Top 16 Gluten-Free Cafes to Delight in Newfoundland and Labrador

Madison Brooks

The cutest coffee shop with delightful baked goods and lovely staff! Great gluten free panini and lentil chili, cannot recommend the salted caramel brownie (gf) highly enough! Such a gem of a cafe to find.

Lovely quient Cafe with a nice patio. A perfect stop on your way up or down from a hike. Had a delicious gluten-free brownie and an ice tea here.

Everything is perfect there ! As I have no home, finding a place that feels welcoming and where I can use a good wifi is precious and I felt good working all day there, for few days actually. People that work there are awesome, pretty good coffee/chai latte/caramel macchiato and they also had gluten-free option (only the bread for sandwiches but they have plenty of choice and the one I had was delicious). I recommend 100%

I had a great gluten free sandwich here! The gf bread is made off-site and they have a separate toaster and mayo for the sandwiches. Obviously they bake regular bread here so the risk for a Celiac isn’t zero but I enjoyed my sandwich very much and the man at the counter was so helpful and patient with my questions!

Had breakfast here twice during our week in St. John's, and it was worth it! So many options, and the fact that they can serve most options gluten-free (i.e. on a gluten-free bagel) was great. Unfortunately, they do not have a dedicated deep-fryer, so I wasn't able to get any of the unhealthy stuff that everyone else had, but that's okay...I appreciated the fruit substitution for the hash browns!

I go here everytime I'm in town, which is a couple times a month for work, and I've never had a bad drink here. There's a huge variety of drinks hot and cold and they always have interesting seasonal drinks as well. I always get a sandwich with a gluten free bun when I'm here, my favourites are the pesto chicken and the cran-apple chicken sandwiches, the gluten free bun is very good, and doesn't fall apart like other gf breads tend to.

The Irish Loop Coffee House has a surprisingly large food menu with reasonably priced and tasty items. We went there for coffee and tea, but I also had an order of home fries. The fries were really great! There are options for those who are gluten free and vegetarian. I didn't see any vegan only dishes, but I think they'd be able to accommodate people looking for a plant-based dish. The service was quick and friendly, which is always appreciated. The atmosphere and decor is retro diner themed, which was a cool surprise. I definitely recommend The Irish Loop Coffee House when driving route 10 through the area.

The staff here is fantastic. I have Celiac Disease and they always take great care in preparing my meals properly. This is one of the only places I trust with this. I've never had an issue. The staff always greats me with a smile, and the food is amazing. Lots of variety, and healthy options. Top notch!

A local gem! Fresh food, delicious! Added bonus, usually gluten free options available. Excellent coffee and treats. Our favourite lunchtime spot.

My wife & I stayed in the area for a few days on our honeymoon & this was absolutely the highlight. Their gluten-free fish cakes were a highlight for me (best I ever had) & the toutons were my wife's. Cheers to Dawn, Kim & Kim for making such a warm environment & having a great chat with us.

Excellent service; yummy food; reasonably priced; small-town breakfast and lunch cafe. Lovely atmosphere of family-like service. They were super accommodating for me as I can't have gluten and the gluten free breakfast sandwich they made for me was soooo yum! Still thinking about it 2 days later! 🤤 keep it up, Crooked Phil! 😊 Will definitely be back whenever we come through Carbonear! *Busy little spot with not many tables, so I recommend making a reservation if you're tight for time*

A must-stop for a casual breakfast or lunch when in St. John's. Don't pass on trying the delicious fish cakes. While I prefer mustard pickles with mine, the tartar sauce was tasty. I also tried the schnecke - croissant pastry with coconut, honey, and lemon curd. Quite sweet and sticky, but great with a cup of coffee. There are so many delicious-looking baked goods, salads, and more at Rocket Bakery - Water Street. The cafe is eclectic Newfoundland, fun and friendly. Lots of seating on a weekday morning. Friendly staff, too. There's an all-day menu, a vegan lunch menu, and a gluten-free menu to help you choose. I go every time I'm in town. P.S. If you're watching the latest season of Reacher on Amazon Prime, you will recognize the filming location on Water Street. 😃
