Top 42 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots to Delight in Bedford

Kandy Evans

Amazing food, massive gluten free menu.

Louise Breden

The service was excellent. They had a gluten free menu, or they could change it to gluten free.

Ian McPherson

Aysh delivered great service and the gluten free pizzas are a huge improvement and made my wife’s birthday- thankyou

Truly awful experience, came away feeling traumatised. I have coeliac and also can't eat dairy, my daughter is the same. I kept asking what would be safe to eat and got conflicting responses from each server. No idea why we had 3 different servers. This lead me to feel very concerned. One server called the manager, who I thought knew what she was doing. She swapped things around and said our meal was now safely vegan and gluten free. When my daughter and I had consumed nearly all the savory pancake, yet a different server came to the table and said we had been eating dairy, as that the feta used was the wrong one and that we should seek medical attention. Thank goodness someone told us, but was an awful experience.

It was our first time as a family for my sons 18th birthday. I was so impressed with the choice and the fact there was a gluten free menu too. The staff were super friendly and answered any questions we had as newbies! They also gave us guidance on what to order according to our tastes - excellent attention to detail regarding service. The food was amazing...I ate the fat on my steak!!! I NEVER eat the fat but somehow every bite was delicious! I'm also happy with the cost. We'd budgetted for an expensive meal, it was a special occasion but this came under budget so I was even happier

Always love to go to this Harvester. The staff are always super friendly, Martessa served us on this occasion and was really patient and helpful with the menu as my Coeliac daughter was with us. The allergen menu only tends to focus on veggie and vegan now so Martessa helped us with what we could and couldn't order. I would recommend avoiding fried foods (including chips) but my daughter says the mash is delicious. I had a coupon too and Martessa was more than happy to help me with it when it came to pay.

Great coffee and paninis. I’ve been here countless times and their consistency has stood the rest of time to becoming a well established and loved cafe in Bedford! I love the cosy interior and look forward to a hot chocolate in the cold winter months ahead. They have gluten free and vegan/plant-based options available.

Thank you for the lovely food, excellent service and generous spirit. Gluten free requirements fully understood.

Sarah Mielnik

Good vegan & gluten free pizzas

Bryce Crossland

Pizza was fantastic, my partner got gluten free and it was by far the best gluten free pizza base she’s ever had, the texture of the base was spot on, it was almost identical to my regular pizza. Will definitely be going back. Really good price, £23 for two pizzas

Leah Greenhill

Always a lovely meal with no worries at all about cross contamination.

Jennie Desmond

Lovely coffee and fabulous Clementine and chocolate gluten free cake.

Andy Stanley

Went early on a Saturday evening the food was fresh & tasty and a great selection of meats and vegetables. One of the party was celiac and they went through all the available food options with him and prepared his carvey plate fresh in the kitchen to ensure there was no contamination. Great service highly recommend.

My sister and I stopped by today. Despite being super busy the staff were really accommodating to find us a suitable table for us and my two small dogs. This is a super friendly dog café, today we only had scones and tea but I've eaten lunch on a few occasions and the menu is great for those with dietary requirements too so I know I can confidentially bring my Coeliac daughter here.

Italian food at it's best! We ordered the seafood, Salmon Linguini and a very good bottle of house red which was all beautify cooked and presented. Only negative was an unclear description of what pasta meals were dairy and gluten free but a minor point on a great dining experience.

Clare Weston

A must go to. Excellent food - the wings are next level delicious, and their signature fries are mouth wateringly good. Lots of gluten free and vegan options, the restaurant has clearly tried to be thoughtful about people's dietary requirements. The restaurant design is beautiful and a fun atmosphere. The staff are warm and friendly. I strongly recommend!

Nick Kealy

Really tasty food, lovely coffee in a nice atmosphere! My wife loved the gluten free offerings also!

Mike Sorbo

A small and cosy Thai restaurant in a central location with nearby parking. Very welcoming and friendly staff. The menu caters to all sorts of different tastes with a wide variety of meats, vegetarian and gluten free options. The tamarind duck with coconut rice and pad Thai in particular were excellent 10/10 dishes. This was my first time at this restaurant and I’ll certainly be going back, the food was amazing and everyone in my party agreed! Due to the small size of the restaurant I’d recommend booking in advance, and checking out their menu online.

Mike Sorbo

Ate here for lunch for the first time recently and was pleasantly surprised. The food was really tasty and priced very reasonably. Friendly, welcoming staff will greet you as you arrive and there’s something on the menu for everyone as they have vegan and gluten options free too. I’d definitely go again!

Catherine

Excellent menu and brilliant gluten free selection. Ideal for vegetarians too. The food was extremely tasty and when they give it 3 chillis for spice - assume it's going to be very hot. Jasmine tea was an excellent accompaniment and the sticky toffee pudding was lovely and gluten free. Parking across the road in College car park. Free for blue badge holders. Staff helpful and friendly. Toilets clean and modern. If you're in a wheelchair then the toilets would be too narrow to transfer and there are 2 large steps to reach them. Would definitely eat here again.

Ralph Henderson

Helpful waiting staff. Quick and efficient service. Separate menu for gluten free with variety of options.

Carolyn Ingledew

amazing food, and gluten free options

What a gem! Wonderful food and atmosphere to celebrate a birthday, lovely menu choices and very accommodating for a gluten free and cheese free customer. Can't wait to return (waitress I think her name was lilly was brilliant!!)

Very helpful and friendly staff, food was great. The best carbonara I've had in years, so thank you so much! The number of gluten free options was really helpful for one of our party also. I've included some pictures, but there was more food on both plates. We just got stuck in to the amazing food before thinking "we should take a couple of pictures here" Loved our visit and definitely will be back. Recommended.

Kim Tatham

Loads of gluten free options I had the veggie melt is was amazing definitely will be going back x

The cats were very sweet. The lady taking orders with the black hair and the tattoos was lovely. Our daughter Was presented with a cat cafe book mark when she was seen opening birthday gifts but unfortunately that's where the positives end. The manager I believe, went between being very curt and almost militant in her "instructions" to eavesdropping into conversations between patrons and adding to the conversation where it wasn't welcomed. She is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about the cats and their welfare but at times she made us feel very uncomfortable, we have owned rescue cats ourselves for a long time now and know how to interact with them. This was also after we had read the "manual" provided to us on the cats characters. What really wasn't on was when she informed us very bluntly that we had 5 minutes until we had to leave when it was obviously our child was still eating. I did explain that despite putting in our desert order in plenty of time, there was a delay in it arriving, I guess because it was so busy. She argued with me that we would have to leave because it was end of our time slot? The food was overpriced and not nice at all. My "toastie" was just warmed bread, we received one brownie so hot, the plate burnt my child's finger and one stone cold. When my mother in law commented to say she didn't enjoy the gluten free bread (I did not either) she was quick to retaliate in saying the bread was good and it is what she used at home?! The other owner, which I was informed was the managers daughter looked utterly bored just being there. Very little patron interaction and spent most of our visit glued to her phone. We spent over £50 on food plus the "entrance fee" which seemed a lot for poor food and even poorer customer service for a timed period where the birthday girl was rushed to finish her birthday lunch dessert. I understand cats cost money to keep with food, vet bills and flea/worm treatment but it was simply not worth the money. Unfortunately, we will not be returning. If you do decide to visit, the coffee isn't bad but don't bother with the food. And dont waste your time reading and explaining the rules to your children beforehand because you are not allowed to enter the premises until you've been told about them.

Lovely gluten free pizza

Sarah Mielnik

Went here for lunch and had a lovely experience. The food was delicious, with plenty of options for both gluten-free & vegan diets. The service was friendly and attentive. We'll definitely be back

Leah Greenhill

Always had an amazing meal here, I have coeliac disease, and although Indian food is usually safe for me I've never felt more catered for, staff are wonderfull x

Friendly and helpful staff . Easy to order and pay on the app. Food was hot and tasted good. My daughter is coeliac and enjoyed the pizza and brownie. Young lady who served us was lovely, really friendly and helpful.

I have seen the wineglass restaurant pop up on my open table app quite a bit and was curious about what it offered. Upon further research, I found that they did a gluten free high tea. Well, being barred from gluten by my GP, I was well chuffed to find an advertised high tea that was gluten free. We went and we conquered the high tea! I got the gluten free option while my hubbie got the gluten option. Both were lovely! Gluten free bread was nice and soft, the gf scone was tasty and the macaroons were very flavorful. According to my husband, the gluten option was extremely tasty as well with a chocolate creme profiterole, two tarts and a creme horn. The service was impeccable. Nynke, Kay, Adam, Sharmaine were incredibly attentive and kept the prosecco coming within our time limit. I highly recommend the wineglass at the barns hotel the next time you are wanting to indulge. You will not be disappointed.

Welcoming and friendly. Reasonably priced, I paid £8.10 I think for a gluten free meal deal equivalent that was far better then any shop I have been to that I recall and you get to chat and sit down on a comfortable table/chairs. The gluten free falafel wrap wasn't dry and tasted kind of like a vegan haslet to me, not meaty but texture wise and very satisfying. The sauce was a sweet-ish chilli and it had lettuce in, it was lovely. I got veggie crisps and and a fizzy drink that was just juice based without any sweeteners in as I'm cutting down on sugar, caffeine and chemicals/additives.
