Top 25 Gluten-Free Spots for Bread Lovers in Edinburgh

Claire Graham

Lovely and amazing selection but wow, were they sweet, even my kids didn’t eat much. Was gutted to miss the doughnuts, apparently you have to get there early. The sausage rolls were amazing, closest thing I’ve had to a normal one in 20years plus.

Super friendly service, very delicious sandwiches, most dishes available gf. Gluten free. Also a quiter place, a bit out of the touristic zones. We have been here every day we spend in edinburgh! ... okay, 2 days, so only twice, but still !

Erin Whalen

Unfortunately I just ate there and got glutened by their food. The poutine even though they said it was Celiac safe unfortunately was not.

Martin Barnes

Great gluten free menu

Jessie

Stopped in for a quick bite before a day of exploring and we’re glad we did! Delicious and filling comfort food. Several gluten free and/or veggie options. Friendly service and pretty quick considering how busy the place was. Always a great location. All around very pleased!

A hyped up place on lots of GF/DF Edinburgh blogs. The staff were friendly and accommodating, Coffe was good, but sadly not a great review from me. Party of 4, prebooked. We arrived hoping for some yummy or interesting breakfasts as the menu seemed to promise. Their gluten free options were limited and the bread served was horrendous quality, not even toasted or buttered?! We paid between £11 and £17 a head. The food was mediocre at best. Would've liked to try the french toast as that looked and smelt amazing!...but it is only available with dairy. Poached eggs tasted of vinegar. I would not recommend the items we chose: za'atar spiced scrambled eggs on toast with spicy hollandaise, fresh coriander & jalapeno salsa - very meh and surprisingly flavourless. poached eggs on toast, + mushrooms + gf bread - tiny mushrooms grilled into oblivion, possibly the worst gf bread ever, untoasted and unbuttered. hummus on sourdough toast with cherry tomatoes, pickled shallots, za'atar, salda verde, capers & crispy chickpeas - the most interesting of all that we ordered, but really needed more salt! Anyone else of hummus being the go-to for vegans?

Victor Desmet

Would certainly recommend this place! Amazing for breakfast and brunch/lunch. I had the Scottish salmon toast, and my gluten intolerant and dairy free friend had the best pancakes. There were a lot of other Gluten free options available! Sweet staff and quick service even though it was quite busy!

Will proactively ask about allergies etc. Felt very well taken care of. Food tasted amazing

Stacy Heller

We were in the neighborhood doing some shopping and one of the shoppes mentioned Côte. It was nearby and we walked in during a busy lunch time. The accommodated us very nicely considering we didn’t have a reservation. I adore French food but never get to go when dining with my daughter who is gluten and dairy free. However, they had so many items to choose from for her. The food was outstanding!!! Cannot wait to go back.

Natalia Fernandez Caja

The food is incredible, you can tell they are Italian. They have gluten-free pasta options although there isn't much to choose from. It comes in a VERY small quantity for the price, but it is very very delicious for a treat-meal.

Meriel Graham

Fantastic breakfast. Had the gluten free option of the full breakfast. Would highly recommend!

Kane Sainsbury

We came here for the final breakfast of a mini break. We were sent over from scran who recommended Hula for allergens. The breakfasts were overpriced and painfully mediocre. I massively resented paying £40 for 2 blah coffees, and 2 plates of avocado toast, one of which was on the crapest gluten free bread available. Sorry Hula, maybe we ordered wrong but really not worth it.

Elena

Tasty lunch with high quality ingredients! The staff was very kind and available for clarifications. I confirm that they have a menu with gluten free options and are very careful about contamination. Central location, reservations recommended because it is a highly sought-after restaurant! You can choose meat or fish courses and interesting typical Scottish dishes

Toria Petrie-Armstrong

Amazing service from the minute we arrived and even a joke with one of the servers as we were leaving 😊 The food options are varied and I did have slight food envy of the table beside me. However my food was amazing, perfect flavour and good quantities. One of friends is a coaliac and there is a separate gluten free menu and they have separate cooking utensils etc in the kitchen to make sure there is no contamination. My other friend is a vegetarian and she liked that there are vegetarian options and vegan options. All in, this is one of my favourite places to eat in Edinburgh

Richard Coffey

Very nice dining atmosphere at this venue and there was an acoustic music gig as well on Halloween. There's a gluten free menu too which is great. Overall, the service was very friendly, especially from Mallory the waitress who served me. The shop could be stocked with a wider variety of souvenir items though.

Adrián Hurtado

What a lovely place! Great fopd, very very tasted. The soap tasted very good and the mushroom burger was delicious. They have gluten free options.

Daniel Mcshane

very nice and cosy, delicious sandwiches! I'm gluten free, and both their gf bagels and their soups were amazing!

Cheryl Clarke

Had lunch here, food very nice. Massive portions and excellent gluten free choices. We had the mussels and fish and chip and they were delicious. Cosy atmosphere in the back, with a little fire.

Sarolta Pudney

Delicious meal and lots of gluten free options as well. The waiter was very knowledgeable about which items on the menu were gluten free and free from cross contamination (shared fryer). Overall we had a delicious meal in a nice atmosphere. Very highly recommend

Corentin

Great place, warm. Very good gluten free option with no cross contamination.

Sarah Whitcombe

Couldn't find direct contact details online, still feeling so rough. I had a meal this afternoon at the fort kinnaird branch. Specifically asked for a gluten free burger. Also had vegan mayo as Diary and Glunten intolerant. I thoroughly enjoyed my food at the time believing I had be given the dietary requirements I asked for .. with 20mins of leaving the restaurant. I have ended up with the most horrendous stomach cramps and bowels usually related to if I have eaten Glunten. I believe that this has been the case on this occasion. Allergens are there for a reason. Safe to say I will not be coming back to eat again. I would also like contact details to arrange a refund. I am just hoping my new medication helps ease my stomach and I won't need medical assistance.

Katia M

Freshly prepared tasty food, gluten free, dairy free and vegan option. Good choice of non-alcoholic drinks including a lovely iced matcha, home made sodas in various flavours, hot chocolate and the usual coffee drinks

H Oh

I was hungover and underslept. They looked after me very well. Also they have gluten free bread options for sandwiches, and smoothies. Will be back.

Abigail Perkins

Pictured is the G.O.A.T. and Ham & cheese savoury crêpes. We were walking around Edinburgh and were looking for a last minute breakfast spot that offered gluten free options. Staff was very friendly and the crepes were yummy.

j kat

Lovely smoothie, gluten free Victoria sponge!! The young man working at the counter was lovely 🥰

Ursula Dodunski

Really disappointing experience. Made a booking for a large group for dinner and drinks. Limited space available despite communicating the group size. Very poor service. Lots of miscommunication from the servers, some saying we can order food from the restaurant and bar and some only saying bar. GF guest told they were out of all snacks and that they don’t do gluten free options only to be then told if you come back in 5-10 we may be able to help you. Long waits for drinks and probably the worst expresso martini. Do not recommend.

Dave Tucker

Really nice pub with good atmosphere and service. Menu was massively reduced when we visited, far less choice and gluten free options which was disappointing not to be told in advance.

Dean McDonough

Gluten free options appear to be a chore for this particular store.

Ian Birnbaum

Some other reviews were incorrect, there are no gluten free options here. The food was good, though!

Jasmine Duschletta

Gluten free options, Gluten free Burger Buns, Cheesecake

Aneesha Anand

This wonderful wee retro cafe is definitely my favourite. They offer excellent gluten free options including lots of cakes, the best matcha lattes and fantastic food, and the staff are so warm and lovely - always the obvious choice for weekend brunches with my friends/ anyone visiting me. Highly recommend!

Bailey Wilson

My husband go us sandwiches here before our flight. I’m gluten free, dairy free, and pescatarian and they had great options! The funny part: the gluten free bread was so amazing I had to call to make sure I received the right bread!! They did write GF on the package, but it did not taste like the crumbly tiny breads we usually get. I got avocado, tomato, and spinach with the harissa mayo and it really hit the spot! My husband got ham and Brie on a poppy seed roll, which he really enjoyed as well. 10/10

Olga Wojtas

There are delicious bagels to suit every taste at this great new Edinburgh cafe. It has the lovely atmosphere Edinburgh has come to expect from charming French restaurateurs Marion and Mathias Briard, with quirky decor and a warm welcome. There are loads of exciting fillings for the different types of bagel which include poppy seed, sesame, everything, plain, gluten-free and sweet. We had a savoury bagel and a sweeet bagel, and I had a vanilla milkshake while my husband had a coffee, which he really enjoyed. We sat in, but it's also obviously very popular for takeaway.

Ben Dandelion

Great gluten free options with very friendly service and a very comfortable atmosphere. Lovely food.

Minal Kamat

We went there in the afternoon for a light lunch and were pleasantly surprised to see the menu options. There were vegetarian, vegan, gluten free option along with a wide variety of drinks. The owner was very friendly and provided excellent service. Must visit to try some authentic Spanish Empanadas!

Sarah Jayne Marshall

Lovely friendly staff. Good selection of gluten free and dairy alternative at no extra cost. Really enjoyed my gluten free, bacon and Brie panini!

Delbert Dunlap

Vernell Holbrook

Debs Massey

Gluten free canoli was lovely, although isn't completely separate from gluten products - they did warn me of this.

Owain Williams

This place makes the best wraps and salad boxes. Friday is the best, macaroni and pulled pork wraps. The gluten free salted caramel brownies are also brilliant.

Adrian Burrow

Dario Newhouse

The staff were extremely accommodating. My partner has coeliac disease and they reassured her that it was safe for her to eat here. They provided her with plenty of options that she could enjoy, rather than focusing on what she couldn't have. The service was quick and friendly. We will definitely be returning.
