We make a point to visit Shana Cake every time we are in Topeka. My wife is allergic to gluten and, as a result, we have tried various gluten free bakeries and restaurants all over the world. The cupcakes at Shana Cake are my wife's favorite cupcake out of anywhere we have been and all their other treats are excellent as well.

I never have a bad experience at the Pennant. They have the best Gluten Free hamburger bun in town. I either get the Original hamburger and a side salad or the Sunflower salad with salmon. Always great. My only complaint is the wait staff can tend to have strong perfume/cologne or essential oils on. Can be over powering and headache causing for me. But I will not lower my rating.
This Mediterranean cafe offers a welcoming atmosphere with quick takeout service, ideal for travelers seeking gluten-free options like gyro with gluten-free pita. Its convenient location near a major highway makes it a perfect stop for gluten-free dining on the go.

So thrilled to find this sweet little Mediterranean restaurant in Topeka Kansas has gluten-free pita bread and several different options. The stuffed olive leaves are to die for. The hummus gyro Sandwich 😋 yummmmm I couldn't even get a picture of the whole thing it smelled too good!
This restaurant is a quick stop off of I-70 if you're coming through Topeka. Check it out they do to go and are super-duper fast.
This lively spot immerses guests in the craft process with distillery and brewery tanks beside seating and walls adorned with local railroad murals. While gluten-free options exist, service and availability have room for improvement, impacting the overall experience.

Came to Topeka for my wife’s surgery, stayed for the brisket Mac and Chee with brisket and an old fashioned. The drink was a bit too sweet but still made well enough. Food was also very good and the brisket smoke flavor was on par. It was well smoked and good meat. They offer a gluten free menu but my wife got the pork sammy without the bun. The pork was done really well too. Pickles might have been homemade, kinda gave me that vibe. Their BBQ sauce compliments well. Sweet but not thick, perfect for savory meat. If I lived closer I’d go more often, server was excellent. 5 stars because it was what I was hoping, price point and relaxed atmosphere.
This venue offers a golf-themed atmosphere with lively, inviting vibes and well-designed bays featuring top-tier Trackman simulators. Guests appreciate the gluten-free menu options and the great staff, making it a favorite spot for those seeking a safe and enjoyable gluten-free experience.

Jaz was phenomenal! The banana bread cocktail was an absolutely delight. It was a smooth cocktail which is a great gluten free option for dessert, when there is no dessert. Loved the jazz music as well!
