Top 15 Gluten-Free Bakeries to Explore in Duluth

Absolutely wonderful experience overall. They have plenty of options for most, including vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free (vegan/gluten free) being hard to find. The atmosphere and view of the lake were great as well. Very clean, nice bathrooms, friendly staff, book adoption for small price, and a dietary restriction diverse pastry selection too! We will definitely be coming back.

We just visited on our vacation to the North Shore. We were blown away by this great pizza restaurant! We started with the garlic cheese toast. I believe it had cilantro on top which was delicious. There was a hearty serving of marinara included, and it was only $1 to add another marinara. My daughter ordered the spinach salad - it had a great balance of savory and sweet, and was a good-sized portion. I ordered the Hulapeño pizza. I don't like pineapple on pizza, so I requested it removed, however when it showed up at the table it was included. I was really hungry from a full day of hiking, and didn't want to wait for another pizza to be made. It was so delicious with the pineapple! The real star, though, was the Hot Honey - I couldn't get enough of it! Who thought that would be great with pizza?? Such a delicious combo!! I have a vegetarian son, and we were astounded by all of the vegetarian options available! Vegan bacon, sausage, pepperoni, and more. Also there were vegan cheese available and gluten-free options. I felt that the variety was more than any restaurant in the much larger city we're from! The atmosphere inside was great. Lots of outstanding local art on the walls to enjoy and available for purchase. A really cool avocado table for big groups. And you can watch them toss pizza crust while you're sitting at a table, which is always fun. The area outside was the only place I felt a little unsafe on our travels, and I skirted the kids away after one Pokemon Go battle. This restaurant is definitely on my list when we return to Duluth!

We were looking for a breakfast place as we drove up to Duluth early and this place came up with a 4.8 star rating. All I can say is that it deserves that rating. Great service and food. I loved that the menu labeled gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan options! The woman serving us was super awesome and between her and other servers they made sure our coffee and water were filled when they got low. It's rare finding places this good, especially on the fly.

BEST experience, all the way around! Brisket was flavorful and DELICIOUS; dipping sauce options were varied, house-made, and tasty; my dietary-delicate husband was able to get a phenomenal burger on a gluten-free bun; sides were unique and mouthwatering (I tried the hush puppies, pecan-topped sweet potatoes, and my husband's fries); and the drinks were excellent - SO MANY bourbon options! We requested to sit on the patio. It was peaceful and the atmosphere was stellar. I cannot recommend this place enough. If I am ever in Duluth again, I'm going back to try the pulled pork. My only complaint is that it said on the menu that gluten-free buns would not be an additional charge, but they did charge us a few dollars extra for it. I think because we told them not to worry about cross-contamination? Lucky for them, everything else was 6/5 stars.

The Mystery Man

I am staying in the Duluth, MN area for approximately 4 months. I'm a vegetarian and immediately started looking for any vegan/vegetarian restaurants in the area. I located Juice Pharm, and decided to try them. So, I placed an order online with this business on 5/6/2025 in the evening to be picked up the morning of 5/7/2025 @ 10:30am as a carry out (that is why I didn't rate the Atmosphere). Following are my reasons for the pour ratings: 1) I placed my order online so I wouldn’t have to wait in line to place an order. However, I still had to wait in line to pick up my order for walk-in people to place their order. Why??? I placed my order the day before, fully paid for with a tip and I still had to wait in line for people who were just placing their orders. This seems unfair to me. This business needs a dedicated an area for people who placed their orders online to pick up their order without having to wait inline. 2) The following is a direct quote from their website: "Juice Pharm is a cafe and juice bar in Downtown Duluth dedicated to serving healthy, fresh-made and locally-sourced food and drinks. Our 100% plant-based and gluten free menu focuses on cold-pressed juices, refreshing smoothies, fruit-filled açaí bowls and globally-inspired specialty foods.” My personal health goal is to try to eliminate add sugar from all the foods I eat. I incorrectly assumed this business would also pursue such a goal for the menu items they offer their customers. I ordered the following as a carryout order: I ordered a Acai Bowl specifically their Blue Majik Bowl-Large (24oz) with added Cashew Butter (the Cashew Butter was stuck to the lid of the container my order was placed in) , Extra Granola, and Add-on Blueberries. After I started eating it I could tell it was loaded with add sugar-so I broke my dietary goal-not intentionally. The base of Acai Bowls are made from acai berry puree. This business buys commercially made purees for their Acai Bowls and these contain rather high amounts of added sugar. This business doesn't disclose added sugar amounts for their menu items. I actually contacted this business through their website via email on 5/7/2025 @ 4:36pm with the above concerns and with the following questions: 1) Which of the items in my online order had added sugar and how much? 2) Do all of your Acai Bowls have added sugar, and how much? 3) Does your Granola have added sugar, how much? 3) Do you have any menu item available for online ordering and carryout pickup that have “NO ADDED SUGAR”? If you do, please list them (implying provide me a list). The business never replied to my email. If they would have replied, I probably wouldn't have written this negative review. This type of information would be critical to any people with diabetes. I would like to support this local business if they would identify items on their menu that have no or very small amounts of added sugar. Beware, If you want to limit the consumption of added sugar avoid Juice Pharm's Acai Bowls. I don't know if any other of Juice Pharm's menu items also have high amounts of add sugar.

One of the best restaurants in Duluth if you don’t want to spend a lot of money but do want good food and have a good time. It gets busy during dinner time like most places and they have music every night so if you aren’t into how loud it gets it’s still worth it to order takeout, which on Saturday you have to do in person. I recommend avoid using a car to get there since parking is very limited in the area when it is busy. They have a lot of different food options so if you need vegetarian, vegan, or gluten free they can accommodate you. Honestly I don’t think they have a single bad item on the menu.

A nice spot in the heart of Canal Park. Patio seating and indoor seating, with sizable dining space. They have a huge selection of delicious sandwiches and can accommodate for gluten free customers with gluten free bread and salads. The food is so amazingly good! A deli is also available to take home their in house smoked fish. They also have live music.

I have severe celiac and I safely ate delicious food here! My server was kind and knowledgeable. I was told by my partner and brother that the gluten food was also delicious.

Great food, great service, and great atmosphere! I would recommend the smaller portion sizes unless you’d like two meals! Our server Rich gave great suggestions, was incredibly friendly, and attentive. When we arrived on a weeknight, the wait was about 20 minutes (no reservations). Handicap accessible, small parking lot out front, and options for dietary restrictions (gluten & dairy). Overall a great experience!
