Top 50 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Enjoy in San Francisco

Kristie Rolfsen

My croissant loving son was diagnosed with celiac disease in September. I almost cried today watching his happiness as he ate a chocolate croissant at Mariposa’s. 💚

Palmira Martin

Best mexican food in San Francisco!!! <3

My friend, who is severely celiac, got very sick here. They say all the food is gluten free, but that’s obviously not true. We looked up everything about this restaurant after she got sick and saw the review of some other person on this site who also got sick. They sell a lot of oats, so that’s probably why she got sick. Cross contamination. Watch out!!! For the not celiac’s, the food is good it just isn’t totally gluten free.

John Hoeglund

My absolute favorite brunch spot in SF. Outstanding food entirely gluten free and vegan. Safe for most major allergens.

Gary Reinecke

This is the best Indian I have had in SF so far. They also have excellent gluten free naan and an extensive gluten free menu!

Malin Schn

Absolutely delicious gluten-free arepas! Felt completely safe even with celiac disease.

Bry

Amazing gluten free burrito. Both the shrimp and plantain ones are top tier.

Gabriela Torres

Very cute neighborhood cafe. I am gluten and dairy and they had gluten free toast. The food was great

Eating and drinking outside is an option and is pleasant. If ordering to go beers or ciders can be ordered as well. Gluten free is offered and is tasty

Celeste Villalobos Tahamont

The whole staff is amazing. Friendly, great service. Potatoes, mind-blowing. Biscuit, crunchy deliciousness with honey butter and home made jam. Scallion, egg, crab scramble! Gluten free almond flour pancakes so tasty.

Julie Hareng

The Best empanadas I've ever eaten!!! Served warm with generous filling, many vegetarian or gluten free options. I've tried the mushroom empanada and the banana and dulce de leche (sweet), they were both delicious and at a good price. They have some good refreshing drinks too. I definitely recommend!

Kristie Rolfsen

MUST EAT HERE! Celiac, just eating gluten free, or not. This place is amazing. We loved the Chicken Tinga Tostadas and Rolled Tacos.

Jeff Lin

Great food and tons of gluten-free options for people with Celiac.

Noah Perdue

AMAZING service! Also the best gluten-free pancake I've ever had!! Maybe the only one I've ever had! And those ladies RUN that place. Five stars!

Gemma Boothroyd

Damnnn this place is good. You can tell the ingredients are high quality and fresh just by looking at them. I got the porridge which is gluten free, and it did not disappoint. Was my first time having a savoury porridge, and I’m glad I tried it here! Not quite as flavourful as I’d expected, but I will absolutely be coming back to try the sweet version of the porridge too 😊

Rae Ann Gustafson

The food is delicious, what I can eat. Sadly, they don't offer gluten free bread or pasta. I did order some of their sauce to put on my own gf noodles at home. Quite good!

Claire Bonnepart

This place is clean, staff are friendly and the food was tasty! Gluten free bread and vegan options available. I ordered the tofu scramble and added a side of chicken apple sausage ($7) a bit pricey .. but I’d definitely go back to hang out in the outdoor patio area for brunch again.

Alysha Coughler

Super chill place with always tasty dishes! The gluten-free injera was tasty and made it an inclusive meal

Ornella Cedeno

Amazing experience. The GF options are great and didn’t get sick!

Forest Selby

Yum as always. Have gluten free and vegan items. Fast service top

Michele Ovalle

I was looking for a bakery with gluten free options and this bakery nailed it! The line moved quickly and parking is convenient. I ordered one of every gluten free option. They were so good that I went back the same day to buy more for the road trip down to SoCal. I’ll be back!

Can't say enough good things about this place, and it has been a while since I have dined-in at a restaurant and enjoyed it (probably since before the pandemic). Okay, so I am just going to go for it in this review with the intent that the owners see this and know that I recognize all the effort they put into this place to making it amazing. First of all, great staff. I went in with my small (pug) service dog my first time there, and a customer was very upset that I would be dining-in with her. He went on a tirade and stormed off after a staff member let him know that it's legally allowed (seemed like he didn't know about service dog rules and in all fairness, she didn't have her vest on at the time - though I did have it with me). In any case, once I settled in, the same staff member approached me and thanked me for staying in spite of that guy, which I found very cool. The food was excellent and comes out quick!! It's tough to find good vegan food in general AND I'm also gluten free; I was so pleased to see many options for GF as well. This next part is specifically meant for the owners/concept designers of this establishment - I really enjoyed the ample spacious, cozy seating for solo dining (I'm a frequent solo diner) and the streamlined approach to dining. I don't think they offer a traditional sit-down dining experience (I may be wrong though). I like how this place blends self-service with the sit-down atmosphere, it is the first time I have experienced this and I hope more restaurants follow suit. I think the whole having a server take your order, establish a phony rapport in hopes of big tips, then get stressed if a mistake is made, and guest waiting around for the check if it's slammed at a restaurant (traditional sit-down dining experience) needs to die. I was a server for roughly a decade and in all honesty, I think it's awkward for everyone involved and not that fun. The pandemic may have identified this pain point in the restaurant experience across the board and The Rad Radish took notice, well done!! If you are a diner that loves that song-and-dance, you may want to just do take-out from this place, or be brave and try a new (and in my opinion, better) way to dine. Oh, and the prices are VERY reasonable, gotta love that in these trying times!!! Thanks Rad Radish, for being... RAD!!! Will definitely return, keep on kicking ass!!

The coffee is not very good. I liked that there is gluten free bread

Nathan Elizalde

Really good vibe. Porsche went above and beyond to ensure the allergens were avoided. Though they were busy we did not feel they were irritable or rushing us. The food was fine, but it was everything else that makes this place one you want to visit, especially if you have gluten and soy allergies.

Scott Allison

Lovely place, a classic bistro atmosphere, with great food and wine. The Marlowe burger is incredible, and it's gluten free without the bun. Honestly the burger I've ever had. Horseradish gives it a special kick!

There was a line outside the restaurant, but we didn't have to wait long to order and the food came out quickly. The store's name is Birds, but is there a dog with a sandwich in its mouth painted on the signboard or on the wall? wolf? The illustrations are cute! This is a system where you order and pay at the cash register, then pick up your order at the delivery counter. I ordered a salad, which you can also add fried chicken as a topping. You will be given a cup to drink your drink, so you can pour it yourself. All food was served in paper bags for take-out. You no longer have to deal with customers who switch to take-out, such as when they run out of time, and it's also easier to clean up trash inside the store. The ultimate fried chicken and sandwich shop: Click here for spicy fried chicken in San Francisco! We had lunch at Bird, a recommended restaurant. Bird Salad　(＄6.5) Romaine lettuce center, baby kale mix, steamed beets, spelled flour, celery, apple Dressing (separate): Champagne vinegar & honey, ranch, or blue cheese The dressing was blue cheese. There was only one type of salad, but the ingredients seemed to be health conscious and gluten-free conscious.

I visited this place on a Friday morning when it was somewhat busy. I liked that they offer both indoor and outdoor dining options. The menu is extensive, allowing you to mix and match one to three items from each section. For example, you can choose two pancakes or one eggs benedict, making it easy to try a variety of dishes. I ordered one eggs benedict, one gingerbread pancake, and a cappuccino. My friend ordered gluten-free English muffins, which was a nice option to have.The food was great—especially the gingerbread pancake, which had exceptional flavors. However, the coffee was burnt and much too hot. The service follows a European style, which meant a more relaxed pace, but at times it felt a bit inattentive. Overall, the food was good, and the atmosphere was pleasant.

Really tasty vegan food, even my boyfriend who normally doesn’t like vegan food found it tasty and filling! We got a wildseed burger, a watermelon salad, spicy sausage pizza, pasta and really nice drinks. I recommend the tumeric latte and charcoal lemonade :) They offer gluten-free options too, and obviously everything is dairy free as well :) The ambiance is nice and I’d come back again!

B. Feingold

We were visiting and had a wonderful meal here. They were able to tell me what gluten free options were available. Such a treat!

Alysha Coughler

Staff was excellent! I told them I had celiac disease and they said they could get me almost anything on the menu. Got an Amy’s burger and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was!!

Kobi Hudson

Great vegan and gluten free donut options.

Palmira Martin

DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR CELIAC

binasmith22

Great gluten free pastry and breakfast options! The cookies are great, don’t love the banana bread.

Meghan O'Keefe

The Grove is consistently high quality food. Good portions (justifying the prices) and high quality ingredients. Excellent gluten free bread!! Recently opened a bar so they have a full liquor menu instead of the previous beer and wine only.

Ariel Jackson

Great food, really cute, and they were able to make things gluten-free for someone with celiac disease. Thank you Ronnie for being so accommodating and nice!

Brooklynn Filstrup

No pudimos encontrar mejor lugar para comer en el barrio italiano!! 😍😍 Nos sentamos en la terraza, que ya tenia bastante encanto. Al entrar me sorprendí por el tamaño pequeño del local y toda la decoración ambientada en Italia, donde no podían faltar estantes con comida de marcas italianas. Para mis sorpresa me encontré con una pasta SIN GLUTEN. Nos dieron un servicio 10, la señora que me atendió me explico que podían hacerme pasta SIN GLUTEN, además de las salsas que podía elegir. Soy celiaca, por lo que pregunté por la contaminación cruzada y me indicó que lo tenían en cuenta. Pedí espaguetis con salsa de pesto (me costó unos 24$, algo caro pero estaba muy bueno). Increíble!! Mis amigos pidieron pastas con diferentes salsas, todas buenísimas!! We couldn't find a better place to eat in the Italian neighborhood!! 😍😍 We sat on the terrace, which was already quite charming. Upon entering I was surprised by the small size of the place and all the decoration themed in Italy, where shelves with Italian brand food could not be missing. To my surprise I found a GLUTEN FREE pasta. They gave us a 10 service, the lady who served me explained that they could make me GLUTEN-FREE pasta, in addition to the sauces I could choose. I have celiac disease, so I asked about cross contamination and they told me that they took it into account. I ordered spaghetti with pesto sauce (It cost me $24, it was expensive but it was very good). Incredible!! My friends ordered pasta with different sauces, all delicious

We dropped in for an impromptu date night and we’re really pleased! We split the sea scallops and the pork ossobuco. Presentation was very thoughtful and each bite was delicious. Wine was good also! We didn’t plan on dessert, but they brought cream brûlée on the house! I’m gluten free and they had plenty of options. Everything was spectacular! We’ll be back for another date night and I’ll have to check out brunch!

Lias Was Here

We'd eaten here almost exactly a year ago and really loved the gluten free and vegan options so we tried it again. Ordered the mediterranean chicken, shrimp, lamb and falafel rice bowls for takeout. Didn't bother checking the order as we waited for it and were in communication with the cashier at the time who let us know our order was ready. Get home and they switched the shrimp for some gyro seeming meat and didn't bother to label the lamb and chicken which looked suspiciously similar. The person who ordered the chicken last year couldn't eat their dish as it seemed to be way over spiced. The person who ordered the shrimp was understandably disappointed but it was too far and too late to go back. Will not order from Healthyish again as it was a very sad meal - with the exception of the falafel bowl which was delicious.
