Top 31 Gluten-Free Burger Joints to Relish in Portland

Amanda Newman

I do not have celiacs and am not gluten intolerant. The chicken strips are one of the best chicken I've had in my life, gluten-free or not. They were so moist yet crispy and crunchy; I would come back for just the chicken strips. But the beer too! My partner and I had three different kinds and loved all of them. If you're in the area, gluten-sensitive or not, stop in! It's amazing.

This is the best vegan and gluten free food in Portland! Please open another location in SE!! I’d be here every day if it was closer.

Absolutely amazing food! The burger was awesome the fries were on point. The chicken tenders were a little over cooked but lots of variety for gluten free options. The Marionberry lemonade is on point! I will definitely be back. Delicious food and great service! They even have an outdoor eating area.

Choosing to sit in the bar area during a busy, rainy Saturday was the right move. We were able to immediately get a seat and service was fast despite how busy they were. I tried their gluten free beer and it was really good - so many others are terrible. My husband loves their IPAs so he was in heaven.

Vegan celiac here! I’m lucky Red Robin is my husband’s favorite restaurant, because they always know how to make sure I eat well and safely. Shout out to our server Hana for tonight’s dinner! Our party had a bunch of dietary requirements and she handled it great, went back to the kitchen multiple times to make sure we all got what we needed.

Not my 1st time BUT stayed till l8 2 play TRIVIA w my friend and her hubby! My friend LOVED LOVED LOVED the gluten free choices and the Gluten Free Beer!

Very busy, in a slightly crowded space, my friend and I waited about 20 minutes for a table. She had the egg scramble and I had a breakfast sandwich. Sides of potatoes were good and grits excellent. My sandwich was decent, with some nice flavors, should have gotten the bacon. The scramble was huge and full of veggies. Waiter was very nice and helpful dealing with my friend's gluten issues. This wasn't my 1st time here, but 1st in a while.

The fact that this place does gluten free fried chicken with a DEDICATED FRYER has me hooked. I love having that knowledge that this space will be somewhere I can safely eat without worry! Delicious chicken cooked in a great sauce. Quick service for a Saturday afternoon as well. Very happy about that! Space inside is pretty small, so I definitely recommend opting to sit outside. The burger was cooked to medium, and was very juicy. Cocktails were also excellent. This place has a great happy hour menu as well if you find yourself searching the more budget friendly option. So many gluten free options to chose from on this menu, I would definitely recommend!

The service was great but the food wasn't as good as I remembered. The fries were somewhat cold, the gluten free bun seemed stale, and the original order was wrong. It's still better than McDonald's but for the price I'd rather go to Shake Shack.

Just grateful that if you have issues with gluten or dairy (or in my case, both) but need something on the go you can actually get a burger (with cheese, just sub for their Vegan Pepperjack), fries AND a vegan shake (with WHIP if you feelin' fancy) 👏 (Heads up though, its gonna cost ya, so just hang onto your panties the first time you hear the total.) The staff is also always really cool about the substitutions and I'm grateful they have never once made me feel like the total pain the behind, even though I'm sure it probably is. So kudos to Burgerville for having enough options on the menu to cater to a pretty broad number of food issues, and the staff to provide it in a friendly way. I've also had very few issues with errors, which happens a lot elsewhere.

The best readily accessible fast food around. Especially if you’re gluten free.

We came here specifically came here for the gluten free buns. My daughter has celiac, we made it very clear her burger had to be on a gluten free bun, and paid the 1$ extra. Her burger was not on a gluten free bun. Don’t come here if you have celiac, I don’t know why you guys would carry gluten free products if you guys don’t take it seriously. The fry’s were really small portion as well for being 4$ and extremely salty. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Chrissy Andersen

Good burgers and we appreciate the choices of gluten free buns and chicken burgers. Our server Xaykham was awesome!!

This place is a jem! The Elvis milkshakes are addicting and made to perfection! They have gluten free hamburger buns. Employees are always kind and professional. Only wish the outside heater didn’t omit such strong gas smell. One of my boyfriend and i’s favorite mom and pops stop for date nights, it’s fantastic!

Bianka Spruill

A great delicious choice in Terminal D. Gluten-free buns! My teen said the bacon burgers were amazing.

Emily Turner

I had the mikes hot honey chicken sandwich and it was so good. My friend got one of the burgers with the gluten free bun and she enjoyed hers too :)

Church Bar is born again and this revival is well worth the wait! The NEW Church Bar was resurrected and opened on April 15, 2022 I am in awe of the new owners (Lauren and Anthony) for all their dedication to beautifying Church Bar!! They have put heir heart and souls into completely updating the interior and rebranding Church. Their attention to detail is glorious! Their carefully created cocktail list is diverse and offers a little bit of something for everyone. They also have a wide spectrum of draft beers as well as seltzer and cider offerings. Their daily slushies are joyous and tasty! Their food menu is great with a little of something for everyone! I LOVE everything on the menu and trust me, I’ve tried everything!! I love to start with the delectable deviled eggs and the tantalizing sacred nuts! Mercy me! The ribletts and Shoestring Sweet Onions (V/GF) are two of my absolute favorite go-tos! The shoestring fries are thinly sliced onions marinated in buttermilk,dredged in seasoned flour then fried, served with ranch dressing. Every time I eat them, I am certain that I am in culinary heaven. The Fried Spaghetti Squash (Roasted spaghetti squash, herbs, mixed cheese, leeks served with smoked tomato sauce) is another favorite of mine! They have plenty of gluten-free and vegan options available. They also have occasional food pop-up such as Trinidad and ??? Food. Check out their Instagram for PopUp info #churchbarpdx Check out the ceiling- it’s unique representation of the Sistine Chapel! And the bar top is a beautiful “river” of color. The new owners had it custom coded yes one more unique beautiful aspect of the newly reborn Church Bar! The “confessional” is a photo booth. We’ve made so many fun memories in the “confessional” Church has a huge array DJ’s that provide lively dancing music every night. They have extended their hours and hours constantly reinventing themselves. They’ve added trivia on Wednesday nights and they have a fairly regular stream of pop up food options. Follow them on social media for updates, special events, pop-up info The revival of Church Bar is awe-inspiring! Huge shout out to all the friends, family and customers that continue to support Church Bar - especially during this seemingly never ending pandemic purgatory. I beseech you to join me in helping making Church Bar hugely successful. I have faith that their efforts will payoff in dividends and they will have faithful followers. Eat + Drink + Repent Time to repent! Father forgive me for I may have drinking on a Thursday! #churchbarpdx

I ordered a veggie burger with a gf bun (have celiac) and when my order came out they game me a regular bun and when I told them I ordered it with a gf one they didn’t apologize and then decided to mention that the veggie patty had gluten in it as well, so yeah kinda annoying and this place isn’t celiac safe fyi for yall. I had also mentioned I had an allergy to so yeah.

Accidentally time traveled to this nostalgic drive-in diner today. It was the bee's knees. If you are in the mood for a no frills burger spot, Skyline is it. The diner has an easy going, casual atmosphere.. no muss..no fuss.. You can literally come here in your pajamas and no one will care. I could hardly believe my eyes to find a diner in the middle of the woods that has gluten free options on the menu. It is true. Soft, fluffy legit burger buns too. I got the cheeseburger, potato salad, and indulged in a cherry coke. Everything was perfect. This place is frozen in time and serves as a reminder of days gone by. There happened to be a few beautiful classic cars parked outside that gave it an extra vintage vibe. There is booth style seating inside and a lovely covered dining area outside. The friendly servers were busy flying around feeding lots of hungry bellies. We got there early so we got a table right away, but the place filled up quickly. There was a line out the door so I have to hand it the entire staff for getting this many people fed. I was baffled by some of the other negative reviews. It does prove that you should always give a place a try yourself before believing all the digital trash talk. In an effort to have a local spot's back, I have addressed some of those issues below. You may read other reviews about the prices, but this place is no different than any other place in America. To be fair, prices have gone up everywhere. This local place has not been spared from inflation and cannot operate at a loss folks. If it is too costly for you, no shame. It is okay to eat somewhere better aligned with your budget, but it is not okay to rate them low based on the price of food. Don't get your poodle skirt in a twist... everything is up. You may have also seen the post about not enough salt... you know what, there is a salt shaker right there on the table. Give that thing a little shaky shake. As for the "cup not being pleasing" " poor food presentation" & "frowning servers" .. It is just a cup. It is a good food in a basket. Food services employees are proned to burn out. They are human beings that deserve respect. They are not paid enough to put up with abuse, judgement, or entitlement. If you want fancy smancy food and servers with fake smiles, pretending to like you so you tip them, choose a different restaurant. Or better yet, eat at home. If there is an issue, tell the staff to their face and give them a chance to make it right before blasting them on the internet. People can easily come up with a million complaints, but rarely a single solution. No, the bathrooms nor the building are wheelchair accessible so plan accordingly. The building is old and unfortunately disabled folks were not considered during construction planning for any building in the 1930s. Ableism and lack of mindfulness from back in the day are not today's owner's fault. If the owner updated the building to ADA standards, those complaining about burger price now would pass all the way out. I am disabled but not confined to a mobility aide 24/7 so I do understand the frustration with older buildings. The good news is that there are to-go and delivery options if you are unable to visit. If you are still reading, seriously give this place a chance. It is worth going off the beaten path to try.

Gluten free options

Madison Wood

Accurate name! This place doesn’t fail to deliver. Awesome gluten free options, in addition to vegetarian. Salad was super, super good, fresh, flavorful, adorned with flowers. Service was also top-tier, they were very attentive, especially to my celiac dietary restrictions, fast, friendly.

I love Burgerville. It's always one of our favorite go to places while in Portland. I love that they have gluten free options and the kids are always happy to go too!

Amelia

our experience here was absolutely wonderful! they are so accommodating to people with gluten sensitivities and the staff are so kind. Abby is such a wonderful girl and we have so much fun talking with her! The entire staff and atmosphere are absolutely wonderful and we will never stop coming here!

Trenda Martin

If you want a burger and fries, come here!! Great atmosphere in food court and pinball/brewery steps away. I was hesitant if I should also get fries and the guy taking orders (Z? I believe) said I shouldn’t miss out, and I’m happy I took his advice! Crispy crinkly cut fries and gluten free buns!! Fresh onions and crunchy pickles. Thanks MidCity, def better than mids!! #Primo

Eva Hurst

The gluten free buns are AMAZING!! Please never stop carrying these! I was able to eat alongside my family normally and enjoy a delicious hot burger on a rainy day. Typically I get it in a lettuce wrap, which takes away from the experience. Not at Killer Burger! The bun is delicious, the fries are amazing, and overall just a really good experience. Food took only a few minutes to come out. Friendly people at the register and clean location.

No gluten free options apart from lettuce leaf...what ?! Gluten free bread is freely available guys !

Seraph X

Used to be a favorite, but had to abandon them entirely a few years ago after they switched to adding gluten to their fries. Unsafe for the celiac folks in the family and honestly just seems like an unnecessary additive.

Nicole Simmons

The gluten free lettuce wrap was to die for.

Jesse Jones

The perfect place to take a group with various dietary needs. Classic burger and fries type of place with fantastic options for Gluten Free, Vegan, non-alcoholic and more

Love this place! 10/10 no notes. The staff is lovely. The bartenders were great with questions and splitting my groups tabs. We spoke with the chef when he brought out our food and he was great. Drinks- both cocktails and mocktails were great. The sour cherry lemonade was the favorite. I don't even like cherry and thought it was great. Food- huge waffle fries with great sauces. Chicken sandwiches and burgers. It is bar food, made right, with a little flair. Vibes- great place to hang out and it is open late. Celiac and gluten free folks- the fryer is gluten free- you can have the fries, friend chicken (sub bun), aranchini, wings, and more.
