoctions and several dishes which are also gluten free, or vegan or vegan option. Every food dish is healthy here. At least everything here is served with healthy intent. I only say this because they do serve beer and wine also.
Food was great. They do gluten free batter and its amazing amazing! Its not often I get to have battered fish and chips so a great treat. Proper chips too and mushy peas. Yum! I will be back.
I will however that the very busy bartender didn't know of his own establishments policies and practices surrounding gluten free. Everything is prepared separately. Use an app like find me GF if you want a more accurate picture of any establishment.
We where served so well by the staff esp Ashwanth. The food was awesome and gluten free allergy was well taken care off. Highly recommend for ambience and Tasty Indian food.
Best brunch in Van imo. Place is so nice, the staff inviting, the food excellent. Big portions and everything was tasty. They have a fantastic gluten free bread, which is always a plus. Totally recommend!
Famous foods is hands down the best little grocery store in Vancouver. And I say little bit it has everything you needs, has a bigger range of specialty goods (organic, gluten free, minimal packaging) then a lot of the bigger and more expensive stores. It’s quick to get in and do a shop and leave without feeling overwhelmed. Can’t say enough good things about this place. Family favourite through and through.
