Top 36 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Delight in Vaughan

Leanne Gilbert

Soooooo good!! Highly recommend whether you need to eat gluten free or not! Super fresh, hot & fantastic tasting gluten free Chinese food. It's better than any "regular" Chinese food I'd had prior to being diagnosed celiac. Everything we tried was delicious - fried rice, chop suey, chicken balls, general tao chicken, etc. but my favourite was the honey garlic pork. Everything was so good we ordered more food for takeout to go along with our leftovers from dinner. Also a great selection of frozen items. It was well worth the hour & a half drive for us to get there & we'll definitely make the trip to get there a few times a year!

They had a lot of freezer items, and different shapes of gluten free pastas, which was nice to see. There were also a lot of lovely baked goods in the case. I read that they had GF beaver tails, so that's why I came. I was excited to try my first beaver tail (newcomer to Canada). When I got it, it was slightly warm on the edges, but refrigerator-cold and damp in the middle. My partner told me they are usually fried, so it should have been piping hot. It was disappointing. I was thinking about getting a sandwich, but overheard someone ask about getting pasta, but it would have taken 40 min for that. Surprising, since they use the dried pasta they sell to make it. I had some questions about items, but felt dismissed and almost belittled by the answers. I was off-put by the rude tone, and combined with my disappointing menu item, won't be back. I'm sure it's fine if you're just going for cookies or frozen goods, but some other folks and myself were wondering if someone was actually there. It took quite some time for the owner to come out from the back. Not sure if that's the norm- maybe they were short-staffed, but don't go unless you have lots of extra time to spare.

Best gluten free pancakes EVER!! Super accommodating to celiac disease.

Had a pleasant dinner at the Pickle Barrel at Vaughan Mills. Our server Vanessa was personable, helpful and offered the perfect level of attentiveness. We got the tomato (delicious!) and fish and chips (solid). The sticky toffee pudding and gluten free chocolate cake were also great. Would return.

Meh! Thank you for reading and responding to my quick comment. I chose the ground beef nachos because I am allergic to gluten. The portion was large, but they were salty for my taste and just run-of-the-mill bar fare. The dish was not bad, but I expected something more interesting that would align with the Jack Astor reputation.

Gluten free pizza was very good. Mushrooms on salad were overcooked and we asked for no cheese on one dish and initially it was served with cheese. They took it back without question and replaced it. They listened and thanked us for the feedback. Very good attitude by staff. I would come back and recommend

Absolutely delicious. Had the Shakshuka and it was fabulous with the gluten free bread which still held up to a good “scoop” of sauce. The only negative was watching all the other delicious “gluteny” foods going out that I couldn’t eat 😝 Coffee was excellent too, and I can be a bit of a coffee snob. I wish we lived here, I’d come every weekend.

They answered all of my questions about gluten free options and safety.

A true hidden gem! We stopped by before a business meeting to celebrate my partner’s birthday and were lucky to have the place to ourselves. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with an open kitchen concept that made the experience feel extra special. Our server was incredibly friendly and attentive — the service was top-tier. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. We ordered the shrimp tostada (a must-try!), the lamb, and the hen — all perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. Even the starter salad was memorable, with incredibly fresh ingredients. Every dish was a solid 10/10. To top it off, they surprised us with a gluten-free, dairy-free brownie to celebrate the birthday — a thoughtful touch that meant a lot, especially with my dietary restrictions. They were so mindful and accommodating. This spot checks all the boxes for me — can’t wait to come back!

First, we were seated promptly at 7 PM, but the evening quickly took a nosedive when the server informed us that they were *already* out of all appetizers. At 7 PM. For a restaurant that boasts an extensive menu, this was beyond disappointing and set the tone for what was to come. Things only got worse when we noticed that items clearly labeled as "gluten-free" on the menu were, in fact, *not gluten-free.* This is not just misleading—it’s dangerous. As someone who has a serious sensitivity to gluten, I trusted the menu and paid the price. I ended up getting severely sick after the meal, ruining not only my night but several days afterward. Adding insult to injury, they sneakily included a tip in the bill due to our party size (6 people) but failed to disclose this when presenting the check. They then tricked one of my friends into tipping a second time on top of the already included gratuity. This lack of transparency felt deceptive and unprofessional.

Pancakes were divine - a bite of heaven. I had the gluten free pancakes and was surprised at how good they tasted! Can’t wait to come back and try the other options

We hosted my future sister-in-law's Bridal Shower at 9Baci & we cannot say enough good things about the experience. 9Baci made it so easy by providing the linens, sweet card, backdrop & champagne wall. Along with those items we also got to pick which chargers, glasses & utensils we wanted for the night. We brought in our own flowers by all the decorating was done by the staff so when we got there as hosts, we just got to sit & enjoy! The food, as always, was next level. The Bride & I are both Celiac & the staff went above & beyond to ensure that we were safe to enjoy our meal. There was never a moment that there was an empty glass, a dirty dish on the table or anything wanting anything. The service was exceptional. Thank You to Cathy & her team for truly making this an unforgettable night.

My friends and I were looking for a place to eat and stopped at Earls. The restaurant closed at 12 am and we arrived by 11 pm. The hostesses informed us that the wait could take up to 30 min. Ten minutes later we were sitted. The waitress looked at us from the kitchen and complained to one of her friends that we had just arrived. She was the least welcome person I had seen and took our orders in a rush as the kitchen would close at 11.45 pm. We ordered fries to start and our dishes. The one I chose wasn't available so I had to pick something else. Right after that the fries and my dish arrived at the same time. My friends food took over 10 minutes to arrive and one of the dishes was a salad. The salad came with croutons, wich were not mentioned in the menu, and my friend, who is gluten intolerant, could not even eat her food, and at that point was too late to order something else. They took our drinks and they didn't ask if we wanted refills. The food was very average and my dish, that was a tortellini, had fettucinni pieces in it. Overall this was one of the worst experiences we had in the recent times in a restaurant. We won't be coming back and I don't recommend. There are better places in the premisses.

A really cool breakfast spot if you’re looking for some good breakfast and cool vibes. Kotsy’s looks like a really cool 80s diner with a modern menu. It offers a wide range of breakfast items and caters to dietary restrictions such as keto and gluten-free (although not many GF options). The breakfast is really filling and delicious. Would definitely return!

Kiran took great care of us during our brunch visit. He was on top of refills, clearing plates, and providing to-go boxes in such a timely matter. He was kind and would regularly check up on us. Angela was our initial waitress who took our order and she made sure our order was done right. My boyfriend is gluten sensitive so coming to Denny’s, they accommodated his allergies. Would definitely come back again

Good tasting food, good service. They were very amiable, and helped ensure whatever we ordered had gluten or not because of gluten-free family member. But it's pricy considering the serving size.
