Top 50 Gluten-Free Cafes to Delight in San Antonio

Dannie Morris

We came here to celebrate our son's 23rd birthday as well as his upcoming graduation from The Culinary Institute of America, and it was well worth every cent! We did the tasting menu and shared everything family style. The food is dairy and gluten free as well as plant-forward. That said, the braised shirt ribs did not disappoint. We left full and happy. If you're dining with someone who doesn't like vegetables, bring them here to change their mind.

Very knowledgeable on the gluten-friendly options. This is the only place I know of in San Antonio that has gluten-friendly chicken fried steak, chicken fried chicken, onion strings, fried mushrooms, and cream gravy. Yes, you heard me right, gluten-friendly gravy. I danced with rapture at the 1st bite of a fried button mushroom gluten-friendly free that i have eaten in over 8 years. Every part of the meal was enjoyed, including the crustless gluten-friendly cheese cake. I dream about their fried mushrooms, so i limit my visites to once a month or every other month. Definitely on my list for a great meal.

Bird Bakery did an incredible job with a smash cake for my daughter’s first birthday. The whole process was great- from choosing the size, flavors, and decorations. Laura helped capture my vision and made the whole process feel so special. The cake turned out so so beautiful- better than I could have imagined AND it tasted so delicious. Their cupcakes are also amazing. We got a dozen for her party and they were a hit. Lots of flavors to choose from and they even have gluten free options. Lastly, the staff is always kind and inviting! Shout out to Eileen who did a fabulous job decorating 💗🪲

Visit miss chickpeas, it looks good, it's the first time I've been there. the place is cozy. Friendly and helpful staff. A lot of variety in the dishes, I recommend it: several gluten-free options. It is a beautiful place, I like the play of its colors. It is a little difficult to find a restaurant where the portions are large and the quality-price ratio is very good, the cook is super friendly as well as the cashiers. I am from Spain and I have been eating this type of food for 12 years. An award for the person who prepares that type of food at miss chickpea I loved it!!

Very pleasant experience. The waitress told me “we take allergies very seriously here. We don’t have a seperate GF menu because the majority can be made GF”.

Stefanie Vazquez

Amazing food! They have gluten free and vegan options

Dlolovesherboys

Good food. Very accommodating to gluten and dairy allergies! Really fun time!

Alma Silva

I have tried to order from the Snooze online and app, however, it no longer lets me substitute to a gluten friendly bread on the eggs benedict. It used to in the past. So then I tried to call in my order yesterday, but when I selected to transfer to speak to someone, the line kept hanging up and would not transfer. Snooze, please fix your automated systems!

Glutened me

Food was better than average, not great. Plenty of Gluten-free options. So loud I could barely hear the waitress (large open space). If like trendy and drink, then this is a good place.

R Sebeck

Great spot for a healthy breakfast! I ordered a pitaya bowl and loved it! Great texture and flavor and very customizable! Staff is knowledgeable about allergens and with heir guidance I got my bowl without the hemp granola because it is not guaranteed gluten free. I appreciated their transparency and enjoyed my bowl either way. My vegan friend ordered a smoothie with vegan protein and loved it! Delicious, healthy, very reasonable price :)

Warren Togami

Gluten free hamburger was delicious. Southwest Chicken Sandwich was excellent. Would eat here again.

Vivienne Grey

Freshest macaroons and they’re gluten free! These macaroons were absolutely delicious and the bakery is extremely clean and the staff is very friendly and polite, they were able to recommend some great flavours!!

Deanie Whittemore

Delicious breakfast tacos! Great restaurant with gluten free and dairy free options, wonderful juices, and good coffee.

Leah Rebollar

It's such a cute place for a quick bite and coffee. Iced teas are delicious. We are gluten-free nerds; they had a chocolate GF scone that was delicious, and they offer GF bread to substitute in your sandwich. Staff is friendly. Clean and well taken care of business. You can tell they take pride in their business.

One of my favorite gems in the city!! The drinks are incredible and the food is delicious with PLENTY of gluten free options. The service is always great and I love spending time here. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Kelsie Savage

I've been here a couple of times before after work. The food is absolutely amazing and the people who work here are awesome. I recently got diagnosed with Celiac Disease and thought that I could no longer get food here. But lo and behold, gluten free buns and bowl options are available! I could cry. It's been such a chore finding good gluten free food (oh how I miss bread) but the employees here were so accommodating and even suggested substitutions so I wouldn't accidentally get glutened. They aren't certified Celiac free (c'mon, it's a burger/wrap place) but it's nice to know that there ARE options available. Thank yall so much!

Elizabeth Whitfill

Absolutely love the gluten free options and drinks and the staff. Always enjoy coming to this place.

Patty F.

Their coffee was great. I just wish they had something gluten free for breakfast. Celiacs need to eat too!

Lana Bug

They had a very good gluten free dairy free sorbets very good!

Irma C

First time trying Local Coffee with a friend , the iced Salted Caramel Latte with almond milk was perfect . My friend is not really a coffee lover but enjoyed her hot chocolate with marshmallows inside . The Cinnamon Coffee Gluten Free Muffin was delicious oh my goodness . Our barista was so kind and sweet to us . Looking forward to try more of their options when I visit The Pearl again .

Shannon Stage

This place was a great find! They had breakfast tacos they were able to use corn tortillas to accommodate my gluten intolerance. Tacos were freshly made and yummy! My husband found delicious pastries and we both enjoyed our espresso and tea latte drink! Love a place that caters to both coffee and tea drinkers! Also the staff was helpful, and genuinely nice! Made my morning!

Autumn Bo

They do not in fact have gf croissants and in fact the staff member laughed at me when I asked. They have very few options that are gluten free and not very respectful of questions regarding cross contact of the eggs.

Vanessa Weber

What a unique spot!! The smells and beautiful pastries that greet you when you open the door are such a treat!! Unfortunately- no gf options and cross contamination would be an issue. But everyone who can eat gluten said their pastries were the best! Coffee was super good.

Juliet Albright

I have ordered the Gathering platter (serves up to 14) now twice for different events and have loved it. They make it so easy to order online and pick up and everything comes ready for presentation so you only have to unwrap. Everyone is always stunned by the presentation, variety and tastiness of the platter. Typically I am feeding someone who is gluten free, and if you just sub the crackers it is a great easy meal! The flowers are gorgeous and the wine has always been stupendous! Thank you Board Couple for making my life easier!!!

Jay Tkachuk

Excellent crepes, including gluten-free options. Great coffee, and I mean actually delicious coffee and not the typical burnt/sour awfulness that is so common everywhere in the States. Eclectic decor, unusual but not distasteful. Overall, worth a visit. Plan ahead, it does get busy.

William Smith

Really nice place. The owner and staff are great about making sure your order is to your liking, they will offer extra creamer/sweetener, even occasionally add espresso shots just to see if it suits your palate. I’ve come here several times to try a variety of drinks and everything has been solid (even though it was all liquid… but you get it lol) Also they host pop ups on weekends, so you might catch some gluten free snacks or barbecue if you’re there early enough. Pictured: latte with oat milk. They gave me an extra shot of espresso when I mentioned I like strong coffee taste. Very pleasant and smooth, no harsh bitterness, very well balanced.

Lilliana Ritchie

The coffee is delicious and their old fashions are delicious. I definitely recommend this place as it is great for studying, catching up with friends, or night life fun. I'm gluten intolerant so I can't eat the food but just looking at them they look delicious 🤤

Tiffany Klepper

Delightful atmosphere, delicious drinks, and delectable desserts. They even have a gluten free Chocolate Cake to choose from.

Simone Barlowe

Very quaint place. Felt lucky to have found a booth since it is seat yourself. The food was delicious! My friend and I went for brunch. I ordered crepes and fresh squeezed orange juice mimosas. Love the excellent gluten free menu selection for breakfast or brunch too!

Alyza Perez

I was already a big fan of Theory, their lattes never miss, but I was super happy to see them carrying a gluten free treat for folks that can't do the gluten! Thanks y'all!

Cynthia Saenz

Perfect Spot!!! I LOVED EVERYTHING!! Great food choices! Lots of Vegan, Vegetarian and Gluten Free choices too. Prices are very reasonable. Great service our server Karen W. was super friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. I ordered the Eggs Francisco (Delicious!) with the Buttermilk Pancakes (so fluffy!) and a Capuccino. It is now my favorite breakfast spot! Definetely a A+++

Jenn Marie

I am gluten intolerant, I ordered a bunless sausage mcmuffin, hashbrowns, and drinks. I didn't get sick. It is a total win for me, with true appreciation.

Lily

Very cool place! Lots of really awesome products, LOADS of gluten free grocery items. Definitely a place to check out if you’re at the Pearl.

Christina Mantas

Classic Rock Coffee is So Fun! I had no idea this was here! The Spray Painted walls, guitars, and album covers really tie together with the soundtrack. There are comfy seats, and delicious lattes. Absolutely will be back! I had the "Cinnamon Girl" Latte and a Gluten-Free Muffin, neither were too sweet. They'll be having karaoke nights, beer and wine soon, as well!

Rayla

Not bad. I'm thrilled that I can eat their fries because they use separate fryers for them. (Gluten allergy things)

que lindo

Love sweet, love it because you can make special order for gluten-free no bread..AWESOME

Billie Jo Belmares

The food is good and the employees are nice. They have gluten free bread, you just have to ask for it.

Karyn Masters

I absolutely love this place!! Their cold-pressed juices are the best. So delicious! They also have freshly made detox tea, gluten-free pastries, local honey, sea moss gel and much more. My favorite is the blue spirulina sea moss! All of their products are made with all natural, fresh ingredients, so you know you’re getting a quality product. Planning on trying their smoothies next!!

Lena Stumper

Excellent food, but the wait in line is a bit long. Seems like it would be improved if they could open 2 registers. My daughter is gluten free, and they went out of their way to provide her a delicious meal that was a hybrid of what was on the menu. Outdoor seating was perfect that day.

Jodi Ingersoll Meyer

LOVE the Cupid bowl! The berries are perfectly sweet, and the flavor combinations are stellar. To make it gluten-free, I substitute almonds for the granola. It's basically a fruit version of a 7-layer dip. Be prepared to share with nearby friends and family. One bite and I was hooked.

Elena Hodgkinson

My experience here yesterday morning was amazing! The staff had great energy and they were patient with me and helped me pick out a drink which was delicious, as well as a Gluten free option for breakfast. Which finding a quick GF option in the morning can be difficult for me sometimes , the egg bites were a great size and satisfying. Will definitely be back

Doumas

I have eaten from this establishment two days in a row. I have to say, the gluten free chicken nuggets are perhaps my favorite item thus far. Paired with a cheese sauce and sweet potato fries, they are the perfect meal to have when you are trying to get healthier. On top of that, the prices for their food is reasonable, even on UberEats. I will be eating from here more frequently! It’s nice to see a place in San Antonio that has more healthy options than just a salad!

Esmeralda “Esmi” Contreras

Yummy sugar free/gluten free cheesecake with strawberry toppings. The jar is small, but is a perfect serving. $7+ jars. Cheesecakes all look delicious!

Kelly Pahl

Much better tasting than SB with better prices! Wish they sold more food items and something gluten free would be great.

Skyler M

Been several times because their gluten free and blueberry muffins are really good. Give it 3 stars because more than once I received Luke warm coffee. Not sure if they know how to warm the milk but it never happens. I’ve since been to other places to get my coffee. Also wanted to mention lower the music. The whole ambiance of a coffee place should be not a club also coffee should be hot.

Sean Donovan

Great Coffee, and Service. Also they are able to accomidate my Gluten allergy.

Anthony Ladd

Use $25 blue green Boucher ordered a croissant with ham and egg breakfast ,Tex Mex burrito, burrito full of potatoes on croissant they did not have egg white Associate was not familiar with the type of gluten free bread being used .So we ordered the croissant not bad.

Carie Coleman

Vegan and gluten free food that's hella good.
