Top 19 Gluten-Free Breakfast Spots to Enjoy in Cleveland

Briana Gamble

I want to love Town Hall, as someone who has food allergies (gluten, dairy, & soy), but the last 2 times my order was made wrong. Both times they contained one of my allergies - the first time a burger came with cheese and the second time I was given the keto bun instead of the gluten free bun which contains dairy. The first time it was refunded since I was already home. The second time I was close by when I realized and they made it again. Food allergies are nothing to mess with though and to advertise as accommodating but consistently make food wrong is very frustrating. There’s clearly a lack of knowledge from staff or protocols are lacking.

Fantastic Gluten-free Pancakes

Plenty of gluten free and vegan options. The food was fresh and tasted good. They have good milkshakes as well.

Clean cozy and welcoming. Has a table for 8 plus a few smaller tables for 2. The price was average for a small Independent coffee spot. Gluten free bakery items on hand usually

Brooke Crystaloski

The cafe I recently visited is truly the best I've ever experienced. It's my favorite go-to spot, offering amazing gluten-free options, vegan and organic dishes, and the most incredible variety of juices imaginable. Every visit is a delight, and I can't recommend it enough!

Elicia P

Great food. Made fresh. Has gluten free and vegan options. The bread and slather are always a great choice. Offers a kids menu. Does sell alcohol. Nice small patio with picnic tables. Service is hit or miss. Can order take out.

Scott Frank CR

We took a chance and stopped for brunch. Both of us are gluten free and the food was fantastic. The service was excellent as well!! Definitely recommend the brisket.

Jenny Kirk

Driving through Cleveland looking for healthy lunch options-gluten free. Solid solid Mediterranean bowls. Personable owner. Fast service. Great prices.

We enjoy coming here from time to time. In general, we’ve had good service, and the food has always been very tasty and reasonably priced. Parking is along the streets, but can be very close by. In nice weather, there is an outside patio area for seating under an awning, like many cafés in France. There are two main dining areas inside, a smaller cafe-like area and larger, more decorative dining room through a doorway. The dishes we had were not available in the selections list on Google. Those included le Champions (mushrooms) Bourguignon and the Crepe d’Ratatouille (vegetable stew) in a buckwheat crepe (gluten free). The latter has cheese, though I believe they would prepare it without cheese if asked. Our server was efficient and courteous. Getting older now and being later evening, I opted for decaf coffee, which wasn’t the best; it may be the worst thing I’ve had there, but is the exception overall.

Had a great lunch that was vegan and gluten free. We came up with substitutes for the fries since it was a shared fryer. The impossible burger was amazing.

Donald Ward

I have visited Punch Bowl Social for the second time and I will definitely be returning again! The service is excellent and the food is amazing! They offer a wide variety of gluten-free options on their menu.

Laurie Judson, REALTOR

Very cute place, I would love to hang out there but I was just moving through and grabbed a cinnamon sugar cookie that happened to be gluten free. If they make a cookie that dope, I figure I need to come back for some coffee!! It was THAT good! Thanks y’all ❤️❤️🙏

Marvin J. Miller

Great service, excellent food, generous portions, friendly staff, gluten free.

William Wolkoff

One of the best bakeries in Cleveland! I ordered a gluten free cake for my wife’s birthday, and it was fantastic!

Lia Atchison

All around a great place for a casual dining experience. Love the food, especially the variety of burgers and unique toppings. Thank you for the gluten free options. They have awesome GF buns.

Kate London

A lovely place with excellent Mexican inspired foods. They label gluten free on the menu which is amazing.

Jill S

I love stopping here on my way home. The workers are so friendly. I have celiac disease and can't eat gluten. They were so friendly showing me what I can and can't eat.

Alayna Monachino

i love their wide variety of options and they even has gluten free and vegan donuts. Reasonably priced, love seeing them at the market sometimes too. 10/10 would recommend

Brandis Turnbull

We decided to go for the two most decadent sounding appetizers. Both the Krab Fries and Fried Green Tomatoes were not only amazing, not only vegan but also GLUTEN FREE. The fried green tomatoes were perfectly crisp, and the accompanying sauces and garnish were heavenly. The KRAB FRIES 🤤🤤🤤🤤🥲 literally brought a tear to my eye. I don't know what is in that cream sauce, but it tastes like the fanciest seafood chowder and really makes the dish. After devouring the generously portioned noshes, we decided to order the polenta grits and cheesecake to-go. Both were wonderful, and we will definitely return.

Sallie Ferlotti

We went to cheese school at Astoria! The cheese monger was sooo knowledgeable and energetic. The service was great. They accommodated my gluten free request. A very fun and delicious evening!

Michelle Crow

We were in Cleveland for a quick trip and needed a good restaurant for gluten-free food. I googled restaurants on our path, and this restaurant was suggested. We arrived about 1pm and did not have to wait to be seated. Our server, Bianka, immediately came to take care of us. She very thoroughly went over gluten-free options and even checked with the kitchen to make sure what we wanted was gluten-free. We did have to wait a bit for our food, but when we got it, we understood. This was hands down the best lunch we have ever had. My mom had the burger and fries. She said they were the best fries she had ever had. I had the lamb stew, and I was in food heaven. Overall, this was an amazing experience. We lived the atmosphere, our server, and the food. We will be back.

Delta Golf

Cafe inside Rays Indoor MTB Park was Gypsy Beans! Friendly staff at this location. Coffee was great. Gluten free options but nothing dairy free. They do have some vegan burrito but no idea what it consisted of. Baked goods looked SO yummy.

Eve Nicholas

I love this place! The food here is extremely healthy and very accommodating to my dietary restrictions including gluten and dairy. The staff is so welcoming and nice and made the entire experience so much better. 10/10 would come back.

Julie Famulare

Food is outstanding, we ate both breakfast and dinner here. The portion sizes are large, I highly recommend the hummus, it was delicious! They also have gluten free bread and rolls which was a bonus!

Lizzy MK

I love Metropolitan Coffee! Every time I have been here, the staff is always very kind and welcoming. They have great coffee and different housemade flavors. Also, they have wonderful and delicious food and dessert selections. (Good options also if you are gluten free!) Love it here, and have always felt very safe here even when I am picking up a coffee here by myself.

Parker Wilson

What a special place! We came for a medical visit and left with full bellies and happy hearts. Amazing service, above and beyond kindness and EPIC food! Gluten free magic too!

M A

We have had good coffee and scones and gluten free muffins here. We appreciate the local shop. We wish we could do self serve cream but otherwise it’s fabulous here.

Logan Carr

Visited Der Braumeister with my girlfriend to celebrate my birthday - it was a great experience! She has a gluten allergy, and we were super excited to see how many options she had on both the expansive food and drink menus. Our dinners were delicious and our server Angie was wonderful.

April Frank

My coffee spot in CLE. My favorite Cold Brew and gluten free muffin stop. Would love a GF breakfast sammich next. Appreciate the plants and albums!

Tour Guide Cory

Iced Vanilla Latte was great! Friendly staff. They were understaffed and felt faster than starbucks when busy. Also, they have some gluten free baked goods from philomena.

Ken Ilg

Don't be turned off by the quirky ordering system--you get a menu at your table and then order both your drinks and food at the hostess station--this place is WORTH IT. Modern, clean, cool staff, varied menu. Our family of vegetarians (including one gluten free) had our stomachs stuffed and our taste buds rocked. I've had a lot of house-made veggie burgers (usually soggy black bean paste); this was BY FAR the best veggie burger I've had. It was just like a Big Mac. The roasted Brussels sprouts were amazing. Just an incredible culinary experience. Do I wish they had table service? Yes, because I'm lazy. But, push through your laziness and embrace this place. Best food I've had in a looooong time.

Ludmila McNeeley

Everything here was exceptional! The food , the service, and the atmosphere. The kitchen and staff went above and beyond to accommodate my gluten allergy and even prepared GF bread to accompany my salad. Definitely recommend and hope to return soon

Ryan Giorgio

Great coffee. I ordered a gluten-free blueberry tart and I'll be dreaming about it for weeks. So good.

Kate London

Claims to have gluten free bagels on their sign but I check each time I come though and the last time they actually carried them was October of 2022.

Jenny donahue

This is such a cute place to dine!! The atmosphere is very comfortable & cozy with much appealing decor to look at, including artwork from the owner! The food is delicious with perfect portions! They WANT to know your food allergies and are very accommodating. I am dairy free, gluten free, potato free, and corn free, and had zero issues finding anything I could eat right off their menu. The owner is so super friendly & wonderful! Highly recommend!!

Jordan Kern

Great place with wonderful people. I go there quite a bit for their breakfast and am always pleased. My goto is the Marc's Brothers. They carry gluten free bread which is a rarity for most establishments. I must also admit their sausage is better than Bob Evan's! If you go you must try their pancakes and waffles as well. They are excellent.

Ben Sager

This place is very nice. Very accommodating and knowledgeable of gluten free. The manager even made sure the remade my breakfast sandwich when they realized it was cut with the wrong knife. I would recommend to anyone for breakfast or brunch.

Teddi S

We were greeted by Danita who was very polite and welcoming. She made small talk and did he job as a hostess. Our server Laura, who was very attentive, guided us through the menu and also made sure to address my gluten restrictions. It's the small things that really speak volumes. The restaurant was pretty dead for a Saturday night. There were just two other tables besides us. We started with the truffle parmessan Brussel Sprouts and they were delicious. I ordered the Grilled Akura Salmon. I would say that it was a solid 6. Basically it's just a grilled piece of Salmon with asparagus on a top of a saffron corn cream which was not very flavorful. My friend got a black bean burger and she seemed to have enjoyed it. We also got a few drinks. Initially we got the turn which was okay. If you like a good balance of liquor to mix I would stay away from this. The simple syrup took over the flavor. My friend Initially ordered The Cle upon the servers suggestion but it was really sour. She ended up ordering Summer Thyme in Cleveland and she suggested that I bet the Blueberry Hill since the Turn was just subpar and I want drinking it. I told her that I was fine and didn't want to send it back but ended up ordering the blueberry hill which was really good if you like bourbon. Overall the experience and great and the atmosphere was very nice though people checking into the hotel did get a bit annoying.

Sirius Infernal

I absolutely LOVE it here. My husband and I just recently discovered 27 Club after picking up the latest copy of Scene Magazine. Due to medical conditions, I frustratingly have to avoid both gluten and dairy. This limits my options at most restaurants & cafes. When I saw the menu here, I was stunned. We got a Margherita pizza with vegan cheese and gluten free crust…it was the best I’ve ever had! My husband, who does NOT have dietary restrictions, said he couldn’t even tell that it was gluten free or dairy free. The drinks are gorgeous. I highly recommend the pink milk latte with oat milk! Make sure you pick up some merch and do not miss the vegan + gluten free desserts that are on the counter, off to the side. We tried the donuts and not only were they tasty, but they weren’t too heavy. I left feeling great. This is a must-visit for the sensitive stomach girlies! Parking is surprisingly decent for the location. Atmosphere is social media worthy and very on brand for MGK. Already looking forward to going back.

I didn't take pics but will next time! The coffee is deliciousness... the staff a delight & helpful, friendly & fun! My gluten free cookies were TASTY AF & the space is a Tremont GEM. SO HAPPY TO HAVE THEM!

Lauren CT

I love this spot! It has a warm and inviting vibe. The food is so fresh and delicious. The cocoa chai was incredible. The staff is very accommodating to my gluten free, dairy free dietary restrictions. I highly recommend!

Helen Ertin

So to be fair, I’ve never actually been here in person - BUT I had a coupon for DoorDash and I stumbled upon Milk + Honey. I was so happy to see they offer gluten-free options! The drinks are BEYOND beautiful and delicious. The breakfast bagels are reasonably priced. If you love coffee and tea, you’ll love the creative drinks!

Kayla McGhee

We came to Cleveland for a show at playhouse square. This place was within walking distance and had gluten free pizza! It is bar far one of the best gluten free pizzas we have ever had!! so good.

Courtney Stout

Very delish smoothies. Super cute inside. All ingredients are vegan and gluten free. Friendly staff!

Mary Kennedy

I got just cmeatcabd extras I'm gluten-free so its really hard to eat in the a e kind of places. But , they make an effort 🙄 not to cross contamination, because in this world that is almost impossible even in your own home .so I get the meat and whatever else for the sandwich I want take it home and transfer to my bread almost as good .

Sev Buchta

Cute, clean coffee shop with a small selection of food and baked goods. Gluten-free and vegan options are available. There's a wall of small/medium plants for sale with care instructions all lined up at the back. Passed the vibe check.

Saw this place the last time I drove down from Detroit and was like that spot look cute and whatevah. Do I added it to the list. I drove down to take photos of the city after getting some new film and after was hungry af so decided to hit wm up. Went in originally thinking g I was gonna do the bacon egg and cheese breakfast Bagel but saw they had a smoked salmon when I arrived and was like OMG😳. (Hige salmon lover here) so I got it instead with the honey walnut schmear, still not sure what it was but It was good lol 🙊. I got a small coffee to go with to help warm my hands. The coffee could had been stronger. It was a tad weak for my taste but the service and food made up. I forgot to order the Oj but it looked good must be local just judging off the packaging. They're only open from 6-1 and the service was pretty speedy. There's a nice table thing you can lean against while you wait not sure if they allow folks to eat I side but most were eating in their cars outside but some outdoor seating could be useful but I can see where that could be a burden. They have a huge assortment of bagels and a decent variety of sandwiches. Even vegan and gluten free options. Definitely recommend. Parking is easy and they accept tap to pay.

Laura Bergner Owens

Great place to watch sports and have a bite to eat. Lots of craft beer on tap -- Great Lakes, Fat Head's, Dog Fish Head, etc. Gluten-free beer and hard cider were available too! Full menu available on their website. Great service from our waitress & the bar. The food presentation was nice, large portions and very reasonably priced. My husband's Italian Beef sandwich looked fantastic, but the tots were a little greasy & undercooked. I got the Shrimp & Lobster Lettuce Cups. Ask for the clarified butter and sauce on the side if you want to keep it a healthy option. It had quinoa, rice and lots of scrimp and lobster. Felt like I was at the beach, but too much clarified butter. Will ask for it on the side next time. Seems like a great place to hang out. Easy to get to and close to the airport.

Melissa provided perfect breakfast service! Our food was out within minutes and prepared with the modifications we needed (gluten free bread, no red onions). The food was simple but delicious and fresh. Well done all around!

Lee Patrick Drummond

Good food for an airport and had lots of gluten free options, which is nice because travelling with Celiac sucks.
