Top 50 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots Across Auckland

Emily The Coeliac

Could not recommend the attic enough! They are amazing and so careful!

Courtney Radmall

My family and I came here for breakfast and loved it. It is almost 100% gluten free excited for the whey oats they use in their porridge. It is all plant based so I thought my young kids might not like it but everything we ordered we all devoured. Perfect breakfast place for celiacs.

Hayley Glover

Amazing spot! Fab for coeliacs / gf folk and anyone else to enjoy. Hubby said his burger was the best smash burger he's ever had, and the milkshakes were very naughty and yum 😍 Service was so so friendly, the guys working here are absolutely wonderful.

Victoria Lawson

My husband and I went here because we were in the area and saw that it had good reviews. I am gluten free (coeliac). The menu was clearly labelled and almost the whole menu was gluten free, including unique options like fried chicken and onion bahji. They were very friendly and welcoming. They also seemed very mindful of dietary requirements, including cross-contamination. We had the cassava fries, 31 masala chicken curry, goat curry and paneer saagwala. Everything was delicious and flavourful. I would especially recommend the goat curry. Thank you for a lovely meal!!

Andrew Tan

They have excellent GF muffins. The place is really quaint. Staff were friendly and on to it regarding celiac issues. Great!

Victoria

Love coming here - which I do often! The food is delish and there are so many gluten free options which is fantastic for me as a Coeliac. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere too.

Thomas Hendricks

Incredibly well-managed and very good service at a locally-owned restaurant that truly knows their stuff with keto, coeliac-safe, low FODMAP and other nutritional needs. In two years of living locally and eating here monthly or at least quarterly, we’ve never had a problem with an order nor a bad experience.

Angelica Jones

I absolutely love this place, I feel like I'm In Japan again with the serenity and lovely customer service. The food is so tasty and fresh and so well priced!!! I absolutely love the onigiris and the sweet food they have in their cabinet (mostly all vegan and gluten free which is a bonus!!). If you have dietary restrictions this is definitely the place to try, especially if you like japanese cuisine. All the drinks are organic and better yet there are so many non caffeine drinks, sesame latte is my favorite!! A little bit nutty and smooth!! I absolutely love the cinnamon banana bread, the best vegan gf one I've ever had! Janken is a must try, especially if you want to come to a peaceful atmosphere filled with joy!!

Karen Searle

Finally a Cafe that caters for allergies! Specifically for me, most of the menu could be catered as gluten free and I wasn't disappointed. The menu was varied, not just the normal Cafe staples which was so refreshing and the staff were lovely. A lovely lunch on my last day in New Zealand. One happy tourist and if I were a local I'd be a regular. 😁

Aimee Bradley

Amazing service - especially with the care taken to accommodate allergies to gluten and dairy. Our waiter remembered the allergies on our table even when we came around to ordering dessert. The owners were lovely and warm - and took the time to chat with us at our table as we celebrated our wedding anniversary. Delicious food - would absolutely recommend!

Natalie Doherty

Really yummy mostly gluten-free food. Lots of parking. Staff are really friendly. I've been here twice for lunch now and it doesn't disappoint.

Pierre RIFF (PierreR)

Great food, great coffee Several gluten-free option

jaimie jamieson

Very good experience, food was great and they take gluten allergies serious

Rebecca McFadzien

My boyfriend & I had a lovely dining experience here recently. Our waitress Hannah was so attentive to our dietary restrictions (Coeliac) and it was clear she genuinely cared. The same goes for the talented chefs in the kitchen, who were super patient and understanding and took the Coeliacs/gluten allergy very seriously. Thank you all for making this such a lovely date night for us! We’ll definitely be back.

Saskia Scott

I was in town with family for a couple of days, we discovered Honey Cafe the first morning and ended up returning the next morning because it was so delicious! The mince & toast was the nicest I've ever had (so good I had it twice)🤤 I had gluten free toast and was impressed it wasn't the usual vogels but thick wedges. My sister had the classic (salmon) bagel GF both days as well, others in the party had French toast and creamy mushrooms...we were all delighted with our meals. Service was great and atmosphere was lovely. Highly recommend!

Tracey L

Delicious wine and food matched 6 course set menu. They even had a gluten free option. So good, we loved it.

Guido Locher

First time here,friendly service,good gluten free options and Eggs Benedict best in a long time with good serving.

Cate McCallum

Food was amazing! I wish I'd remembered to take some photos. The only let down was service was a little slow- as in getting drinks initially and then the tables weren't cleared at all...but the food came out quickly and I'd go back again simply for the food options! 4 of us are coeliac and there were so many dishes that were either gluten free or could be modified for us 😍

Harley McGregor

Delicious gluten free crepes!

F W

As a gluten free diner this place is amazing. Gluten free dumplings were fantastic - so tasty. Can’t wait to come back again!

Anna Speranskaia

Such amazing hospitality, they ran out of gluten free bread and had someone go out and get me some, thank you for a delicious meal team! Will be coming back :)

Sarah Gähwiler

Excellent food and drinks. Nice vibe. Very friendly staff. Food is very healthy, all freshly made and so yummie. They are vegetarian but lots of their dishes are vegan or can be made vegan. As far as I saw there are also many glutenfree options. I hope I can visit again sometime.

Jo Munro

Food was served quickly and as always, tasted great. I really appreciate that you can make the burger gluten-free

Josh Currie

This place was amazing, the service was exceptional and very attentive despite it being fully booked. They catered for me being a celiac including having a separate deep frier. The food was delicious and my family and I had such a lovely evening.

Alice

a lovely lunch! mexican bowl was super yummy and salad fresh. GF establishment which was great for a friend who is celiac.

Jess Lomberg

Delicious food. Heaps of gluten free/coeliac friendly options. Very friendly staff.

Flynt R

Fantastic food and so much of the menu is Gluten Free! Service was smashing, super friendly staff and very efficient. If I was staying in Auckland longer, I’d come back again.

Kate Hall

A gem of a spot! Delicious food, thankful for their yum gluten free options especially.

Lorraine Maguire

If someone is giving out awards The Shelf should get one. Amazing food and great value. Fast service. Lots of gluten free choices that made me happy. Our go to cafe when we visit Auckland city.

Lori K.

Awesome service, good food and very accommodating for food allergies. Nice selection of Gluten free options. Our server, Tye and Chef Robin went above and beyond on great customer service. A nice welcome to New Zealand for us!

Grace Hessian

One of my absolute favourite spots for coffee, dinner, lunch, drinks. Good for vegans and gluten free and the most wonderful staff. I adore going in for a chat and they always are so welcoming! The sangria is great to share and the soup and hummus platter have the most amazing flavours and good for sharing!

Zsombor Pirok

I ordered gluten free burgers and I specifically signalled to the store via Uber Eats that the burger needs to be gluten free (clicked gf bun and gluten allergy) as my partner has cealiac - we ordered the bacon backfire for her. When the order arrived we were suspicious as gf was not checkmarked on the box but the bun looked gluten free when compared to another gf burger. Tried to call the store for half an hour but they just did not answer the phone. After my partner tried the burger she immediately got sick due to the gluten in the burger which was not supposed to be there. Seems like ticking the gluten allergy checkmark does not matter in the Albany store - in other Burger fuel stores this never happened before... Stay away from Albany if you have an allergy!

Had dinner last night at El Greco and we absolutely loved the experience. From the warm and friendly staff, to the comfortable outdoor seating, to the amazing food, everything was exceptional. We had a quiet dog and this was fine. Flat surfaces, so ok for wheelchairs too. Our fried has celiacs and this also was not a problem. I loved the Italian lagers (it was great to have another option, rather than just Peroni). The 7 ⭐️ Metaxa was similar to a Cognac, full of flavours and a great way to finish the night over dessert. Nice wine selections too. Really enjoyed all the food - souvlaki, squid, pasta. Lots of generous amounts of salad. My only feedback would be to only use vegetables that are in season. Brussel sprouts are not in season now, which means they’re probably cooked from frozen and we found them mushy. Apart from that we loved everything about dining here and would highly recommend it to others. Graci!

Linda Gribble

What a little gem! They have a number of Gluten Free dishes, which attracted me to try them in the first place. Food was absolutely delicious, staff super friendly and service was quick. Plenty of parking at rear, off Moselle Ave. This will definitely now be my "go to" local cafe.

Paul Preston

Standard motorway auto stop. Clean and tidy. Pricey gluten free food.

Emily Stokes

Great lunch venue. Lots of gluten free and no added gluten options. GF bread made on premises. Friendly service.

Julie B

Gluten-free toast ,had eggs and bacon. Very helpful 🙂

Tobias Bircumshaw

Gareth the waiter was absolutely wonderful, he really put us at ease in the environment and was amazing with my coeliac disease. The escargot was great! Thanks so much for a great night chefs and Gareth, you were great and deserve a hefty raise!

kate phat

Great place. Food was great, but a bit slow. They have separate menu for gluten free dishes too.

Rachel Waid

Wonderful lunch. Got there early and outside courtyard is all first come first serve. Snacks served until 11:30 then full bistro menu. Beautiful views of wonderful, helpful and attentive staff! Lots of gluten free options, crackers and bread not on menu but available! Got cheese and crackers and then shared a couple plates. The whole fish in hot and sour broth was amazing, crispy squid was gluten free. Lovely time and def would return!

Sasha Hovinga

Great little spot in Pukekohe, fantastic cabinet food and menu items. I love how you take a seat and they come take your order. Accommodating when questioning ingredient items and they do amazing raw, vegan, gluten free and keto options, not heaps, but enough so you have a choice. I had the Creamy Market Mushrooms minus the toast, and a large coconut milk coffee over ice. Both amazing, and so many mushrooms I could not finish. I also got a takeaway ginger slice and macadamia slice.

Megan Stericker

Delicious fried chicken (gluten free)! Really cool atmosphere and location.

Laus

Ok I’ve passed this place 1,000s of times but have never eaten here. Man I’ve been sleeping because it’s sooo delicious. I ordered the fried chicken poke bowl that was already gluten free, because I cannot pass up on gluten free fried chicken. UGH this was delicious. The sweet sauce they had on it, the half avo, the generous ginger, the chicken was crunchy. Could’ve had more rice, but overall, so delicious. We sat outside in the sun which was lovely, and sheltered from the wind. My daughter enjoyed the little playground down below. We also ordered fries on the side that were crunchy and delicious. Cabinet food also looked good - mainly sweet stuff and a lovely Carmel gluten free slice. But I was too full to order it. Would come again 10/10.

Karen Paton-Baker

The GF cheese scones looked nice - to my coeliac husband's delight, so I had one too. Disappointingly, they were very salty and unpalatable.

Andrew Johnson (AJ)

Terrific serving sizes and great food with a variety of Mediterranean favorites. Prices are at the higher end - almost $40 for a tagine - but flavors are great and you're not going to leave hungry. They also do doggy bag take home boxes if you can't finish it. 🤣 My dining partner eats gluten free and commented that there's heaps on the menu if you're unable to eat gluten, which is great to know!

Turbo 91

Been there twice over the last few months, always great service and very delicious creative food options aswell as decent (iced) coffee. Also a good selection of delicious Gluten- free meals and desserts. I highly recommend trying their sweet Buckwheat waffles and the vanilla cheesecake. 👌 I also like their outside tables on the sidewalk beside a quiet street, at least on the weekends. Prices and quality match. I recommend trying it out yourself ☺️ Cheers

Ian Sharplin

WOW!! If you happen to be a foodie looking for the best of flavours and quality and service this is definitely the Cafe for you. My yummy wife agrees that 'The creamy mushrooms and bacon' are a 20 out of 10 and all the meals are so well presented and delicious and really top class. Clark is the Superchef and together with his very own "Lois Lane," who is the darlingest hostess, they will make your heart and your tummy very warm and content. Even the gluten free options are really lovely and if you are looking for excellent coffee, look no further! We gave it 5 stars 'cause that's all that's available. I don't usually give reviews......BUT MAN, CHECK THIS OUT.. YOU WILL ENJOY A TREAT! DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR. Ian and Sue

Brigitte Dunbar

We came for a team dinner. There were 7 of us. We highly rated the organic chicken and short rib. They were just delicious. One of our team members is a celiac and had a reaction from the chicken dish. Although she had specified that she was a celiac at the time of ordering, and asked the server delivering her meal to make sure, she was still "glutened". Unsure what went wrong there, but Giraffe may need to assess their processes when handling gluten.

Amy Eagles

Lovely service from Sophia. Knowledgeable on the coeliac-safe options and catered to the kids’ fussy requests

Cheyenne Oliver

Really enjoyed my meal, glad to see there were many gluten free options. Our server Barbara was very accomodating to our tables dietary requirements and was really friendly. Looking forward to our next visit.
