Top 50 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Enjoy in Boston

Molly McCown

Thank you for changing gloves when handling the gluten free cannoli. Much, much appreciated :)

Lucy Huang

Risotto is delicious and gluten free. Our waitress recommended brussel sprouts for appetizers, which was 🔥

Amber Easterling

This is a Top 9 Allergen Free Bakery, which is hard to find. I really enjoyed the cookie dough cupcake and my sister had the strawberry french toast cupcake.

Fred Lybrand

Ask for what’s fresh! I was so Excited for gluten free donuts doughnuts 🍩 I asked for what I wanted - what I should’ve done is ask for what’s fresh! Or freshest? 2 of the 6 I ordered weren’t fresh anymore. They were a little stale. And the coconut oil - which I was really excited about - had gone a little rancid. Who knew? Maybe they should toss things out quicker? Or maybe GF don’t have the shelf stability. I will definitely be back - for the blueberry, the plain cake, and the plain + chocolate, but I may never eat coconut donut again. Also, the jelly stuffed was really brittle, dry and crumbly. I did make it in right at closing ~ 2 pm.

Lynn Sweet

GF fryer! Say less.

Michaela Hummer

Tuesdays are full gluten free nights!

Lexi Howell

Excellent experience here. Ordered a burger with GF bun and fries. No problems.

Vanessa Weeks

Great breakfast items. Fast service and great Gluten Free options.

Lexi Shaw

Delicious gluten free French toast! Place was packed with a long line outside, but service was fast for the amount of people there. Food was worth the wait! Seating is tight and probably not a lot of room for strollers or wheelchairs, I’d call ahead to make sure.

Matthew Fanning

Everything we ate was fantastic. My wife is gluten free, one of the managers marked up a menu to layout her choices. Highly recommend the house made ricotta!! A bit loud, but that’s because everyone was enjoying themselves.

Amber Easterling

They offer a small selection of gluten friendly baked goods. There is a risk of cross contamination due to shared areas.

Keith Dosik

This place is so cool! Great vibes, friendly and quick servers plus the food is fantastic. All of the gluten free options are delicious, especially the churros. It was really fun to be able to eat tacos and oysters at the same time.

Israela Brill-Cass

Service was great but we went specifically for the gluten free desserts and they only ok. We went closer to closing as well so they may have run out but their website mentioned lots of gf desserts and the only one available was chocolate cake which good but not great (they’re also a chain so I know options can be limited by location). Probably worth trying if you can get non-gf options.

Daniel

The flavors are generally pretty complimentary and I am appreciative of the high-quality gluten-free pasta with celiac-friendly preparation. The atmosphere leaves something to be desired in two aspects: 1: the somewhat arrogant pricing 2: the customer conveyor-belt style service flow - they are trying to fit as many seatings as possible into each evening and do everything they possibly can to get people in & out in under an hour - seems a bit self-defeating when they are selling $65+ bottles of wine Worth it if you go in expecting to order light, get one drink, and move on. Definitely find somewhere else if you'd like to enjoy multiple courses and make an evening of it though.

Lindsay Kelsey

They have lots of gluten free options as well as accommodations - both food and drink was absolutely delicious. I got the Greek lemon and rice soup, Mexicali Salad, and Raspberry Lemon Sparkler

My family and I went here the day after Thanksgiving as a special holiday trip since we live over an hour away from Boston and turned out to be the best place we could've chosen! I made a reservation through the OpenTable reservation app and when we arrived at the restaurant they seated us right away. The hostess was amazing as when we first arrived we didn't like where our table was placed, and then when we moved to another it was right next to the kitchen, where the music played very loudly. Not making an enjoyable place to order. Luckily though, the hostess was kind enough to move us a 2nd time to a booth and made sure we were all set and comfortable! I truly have never had that happen in a restaurant before but our hostess was so kind and patient even when it was very busy. She went above and beyond. After getting seated and finding a perfect spot for my family, our server Addison was kind and amazing. She made sure to give us time to decide what to get as it was our first time there and even went out of her way to make my sister and I a drink they did not have on the menu. My sister really wanted a daiquiri but couldn't consume alcohol at the time so Addison let us know she could make something for us based on what they had at the bar and was a lemonade base, which my sister wanted. She came back with a house-made peach lemonade and even added an orange slice garnish to give it the daiquiri feel and was so accommodating and went above and beyond! After some time of ordering our appetizers and entrees, Addison made sure to check in on us and ask if we needed anything even when it was super busy and a full house. Later after finishing our food and all of us requesting a to-go box, Addison made sure to get us the correct size boxes for our leftovers and even gave us a bag and willingly helped us bag up our food in a to-go bag provided by the restaurant. I rarely try new places during the holidays, especially on a Friday night, which is when we went, but this restaurant was an amazing choice and I highly recommend it! The dishes we ordered were super flavorful and probably the best restaurant I've tried in Boston when it comes to a simple American menu. It is such a family-friendly restaurant and very warm and inviting. I would be willing to drive over an hour again just to come back with my family and friends. Another thing I really enjoyed about this restaurant aside from the service and food is their ability to offer both vegetarian AND gluten-free options as one of my sisters is gluten-free while the other is vegetarian. The restaurant has so many options and took my sibling's modifications seriously. My gluten-free sister also reported that her food was very good, which is rare as a lot of restaurants we've tried do not have tasty gluten-free options/dishes. The photos down below show my family's order being; the Korean Sticky Pork Ribs, 2 BPH burgers, 1 Beyond Vegetable Burger, a side of the seasonal sautéed vegetables, and 1 Fish and Chips entree. Overall, if anyone ever wants to try something new with their family, or even go by themselves, I highly recommend this place and their Korean Sticky Pork Ribs and the Fish and Chips!

Amber Easterling

One of my favorite places to eat when visiting Boston! Gluten-free fish and chips is very hard to come by! I appreciate their “gluten free promise” for safe GF food!

Rebecca Redinger

Gluten free by choice and they have some of the best flavored and texted GF pizza crust! The Green Monster Pizza was light and refreshing!

Garrett R

This is one of my favorite lunch spots, especially as someone with a glue analogy. They have lots of gluten-free options. I got the Christopher Robin on a gluten-free bagel and it was delicious. Sandwiches come with a small side of salad and breakfast potatoes which are both really good. I normally order ahead as it can be very busy in there and seating can be limited because it is extremely popular and the inside is not huge so best to plan ahead. Would very much recommend.

McKersin

Great Gluten Free Vegan cupcakes.

I loved the inclusive environment of Mother Juice. The workers were so kind and helpful and the food was great. The service was quick and overall the area in general was very tidy. I found it super cool how everything was compostable, vegan and gluten-free.

mohamed AbdAllah

Great for a breakfast or a snack time, I went there to do some work. Gluten free options

D Dopfel

Nice cafe with a bunch of gluten-free snack options that have come in handy for me. Coffee and tea drinks are all good, but not standout. Can be hard to find a place to sit as it is always pretty crowded. However, we've always been able to get a place to sit without too much of a wait when we decide to stay. I had the gluten-free chocolate tart, which was rich, chocolaty, and not too sweet. The London fog was acceptable but seemed a bit underbrewed as the earl grey didn't come through strong enough for my taste

Ishy Shah

The place was nice however the options for gluten free with the bread choose was terrible. It was hard and the avocado toast with the GF bread was flavorless. So disappointed :(

Veve Bubble

Big place, lot of gluten free, vegan and dairy free option. Got spicy soup, turkey sandwich, chicken salad sandwich, salmon avocado toast, warm cider.

Antonio Gutiérrez

Boston restaurant with gluten-free options. Variety of burgers and very friendly waiters. Recommended

Katerina Steele

Coming from Chicago, we've been struggling to find a proper brunch experience in the Boston area (meaning elevated breakfast dishes, with interesting ingredients that are both delicious and well made). The search is over! This place is excellent with great food, a marvelous atmosphere and great service. Plan for reservations, though, as this place is popular! They also did a phenomenal job accommodating gluten free with a lot of care for cross contamination.

Mike Berger

Thanks for gluten-free options!

Courtney Mitchell

WARNING - do not go here if you have allergies. After speaking with multiple staff members, including the manager, was told my meal (salad) would be fine. I opened the salad at home to see a piece of bread on top (I have celiac). Do not recommend if you have any dietary restrictions.

Carolina B

Excelente!! Thank you Lulu Green staff for a warm welcome and service. We had huevos rojos, am acabo bowl, yuca fries and a chocolate cheesecake. Everything was delicious, especially the cake 🍰 Always happy to get vegan and gluten free well made food. Keep it up!

Lorna Vaughen

Everything but their sandwiches are gluten free. They are 100% vegan. Their nut-butter oatmeal is amazing! They even have gluten free waffles. All their juices are made fresh and you can tell.

Larissa W

My mom & I are traveling and stopped here to eat dinner. We spoke with Benson (Manager) who was very knowledgeable and caring to help my mother who has SEVERE celiac. We got seated and ordered. They gave my mom a gluten free menu and she ordered the pasta with chicken and sausage. My mom loved it and was satisfied. Benson came back to check on us and we had such a lovely conversation with her. We will be coming back! Thanks again, Benson!!

Das mit Abstand beste Lokal in Boston, sowohl für Frühstück als auch für Mittag! Noch zwar ein Geheimtipp, gleichwohl muss man sich auf ein wenig Wartezeit einstellen, denn dieses Kleinod im Northend hat nur wenig Plätze! Nicht nur große Portionen und leckeres Essen locken hier, auch die Möglichkeit, glutenfrei zu essen Ist in Boston doch noch sehr selten. Die Bedienung ist auf Zack und sehr freundlich, das Essen kommt recht zügig. Einzig der Kaffee wird für alle Italiener eine Enttäuschung sein. Achtung: Bezahlung nur mit Bargeld möglich, wer einen Geldautomaten sucht, wird lange Wege zurück legen müssen…

John H

Excellent spot for anyone with celiacs. Had a bird on fire with gf bread, delicious, no reaction. Please come to Virginia, Blunch! 100% will be back.

Gopal Chopra

Vibrant coffee place with superb fruity caramel dark roast and excellent service Gluten free bagels woohoo!!

Adam K.

Great restaurant and tasty meals. We had the nachos as our app and Corned beef sandwich with fries and my wife and daughter had sandwiches. They had gluten free buns which was good for my daughter. We would return again. Finding a parking spot is a challenge since the streets have signs that say permit parking only for the local residents.

Katie Frank

If I could give this 10 stars I would. The food was absolutely phenomenal. I have celiac and I need to eat fully gluten free and I felt safe here. They marked up their normal menu with all of the naturally gluten free items I could eat, which was about 80% of the menu including desserts. It was delicious and made even better by being allergen friendly.

Renee Vielleux

We were encouraged by family to visit Tatte Bakery and Cafe and it did not disappoint! We went to the Pier 4 location and not only was the food was wonderful, the staff was, too, including a kind and pleasant server named Victoria, who was so helpful! It was a great experience! We especially were happy to see how well they cater to dietary needs, with a wide selection of gluten free options. We’ll be back for sure.

Rick Vattimo

Really loved it. Had a pastrami sandwich on gluten free bread, which was unexpected and great. Bag of chips and a local side for a reasonable price. In The Boston Public Market, which is pretty good for lunch . Nice atmosphere, better food than the Hall around the corner. And this is one of the better places for lunch inside. Dude making the sandwiches has made a few in his time.. added to the “ambience”.

Nita J

Perfect place for great american food. It can get awfully loud especially if you aren’t sitting at the bar. Great place to please all types of eaters. Great place to bring your gluten free friends as well.

Elisabeth Kirk

Jessica was great! Super sweet and helpful with finding gluten free food options.

Ash

I am allergic to gluten and this is my go to breakfast and brunch place. Fantastic food and service, staff is super nice and knowledgeable about allergies. Outdoor seating is a long the Sounthwest Corridor and they have bubbles/heat lamps on colder days.

Lawrence Palmer

I came to Mooo Beacon Hill with my mother and father to celebrate their 25th anniversary. Food aside, which was fantastic, this restaurant really went above and beyond to make their night special. The menus we received were printed with a special happy anniversary message at the top, our waiter congratulated my parents when we were sat, and the kitchen even sent out a small dessert on the house (gluten free for my mother I might add which the restaurant was not informed of ahead of time) that that beautiful chocolate calligraphy saying happy 25th anniversary. These small but meaningful actions that Mooo went out of their way to do really made their night special and one we will never forget. So thank you Mooo! And for anyone else considering eating here, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better restaurant in my opinion.

Tara Hutchens

Our server was amazing, super sweet and accommodating to our party with gluten allergies and beyond efficient and knowledgeable…will definitely be back and will definitely request to sit in Tess section again!

Shelly Quatrine

I appreciated the service and good knowledge of the menu. The only bummer was no gluten free crackers since my group ordered a very tasty charcuterie. I'd definitely go back.....especially for the fabulous cocktail choices

Meredith LeTourneau

BEST place to get Mexican food near Newbury. The staff and employees are so nice and accommodating. I asked the owner if their tortillas are gluten free and he went into the back to check the ingredient list and everything. They weren't but they offer a bowl option and the owner told the employee serving me to offer me a discount because of the inconvenience. Also prices are CHEAP. $9 dollars for a whole burrito. This is the place to go.

Danielle Burton

Gluten Free Beware 😭 I visited about 2pm and every single gluten free product was sold out except for a brownie. Not to mention they had run out of the gluten free soup, muffin and even iced tea…. The employee was extremely kind and caring, tried her best to make my experience better. Super impressed with your staff and will give you all another chance, but please, us gluten free friends are so desperate and it’s really a bummer not to be able to eat anything except a salad.

Nataly Perez

Their Saigon banh mi was exactly what I needed after a hangover. Sooo delicious. I will say it was a very long wait but the barista + staff were attentive and apologetic. Their drinks were flavorful and unique. Gluten free pastries also available!

LJ C

Several very good gluten-free options in the bakery case, including a fudge brownie with walnuts, raspberry tea cake, coffee caramel mousse, and vanilla lime krembo. Prices are reasonable and staff helpful and friendly.
