We got the tempura, some sushi, swordfish, bruschetta! Everything was unreal. The cocktails and mocktails were very well made too! Fully Gluten Free restaurant which was amazing for celiacs! Highly recommend.

Divine Blinds

Best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had! Price was good too. 10/10

James H

Thank you SO MUCH for all the gluten free options. Amazing service. Place could do a masterclass on poached eggs (my grandmother would have been very impressed)

Paul Roney

Hands down, one of the best REAL gluten free places in Calgary.

Just had an amazing experience at Selia Bar and had to share! The entire place is 100% gluten free, which was such a relief — no need to worry about cross-contamination at all. It’s so refreshing to be able to choose anything from the menu without second-guessing or stressing. There were so many delicious options to pick from, and everything we tried was fantastic. Our server, Erick, was absolutely wonderful — friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience even better with his thoughtful service. If you’re looking for a safe and genuinely enjoyable place to eat out, I highly recommend Selia Bar. I left feeling full, happy, and totally at ease.

Monica Lantz

Cannot recommend more! It was safe for celiacs and even made a carnivore say he could become vegetarian. Really beautiful and tasty food! The staff is so polite and kind.

Greg Widmeyer

Best gluten free pizza I've ever had!

Jadyn Brown

Love this place! They have so many vegan,vegetarian and gluten free options it makes it easy for anyone to eat here

Katie Chalifoux

An okay diner it feels kinda tight and is loud but the fact it's gluten friendly is a big plus and on top of that the food tastes absolutely amazing, which is hard without gluten. Coffee was not fun and it was super busy. Overall it's a cute place every once in awhile, though I don't think you'd want to make it a regular spot.

Bret Collins

Fantastic pizza from the spruce meadows stand today. Had the gluten free pizza which was amazing! Also the staff working are very personable and friendly. Definitely will be continuing to get my gluten free pizza from them

Jen W.

The food is incredible! The chicken crack and cauliflower is the best combination, popcorn chicken and fried cauliflower. If you’re gluten free and haven’t been here, you need to go. I come here with people who can eat gluten all the time and they also love it.

Jennifer Heard

Absolutely love Communitea Cafe in Canmore! The vibe is warm and welcoming, the food is fresh and flavourful, and there are tons of clearly marked gluten-free and vegan options. As someone with celiac disease, I felt completely safe eating here. Great service, amazing teas, and a beautiful space. Highly recommend!

I’m so disappointed to write this, but as a artisanal pizza/flatbread chaser - this flatbread truly disappointed me. Especially for the price. The fig & bison barely had any cheese on it, with two small slices missing the toppings. $60 with the gluten free cost added, did not feed two of us. We’re small people, with not very big appetites, but when you take away an inch of the crust from being almost burnt, the “medium” flatbread is now a small. Mediocre taste at best, but maybe if there were more toppings on it… upsetting for a first impression.

Larry Lowe

Great food, all gluten free in a cool atmosphere.

Alex Thompson

We loved this place. Best burger I’ve had in a very long time (bison burger), plus the waiter was first class. They catered really well for my coeliac wife and the beers they had from the 3 Bears local brewery were excellent too.

Eric Schultz

The Next Act is the quintessential third place. The staff is always welcoming and make you feel like you're at friend's place, not a restaurant. And their gluten free fish and chips is a real treat for those of us with Celiac 🥰

Sergio Pintore

Food was amazing, staff was great, and what a view! My wife is celiac and she was so happy about the GF options! If you’re traveling to the Rockies, you can’t miss this place! 🍔🍟🥗

Joelle

Yum! The double cheeseburger & fries were delicious. I got the gluten-free bun, which was soft and fluffy 😇 I am highly sensitive to gluten cross contamination and get sick from the smallest exposure. I was fine, felt great after with no symptoms. The young person who took my order was kind and knew exactly what to say to ease my nerves around potential cross contamination. If you need a big and filling burger that is grilled to perfection, then make this place your next stop xo

What a delightful surprise to find an incredible vegan meal in the mountains of Alberta. My dining partner said this was the best meall they’ve ever eaten out, and I can see why. Having so many vegan and gluten-free options. That were a part of the menu, not an afterthought was delightful! The way all restaurants should be. We shared the falafel appetizer which got eaten so quickly. I didn’t get a picture. 😅 The two main dishes we had, shown in photos, we are both incredible, especially the gratine dish. Fantastic, homemade vegan cheese. The decaf coffee was great with an almond milk option. And the gluten-free, vegan tart for dessert was to die for. The staff was knowledgeable about ingredients in their dishes, and unlike some fancy restaurants, we’re quite happy to remove or add ingredients to meet dietary needs. What a beautiful dining experience. We ate outside in the patio near the street, and it was relatively quiet and a great way to enjoy the town.

Jake Whitney

Absolutely amazing food and the most friendly, caring and outgoing server we ever have had at a restaurant. Precious was so fun and very thoughtful when tailoring food recommendations for my girlfriend who has Celiacs. The food blew our minds! (Crispy chicken sandwich, mozzy sticks and fried Oreos). Thank you to the ownership of this place for making all food options gluten free and also you have an amazing staff member there!! Truly a memory never to be forgotten

Lucy P

Worst meal I’ve had in a long time. Gluten free poutine was inedible. Felt like the fries had been sitting all day. They were grease upon grease.

Rob

We had breakfast here and came back the next day for again breakfast and lunch take out. Pancakes delicious!! They have separate glutenfree menu, all options i had where amazing. Kind service.

Jennifer Bauer

The fish was fantastic. My husband and I both ordered the haddock, his gluten-free and mine not. I tasted both and can confirm that the gluten-free version is very close to the gluten version. The pieces were large (I couldn't finish mine). The fries and rings were both great. The servers had a miscommunication about who was dealing with our table, but once they realised the mistake the service was as quick as you'd expect in any restaurant. Will definitely be back.

Aaron Kelemen

Have been here a couple of times. It’s very good and great for celiac friendly gluten-free options!

Janice Palmer

I had a gluten free pizza from Spiros delivered last night. I have to say it was the best GF crust I have ever had. Thank you!

Makenna Short

Went for the first time this weekend and we love it! Fantastic Gluten Free options and they took my allergy very seriously. Super yummy food and the staff were amazing and lovely and kind 💕

Susan Haddock

Today was my first experience at PF Changs and it did not disappoint! They had a great selection of Gluten Free options, I was served a complimentary soup to enjoy and both the manger and me server were very nice. Will be back!

chavy dworkind

All the arepas can be made gluten free. A bit too greasy but tasty and good quick service.

Lydia Van Thiel

Gluten free crepe. ! Delicious.

PJ Swan

We were celebrating an 80th birthday. Jeremy was very accommodating with our reservation and we were able to bring in a gluten free cupcake for the bday girl. There was only 3 of us and all our meals were absolutely delicious. However, our server Cailie was extremely inattentive. We had trouble to get just a water. She never offered any of us another wine, tea/coffee or dessert - even when she brought out the single cupcake we had brought in. Upselling is somewhat expected as a customer, but we certainly didn’t have to worry about that! Anyway, I would go again because it wasn’t my first time and I know the food is great and service is usually awesome as well. Tonight was just a big disappointment being I picked it myself for this special event.

emily bond

Beautiful souls who care for us celiacs even through last minute deliveries, For whomever was on staff tonight, I hope both sides of all your pillows are cold tonight <3

Stephanie

The service was decent and the atmosphere is great, but the pizza has definitely changed. It was disappointing to learn that the gluten free crust is different. The crust is more crunchy and doesn’t taste as nice; the previous option was soft and could hardly tell it was gluten free. It also seems they are very inconsistent with topping amounts. Ordered the exact same pizza on the regular crust as well and it had about half the toppings as the gluten free one.

Amy C

Good range of items that could be made gluten free. I had the JBC burger with GF bun. It took a long time to arrive and I was told it was because the GF fryer took longer than the normal one. The meal was really tasty but unfortunately was only just warm. I ate it because it already waited nearly half an hour for it.

Jessica Shifrin

A staple every time I go to Calgary. As a celiac I feel so safe here, staff always take time to make sure I understand what I can/cannot eat. I would say about 80 percent of the menu can be made gluten free including the fried chicken. It’s great to be able to share with friends and not sacrifice taste. Could not recommend more.

Lisa Gray

Great Gluten Free burger! Bun didnt fall apart. It was so good! Susan was helpful and very friendly!

Courtney Clark

Rob gave us excellent service and the food was to die for. My mom and I both have celiac and the strawberry French toast was fire. They were accommodating and fast!

Lucy P

Lots of gluten free options. The first time I have had Benedict and crepes since being diagnosed celiac and I’m a happy camper!

Larisa McIntyre

Best gluten free and vegan sushi, they are very fast and accommodating. Highly recommend wholelifego it’s amazing! Thank you WholeLifeGo!

Alex M

Great place to go whether it is brunch with your mom, date night, game time, business lunch, or family meal. Highly recommend it. The food is delicious. Tried the new teriyaki salmon bowl tonight. Partner loves the gluten free fish and chips. Very well managed. Staff, food, and atmosphere are always 🎯⭐️. Thanks!

Ilse Buma

nice place. reasonable prices and some great gluten free options.

jody s

Truly amazing meal. Fresh, great taste, excellent service, and fantastic drinks. My mom is celiac and enjoyed the risotto and I had the bison meatball pasta. You will not be dissapointed with the flavor and fresh products.

Eli Krahulec

Great little burger Shack. Flavor is excellent, and gluten free options are good. The beef is fresh, but patties are thin. Atmosphere gets a 4 star only because it's small, limited seating.

Donna Jenson

Against All Grain Benny was by far the best eggs benedict I’ve ever had. Got the spicy hollandaise and it was just the right mild spice. The Brussel sprouts were sweet, carmelized and pure perfection. Vegan and gluten free which was perfect. I will be back to try other vegan GF items.

Janine Young

Great food, excellent outdoor seating! Ate here twice during our stay-excellent gluten free options.

Marina Austin

Excellent experience. Excellent food. Really great time. Very knowledgeable about gluten free options.

Jordan

Went with my wife who is celiac. Lots of GF options on the menu and they have a dedicated fryer. They were also very knowledgeable about celiac. Will eat there again.

K M

At first glance this place wasn't what I was expecting. The cook was super friendly and welcoming. The gluten free chicken was SO GOOD!! I'd definitely have it again. The dynamite roll was ok, the gf breaded shrimps were the star of that dish and the rest were just supporting actors.. thanks

Zach & Rebecca Wiebe (Zach&Rebecca)

They are not careful when it comes to correctly labeling and preparing for dietary needs. I have Celiacs Disease and due to them giving me a regular bagel with the written label of a "gluten free" I'm now experiencing agonizing symptoms. Luckily I won't die, but if you have any allergies DO NOT GO TO THIS REMEDY. Could you imagine if it was a nut allergy?! Do better.

Celina R.

Love their strawberry matcha, smoothies, and peanut butter balls! Lots of gluten free baked goods available as well.

Andrew Braun

Tons of gluten free options and very tasty with lots of yummy flavors. Have desserts too and their house made sauce is great.
