Sabrina Spindler

The best glutenfree patisserie - love the cheescake and the cinnamon rolls! A must glutenfree eat when in Cologne!

Sabrina Spindler

The glutenfree patisserie is just amazing. They have so much glutenfree bakes as cakes, breads, buns and so mich more. The coffee is good as well. Highly recommended!

Tanja Leuam

Really Italian - and gluten-free too - really great, but unfortunately not for much longer 😩 Business is being closed

beautiful g free be it guilt or gluten ;)

Turtel Taube

The service was fast and friendly. The food wasn't bad, but the pasta was too oily and the fish overcooked for our taste. The side vegetables were excellent! The menu is varied and interesting, and dietary restrictions, including vegan and gluten-free options, are catered for.

Victoire

Awesome, gluten-free food!

Markus Roeder

Gluten-free pizzas are also delicious. Our favorite Italian restaurant in Cologne

Robert Lehner

Very good self-service burgers. In summer, there are few options for cooling off other than the excellent, supposedly homemade ice tea. My colleagues with intolerances were happy about the gluten-free option.

Jincy M

Great selection for people with gluten intolerance!

Petra Heine-Brach

My gluten-free mecca! Whenever I'm nearby, there's no way around the Backbrüder (bakery brothers). Great croissants, chocolate-flavored pastries, and heavenly cakes. My favorite: the raspberry-lemon cloud (see forum). Unfortunately, the café had to make way for a bakery for classes. A bit of a shame—hence only 3 stars for the ambiance.

Aby Gon

Truly the BEST gluten free pizza and pasta! We were so so impressed even my gluten eating husband adores the non gluten versions! Truly the best find and worth going a little outside of the centre for

Alina Flerus

Super nice café, very friendly service and everything gluten-free 😍 we will definitely be back!

Phil Yo

Lovely little cafe with the nice feature that everything is served completely gluten-free. First there was a burger (1x chicken and 1x normal beef) with potato wedges and homemade mayo. We also had the chickpea curry with sweet potatoes. Afterwards we each took a piece of different cake to take home with us. My wife has never eaten crumb cake anywhere else and was absolutely thrilled. The chocolate and nut cake were also great. The next day we tried the homemade waffles. Great taste here too, as a non-Zölli person I tasted almost no difference in the waffles and cakes compared to dishes that contain gluten. The service was great on both days. Definitely a recommendation if you are in Düsseldorf.

Marco D

Delicious gluten-free baked goods. Suitable for people with celiac disease.

Ch L

The gluten-free pizza is delicious. However, we recommend calling ahead to check whether gluten-free dough is available or requesting it when making your reservation.

Hendrik

We were very happy that there is a gluten-free option in the Hemer/Menden area. And the fact that the pizza was so delicious was also great. The delivery time was a bit long, but it was worth it. We especially recommend the arancinis; they taste like Naples. :) 5 stars.

Emma Dehne

The food was delicious, especially the gluten-free pizzas. The food was prepared quickly. However, the staff was stressed and very unfriendly.

Jan Krohn

Had the gluten-free burgers, very tasty!

Isabelle S.

The gluten-free pizza is very good, highly recommended! We'd like to order more often, even from work, but unfortunately, they open too late.

Лариса Карпенко

I was ill for a long time and had no idea I was gluten and lactose intolerant. When the doctor told me I would have to avoid these products for life, I was devastated. I felt sad, restricted, and somehow excluded. But then I discovered your café – and suddenly, joy returned! I can finally enjoy myself without fear or deprivation. Thank you for creating such a special place. I wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart, and that many more people may find this happiness with you 💜

Best gluten-free pizza in town!! Perfect 🥰🤝 Grazie

Stephan Kasper

Delicious coffee specialties and gluten-free pastries. Very friendly owner.

bilou b (BouliXx)

I really enjoyed it, they have gluten-free options.

Stephanie Marlow

Separate baking area for gluten-free stuff so that there’s no cross-contamination. EVERYTHING in the cake display was gluten-free and well labelled with allergens. Cake absolutely delicious and staff knowledgable about coeliac and about how strict you’ve got to be with cross-contamination. I almost burst into tears honestly: lovely lovely spacious place with a wonderful atmosphere and friendly staff. Brownies, cheese cake, tiramisu, cupcakes, strawberry cream cake… I had lemon cake with chocolate biscuity base (DID I MENTION GLUTEN-FREE?!) and it was fabulous.

Olivia N.

The four of us ate burgers here today and were absolutely thrilled. Even the gluten-free burger was really tasty. The fries could have been a bit less salty, but otherwise, they were great!

Benedikt Grimm

Healthy fast food – and it really is! The gluten-free rice flour crepes are amazing: their own dough, their own sauces, everything thought through down to the last detail. None of the usual "healthy" talk, but a genuine taste experience with a concept. And the team? Super friendly and genuinely passionate about what they do. Highly recommended! P.S. Can we please document how awesome these things look? The first food spot where the pictures on the menu match reality.

Luiza Campos

Such a wonderful cafe!!! Nice people, everything delicious and gluten-free. Safe for anyone suffering from celiac disease. I'd love to come back.

MaJoH

Very good burger joint that also offers gluten-free options. We'll be happy to come back.

Christian Dietz

Great gluten free pizzas! To my knowledge, the only restaurant in the region that offers this. And many other gluten-free products!

Catrin Knoll

Very delicious vegan food! You can indulge in vegan indulgence here, and the dishes on offer are different from standard pizzas, etc. They offer a variety of toppings. Also suitable for people with gluten allergies! The staff was immediately aware of my companion's celiac disease and asked what she could eat and how the dishes were prepared, and they were able to provide helpful advice.

Michael

The food is incredibly delicious and varied. They're particularly strict about allergies. Gluten-free pizzas are made exclusively by the chef, who takes great care to ensure they're not contaminated with gluten. The service is also very friendly and attentive. In terms of value for money, you definitely get your money's worth. Unfortunately, the restaurant isn't near me, otherwise I'd probably be there almost every day. In short: Definitely worth a visit.

Lorenzo Macone

Good selection of vegan and gluten-free dishes that were delicious. Do I need to make many comments: - Service was extremely understaffed and overwhelmed: we sat down and couldn't order for 20 minutes. The waitress had told us we'd have to wait a bit, but I still thought 45 minutes was too long. I think they should hire more staff. - I thought the size of the drinks was quite small for the price. - They display cakes at the counter, but they're not "ready" to eat for an hour. I still didn't get it after an hour, but that was due to the service. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it unless you really have a lot of time...

Julian

Top gluten free pizza. Very tasty and absolutely recommended! The second picture is a normal one.

L R

A truly great café with delicious food and a good selection of vegan and gluten-free options. There's parking right on site. The location is absolutely beautiful and lovingly decorated.

carol michetti

Too good and warm welcome. Plus this restaurant has a large gluten-free menu which is rare. We can enjoy it as a family with my sister who is gluten intolerant.

Jonas Ni

My wife and I went to eat at Amici Pizza yesterday because my wife has celiac disease and Amici makes gluten-free pizza to order :) and what can I say, we went straight back to Amici Pizza today 😃 Both the gluten-free and my pizzas were delicious 👍 We can only recommend Amici 🤗

Martina Vosen

It was very difficult to order using the table code. With the friendly help of the waiter "Juan," we finally found what we were looking for and enjoyed our food. Delicious (I mean the "gluten-free" pinsa and salad). Thank you very much. We'll be back!

Judy Jackson

Had an absolutely delicious 3-course meal at this wonderful diner in Paderborn. My husband and daughter are coeliacs, but there was a huge selection of gluten-free options and everything cooked separately from the non-gluten free dishes. The diner was modern and comfortable, with really cool decorations and great background music. The service was phenomenal, with friendly helpful staff, who looked after us perfectly. Will definitely be going back on our next trip to Paderborn.

Katharina Piscopiello

Super delicious and fresh. They also offer gluten-free options, which is a rarity for my husband. And his pizza was also delicious. The staff was extremely friendly. We'll be back.

Jasmin B.

The pizzas are super delicious. I love the whole-wheat pizza. The oven is specially cleaned beforehand for the gluten-free pizza! Unfortunately, you can only pay in cash.

Benjamin Rolf

The price-performance ratio isn't good. A slice of burnt cheese sandwich (gluten-free) with three small pickles costs just under €15.

Verena Mue

Very tasty and friendly servers. They also offer gluten-free pizza and pasta.

Vy Yang

The food is really really good (as many recommend) for their hand pulled noodle. My gluten free friend even commented that the gluten free version of the noodle didn't even taste gluten free, but just like regular noodle which is amazing. The place is also cozy but the service is a bit slow (maybe because there's only 1 waiter) and the price is also more premium. Around 17-19€ per main dish and 5.8€ for drinks like limo.

Lisa H.

Very tasty pizza, even gluten-free. We had a lovely evening, and the service was very friendly and attentive to our needs. We will definitely be back.

Birgit Kg

You could argue about the ambience, but not about the quality of the food. Very tasty dishes, no long waiting times and very attentive staff. Unfortunately, the dining room has the acoustics of a train station hall, but that's the end of my negative criticism. Plus point: they are also well equipped for guests with gluten intolerance!

Marco D

We had a delicious gluten-free schnitzel with fries. The owner is knowledgeable about contamination and celiac disease. We'll be back! Highly recommended.

Jessica

There's even celiac-friendly food. The staff knows their stuff, no long explanations. It was delicious. We'd love to come back :)

Marta Marchenko

A very great and cozy café - there are ideal cakes here: sugar, gluten, lactose free. The staff helped me order suitable cake. Highly recommended

Marie Sonne

Be careful if you have celiac disease! It's a scam to call Pörksen's baked goods gluten-free and recommend them to people with celiac disease. My body reacts so severely to the gluten-free wheat starch that I'm sick for one to three days. It's irresponsible, as these products are also purchased by restaurants and, in good faith, passed on to people with celiac disease. I can only appeal to the Pörksen company to completely remove wheat from their baked goods. Logically, wheat starch also contains traces of wheat and is therefore unsuitable for people with the disease. Since celiac disease is an autoimmune disease, the body detects the smallest gluten particles and reacts violently to them.

Nils Kraczewski

Very good restaurant. Were in the area on holiday and were advised to eat there as our daughter has celiac disease and is not allowed gluten. They really make gluten-free pizza there that tastes great. Top.
