Top 35 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Enjoy in Northside, Houston

Marcus Arceneaux

I ordered through Uber Eats. The food quality was FANTASTIC. Love the gluten-free options. I even appreciate the containers the food came in. I'll order more often. Thank you for QUALITY.

This was a pretty neat place. My husband and I both enjoyed our food. They were able to accommodate my food sensitivities. The bee sting pancakes which are seasonal were really good. Was able to get them in gluten free. Their chicken sausage was good as well. My husband tried the pineapple upside down pancakes (not gluten free) and loved them. Looking forward to dining in again and trying other options

Sandeep Bang

Lots of gluten-free vegan options. Kids pizza was ok. Everything else was great!

Ronald Obmaces

This is definitely the BEST Filipino restaurant in Houston, probably Texas too. Their food is super tasty and doesn't look like a pile of slop like typical Filipino food does. They are also super accommodating to food allergies which I have yet to encounter another Filipino restaurant that does, especially gluten. Highly recommend the fried rice, lechon, cola adobo, wings, bistek, bbq skewers, any of their cocktails, and of course their Halo Halo!

First visit but will return. Chicken satay was delicious and loved the cucumber relish and the peanut sauces. Server was very nice & took excellent care of us. She even brought my husband extra spicy dips for his food! Server was also helpful with one of our group who must eat gluten free.

Crisp is super yummmmy !! I really enjoy their gluten free pizzas and I’m gluten free . Love the drinks as well. Parking isn’t bad which is good, solid three stalls in the bathroom . The music isn’t super loud , The outside is nice on a good weather day. Happy hour is the way to go as the GF crust is an extra $6 which is steep tbh.

Local Foods is a go-to spot for fresh, flavorful meals, and as a celiac girlie, I love that they offer clearly labeled gluten-free options! The ingredients are always high-quality, and their salads, bowls, and sandwiches (on GF bread!) never disappoint. The staff is also super helpful when it comes to dietary restrictions, which makes dining here such a stress-free experience. If you’re looking for a delicious and safe gluten-free meal in a casual yet stylish setting, this is the place!

Delicious gluten free choices

The brunch food is okay and a bit overpriced. The drinks are amazing though and the staff is super friendly! They have gluten free options marked on the menu.

Postino is such a great place to have happy hour with friends. Their patio is outfitted for the Houston weather, so you can enjoy the ambiance of The Heights year-round. Their wine selection is massive, and the servers always have great suggestions on which ones to get. They also have delicious charcuterie boards and appetizers. The bruschetta is a must, and there are gluten-free bread options for those of us with intolerances! Five stars!

Jason Holmes

How I long to savor the flavors of the Heights again, especially during lunch or brunch. My vegan gluten-free waffle with vegan whip, strawberries, blueberries, and smoked salmon with honey drizzle was a taste of pure delight. Lauren was our waitress and she treated us great. #heaven #foodie #heightshouston

Theresa Pugh

Every morsel was delicious! Fantastic gluten free options (thank you!) and everything made better by $2 mimosas for brunch.

Morgan Clarke

(Review from a very sensitive celiac - gluten free) We have been going to both Lua Viet locations for over a year and it is always a super pleasant expirence. The admiral shrimp vermicelli is my go to, with the shrimp spring rolls (get the fish sauce to make gf). The employees are always fantastic and the food is 10/10. Definitely give this place a shot!

Thalia Kruger

No gluten free options for breakfast, no turkey bacon....

Calynn Lock

Delicious food. Loved the Thai chicken Taco. Taco Tuesday is a great deal, some tacos are 2 and 3 dollars when they are normally 4 and up. They also could do some tacos gluten free, you just have to ask. (Does not include Thai chicken, but they had some awesome options). My mother with celiac was taken care of here and after eating here twice she did not react so I would say this place is safe for people with celiac just ask about menu items before hand.

Kasey Morgan

Lovely dinner there this evening. My friend and I are both gluten free. Our server was very knowledgeable and accommodating. We enjoyed the deviled eggs appetizer which was divine and I had the pork chop for dinner. The portion was enormous and the pork was very tender. The potatoes cooked in duck fat were also delicious. Would 100% recommend.

Samantha Galvan

One of my favorite shops especially for the drive thru, frozen coffee, and service. The macarons are like a cherry on top. It would be AMAZING if their oatmeal cream pies were gluten friendly, because they look so delicious. The lack of gluten friendly options is the only downside. Of course they wouldn't be entirely gluten free, but that's ok for me (and likely many other people). The employees are always great even when you can tell they aren't at their best. They're always professional, polite, and kind. The only reason I have the atmosphere 4 *'s is the acoustics- it can get loud in there fast. But just like this rating, it's a personal opinion. Objectively, many small spaces get loud fast, so there's practically no helping it without making major changes. That's one reason I like the big patio. Still, I love this place! I hope it will be there for a long time! Edited to add: There's no changing table in the RR btw!

Todd Lehman

I had the bbq burger bowl. That's a good option for those of us who are gluten intolerant.

Heather Cheung

Delicious! Great gluten free linguine in the frutti di mare. Most gluten free pasta that I’ve had at restaurants taste tacky or just not good, but this tasted like regular pasta. I like how they spoon the red pepper. It’s very generous and tasty!

Jason Bolerjack

Went there early Saturday morning...was the only customer I saw. Really hard to explain how a place known for breakfast can be so bad at it. Eggs and bacon both undercooked a bit. Hash browns were somehow hard as a rock, and yet still undercooked and cold. Amazingly, the only good part was the gluten free pancakes. The service was good though.

Kaitlyn Barton

Quality food and even better service. A member of my dining party is gluten intolerant and our waiter personally highlighted a menu for her. Like, took out an actual highlighter and made a personalized menu notating what was safe to eat. Top notch. I suggest family style ordering, that way you can taste more of the menu (and you want to taste more of the menu). Breads and pastas are made fresh, in-house daily. The menu changes seasonally, so every time I go I get to discover something new! Cocktails are amazing, which is to be expected by anything from Bobby Huegel. Squalbe is also part of a restaurant group that offers full health benefits for their employees. We truly love to see businesses doing right by their staff!

My son and I went to explore the annual Sunday Farmer's Market. With the crowd and the wonderful smells emanating from Onion Creek we HAD to go inside. It was a little confusing figuring out what we needed to do. There is no hostess to seat you. You have to seat yourself. There are no waitstaff to take your order. You place your order at the bar and they give you a number to take to your table. Luckily there is a little lounge area to sit while you wait for a table to become available. You need to claim your table fast. The staff comes to clean the table pretty fast. Your food is delivered to your table by the bartender or the table busboy. No one will bring you water. You have to get all your beverages from the bar. The crowd seemed to be made up of a lot of regulars who know the routine. Several TVs are mounted and many were tuned-in to the sports broadcast. Lots of beers on tap or choose from a selection of can ones. We discovered the FROZEN MOON which was refreshing and really good. Our food was really good too. I ended up looking up the menu on-line. I had no idea where the menu was in the restaurant. I didn't see any menus anywhere. I guess I could have asked the bartender for that too... I don't recommend it if you are in a rush or on a tight schedule. If you have a Sunday to linger and go with the flow then you'll love it. Lots of activity. Great food. Checkout the Farmer's Market: CBD, local coffee, vegetables, local honey, gluten-free cookies, handmade jewelry, art, handmade candles, plants and more!!! It's on the Onion Creek sight.

Melissa Tallent

Super cute with yummy crepes and a gluten free option!

Riya Santra

Very greatful for the gluten friendliness of this place. Albacore tuna was very fresh and tasty. Crab roll was delicious. Got the shio chicken ramen which honestly tasted like lemony chicken soup. The spicy shio was very flavorful though

jonathan coutinho

Portion sizes are a bit small for the price. Not enough gluten free choices.

Maria Prince

Excellent! Really good gluten free option

Joshua Wilson

My wife is gluten free and well taken care of here in the options they have and as for me ..... The chicken fried steak is so tender all you need is a fork to cut it.

Ashley Henderson

They have almond milk alternative which is nice. The people are friendly and helpful. They also have snacks and pastries. They carry Clean Sweets pastries which is for people with food allergies, gluten-free, dairy free, etc... Cool artsy vibe with couches to chill on.

jonathan coutinho

Offering gluten free bread or buns for their sandwiches. Also using coconut or avocado oils to cook with instead of seed oils.

John Hrncir

I've been to the one on Washington many times and love it. I was so thrilled to see they opened one closer to home. I love their fajitas, and their brunch is pretty darn good too. They have a good selection of gluten free items.

Olivia Klink

The food and drinks were amazing! When I ordered the s’mores board, I told the staff that I had Celiac Disease and they brought out gluten free graham crackers. I can say they definitely accommodate for us with Celiac. Highly recommend

Chelsea Jordan

I love their Pastor tacos because they have a bit of a fruity-ness to them. I'm sensitive to gluten but have had no problems with their tacos on corn tortillas, nor with their refried beans or Mexican rice. Cool atmosphere and a nice staff. Parking can be a pain, but there is a lot across the street near by.

Gaby Karr

So glad we discovered this new gem in the Heights. The food was stunning and delicious, the ambience was excellent and the staff were all incredibly kind and accommodating to my gluten allergy. We’ll definitely be back!

Matthew Smith

Lots of menu options for a smaller place, and good gluten-free options!

Francois Ruel

Good gluten free options, dedicated fryer form the chips. The steak for the fajitas was incredible.
