Top 20 Gluten-Free Bars to Experience in Albany

Lisa Beshay

This was the BEST meal I have had out in as long as I can remember. My partner is a chef and he and I have a hard time finding places to eat where we feel like it’s worth our time an money. This place is absolutely worth it! I had a smile on my face with every single bite I took. It was seriously so amazing. They off we amazing gluten free and vegetarian/vegan options, as well. Their gluten free pita was delicious and everything was perfectly seasoned, cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. Our server, Vedat was charismatic, kind, knowledgeable and just wonderful. We will be back again and again, and soon! I have already recommended this place to friends and family, and you should too!

We love Savoy Taproom!! We always make a point to stop in for dinner whenever we're in the neighborhood. This is a fantastic gem for gluten free/dietary restriction folks, as there is a dedicated gluten free fryer AND most breaded/fried items are breaded in non-gluten containing batters! This is one of the only places I can get a fried chicken sandwich, fries, fried cheese curds, etc. since I've gone gluten free. Further, the craft cocktails are exquisite, the staff knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind, and the ambience great for evening/weekend dining. I can't think of a more perfect place to celebrate date night, get togethers with close friends, or any special occasions.

Food was great. Portions large. Prices were reasonable. Service was wonderful. Very patient with our large group. Gluten free and vegetarian options clearly labeled.

The food was delicious and plentiful. The wait time wasn't too long. The waitress was great. My only gripe is they should just have a separated menu section for the gluten-free items.

Food is very eclectic and delicious. Service is top notch. We drive over an hour to eat here. Worth it, especially the gluten free options.

So happy we tried this place. I searched good gluten free food in Albany and it came up and it didn't disappoint. A great date night spot, we sat at the bar and it was cozy. The chef accommodated my gluten allergy and make a GF Chicken Marsala dish which was amazing. You can just tell it was made from scratch, even the sauce. So tasty! Definitely different than a popular chain restaurant where I normally get my Chicken Marsala dish. My boyfriend got a fish dish and said it tasted phenomenal. We both got lemon inspired drinks. The Limoncello martini was divine! We will be back, highly recommend.

Great staff and very accommodating to gluten free diets! A little on the pricey side but well worth it for the amazing taste and portion sizes!!

We haven't been here in about 2 years or so. Somehow, they seemed to have lost their vibe. Maybe it's because Mark Graydon always seemed to be there tending bar when we stopped in. My wife liked a gluten free beer that they had, and Mark always remembered even though we only stopped in every month or so. I do like the new system for ordering food. The quality of food was very good though.

I've been to the newly opened Washington Tavern three times now and have had a great experience every time! The cocktails were great, tons of beers on tap, and the food was SO good! They were also extremely accommodating of our dietary restrictions, including gluten free, dairy free, and soy free. The service was friendly and attentive, the vibe is great, and I'm already planning to go back!

This is an Awesome spot for Sushi, Ramen, and Specially the fried rice! Finally stopped in after passing by many times while at the mall and always was tempted to look at the menu and once I seen that they had Gluten Free noodles, I was guaranteed to try it eventually. I got a spicy tuna roll and my fiancé got a shrimp tempura roll, both were So Good and very well made! Decent wasabi as well! Then we shared a shrimp fried rice and our Ramen bowls came out just after the rice. The shrimp fried rice was Absolutely the best! The smell, the taste just blew us away. Every bite was pure happiness! The ramen bowls were nice and big and presented beautifully! It was my fiancé’s first time trying ramen and she fell in love first sip of the broth. It Was Excellent! Ella our server did an outstanding job and the manager I believe gave us some great recommendations as well! We are excited to come back for me delicious food!

All of the food was delicious! The menu offered a variety of options to choose from. All of the food was prepared fresh with lots of flavor. Vegan and gluten-free options are also available. Bring your friends and check it out. Can't wait to go back!

Bill Maas

Very nice place to try some different kinds of mead. Very clean and staff very polite. Was my 1st time here. The bartender Ray was very helpful to tell me about all the different types of drinks. I must have tried 5 or 6 different types. There were two or three I really liked. I will be back to try some more again for sure.. nice to know that they have gluten free drinks for the people that can not have gluten.

Hannah Sandiford

Always awesome food and drinks! Highly recommended for others with celiac's disease! Menu always includes gluten free options and I've never gotten sick after eating there.

Rachel Savageau

The food is always delicious here. The black and blue filet is outrageous. I only wish they had some gluten free desserts like creme brulee!

Stacey Morris

My husband and I had a wonderful meal here. As always, you are treated like royalty in their opulent dining room. Our appetizers of Bahkmi noodles and ricotta gnocchi were delicious, as were our entrées of duck and scallops. And bonus: Best gluten-free rolls I've ever had anywhere! 💫🤸💫 The service was extremely attentive and this place does food as well as they do hospitality, Yono's GETS it! 💜

Came twice over the weekend, needless to say it was amazing, especially the gluten-free pizza ! YUMMY !! Staff is really nice and portion are really generous

Colby Dunn

Went here for drinks and lunch. Being a celiac, I was warned that there is still a chance of cross contamination. I ordered the cauliflower crust pizza, it was cooked on a separate pan in a separate over, which is great! However it was still a premade cauliflower crust. They offered a cider, a seltzer and two different wines which for a brewery isn’t bad!
