Top 50 Gluten-Free Bars to Experience in Mexico

Santa Iguanas had such a fun, chill vibe with a bright and lively atmosphere. The live music really brought the energy and made the experience feel extra special. We loved the margaritas and sangrias! They were perfectly made and super refreshing. The food was absolutely delicious, and the bruschetta was a standout. They even brought out one gluten-free and one regular version so we could both enjoy it, which was such a thoughtful touch. Tons of gluten-free options overall, which was a big plus. Definitely a memorable spot—we’ll be back!

Great gluten free options. All marked up on the menu. Came here twice!

Gorgeous restaurant and amazing food! Ate here on my birthday while visiting Playa del Carmen and was so magical and delicious! I have celiac (gluten allergy) and the team was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable on allergies - Highly recommend the tuna steak - it was so delicious! And the restaurant is actually built around a cenote - super cool experience and some of the best food I ate in Mexico!

I recently dined at Layla and had an incredible experience! The food was absolutely fantastic, with options to suit every dietary need, including being Celiac friendly. The staff was wonderful, creating a welcoming atmosphere with their great service and friendly demeanor. The vibe of the restaurant was awesome, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. Highly recommend!

I came here for the Gluten Free pancakes and they didn’t disappoint. They are very buttery and sweet. Best ones I’ve tasted in Tulum. Andres was my waiter and he was very attentive and welcoming. Really great place to work remote and spend the day.

BEST TACOS EVER!!! I had the la gringo taco which was AMAZING!! I also had the cheese crust pastor good but not as amazing as the above. My husband had the ribeye tacos and he said these were the best he's ever had. My kids and in laws enjoyed theirs too. The reason I took 1 star away is because after my MIL said she could not eat gluten they gave her a flour shell. Because of this she was not feeling well last night. Other then that everything was great. For desert we had the churros which were good but not as delicious as the corn cake!!! That desert is probably one of the best I've ever had and I own a bakery!!

If you’re a real pizza lover, I’d suggest giving this place a miss. We ordered two Diavola pizzas, one on a gluten-free base with vegan cheese and one regular. The gluten-free base came at an additional 100 pesos, which is quite steep, but I was curious to try it. Unfortunately, what arrived was more like a 1mm-thin tostada with a small amount of melted vegan cheese, no tomato sauce, and just four slices of what seemed like very basic salami. It really didn’t resemble a pizza in any way and was sent back straight away. Thankfully, we weren’t charged for it, which I appreciated. As for the regular pizza, it wasn’t much better. It looked like something from a very low-end all-inclusive buffet. The tomato sauce was unusually dark and definitely didn’t taste like San Marzano as advertised. The base was flat, undercooked, and lacked any real flavour or texture. On the plus side, the service was excellent. The waiter was kind, attentive, and very apologetic. I really felt for him, as he did his best in a tough situation. As an Italian who has lived abroad for over 20 years, I’ve had pizza in all kinds of settings and don’t consider myself particularly picky. But sadly, this just didn’t come close to what I’d consider pizza, especially at these prices. Piola used to be great years ago, but something seems to have changed. I won’t be returning.

I celebrated my birthday at this stunning hidden gem in Los Cabos, and the entire experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the design and ambiance were breathtaking — modern, artistic, and tucked away like a secret waiting to be discovered. The menu was exceptional, and as someone who is both gluten-free and vegetarian, I was blown away by how thoughtful and accommodating the chef was. They created a special custom dish just for me that was both delicious and beautifully presented. The creativity extended to the drinks as well — every cocktail was a work of art. And the highlight? A vegan cheesecake that was out of this world. If you’re looking for a place that goes above and beyond in every way — food, service, atmosphere. A perfect night and the best birthday dinner I could’ve asked for. 10/10!

It's good but not so small for so much money. This little ceviche cost me $290. I went here and ordered takeout because of celiac but how sad that we with celiac have to eat in expensive places. ALSO, they told me it comes with toast but they only gave me tortilla chips... something stressful for celiacs because I asked about their toast, not their tortilla chips. HOWEVER, I appreciate everyone who helped me with celiac, they took all my questions with great patience. 5/5 star service, it's just that there was little food. Many thanks to the host and the kitchen <3

Best grilled shrimp I’ve ever eaten!!! Server accommodated my inability to ingest gluten. Enjoyed the music too!

My husband and I are big Margaritaville fans. Not only is this Margaritaville right in the port, but they're actually affordable. They sell slices of watermelon alcohol infused Jell-O in real watermelon rinds for just $3 USD a slice. It's an incredible deal. There are tons of photo opportunities here and the restaurant is clean. Margaritaville also tends to be one of the few places with a marked menu for gluten-free options. Visited TWICE in January 2025

This restaurant is wonderful all around. Fabulous food, view, staff. The servers were very knowledgeable about gluten free restrictions and there were tons of amazing gf options! Highly recommend if there is someone with a gluten free diet in your party.

Amanda Hilton

YES, absolutely love this place! If I could have afforded to eat here every day I would have. I gave four stars for service since one server didn't understand me when I asked for gluten free options and I had to wait for him to track someone down who did know more. It's absolutely charming, right on the beach, and a peaceful getaway from the casa Dorada next door. It's just across the Alley street from casa Dorada, and feels like an entirely different world. It was our mini peaceful escape from the chaotic beach medano beach has become, and they've done an incredible job with the environment/vibes and also the food is healthy and tastes amazing 🤩

Meghan Daniels

Highly recommend this restaurant. The food was amazing. I have a gluten allergy and they offer a lot of options.

Great place to sit down and be by the water! No gluten free friendly options sadly. I had to just eat guac and chips.

Great service and the mole was the best I’ve ever had in the yucatan. Try the crickets they are not as bad as you might think and make for fun pictures. This is definitely on the expensive side but the atmosphere was well worth it. Check out the small cenote nearby across the street! They were very good with gluten and dairy allergies.

We had dinner here a few days ago and we really liked the customer service, the filet mignon, the octopus and the tiramisu. They also have several gluten-free options. We will eat here again if we are in Cancun again 😃

5 stars!! We had a group of eight including one with gluten allergy, one with a dairy allergy and even a child. We all found something to order and we all loved our meals! The salsas are the best part! Don’t skip this place when in Cancun

Fantastic pizza available in a gluten free crust that is actually fantastic. Great service reasonable prices. There was a mix up with my wife's pizza she couldn't eat and they quickly remade it no fuss no muss. Highly recommended and will be back.

Swung by for drinks as we were staying at another property. The gluten free options on the menu were limited so we also had dinner elsewhere that evening. The rooftop is expansive and service was on point. Come for the drinks and stay for the views.

Hello to all my Celiac and Gluten free friends, we stopped at Riviera grill yesterday and I told the server about my allergy. Try to specify you can't have breaded items or anything that has flour. I had the grilled shrimp with the creamy rice. I honestly didn't finish the rice because of the dairy in it which I didn't think of when I was ordering . Daniel was our server and he was super nice and the atmosphere was amazing :)
