Top 50 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots to Enjoy in Lynchburg

We always stop by Blue Ridge Bagels when we are in Lynchburg. They have gluten free options, almost anything on their menu. The food and coffee is delicious!

My wife and I wanted a cheesesteak and had heard good things about La Villa. She got the chicken and I got the steak. Both were delicious, but I was especially pleased with the steak one because it was gluten free. I have had a lot of gluten free bread that is mostly terrible, but this was fantastic. I checked it a couple of times to make sure it wasn't regular bread. Altogether the food was great and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a chance to talk to the owner and it's clear he's gone out of his way to source quality ingredients, including gluten free ones. Would definitely recommend.

I loved this place!! The employees were full of energy, knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. The line for the pizza goes quickly. There are soooo many topping choices I was very impressed. I'm such a pizza snob but this place hit the spot! And that's saying a lot coming from me. The place is very trendy inside and has plenty of seating. The smores dessert was pretty yummy but I wasn't into the cookie. They have beer which I thought was cool. The pizzas are reasonably priced and a good size. Enough to take a slice or 2 home, depending on how much you eat in a sitting. Thw toppings are fresh, which is important to me. They even have different toppings to add once the pizza finishes like slice sauce, pesto, oil, etc. There are different dough choices including gluten free. They even have goat cheese for a cheese option which meant a lot to me (I can't handle cows milk, sadly 😔) my daughters and I were very happy with our meal here and we will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend coming here!!

Always great staff and great food! I'm gluten free and there's always plenty of choices to enjoy a meal. We've been going for years, and we haven't had 1 bad meal yet from them. Quick, quality, prices are far. All around a great place to eat for lunch or dinner! For 1 or for a party of 10 people, there's room inside or out on the front deck. Definitely recommend for a good place to eat for any occasion! From sodas/teas/lemoades/mixed drinks, to appetizers anyone would love, to soups and salads, wraps or bowls, pastas and burgers. There is something everyone will love!

Delicious dairy free ice cream. Honestly the best I've had. I wasn't expecting it to taste so good. I'll definitely be going back. They don't have many dairy free options but I was hapoy to see it wasmt the typical just vanilla option most ice cream parlors offer. They have some seats inside as well as a couple tables outside to eat at. Please ty of choices, they even have gluten free Waffle cones on certain days of the week. My daughter got a shake made with dairy free ice cream and dairy free milk and it was DELICIOUS! The people in our group that ate dairy also loved their ice cream. So they just have incredible ice cream overall. Good prices as well. Be sure to check this place out!!

Fun experience; great food options. Even had gluten free for one person in our party.

We usually go for a late lunch, service is pretty good, usually only 1 person working at that time. They have a decent gluten free selection, INCLUDING THE FRENCH FRIES! The only complaint I have is that everything is sticky, the tables, menus, floors and seats half the time very sticky.

Great food! I'm gluten free and they have a GF menu.

This "meh" experience began when I walked in the door, yesterday. The host was seating another party, and while I was waiting for him to return to the host station, I watched a group of 4 men enter in the side door and go sit in the main dining room at the only table for 7 that was open. I was hyper aware because I was part of a party of seven. When the host returned, he looked out at the dining room and said he could offer me a high top table at the back by the bar, or else it would be an hour wait. I pointed out that the party of four had just gone and sat down, and that I was here first. He looked at me blankly and repeated that he had a high top available. We took the high top, which we all came to regret. The high top table was by a huge window with glaring diffused sunlight streaming in. Those of us facing the window tried to use our menus to shade us so we could see the rest of our group. It didnt work, was painful, and we all ended up with headaches. But wait, there's more! The server took our order, which we placed as soon as we got our drinks because we know how slow the kitchen is at apparently all Mellow Mushroom locations. I ordered a side salad that arrived first, and we were given some plates and 5 napkins for a table of 7 people, but no silverware. 15 minutes later, I still had no silverware. I could see silverware rolled up behind the bar, and there was a dishwasher rack of silverware on the table behind us, that, in addition to adding to the classy ambience, was a constant reminder of what we didn't have. When the entrees began arriving, a food runner brought a Cobb salad for another of our party. I looked her right in the eyes and said, "We need silverware." She looked at me blankly, because apparently she got the same training as the host, and then walked away without saying a word! After another 10 minutes of not being able to flag anyone down, our server returned and, to her credit, brought silverware very quickly at that point. But wait, there's more! The pizzas arrived, but no one had ordered the Merry Prankster that a different food runner was holding along with a Karma. It should have been 2 Kosmic Karmas, instead. Before I could say I'd just eat that instead (because, you'll recall they're slow in the kitchen at MMs), she spirited it away. Things that could have happened at that point, but didn't include: the runner could have informed the kitchen of the error, or informed our server, but she did not. Perhaps they were all distracteded and eating a Merry Prankster pizza in the back. I wouldn't know, I never saw them again. I guess the prank was on me. Note to staff, if you bring the food, you aren't done until you've brought silverware and you've let someone now when the order wasn't right! Also, our server could have stopped by to see if our order was complete, or how our food was. She did not. Finally, after more than 10 minutes, I got up and found her. She didn't know about the lack of a Kosmic Karma. She did apologize and she came back 5 minutes later to let me know it was being made. It did finally come, long after we were boxing our leftovers and asking for the check, and still squinting into the core of the sun. To her credit, she brought a box along with it, and she easily split our check 6 ways without batting an eye. She was very nice, but I still probably over-tipped at 22 percent given all the other issues. Now, you might wonder if a manager would come apologize, or if one Kosmic Karma would be comped off the bill. The answer is no. And, we were on the way home from a weekend youth event, with hours left to drive, so I just didn't have the wherewithal to ask for the manager myself, or wait any longer. As we left, we saw the party of 4 who had taken the table for 7, also getting up to leave. I hope they had a better experience. Even after a bad experience last year, we stopped here because they can make a good gluten-free pizza without cross-contamination of wheat. And, because Chik-fil-A is closed on Sundays. I guess the only Karma we had was bad karma.

Such a wonderful find! The gals working here are so friendly and welcoming, they have delicious crepes and even offer a gluten dairy free version which is so nice! The coffee is also amazing and the best we have had in the area. Will definitely be making this a normal stop for coffee and crepes when in town.

They have a ton of options, including Gluten Free. I prefer this one over the one in Forest. Both are good, but having a place to sit down without being outside in the weather, is so nice! This place reminds me of the mom and pop ice cream shops, I grew up with. Totes adorbs!

My friend and I had a great brunch here, with delicious food, friendly service, and a lovely atmosphere. The menu has good gluten free options, so my friend ate well, and I ate my cheesy grits and bacon egg and cheddar sandwich just as well. I highly recommend this place!

I ordered bowls for my family first of all we picked them up and the allergy bowls were not separated in the bags. We ordered 4 bowls and 2 of them were allergy bowls that were gluten allergies. They ran out of gluten free granola and did not communicate whatsoever that they were. It took going back into the store to ask if we could have gluten free granola for the worker to say it. It’s not that hard to call my number on the app or tell use when we first picked up the bowls. The worker was not apologetic and was not very polite. The quality of some of the bowls were not made well with barely any toppings. Overall the experience that this location was disappointing.
