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.

We ordered a cake online for a work farewell. The person leaving is gluten free, so when using the website we selected "cakes", then "gluten free". 30 options came up. We chose a naked cake, selected the size and paid. On picking up the cake today we discovered it was not gluten free at all. We then had to buy additional cupcakes which were gluten free for our team mate. I'm sure the cake will taste great, but just a warning for others to take your time when ordering and include in the notes section that you need a gluten free option.

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.

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.

I absolutely love this place, I feel like I'm In Japan again with the serenity and lovely customer service. The food is so tasty and fresh and so well priced!!! I absolutely love the onigiris and the sweet food they have in their cabinet (mostly all vegan and gluten free which is a bonus!!). If you have dietary restrictions this is definitely the place to try, especially if you like japanese cuisine. All the drinks are organic and better yet there are so many non caffeine drinks, sesame latte is my favorite!! A little bit nutty and smooth!! I absolutely love the cinnamon banana bread, the best vegan gf one I've ever had! Janken is a must try, especially if you want to come to a peaceful atmosphere filled with joy!!

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. 😁

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.

I was in town with family for a couple of days, we discovered Honey Cafe the first morning and ended up returning the next morning because it was so delicious! The mince & toast was the nicest I've ever had (so good I had it twice)🤤 I had gluten free toast and was impressed it wasn't the usual vogels but thick wedges. My sister had the classic (salmon) bagel GF both days as well, others in the party had French toast and creamy mushrooms...we were all delighted with our meals. Service was great and atmosphere was lovely. Highly recommend!

Guido Locher

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

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 😍

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 :)

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.

Alice

a lovely lunch! mexican bowl was super yummy and salad fresh. GF establishment which was great for a friend who is celiac.

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.

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.

Emily Stokes

Great lunch venue. Lots of gluten free and no added gluten options. GF bread made on premises. Friendly service.

Julie B

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

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!

kate phat

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

Renate D.

Yummy! Gluten free options are tasting great.

Megan Stericker

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

Laus

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.

Jeanette Sutton

Not much in the way of gluten free food

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!

Bianca Vitale

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

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

Z SK

Great food and service and lots of gluten free options 😊

Grant Robinson

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

Georgie Bradshaw

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

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.

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.

Rachel Cunningham

Such a cute cafe, I had the gluten free eggs benny it was delicious & affordable. Coffee was really nice too

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!

Laus

My heart broke after paying $30 for gluten free tomatoes on toast with one single egg. In this economic climate?! Was delicious though.

Debra Young

Stunning meals Mostly gluten free Definitely coming back

Edward Evers

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.

Jude Crosweller

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

Jamie Rodriguez

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

Gill H

Super tasty, gluten etc. free steak and basic salad with excellent service, thanks so much for catering for my dietary requirements! 😀 👍

Britt B

Gorgeous cupcakes. Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, tasty balanced flavours and moist fresh cakes. Gluten and Dairy free options available in more than one flavour!! Two sizes of cupcake available as well as a small range of cookies and cake pops. Wonderful and well worth a visit. The only shame is if the seat inside is taken the outdoor seating area is not as lovely as the cakes deserve so be prepared to relocate or take home.

The Lobster

Had the best Eggs Benedict I’ve ever had from here. The best coffee and hot chocolate too! They cater for Coeliac Disease.

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.

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.

Martensen Adventurers

Great options for gluten free

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 😅

Kate Jordan

Awesome range of gluten free, dairy free and vegetarian options. Gluten free French toast! Hard to find these days

Derpert

Delicious vegan food! All foods are dairy free and meat free and most are gluten free! The only complaint I have is about the portion I received. The other Revive Cafe I went to had actually filled the container. Otherwise recommended! (If you're a student definitely sign up for their discount!)
