Top 50 Gluten-Free Dining Spots Across Richmond

Melissa Johnson

As someone with a gluten allergy I am grateful to have a food stop where I don’t have to worry about anything on the menu. Been multiple times and everything is fresh and consistently good.

Had to wait a few minutes to get seated as they were busy. Obviously popular so that's good. Lots of gluten free and vegan options which were clearly marked on the menu and much appreciated. The food was delicious and the staff helpful and friendly.

I am a practicing gastroenterology physician in Richmond. I took my family to this restaurant, explained to the server three times that I have a gluten allergy and placed an order for a gluten free pizza The server appears to have acknowledged and recognized this and reported that she has family members who have a gluten allergy as well. Despite this, she incorrectly placed the order for a pizza for me with a gluten containing crust. Only after I had consumed as substantial amount of this item, did she then return and informed my family members that this was a gluten containing pizza. I asked to speak with the manager. While waiting to speak with the manager, another patron at the restaurant who had overheard the discussion reported to me that a similar situation had happened with him. I explained this to the manager who was completely unfazed. After a brief back-and-forth discussion with the manager, I noted to her that the servers attention to detail was negligent. I asked to speak with the owner. I received no call from the owner. I’m giving this place one out of five stars mainly on the basis of what appears to have been an inadequate response to a negligent server

This used to be my absolute favorite cake place in Richmond. I’ve been gone for a year and a half, came back tonight and saw the new location. The gluten free size is 1/3 what it was for the SAME price. No layers, nothing. The très leches I got was ugly, soggy and tiny. It didn’t taste too bad but I will not be coming here again.

This was literally the best fried chicken and fries I’ve ever had in my life. AND, IT WAS GLUTEN FREE! I couldn’t believe it. Service was excellent. The workers were all smiling and laughing. Great music.

Lav Rand

I loved the atmosphere and it was honestly the absolute best gluten-free pizza I have ever had! It is a little pricey but so worth it!

Emma Burris

Richmond staple, such good sandwiches, wonderful art and gluten free collection. I love the window seat.

Worth the title of best restaurant in Richmond. This meal did NOT disappoint. I can’t eat gluten and was told the Chef has celiac and that’s why so many items on the menu cater to that. Amazing service by Drew!!. I wish I lived closer and I would eat here weekly! Get the squash appetizer 🥰

This negative review is not about the food. The food is excellent. However, one of our party is extremely allergic to gluten and straightforwardly asked for the gluten-free version of his dish; our server failed to communicate this request to the kitchen. Either that, or the kitchen did not follow her instructions. I was nervous when I noticed she was not writing our order down on a notepad or tablet and instead attempted to memorize it. After the food came out, he asked “just in case, is this gluten free?” and the server said “yes, it is”. Only after he had finished half the crepe did she come back and say “actually, I'm so sorry, it is not gluten free”. He is now quite ill and upset, unsure as to whether this will render him very sick for the next few weeks. The dish was taken off the ticket and a gluten-free version was prepared after the fact, which was appropriate. For those who go here and require a gluten-free option, you must strenuously communicate this to your server, since it is not guaranteed that it will be communicated to (or understood by) the kitchen.

Organic ingredients bring it to the next level. Great vegan/vegetarian/gluten free options. Friendly staff.

Joyce Drakeford

Loved it!! I have a wheat allergy and eat gluten free. HANDS DOWN the best fried fish I'd ever have. The waitress was lovely and attentive. We've been waiting for this joint to open for a few months and finally got in. Be sure to try the gf sticky toffee pudding!! It was yummy! I cant wait to go back and try the Thai menu too!!

Went for Easter brunch. Service was attentive, food was great and reasonably priced for a fancy buffet. Would love at least one dairy-free and gluten-free option for dessert. Will definitely go back!!

Greg MARTIN

First time dining here. Great dog friendly porch. Had a fabulous lunch/brunch. They have multiple gluten free options on the menu. Service was great and staff went out of their way to make sure our dog had it's own water bowl and shady spot to get out of the sun. The food was terrific. I had a breakfast bowl with pork bbq. Huge portion that I couldn't finish. Can't wait to come back for Supper!

We hosted our wedding rehearsal dinner at Cap Ale downtown and could not have been happier! They were super easy to work with, made accommodations for allergies/dietary restrictions, and the whole thing was super reasonably priced. And of course, all the food and drinks were delicious! My wife and I are both gluten-free and dairy-free, and we decided to not have dessert since the two options on our pre-set menu weren’t gf and df. The team at Cap Ale took it upon themselves to provide a dairy-free, gluten-free cheesecake for the two of us to share! It was amazing and really left an impression that they took the time to do this. Huge shout out to Jessica who took great care of our whole party, and to Amber who helped us with booking.

Pam Ryan

Supergirl restaurant with our awesome server Alondra. The atmosphere was super exciting and fun. We played pickle ball first across the street and then enjoy delicious margaritas and Mexican beers with delicious chips and dips. The ambience is really cool. We enjoyed eating outside. I am strict gluten-free with celiac and I was able to find a lot of delicious things to eat. It's a fabulous place to eat!

Senza Tempo Cane Corso

I love toast so much but this new location is even better if you can even imagine. They always have plenty of gluten-free options for me and the fried calamari was absolutely amazing. It doesn't matter what toast you go to. It's going to be fantastic but this one has some new menu options that I really enjoyed.

Katherine Britton

I'm a gluten free girl (celiac) and was blown away by how delicious the food was last night. I got the part of the special (apple fennel salad with peanut dressing) and THE WOW. The burger I ordered with it was delicious too, but I could have eaten three times the amount of that salad/slaw. It was incredible and I would love to see it on the menu again next time!

Jessica Hill

The food here was truly exceptional, as was the service and their gorgeous space. Excellent, creative flavors and good knowledgeability about gluten sensitivity. HIGHLY recommend trying the cachapas. The cocktails were good but not quite at the same level as places like Heritage or Roosevelt. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we will absolutely be back!

Kelly Adam

Great little spot to get an aperitif. The spritz was a perfect mix of bitterness and sweetness. The hummus board came with a variety of vegetables and pita bread (I was also able to substitute gluten free bread!), and overall I was impressed with the size for the price. Perfect addition to your neighborhood walk.

Caitlyn Conner

Their dirty chai latte is delicious and the double chocolate gluten free scone even better! When I go to bakeries with friends, I don't expect to have any food options so not only was it nice to have choices, but it was also REALLY TASTY!!!

Kayla K

This place was incredible, the private space was amazing, the tasting was so well thought out, and our entire group had a blast. Bonus points: they have gluten free options.

Jorge Juarez

Excellent burgers and fries, reasonably priced if you go on Thursdays from 5-9. Points for offering gluten-sensitive bun option. Will definitely go back!

Food was excellent. I had the NY Strip steak, it was perfectly done. Rice and vegetables also very good. Can order gluten free if needed. The chefs were very entertaining.

Julia Zarambo

We stopped by for an appetizer and a couple glasses of wine on Friday evening. The service was excellent. We ordered the cheese board. The homemade focaccia was gluten free and tasted amazing. I was honestly pretty disappointed in the cheese selection on the board. One was a bleu cheese, I don’t mind bleu cheese but it seems out of place on a cheese board, especially with no warning on the menu. The middle cheese (I think it was Parmesan?) lacked flavor overall. The final cheese was a soft goat cheese and it was delicious. The board is also served with a variety of fruits, jams, and nuts which is an awesome touch. Overall it was a decent experience.

Absolutely love this place! It’s quickly become my favorite cafe to cowork in. The staff is super friendly, the vibes are cozy, the food is comforting (they’re fantastic with gluten free people like me), the internet’s fast, and they obviously care a lot about the community. They even have a rack of coats available for people who need them and hot meals for anyone who’s hungry and can’t afford it. Totally the type of place we should be supporting!
