Top 50 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Enjoy in Wellington

Reuben FillMyGobbs

I was there an hour 40mins ago and bought brownie cheesecake slice and a Mince & Cheese pie which they heated up from cold for me, made today apparently. Together they cost me $17.50!! There are no prices displayed so if you're going here expecting to be satisfied on a typical NZ bakery budget then think again, the gluten free premium is rife here. Do note the lack of stars on this review reflects only on the pie of which I'm disappointed, I am half way through the pie now and I still haven't tasted the filling. For what I'm guessing is a $9 pie it's not up to par compared to much better pies in the Wellington region that are cheaper and packed to the brim with filling. Speaking of which I've gotten to the filling at last and it tastes great but still no sign of cheese. Upon finishing the pie now my conclusion is there's less than 1 teaspoon of cheese in this pie. Sorry guys but my experience of a most basic pie is lacklustre. Unlikely this review will directly affect your high rating but pie wanters should know what to expect.

Had a delicious brunch here when staying in Wellington. I'm gluten free and items were clearly marked on the menu, there was plenty to choose from. Service was very friendly and food was quick. Good value for money in my opinion as the servings were generous.

We stopped into this punk cafe after a movie and were delighted that it was still open and had gluten free options. Seems like a great place to just hang out and enjoy the vibes of the city!

My local cafe and possibly my favourite cafe ever. As a celiac they have an amazing range of gluten free options. The food and coffee are delicious and the staff are amazing and so friendly. It also feels like a really welcoming place to bring my kids; they have a box of toys and coloring in to offer. I go there often and can't recommend this place enough!

Amazing staff. A real treat with separate fryer for us coeliac people. I had the hashbrown, pesto, avacado and balsamic glaze. Yuuuum!! Loved how many amazing toys there for child-friendly eating

Daniel Fisher

Menu has changed with less gluten free/dairy free options.

Marc Torrey

Had an excellent gluten free fish and chips. GF batter and dedicated fryer produced a delectable, non-greasy batter-dipped fish and accompanying fries. Super helpful wait person too!

Abi Brook-Miller

It was delightful. Thanks so much for the excellent service. Food was great, Gluten free options were mean and the kids were welcomed with smiles. That doesn't always happen!

Matt Clarke

Nice staff. Excellent food with great gluten-free food. Going back there definitely..

Pilates Plus NZ

We had a fantastic brekkie here and highly recommend this wonderful spot. Great menu with several coeliac-friendly options. The staff are friendly, professional and attentive to detail. I had the hot smoked salmon eggs Benedict and loved the GF bread used as the base. I only like super-hard poached eggs and these guys cooked them perfectly. The coffee (Havana) is great and the room has a funky and relaxed vibe, with a great outlook over Lyall Bay beach and the airport. You can watch planes and ferries come and go while you relax! We got a GF lemon and blueberry cheesecake to take away for later - absolutely delicious. We will be back next time we’re in Wellington!

Never been here before and I will certainly make this my Otaki café of choice. Amazing choice for gluten free folk, & eaters of all food! Outside eating was my favourite under the shade of the trees. Staff were attentive, delicious food was soon at our table.

anne callaghan

Burger Wisconsin in Paraparaumu is hansdown the best takeaway food joint I have ever been to. Me and my family went for a road trip to Paraparaumu today and decided we would stop here for lunch straight of the bat as a young teen boy with a dairy allergy, I was treated with a friendly atmosphere with highly respectfull, kind, empathetic and understanding stuff. I was allowed to create my own burger that wasn't specifically on the menu that was gluten and dairy free, with staff double checking. The food was more than amazing and well worth the price, which may seem a little bit steap at first but let me tell you, for ingredients that are handmade right at the shop, dietary inclusivity and understanding and outstandingly tasty burgers it is well worth it. The only downside is the space of the restaurant being a little small and cramped which meant we had to do takeaway but that didn't bother us. It is safe to say I will be recommending burger wisconsin to my family and will definitely be returning to burger wisconsin when i return to Paraparaumu next.

John Litvin

Jesse Drabble

Such a great staple of Wellington. Good coffee and some solid gluten free options. The staff are wonderful 🥰

Kelly Gray

Just enjoy being here, good menu. Only suggestion would be to add more gluten free and dairy free options

Sharon Simpkin

Great coffee. Gluten free cheese scones!!! Interesting cabinet food alongside the menu.

jaimie jamieson

Very nice food, quick service for how busy it was. Only downfall is they don’t really have any gluten free options so I opted for the omelette which was super filling and delicious! Dressing on the salad was also very tasty. Would definitely eat here again 😊

Megan Ross

One of the only places we trust and can go to as coeliacs. There are options and the staff are very understanding and helpful.

Rebecca Riley

Good coffee, best food. Always impressed by how many gluten-free & vegan options are available. If it's cake you're after, I recommend a visit on Thursday or Sunday. Possibly my imagination but the cakes seem even better than usual!

Oberzocker 511

Cozy little coffee off Statehighway 1 shortly after Wellington. The coffee shares the same driveway than the plantshop. Has plenty of parking, Gluten-free options.Tasty food and coffee, friendly staff and fast service. Certainly worth the detour and worth it, reasonable prices too. Cheers

Brett Reid

Never had Sri Lankan food before, but the flavours were delicious. Gluten free friendly. Informed and helpful staff. The tea sommelier was very knowledgeable. We went for Burger Wellington and would happily return for three-course menu.

Kelly Gray

Love this place. Team are awesome. Only reason not 5 stars, music is a bit too loud. They understand why gluten free is so important. So totally coeliac friendly

Hannah Mcmurchie

Unfortunately, not a good experience today for lunch. The service was slow and full of errors. We were brought the wrong food, and then incorrectly served a gluten free version on a meal. Three of us at the table and all three were served sperately with large lags between dishes coming out. My meal did not arrive in time to eat there and I had to take it take away at 2.45. Sadly won't be returning 😞

Otinel Meszaros

I had the big cook-up. It was great. I was hungry and it hit the spot. My wife is gluten, dairy, nut, egg free. She ordered the coconut salad and said it was great too. Nice view as well

Casey Bowden

A member of our group was coeliac and appreciated the range of gluten free options. We couldn't tell that there were gluten free options before we went to order and it would have been nice if they were better indicated. Staff friendly. Appreciated the variety of local art on display as we recognized one of the artists.

Amy Jefferies

Amazing service today- such a nice lady Catered to all our dietary needs (vegan, gluten free, allergic to garlic and onion) Definitely recommend going for high tea- delicious array of food and a good amount too. Will be going back!

Dianne Haswell

Lovely coffee and Gluten Free Friand. Good service with a smile 😊

Veronica OGrady

Positive - the menu offered gluten free options and appreciated being able to eat safely as I am a celiac. Negative - for a beautiful Wellington day with women’s expo across at TSB and a cruise ship docked, the level of staffing was not right. Service was slow, with a rushed and harassed customer experience. Had to wait to be served, seated, order taken and food to be delivered. Even asking where our food was difficult because the server clearly thought everyone else waiting meant we shouldn’t query. She said she would go check but we never saw her again. For a simple order of two bowls of fried and cheesy bread and eggs on gf toast, it shouldn’t be a 30 min wait. Negative - our food eventually came out lukewarm. So it had been cooked but sitting somewhere waiting for a server to bring out. The chips looked amazing but barely warm. My eggs on gf toast was terrible. The gf toast was as hard as a rock and no butter on it. I feel ripped off that such a simple dish was served below average and not worth the money I spent on it. The outdoor seating area was messy with uncleared dishes and food waste on the ground. It wasn’t a welcoming place to eat and I’d be hesitant to take my family there again.

Louise Bourne

Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here, the vegan/gluten free vege filled pancake was absolutely delicious, and huge! Lovely staff/service. Will definitely be back.
