Top 50 Gluten-Free Cafes to Enjoy in Auckland City

Courtney Radmall

My family and I came here for breakfast and loved it. It is almost 100% gluten free excited for the whey oats they use in their porridge. It is all plant based so I thought my young kids might not like it but everything we ordered we all devoured. Perfect breakfast place for celiacs.

Renee Rigden

The best gluten and dairy free birthday cake I have had. Everyone loved it. Thanks Bluebells, we will be back for more.

I always go to duck island at least once a week and never thought to leave a review. Out of all my times here, today was the best one! Thanks to Cordell. Such a genuine person who actually recommended stuff I’ve never had before. The gluten free cone yall?!! Actually phenomenal (I’m not allergic to gluten). Thank you heaaaps Cordell.

Sam McCahon

Friendly service, healthy and nourishing food, great offering for vegan and gluten free people. Will be back :)

Rebecca McFadzien

My boyfriend & I had a lovely dining experience here recently. Our waitress Hannah was so attentive to our dietary restrictions (Coeliac) and it was clear she genuinely cared. The same goes for the talented chefs in the kitchen, who were super patient and understanding and took the Coeliacs/gluten allergy very seriously. Thank you all for making this such a lovely date night for us! We’ll definitely be back.

Thomas Hendricks

Incredibly well-managed and very good service at a locally-owned restaurant that truly knows their stuff with keto, coeliac-safe, low FODMAP and other nutritional needs. In two years of living locally and eating here monthly or at least quarterly, we’ve never had a problem with an order nor a bad experience.

Karen Searle

Finally a Cafe that caters for allergies! Specifically for me, most of the menu could be catered as gluten free and I wasn't disappointed. The menu was varied, not just the normal Cafe staples which was so refreshing and the staff were lovely. A lovely lunch on my last day in New Zealand. One happy tourist and if I were a local I'd be a regular. 😁

Cate McCallum

Food was amazing! I wish I'd remembered to take some photos. The only let down was service was a little slow- as in getting drinks initially and then the tables weren't cleared at all...but the food came out quickly and I'd go back again simply for the food options! 4 of us are coeliac and there were so many dishes that were either gluten free or could be modified for us 😍

Deborah Sims

Amazing food, safe for coeliacs

Lorraine Maguire

If someone is giving out awards The Shelf should get one. Amazing food and great value. Fast service. Lots of gluten free choices that made me happy. Our go to cafe when we visit Auckland city.

Michelle Tumurchudur

Gluten free options. Great coffee & amazing service 😍

Pannara Suwannikkha

One of my go-to cafes with my partner – we’ve been here so many times and it never disappoints! The gluten-free bagel is absolutely delicious – great texture and flavour. But the highlight has to be the waffle fried chicken with honey sriracha syrup… sweet, spicy, crispy – just perfect. Everything looks as good as it tastes – definitely a great spot if you love taking food pics 📸 friendly service, and tasty food every time. Highly recommended!

Grace Hessian

One of my absolute favourite spots for coffee, dinner, lunch, drinks. Good for vegans and gluten free and the most wonderful staff. I adore going in for a chat and they always are so welcoming! The sangria is great to share and the soup and hummus platter have the most amazing flavours and good for sharing!

Linda Gribble

What a little gem! They have a number of Gluten Free dishes, which attracted me to try them in the first place. Food was absolutely delicious, staff super friendly and service was quick. Plenty of parking at rear, off Moselle Ave. This will definitely now be my "go to" local cafe.

Guido Locher

First time here,friendly service,good gluten free options and Eggs Benedict best in a long time with good serving.

Anna Speranskaia

Such amazing hospitality, they ran out of gluten free bread and had someone go out and get me some, thank you for a delicious meal team! Will be coming back :)

Michelle Tumurchudur

Gluten free options for celiacs!

Sarah Gähwiler

Excellent food and drinks. Nice vibe. Very friendly staff. Food is very healthy, all freshly made and so yummie. They are vegetarian but lots of their dishes are vegan or can be made vegan. As far as I saw there are also many glutenfree options. I hope I can visit again sometime.

Megan Stericker

Delicious fried chicken (gluten free)! Really cool atmosphere and location.

Ok I’ve passed this place 1,000s of times but have never eaten here. Man I’ve been sleeping because it’s sooo delicious. I ordered the fried chicken poke bowl that was already gluten free, because I cannot pass up on gluten free fried chicken. UGH this was delicious. The sweet sauce they had on it, the half avo, the generous ginger, the chicken was crunchy. Could’ve had more rice, but overall, so delicious. We sat outside in the sun which was lovely, and sheltered from the wind. My daughter enjoyed the little playground down below. We also ordered fries on the side that were crunchy and delicious. Cabinet food also looked good - mainly sweet stuff and a lovely Carmel gluten free slice. But I was too full to order it. Would come again 10/10.

Andrew Johnson (AJ)

Terrific serving sizes and great food with a variety of Mediterranean favorites. Prices are at the higher end - almost $40 for a tagine - but flavors are great and you're not going to leave hungry. They also do doggy bag take home boxes if you can't finish it. 🤣 My dining partner eats gluten free and commented that there's heaps on the menu if you're unable to eat gluten, which is great to know!

Maggie Maurin

I ordered the T.A.B on a gluten free bagel and I liked it so much that I visited their location in the Auckland airport before my flight to try another one of their creations.

Jamie Rodriguez

Great atmosphere and service. Serve proper Gluten Free Coeliac safe bagels on request. The order shouts are great!

Turbo 91

Been there twice over the last few months, always great service and very delicious creative food options aswell as decent (iced) coffee. Also a good selection of delicious Gluten- free meals and desserts. I highly recommend trying their sweet Buckwheat waffles and the vanilla cheesecake. 👌 I also like their outside tables on the sidewalk beside a quiet street, at least on the weekends. Prices and quality match. I recommend trying it out yourself ☺️ Cheers

Jeanette Sutton

Not much in the way of gluten free food

Adriana Van Der Leest

Love JUST LIKE MARTHA!!! Each time we visit they have more on the menu that caters for gluten free and other food allergies. They are always happy to make variations on meals. The food tastes awesome! The staff friendly and helpful! It’s a busy cafe for good reason! Love that it’s walking distance from our house!

Grant Robinson

Consistently good food and coffee. Loads of gluten free options on the menu. Great value

Dassah Grace

This place is amazing for gluten free baking. I think not suitable for celiac but if you're just intolerant it's the best place in Auckland. Coffee is nice, service is always friendly too.

Debra Young

Stunning meals Mostly gluten free Definitely coming back

Tobias Bircumshaw

Gareth the waiter was absolutely wonderful, he really put us at ease in the environment and was amazing with my coeliac disease. The escargot was great! Thanks so much for a great night chefs and Gareth, you were great and deserve a hefty raise!

Sarah Bell

Amazing food and service. My 3 children have all got Coeliac Disease and they were so accommodating with the menu for them. The food was delicious and the staff are always so friendly and happy. Coffee is excellent to.

MJH

I love this cafe! What I am most impressed by is their range of gluten free food available in the cabinet. Instead of the usual standard options - either a brownie or an orange cake, they have different slices and even a cheesecake on offer. Their coffee is also really good. The service was lovely and the interior and exterior is a nice all-round vibe. Love this little gem and always make a visit when I'm in Devonport.

kate phat

Great place. Food was great, but a bit slow. They have separate menu for gluten free dishes too.

Julie B

Gluten-free toast ,had eggs and bacon. Very helpful 🙂

Missterykiwi

Gluten Free options

Suzanne Cooper

My husband gets the creamy mushrooms every time he can and he says it’s the best of every where here. I like that they do awesome gluten free burgers.

Z SK

Great food and service and lots of gluten free options 😊

Riki Takurua

The food is absolutely amazing and they also have a lot of gluten free options and they even made me and my partner something that wasn’t even on the menu! I 100% recommend this…I will definitely be coming back for more

Bianca Vitale

Best gluten free cheese scones! I go every time I visit Auckland.

Olivia B

Great coffee, really interesting menu with good gluten free options. I had the fried chicken eggs bene, was really yum. Good attentive and quick service.

Pippa Searle

What a lucky find, wonderful French restaurant tucked away from the crowd. A warm welcome from the owner and his staff even when it was a busy evening (and a busy morning when we returned for breakfast another day). A jolly, warm atmosphere of everyone enjoying the superb food on offer, happily there are gluten free and vegetarian options and warm fresh french bread for cleaning up my plate of every morsel. We'll definitely make a special effort to return on our next trip to Auckland. Thank you to you, your wonderful staff and chefs.

Alex M

Very cute cafe and nice staff but I was told many of the NGA labelled foods, eg pancakes, all fried foods (including in the salad) and morning smoothie (with oats) are no good for celiacs due to how they are prepared - which was disappointing. I did get a nice raw banoffee pie.

Erin Rivers

Lovely and attentive staff. Really obliging with gluten free options and bringing me a little plate of limes when they saw me eating the limes out of other people’s glasses 😅

Jude Crosweller

Good savoury and sweet g/f options, usually a gluten and dairy free one as well.

Mike Rhodes

Wow what a lovely dining experience. The only thing better than the food is the passion that the staff have for their job. My partner has a number of allergies and they catered for them perfectly as well. Great gluten-free pizza!

Georgie Bradshaw

Yummy Yom Yom Yom Get the gluten free pancakes New receipe apprently Cool vibe

Julie Wilson

I haven't been to this Columbus for a long time, but I really enjoyed the omelette they made me today. The person who served me went to the extra effort of asking if I was allergic to gluten and used the oven instead of the toaster to toast the gluten free bread. This was great thinking as often eating out with a gluten intolerance is like playing Russian roulette, you never know how careful the cafe is!

Judith Brown

I was a bit stressed having to get some good take away gluten free food for my son in law. They were so busy and I went to walk out. I was encouraged to check the second menue and to do an order it would be like a 10 minute wait. Great service. I was also given a glass of water. Back to day for the same but 2 of them.

Viv Walker

Exceptional sums it up!!! The cuisine was next level good. Thanks for a fabulous culinary journey and for the coeliac options. Made my day

Mark Attwooll

Perhaps this is my experience, but the layout of the cafe can make it feel a bit hectic. Staff were attentive but it goes from 0-100 real quick inside, and the sliding door entry can become a choke point if seated near it (as we were). Great food, can't fault it, but difficult options for anyone other than adults (e.g. if we bring our kids - one who's celiac) but then again not their fault really. Enjoyed the visit, will be back again.
