Top 44 Gluten-Free Dining Spots to Explore in Olympia

This is my go-to place for impressive dinners with friends. Everything is great, the food, the drinks, the service, the atmosphere (you can actually have a conversation without straining). I have yet to have a bad meal here in several visits. They have a great selection and make their own pasta, sometimes you can even watch them stuff the ravioli. When I was gluten free, they were so lovely about it, making sure I still had bread and that the shared charcuterie plate wasn't contaminated. The only thing I don't like is when it's time to leave, we have shut the place down at least once.

The food here is sooo good! Everything I’ve had so far has been very tasty…Ruben, Pulled Pork, & Pesto Chicken Sandwiches are all dishes I would order again! Even my kids (18,15,9) loved the food and they aren’t GF.

First time at the Soar Cafe. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was great! The wife has celiacs and absolutely no issues with the food and processing. Cute and historic place. Also, the water was amazing! Server said it’s from an artesian well! No chlorine taste like most city water.

Stacey Sorgen

Amazing foods! Great gluten free desserts you can get here or at the Olympia Farmer’s market

Roger Olson

Exceptional yellow curry. Giant plus that it is also gluten free. Will definitely be back

Steven Mock

My wife and I shared a delicious fig salad as an appetizer. She had the Iron Burger with gluten free buns and I had the Lamb Curry burger. Both were absolutely delicious. The garlic fries sides were a bit small, but that was ok. I had a couple glasses of excellent Malbec. It was quiet for a Saturday night which tells me people were totally missing out on a great dining experience. Make sure to visit the Iron Rabbit!

My new favorite! A group of food trucks with something for everyone. Arepa has south American street food and because the bread is all corn flour, it's naturally gluten free. A lot of new foods to try! The cubana blew my mind.

I've had several frustrating experiences at Red Robin that have left me disappointed. Time and again, my orders have been wrong—missing toppings I paid extra for, missing salad dressing, incorrect cheese, and even a gluten bun when I have an allergy. One visit, I opted for curbside pickup, but despite checking in right before my order was due, I waited over 15 minutes with no updates. When I finally went inside, my food was just sitting there, cold. I usually do curbside orders from here due to my service dog and autoimmune disease, there needs to be more regard for the need of these services and accessibility to disabled individuals. When I spoke with the Assistant General Manager about the delay, he mentioned the host was busy, but that's not an excuse for serving cold food. There should have been better coverage to ensure orders were handled promptly. On my latest visit, going inside hoping to avoid these issues, I couldn't help but feel like I was met with attitude from the hostess, which only added to my frustration. I still got the wrong cheese like I have on an occasion before and my chicken was even rubbery this time. I'm tired of feeling like Karen with a phone-call after that has begun to feel routine for this particular location. Overall, I love the food when it’s right, but the repeated mistakes and lack of customer service have made it difficult to enjoy my visits. I hope they can address these issues, as I’d love to return and have a better experience. I really like a few of the employees too so it's hard to leave a negative review.

The jumbo pizza is a family favorite, always a hit. The gluten free pizza is a disappointment. Flat and tough crust.

Lynn "Elikqitie" Smargis

If you’re looking for a place to grab the most fantastic brunch in town, you’ve found it! The chef puts together a seasonal menu that is definitely outside the box and very fresh! Lots of amazingly delicious gluten free options.

Service was great and pleasantly surprised by the gluten free menu.

Evelyn Moser

Great gluten-free menu, our server was very accommodating and very friendly. Would definitely recommend this location for a family friendly date night!

*Gluten free and vegan options available* Disappointed… all the reviews looked so good and I was excited to try this place. I was very articulate about my order. I asked for the avocado toast without the seasoning and on gluten free bread. I also asked for 2 poached eggs instead of the pickled beet egg. I received one egg, poached hard. The guacamole on the bread was extremely salty. The fruit on the side was old and browning. I asked the waitress for my second egg and she said it only comes with one, but I reminded her I had asked for two and that I was fine with the extra charge. I got it and it was poached correctly, alhamdulillah. Wait time was very long. We waited 30 minutes for our food. My grandma got a waffle which she said was “fine”. Overall, I wouldn’t come here again.

Love this place. Everything about it. A great casual breakfast place and friends' meetup spot for a bite of good food. I think they have more than breakfast?...look it up! The home fries...crispy on all sides! The Benedict...excellent ham, homemade and spectacular Hollandaise. The poached egg...solid whites and perfect runny yolks (super fresh egg) to soak into my optional gluten free toast French toast looked scrumptious and the biscuits looked excellent....next time! The staff and owner...warm.and kind. The weekend wait?...coffee and cups and cream await you..no begging the busy staff...go pour yourself a cup and chat or people watch or stare at your shoes. BITS is worth the wait.

Kelsey

Love this place! Delicious and fresh food. Options for folks that are vegan and gluten free!

Galen Disston

The service was great, and although we eat gluten-free, dairy free, and vegetarian, the wait staff suggested a delicious portobello steak. Greatest view in Oly!

Billie Ortega-Ortiz

Always a great time. Food is great and the show is always fun. My daughter is a celiac, but she can eat there with no issues, they just make her food separate from everyone else's.

Crystal Mc

I’m so glad we stopped here! I had a gluten-free vegetarian bowl, it was delicious and fresh and I ended up taking 1/2 of it home. I had the Mezze Bowl with Quinoa and added Falafel for more protein. Since Falafel is a bit dry for me, I asked for some Greek Ranch and it was perfect for dipping! He had the Tex-Mex burrito with onions subbed for the avacado, and even with his larger appetite he took 1/3 of it home because it was such an ample portion. This is their only location in the US (they’re Canadian owned), but the next time I’m traveling through the area, it will be my go-to stop for a healthy and reasonably priced meal.

Order in only. No seating in restaurant. Food is awesome and gluten free. Avoid deep fried appetizers or naan bread.

Amy Peters

Loved the Gluten Free options they have. 1st time trying out this restaurant but it won't be my last.

Eun Schultz

Gluten free! Excellent! Best thai food we've had in Olympia! EVER! We had classic pad thai and the danang curry. Wow! Will definitely come back for more! Made our 19th Anniversary dinner delightful! (Who needs a fancy restaurant when you can have great gluten free thai food at the park??)

This was my first time here. I may return but my expectations aren't too high. The group I was with was satisfied with their meals, especially the beignets. They did look very tasty! That being said, I have celiac and am limited in food choices. The person who planned this event chose Octapas because they had gluten free options. Actually there were 2 options. One was huevos rancheros, that is what I chose, hard to mess it up. Boy was I wrong. The good first, the eggs were perfectly cooked and the few bits of cheese were authentic. The not so good, my plate and meal were cold, the beans were strained before putting them on the plate so now were dry(and cold), I swear the sauce - which should be a ranchero sauce with a flavorful Chile taste and aroma- came right out of a can labeled tomato paste. It had some dried green herbs sprinkled on it... and did I mention it was cold. There was no rice or potatoes - as is customary with huevos rancheros. I finished it quickly but left hungry. There is another gluten free options on the menu... I may try it, hope it isn't cold. The server was very attentive and checked on us often. The atmosphere was very nice and we all appreciated the artwork on the walls.

Good food with gluten free options

Nick Messina

If I could give above 5 stars, I would! They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect! The gluten free drunken noodles are amazing!

Hannah

The gluten free pizza is the best in town!

Kefi Andersen

I liked their ceviche and had a nice mint cocktail that I'd recommend. The portions vary a lot. I got the diavola prawns and it was enough to share while my partner got street tacos that were much smaller. The tortillas were freshly made, so get the corn ones! Atmosphere is kitchy. There's a taco truck parked inside that's part function part decor. Not fancy. Laid back. Good for a dressed down kind of night. Not too loud. Kids would be ok here although there's a bar partitioned off. Patio looked appealing for warmer weather. There were good gluten free options. My partner got street tacos that fit for gluten free dairy free. Staff were very helpful about the food allergies. Not as attentive to timing with the bill. You may need to be a bit more visible and ask for your check. Parking was easy. It's just off I-5.

Gluten free pre-packaged cookies

Darlene Courtois

We specifically go here for the vegan menu and it's superb! I'd love to see more clarity on which items are also gluten free but otherwise great! Service is so quick and easy. Servers are awesome, we have especially liked Isaac.

Amber Baird

Great food. New options. Only wish was no batter on French fries for us gluten intolerant folks.

Excellent atmosphere, friendly, thinly spread service…food can be 10/10 or 5/10…a mixed bag. Beechers Chicken should never leave the menu, whereas the Brisket Ragu had entire bites of “meat” that were 100% fat. The fondues are incredible….but if you can’t get indoor seating I’d skip it. Hot air blasted at your forehead, while the rest of you freezes. I do love that there are gluten free options….and the servers are very warm but we had empty glasses and it took three passes before we were able to successfully get the bill…no offer of dessert but at that point we were DONE DONE. Lots of empty tables so they shouldn’t have been swamped…but we were ready for a self help kiosk by the end.

I like Mod Pizza. It's thin and crispy crust is perfect for not making you feel over gluten burdened. The sauce is tasty and I feel like the amount of toppings and cheese are always on point. This is the first time I've been to this new location. The restaurant was clean and empty. I was immediately greeted by the young gal behind the counter. Very friendly and eager to make my pizza. I got a Hawaiian with Feta kids sized pizza, which was the perfect size for my appetite. I must say, they are expensive. But, I don't frequent this area often so it was a fun and tasty splurge. The music was also at a decent level and both the young people working were friendly, and hustling when the place started getting busier. Nice job!

I love the concept, everything I've tried is delicious and beautifully presented. They have a few gluten free things marked on the menu, but there's more if you ask.

Amanda Hudson

The pulled pork and brisket were cooked great and had excellent flavor. The BBQ sauce is gluten free and non gmo. Flavor on the beans was really nice, just a small amount of heat. Worth the stop - be hungry, the portions are generous. Really friendly owner. Support this small business.

Tomara Jackson

They now offer a gluten free and cauliflower crust for an additional charge. The cauliflower crust was cooked perfectly and the toppings were generous.

This place is dope!!!! Great vegan gluten free bacon burger, and the place had a gritty vibe( the best of all vibes).

G Newman

Love the ambiance, the food the service and gluten-free options

Ian Sage

Wild Child has some amazing food options on their new menu, I got the Bacon Jam Burger and it was PHENOMINAL. They also have a gluten free bun available for any of their burgers, and they are quite aware of allergens, and were able to confirm which of their items could be made gluten free. The atmosphere is welcoming and fun, while still having that "local pub" vibe. We also got some drinks, including a flight of some options they have on tap, and they were all great. If you are looking for a good place to get a great burger or sandwich and drinks, especially if you're having a hard time finding a good gluten free option, this place is a great pick!

Sheldon Kreger

Best Vietnamese food in Olympia. Soups are truly gluten free. The space is clean and the staff is friendly.

Denise Kiers

Ilk’s smash burger on a gluten free bun is the best I’ve ever eaten!!
