Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots for Outdoor Dining in Milwaukee

Jason Heppler

We loved the food, service, and atmosphere! Visiting from out of town and stopped in for lunch. I ordered a garlic pizza plus green olives with gluten free crust. Best pizza ever, thin crust, amazing flavors, and excellent gluten free food safety precautions. Thank you!

Our server was great and I was happy that they had a gluten free menu . I have celiacs so it was nice to clear up any confusion . They do not have a dedicated fryer if anyone is concerned with cross contamination . Personally I was fine and the food was great . They have these crispy rice coated shrimp and they were excellent ! They also have a selection of soups made with rice noodles that I want to go back and try . Ooo and don't forget your Boba tea !

Every bite and sip was superb along with the service and ambience. We ordered everything gluten free and will be sure to return in the future. Wonderful date night!

I’ve been going here since I went to Marquette years ago and to go back with celiac and be able to eat gluten free sushi is a win. They mark the gluten free items on their menu and even have gf soy sauce.

Awesome gluten free and vegan choices! Fresh juice and smoothies! Everything including the atmosphere was excellent!

Went here on a recommendation from a friend and it was amazing! We got deep dish pizza and gluten free crusted pizza. Both pizzas came to the table pretty quickly. The pizza was loaded with so many toppings it felt heavier than any deep dish pizza I've ever had! Tons of food and drinks for a great price. This is probably my new favorite pizza spot!

went here for brunch! had a latte and egg scramble, waitress was educated on celiac disease and said that the eggs were cooked on a stovetop without gluten (toasted bread, etc). substituted toast for fruit at no cost. i didn’t have any symptoms afterwards!

If you are looking for an incredible dinner experience this is your place. The food is so good from the starters to dessert they make sure all details are taken care of. The service is amazing. The staff is very knowledgeable and does a great job of working with you to find the perfect dish for your enjoyment. The owners are very active and are fantastic. They are concerned with your dining experience and they engage with their patrons and get to know their customers. The pizza is so good and they use Italian imported 00 flour that those with gluten sensitivity can enjoy with no issues. The gluten free pasta is very good and I’m a huge fan of the carbonara. If you haven’t tried this amazing speakeasy with great music and old movies playing in the background to enhance your dining experience you have to get here - make sure you get a reservation before you come.

Love this place! Gluten free and vegan options make this a must go to location!

Staying in a hotel on the next block and stumbled across this place. It was AMAZING! If you’re Gluten Free know that they have GF buns and crackers so most of the menu items can be adjusted. Loved this place. Will definitely be back.

Jacquelin Clark

Appreciate that they have a gluten free brunch menu!!

Lex Lynne

Incredible experience. The food was delicious, and super accommodating to multiple dietary restrictions. They have an independent gluten free menu, clearly marked vegetarian and vegan options, and soooo many options for drinks. The atmosphere was lovely, and super inviting. Lots of seating, outdoor and indoor. Child friendly, too!

I brought a party to the Harbour House for two special occasions because it’s on the water one of the few restaurants in Milwaukee. Being a vegan and gluten-free, I knew it was not the best choice for me, but for such an occasion to only be able to have a salad and potatoes was disappointing to say the least. I realize it’s mainly a seafood restaurant but options outside of that were so limited That it was almost laughable. The food that everyone else had was very good. One of our servers was so incredibly friendly, and the other was annoyed that I asked for alternative milk and also that I had to order just sides. I will not be going back ever, but but it is not to say it is not a good experience for people who eat animals.

Catered Beans and Barley for a post-wedding family picnic in the park! The process was seamless and we had so many great options to choose from. When we ordered, Jennifer made sure that we had enough food for 100 people and met dietary restrictions (nut-free, some vegetarian, some gluten-free). The day of, the team set everything up - including heated pans - all we needed to do was bring plates! Everyone complimented the spread - the turkey chutney sandwiches and the hummus on the veggies were guest favorites. And the pear coffee cake! Everything was clearly labelled and clean up was a breeze. Could not have been easier or more delicious - would order again!

Cora Beck

I got an avocado and egg sandwich with gluten-free bread. It was so good and the fresh fruit on the side was really good too. It wasn't loud in the cafe and the overall atmosphere was really relaxing. I really loved going here!

Jason Heppler

Enjoyed our food, service, and the atmosphere. Kung po chicken was good. The beef chow fun was incredible IMO. Ordered gluten free and felt safe eating here. Would recommend.

Tang L

There’s a separate menu for gluten-free. Staff was very accommodating.

Cherie Kath

Great 10”gluten free and dairy free cheese pizza great service

Natasha Girard

Atmosphere was trendy and cool. Servers were nice and accommodating for dietary restrictions. We waited a very long time for food, and it was toward the end of service, so it was unclear why. Food was very good. Spamelette was really unique and flavorful. My stomach was upset for a couple hours after eating though, perhaps from the richness. But my friend was also quite sick after she ate a dish they prepared dairy free, gluten free.

Laura French

Wonderful gluten free options. The gluten pizza is amazing. Gluten free pasta is too. If your getting to go double check your order before you leave tho sometimes there are mix ups. Fav place to go for gluten free pasta and pizza

Matthew Brugman

Good celiac safe yummy food!

Mary K

Great atmosphere. I understand that it's where you can get about the best pint of Guinness in Milwaukee. I do wish they would make the gravy gluten free like they do in Ireland - it's an easy fix

Shawna Kollath

I loved the gluten free pasta I had! And my son very much enjoyed his birthday keylime cheese cake!

Peter Angelos

Nice, well established Mexican restaurant. The highlight of their many menu choices are their flavorful and authentic sauces. Also a great choice for gluten-free and Celiac choices. They have a gf menu, gf tortilla chips and I have not reacted to cross-contact there.

Olivia Komppa

Went last night and this place was amazing! The bruschetta with gluten free bread was so fresh and delicious. The Frellini spritzer was super tasty and the other spritzes were pretty tasty too. The Chicken Piccata, Chicken Parm, and Vodka Gnocchi dishes were all phenomenal! Then for dessert the Flourless Chocolate Cake, Salted Caramel Gelato, and Tiramisu were all soooo good.

Kathryn Fairman

Ordered online, I had been told they were glutenfriendly and included my requests on the online order though they had said I should have the option to choose extras on the site. Food was prepped quickly. They forgot the dressing for my salad, the fries for the appetizer sampler were limp and the fried mozzarella sticks were cool.

Santana Sanders

Just had the worst experience here which is crazy because it was a spot I usually frequent due to them have gluten free items (I have celiacs). There were just a lot of micro issues that added up. First I walked in by myself and was told I could sit anywhere and I chose a booth. Waitress walked up, never greeted me and sat everything (water, menus, silverware) on the opposite side of the table from where I was sitting, okay that's fine, not too worried just moved it closer to me, then just walked away without greeting or really even asking if she could get me anything else. Not a word. Okay fine I get bad days. I then sat for 15 minutes before I had to eventually ask another waitress to take my order. I was very kind, smiley and tactful the entire time so I'm just really confused, She literally rolled her eyes and said okay, so I proceeded to order and I warned her I had celiacs and just wanted to make sure if she could let the kitchen know it's for a gluten allergy and to make sure the bread it gluten free (again being very kind). She acted like I told her to bite my toenails off?? I then get my order 20 minutes later and it's super cold and not to mention I found not one, not two, not even three but four strands of hair all over my plate. AND it was NOT gluten free bread! | was starving and unfortunately didn't notice till I took a bite and looked (plus when I had my gluten symptoms the next day from it). This is my second time getting glutened by them, my fault for thinking it would be different this time. Not to mention, all the servers were standing around talking the entire time and nobody came to check on me or anything at all. The menu revamp is different and they took off a few items that I loved. So I don't know. I just took the check and left. It was just the poorest service i've ever experienced since being in Milwaukee, I will not be coming here again. *NOT CELIAC OR GLUTEN SENSITIVE SAFE* I don't normally write bad reviews but I need to come on here for my fellow celiacs and gluten sensitively/allergen people.

Just had my first gluten free fish fry in 17 years. Whaaat!? It was delightful. Turns out all (but one) beer they have on tap is also GF. How am I just learning this. Curry fries and jalapeno cole slaw was also on point. Eddie at the bar also provided great service. I’ll be back.

Mia Morgante

Ian’s used to have GREAT gluten free pizza, but I just got one tonight and they must have changed crust suppliers because it was awful. It was so tough and like cardboard to chew. Also, it seemed like the toppings were just thrown on and barely baked (I ordered pineapple, and it was basically raw, obviously had not been cooked at all). I’m so disappointed, I used to love this place!

Perfect for any occasion and any group size. Food was delicious, service was excellent. I am gluten free and the menu had so many options and was easy to accommodate my allergy. We will be back.

Never heard of this place. We were nearby and this popped up as an option for lunch. They have gluten-free and vegan options. The vegan options sounded good, but I decided on the Bollywood, chicken smash burger with a gluten-free bun. Side of fries. So good. We walked 10 feet across the building and sat at Great Lakes Distillery and I had a Roary Stormy. Thank you google for finding this gem for me. Yum!

We had a wonderful Mother’s Day experience this year, and they were very kind and considerate of my mother’s gluten allergy. Will be going back!

Amy Wall

Any time I can find myzithra in Milwaukee I am immediately invested, and Avli did not disappoint! Having gluten free pita available for the hummus was another lovely surprise, the view is beautiful, experience was enchanting. We will be back in warmer weather to enjoy the patio!

Callie Barfield

Very friendly staff who worked really hard to customize menu items so our gluten free friends could have an amazing breakfast! We love it here!

Delicious, lots of gluten free options, feels like you're getting a fresh home cooked meal made with love and care. Worth the wait! My only recommendation is to put more sauce or at least have some extra easily available. I went up to the counter to ask for more sauce since my wrap was a bit dry but the staff was very busy. Plenty of tables, great location to meet up with friends as there is a variety of food vendors to choose from in the shared space.

Cafe India is a go-to, tried and true kind of place. Ive never had anything I didn’t like from Cafe India, and I’ve tried a pretty good portion of the menu. This place is perfect for a lazy-takeout night in, a lunch with friends, or an upscale dinner date. It can be whatever you want it to be. The service is great, atmosphere good, prices decent, and food tasty. And it’s Indian, which means it is perfect for your gluten free or vegetarian loved ones. Half the menu is vegetarian, and GF is clearly marked.

Autumn Carroll

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! This is hands down the best Italian restaurant in Milwaukee. I also have celiac and their gluten free pasta is 🧑‍🍳💋

Adam Moscinski

Wow! Went to Maharaja with my family for Father’s Day and was completely blown away. There are a couple allergies in my family, and the staff here went so above and beyond with Gluten Free and Dairy Free accommodations. I had the Chicken Tikka Masala with two different types of fresh bread. 10/10, some of my favorite Indian food I’ve had. The service was outstanding as well. It is clear that they take great pride in this place and truly care for the customer experience. I will be back many more times. Thanks!

Megan Landry

Had lunch here with my husband and our toddler. They do have a kids menu, you just have to ask. Options are either chicken tenders or grilled cheese with fruit or chips. He can be picky but we ordered him the chicken with fruit and he liked it. I had the sesame ginger chicken sandwich. I am gluten free and our waiter was knowledgeable and ensured my meal was safe for me. I’d definitely go back and try something else.

Joe Ludwig

I've been to Wonderland a couple times now, and have enjoyed the experience both times. Friendly staff, great food, cool atmosphere. We haven't had an issue getting a table when we had a party of 4. Even the standard burger is nice and juicy, and full of flavor, and the gluten free bun it came on was better than your average gluten free bun. I was going to take pictures of my food, but I ate it too fast!

Kate CW

Whole gluten free menu that makes a majority of the regular menu accessible!
