Top 41 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Delight in Palm Springs

Jacob Peacock

We needed an early lunch for the road, so got take out here. I ordered the lasagna and it was not good at all in my opinion. First, it looked gray and flat. I promise I took that picture in the sun and tried to make it look as good as possible. Second, it was small, especially for $20: there were only two layers of pasta, so it wasn't thick, and it wasn't that large a slice. Third, it tasted about as good as it looked. (I didn't realize it was gluten free, but that's probably why the pasta was especially disappointing.) I will say the biscuits and gravy were redeeming (despite being not a great take-out food). The root vegetable hash tofu scramble was bland: I suspect the tofu was flavored only with a bit of turmeric and salt, perhaps. We added two packets of cholula and then added salsa to give it some flavor.

Really good

What an absolute treat. They even have gluten free crepes! I highly recommend it.

Stephanie Roush

Gluten free options galore! Vegetarian also. We loved the food and our server, Kaitlin, was hilarious and made our time there amazing. We wish we had eaten all of our meals here on our trip.

Fantastic service, good food and drinks but the atmosphere left a bit to be desired. I came here with a group of 9 people, and we were seated in the back room where I guess they put the bigger groups. The smaller front room with the bar seemed like way more of a vibe with the lighting, decor and music but the back room was kind of big and boring with bright overhead lighting. The food wasn't mind blowing but it was totally solid and I was very pleased with the number of gluten free options and the staff's knowledge and detail about cross contamination, ensuring that I would be safe to eat here as a person with celiac disease. The highlights were the amazing gluten free churros (!!!) and our wonderful server. If you're with a big group, they can definitely support that but I hope they can improve the vibes of that back space. I would come back, maybe with a smaller group, and sit in the more vibey front bar area and honestly I'd come back just for the churros they were so good!

Enjoyed a lovely breakfast on the terrace. They sat us quickly. The server was busy and friendly. What I loved was their gluten free options.

4/16/25: dinner with a friend. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we lost track of time. We started the evening sitting outside, but the gusty wind drove us inside to a beautiful table by the window. The staff made this transition very smooth despite it being a busy day at the restaurant. My friend claimed that her drink was excellent although a bit on the strong side. I enjoyed the gluten-free chicken masala and she said that the happy hour hamburger, which she had on a gluten-free bun, was excellent. Our total for dinner for two, with shared brussel sprouts as an appetizer, and the one cocktail was about $76 before tip.

Gluten free options for many things. Ask for bread or English muffin GF substitute. Yummy drinks. Great atmosphere. One of our favorite places!

4/16/25: breakfast with a friend. The outdoor seating area in this restaurant is borderline magical. Somehow, even though dozens of people are seated in this small space, it still felt like it was just the two of us. If the service was spotty, and the food just okay, the atmosphere would still somehow make this place excellent. But good news! The service is 4 out of 5 stars, and the food is scrumptious. There seems to be a small army of servers who somehow danced around the tight space, keeping water glasses full and checking on diners. I enjoyed a gluten-free omelette that surprisingly came with some regular bread. The server happily replaced it with gluten-free bread quickly. I also enjoyed French press coffee. This is a busy restaurant, but I give them props for developing an efficient system regarding the waitlist and notification when the table is ready. They suggested a 35 minute wait, but it ended up being like 15. My tip is to not be afraid of a long line. You will probably be seated quickly, and a short wait is definitely worth it.

Panadería con muchas opciones de pastas y diferentes tipos de panes. Disponen de horno por lo que casi todos los productos son hechos cada día. Disponen de muffins sin gluten para celíacos. Se puede aparcar justo delante

They have the most delicious looking cakes here! I couldn’t choose what flavor I wanted immediately because everything looked so good. I ended up getting the lemon dome cake, which had amazing whipped frosting. I heard their chocolate cakes were very popular. They also have gluten free options here.

Inconsistent messaging. Go somewhere else. Here's the lovely response I received from Melissa after receiving a verbal confirmation regarding a cake l. If you can't do it, just say you can't, over the phone. The person I spoke to said it was fine. Talk to your staff. From Melissa at OTRD: Hello Gillian, if you had bothered to check our website it clearly states w require a minimum of 4+ weeks for weekend orders. Good luck trying to find gluten free in the desert at the last minute due to your lack of planning. Update, based on owners feedback: Hello, thank you for sending a response aligned with a kind of treatment I received from your business. To be clear, we knew we were calling last minute and were pleased when one of your staff said that they would be able to help us. I'm not a liar, and the tone of your email definitely proves my point. Cake stores are everywhere. Good luck to you.

Bright inside, lots of seating inside and out. Good coffee, baked goods with limited sugar and/or gluten free. Very nice outdoor seating.

Mariea Monday-Richardson

We had lunch and it was delicious. I had the frittata and they made it gluten free.

KK Fiffick

It was a bar like setting nothing fancy and a little loud indoors. They had a great option to eat outdoors. Lots of gluten free choices and all food was good for the six of us dining. They have a nice parking lot.

Christopher Ward

Excellent food, very aware of gluten-free options and considerate of celiac members of our dining party.

J Martin

Best bread on the West Coast!!! Heck, maybe the World!!! The sourdough makes the bread virtually gluten free. Plus, Kristin and Mark are quite fun!

Anji Manning

Sadly not many gluten free choices

Caleb Poush

Gluten reduced bagel options available.

Virginia and Clint Snider

The staff was great, the food was OK. Not a great place for celiac. Non celiac hubby liked his burger but fries (krinkle cut) were left uneaten. My salad was just ok, iceberg lettuce.

Crystal Varkalis

INCREDIBLE spot for vegans, only wish I lived closer! Will always try to remember to stop by when I'm in this area. The desserts were incredible!!! Lots of delicious grab-n-go items & sauces too. Small Gluten Free selection tho- if they had GF bread for the sandwiches then this place would really be perfect

Andrea Blessum

Our server and the other staff were very friendly and kind, making faces at the baby with our party to make her smile. The server was very knowledgeable about the menu, which I appreciate as a person who can't eat gluten and dairy.

Tasha Schindel

Great service and really good food. I recommend the fishbowl margarita. Super fun and flavourful. They also had great selections for my friend that is celiac.

matt hempeck

Gluten free options

peter k

I’ve eaten so many times here. Take out often too. I’m gluten intolerant and they’re aware and have many options. I often get beef or chicken taquitos. I’ve never had a chewy piece of meat and the lettuce and tomato are always crisp and fresh. It’s a simple meal, done to perfection. Did I say always? Always friendly. Reasonably priced. Friendly, family atmosphere.

Ashley S

What a gem! I'm so glad we discovered this place. The food was delicious and safe for my celiac husband. The service was excellent and incredibly fast. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. We will be back next time!

Katherine W.

Loved this spot! We polled several locals for their favorite brunch spots and almost everyone mentioned Jake's, so we knew we had to try it. It has more of a boutique/homey feel than some other places, and everyone working was extremely nice. Food and drinks also came out very fast. We got the short rib Benedict and lobster roll without a roll (GF, of course!), plus a side of fries. All were super good. I also had a rosie margarita, which was very pretty and not cloyingly sweet. We ordered a couple desserts to go - they had several gluten free baked goods, so I was really happy. One of the slices of cake (not GF) was as big as our heads... wild. Definitely stop by this place when you're in town. I recommend not driving as their drink menu is very extensive and everything looked great; would've loved to have another if we weren't driving home right after!

Cathleen

Next level Açai!! Taste ssssoo much better than the store-bought stuff most places serve. The flat bread is also gluten free and super tasty

Scott Barter

We sat at the bar, the bartender was super friendly and accommodating for my partners celiac disease. The cauliflower pizza crust was so good, the pasta was meh. Would get 2 pizzas next time.

Macie Carey

The service was fast and efficient! We had a group of ten, and they were happy to serve us. The food was very good. We especially liked the tacos and guacamole. The beans are vegetarian, so it’s easy to find vegetarian and gluten free options here!

Zoé Noailly

Very good place for breakfast! The food is good and plentiful, the staff very kind. There are also gluten-free options and plant-based milks for people with intolerances.

Colleen King

Really delicious cold brew. Woman run. Some gluten free options. Açaí bowl was perfect. Good portions. Great patio!

MAYANK JINDAL

Gluten free muffin was really good.

Jill Kelly

I was so glad to find a very reasonably priced restaurant with American food...no fancy, overpriced California vegan, gluten free, blah, blah , blah food there! Huge menu to chose from & breakfast served all day! Great portion sizes too. I spent $26 on a regular no frills grilled cheese at a tourist trap bar 2 blks down from John's! The next day I found John's and bought a whole meal for $6 including drink. I did bring my food back to my hotel patio. As the ambiance is definately a priority there. Its an old school diner. Nothing fancy but good!

Skip the apple pancakes and get the beignets instead! The beignets were light and fluffy, instead of the crispier churro texture that comes from most places when it's overcooked. Beignets are a 4.5 on a scale of 1-5. The crispy apple pancakes that they're known for were too sweet and needed a higher pancake to apple ratio. Crispy apple pancakes were a 2.5 on a 1-5 scale. California omelet was tasty. Not super amazing like I had hoped, but still very good. California Omelet was 3.75 on a 1-5 scale. I didn't like that the fruit that came with California Omelet, which was honeydew melon and canteloupe, with 4 grapes since I'm allergic to those melons, and they ran out of the gluten free muffin too. Since I can't have gluten I asked for bacon instead. They charged me a dollar for one slice of bacon, which is ridiculous. I also ordered a side of the cubed potatoes, which tasted good - 3.75 on a scale of 1-5. Overall we liked the food and will come back here when we're in town because the beignets were so good (the remarks on the beignets and crispy apple pancakes came from my husband since I couldn't eat them).

Jenny Logan

Coffee was good. What was GREAT was the gluten free pastry I got!!!

Erika Molaro

This place was great! They exceeded my expectations and while they don't advertise gluten free they had options so that I could enjoy my meal both for dinner and for brunch! Our server at dinner was outstanding, truly above and beyond. I'd certainly go back!

Zev Krauss

We just had dinner there last night and everything was wonderful. Josiah our served was fantastic, great recommendations and super knowledgable. Restaurant can be a bit boisterous during prime time but otherwise great. We ordered the schnitzel, deviled eggs and steak. Gluten free friendly as well.

Erin Lewis

It gets wild. The food is great. They do have celiac safe gluten free options. Rosemary is fabulous.

Alan Hoffmann

Came here for gluten free options and the food and service were fantastic. Wedge salad, short rib polenta eggs benedict, and decaf espresso were excellent. My SO said the regular espresso was excellent too! Highly re

Sheila Taylor

We had a delightful brunch here on the recommendation of friends. The menu may be small but the choices were delicious. We confirmed that they were able to accommodate gluten free with a few choices from the menu (and gf soy sauce). Tomoko is very passionate about your experience and offers suggestions for serving/eating the Bento box and blinis. All were appreciated. The gravlax is smoked by her chef/husband with fennel: divine!!
