Top 50 Gluten-Free Cafes to Explore in Alaska

MUST try their GF DF carrot cake cupcakes. Amazing. Wait time On food and coffee will Be unreasonably long usually. Sometimes the food is super amazing and sometimes you’ll have to ask them to remake it. We’ve been coming here for 18 years and still love it even when it can be bad sometimes. In anchorage this is my favorite cafe as they have amazing options and the best hot beverages. However: the gluten free cookies and cupcakes and other treats they have are absolutely the best in town. They have different GF treats whenever we go. I love their selection. If only other places had such amazing gf treats. Not sure about their food options. Their matcha latte and coffee are just bomb. Service is either amazing and lovely or some atitude depending on who you get. We usually the the lovely people!

Sweet and quaint. The Little Owl Cafe roasts their own coffee beans and offers gluten-free treats.

Lots of gluten free options, knowledgeable staff and a fun atmosphere had us visiting twice during our visit. Food was very filling and kept us going until dinner. Picture is gluten free Eggs Benedict

Trace Anderson

Just wow. Very gluten aware, they clean the hot plate down thoroughly before cooking my amazing GF crepe. OMG so good. Will be back

Relaxed cozy cafe on the corner of Old Steese Hwy & 3rd Street. Their menu offers many gluten free options. Classic Rito was delicious, made with fresh ingredients-that held together well. Cappuccino with oat milk was on point with even amount of milk foam on top. Friendly staff delivered speedy service esp during peak brunch hours. Would come again to try the Blueberry Cardamom vegan donut. 🍩

Amazing crepes and gluten free options.

Rachel Flanagan

Great coffee, atmosphere and service here always! Also I really appreciate their extensive, delicious!, selection of gluten free pastries.

Lynda Kasparek

Gluten Free!!! They can make all but 2 dishes gluten free and it’s DELICIOUS! If you are celiac though they use the same griddles. Service was wonderful!

Bret and Nancy Miles

It was a sweet surprise to find gluten free dairy free treats in Denali! The sweet potato gingerbread was so good! The staff was very kind and accommodating when asked about item ingredients. What a cozy and welcoming atmosphere!

Deanna Sebring

Love the amazing coffee and gluten-free baked items!

Kayla Mailloux

I love both Little Owl locations! I will say if you are craving gluten or meat the original location has more options for food. If coffee and a baked good are what you are looking for either location has great options! However they bake the goods at the Little Owl by the comic shop and I sometimes will find more baked goods there! Can’t go wrong at either location. I really love all their homemade coffee syrups as well, my favorite right now is the cardamon flavor.

It’s rare not only finding a restaurant that serves gluten free meals in Kenai, but meals that taste phenomenal, as well. I like coming to Debbie’s even when I’m not utilizing the airport and I live in the Kasilof area. The owners and their staff are also incredibly friendly and it’s fun grabbing a bite with your children while seeing the planes take off and land. Please come here!!

Bryan Wessman

Had some amazing Vegan/Gluten-free food. Try the vegan cheesecake, it was delicious!

Excellent soups and sandwiches with some gluten free options.

I keep wanting to give this place a chance but I think we’re done. We went a few weeks ago and the wait was long but nothing out of the ordinary. Once seated we placed our order. I ordered the sourdough gin and tonic. I asked to substitute club soda for the tonic. The soda was flat and where I assumed the rhubarb would be somewhat muddled, it was just a few frozen hunks tossed into the glass; not what I would expect for a $14.5 cocktail. Our meals consisted of the butter burger and huevos divorciados, both delicious, but we didn’t receive them until 35 minutes after ordering which was frustrating. At least I had time to try to muddle my frozen rhubarb. Before we got the bill my partner asked if he could try one of the biscuits. He was given a cold biscuit in a box. No butter, no jelly. It was dry. We tried again this weekend per my request since their gluten free menu is probably the best for brunch in town. It was another long wait so we went to the coffee shop next door. I ordered a cappuccino and it took them 35 minutes to make. I am not exaggerating. I then realized they have one machine for the coffee shop as well as the entire establishment so there were waitresses coming in for the brunch orders which put those of us in the coffee shop behind. We were seated after an hour. When given the specials I asked the waitress if the potato leek soup was gluten free and her response was “probably not, it tastes too good to be gluten free” we ordered the omelette and the shakahuska, and I specified gluten free once more. When the meals came, there were baguettes on my plate and my meal was cold. I asked if I could please have gluten free for a third time and she acted surprised. I placed the baguettes on the table and was brought two small pieces of gf toast to mop up my cold breakfast. Staff are very friendly and the options look delicious, but I think we just get really unlucky every time we come.

Stop here if you're looking for espresso with notes and not a chain coffee taste. The espresso maple roll was delicious as was the gluten free rhubarb muffin. Left feeling very satisfied. :)

MaryRose

OBSESSED. Their iced matcha with whole milk and honey is SO yummy, we literally came here every day on our vacation. The inside doesn’t have too much seating but they have a cute upstairs with some chairs and windows. Their pastries were very yummy and some were gluten free which was great!

Jenna Skinner

We love Lucy’s! I dropped my son off at practice and googled places with gluten free food in Soldotna and Lucy’s popped up. It was closing soon so I ordered online and then drove right over. One of my kids does not have celiac and my other 2 and myself do, so I asked that the lemon bar be put in a separate bag (I didn’t realize they were all individually wrapped haha!). When I went in to pick it up they had it all ready to go and put “Danger! Gluten!” on the bag and had it taped close 🤣😂 Haha! We loved that they went the extra step to separate it and make it fun! The chocolate pecan oat cookie was delicious! And I can’t wait to try my chocolate chocolate chip muffin later! Thank you so much! We will definitely be back!

Thankful that we found this place downtown. Simple, little cafe with a great menu for coffee, breakfast sandwiches, and lunch. Gluten free and vegan options. Service was relatively quick, albeit not very friendly (similar to many other places we've gone to in Anchorage).

Great place! Lots of options available for people with dietary restrictions like no dairy, gluten free, nut free. Vegan options too! I would recommend, the prices are reasonable and it's a friendly and welcoming space.

bounassifamily

Fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere. The food was well executed and delicious. Very good wine list too. Several mocktail options. And vegan, gluten free items for those who have dietary restrictions. Can't wait to go back. Worth the drive from Anchorage.

Absolutely delicious and very strong delicious coffee. Sweet kind employees. Very fresh cookies. Outstanding gluten free cookies and great variety of them also. Matcha white chocolate macadamia blew my mind. They have red velvet. And many other gf cookies freshly baked. Like WHAT!!!! so good. Thank you for being one of the very few places in Alaska maybe even the USA that makes an amazing variety of GF cookies. Do wish there was some gf giant pretzel options as well that would be something nice to have something GF savory also. Thank you. Sincerely A very grateful celiac

Kay Lynn Ridlon

So good every time! Great customer service too! I swing by anytime I have time in Anchorage. I have been here a few times and they never disappoint. The consistency is spot on. Oh and they have gluten free options and a smoothie bar !!!!

⚠️They don’t have Gluten Free crepes anymore⚠️

Holly Fadaoff

Worst bread I've ever had, gluten free doesn't mean nasty. No mayo added, no extra lettuce or tomato as requested. Styrofoam would taste better.

Laura Henry

Dan Yeckley

Good drinks and you can get gluten free muffins!

This place has the best gluten free baked goods they also have some vegan options as well. Its the 1 place in town I will get lunch from if I need a quick meal or want to go out to eat. They are also super good about cross contamination prevention if you tell them you have celiac or allergies :)

I am sadly forced to be Gluten free and the thing I miss most is a GF bagel. This place has the YUMMIEST. But I can absolutely never get one. No matter the time of day. I can go early and they are sold out. :( it’s so sad. The employee told me they only make about 6 a day. I wish they would make more. They would have all my money if they did.
