Top 38 Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Havens Across Denver

Casey Cromwell

Soooooo many amazing options to choose from! Our surprise faves were the soft pretzels bites and the sourdough bread. Donuts were also yummy! They also had many dairy free and vegan options and were very allergy aware.

They are so accommodating. I have Celiac and it is nice to go to a 100% gluten free kitchen.

Solid options for gluten free, tasty eats

This is a great place to eat. I was curious about for their fried oyster mushrooms and they were other worldly delicious. We shares with our tablemates and everyone enjoyed them. We had a small bowl of their vegan posole which was very flavorful and satisfying and filing. We shared their falafel wrap which was packed with great fillings and three or four falafel balls. Also very satisfying. My complaint may be aged based as I'm older, and also I also used to work in the food industry. This is a counter service restaurant. You get everything yourself, they bring out the food. Explain to me why at the end of purchase, there is an automatic 18% tip? You can change it, they suggest 20% or 25% (FOR NO SERVICE) and right below a button to customize or offer no tip. I am not going to be a shmuck and not tip at all, but starting at 18%? I gave 10%. I've watched the industry deal with wage issues. I know the margins are thin for restaurants. Maybe it is hitting me more since we just came back from Spain, where there is a different price for sit down verses bar and no tipping (and a whole different culture of how we care for people). But assuming 18% or more tip for counter service is audacious. Will I recommend this place? Yes. This is a great addition to vegan/vegetarian and gluten free food scene in Denver. They also offer chicken and fish and pork for the meat eaters. It's cool and hip and welcoming. The food is tasty. Try it.

This place is incredible, especially for someone who has celiac. The food was delicious, some of the sauces were so surprising it really made the dish. There are plenty of GF of options to try.

Perrin Brown

Very attentive staff and a clearly marked menu

Kate Hazel

Service was fantastic! They were quick to seat us even though they were busy. The menu had so many options from omelets to pancakes to eggs Benedict’s! Plus gluten free!!! I got the flight of pancakes gluten free and they were soft as pillows and so amazingly delicious. My hubby ordered a burrito and it was ginormous! He lives spicy food and their hot sauce had his “bald spot sweating” (his words 🤣). Christine also offered us multiple options for things to do in the area and places to see. It was an extraordinary experience!

Eliza Duquette

Food is tasty and fresh, love that nearly everything is gluten free. Casey our server was fabulous!!

Conner Lyapunov

the food was pretty okay!! unfortunately they were out of all of their lemonades which was a bummer :( otherwise they’re good with gluten free accommodations (on pizza and and sandwiches)

Kayla King

Love this place!

Came here because of ads about the fried chicken! I haven’t had a real life chicken parmesan in years due to my gluten allergy but always craved one and was so excited to order it, my partner got the meatloaf and they loved it as did I my chicken parmesan though I wish it was pasta instead of squash but I can understand at least they had this option for me. The gluten free desserts were delicious, the chocolate chip cookie and peanut butter tart were to die for and we had their zero proof cocktail spicy margarita which was very flavorful to the point where we weren’t sure if it was NA! The cocktail was a big highlight for me, I could definitely come here again and try some more things off the menu!

Ashley King-Roads

They are very good at offering options for a variety of diets, but experienced some discomfort after. Wouldn’t recommend anything from the kitchen (they have gf wrapped pastries) for anyone with celiac.

Isabella Perez (Bella)

It’s order at the front, then they bring items to the table for you. If you like Kombucha, they have a rotating homemade Kombucha flavor which they make very well. I always leave here with my tummy feeling great. I do think the portions are on the small side, so come here if you want to feel light after eating. So many delicious gluten free options, and the staff are attentive to your dietary needs which I really appreciate

Casey Cromwell

If you’re EVER near Denver, this is a must stop. I live in Colorado Springs and have already warned my partner that their gluten free Nutella pizza will be a pregnancy craving in the future we’re def driving for. 😂 They use gluten removed wheat starch from Italy (celiac safe but not safe for a wheat allergy) and separate prep areas and ovens for gluten free orders. Their fried eggplant is also one of the best meals I’ve ever had from a restaurant. They do have vegan cheese options too.

Casey Cromwell

100% gluten free and extremely allergy friendly. Their chicken and dumplings was super flavorful and their French toast was the best gluten free French toast I’ve ever had — crispy on the edges and soft in the middle. Super convenient to order since you use a digital stand to do so and can see all allergens when picking your meal.

Alanna Reynolds

​El Five delivers a solid dining experience, especially for those navigating gluten and dairy-free diets. The staff is attentive and accommodating, ensuring dietary needs are met without fuss. While the prices are on the higher end, the food meets expectations, though it doesn't necessarily exceed them. The atmosphere is pleasant, but not particularly memorable. Overall, it's a reliable choice for a special night out, offering a menu that caters well to specific dietary requirements.

Jessica

So excited about their many gluten free, celiac safe options. I wasn't even expecting them to have anything for me to eat, as I was out with some friends. I ordered the burger with GF bun and GF fries (they have separate fryers and pans for the gluten free foods). And it tasted sooooo good. Very satisfied 😌

Julie Castillo

Love City O’ City, been coming here for over 15 years. The food is top notch, service is great, and we beat the morning brunch rush by arriving at 10 o’clock on a Saturday. Met a dear friend there for our last breakfast before she moved out of state. Nice to know this place is still doing well. Had the chicken and waffles…it was delicious and gluten-free.

Paige Beach

Fly to Denver just to eat here. Outstanding gluten free options including pancakes, fries, soup. This place has 3 kitchens! One dedicated gf, one for vegetarian and a regular kitchen. Everyone around us raved about their food. It’s great to find a place that is gf and yummy for my non-gf friends. Eric was a fantastic waiter! We will stop by every time we come through!

Amber Owens

Wolf Harvey

Fantastic gluten free food!

Sara Colene

I have been coming here for years and absolutely love the community. Delicious food, gluten free donuts, and so many drink options that I can hardly ever just pick one. The rotating juices and mushroom cacao are my current go-to’s

Richard Robinson

The best arepas since were in Miami. Large and filling and delicious with several fillings and options. Totally gluten free. Clean with several tables.

Gene Crout

Bartaco is the greatest. The fact that my gluten free and dairy sensitive wife can eat here safely just makes this place the best. The pork belly tacos are the best I have ever had, the duck is fantastic, I always get a teriyaki ribeye. Roasted pork is good. My wife loves the Baja fish.

Colorado Denver

Love the Thalis! I get it gluten free and substitute papadum and kheer for the pakoras and naan. I miss the variety from old style Indian lunch buffets and the Thalis hit the spot with the variety of dishes. Each dish is very flavorful and expertly prepared. Spice of India has become my go-to Indian restaurant. We've eaten from here many times and never gotten cross contamination from gluten.

Rob Wilson

Let me share the good stuff first. The staff is very hard working. The hostess greeted us immediately and was friendly. The food looked good and tasted ok to great. There was a bathroom. We were excited to go bc the one in our area shut down. They have a nice drink selection. The non-alcoholic beverages were great. The service was strong. Now on to the story. We were told the wait would be 10-15 minutes, and we could wait at the bar or upstairs. We sat at the bar, but the overworked bar tender told us we could not for drinks as not everyone was 21. OK. Outside it is. After about 30-40 minute wait our table was ready. Why was there a wait? Well, the hostess was our server and the one cleaning the tables. They were understaffed. No worries, it happens. There was only one bartender, so drinks would be slow. The food would be a bit to get there, which makes sense given staffing. The food looked good. The meatball sub was bland and a little overcooked. Tots were mushy. Neither teenager liked their pizza. The gluten-free pizza looked good and tasted good. However, shortly after, 3 out of 4 were not feeling well. I am not sure if it was the pear cider or the GF pizza, but I had a bad reaction after it. This would be a gluten reaction that is painful and takes a long while to recover. This was around a 2 hour affair, not including wait time. One more thing, just like a lot of places, the prices are much much higher than before. But not abnormal for the area. I really hope the place turns around and everyone has a better food experience than us. I am sorry to leave a poor review. I normally do not leave reviews like this.

Megan Dancer

This place is an anomaly. Amazing vibe, amazing food, great prices, and gluten free options. How there is only one of these is beyond me!

Amber Kuspiel

Their gluten-free options are amazing! Especially the pancakes, my non gluten free family love them too!

Gill Elliott

Best breakfast in Denver? Extensive menu, delicious food, gluten and dairy free options available - highly recommended!!

Melodye Feldman

Great staff, food is very fresh, lots of choice for vegans and gluten free, love the concept of keeping it local, sustainable, and great drink options. Can’t say enough good things about this place!

I had a pretty good burger but they did not have gluten free buns, which is odd for a craft burger joint. The fries were good but a little salty. The service was ok. The bar drinks were good.

Nancy Deal-Whitacre

My favorite place to eat at DIA- friendly service, reasonable prices, and gluten free bread and cookies!!

Nicholas Nelson

Excellent good with gluten free menu and very knowledgeable staff

Collin Deal

Lots of gluten free options. Not exactly “cheap” but well worth it in my opinion. Wish more places were as gluten friendly!

Ashley King-Roads

I was excited for the “gluten free” donut holes but you get to the restaurant and it says they used shared equipment. So sad!

Debbie Nelson

Always great food. And love that I can safely eat gluten free here. Server, Yazi, was great, attentive, timely.

Christine Talley

Generally very good food and service. I marked down a star because my companion, who is Celiac, was served a dish with a gluten contaminated garnish (which she caught before eating). Human error, but quite serious, nonetheless. Manager did take accountability and apologize.

Joshua B

The gluten free bread is great! My wife questioned if it was gluten free because of how good it was! No reactions so it definitely was!

Simon Myers

This place handles gluten free very well! My wife is celiac and we have never had an issue with cross-contamination. They are very accommodating for food allergies to take out certain ingredients.

Shannon E

I ordered the BLT on gluten free bread. Fast service - I ordered from the Togo window. I was glad for the quick service as my flight was going to leave in 35 minutes. It came in about 5 minutes

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Leroy’s Bagels is a hidden gem that everyone needs to experience! From the moment you walk in, the aroma of freshly baked bagels fills the air, making your mouth water in anticipation. The variety of house-made cream cheeses is absolutely incredible—each one more delicious than the last. Whether you’re a classic plain lover or adventurous enough to try their unique flavors, there’s something for everyone. I was thrilled to find they offer gluten-free bagels, which is a game-changer for those of us with dietary restrictions. It’s so refreshing to see a place that caters to all! The quality of ingredients at Leroy’s is top-notch, ensuring that every bite is packed with flavor. Plus, the prices are surprisingly affordable, making it easy to indulge without breaking the bank. Accessibility is a big plus, too! The bike lane nearby makes it convenient for cyclists like me to swing by and grab a delicious breakfast or snack. Overall, Leroy’s Bagels is a must-visit spot for anyone in the area. I can’t recommend it enough—delicious food, great prices, and a welcoming atmosphere! Can't wait to go back! 🥯❤️

Blanca Mendez Kalkach

Even though the service was just OK and a bit slow, the food was amazing! Ceviche had tons of lime and just enough spice level. I wish it came with avocado. The chilaquiles were crunchy (as they should) and the eggs runny but well cooked on the outside. The tacos de carnitas were good too, the meat was tender and tasted great. All three plates gluten free! Price is also fair. Kudos to the chef!

JoJo

Justin was absolutely amazing! Will come back just for his amazing service on top of the amazing (and gluten free food). He alP knew the wine menu flawlessly. My favorite place in Denver metro!

Ashley King-Roads

I went there about a year ago. Very small kitchen and do not recommend for people with celiac. I was sick all day after eating the questionable gluten free waffles.

Haley Christensen

Amazing gluten free and vegan ice cream. Owner was a delight! Loved the cookies and cream flavor!

Jill W

UPDATE YOUR MENU TO ACCURATELY REFLECT ALLERGENS If an item is marked GF on your menu (not GFO) it should not contain gluten. I inquired about the flavor of the mole enchiladas marked as gf on the menu. The cashier graciously offered to taste the sauce which was much appreciated. When I went to order it, I confirmed it was gf. Cashier told me the mole sauce I just tasted was recently changed to contain gluten. I’m pretty ticked off the menu was not updated. This is not the cashier's fault, but management should take this more seriously. Very frustrating and not the first time I've had a gluten issue here. On 2 prior occasions I ordered gf corn tortillas with the huevos and was given flour. Laxness around allergens has steered me away from future visits.

Kay Frances

The seafood was excellent! The PEI mussels tasted super fresh. The alcohol-free wine was great too. We had a wonderful evening. Not bad for a gluten-free Italian meal! The staff are very accommodating and welcoming.

Emily Grundhauser

My two friends who are regulars here took me in tonight. I’ve never had Indian food and told the waitress as much, and she recommended the perfect meal for me based on what I told her I liked. I loved the food here and was so happy to see the large variety of gluten free menu items. The friendly and prompt service and atmosphere was absolutely amazing here. It smells amazing and everything felt SO clean. They do an amazing job at everything they do at spice room!!
