Top 26 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Delight in Peoria

Been there twice while visiting the areas. Had the gluten free. Erosion of the waffles and California Club. Both were very good. No issues.

It pains me to write this review as less than five stars because it has been my go-to place for years. We even had our wedding party breakfast at the Avondale location the morning after our wedding back in December 2021. I have Celiac and need gluten free food that is also safe from cross-contamination. If you're the same, this review is for you. I don't know for sure but it seems as though ownership changed since 2021. The menu no longer mentions gluten free, other than a gluten free bun is an additional cost. Most recently the BBQ sauce they purchase changed to a sauce that contains gluten so my favorite item I get every time I go there, the Kinda Famous Texan Burger, or is it Almost Famous? Anyway, I can't eat it with BBQ sauce or the onions so it's a basic burger to me now. It's very sad. I wish they would go back to putting an effort and focus on their gluten free patrons.

The food was amazing! They had a lot of gluten-free options, I got steak and parmesan fries and they were so good, the steak was super tender. For the cakes they have 2 gluten-free options, I got the godiva chocolate cheesecake and it was the best cake I’ve ever had in a restaurant! I’m picky what comes to cakes but this cake just melted in my mouth. Thank you!!

Great food, busy atmosphere, staff that cared and maintained efficiency. Love their gluten sensitive options, especially the PIZOOKIE!! Appreciate that dessert was not forgotten for us gluten free people!! Santa Fe Salad with blackened salmon and a gluten free bacon cheese burger with fries

I have to say I'm a little disappointed in our experience here last night. I had been given a glowing recommendation for this place. It wasn't anything major, just a few little things. I have to say our server, Summer, was great. It was a Sunday night, so prior to heading over we checked their website for a waitlist option. They had one! We put ourselves on the list and were told we were the only ones, so we drove straight up there. The entry was packed when we arrived. We told the host that we were on the waitlist. Even though the website said we were the only ones on the list, she told us it would be an hour wait. She was nice enough to suggest we eat in the bar area as it was first come, first served and we accepted that option. They had plenty of gluten free options for my wife, which was a huge plus. Our server was quick to take our orders, and was very helpful with my wife's allergies. She came by and checked on us several times during the excessive hour and 10 minute wait for our food. When the food came out, I expressed to my wife that my steak was luke-warm and she said hers was similar, but I was hungry so I started eating. After only 5 minutes or so, another runner came to the table with our exact same food and seemed shocked that we already had food. I told him my food was cold and I'd be happy to trade it for the literally steaming copy of my steak he had on his plate. He told me he would check if he could do that and then disappeared never to return. I noticed my wife hadn't touched her side, and realized one of her allergens had made it on the plate. Our server was incredibly quick to resolve that issue once she was alerted. Overall it was just a bit frustrating to have the website mislead us on the wait time, the food to take over an hour to arrive, the food to not be hot when it arrived, to be ignored when we indicated the food was not hot, and to have had one of the side dishes come prepared improperly. The food tasted good and the server really seemed to do her best to help us out where she could. Edit: I emailed you screenshots of the wait-list option from your website. It was an option after clicking "reservations" on your home page. I also sent you a screenshot of the text I received confirming my name on the wait-list.

Wouldn’t let us serve grandma’s 80th birthday gluten free cake. Yet they sell no gluten free cake. Sad when people don’t make basic accommodations. Poor policies and service. The servers had much more common sense than the manager and apologized for the silliness. Anyway, having to pass out cupcakes outside with old people in walkers us just ridiculous.

Server pointed out gluten free options for my wife!

If I could give this place 100 stars I would! This is really allergy friendly with gluten free, nut free, and dairy free options! Highly recommend😍🤤

Love love love!! Came here two nights in a row while visiting AZ. They have a good amount of gluten free options for me. Their drinks are delicious! Food is tasty and great portions! Staff were super friendly! Clean restaurant and loved the vibe.

CELIAC SAFE!

Hooray for a great West Side coffee shop! I enjoyed a perfectly crafted vanilla bean latte and solid avocado toast - with gluten free bread! 🙏🏻💕 (Thank you for having gf bread on hand!). They also have an entire, separate case for gluten-free. Rock on Bully Brew! Super cute shop with comfy chairs and an extra, quieter section at the back. A large table for a group in the front. Definitely a great choice for a quick bite or a place to stay for a bit.

Great food and service, but I was shocked to spend $40 on just two Tito's with club soda—an exorbitant price for one person. For context, the mimosa flight I bought for my para to celebrate her outstanding role as a substitute teacher was less than the two drinks I ordered. My gluten-free order also came with hash browns, As a loyal customer who regularly brings my school team here to celebrate, this experience was disappointing. I hope Hash Kitchen addresses these concerns to maintain their usual high standards. However, Mr. Sullivan reached out in less than 24 hours and was incredibly professional, kind, and knowledgeable. He addressed my concerns promptly and resolved the issue, which I truly appreciate. This level of customer service is rare nowadays and reminded me of the upscale restaurants of the 70s, where individualized care for patrons was the norm. It’s refreshing to see a business prioritize its customers like this, and it has restored my confidence in Hash Kitchen. I look forward to returning with my team.

Marcell was such a sweetheart and the food was delicious! He offered a gluten-free english muffin to my dad when he couldn’t have bread products. Such a reliable breakfast place, thank you!!

Just a pretty good experience. The chef made my gluten free pancakes absolutely tiny but otherwise all was about as expected.

T Frost

The food was fab, the service unmatched from the host to our server, and the atmosphere was perfect with good spacing of seating along with seasonal decorations. If the owners read this, make sure you let Yas know she made our visit the best. Best smile and had answers for all of our questions with superb patience. This place has Gluten-free also, not what you would expect for a place called Biscuits!

EVERYTHING VERY RICH.... I WOULD LIKE GLUTEN FREE BREAD

Last night was the first time my husband and I went to this restaurant. Their kitchen is not dedicated gluten free and their menu tells you to notify your server if you have Celiac (like me, in this case). Their menu calls out gluten free options and our server confirmed they have a dedicated fryer for fries. I got the Millionaire Burger and it was delicious. However, the bun was "too good" and I asked the server which brand of gf bun they use there. Apparently it's UDIs, but I suspect it wasn't. About three hours after our meal, my suspicions were confirmed when I got heavily sick as a result of my meal. I'm giving this restaurant two stars because the server was really attentive to my husband and I, and even gave us to-go waters for our drive home. But, I still got glutened

We went to the Sicilian Butcher for my daughter's #25 birthday. Food was delicious .Our waitress Mariel was amazing. She made sure we were happy and satisfied with our meals. She even gave us an appetizer . They gave my daughter a birthday cannoli. With a candle to sing happy birthday to her❤️ one of my daughter has a gluten allergy so it was nice that they do have a Gluten free dishes. We were seated outside on the patio and they had the heaters on so we were comfortable. Before we were done the manager came by to make sure were satisfied very nice gentleman..Highly recommend this restaurant. Its perfect for any occasion whether it's for a romantic date or a family birthday celebration.

1st time at this location and I really enjoyed it. They were a little busy, but was expected due to the holidays. Even with the it being busy, vI was still seated within a few minutes. My table was still a little dirty, but I was not bothered. It seems as if they were short staffed. Once again that was expected. They still did a really good job with being short staffed. One thing that really bugged me didn't have anything to do with the staff, which was actually rude customers sitting at the table next to me who were complaining about every single little thing. They just seemed very miserable and wanted to make the staff miserable along with them. I felt really bad for their server who was actually my server as well. I made sure to leave him a good tip! The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because of the table still being semi dirty. Otherwise very friendly staff and quality gluten free food!

Went in last night May 1st. Food was great and service was great. It was great to see the staff's faces which is the reason we tried your restaurant out in the first place. Great Gluten Free options for myself too. We will be back!

I was recently diagnose with celiac. I keep making mistakes when I order food. Today I oversee tacos from Brush fire forgot to change the tortilla from floor to corn. I was willing to pay for 2 more tacos. They where very remade the tacos with corn tortilla no charge. Very good people and place. :) Thank you Brush fire for accommodating me. You guys are awesome! For gluten free recommend steak the bowl and papas bravas, and corn tortilla for tacos steak, chicken very good. I haven’t got sick at all.

I have now been to this special Italian restaurant where everything is authentic and made fresh. Their flour comes from Italy both GF and regular. I have celiac. Their pizza and bread dough is fluffy, light and delicious. I always have a delightful meal!

We have enjoyed Charley's at the Lakes many times since they opened about a year ago. It is a beautiful setting that is only enhanced by great service, wonderful food, good drinks and a lot of fun. They offer Gluten Free buns and are knowledgeable about gluten free needs. The prices are decent and nearly every night there is some kind of live music. I hear they offer a brunch on weekends, have to try that too.. Can't say enough good things about Charley's at the Lakes. Hope to see you there soon!

Matt Butler

Had a great visit. My wife has celiac and even though they don't have a gluten-free menu, they were very accommodating for her needs.

A great breakfast place usually, I have heard. Unfortunately my experience wasn’t the greatest. Myself and my two kids are celiac, and each of us ordered from the Gluten Free menu. Both of my kids got their meals, however, I only received half of my breakfast. I had ordered the full GF Belgian waffle meal. The server came back to the table three times as the meal progressed assuring me that my waffle would be out in 30 seconds. We were at our table eating for well over 30 minutes, with the manager coming by twice to explain that the waffle machine plates broke and that my waffle would be ready in minutes. After 40 minutes, everyone was done their meals and waiting for my waffle. When I spoke with the manager she assured me (third time for her, 6th time for staff) that it would be coming out soon. Sorry, but 40 minutes is too long to wait for half or a meal. To their credit, they offered to “make it right” by discounting my meal, because “I didn’t get half of it.” I’ll never know what really happened, but I won’t be going back to this location. The wait staff did seemed very chaotic and overwhelmed. The half of my breakfast I did eat was a great tasting American home style breakfast. Need a Gluten free menu? You may or may not get some or all of it. That was my experience.
