Top 50 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Delight in Hamilton

Jake Preston-Marshall

Brilliant place for coeliacs, but also for 'normal' people 🙂 Friendly, helpful staff, nice atmosphere and each dish exceeded our expectations!

The food quality has dropped substantially since the place was sold. I had been going here regularly for the past ten years. I have been telling myself the substantial drop in quality over the past couple of years are one offs, but every time I go, the food is poorly made, doesn't include what was stated in the menu. The smoothie I had been ordering for ten years was poorly made, watery like every time I have had it over the past year. The fries that were supposed to come with a gluten free vegan aioli came with sauce without telling me. Whatever I got today it was definitely not gluten free and I will be spending the rest of the day sick. So many happy memories of this place it was hard to give up but its clear from the owners comments they could care less and are happy to take our money and ruin one of the best eateries in hamilton very sad. I am relocating to a different city and I guess at least I don't have to worry about missing this place anymore :(

A cup of tea and a gf salad came to 32.50 which seems excessive and i queried it as the gluten version of the salad was 24.00 so there was a 3.00 surcharge that I should have been told about Counter person was unfriendly and uninterested to the point of rude. The salad was underwhelming just premix bag with cherry tomatoes and over cooked chewy lamb.I was sorry I stayed.

Stephanie Roughton

Amazing gluten free scones - chive, garlic and cheese. They were beautiful and the coffee was great.

Trish Watson

Was nice to have the option of gluten free pancakes, I haven’t seen that on a menu in a while! The staff were friendly and helpful, food and coffee came out in a reasonable time.

S Weeks

Excellent service and delicious food! The staff was friendly and very accommodating to dietary restrictions (gluten free).

Love this cafe the servers are so lovely and the owner is so nice and welcoming the in-house baking are delicious and I appreciate the gluten free option! ☺️

Kane McGarvey

Only ubered from here and got the bubble and squeak being gluten free. First time meat portion wasn't quite right poached eggs slightly over cooked and hollandaise was lacking and got a gut ache afterwards. They responded with a Voucher to order again this time meat portion seemed better eggs were perfect onion however was chunky and not fully cooked hollandaise same issue already feel my stomach turning so not sure if that's related to this food specifically having gluten or just something else new setting me off 🤣 the fact they seemed to have taken some constructive criticism on board and improved is much more then most do and the lack of sauce I suspect could be easily remedied if you actually ordered at the restaurant. As dumb as this might sound what is the packaging made of the food comes in ?

Lisa Marshall

Organic, no nonsense, yummy coffee and food. Lots of gluten-free options. Love the good food ethic. Funky, good vibe cafe,

Kristina Turcianska

Great coffee, the open steak sandwich was amazing! The potato roastie was definitely to come back for! Great flavors on such a simple dish. The table next to me had the smash avo on !in house made bread! I'm pretty sure it was gluten free and keto 👌 and strawberry matcha looked like a coctail 🤩 very friendly staff 👌 May have walked away with a macadamia and( "something,caramilk?🤷🏼‍♀️") slice 🤫 (no regrets 😋) Everything in the cabinet looked so good,so technically that's a win 😉

Sabrina Gogg

Busy lunch place but absolutely loved the food and we were served in no time. I ordered the gluten free eggs bene with salmon and asked for sauce on the side. Define! Definitely recommend!

L Summers

We love Hayes common so much ! I am coeliac and can always be 100% confident my meal will be perfect. Staff are fabulous coffee and food amazing

Chris C

Stumble upon this coffeehouse because it was close to our motel. The food was phenomenal. New Zealanders know how to do breakfast. Great loose leaf tea. Gluten free conscious. Friendly staff/owners.

Bill Goodwin

wonderful meal and service. really good gluten free selection. Would highly recommend.

Shannon Standaloft

Just a PSA for those with celiac disease. The GF is short for Gluten Friendly not Gluten Free. Never heard of Gluten Friendly so didn't spot this until we got there but it essentially means you can eat it if you have a mild intolerance but nothing more. Only the salads are suitable for people who are celiac so a pretty stink dinner, and we were told the noodles would be replaced but they were just removed so pretty much chicken and leaves. Feel like the servers were doing their best though and we're very apologetic so gave service a 4

Colin Holloway

Amazing restaurant with honest, delicious food at a great price, topped only by the care and service from the wait staff. My daughter is celiac and all questions were answered with compassion and menu alterations were handled without fuss. Highly recommended whether for a family dinner, work gathering or even a date night.

Delicious food and great gluten free range

Service was good as was the food. But the bathroom was disgusting. It was a mess and there was no hand soap, plus the staff weren't busy so no excuses there. The gluten free buns were better than expected/we're used to which was nice.

Mikayla

Amazing Tacos, come here for Taco Tuesday basically every week 😍🙏 Southern Fried Chicken Tacos are my fav! Great service, always friendly staff, nice atmosphere and even better they offer Gluten Free + Vegetarian options!

Zaliah O'Keeffe

The service is always amazing when we go in always good vibes and wonderful food. I’m very happy to see a wider range of gluten free sauces and options we can’t wait to come back

Indigo Simblett

Fantastic service from very customer focused Abby. Abby just seemed to get the little things that make sharing breakfast as a family a bit nicer (food all at the same time, hot coffee, extra marshmallows for the mum that never gets them, reading back the large complicated order to ensure it was all ok). Our complicated got drinks order didn't seem an issue at all!. Would like some more gluten/dairy free cabinet options but would return again just for the customer service.

victoria lahman

As always the food here is delicious! The portion sizes are generous, the food comes out fast, the coffees are good, the cabinet food is all yummy, they have a row of gluten free options in the cabinet and heaps on the menu to choose from. I highly recommend A++++++++

Debbie Riley

Great range, menu, and most importantly, cater for Coeliac with the most choices I've seen. This made eating out a pleasure with my daughter, who often feels like it's difficult to eat out, as there are lots of places that don't offer many options if your Coeliac. Staff are approachable, helpful, and friendly. Very much recommend Scott's Epicurean

Chris Brooker

Tasty gluten free eggs bene and my friend said the gf caramel slice was delicious

Benjamin Barhorst

Very good selection of vegan and gluten free food with nice coffee and excellent service.

Malaki Casey

Great little Cafe with great atmosphere, I really like that every time I go and ask for gluten-free or get a gluten-free cabinet food, they ask if I'm celiac to prevent cross contamination.

Esther Sunnex

I had a coffee and a gluten free muffin here on 27/12/23. So yummy! Absolute great coffee, really enjoyed it. The muffin was nice too, especially with the blue berries in it. I can highly recommend this place. Great service too.

Selma Roth

For a neighborhood cafe they do a decent job. The place is cosy and with character, but the staff seemed a bit lost. They didn't approach us when we entered (though it was not crowded at all) and we had to ask for everything: menu (which was on the blackboard), water, even utensils. Food was nice, but the portions a bit small (French?) for the price. Coffee and sugar-free/gluten-free/dairy-free cake was delicious though.

Reda_Katz

Awesome cafe. Not too many gluten-free cabinet options. But they have amazing gluten-free savory muffins. They also have gluten-free menu options, which include some lovely crepes

Dana Watkins

Excellent friendly service, great menu, lots of gluten free options. Best French toast ever. Beautifully presented meals. Will definitely be back, thank you

John Curwood

Good food and coffee, specifically has good range of gluten free and keto options if you are requiring those dietary options.

Sue

Great coffee, lovely environment, great food. If there were more gluten free options they would be 5 stars :-)

Cami Carty-Melis

Amazing cafe with delicious food catering for a range of diets including vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and keto. They are a social enterprise doing great work in our community, and have created a welcoming social-justice-oriented environment. There is a beautiful Matariki Garden in the back. Indoor and outdoor seating, and private room bookings available.

Happy

The young girl was so helpful with helping us choose our burgers, one of us is gluten-free. She explained pretty well.

Dan Mackenzie

Creamy mushrooms on toast were DELICIOUS! And gluten free which is awesome for me being celiac!

Pepper Maxine

Best Gluten Free Yoyo's

Joanne Marsden-philp

I was very disappointed with this cafe. Being gluten free it is difficult to find places that provide meals and i thought id finally found somewhere in Frankton i could eat. They had run out of gluten free savoury options in their cabinet ( a panini) so i asked if they could make me one. They said they didnt have time and declined to make me one, yet if i had ordered something off their cooked menu it surely would have taken as long and not been refused. This was the only thing that i found suitable for me to eat with other food requirements as well. I ended up being stuck in Frankton for 5 and a half hours while waiting for my car to be worked on and ended up going hungry as a result of their lack of service. Please remember that people who are gluten free have very limited options in the community and reconsider the way you treat people when they ask for these options.

Geraldine Wong

We’re so grateful for this celiac-safe haven with angels like Millie W. Thanks for going the extra mile to care for those with dietary restrictions.

Hamaka Murray

I love the setup of the restaurant and the decor. The food was succulent, flavoursome and hearty! The portion sizes are huge so your in for a good feed. The pricing is higher than most burger joints but it is so worth it - a flavour sensation. The menu suits all! From gluten free, dairy free and a great selection of delicious vege/vegan options. Come on down and give it a try. You will not regret.

Jane Bibby

We had Christmas dinner tonight. Beautiful yummy meal. Amazing service and catered for my dad who is coeliac. We have been twice before and will be back again. The beans a fav and the sweet and sour pork

huntf1sh

Galette was delicious! And gluten free!

Jessica Thomson

Certainly lived up to the reviews. We had a friendly welcome on arrival. We all had a cooked breakfast, three eggs bene, 1 GF with salmon, 1 salmon, 1 with bacon and creamy mushrooms. Plenty gluten free options, all delish and a good portion. Coffee was great. Bonus was the cruisey playlist. Nice work Markyles team!

Lorraine Pemberton

This place used to be awesome, the young man that worked Friday's made beautiful food...my last 2 orders have fallen terribly short. Today's was the upmost failure, order was incorrect to what I ordered online, then the staff member a tall thin girl argued with me over it being correct. I was going to show her my order confirmation email and what that said but she just said our manager isn't here...like you can't fix it?? Really?? Then I tried again to show her my email and she just walked off...I waited, now my chips are cold and we're overcooked FYI, I'm late for where I need to be and I've got a burger in a gluten free bun so stale I couldn't bite into it with only one slice of tomato the size of a 50c and bacon that was also burnt... disgusting. I gave up and walked out with my incorrect cold order. Not coming back here again and would NOT RECOMMEND anyone bothers with bad service and high prices for sadly bad food. Sad loss...you guys seriously need to pick up your game

Sandra Mott

Lovely food done differently and presented beautifully. I asked for gluten-free and the meal I was given was very nice. Would definitely go back and look forward to trying other options!

Merryn Vdw

I asked for a GF version as I'm coeliac. The person behind the counter asked me if I was coeliac when he took my order. But I found out the hard way an hour later that the food when it arrived definitely wasn't GF. Was sick for two days.

Emma Yarndley

Regular lunch spot. Love their fresh rice paper rolls for an easy gluten-free lunch. Thank you so much team.

Suzanne Hutchinson

So great to see a place with a gluten free savoury option. Was delicious.

Clare McDonald

Such a great new spot in the cafe scene in Hamilton. Really good coffee, and the food has been delicious! Lots of healthy options which is an awesome addition for this end of town. Lots of vegan and Gluten free options too for those with dietary requirements

Helen Anderson

Amazing cabinet options, plenty of drink options, gluten free options and always smiling friendly service 😃

Cate McCallum

Great little diner- my coffee was delicious. Didn't grab a photo of the meal but was basic bacon and eggs (they happily substituted gluten free bread for me)...nothing fancy but a good feed!
