Top 40 Gluten-Free Bakeries to Delight in Denver

Casey Cromwell

Soooooo many amazing options to choose from! Our surprise faves were the soft pretzels bites and the sourdough bread. Donuts were also yummy! They also had many dairy free and vegan options and were very allergy aware.

They are so accommodating. I have Celiac and it is nice to go to a 100% gluten free kitchen.

I found this place on accident because I was the DD for my friends yesterday. All the bars that we were going to did not have any safe foods for me. I recently discovered my stomach cannot tolerate dairy and gluten. So, my partner found this place for me to go to on my own. I had a great waiter named Rob H, who was so nice and had really fast service. I couldn't believe how full I got so fast on the food, the ventilation in this restaurant is really good, so I felt safe taking my mask off when I needed to eat. Another thing that sold me was they served luke warm water in bottles and I'm always asking restaurants for this and they never accommodate. This is why I always go into food places with my own water bottle, but I don't need to do that here. It's very LGBT friendly, I felt very seen and safe. I also loved that I do not think they serve any drinks with high fructose corn syrup (which is another trigger ingredient I can't have). They have a small little bakery and I loved how they had alcohol stuff, but it was minimal and it was less in my face. As a person who's trying to stay sober, I really appreciated this. I definitely will be back and I'll be telling all my friends about this place. The food was hot, came fast and super filling. I hope next time I can talk to the chef so they can give me pointers on how to cook gluten free and dairy free dishes that are filling, because I'm struggling with that. 5 stars, hands down

100% gluten free and extremely allergy friendly. Their chicken and dumplings was super flavorful and their French toast was the best gluten free French toast I’ve ever had — crispy on the edges and soft in the middle. Super convenient to order since you use a digital stand to do so and can see all allergens when picking your meal.

Love City O’ City, been coming here for over 15 years. The food is top notch, service is great, and we beat the morning brunch rush by arriving at 10 o’clock on a Saturday. Met a dear friend there for our last breakfast before she moved out of state. Nice to know this place is still doing well. Had the chicken and waffles…it was delicious and gluten-free.

This is the best Gluten Free & Celiac Safe bakery EVER! They are 100% gluten free, I was shocked when I went to order and everything I saw was gluten free, because it looks that good! Not only is the presentation of the food absolutely amazing, but I can’t even begin to talk about the taste! Everything I have tried has been incredible there. They have, donuts, bagels (& bagel sandwiches!!), cannolis, beignets, baguettes, cinnamon rolls, crepes, & more!!! I’m always blown away with the taste. If you go, I recommend trying the “Whole Lotta Farm” breakfast sandwich, the cinnamon rolls (which you can take home frozen!!), and the cannoli. Everything is made fresh DAILY, which is amazing! But be warned that if you see something you want on the menu, the earlier in the day you go, the better. Because everything is made fresh you have to get there before it sells out! Or you have to wait til the next day. So so happy I found this place!!

I was cautiously optimistic when I heard about a pie shop that had good gluten free options. Umm, people, this place is beyond good, it’s amazing. If you like pie or things that taste great, you have to visit Legacy Pie Company in Wash Park.

🚨 Gluten free options! Food is pretty good and they have quite a few options! Used to be called Udi’s. Miss those days.

Andy Yoder-Horst

Great donuts. The regular donuts were amazing and I got some gluten free ones for a friend and she gave them a good review as well. The staff was helpful.

UPDATE: The response from the owner is disingenuous and false. The employee I spoke with on the phone was the same employee I had emailed with previously about the order. There was no confusion about the status. I asked multiple times to confirm on the phone that my order would be ready for pickup on the agreed upon date and that everything was set. By the way, I called the number provided by the owner this morning with no response. I assume this reply and all the others on their other 1 star reviews are just a false attempt to save face online. As stated previously, STAY AWAY! HAPPY BAKESHOP IS NOT A HAPPY PLACE! Stay away! Similarly to what many others have noted in their 1 star reviews, I ordered and confirmed a customer cupcake order for my 6 year old daughter's birthday only to arrive to pick them up and be told they had no record of the order and would not fulfill the order. I submitted an online request for 24 puppy-themed cupcakes on Tuesday September 24th for my daughter's birthday party on Saturday the 28th. Happy bakeshop responded quickly via email to confirm the order and to ask a few additional questions, as well to to make sure I was fine picking the order up on Friday evening before the party to accommodate their bakery schedule. I called the bakery back on Wednesday the 25th at 1:30pm (I have all the phone records). I spoke with the bakery staff for 5 minutes. During this phone call I confirmed that we approved of the puppy designs they had sent, approved the flavors of the cupcakes (4 of them being gluten free), and confirmed that I would be there to pick the order up on Friday at 5:00pm the evening before the party. Before hanging up I confirmed a second time that I would be there at 5:00pm to pick up the customer order. Flash forward to Friday at 5:00pm... I arrive wife my daughter who has been excited to pick up her puppy cupcakes all day. The staff member working there told me they had no record of my order. I showed him both the email and the record of my phone call. He told me they would make it right and that he just needed to get in touch with the baker. I left him with my name and phone number. He called back about 30 minutes later and told me the baker informed him they would not actually be able to fulfill the order since "they are so busy tomorrow." Now my daughter is devastated and we are scrambling to figure out an alternative for her puppy themed party tomorrow. Shame on Happy Bakeshop. This place is anything but happy.

I was there for work purposes nearby. I went there three times they are gluten free and vegan friendly. I couldn’t get enough of their sandwiches very easy to over eat but why is that a problem if it’s so friggin delicious and they’re super accommodating. I’m not in Denver anymore, but I am still thinking of those sandwiches and wiping the drool off my lip.

Alicia Whitman

An incredible place to order a dietary friendly cake! I’ve ordered 2 cakes from here and 2 rounds of cupcakes, all gluten free and vegan, and they were HITS! People cannot tell they are GF/DF! Phenomenal.

Carissa Colegrove

Got a dozen cupcakes for a birthday. They were moist and delicious. Even the gluten free ones! Staff was quick and nice!

Eric Hardway

Pizza was good, but maybe take the gluten free garlic bread off the menu

Girlie Kulp

We were looking for a good breakfast spot in Aurora, Colorado, and came across Woodgrain Bagel & Deli. The place was packed, but the service was impressively fast. I loved it! The staff was friendly and welcoming, always serving with a smile. I also tried the Matcha Chagaccino coffee, and it was amazing. The space is a bit small, but there’s outdoor seating available if the weather allows. I highly recommend this spot, especially for travelers with gluten allergies like me!

Benjamin Ueberroth

This place is awesome. My dog knocked over some food and they remade it without extra charge or a fuss. Awesome gluten free goods. We get a GF birthday cake here every year. Highly recommend!

Emily Ward

Extremely gluten free friendly and just a happy place in general, brightens my day! I'm excited about the latke sandwich.

Sophie Rosenblatt

Easily my new favorite neighborhood coffee shop. I was greeted by the most gentle and friendliest barista. a Sunday at 8 AM, that feels rare. The stamp on the to go cup was created by a local digital artist who use the face of the neighboring shop owner. What a special touch. The outdoor garden was a surprising oasis. I hope to bring my book there and relax. Also complements to the gluten-free peanut butter chocolate chip cookie. Delicious and I recommend to all gluten-free/vegan people.

Tiffany did an incredible job with the dessert bar for our wedding! She even drove down from Denver to CO Springs through a snowstorm! We always buy cupcakes from Yours Truly for every occasion, so of course we had them do our wedding as well. They created custom cupcake flavors for us and well as made gluten-free options. The s'mores bar looked amazing and the hot chocolate bar was a huge hit because of the weather. We definitely recommend them for all of your cupcake and dessert needs!

Cora Hageman

An Absolute Must, Even in a Snowstorm! 10/10—would trek through a blizzard again for this experience! After hauling our snowboards and bags several blocks through the snow, we arrived cold and hungry, and wow, was it worth every step. The staff was incredibly accommodating, offering a safe spot to stash our gear so we could settle in and enjoy our meal stress-free. Now, let’s talk food—because oh my god. Their gluten-free options aren’t just good; they’re phenomenal. The gluten-free pasta? Perfection. The gluten-free burger buns? Fluffy and delicious. And the gluten-free cheesecake? Life-changing. If you’re worried about missing out on flavor, don’t be. The four-cheese pasta from the lunch menu was so rich and satisfying, it left me happily stuffed. If you’re debating whether to go—just do it. Snow, rain, or shine, this place is absolutely worth the journey!

Gluten free chocolate chip cookie smacked.

Mercantile has an attractive space with an enjoyable menu to select from. Everything was prepared well and the service was very good; knowledgeable and genuine. Stand out dishes for us were the beef cheeks, charred cabbage, and octopus. Lots of enjoyment there! Caviar was also tasty. Spiced carrots were a miss for us; dill forward and not actually spicy. 8/10. Definitely a good spot for a high quality meal. We’ll be back eventually. Also very gluten free friendly.

janay hodge

Cake was delightful, super tasty, flavorful, and overall the most perfect gluten free cake I have ever had.

Mike S

Great service, so many things made in house. I had the berry chèvre sandwich with gluten free bread and the house tempeh bacon 🥓 YUM

Shabana

Usually always packed. Not much for gluten free options here. Over crowded atmosphere, loud and pretty on par for all the other food court type places in Denver. Nothing to write home about really. It is…. Eh.

Farrah L

This place is truly phenomenal! The service is great but more importantly the food is absolutely delicious. Every single thing we have ordered is to die for and prepared perfectly. It is a great place to take a whole family or a bigger group because there are lots of options for everyone. The gluten-free brownie was even incredible, as were the chocolate chip scones, the carrot cake and all the baked goods we have tried. A true neighborhood gem!

Robert Gauntt

One of the Congress Park staples! I love getting to take a walk from my house on any given morning with my dogs and being able to walk up to the window with them to place an order. Everything here is delicious (the almond croissant and the Shannon breakfast sandwich are my favorites). I also love getting one of the rotating agua fresca flavors. Today’s was dairy free horchata and it was amazing!! I also recently got diagnosed with celiac so I greatly appreciate the gluten-free pastry options as well as the ability to get a sandwich on gluten-free bread. Staff is always so kind as well :) Will keep coming back again and again.

Katherine’s created a small wedding cake for our very small pandemic wedding. We wanted a simple look that was high on taste and they delivered. We had the white mousse with fresh berries. Our guests commented that it was the best wedding cake they ever had! Will be ordering again any time we want to remember our wedding. Plus they made small pavlovas for a gluten free guest that were also amazing!

Daniel Hawtof

They are working on having a gluten free bagel. Thanks! Cant’t wait!

Keonia Williams

It’s a cute little shop. It is pretty small. So I would say it’s very nice to get something and enjoy at home. Great atmosphere for sitting outside when warm though. I got the lemon poppyseed which is gluten-free. It was very refreshing and moist. I also got their blackberry lemon scone. It was a pretty tasty scone. It’s texture had for a cookie crust and I didn’t really taste any lemon. I think the blackberry just overpowered it. It was still very good. I also got a cappuccino. Pretty strong and great flavor. I don’t think they have any alternative milks though. I was just offer whole milk. Staff is very sweet. They’re a small staff and work their butts off. Great hard working crew. They do have a few more gluten-free options as well.

Jem Crockford

Big Richard Energy (BRE) is the best gluten free cookie I’ve ever had!! 10/10

Chris Lindner

Always have non-gluten items in most stores yay for King Soopers people are fast and friendly good people good service

Meghan Donohue

I don't even know how to explain how INCREDIBLE this bakery is! Not only is every baker and worker so kind and so talented, but everything I have ever tried from Reunion Bread is absolutely melt in your mouth delicious. I take every person who comes to town to visit here :) Most of my guests say these pastries are better than some bakeries In Europe! You cannot go wrong trying a few natas, any of the specialty tartes, and my personal favorite, the Satiago GF cake <3 Easily the best Gluten Free baked good I will ever have in my life.

Christopher Clark

Outstanding sourdough breads and pastries. I love that their dough is naturally leavened, and fermented at least overnight, makes for delicious bread that is easier to digest for gluten-sensitive people. I look forward to making this place a regular stop for me.

Kelsey Biggar

This place is so cute! What a great little neighborhood coffee shop! Reasonably priced drinks and food (I say that in comparison to coffee shops in Platt Park nearby). They also sell bottles of wine, spirits, and beer, like a little neighborhood convenience store. Cool ambience inside and out. I will be back! Hoping for some gluten free pizza crust on the menu soon!

Stephen Tetschner

Lots of gluten free and vegan options. Pastries, sandwiches, and coffee galore. Awesome spot!

I found this place on instagram randomly. I went there specifically for the roulette croissants and they did not disappoint. We tried the dulce de leche, raspberry, and lemon meringue roulettes. They were all amazing, but the raspberry was the best! We got a mango passion fruit crown, which I 100% recommend. The golden sugar croffle was fun, because it reminded me of a funnel cake. The red velvet cupcake was light, soft and not too sweet. Lastly we tried the morning bun and it was also delicious, a little dense with tons of cinnamon sugar 😋. There wasn’t one bad item that we tried. I’m not sure if they have gluten free options. I will have to check next time I go and give an update. Everything was well worth it, even though it was a bit pricy. Each roulette was $9, but again it was totally all worth the price. Next time I would try their breakfast. The whole market was a fun place to go and experience. There is the bakery, chocolate shop, ice cream parlor, bar, sandwich shop, butcher, fish restaurant, wood fire pizza, and smoothie all in one place. Definitely recommend Izzio bakery and the whole market!

Maria Wydick

Cake Sugar World is my favorite bakery in the Denver area! The cakes and desserts are as beautiful as they are delicious. You can tell that the products used are the best quality! My family and friends are big fans of the fruit tartlets, the napoleons (Milhojas), and the pastry puffs (profiterols). But honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything your order. Every time I have an event and want to really impress and delight my guests (and my palate), I order here! I also want to commend Kenlys for being so inclusive in her baking. She offers options for different diet styles (vegan, gluten free, etc) without compromising taste!

Lauren Manzanares

I am so happy this bakery opened up next to Regis! The staff were incredibly friendly and excited to see new customers. The baked goods were incredibly delicious and very instagram worthy! I tried their tester Lunch sandwich which was pretty good however I would like to see more lunch options in the future. For my gluten free friends, there are options for you! Overall I would recommend if you want to indulge in some pastries🥖🥖

I live in Albuquerque, NM with zero Kosher options in any of the supermarkets. This exceeded my expectations of what I would find, along with the gluten free items. Plus I was able to save money with my Kroger card from NM.
