Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots with Outdoor Seating to Enjoy in Surrey

I had SOME expectations when coming here for a date night with my husband. Extremely disappointing. We sat down near the bar, and quickly realized how suffocating the area was. Our waiter, who didn't introduce himself, turned it on just after we asked why the air was so dense. The waiter, who never introduced himself by the way, offered no timely service. We had longbreaks between drinks appetizers and main course. He was standing just near the bar so he could see We had empty glasses and plates, but there was lack of interest. Then came time to order the main course and I was asked which sauces I'd like with my fries. I chose truffle and it cost me extra without me knowing I was purchasing some additions. Appetizers, we got the fritters which was pretty good! But the gluten burger was just mediocre. When it came to the bill, the waiter pressurized us to stop eating and make the payment. I have seen this before in other restaurants but waiters are very careful when disrupting a meal to get a payment thru. I dont recommend this place simply because the owner doesn't seem to be around so the waiter seems to think he doesn't need to do his job. There was one female waiter as well(dont know her namw), but just to be clear she was the only good thing about this restaurant. She was kind, responsive, and showed some interest. If this place stays afloat it's due to the appetizers and the nice young lady who picked up the slack.

I have to this place a few times over the past few weeks for business meetings. I was so impressed I took my wife for dinner tonight. Again great food and service. My wife has gluten allergies so we had the gluten friendly crust. The best gluten friendly pizza around.

Mike Lapenna

Called ahead to make sure they had gluten free crust. You can't tell it's gf compared to wheat. Tastes the same! Unfortunately one olive in my pizza still had a pit. Unexpected crunch. Otherwise the food was tasty. The salad had these really nice greens. It wasn't busy today or any of my previous visits. There is a patio on the side of you want to sit outside. I hope they hang in there.

Great restaurant! Servers and hosts are all very friendly, kind and welcoming. Food was great and the Zero proof beverages were refreshing with a nice decoration :) They have variety of entrees as well, my favorite was definitely the Avocado dip which was sooo flavorful!!! They have many main dish options, vegetarian and vegan. I believe they have gluten free options as well which is awesome! The place itself was beautiful, really cozy but also fancy. I will definitely come back to eat here, loved my visit! Thank you 🤎

I booked Hugo’s catering for an event and got a lot of positive feedback from my guests. The taco buffet had a good selection of fillings and toppings, the portions were good and the food tasted fresh. Hugo’s offers dairy free, gluten free and vegetarian options, so everyone’s dietary needs were considered. The delivery was on time and everything was warm and ready to eat. I also added a margarita kit and churros for dessert- both were a hit. I would recommend for your event!

Had my first visit to Hawthorne’s Beer Market, and it certainly won’t be my last! This spot has an awesome local pub vibe, with a welcoming atmosphere and exceptionally friendly service. The staff truly go above and beyond to make you feel at home. As someone who eats gluten-free, I was blown away by their amazing GF pizza—perfectly crispy, flavorful, and loaded with quality toppings. Plus, they offer a great selection of gluten-free options, which is a huge win. Looking forward to coming back and enjoy the patio this summer! If you’re looking for a laid-back, welcoming pub with great food and drinks, Hawthorne’s is a must-visit.

Had an amazing experience at Earls Grandview on Thursday night! Our server, Hayley, was fantastic—attentive and friendly. Austin, the guest experience manager on duty, went above and beyond by comping two desserts when they found out we were celebrating something. The food was incredible—steak frites were better than The Keg, and the sushi tacos and pizzas were delicious. The new plant based burger (perfect for my vegan husband) was much better than the processed impossible burger they used to have. (Good job on the switch Earls!!!). They also had great gluten-aware options, which was perfect for my daughter who was recently diagnosed with gluten intolerance, and myself who has a GF prefercence. The mocktails were refreshing and creative and the prosecco was delicious. Outstanding service and food—we’ll definitely be back!

Angela Fish

It was really fun to find a great breakfast place on our vacation where our entire family could enjoy a nice selection, including many gluten-free options. The food was quite delicious and the quality was excellent!!! We came back the next day because we loved the experience so much. The restaurant was very clean and charming, too. If we're ever back in the area, we will definitely be back for some more tasty food!

They take real care if you are celiac, I often have gluten free sandwiches there. Been going for years!

Nevin Shoker

My family and I had a great experience. With the exception of root beer, there was something on the menu for all of us. A lot of gluten free options as well as Vegan and plant based. Good healthy and delicious options as well. And then there was the burgers that were very satisfying. Really nice restaurant. Option of sitting where it's quiet or in the lounge where there's a great social vibe going on.

Victoria

I have been at this location many times, and has always been a positive experience. I just ordered the Chicken Santa Fe Salad, and I left a note mentioning my dietary restrictions as a Celiac. I really appreciate the staff member who took the time to write a hand written message letting me know that they got my note about being Celiac, and confirmed that the tortilla strips on the top were gluten free! It probably took little time, but made me feel a lot more confident enjoying my meal. And of course, the salad was a 10/10!!!

More Memorable Events

Lots of selection and variety. I selected a gluten free option and it was different for sure. Not as soft as regular crepes but I guess that is to be expected from alternative grains. The fruit that accompanied it was fresh, sweet and we'll presented. Portions are generous and service was fast. Will definitely return

Salt Wellness

Best soups and oat bar I have had in a cafe. I really enjoy wholesome soups filled with veges and bars that aren’t too sweet and nutrient dense and this place does just that. Everything is homemade or made to order. They also offer various gluten free options. This cafe offers nutritious meals and snacks that are very tasty . Highly recommend.

Raman Sandhu

Great Food and great customer service . Great gluten free options.

K Ma

Have dined in as well as ordered take out. Great customer service and attention to detail. Be aware white spot stops breakfast at 10am! So if you enjoy their breakfast as much as I dont be late! They have gluten free options as well as vegetarian. Parking lot is spacious and free. Restarant is on ground level and only has one level. Looks handicapped accessible. Child friendly and have a nice child meanu. A bit pricey, but the quality of the food is definitely better than other fast food restarants!

Chris Neufeld

Many gluten free options and the manager paid special attention to us to be sure I could eat safely as a celiac. Highly recommend

RC

I have celiac disease so I have a gluten free diet. On the menu Nachos are listed as gluten free. Thank goodness I asked if they were 1. Deep fries and 2. In a shared gluten deep fryer. I was told yes they were but are gluten free. BUT NO they are not gluten free because they are cross contaminated. I wish restaurants knew how serious celiac disease is. Like a peanut allergy there are effects from eating gluten. Education needed for staff and managers.

A D

We had a lovely meal here. We have celiacs in the family. The chef kindly came and talked us through what precautions they take and suggested dishes. Really good Thai food.

I'm not exaggerating when I say this is the best coffee I've ever had. I usually get the oat milk latte but always have to try the seasonal and special drinks she makes all by hand. Not that SB was ever amazing but I literally can't even drink it anymore, I'm too spoiled with this coffee- with the added bonus of supporting a small local business. And don't get me started on the peanut butter cookie sandwich, wow. Lots of vegan options and even some gluten free ones as well. They're friendly to top it off. If you've been thinking of trying Everbean, don't hesitate!

John Truong

Hostess who took my order was super nice and attentive to my take out order which had a Gluten Allergy. The restaurant bagged the order to avoid cross contamination. Thank you!

Judith

Gluten free options...!

Tamara Powell

They have good service, and gluten free options and a separate fryer for GF fries!! The sangria and burgers were on point and I don’t feel sick afterwards (which is rare after eating out). Will definitely return! Good date spot.

Leigh Miller

Decent gluten free burger and other options. Can be loud. Service was good and fairly quick.

M

The only gluten free burger is a veggie burger which tasted gross. I was misled by reviews saying there are multiple gluten free options. Please add gluten free burger meat to your menu or don't advertise gluten free burgers. A veggie burger is just not the same!

Andrea Schartner

The food was great and the recommendations from our server were fantastic. Thank you Erin for being so careful about my gluten allergy! And thank you so much to the kitchen for taking every precaution when preparing my meal. It is so stressful eating out because of the severity of my allergy, but Erin took the time to double check with the kitchen on multiple items to make sure her recommendations were safe for me. This is now my go-to restaurant when I am in town. Thank you!

Luke Mahaney

Great coffee, gluten free substitutions available kn their breakfast sandwiches.

Tami Weir

Service was fabulous and we really appreciated the amount of gluten friendly options as well as the ability to order a half size pasta. I must say the have the best nachos ever.

Sydney Drapkin

The entire meal, all my friend and I could say were expletives around every bite. We couldn't believe how incredible the food was. By far the best Mexican food I've ever had in Vancouver!!! Our server (possibly the owner?) was incredibly nice, warm, and inviting—and you could tell she was really proud of the place. Portions were great and the pricing was so reasonable! The Al Pastor tacos were incredible with amazing flavour! The Carnitas taco was also really good and would order again, but the Al Pastor totally stole the show. Amazing chicken enchiladas with beans and rice. Also tried Pupusas for the first time and they were also incredible!! Also I'm celiac and have to be strict gluten free, and had no concerns at this restaurant. Already planning when I can go back

Maya Grant

Gabby was an amazing server! Extremely nice and attentive despite it being a very busy Friday night. She had great energy, didn’t make us feel rushed and was just lovely! We were extremely impressed with Gabby’s service! We always come for the Greek food because it is delicious and great portions! Our only complaint is that some gluten free options like gluten free pizza would be really appreciated!

Alex Odribege

Always a great experience. General Manager SJ is lovely, and the food is delicious! Great gluten free options, as well.

Justin Malhi

We went here 2 weeks ago and it was great! The gluten free chicken burger and fries are top tier and our waitress was very helpful accommodating our needs. My girlfriend’s chicken pasta came out without chicken and they were very quick to make a whole new pasta for her free or charge (they even threw in an extra chicken breast cooked to perfection) and also since they felt bad they gave us free dessert! It was pretty awesome! Even if they made a mistake, they were quick to make things better.

Justin Malhi

Super busy, lot of gluten free options and the food was pretty solid

Zo Wade

This is the best BP location for food quality and the service is much better than the other locations. They add alot of toppings and don't skimp on the cheese with their pizzas. The speed was quick even if it's busy and we noticed they were thoroughly cleaning each table for the next customer. Some of the best dishes other than the delicious pizza is the artichoke spinach dip, the nachos for appetizers. For sandwiches the Boston brute and if you can handle some spice order the Memphis Kickin Chicken Sandwich. A person we were dining with had a gluten allergy and they ordered their pizza with cauliflower crust and said it was really good. It is a great place for children and families to dine.

Teagan McGuire

We came here for a birthday a few weeks ago and had a very disappointing experience at a restaurant we usually expect good things from. The restaurant was freezing and we were sat in the corner of an otherwise empty restaurant by the windows, and our server would not let us move close to the fireplace. The server was very inattentive and felt like he didn’t want to be there. After stressing that there was a gluten allergy at the table and asking the server twice to check the salad dressing ingredients, one member of the party ended up sick after the meal due to the server disregarding the allergy. Food was not to their usual standards and was overdone. Very disappointing experience for all of us. Will still go back as we know the potential this place has, but still a poor experience nonetheless. Not recommended for those with allergies. EDIT : Response from the owner “Thank your nice reviews You need to write down what the reality is and not turn your dissatisfactions into other things” I wish I knew what you were trying to say here. The “reality” is that your server disregarded that someone at the table had Celiac disease, and made that person incredibly sick for days afterwards. If you think that I am “turning my dissatisfactions into other things” perhaps read up on this life threatening disease and inform your staff on how to handle allergies better. If this is how you handle a review to your restaurant, one in which I stated that we will still be coming back, perhaps the restaurant industry really isn’t for you.

Casual dining patio beside the sea side walkway. It's for sale. Food was decent. Gluten free cod was not battered. I would not order it again.

Food and atmosphere were fine; standard for White Spot. Service was where they really fell off. I asked if I could order from the kids' menu as I'm a bariatric patient and can't eat full sized servings. The server didn't seem sure if he could do that (we got the sense he was new to working at this restaurant), so he got his manager. When I asked her if I could do this, explaining that other White Spots allowed me to do this without batting an eye, she came back with, "Which ones?" with very obvious (and very unnecessary) doubt in her voice. I quickly listed off the no fewer than four or five locations that have no issue with me doing this. She said that she'd let me do this, "just this once," and then left. I really don't appreciate this kind of "service". I'm basically explaining that I have a medical condition that prevents me from eating full sized servings and asked for very reasonable and simple accommodations to be made for me. If I were ordering this to go, there would be *zero* conversation about this. If I said I was allergic to hazelnuts and ordered a dessert with hazelnuts put on top of it, the kitchen would remove the hazelnuts without second thought. If I said I was Celiac, the kitchen would make sure there would be no cross contamination in preparing my food without second thought. This really isn't all that different so why do I get all this attitude? Add to that, they quite clearly wanted our table to leave after a point by the way they would very pointedly and repeatedly ask if there was anything else we needed or wanted. There were no parties waiting to be seated at the host station, there were no fewer than a half dozen available four tops in our section alone. So yeah, I definitely won't be making any active steps to return to this White Spot location. I'll continue to go to the other locations, like the North Road location in Burnaby, where they actually value my patronage.

Where do I even start. I haven't had such good Indian food in so long. I tried so many Indian restaurants in Vancouver but nothing has come close to real Indian street food. But I literally felt like I was in Bombay/Delhi eating the street food. The restaurant has great ambience and liveliness. The service was super solid, the server was so good and genuine and had a lot of knowledge. Being super busy, she was able to remember all the orders. The owner of the restaurant came to to check on us and the server as well multiple times. And the best part, they include vegan and gluten free options and the servers will tell you about those so it's very allergy friendly. I will definitely be going back and taking my friends and family. Binyami, vada pav and bhel puri ate a must try.

Caroline Simnitt

Delicious, quick, not greasy. 6 of us ate and each of us loved our food/drink. One person is celiac and the staff was knowledgeable and accommodating.

Malwinder Singh

Before Boston Pizza, I had no idea that a Gluten-free Pizza or Pasta could be that good. I went inside just browsing and checking, in the Surrey's Scott road area, restaurant by restaurant, asking if they have Gluten Free options in their menu. I didn't find many options till I landed in Boston Pizza. It was second time when I tried Boston Pizza and it was fun. The service was amazing. We were given ample amount of time to decide our order. Regular checks were kept to make sure that we liked the quality of the food. Our server was very courteous, we really enjoyed our meal and I am definitely visiting again, not just for the food, but for the experience too. Thank you for your hospitality.

catherine heith

Gluten free options! No menu but very helpful and knowledgeable. Can substitute and make modifications such as fake to real crab, steamed yam instead of tempura. Spice rolls didn’t have crunchy tempura so is gf. Just such a great experience as many are confused or annoyed about questions and requests but they were patient, knowledgeable and helpful. The sushi was delicious!

skygazer T

Love their food. They have gluten-free options as well. Also, love their decor. The staff is friendly and has a positive environment and good people. Everything on their menu is mouthwatering 👌

My wife and I got married in August of 2019 and used Ritz for our catering. Throughout the process we had good open communication throughout the process, working with us both from the beginning with a tasting, and throughout as we had guests confirm & inform us of their dietary needs. Ritz was able to accommodate vegans, gluten free options, and several allergies without problem, all while catering the event at a private residence for the backyard. On the day they arrived on time to begin their set up, working with our other vendors in getting things ready - with a very nice clean table set up for our guests and were quick to address any issues (we had an unexpected guests and a impromptu table change, and they were quick to adjust and reset spots), as well as work with us as our timeline inevitably got pushed back. The food was very good, with lots of options for everyone to choose from, and plenty for our guests to have seconds -- and in some cases thirds. Our vegan guests said it was the best vegan offering they had ever had at a wedding. After the dinner was complete they served dessert and drinks -- again well received by our guests -- and were cleaned up and out of the house on time. Throughout the night they had used my in-laws kitchen for preparing food, and once they had left my mother in law came out to tell me that the kitchen was spotless and there was no further cleaning required. Overall we were very happy with the service we received from Ritz and would happily work with them again in the future

Cait Street

Excellent food, great service, and very good with dietary restrictions. My parents are celiac, and our waitress and the kitchen took excellent care of them. There are plenty of gluten free options and also desserts! Everything tasted great. Honestly, such a good dining out experience. Will definitely go back.

Gurp Aujla

I was in today and I was impressed with the service. The owner comes out the make sure everything is to our standards. I have a gluten allergy and they went above and beyond to make me gluten free roti! What really impressed me was the wine! I will support this business as the genuine care is truly above and beyond

Vancouver Maid Service

Their dedication to making sure that my celiac guest was able safely enjoy their order has endeared them to me and mine forever.

Danielle Krasner

Visited the restaurant while in town for a hockey tournament. We were nervous as our little one has multiple food allergies and it is always hard to find good alternatives. The manager and chef went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and personally made the food and brought it to the table. The meals were delicious and our allergy kiddo loved the gluten free margherita pizza! We ate here 2 nights in a row and enjoyed every minute.

Angelique Bergheim

Ordered gluten-free noodles. I specified to the workers that I was gluten and soy intolerant. Got home and started eating the food just to realize that they were gluten based noodles.I had a horrible reaction and tried reaching out but nobody got back to me. Do not recommend.
