Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots to Discover in Cape Town

Julia Immenkamp-Hill

Lazari – A little café with a big heart Lazari is one of those places that makes you feel instantly welcome – whether you're a local or just passing by. This morning, I met my sportgrouo friends there for a wholesome vegan breakfast: gluten-free Bircher muesli with dry coconut, blueberries and apples, a fresh carrot juice, a fiery ginger shot, and a warm, comforting cup of mesquite – now my favourite caffeine-free café-style drink. Usually, I’m not vegan, but with a retreat coming up tomorrow, I wanted to skip animal products – and this breakfast was just perfect to feel light and a little detoxed. And I normally don’t like almond milk, but here it was surprisingly delicious – smooth and satisfying. With its mix of small, cosy tables and larger ones for lively gatherings, Lazari offers space for connection and calm alike. And at the heart of it all is Linda, Michelle and her team who brings soul and sparkle to this beloved neighbourhood spot. I’ll definitely be back – to savour more flavours, support this sweet buzzing hub, and soak in the friendly, feel-good vibe.

Had a really nice glutenfree pizza there for lunch. Got served super fast. Our waiter Lucy was amazing with my toddler and he got his own pizza dough to make his own pizza bread, which they then baked for him. Can recommend 100%. Thaaaaanks !

I absolutely loved the Gluten-Free Classic Falafel Wrap. So fresh and flavorful. The Peanut Butter Cup was the perfect treat, rich and indulgent. Healthy, delicious, and made with care. Highly recommend it! 💛

We had the Patatas Crujientes, the corn ribs, the beef birria and the chicken birria. All of it was extremely tasty. Cocktails also fantastic. Our servers, Arnold and Nigel were friendly and helpful. I am gluten intolerant and am therefore quite difficult to cater for, but Arnold was well informed and made sure to point out what I wouldn't be able to eat on the menu.

The food was lovely, especially the gluten free, vegan waffles! The service was very slow though.

Wow this place is horrible. My wife has some dietary restrictions (gluten free), and the wait staff couldn't answer basic questions or provide guidance. We asked.to speak with the manager thinking they might have a better understanding of what they could do. But they didn't know where she was. On to the food. We ended up eating sushi because that seemed like to only items on the menu that would work. The sushi was a disappointment. I have had better sushi at places for 1/4 the price. The sushi rice lacked any flavor and was over cooked. The rolls were mostly rice and the fish was cut so thin it seemed like an afterthought. If you are gluten free avoid this place.
