Top 10 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Enjoy in Quintana Roo

Ari Apple

Staff are friendly, they offer gluten free and the toppings/flavours are good. I was really excited to come here. However the shop reeks of rotten coconut oil and the doughnuts themselves taste overwhelmingly of it. I think if you can't keep ontop of using fresh oil you need to use something that won't spoil so easily. Especially for the high price they charge. I had hoped to buy a box but I couldn't finish one because of the gone off oil taste :( Edit: I don't mean to imply they re-use oil, but that they are using oil that has gone off/been open too long. They got my donut fresh from the back and it was served hot to me since there were no gluten free flavours I wanted out already, and my partner's normal non-gf donut also tasted of off coconut to him and was from the window display.

We had a lovely breakfast here with delicious gluten free options and Jugo verde and were served by the lovely Anthonia. We loved it so much we came again for dinner and was served by Antandio Quiroz who was so lovely ! I would 100% reccomend

Monica Quijas

Wonderful food, a gluten-free coconut flour burrito,

Karina Codutti

Excellent option for celiacs! They understand what it's all about! A good gluten-free option with the proper precautions!

dani fet

I ate there in person 2 weeks ago it was fantastic!!!! I just received my rappi delivery the chicken sandwich has so much salt I can’t eat it. It’s an overwhelming amount. :( the food was so great the first time as a celiac person I was really excited.

Rara

Gluten-free pasta and pizza. A chic atmosphere and the service is of a high standard👌 Even the chef came to ask how it tasted. Beautiful, authentic atmosphere. It looked like a movie.

Natalia Marin Arribas

The gluten free paradise and also lots of vegan, keto, non dairy options… love it, highly recommend!!!

Emily

Lovely cafe with great food and smoothies and friendly staff, just a bit on the pricey side! Lots of options for vegan and gluten free.

Katie Lambert

Gorgeous restaurant and amazing food! Ate here on my birthday while visiting Playa del Carmen and was so magical and delicious! I have celiac (gluten allergy) and the team was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable on allergies - Highly recommend the tuna steak - it was so delicious! And the restaurant is actually built around a cenote - super cool experience and some of the best food I ate in Mexico!

mariel hernandez

Terrible quality service, the girl at the morning counter wins, with a long face, slow service and not good quality. It's a shame because it was one of the few gluten free stores.

Sophie Castelbou

A pretty garden in the shade of the jungle, smiling and welcoming staff and impeccable service. A healthy and tasty breakfast... and even a delicious gluten free chocolate tart. I recommend 200%

Kalps (k4lps)

Great place, lots of vegan and gluten free options, really recommend the empanadas they are amazing. A word of warning, the coffee wasn’t great, couldn’t drink it, it was really bad !

Jaqueline Gomez Franco

The presentation of the food only does justice to how delicious it is, it has light and well-served options, gluten free and sugar free, it was excellent for us after having dinner with tacos 😅 Highly recommended, delicious, at a good price and friendly

Adrian Popescu

Most of the things on the menu are gluten free. Lots of options to choose from. Portions are quite generous and the taste is great. They even provide coffee refills on the house. So far, my favorite place on the island. Definetly recommend.

Vee K

They have Gluten-free bread!! I had a delicious lunch! soup, sandwich and water of the day (papaya) it was a tasty treat.

Diana Caro

I came here for the Gluten Free pancakes and they didn’t disappoint. They are very buttery and sweet. Best ones I’ve tasted in Tulum. Andres was my waiter and he was very attentive and welcoming. Really great place to work remote and spend the day.

Charly Luna

Absolutely spectacular! Such a fun, friendly, and beautiful atmosphere. Best servive. Such love. MY HEART IS SO FULL! The family feel, the melody and tune of the entire place. The people! The connection. And the safety and cleanliness. I have Celiac and they were very accommodating. I felt so safe to eat. And I ate it all! 😋 Can't wait to be back!

Delicious smoothies

If you’re a real pizza lover, I’d suggest giving this place a miss. We ordered two Diavola pizzas, one on a gluten-free base with vegan cheese and one regular. The gluten-free base came at an additional 100 pesos, which is quite steep, but I was curious to try it. Unfortunately, what arrived was more like a 1mm-thin tostada with a small amount of melted vegan cheese, no tomato sauce, and just four slices of what seemed like very basic salami. It really didn’t resemble a pizza in any way and was sent back straight away. Thankfully, we weren’t charged for it, which I appreciated. As for the regular pizza, it wasn’t much better. It looked like something from a very low-end all-inclusive buffet. The tomato sauce was unusually dark and definitely didn’t taste like San Marzano as advertised. The base was flat, undercooked, and lacked any real flavour or texture. On the plus side, the service was excellent. The waiter was kind, attentive, and very apologetic. I really felt for him, as he did his best in a tough situation. As an Italian who has lived abroad for over 20 years, I’ve had pizza in all kinds of settings and don’t consider myself particularly picky. But sadly, this just didn’t come close to what I’d consider pizza, especially at these prices. Piola used to be great years ago, but something seems to have changed. I won’t be returning.

Jolly is absolutely one of my favorite cafes in Cozumel. The food is always great and the atmosphere is chill and cozy. The staff is always fast and friendly. When I vacation on the island this is always the restaurant I go to first. My favorite is the Eggs Benedict but the avocado toast is a close second. The golden milk is very good and there coffee is made very well. Andy the waitress is always so cheerful and fun! It's a joy getting breakfast here. Their gluten free bread is great!!

Jacob Adams

My son said that the tacos were the best he'd ever had. The food was amazing, and you can't beat the view. We have some picky eaters in our family and my wife can't have gluten because she is celiac. We all loved what we ordered and my wife felt safe eating there because of their clearly marked menu for gluten allergy. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you're in the area.

Emma

We love ziggys!!! We stayed at a nearby hotel and came here for breakfast one day, and ended up coming back every day for the rest of our trip. The restaurant on the beach is amazing and the staff is incredibly nice. We had 3 celiac and 1 nut allergy in our group, and they were able to accommodate us so easily with no issues. All the food was so good!! Some highlights were the pork belly enchiladas, tuna tacos and egg tacos. Thank you to the staff for creating such a beautiful and friendly atmosphere, we will definitely be back!

Ailbhe Whitty

What a spot in bacalar. Was reccomended by numerous people before. Loads of taco filling options. Good for gluten free and veggies! The burritos are quite greasy I’d recommend the tacos more. Great margaritas as well

Theresa Lux

I love this restaurant! Beautiful decor, excellent service and the gluten free menu offered so many options. The Pad Thai chicken was delicious and gluten free. I rarely eat out because of my gluten allergy but I'm so glad I ate (multiple times) at Sasi Thai. The lady playing the saxophone was great. The other people who didn't have any food allergies loved the variety of food and delicious meals.

Cindy Harcha

Very good service, excellent prices. The passion fruit lemonade is delicious. Highly recommended!!! And many gluten-free options. Dessert too, and very delicious. Don't stop coming if you pass through Isla Mujeres.

Gustavo Gonzalez Siaba

Food was great, gluten free options. Place looks really nice. Service from Daniel was excellent

Abel Frecska

Absolutely fun and delicious dinner - the place was totally happening. The food was great and the cocktails were really well balanced. We had an amazing closing night to our stay in Tulum. They also catered to the gluten sensitive guests within our team.

Andrea Wong

My favorite tacos in the world! All made from blue corn so totally fine for gluten free people like me. Order the chicken tinga and chuleta. Also the pan de elote - sweet cornbread. My friend is obsessed with the caramel-y sauce that comes with it on the side (I find it too sweet with it). My vegan friend said the mole taco was the best taco she’s ever had in her life, period. The hibiscus drink is a tad too sugary for me but that’s the case everywhere on the island so I just dilute it a bit. They’re super nice here and food comes out fast! I came here three times in four days the last time I was in Cozumel. Also if you do take out, the food is actually shockingly still pretty hot as they wrap it up really well, which I appreciate.

Justin “Jdsworld” Green

Awesome gluten free and vegan options. My wife has a severe egg allergy and they made a great Vegan Chille Relleno for her. My Conchinita Pibil was perfectly cooked and spiced! Brenda was so kind, quick, and accommodating. Thank you!

Reem Khatib

Great place to sit down and be by the water! No gluten free friendly options sadly. I had to just eat guac and chips.

Gary Chiang

Great service and the mole was the best I’ve ever had in the yucatan. Try the crickets they are not as bad as you might think and make for fun pictures. This is definitely on the expensive side but the atmosphere was well worth it. Check out the small cenote nearby across the street! They were very good with gluten and dairy allergies.

Alaleh Black

They only have two vegan things. One is a porridge and one is a "bowl" which is basically beans at the bottom and chips on top and it's served with two fried dry tortillas. So it's flavorless chips on beans. When I asked for hot sauce they brought me chilli oil. So flavorless spice on top of my flavorless food. But it looked really pretty. So that's why the extra star. I definitely wouldn't eat here if you're gluten free. You'll have to eat 20$ chips. Oh and bottles of water are 4$ so if you ask for tap water they'll pop open another small bottle of water so you'll end up drinking 8$ worth of water in like two sips. I'm literally still thirsty. I'M LITERALLY still thirsty. 😨 Not good for Vegans. Not good for gluten free.

Pat Keenan

Excellent food and patient, attentive service. Laura answered all our questions and we were pleased to know the entire menu, including pasta, is made with corn. Two of us are gluten sensitive so happy to find Maíz Maix! Music was a bit loud but otherwise ok.

Natália Oliveira

I had an excellent experience! I'm celiac and I had 3 meals here, all with great service. At dinner there are usually musicians, there is no cover charge, but it's worth the tip because they are very good!!

Meitar Shechter

We had a very bad experience. When my wife asked for gluten free options because she has Celiac all the waitresses gave her a look like she asks for some weird request and doing that on purpose. They also mixed several of our orders and the service was slow.

Hani Batla

If there is one place in Tulum that one needs to eat at, it is Onyx Tulum. The food is simply incredible! This place is great for people looking for great gluten free options and the staff are so good about ensuring my daughter who has celiac disease has good food to eat. The highlight of the whole amazing meal was Barbara. She is by far the #1 hospitality professional that we had the pleasure of meeting. If you’re lucky you get to have her be your guide thru the amazing culinary and drink experience at Onyx.

Charlie Andrews

Great food and friendly service. Really fun place for a birthday dinner, they brought out instruments and sombreros and a big sparkler with a flan for dessert. I’m gluten intolerant and they were helpful in accommodating my dietary restrictions. The enchiladas verdes were delicious, though portions were a bit small for that dish. My girlfriend got the coconut shrimp and enjoyed it too.

Christina Lossing

Absolutely the best taqueria in Tulum! Fully plant based with gluten free options. The mushroom carnitas are my fave!

Spencer

Delicious. Also VERY attentive to gluten free needs if you’re celiac. The managers and chefs all understand very well

jasmine fuller

Took my hubby here for his birthday. Everything is perfect. I am celiacs, and they catered to my allergy

Ana Iglesias

Several gluten-free options. I had the chicken blue corn tacos and they were delicious. They also had chicken or beef skewers.

Marta Ninotti

Lovely mexican meal. If you are coeliac or intolerant to gluten, they have a few gluten free options.

Anya Guerra

5 stars!! We had a group of eight including one with gluten allergy, one with a dairy allergy and even a child. We all found something to order and we all loved our meals! The salsas are the best part! Don’t skip this place when in Cancun

Sierra Schultz

Jose Pausto and all the staff here are amazing. They were quick and knowledgeable to point out and accommodate gluten free meals (lots of their menu is naturally) and made us feel so welcome. The sunset bar is great to visit at happy hour for 2 for 1 drinks (300 pesos). We came here many times during our 8 nights in Tulum.

Natalia Marin Arribas

Delicious!! The run out of GF pankaces and made me a GF avocado toast instead! So nice, and the smoothies are amazing!!

Mark Baca

Laura Brandt

Amazing food and amazing view. But the service is even better. The people who work there and the owner were very nice with me when I told them about my gluten allergy. If I ever go back to Chetumal, I will definately go there again!

We had a gluten free sandwich (which was super tasty) a very large and fresh protein salad. Nice waiters. Absolute recommendation, we were thrilled. Vegetarian dishes available
