Top 50 Gluten-Free Gems to Discover in Texas

HARSH SHARMA

Really good food, decent price and atmosphere. Gluten free. The thoughtfully crafted gluten-free offerings, such as the French toast and well executed smashed potatoes, are a testament to the kitchen’s attention to detail. I really like the complimentary tap water scene they have on the patio

This was my first time visiting the restaurant. I was in town for a wedding and googled. Having celiac and egg allergy it not always easy to find a good place with good options, but I was amazed by the food here. I went back a couple time's before leaving. This is going to be my to go spot always when in SA. Staff were great, atmosphere is very cute and friendly and did I mention the food ....it was AMAZING, so delicious, great variety , it made me like a normal person enjoying food actual regular food and not having to worry about getting sick!!! A definite win!!!

We came here to celebrate our son's 23rd birthday as well as his upcoming graduation from The Culinary Institute of America, and it was well worth every cent! We did the tasting menu and shared everything family style. The food is dairy and gluten free as well as plant-forward. That said, the braised shirt ribs did not disappoint. We left full and happy. If you're dining with someone who doesn't like vegetables, bring them here to change their mind.

What a treat to have vegetarian and gluten free! The food was delicious! And the agua fresca was sweet and refreshing. There were so many yummy sounding choices it was hard to pick, I’ll have to come back.

Yummy Gluten Free cake ordered for My mom's birthday. It was rich and delicious. Great ordering experience and service. Very friendly and convenient. My mom now wants to use Akki's for her own orders!

Joanna Dumont

Delish!

Ryan Perel

100% gluten free Mexican food in the heart of Austin! The food was delicious, and I legit wanted to eat the whole menu if I had an endless budget. You can’t go wrong with any item.

Mason Hines

This bakery makes me so happy. I can eat everything on their menu, and I always stock up on bread when I can swing by. (Best tasting gluten free bread I've found locally.) Always excited to try their rotating aura cupcakes for a nice twist, but my favs are the strawberry abyss and their swiss rolls. We've ordered a cake from them, and they did a wonderful job. (We'll likely order again.) Go stuff your face and smash the pastriarchy in one fell swoop. You won't regret it.

Amazing GF pastries & custom cakes! 100% gluten free

Marissa Escobedo

mind is mf blown. Lots of amazing gluten-free pastries, and absolutely amazing ice cream. The staff has great energy. 10 out of 10 all around.

Harini Sridharan

A wide variety of options and caters to several restrictions while still tasting great. My family loves the cupcakes here.

Heather IO

These cookies are amazing. Not amazing "for gluten free", just overall all awesome. I tried them at the farmers market and was so excited to see them on Doordash so I can order for my office. There are never leftovers.

Natalie Airey

Soo good! We buy our bread here instead of in the stores now

Snehapriya V

What An amazing experience. Everything on their menu is freshly made, no overnight veggies all vegan and gluten free! The village is filled with trees and is a cozy vibe!

julie hamsa

My daughter has celiac and we are always looking for decent basic bread options. We were both very happy with the rolls and white bread from Pie Jacked! Nice texture and much better than the store bought breads. Definitely recommend stopping in for some breads to go The location is small, and the staff was not very friendly, but the food is good.

This was a WOW for me. We were just passing through and asked some locals for a breakfast cafe nearby. We were to Bluebonnet Cafe and Tea Thyme Cafe. Once they said they offered gluten-free options, I was sold. If a place offers gluten-free options, they are sure to offer lots of fruit and veggie options and be very careful with their menu. I’m so glad we chose this one. The staff was SO kind and patient. The omelette was THE BEST I’ve ever had, with so many veggies, real eggs, and mozzarella cheese. I’ve never had an omelette with mozzarella cheese before. They also had a side called “enchanted mushrooms” and it was so amazing in flavor. I wish we had this restaurant back home. I’d be there weekly!

Elisa G

This place is amazing! Everything I have tried here has been so delicious. I love this bakery. Highly recommend.

Carolyn Barrett

Excellent food! And it is gluten free, dairy free, nut free. The nug box is a staple. The smoked chicken salad box is my personal favorite. The smoked salmon is quite good also; I recommend with the salad and rice. Food is so fresh here and the music they play is always fabulous and puts me in a good mood.

D T

10/10 experience! The vibe is so good here - gives a Tulum aesthetic. The service was fantastic. And the food! Fresh, delicious, flavorful. I went with my family and they all loved it! This is a fantastic place for gluten free folks - no gluten in the kitchen!

Piper Sullivan

Loved that everything is gluten free. Only place that I have found that is.

T Nguyen

The best mochi donuts in Austin! Teresa and Anthony, a husband-wife power duo, run this little pop-up business all on their own. They use a traditional Korean recipe and use 100% rice flour in their donuts, making it completely gluten-free. The flavors change often and are creative, fun and ALWAYS delicious!

Elena Levy

My wedding cake from Unrefined Bakery was a huge success! Their team was helpful from the get go helping me design a wedding cake, taking into consideration my budget and guest count. The cake tasting was incredibly helpful, and we ultimately went with a strawberry vanilla 2-tier cake. They even provided me extra icing in case the cake got bumped in transit (which it did!) and I needed to patch it up. We ended up only having a few pieces left because all of our guests loved the cake. Would highly recommend for anyone gluten-free or not!

Dennis Brewer

I love Re:Bar. I’ve started having business meetings here, and everyone is like it.

Jarrett Allen

We have had this restaurant on our list for a long time and it did not disappoint! Every single bite of food that we took was packed with flavor and was super tasteful. The menu was 100% gluten-free and had so many different options to choose from. Just a note, the time it takes to get your food after ordering it may take a little bit, but the wait is well worth it! The vibe was relaxed and mellow, perfect for having a conversation over drinks and small bites. For dessert we had the tres leches with a homemade meringue on top. It was a fantastic way to top off a great dinner!

When it comes to good food, it doesn’t take much to influence me. I saw a post/rave yesterday about JoyFull Bites Cafe and I just knew it was going to be good. I quickly made my way over and ordered the weekly special, which happened to be tostadas. I swear I could eat a tostado a day and be a happy man. I only had a 10 minute drive home, but it seemed like it took forever. I called my wife and told her I was bringing lunch home. Within minutes of arriving home, we were already digging in. The tostadas were absolutely perfect in every single way. The flavors were incredible, especially that jalapeño ranch. The tostada shell itself was still nice and crunchy, even after a 10 minute drive with all the ingredients stacked on top. Those ingredients were: •Grass fed taco meat •Organic black beans •Colby jack goat cheese •Shredded romaine •House made salsa fresca •House made jalapeño ranch •Avocado mash. I can’t recommend this dish enough. They also had tons of delicious looking treats, although I resisted. It was hard, but I turned the other cheek lol. If you haven’t stopped by yet, make your way over and find out how good their stuff really is. Everything is gluten free by the way!!!

Awesome pastries! 100% safe

Emily Graves

Quick, reliable, and safe spot for celiacs. My go to when I'm in the city.

Jamey Clarkson

Their chocolate cupcakes are divine! You would never know they were gluten free and allergen friendly

Steph B

Amazing dedicated gluten free bakery. It’s 100% celiac safe. Everything is amazing!!

Tamra Peet

Such a cute little bakery and shop! I got a lemon poppy seed muffin and a brown butter chocolate chip cookie! All their food is gluten free and tasted so good!! Highly recommend!

Shannon Bedinger

My favorite gluten free bake shop around! Love everything - can’t say enough positive things.

Kelly Harris

everything on menu is gluten free! The chicken tenders are amazing! The breading holds well and doesn’t fall apart ! 10/10

Shawnassy Aranda

Absolutely wonderful place for gluten-free (GF), vegan, and soy-free pastries, cookies, and sweet bread (mainly cupcakes. They also have a variety of music, stickers, stones, clothing, and other merchandise available plus non-merch clothing. Huge bonus that the plastic that things are individually wrapped in are all compostable as they are made from plant-based renewable resources. As of early May 2025 Google maps does not take you to the restaurant or even a good place to park for it- it takes you closer to Tweedy's bar parking. The parking behind Out of the Closet thrift store, across the street from Antone's records, is better parking and a much less complicated walk to the entrance. It does look sketchy, but at no time did I feel unsafe (I went around 5-6).

Erica Hellrung

I was so excited when this bakery opened in Frisco- having two celiacs and a wheat allergy in our home, we’re always looking for safe and trustworthy options. I hadn’t even tried the food yet but felt confident after reading so many positive reviews. I reached out through the website to inquire about custom cupcakes for two birthday parties, but never received a response. I followed up via email, and by then it was too late for the first party due to the delay. We moved forward with cupcakes for the second party and finalized all the details - only for the owner to cancel after everything was confirmed. It’s incredibly disappointing. Businesses like this are rare, and I had really hoped this would be a great resource for our allergy community. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been my experience.

I Palacios

Amazing food! I thought it was vegetarian and was so surprised to find out it was totally vegan and gluten-free! I truly didn’t miss anything. Packed with flavours and spices. Cute decor. Was a little hard to find but totally worth it. Great place. Highly recommend and we’ll be back.

Kenneth Todd

Asked for a drink menu, and the waitress said, it's in the regular menu, with an attitude. Then left us waiting for 15 minutes. We clearly wanted to order a second drink, but she was not interested in giving us service. We loved that the menu was Gluten Free, but it wasn't worth the price. The drink we ordered was $20 each, which ended up being very nice. We would have ordered more drinks and desert, but it just didn't work out. The manager noticed our displeasure and sent our waitress over, in which the waitress responded by walking up and asking, 'did you need something?' She was not kind. We spent over $100 for an appetizer and one shared meal and 2 drinks total. Would have spent more, but not while being ignored and disrespected. From my perspective, the food was not worth the price.

Stacy Falbaum

It’s so delicious. Like a reinterpretation of a classic noodle bowl. So fresh and no concerns about a negative health impact!

Joshua Lege

Always love going by and getting gluten free cinnamon rolls and their Twix gluten free desserts

Stephanie Olden

I wish I had more thumbs so I could tell you how much I love this place! Everything I’ve tried here has been wonderful. I’ve even shared with waitstaff when out celebrating. They’ve always been floored to find out it’s GF *AND* DF. I have recommended Chelsea’s little sweet shop so many times.

Faith David

Fantastic gluten free dessert! Wonderful and nice staff! I order from them all the time and they never disappoint!

Lisa Burner

Phenomenal! I got a gluten free coconut cake for my daughter and am so impressed by this most flavorful, dense, moist cake. The frosting is amazing too! I can be picky when it comes to frosting especially buttercream because I have had gritty-too sweet and this was just right without the gritty. This was my first time ordering and my daughter has to have gluten free. This is better than Any cake I have had including cake that is not gluten free. Highly recommended!

Jillian

The food was amazing!! We got the chicken and waffles, the Crunchwrap, and the Ghost Love combo. Y’all, we were crying it’s that good (if you’re gluten free/vegan). My partner is newly gluten free and normally eats meat and said the chicken and waffles tasted like the real thing! Shout out to Michael who chatted with us and helped with recommendations. If we lived closer, we’d be back often!!

Robyn Woods

It was the best gluten-free cake and cupcakes I have had I would 100% recommend.

gabrielle morley

we were visiting austin for the weekend from dallas, and had to stop in!! i have celiac disease and try to limit seed oils/processed sugar. everything was so yum!!!! wish we had one in dallas i’d be a regular :)

C

First time customer and was super impressed!! The food was absolutely delicious! Such a treat for people who are vegan and gluten free, I'm sure non vegans would love it too. Service was great as well. Can't wait to return soon.

Laura Behring

All gluten free makes me happy! Loved eating their Cookie Dough Ice Cream in a waffle cone. Macarons are all so good too, my favorites are Passionfruit, and Lavender. Boyfriend had a Pina Colada Ice Cream sandwich that was surprisingly so good. Will be back anytime I’m in Clearfork.

Lara

So beautifully healthy and delicious. Best of all, gluten free!!

Annie Feinberg

Delicious but overpriced for the too-small portions. Great gluten free options

Karen Brown

This place is incredible. The food was great, the kindness and conversation was inviting, and the restaurant is cozy and cute. It feels great to have a place you don't have to worry about getting glutened and you can talk about shared experiences. Finding a gem like this makes have celiac a little less stressful and a little less scary. I love the concept of having hot food and food I can take home and make/heat up. I love that the dishes are made with love and dedication for not just a gluten free meal but providing a tasty gf meal. Loved the place, the food, the caring nature of the owner and I'm excited to go back.

Bonnie Thomas

Wow! Can not tell you how good that pistachio brittle ice cream is🤯. Two of my favorite flavors rolled into one mind blowing treat❤️. My 2 kids and myself are gluten free and we were in hog heaven for my birthday treat🎉🎉🎉
