Top 50 Gluten-Free Bars to Experience in Manchester

Flo Moroney

First time since being diagnosed that my husband could have Chinese food out. Amazing! They have to use tortillas instead of traditional pancakes with the duck but totally worth it. Great quality lots of choice. Extremely good understanding of cross contamination. Will definitely be back

Went for an early mid week tea. There was a separate Gluten Free Menu with plenty of options and the allergen handling was clearly explained, I ordered a smoothie and the staff member made sure all the equipment was swapped out before making. Food was delicious and speedy. Items were also clearly labelled with allergen markers which was reassuring. Can't wait to go back and try something else from the menu!

Alanah Moulsdale

The gluten free menu here is HUGE! The lounge restaurants can be found in every major city and there’s something for everyone. I usually go for lunch and have a gluten free sandwich. Their bread is cooked separately and so are their fries. The staff are great with allergens.

Alanah Moulsdale

Accredited by coeliac UK. Gluten free menu available, including wings, nachos, steaks, salads and burgers.

Alanah Moulsdale

They have a gluten free menu, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. They are very careful with coeliac disease and made sure my food was cooked separately.

Alanah Moulsdale

Gluten free options available and the staff are very clued up on cross contamination!

Ridwan Barbhuiyan

Very tasty food and so many gluten-free options! Was emphatically informed that everything on the menu was halal (went there because several reviews mentioned this too) but it would have been reassuring to see it advertised somewhere too. Service was friendly and caring, though information about allergens and portion sizes was a little confusing at times ("all the dishes are tapas-portions so we recommend getting a mix" vs "that dish is a main so you don't need other dishes"). The atmosphere was generally pretty good for a Saturday night i.e. lively chatter and the music wasn't too loud, though it was very smoky at first but that cleared up soon after.

Ashleigh Wilson

Prebooked a 2 course Christmas meal with friends. Mainly due to gluten free options available. Food was delicious. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Extensive drinks menu - i tried a few coctails and tye salted caramel martini was amazing! Absolutely will be back in the new year.

Tierni Clarke

Service extremely slow - non existent interaction with staff, we just walked in and found a table after waiting a few minutes. Wasn't that busy when we visited, ordered at the bar instead of downloading an app. Very disappointing portion size for the price, food was also not that hot. Tasted ok but wouldn't rush back. The booths with individual TVs were a nice touch to be able to see the TV if you wish. Music very loud so not the best for small babies/children. Very detailed menus - separate ones for gluten free and vegan. Great choice but not well presented.

Marcin Dobrowolski

Nice small coffee shop, very good coffe and food, lots of gluten free options available, can be ordered via QR code. ☕👍😋

Been here a few times now and it is just fantastic! The food was amazing and would definitely go back just for that. The first time I went, one of the people in my party had a gluten and nut allergy and the waitress took it seriously, providing all of the necessary information making sure the food was safe for everyone. Not really a fan of the cocktails it’s quite a limited menu and so can we difficult to pick one if you are a bit fussy. Been here an evening when the band is playing and it is fantastic. Such good energy and you still get served at the bar quickly upstairs. Myself and a group of girls had an issue over the weekend with an inappropriate male. I raised my issue with the staff who then promptly resolved the issue and took it seriously, which was really reassuring. Will definitely go here again on a night out and would highly recommend it!

Sarah Collins

Great food. Friendly staff. Gluten free options.

I have had mixed experiences. Half of the time I've had an incredible gluten free pizza, the other half it was thin and rock hard. If the experience was more consistent, the high price would be justified, but unfortunately it's a gamble every time I order

Chesca Doyle

Patrick was absolutely amazing as a waiter!!! Everyone was so helpful and attentive and they knew everything about my coeliac and eating gluten free so I felt incredibly safe. Absolutely would come back. 10/10.

Johanna Knaapi

My husband and I really enjoyed our time here. Food was delicious (they do really good gluten free pizza too), atmosphere lovely and service spot on! Alejandro was fantastic. We really enjoyed our time and prices were also good. We'll be back next time we're in Manchester.

Stephen Wilson

Lots of variety although more southern European than particularly Greek. Misleading indications of Gluten Free - needed to ask for allergens list and even then it took a conversation with the patient waitress to find something GF. No Gluten Free bread. Rice is only available mixed with pasta so not GF. No separate fryer for chips so not GF. So had to eat Patatas Bravas / Espinicas.

Kelvin Barron

Best gluten free pizza have ever tried! Super friendly staff + atmosphere. Loved the whole informal relaxed vibe yet attentive service!

Jess C

great ceoliac friendly options, however fries are cooked in the same fryer as other items from the menu they aren't gluten free so just be careful with that 😊

Randi Stebbins

I booked htis for my birthday dinner because they had oysters (which were excellent) and gluten free past options. Besides the oysters, everything besides the oysters was pretty meh, to be honest. The steak my partner ordered was over cooked. The pizza my son ordered was under cooked, and my pasta was good, but nothing I could not have made myself. The chocolate truffles at the end were also very good. Plus, they make sure to route you through the bar before seating you, so you stat drinking early. The service was fine, but it was chaotic and loud.

Magic Frank

Lovely atmosphere. Comprehensive menu with plenty of choice for gluten free. Very friendly staff. Will be back 😀

James Wickham

Had another brilliant meal tonight. If anything the place is getting better. Excellent gluten free options & the friendliest welcome. I love it.

Bella Jones

Lovely place, great food & atmosphere ! really accommodating to vegan & gluten free people :) thank you Courtney you were amazing <3

Alanah Moulsdale

They do a gluten free Sunday roast! They have good knowledge of allergens and coeliac disease.

daniel docherty

Great service, I’m a coeliac and they provide a good menu. The staff are well trained either gluten free and are thorough.

Saskia

my favourite place for a drink in manchester - lovely staff, fab vibes, and AMAZING happy hour! only thing i could ask for is some gluten free options… but even without them it’s perfect

Joe Hammonds

Absolutely delicious gluten free food that's tasty healthy and very reasonably priced. Rang up the restaurant to confirm our order was gluten free and they happily reassured us it was. Eaten here plenty of times now and will always highly recommend!

Diane Badcock

A lovely night All staff very friendly Elliot and Hannah looked after us Perfect hosts The food was amazing My gluten free was perfect Especially my desert Thank you too all the staff Especially my happy birthday grandma sign We will be back Thanks to all the staff

Alison Guy

Excellent steak and was really good with me having gluten free intolerance thank you

Sam Allan

Always an experience. We have never had a bad meal here. This local eatery is our favourite restaurant to attend when we are HUNGRY. Fantastic for Callum who is celiac as they have lots of options and take his autoimmune disease incredibly seriously, in which he has never been glutened. Food is delicious and staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Drinks are lovely as well, including the virgin cocktails!

Alanah Moulsdale

Haven’t had food here, but if you’re looking for gluten free beer, you’ll get some at here. It’s really nice beer too, not like the ones you get in the supermarket.

Kevin Jackson

So good. The food is high quality, cooked beautifully and plentiful. Definitely good value for money (which can be hard to find now adays). And the cheese bread is amazing and gluten-free for my fellow sufferers. And I enjoyed my Caipirinha. 👌

Thomas Barrett

Came here for a birthday dinner. Place is spacious with a very nice ambience. The drinks menu has quite the variety of cocktails, I can happily recommend the Dark Cherry Cosmo and the Passion fruit Mojito. We had mains and desserts. Most upper £10s to low £20s with streak obviously pricier. I got the swordfish and it was delicious! Very good value for your money. Dessert was a Spiced Pear and Almond Tart which was also delightful. There is a decent selection of Gluten Free options and some vegetarian/vegan options. Slight wait on the main meal but it was somewhat busy and they were very apologetic. The car park is a little small so street parking might be needed. I would highly recommend for a fancy dinner/date night or even just a couple of cocktails at the bar. Will be coming back!

Heidi Strickland-Clark

Fabulous pizza, offering gluten free choices. Had a great evening. Highly recommended.

Theresa Allcock

Thanks to Aaron for taking time out to check whether the ‘Sea you later’ was gluten free and making us a drink in the Swiftie glasses !!

ROOP SAGAR

Amazing beer and wonderful pizza. You can buy big single slices for £3 approx and huge 22". Beers are delicious. Pomona pale is wonderful highly recommend that. The common IPA is good crisp beer. It's gluten free too!!

Ellie S

Excellent gluten free options from understanding and well trained staff - nice atmosphere, gluten free beer on tap available too. Highly recommended

Adam Jones

Staff were friendly and helped us choose drinks from the menu. The gluten free pilsner was great, and thouroughly recommend Manchester Union lager. Food came quickly and was delicious. Not cheap as it was £60 for the two of us, but definitely worth the money.

Irene Mayers

Got a gift voucher from our daughter we went expecting to add too but we were very impressed with the prices fir a 5 star experience it was great value for money the food was delicious and very tasty We had the a la carte menu starter main and dessert and 3 cocktails The service was excellent very attentive but not always in your face explained every dish that was brought I had plenty of choice being gluten intolerant would definitely recommend

Bridget Lynn

Went as a party of 6 and took my dog as was advertised as dog friendly. Very small restaurant which is also very loud so was a struggle to have a conversation over the loud music. Staff were lovely and accommodating making up a special mocktail upon request. Food was great! Altough the tacos were advertised as gluten free and upon confirming they were gluten free when they arrived a member of my party told they were not. However the staff member apologies and chef swiftly made some gluten free tacos. Excellent service. A place for small quick dinners and not suitable for larger dogs due to it being very cramped (I have a german shepherd and struggled with room for him) would visit again but with a smaller party and no dog

Kirsty Jones

Held my husbands 40th birthday party here. We hired the downstairs area for the cost of a drinks package. Charis helped me organise the whole thing and was really responsive with any dietary questions. We had a DJ come in and they were really clear about the rules and kept a space clear for him. We had a great night. The staff were really friendly and keen to make sure we had a good time. Even bringing down the drinks when we didn't have enough hands. We had food from the PO Boys at £12pp, which was delicious, they were so coinciencous, making sure that everyone was catered for and doing a brilliant gluten free plate for me. There was so much food, lots of sandwiches and chips, loads leftover. All in the cost was £25pp including the drinks pacakge and food. Would definitely use this bar again.

Lucy Spencer

The best flat white in Manchester with a selection of delicious cakes - most of them gluten-free - and the most incredible customer service I've ever experienced in my life!! A MUST VISIT!

Heather Tarpey-Lacey

Lovely little place with amazing roast dinner. I'm gluten free so couldn't have the yorkies but everything else was amazing! Highly recommend the roast pork: best I've had in years. Also dog friendly and a cool little place

Tyler Clacey

Great food, music, coffee and gluten free options! 👌🏽

Helen Taylor-O'Brien

Enjoyed the most delightful lunch. Wonderful hospitality. Fantastic food (no problems at all catering for my gluten free diet). Great value for money. Very much looking forward to visiting again!

icap cappy

Service is poor as they’re always so full but the atmosphere is great and food is even better. Great for gluten free / celiacs.

Antonis Porpodas

Excellent Gluten Free pizza ! Amazing selection of craft beers, worth a visit

Katie Forrester

Overpriced. However it's a beautiful pub and the food was delicious. The waiter was also great at talking through gluten-free alternatives. Xmas decorations look like they're from B&M

Vivianne Carvalho

I really only go to Mowgli and the cocktail bar in the middle and I absolutely love both. Mowgli has a great selection of food including vegetarian and gluten free options and the cocktail bar has 2 for 1; cocktail all day everyday. What is not to like about them. A bit pricey, but it is the centre of Manchester.

Peter Mitchell

Great food . So helpful and knowledgeable about gluten free diet.Staff very friendly . Good value .

Lea Shaughnessy

Great spot for a quiet working coffee or post work spritz, really does it all. The lunch is fab and can do sandwiches on gluten free bread (win). Above all the staff are so friendly, always greeted with a smile and it makes my day!
