Top 7 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Enjoy in South Scottsdale, Scottsdale

C Golding

Incredible service and lots of gluten free and vegan options. I love how all of the ice cream was vegan! As someone with a gluten and dairy allergy, I basically gave up on baked goods... But discovering BEG is going to change that for me! I can't overstate how kind and friendly they were either. Some of the best customer service I've had in a really long time.

We do not live in this area but were in the area and in need of a good breakfast that served Gluten Free foods. We had the best skillet meal that included gluten free pancakes that were absolutely wonderful! The biggest surprise was there was no extra charge for the gluten free pancakes or the extra plate. (My husband and I shared the skillet.) We just wish we lived closer so we could enjoy the food at Butters more often.

Liza Ross

YES, gluten free delicious!!! Don't skip the loaded peach lemonade. Just don't forget to ask for gluten free if you need it.

It’s a great place with all types of food such as protein based, vegan, gluten free and even drinks! Fantastic place.

Christopher Parrett

They had an incredibly delicious gluten free menu for meals and dessert!

kathleen Bandola

LOVED IT! Most items were gluten-free and EVERYTHING was delicious!

Troy Aberle

PBJ burger with gluten free bun was 13/10!

Brandon was our server and he did AMAZING! It was a Saturday night though not very busy inside dining, yet the door dash and other deliveries are slamming the restaurant and it felt like he was virtually running the whole front of the restaurant by himself, making drinks for people, serving us very well, and assuring my girlfriend with her gluten free and vegetarian options as well as ensuring I was able to customize my order which tasted beyond what I’ve eaten before. I’ve had a lot of carne asada but their burrito customized with the carne asada is immaculate! We love the area and we can’t pass on such incredible service from Brandon and the quality of the food! Great atmosphere and gluten free / vegetarian options!

I’ve come here a handful times as a local student. I absolutely love it and always jump at the opportunity of sharing it with my friends or family when in town. Not only is the food delicious, but the service is so warm and efficient! My best friend has celiac and the couple of times we’ve gone together, they’ve provided really special care for her safety. The location itself has the perfect brunch atmosphere that’s tucked away and the local/ small-town lunch atmosphere that’s near Old Town Scottsdale.

IMO the best thing on their menu is the bruschetta board and I was so excited when I found out that they have a gluten free bread substitute for it. I’m not sure what kind of gf bread they use but it’s incredible, it actually sticks together and doesn’t crumble apart! It’s so good that my non-gf friends will split an order with me cause they say they can’t really taste a difference.

This place is really cute! They have a gift shop in the lobby, with some eclectic items. The people are super-friendly; and the southern recipes are well prepared. I was, however, kind of disappointed with what I chose, which was the biscuits and gravy. I felt sick to my stomach, afterwards, for hours after, average biscuits were more like the consistency of a pre-packaged, British-style crumpet/scone consistency, plus the gravy tasted really processed with no flavor, OTHER than poor-grade , bulk seasoning mix. My roommate’s selection, though (which she let me try) was good, though, which was a scramble which had spinach, feta cheese and tasted really fresh, and didn’t disappoint in freshness and flavor. If I go back in the future. I’ll be ordering it for brunch! I also got a desert to go from the counter, which was a chocolate peanut butter ganache cupcake that was out of this world! They source their baked goods from small, local vendors in the area, and have many gluten free and vegan options!

We had a wonderful experience at Olive and Ivy! Chris - our waiter, created a fun, engaging and lovely experience as we sat and spent time together as a family. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and every recommendation he made was spot on! He truly made the afternoon a delight! The food was delicious and fresh as well as allergen friendly. We had the crème brûlée - as a gluten free dessert and it was the most unique crème brûlée I’ve ever had!

Emily Kehner

Happy to find a spot with a few vegan options for breakfast. We enjoyed the crispy polenta tacos, tempeh breakfast bowl, and a modified avocado toast (subbed sourdough for the egg bread, subbed tempeh for the bacon/egg, and added sliced tomato) A few vegan side options as well, like the crispy polenta, breakfast potatoes, fresh fruit, beans and rice. Not the *most delicious* food we’ve ever had but we were so glad to go somewhere with real vegan options and something for the whole family (including kids, gluten free, and vegans)

Deanna Robbins

Love the morning buzz! Super yummy! I did get a gluten free breakfast wrap but the wrap was a bit dry. Still good flavor! Whenever I am in PHX it’s a go to for me.

I have celiac. We discussed the issue extensively with the server who assured me I was in a good spot and all would be fine. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. They messed up the order and brought out a wonton taco plated with the corn taco and the server advised the entire plate was gluten free. Only after eating the wonton did I discover the issue. The server apologized and contacted a manager. That’s where things took a bad turn. The manager, a very young blonde female, who clearly couldn’t be bothered with severe food allergies, came out, referred to the situation as a “small issue”, proceeded to blame me, and then offered three separate excuses for why this happened. Setting aside that each excuse was unsatisfactory, it was abundantly clear neither she, or the restaurant, took food allergies seriously. My valentines date/dinner was entirely ruined, not to mention a very expensive trip to Arizona, for which I am only on day 1 and will inevitably spend the rest of the trip in the hotel bathroom. Despite being celiac, I’m a foodie and eat in some of the best restaurants across the country. This may be some of the worst service, and particularly management, I’ve ever seen.

Lexi George

This place was so good we ordered from here 4 times while on vacation. Incredibly grateful they had amazing gluten free options. I think Naperville, IL would be a great spot to open a location… ;)

Michele Phillips

Love this place. So many options including, gluten free and keto. Service is top notch. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Coffee is delicious. They also sell t-shirts and craft items. Definitely recommend

Jon B

I love the Mongolian beef here and the pad Thai. The also have great gluten free options too.

Sarah Donnell

Staff here are so sweet! It was really nice to have gluten free options as a celiac. Prices are up there, but I guess that’s par for the course in 2025 and as a GF option. If I was a local I would return!

Arthur Aguilar

Will come again!! Kimberly was amazing with all the help she gave us! Gluten free options, not many places like this! Anytime of the day, this is the right choice if you want good food with good people!

Kara Cavanaugh

They have gluten free options! I got french toast (and didn't get cross contaminated) and sampled the coffee flight. It was all delicious and we were in and out quickly.

Bill Hourigan

Went with a group (8 total) of friends who had recommended this place for breakfast and WOWZA! Everyone at the table LOVED the food (and drinks) they ordered and we ALL have different tastes. Very accommodating, staff was amazing. It was soul-crushing that I could not finish everything. Would go back in a heartbeat! Try the ricotta gluten free pancakes…life changing.

Aaron Finigan

Very welcoming dog friendly patio. Plenty of gluten free options. Food was delicious.

Christina Schofield

Outdoor space is great when weather allows! Neat spot with old traditional ambience. Gluten free menu available with a good variety of food, attached in pics. Tried the red enchiladas, and did not think they had any flavor. They are also very small, and only available in chicken, can't sub other meat. Waiter was very nice and accommodating to help me find a meal I would like and replace it. Guacamole is great and chips are gluten free too. Red chili pork chop had a great presentation and even better flavor.

I had the day off and decided to meet up with some friends for brunch with my little one! This restaurant is located in the back of the mall, near Nobu and Francine. They have such a nice patio area, which would be great for the cooler months. Inside, there were plenty of seating options. They gave our table a high chair and took our order. We had really great service for our meal and she was very attentive. I ordered the crispy eggs with prosciutto, which came with bread and a bed of arugula. This was really good, and I feel like a pretty good value for prosciutto ($18.) I also ordered their gluten-free blueberry banana bread for my son. It was nice that the bread was not overly sweet, as most banana breads can be. This was a nice location for our little catch-up, and we would love to come again to enjoy their outdoor seating.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Moxie’s restaurant in Scottsdale, AZ, and it was an experience worth sharing. From the moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by the sophisticated décor and the expansive, open layout. The space is thoughtfully designed with cozy booths lining the exterior and high-top tables filling the central area, creating an atmosphere that’s both inviting and chic. The menu at Moxie’s is a culinary feast for both the eyes and the palate. Every dish is artfully presented, and the flavors are nothing short of exceptional. I had the opportunity to try two outstanding items: • FARMERS HASH: This hearty dish combines pancetta bacon, jalapeño pork sausage, roasted vegetables, and pickled onions, all topped with perfectly poached eggs, home fries, and a drizzle of hollandaise sauce. The medley of flavors and textures made every bite delightful. • TUNA SUSHI STACK: A visually stunning dish featuring sushi-grade tuna stacked with seasoned rice, avocado, mango, and complemented by a soy ginger glaze and spicy mayo. Served alongside seasoned prawn crackers, it was a refreshing and flavorful treat. The service was equally impressive. Our server was not only attentive and knowledgeable but also genuinely friendly and helpful, enhancing our overall dining experience. The staff’s professionalism and warmth made us feel well-cared-for throughout our meal. Overall, Moxie’s hit it out of the park in all areas. From the elegant ambiance to the exquisite cuisine and excellent service, it’s a restaurant that delivers on all fronts. Additional Information: • Ambiance: Perfect for both casual lunches and special occasions, with a lively yet comfortable atmosphere. • Location: Conveniently situated in Scottsdale with ample parking options nearby. • Reservations: Recommended during peak hours to ensure a seamless dining experience. • Menu Variety: Offers a diverse selection catering to various tastes, including vegetarian and gluten-free options. If you’re in Scottsdale and looking for a memorable dining experience, Moxie’s is a must-visit destination. I highly recommend it and look forward to my next visit.

This location is located in the Optima Sonoran Village but you don’t have have live here to visit it. It’s not gated, just park in the covered parking and walk over. Delicious drinks, food and cookies! Super healthy spot and great if you eat vegan or gluten free. The Vegan peanut butter protein cookies are so yummy and not caulky like some protein cookies. And if you want something lighter than a juice or smoothie the Alkaline Chlorophyll water is a refreshing and hydrating option flavored with lime. Perfect for hydrating during yoga! I also love that Kaleidoscope is locally and female owned!

Went here for Arizona Restaurant Week with friends. Great food and service. We were very impressed! My friend is both gluten and dairy free and Joseph, our server was very knowledgeable and the chef most accommodating to make appropriate adjustments. We would highly recommend and will be going back.

Outstanding pizza, service and Dr. Pepper. Fair price. The perfect hole in the wall spot for pizza. Looking forward to coming again. Best gluten free crust around!

Kamileah K

Beautiful outdoor area with plenty of seating. wonderful options for gluten free and vegan foods and ample amount of beverages. Pictured is the 4222 Bowl, which was very refreshing.

Giselle M. Aguiar

I was there for the Local First AZ lunch and was happy to see a gluten-free menu. Being gluten-free, I'm usually stuck with salads but I was able to enjoy the turkey club sandwich! I'll be back!

Marlyn Fuller

Love 1st watch 😆 being gluten I can safely enjoy my food. They were empty, surprisingly because back home it's super busy ... Either way try their ice coffee! It's delicious 🤤

Joey “Jojokat” Katone

Came in for dinner with my hubby and 3 kids, Feliciano took my order and was super diligent to make sure my allergy ( gluten) was address. I felt super safe eating there. The manger came over ( Wayne) and double checked everything to make sure we got the best deal! Which was kids eat free!!! Thank you. Top notch service! Excellent food! Clean restaurant! Hit all the points.

Jessica Cons

Aesthetic, cute spot and good food. I was impressed with the quality food and cocktails, I liked the ambiance and music. It was pretty chill on a Sunday afternoon. Will definitely return. Plus they have gluten free options on the menu which is what I have to eat so it’s nice that they are marked as such on the menu.

Jim Leahy

Chose this because it came up under ‘gluten free’, yet really not many options on the menu.

Krystal Pocs

The food is good but $21 for a gluten free blt bagel with a side of fruit is too much.

Heather Beauchamp

We always get Mary when we come. The first time, this location was short staffed and we didn’t have the highest hopes for the experience, but Mary was amazing even while she was overwhelmed. Today was no different, Mary was spot on and recommended a way better way to do my meal that had dairy and gluten restrictions. Super happy with the food and the service!!

Pretty good. Not a lot of vegetarian options, but a couple. The avacado taco is pretty good. Didn't see anything for gluten free menu. Service is pretty good every time I've been. If you sit in the wrong spot inside then you're going to have to shout like it's a night club to talk to each other.

Steve Skojec

I can't have donuts because of a gluten problem, but they have long been my favorite morning treat. I took my two youngest here for Saturday visit, and was blown away. Don't let the drab exterior fool you. This is a gourmet donut shop with an amazing selection, great service, and unbeatable prices. I took small bites of each of my kids' selections - a bavarian cream and a chocolate cake - and they were fantastic. (I'll pay for the indulgence later, but it may just be worth it.) If you love donuts, go here. You won't regret it.

Lindsay Walsh

Great gluten free options including breakfast sandwiches 🥪

Elizabeth Gooden

Fun place! I appreciated gluten-free choices. The atmospere is friendly. I wrote at my laptop and enjoyed the coffee and muffin. Dog friendly patio and breakfast will draw me back.

Alyssa Burkhart

Visiting AZ from out of town. Thrilled to see they have gluten free options on the list! Would of loved to see the crepes be gluten free, but the gluten free toast/bread worked well for what I ordered!

KRISTY KNIEPER

This place is so great! Food was spectacular. They have gluten free buns and a separate frier for gf fries. Service was top notch. There was live music and cornhole, so very entertaining. The only drawback is there were birds but they didn’t really bother us. The atmosphere and aesthetic is very superb.
