Top 22 Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Havens to Explore in Wellington

I was there an hour 40mins ago and bought brownie cheesecake slice and a Mince & Cheese pie which they heated up from cold for me, made today apparently. Together they cost me $17.50!! There are no prices displayed so if you're going here expecting to be satisfied on a typical NZ bakery budget then think again, the gluten free premium is rife here. Do note the lack of stars on this review reflects only on the pie of which I'm disappointed, I am half way through the pie now and I still haven't tasted the filling. For what I'm guessing is a $9 pie it's not up to par compared to much better pies in the Wellington region that are cheaper and packed to the brim with filling. Speaking of which I've gotten to the filling at last and it tastes great but still no sign of cheese. Upon finishing the pie now my conclusion is there's less than 1 teaspoon of cheese in this pie. Sorry guys but my experience of a most basic pie is lacklustre. Unlikely this review will directly affect your high rating but pie wanters should know what to expect.

🫶🏻 We had a wonderful experience at Miss Kangsta! As a gluten-free (coeliac!) restaurant, it’s absolutely fantastic — delicious food, fresh ingredients, and so many creative options. The staff was welcoming and very knowledgeable about dietary needs, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for amazing gluten-free dining in Wellington!

Once again we had a great family birthday dinner. We shared 5 dishes amongst four of us. Two hungry teenagers. Asked for everything gluten free and it was brought out quickly. Prior our cocktails and mock tails were served. The food was great and great service. We will be back again soon

My food was lovely and delicious. The Spanish waiter was very friendly and provided great service. However, our experience was concerning and I am giving a one star. My sister is gluten free. She ordered the gnocchi which says gluten free on the dinner menu. We understand you cannot cater to coeliacs, but it very clearly stated gluten free and not 'on request' or anything. After fully consuming the meal, paying and reading the receipt, it said 'Main gnocchi- NOT GF' in capitals like that. We went back in and the staff member (girl with reddish hair and glasses) mentioned that they had run out of gluten free pasta and were only serving gluten pasta. This is very concerning as we were not told by any staff member. She handled it very badly, no apology at all. She blamed us as we didn't tell them we needed it gluten free. However, we were comfortable and had peace of mind with what the menu so clearly stated. She also said "it's not like she's going to die" instead of at least apologising (please train the girl in customer service skills because that was pretty mean, insensitive and ignorant). We understand you don't want to reprint all the menus until the GF pasta is back, but you need to inform anyone who is ordering that meal, for safety. Please please train your staff better, especially on menu knowledge. They need more attention to detail. I work in hospitality myself and something like this can be easily avoided. If you're changing ingredients, inform all your staff and teach them to tell all customers upon arrival. This is super important. I am surprised even the chefs didn't confirm with the staff. Overall, very concerning as my sister may get sick now. I have attached screenshots of what it says on the menu.

I've had a descent experience here before but was a bit averages this time. Service: Server didn't know what coeliac means. Everyone that ordered chips was up looking for tomato sauce. Servers blasting spray cleaner everywhere but not really wiping the tables. Food: $2 upcharge for aoili on a small $28 burger. No presentation. Coffee is incredibly strong tasting, great if that is your thing I suppose. Server plopped the coffee a down and left us to figure out which was Americano and which was long black Atmosphere: place is loud. The cold wind from the door leading outside was unpleasant. Tables was cramped for 2 people and was set with 4 chairs.

Great range of options, including lots of gluten free. Lovely being able to be outside (in the right weather) and service is prompt and thoughtful (kids food delivered first). Good coffee. Open for a good range of times, but probably best to book at peak times.
