Top 6 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Enjoy in Central Vancouver

Lily Kane

100% GF Lots of options Staff really nice

Ivo S

So many amazing GF options - almost 90% of the menu is naturally or can be made GF!

Not all who wander are lost.

My travel partner and I each had a gluten-free free lamborghini with salad. Fresh ingredients, meat had nice seasonings, and a good flat bread (gf "bun"). They earn a double tasty and a recommendation to all GF eaters out there. Already planning a return visit when back in Vancouver in a few weeks.

In heaven. Most items are or can be made safe for celiac. Had the Yum Bowl…sooooo good. The best part though? GLUTEN FREE ONION RINGS. They were just incredible. If you’re able, come down and chow down. It’s definitely worth it.

Came here for our anniversary dinner, as a celiac I usually avoid eating out Italian as the pasta substitute js subpar, that was not the case here. The best gluten free pasta I’ve ever had and most appies and all deserts were gluten free. My gluten eating husband also said it was the best pasta he’s ever had. Was nice to have a desert option that was not a flourless chocolate cake, highly recommend the olive oil cake! The service was really good and they were very knowledgeable about celiac. Would highly recommend!

gluten friendly options and can accommodate celiac

Lindsay O'Grady

Gluten-Free pancakes with many options for toppings. Nice renovated atmosphere and friendly knowledgeable staff.

Matt Schmitt

Awesome gluten free options!

Анна Нікіфорова

That is a very nice place, with a lot of gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options. I got the drink on the house and it was delicious and refreshing lemonade. Didn’t get the chance to ask a servers name, but he was delightful and very friendly. The food was well seasoned and really tasty. I also asked about the weight of lamb to count the proteins and they provided that to me. I would rate it 6 stars if I could.

Pretty good portion on the dosas if you get their Dosa of the day. I like the lamb on Tuesdays. Pretty fast at in-between times (non-dinner time) when they are quite empty. The dosa is probably gluten-friendly but you might want to ask if other ingredients inside it are gluten-friendly too.

Lindsey Johnston

Had a great first experience here today. They are especially accommodating for Gluten free options.

Server was wonderful - very knowledgeable about the menu and the wines. I got a gluten free pizza that was pretty terrible, probably the worst one I've gotten in a restaurant actually- the crust was thin and chewy, not in a good way; it was like a frozen pizza. The ceaser salad had polenta croutons that were good but there was only like 4 of them total. I felt safe as a celiac and there was lots of GF stuff on the menu to try, but definitely avoid the pizza. (If you want good GF pizza in the area go across the street to Per Se, it's the best I've ever had!) I would come back to try the other options though.

Darragh Greaney

Couldn’t recommend this place more. Staff were honestly amazing. Modified the menu for celiac and honestly was so so tasty. Hats off to the chefs! Special thanks to Kat, Paige and Darren. They were so welcoming and nice, one of best experiences we’ve had to date in Vancouver. Thank you all 🎉

Shachar Tsafon

Best brunch in Van imo. Place is so nice, the staff inviting, the food excellent. Big portions and everything was tasty. They have a fantastic gluten free bread, which is always a plus. Totally recommend!

Lauren P

Y'all!! I've been getting delivery for a while from here, but finally went in to eat the other day. The staff were all friendly. I would've given 5 stars to the delivery quality alone, but would give 6 stars for the fresh stuff. The machetes are phenomenal. ¡Perfecto! And the yuca fries... *Drools As a celiac, it's nice that most things are gluten free, and as I've never felt sick from eating here, it's one of my safe go-to restaurants. If you're in the area, I would 100% recommend this place, especially if you eat gluten-free (or even have dairy restrictions too, they can take care of you).

Shilpa Parveen

They have REAAALLY good Vegan and Gluten Friendly donuts! 😭🫶🏻I’m so glad.

Kiki is the best in biz very careful when it comes to allergy’s celiacs welcome !

chloe kf

Amazing service, ambiance & food! Accommodated gluten free so well! Very cozy! Great drinks also!

Jemma Lee

Had the BLT bagel it was stacked with bacon and great value, DELICIOUS! Loved the mayo/sauces and guac it had on it! Espresso drinks have minimal sweetness which is nice. Quite impressed with the food and drink I enjoyed here today. Also loved the gluten free options. The service was wonderful. Looking forward to summer mornings on the patio with my dogs. Will definitely be back again and again!

SYDNEY HOLMES

super friendly server (Helena) who was very attentive and helpful. very helpful with gluten free food options

Georgiy Trucking LLC georgiy yatsenko

This is the best bakery in Vancouver with lot of great choices for pastries and even gluten free desserts Awesome place to get your sweets.

Heather Kastelan

Service from Carolina was fantastic! She had wonderful recommendations, we could tell she knew the menu well and she was able to confirm gluten free options as well without hesitation. Space was lovely and the vegetarian/vegan options were interesting and tasty, will return, thank you Mila Team!

Alyssa Clayton

Tom was amazing. I have celiac disease and he answered all my questions, advised me what to avoid and double checked with the chef to make sure every thing was safe. Felt very comfortable eating here, will definitely go back. Great service and great food

Stephanie Brown

Good place! Has gluten free options. Bread was quite dry. I got the express burrata and the eggplant Parmesan with gluten free penne. Waitress made sure to check with chef and made good suggestions.

abby scott

kiona was our server on a date night and we have nothing but amazing things to say about her!! She was sooooo accommodating to our gluten allergy and just all around a friendly, positive, and helpful person. I would come back JUST to have Kiona as my server.

Ashley Alexis

Great spot for breakfast. Portions are massive! The food was good and Susan’s service was excellent! One thing to note is there are no gluten free hashbrowns or potatoes. Sad times for me.

Sanjana Lealh

We ordered a gluten-free dessert, but it contained gluten, causing my friend to become very ill. If you have a gluten allergy, please avoid eating here.

Sukhsimar Dhaliwal

This place is a must visit. Amazing customer service, delicious food with gluten free and vegan options. They have something for everyone. We tried the french toast, tapioca wrap and pancakes. The drinks were amazing too.

Tanja S.

This was our first time and came highly recommended from a local, who comes often. The wait was over an hour but well worth it! All our meals were excellent and they accommodated well for gluten free needs. The orange hummus was incredible. Recommended!

Susan English-Thompson

On a vacation/work trip recently we had a late dinner at Coast restaurant. We were lucky to be able to sit outside thanks to the beautiful evening and the added comfort of there heaters. I have celiac disease, so always have to be extra careful when eating out. I was pleasantly surprised by the number of options I had and our waitress was amazing! Shout out to Sam for guiding me through all my options to keep me safe. She was super careful to triple check with the chef to make sure I had a very good and safe experience. Her charm, knowledge of the food and pleasant personality, elevated our experience.

Gluten Free Brad

Employee was extremely helpful when I needed a to grab a gluten free, celiac-friendly breakfast before work. Enjoyed a delicious açai bowl + a prepackaged cookie. Thank you!

Shauna Hunze

Delicious food, good portion sizes, and great service. Gluten free options as well! I highly recommend 'the mess' with no sausage (double one of the other meats) if you can't have gluten.

Nona Isenhart

Best coffee I have had in Vancouver so far, also tasty baked goods (including gluten-free treats!)

Kevin Wang

Good soups, and good bowls. Their market sides are pretty good, and they have a rotating selection of them with some staples that are always there. Price is reasonable for downtown area. They taste good, and can easily accomodate for vegan/gluten free options! Their sandwiches are also supposedly great, but I've never been tempted to move away from soups or bowls to give them a try :)

Shahdad Samimi

Great Smoked Salmon Benedict for brunch. The coffee wasn't the best but they were able to accommodate gluten-free options. Substitute bread for more potatoes but they can't guarantee cross contamination it seemed like so if you are severely celiac just consider that.

Midori Telles-Langdon

Best Thai in the city, and celiac safe gluten free items. Try the paneng curry!

Janjan

Very bright and cheerful neighborhood spot. Lots of goodies , gluten free too...

Billy Muir

Many gluten-free options available and the smoothies are satisfying.

Nikita Crane

Went for happy hour - great cocktails and great GF options. Many things are GF or can be amended, server was super knowledgeable. I had the wings, hummous with a GF flatbread and nachos. Really tasty! And great waterfront views.

Fedora F

My Aunt and I went after visiting the Art Gallery on a Friday and we were so impressed by not only service but the food and prices! We happened to get there for Happy Hour and the items we got (tater tots and sushi) were all lovely and their entire happy hour menu is decently priced! I also had the dinner option of cola braised pork, well done and very tasty! Everything was very fast and our waitress was so accommodating. Aunt also has a dietary restriction for gluten but we were both pleasantly surprised that so many menu items were gluten free so she actually had a variety to choose from :) We ended the night with some tea, the Lavender London Fog I received was one of the best I've ever had! Would absolutely come back again, we hadnt gone out in a long time so this was a wonderful way to end the evening, the vibes were great :) Cheers and all the best to the staff from March 1, they were the best!

Cecile Dubois-Herry

We loved out brunch there, the staff is fantastic and the atmosphere chic & cosy. The eggs Benedict with salmon were accompanied with delicious stacked potatoes and the generous avocado toast had a gluten-free bread option. It was presented scrambled with shredded cheese and a poached egg, I really enjoyed it as well as the mimosa with what felt like real oranges. The prices were very reasonable for that kind of place, in fact we paid as much in more "laid back" cafes, maybe because it's brunch but the service & food quality would definitely be worth a dinner too.

hjalmar martensen

Very friendly Staff and even gluten free Pizza for us :)

Jeff Worth

What a great restaurant! Very cool atmosphere, incredibly friendly staff, and the food was fantastic! A short wait to get in (and I can see why), but using technology for the queue we didn’t have to stand immediately at the door to know when our table was available. Bonus: a gluten-friendly option for my wife at no additional cost (which is almost un-heard of)! Would give it 6/5 stars if I could, will definitely return!

Caleigh P

NOT safe for celiacs. No gluten free waffle iron. Major cross contamination risk

Lucy Li

Tried so many of their pastries from here and they all didn’t disappoint! There’s so much variety all the time for both sweet and savoury foods, for good price as well. Breka also has a lot of variety for gluten free and vegan options as well. I love how they’re open 24 hours because not many dessert places in vancouver open past 12 so Breka has been a go to for my friends and I. I highly recommend the mango coconut cake!!

Danielle Wardstrom

Fantastic cafe, delicious latte and gluten free option. Thank you!

Colin Rooke

Really great food and the people are so nice. Best gluten free English Muffins according to my wife.

Mike Gunn

Had a few meals here during our stay in Vancouver, breakfast, lunch and dinner. Overall food was excellent and had gluten-free options for my partner who is intolerant. Service was excellent everytime we ate there.

Ron Edgar

We had a great meal with amazing service. the rib eyes were cooked perfectly and they were able to accommodate a gluten allergy with a variety of options. Highly recommended!
