Top 23 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Delight in Golden

Alex Meisner

Came in on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, and this place was definitely busy. The sandwiches we had were absolutely delicious, all ingredients were fresh. Better than the franchise competitors on the same street. The pumpkin bread was the best I’ve ever had, and it was gluten free. We had Arnold palmers which were perfect. I am so excited to come back and try more of the menu, including the coffee! Naiarah helped us out today and her service was exceptional! She went above and beyond during our experience. My fiancé and I spent our visit planing our many future trips to Windy Saddle this summer. A definite new Golden favorite! We won’t be coming to town again without stopping by Windy Saddle! I’m upset we’ve been missing out for too long!

I was really excited to go here for the gluten free options.i wasn't super impressed..tried the gf avocado toast. It was kinda tough, dry toast on a bed of lettuce. Super noisy if you're going for a conversation.

Went here last night and the food was great! I had the baked half chicken and it was the best baked chicken I’ve ever had. There are a ton of gluten free options. I also had the artichoke dip which was great. Service was amazing, wish I could call out the server.

Christine Smith

Disappointed in the gluten-free poke bowl options but they did a have separate paper to look at to understand the GF choices. It would be to have all GF options marked on the online menu. I had the Bahn Mi bowl, which was delicious.

Great not so hidden gem in Golden, CO. The Javelina is absolutely delicious, and you can buy fresh tortillas. For those who are gluten-free, you can partake in the deliciousness by getting the fixens in a bowl.

Great coffees and gluten free snacks. Very friendly staff & nice indoor and outdoor seating areas.

Cameron Nelson

The coffee is great. The baked goods are also hard to pass up each time I go in. I recommend the cinnamon rolls! Also, my wife has dairy and gluten allergies and they are very accommodating with orders. Staff is genuinely friendly. Can’t recommend Red Silo enough!

My favorite place to eat in Golden! The food is great and I always make a point to take visitors here. It's a glimmer of real authentic food that Golden unfortunately seems to be lacking. All the employees are friendly and make you feel like family. My favorite part is when Walter (the owner/chef) comes over to the table and asks "have you been here before?" before launching into his explanation about his beautiful pickled red cabbage to put on top. I haven't been back in since I was diagnosed with Celiac a few months ago but I made sure I had Xicamiti as my last glutenous burrito before going GF. Walter assured me he could prepare me gluten free food so I hope to return soon but I've been playing it safe so I can't comment on cross contamination/safety for fellow Celiacs.

Great little joint nearby the downtown and Golden History Park areas. We enjoyed the gluten free menu options as well as the warm hospitality.

First time here for lunch w friends. We had burgers, portobello, humus, and salad. Good flavor and attentive service. One friend requires GF (gluten free) options and ordered portobello not knowing it was a sandwich (did bot eat the bread), my vegetarians friend ate the salad and tasted the fries. I suggest to have more options for vegetarians and gluten free.

These raspberry gluten free scones are delicious! Bright and sunny inside.

Mixed review from our table. The good: The chicken pot pie was good The bad: Chili Relleno was cold (temp) nothing special for the price The ugly: buffalo burger was overcooked and the $4 up charge for a gluten free "bun" (2 pieces of normal GF bread) was a joke. Service was fine but I wouldn't say that the food is worth the money.

Parking can be a bit of a challenge at times, but they do have valet parking also. Interesting menu options including gluten free and vegan. Friendly service and Colorado vibe. We had the trout, carne asada, and shrimp fajitas. Bill was around $90 + added a tip.

My partner and I were visiting from Florida and a Golden local told us to check out Abejas. My partner has a latex allergy and I can't eat gluten. The server was very accommodating. She explained my gluten free options and she checked in the back and confirmed they used nitrile gloves. Our brunches were amazing. I had the Duck Confit Hash and my partner had the Potato Pancakes. Will definitely go back when I'm in town.

This review is intended to help people not have really stale gluten free bagels. I'm sure if you're not gluten free you will have a great experience. The service is very friendly and the atmosphere is nice. My coffee was good too. Why 2 stars ? It was my only day in the area and I wanted to go on a hike, so I stopped at this cute place to get a good breakfast. I took my gluten-free bagel sandwich to where I was going to hike and when I tried to eat it it was almost impossible. The bread was just so stale. I know gluten-free bread sometimes tastes stale to people but I've been gluten free for over a decade and this bread was really bad.

This place is fantastic! We went on a Sunday and got amazing service even though they were incredibly busy. We got the Breakfast sandwich and were able to sub in Gluten Free bread for someone in our party that has Celiac’s. Also got the Brisket Sausage Benedict, which was really good. And the hash browns were nice and crispy, and not greasy. Got the Iced Chai too, and that was really good. The prices are probably the most surprising part, being one of the most affordable places around. This is definitely a place I’ll be returning to often

Fun place, beautiful views, gluten free bun options. No vegan options unless editing menu. Very few vegetarian options except soup/salad. Even a black bean patty would have been nice. Food looked good and large portions. Staff was friendly and welcoming.

this was once an old parlor.i remember much of golden as it was 40 years ago. my kids and i were meandering down to the library today and were maybe going to backtrack to the windy saddle when we saw the denver biscuit company. i thought they might go in further down washington but they are here. much to my utter shock these guys have a self serve coffee station. this business gets it coffee nowadays is best left taken care by the person drinking it. we are gluten and dairy free but the denver biscuit company was worth the 2 or 3 hours after being sick. the biscuits are divine and just plain cozy! we had biscuits and gravy and it just me back to a time when my late husband and i would hop in the truck and go to town to get biscuits and gravy. thank you denver biscuit company.

This cafe is great!! Food was delicious, great price, and the wait staff was friendly and helpful! They even have gluten free toast!!

Doug Skiba

I just had my first burrito at Pablito’s after hearing a recommendation. The attendant was friendly and fast and accommodating for Celiac (he mentioned it when I inquired about gluten-free options—skipped the hasbrowns for the bowl because of shared frying surface). My extra-gluten burrito was one of the best damn burritos I’ve had, true to the name. I highly recommend checking it out. I will return. Good job, Pablito’s!

This place has added a 50 cent charge on all eggs on top of raising the cost of their food. The owner is rude and the graffiti walls are ridiculous. They've always just run out of the gluten free bread every time we've been. I ordered tacos and they were so greasy that the shell fell apart upon arrival and they were also out of sour cream. There's nothing on that menu under 12 dollars. I do not recommend this place. We've tried it a few times hoping they would be better the next time and they don't get better. Across the street is the rock rest and they have amazing food and service 😋

Excellent experience before a Red Rocks show. Vegetarian & celiac friendly. Great drink and food options for everyone. Perfect service and an amazing view!

Stanley Lapidus

This is the best Indian restaurant in the area. Meats are tender, samosas and naan are outstanding. So are the veg dishes. Our grandchildren love it as does my dairy-free/gluten-free wife. Gracious service, fair prices, warm vibe.
