Top 10 Gluten-Free Cafes to Delight in Dayton

Grace Norwood

Alyssia did a wonderful job. Would like to see more gluten free options.

The coffee is amazing and the staff is well versed in food allergies. They even offer a military discount. The gf baked goods are always delicious and are kept separate from gluten items. As a celiac I highly recommend this place as I have never gotten sick.

Pastries are 100% worth the hype. The menu varies daily. There are gluten free options but need to go early, the gf items sell out quickly. Everything is beautiful, delicious and presentation/atmosphere is 100% memorable. They struggle with coffee orders if you order more than 1 drink at once- sometimes the 2nd drink is totally missed to make. Coffee is really good once recieved! this happened 3x in 2025, so room for improvement but wow... just go! So worth the trip.

Amazing coffee shop with a nice selection of foods, sweets and savory treats. (Gluten free selection is available) The ladies that we interacted with were very friendly and welcoming to us, as we were first timers on our visit.

This is honestly my favorite restaurant. I have never tried African food before visiting here a couple years ago, now I can't get enough. The woman working the front desk is always so sweet and accommodating for my gluten free needs, as I always get the GF injera and it is AMAZING. Can't tell you how much I appreciate being able to indulge in this amazing cuisine properly with the traditional bread as a GF person. 10/10 recommend the Nanya Platter, something for everyone and it has a great variety all in one place. The Fitfit appetizer is amazing as well, mouthwatering and crisp. If you're thinking about coming here, RUN don't walk, to try this amazing cuisine.

It is a stroll down the road for me. The atmosphere is enchanting. Many options in coffee beverages. Also they've liquor for coffee beverages if you enjoy this. They've hamburgers and gluten free alternatives.

If words like gluten-free, raw, or vegan make you shudder and clutch your chicken nuggets, let me just tell you that Katie has the magic touch - everything that she touches is magic. You won’t know it’s healthy by the taste, but your body feels the difference. Everyone there radiates sunshine and their passion for excellent food that fuels your body shows in every item. I’m a dairy loving girl, but the herbed cashew “cheese” is what dreams are made of. I haven’t had a single thing on the menu that was anything that didn’t have me licking the container when I was done.
