Top 26 Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Havens Across St. Louis

Great place if you are gluten free. They have dedicated fryers for gluten-free options

Rarely do I sit after a meal and have to leave a review immediately. I’ve been gluten free for about three years and there are things I miss desperately, like a good waffle. They’re always so grainy and dense. Not here! This is legitimately the best waffle I’ve ever had. Not just gluten free, just the best. Period. The cider is amazing, servers are friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is super chill. Emily, our server, could answer all our questions and was very knowledgeable. My wife had the fish and chips and the fish was also gluten free - the batter was perfectly crispy and a great fish to batter ratio. If I could give 10 stars I would.

We tried Favazza’s around 1:30 p.m., so it wasn’t busy at all. Overall, it was just okay—an expensive, average experience. We started with the toasted ravioli, which was actually pretty good, nice, and crispy with a flavorful filling. For entrées, we had the manicotti, the pasta con broccoli with pink sauce, and the gluten-free shrimp with pasta, plus a dinner salad. Everything tasted fine, but nothing really stood out as exceptional, especially for the price. We sat on the patio, which was unfortunately extremely loud—even with few people around, the noise echoed and made conversation difficult. Service was a real disappointment. Our waitress was not attentive and kept disappearing for long stretches, leaving us waiting for refills and check-ins. In the end, it felt like we paid more than the quality and experience justified.

Soooo good and you can customize dishes to meet dietary restrictions like vegan and gluten free.

Very cool restaurant with an awesome whiskey selection and very cool reasonably priced cocktails. In fact, the entire menu is reasonably priced especially for a place right across from the ballpark. Service was fantastic as well! Super impressed with our server and drinks and food came out quickly. I got the three meat sampler and overall it was good. The brisket and pulled pork were excellent and the sides (coleslaw, potato salad, and popover) were great as well. The ribs however, were almost inedible. They were so over cooked and borderline burned. They were also so small and had almost no meat on them. Incredibly disappointing. Can’t give a BBQ restaurant more than 4 stars with that kind of miss on the ribs. Also of note. the person I was dining with is gluten intolerant and asked for the gluten free menu (super cool they have a special menu!) However, the only difference between the regular BBQ combo and the gluten free combo is that the gluten free one doesn’t include the popover and the combo was still the same price…that’s a little perplexing…I would think that if the meal didn’t include something the price would be a little less.

Really neat place. Waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable! My 8 year old who has gluten and dairy allergies was able to enjoy a “normal” sandwich and Root beer float! He was on cloud 9!!

Russell Gold

What a delightful place! It's so vibey with graffiti'd walls (and ceilings), and an open, welcoming charm. It was relaxed and casual and delicious with HUGE portions without breaking the bank. Options for vegetarians, vegans, and a whole extra menu of gluten-free options (gotta request it). I live thousands of miles away, otherwise this would be my go-to place, especially for my out of town visitors! Loved it!

Sarah Gould

Amazing fried chicken and fries with dedicated fryers!! They also have plenty of GF sauce options. I’ve never gotten sick after eating here

Jesse H

I absolutely love this place. We went here for my birthday because it has a lot of gluten-free options due to me having celiac. It was amazing and didnt disappoint

nick rew

Great spot for lunch. There are also several other options around. I got lunch here and dessert from somewhere else. Love that their entire menu is gluten-free.

Jacob Mohrmann

Their vegan gluten free pizza with the cashew cheese is incredible - and that is a touch feat because you are working without pretty much all the main ingredients in pizza!

Stacy Ancel

WOW! As a gluten-free free person with celiacs, it’s hard to find a delicious dinner out that’s not bland or just a salad with chicken or protein added. I’ve tried several restaurants as I like to eat out sometimes and feel normal. I tried the “Assorted Wild Mushrooms & Pecorino Polenta” and added steak. OMG! I was transferred to another planet! I almost cried it was so good! I’m pretty sure it was the best meal I’ve had in the last 10 years after finding out I had to eat #gf. I cannot wait to eat it again and think of it every day as I’m drinking my morning coffee. Im pretty sure I would feel the same way eating it even if I wasn’t GF and didn’t know it was GF. Now that’s a huge deal! Man, was it good! Talk about amazing comfort delicious food!

My lover and i visit Jeni’s at least once a week and i often find myself comparing any other ice cream to theirs.. Ordering four scoops in one dish to share brings the price to about $9 before tip which is an absolute steal for what you get. No other ice cream can compare flavor or texture wise!! It isn’t even an issue to order all scoops in the same dish because their melt time is surprisingly slow. They also have an array of gluten and dairy free options which i find myself ordering and not even realizing!!! My favorite combo is the salted peanut butter with chocolate flakes with their birthday cake. Truly magic in your mouth

Michael Wilford

Our family of five all agree that we have never been disappointed and we all love Sen. The food, drinks and service are always excellent but the absolute best part is that I can eat there gluten free and be confident that I won't get sick.

Taylor Sanders

Jennifer was my server. She was super sweet. She was also crushing it at serving the whole place. She reassured me that I everything I ordered was and could be made GF and even put in gluten allergy for me (I have celiac) so I felt very comfortable knowing that she knew what she was talking about. And the tacos were delicious. I will be back

Gina M

Amazing find in the food hall. The short rib tacos were the best, better than the short rib bowl. The sweet and spicy pork tacos were also amazing. Would skip getting the rice bowls next time. Plenty of gluten free options as well, and staff were knowledgeable about a variety of dietary restrictions

Fred Lybrand

Over 3 days in St Louis, I ate at: * Salt + Smoke (Delmar Blvd) * Pappy’s Smokehouse * Sugarfire Smokehouse Pappy’s had the best sausage, and the pickles were really good. It felt a little cheap that the pickles cost money. The brisket was very finely shaved - almost a roast beef. The ribs were really good, my favorite of the 2 places I had them. I liked their sauce, but the take out container was cheap and hard to re-seal. Good gluten free gf options.

Michael Berry

Great Q, & gluten-free friendly!

David Dotson

Excellent smoothies & acai bowls - custom to your order preference! Coconut, almond or oat milk options+ swap out or add to base or toppings - try out new combinations! Waffles are available in Gluten-Free!

Camille Cundiff

Always friendly staff, cool patrons, excellent food and drinks (Grace made us some lovely Earl martinis last night), and the best vibe in town! Plus, they always have good music playing. Plenty of gluten free options and never any cross contamination. My favorite dishes are the fish tacos and beet salad :)

Lisa Newcomer

Brisket is fire. Service is great, but I was annoyed by the staff member who kept referring to me as "friend" (I don't even know her). The atmosphere is fine, not special but clean. Baked beans and fries are also very good. I have a gluten allergy and don't get sick eating here!!

Ashley Bright

I had heard nothing but great things. I decided to come as they had gluten free options and it’s rare to find a place with a GF hot dog bun. The gentleman who took our order was very nice and the food came out efficiently. The taste of the food (2 dogs and a brat, two fries) were great, my nieces enjoyed theirs a lot. Mine tasted great, although the GF option isn’t really a hot dog bun…it was more like a sub sandwich bun. Within an hour of leaving this place I was SO SICK. Nausea and severe stomach pains - which is what happens if I am accidentally exposed to a fair amount of gluten. While I understand this is not a dedicated gluten free restaurant, I have eaten at many other places that are not either. I suspect Steve’s Hot Dog cross contamination practices are very lax & this is disappointing. If you’re going to offer GF items, you need to be knowledgeable and attempt to at least not make people sick! Before we left, we waited to use the rest room (one was out of order). An employee came out and he had the worst smelling B.O. I have ever experienced. We were gagging in the bathroom. It sort of grosses you out when you know someone is working in the kitchen and they have a body odor issue like that.

Emily Fanara

One of my favorite Bars/Restaurants ever. The decor, atmosphere, service, drinks, and food are all top notch! I have celiacs and there are more gluten free options than not which is hard to come by. Super safe, I go here all the time and have never gotten sick. Highly recommend!

If you are visiting STL, you MUST eat here. Get the ribs. Thank me later. Seriously, this is THE location to try authentic St. Louis BBQ. After much trial of other famous BBQ joints across America, I can attest that Bogart's ribs are the best. Better than Memphis, Kansas City, Houston, etc. The meat literally melts in your mouth with an explosion of sweetness, herbs, spices, and meat. Perfection has been reached! My wife and I are gluten free and we find plenty of options. The menu is well labeled. Service is fast but tables are limited. If you have a large group, I recommend going to their sister location, Pappy's. Centered in Soulard, the atmosphere is authentic, perhaps the most authentic setting possible for a St. Louis staple. You'll find no better place to eat while in STL!
