Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots with Dedicated Fryers Across Maryland

Stopped in for a quick bite and ended up staying for dessert too - butter chicken was fire, and that gluten-free cupcake? Unreal. Definitely coming back.

Wonderful server, delicious food, safe for my daughter with celiac. Really a treasure of a place.

Deborah Bowe

Gluten free! No inside seating, so if you are buying a hot and ready item you'll be sitting outside or in your car to eat. Took someone with celiac there, they got to have their first chicken tender, churro, and onion rings in years. They were delish, with a lot of flavor in the breading.

Oh my dear beloved Burtons, This is our go-to restaurant as a Celiac family. Any event, celebration, etc, we are at Burtons. Unfortunately, the Riverdale location is going off of our list and will be returning to the Alexandria location. When I say we go for all the celebrations, I'm not joking. Yesterday was the worst experience we have ever had at any restaurant and it was brunch on Father's Day. Mother's Day was fine. We were there. No issues. But, Father's Day was a diabolical disaster. If this was our first experience, which I fear it was some people's first time, I would never come back. Let me start by saying, the serving staff was amazing. You could tell the kitchen was falling apart but they were trying their best to hold the front of house together. I am going to repeat that we were there for brunch so when I say there were no water pitchers or food was unavailable, you know it got worse throughout the day into dinner service. Why advertise specials that you don't have? My husband and I both ordered off the specials menu. Appetizer sold out (at brunch.. yikes), main course was unrecognizable. They didn't have mashed potatoes, which were part of the dish. The sauce was missing from the chicken, and the chicken was more like Jerky. Needless to say, I took my meal home and didn't eat it. I was offered french fries at the end of my meal when I was informed there were in fact no mashed potatoes cooked. I took those home too. My daughter also ordered chicken that she didn't eat because hers was also a dried out jerky form. I will say, the waitress did comp a piece of chocolate cake, but after spending $150 on meals that 3/4 of us didn't eat, I decided you need to do better. In this economy, $150 for a family of 4 to have brunch comes with a certain expectation and you failed. Like I said, our family adores Burtons and we know what this restaurant is capable of and a busy brunch isn't an excuse to lose customers. I can only imagine what a mess dinner service was when you were running out of food by lunch time. Poor management destroys business. Do better. You have a strong reputation to uphold in the allergy and celiac community.

Delicious crepes, chicken, and waffles! The gluten free crepe was perfect. You couldn't tell it was gluten free. This is a friendly neighborhood spot that should not be overlooked.

Amy B

Very friendly people, beautiful building, delicious drinks. All of the food is gluten free, but also delicious enough for everyone to enjoy.

Lora Davis

Full gluten free menu! I tried gf fried chicken sandwich and loved it. The bun held together and was not gritty. There must be a bit of heat in the gf batter but it was delicious. No bacon for me but added pickle slices. I can't wait to try more gf dishes here The waiter was great

Rachel Levine

We eat here all the time for my son with multiple food allergies - wheat, peanut, tree nut and sesame. Love that the allergy meals are brought out on different plates so you can feel confident and they have a great gf menu!

Laura Bagley

Great food and service in a fantastic location. So many gluten free options! Our server, James, was knowledgeable about the menu and super helpful in explaining all the gluten free options available to us. My husband LOVED the beef stew: great flavor, plenty of beef. My salad was huge and fresh, no wilty greens. We split an order of fish and chips, made gluten free with specific batter and dedicated fryers. The batter was SO crispy. My husband ordered the creme brulee with whipped cream and fresh berries for dessert, and it was AMAZING. We enjoyed our visit and look forward to a return trip.

I love BIBIBOP. I have celiac’s disease so finding restaurants is really difficult. But BIBIBOP is 100% gluten free! I love their food especially some of the new things they recent added to their menu.

J

Food is good and I love their gluten-free chocolate chip cookie and it's a new design and feels welcoming. Servicing is typically great, I don't prefer to be seated outside as the service can be touch and go. Overall a great local place for me to go and love that they can make most of the dishes gluten free.

Gerson Vazquez

Went here for dinner with my wife while we were on vacation, figured we try something new. The food was amazing, we got the paella Valencia bowl(bought 2 by accident we didn’t realize how big it actually was!) so we had plenty to take home. My wife also got the watermelon salad and I got the beef empanadas which were also really good. The view of the bay is also very pretty. Jose was a great waiter he made sure we were taken care of and made sure my wife’s order was put in properly (she has celiac disease). Can’t wait to go back to OCMD and dine here again.

Danyelle Rickard

This place was amazing. The first thing they ask you is if you need a Gluten Free or Vegan menu. Everything was delicious. Prices were very reasonable and the staff were pleasant and knowledgeable. Adding this to my list of favorites.

Boning Ma

This Chinese restaurant's gluten- free meal is my only spot to eat , this Chinese food is my favorite. I drove a long way to get here to eat the food

hodan

Amazing healthy food and priced well. Great option for my fellow celiac family. Dedicated gluten free facility.

Grace Moore

Great place for breakfast and lunch! The employee was very helpful in explaining what menu items could be modified to be gluten free. Very generous portion sizes as well. I will definitely come back for dinner and to sit in the outdoor patio!

Rico Mason

The chicken here is always great. Some of the best fries I’ve had in a long time. I also appreciate the great service. My wife is Celiac (gluten free) and never had any issues.

Jason Pettrey

Needed to find a good local gluten-free spot near University of Maryland – this one came up and really hit the spot. We ended up doing dine-in one evening, and then did delivery the next evening. Their bowls are simple, but they’re extremely filling and delicious. They have lots of different options that you can customize so it doesn’t feel like you have the same thing twice, even though there were only five or six main things on the menu. Definitely worth checking out, especially if you have a gluten allergy.

J Jones

We are not from the area and we're traveling through. We ended up not being able to stop for dinner until 11:00 p.m. on a Sunday night. Good luck finding anywhere to eat at that time!! West End Grill was one of the few places that was open. I have a severe gluten allergy, and they had a separate gluten-free menu and separate gluten-free fryer. I got the burger with no bun and hand cut homemade French fries. It was awesome! My husband had the homemade jalapeno poppers and bought another order to go. They were amazing! For being a Sunday night at 11:00 p.m. the place is actually pretty packed, and the service was great! I'm so glad we were able to find the West End Grill and definitely will go there again on our way through the area. Highly recommend!

Jonathan Pevey

Took my girlfriend for her birthday. She has Celiac. The menu options were plentiful. The food was excellent. The staff was attentive but not intrusive.

Mark Robinson

This is a review both of this location and for the recent changes in Bibbibop’s menu. My wife has a gluten allergy and we have loved eating at Bibbibop for years. But since you all removed the signature bowls from the menu and haven’t provided instructions for your employees to re-create them when requested we are seriously considering never dining here again. Fine if you all want to change up your menu, but don’t get rid of the things that were on the menu that people loved and want to order again! That’s just a stupid choice to make as a business! And this particular branch of Bibbibop was pretty disappointing with the portions they gave us, and the fact that the employees who were working the line didn’t know or couldn’t remember how to recreate the signature bowls I was asking for and so we got pretty pathetic variations of the bowls and very small portions of them. I also asked them to be very light on the yum yum sauce for my dairy sensitive daughter’s bowl and they drowned it in sauce. Then when I asked for siracha sauce on mine they left it off completely. Please Bibbibop, fix your menu problem and even if you don’t want to list the signature bowls on your menu, give your employees instructions and guidance on how to still MAKE the signature bowls!

Lawrence Potts

Lunch after a great morning hike. I had the Belfast Bistro Steak sandwich with fries. It was messy and delicious. Great variety of beer on tap. Great gluten free options too.

Sadie Marks

Mindpub is home away from home. The food is amazing (especially the gluten free which honestly is so good, it’s hard to find gluten free in Federal hill that isn’t insanely expensive for no reason) the staff are great and know a lot - especially when asking for different recommendations. Coffee is locally roasted down the street! If I moved away - I would ALWAYS make sure to come here first when I visit

Hillary Blaney

I am so excited to have found this place! My youngest daughter is diagnosed Celiac Disease and so cannot have even the slightest bit of cross contamination in her food or she'll be sick. On Christmas Eve I called to see if they had a dedicated gluten free fryer (my girl loves fries!). I was told no but the man, Jason, who turned out to be the GM, encouraged us to go anyway because they have such an extensive gluten free menu. I'm glad we gave it a try! When I arrived Jason told me he decided to make a gluten free dedicated fryer in his kitchen and had already started it up to be ready for my daughter's fries! On top of that, the staff were all lovely and the food was *amazing*! Jason, if you see this, thank you again! It's rough for a 13 yr old with Celiac Disease; your kindness made a difference! We will be back!!

Danielle Wagner

Best gluten free option in Westfield mall. Sometimes I'll go here just to grab this delicious all gluten free Korean food. The mall food court is always very crowded so can be here to find seating and quite loud.

Jennifer Strohm

Loved this casual vibe next to the harbor. Great gluten-free food.

Steph G

Absolutely amazing. I go there once a month to get my daughter gluten free crepes.

Danyelle Rickard

Fantastic food! It's such a great option for gluten-free people.

Victoria Novak

Read that they have gluten free items and I called and the lady literally hung up on me after saying they have nothing for me… very rude.

Susan Emerson

My 9 year old loved the donuts - we’ve been to the Annapolis and Bethany location and they were yummy both places

Steve Olender

Amazing. Must go. Gluten-free friendly, fresh tortillas made in house with imported Mexican corn. Flights of Mezcal. Excellent tacos. Astounding tamales. Just get there!

Amanda Holk

Mushroom risotto was amazing. They really understand celiac if you need gf.

Michael Petrone

They have excellent gluten-free Pizza. Was there last night and we ordered two pizzas, forget to mention we needed gluten free. So they had to make two more and were really cool about not charging extra pizzas we couldn’t eat. It’s also a very beautiful space.

Frances Bushman

This place is AMAZING! The steak was cooked to perfection; the Mac and cheese was exquisite; and the sweet potato fries were so good I had to fight my kids to stop eating mine. I loved looking at the cook staff and seeing all of the smiles on their faces. The whole place is just lovely. And everything if GLUTEN FREE! I was in heaven. I'm so glad we stopped here.

Mary Sanphilipo

Nice gluten-free menu

Erin V

Great service! And amazing food. Delicious masa calamari, curried mussels, and creme brulee with chocolate ganache on the bottom. Gluten free friendly.

Dylan

I think most people know Mission BBQ is great, but the staff at this location was exceptionally nice. I have a gluten allergy, so unfortunately I can’t get the cornbread here, and my food did come out with cornbread on it. But the staff was super friendly and replaced the whole meal for me, brought me out new fries and meat, and even let me pack up the old food to take home for my girlfriend. Mistakes happen, trust me I understand, and everyone was super accommodating and make me feel seen. Whoever was working on 5/17/25, you’re all awesome!

Julie Smith

I’ve loved Thrashers since I was a kid. So glad I can still enjoy the fries now that I’m Celiac. 😋

Ordered takeout: burgers for 3 people and crab dip appetizer. The server didn't check that all items were added to my bag. The crab dip hadn't been added. Fortunately, I checked before leaving. The server quickly and politely retrieved the crab dip. The burgers were VERY good. Choice of healthy sides was very much appreciated! I got steamed broccoli that was good. Gluten-free bun on my burger was great! All-in-all, and very positive experience.

Eric Smith

Gluten free** Food is always of an amazing quality that will keep you coming back. Gluten free options are very limited, which is an obnoxious truth to believe given the effort that is put into every other aspect of the restaurant. Hate to see the quality and time given to creating a fantastic must-visit location that won't go all the way to accommodate the dietary restrictions they already offer.

Easy vibe, decent beers, friendly service. Kid-friendly, dog-friendly environment. They are compassionate about food allergies and feature gluten-free options and areas to signal on your food order if you have other dietary restrictions. Some vegetarian options, too.

Caters to my gluten free needs. Always a nice experience. Been going here for years with my husband. Definitely recommend

Best Mission BBQ we have ever visited. Very clean, friendly staff, excellent food. The food manager and young lady taking my order were very attentive to my dietary restrictions and helped me choose a safe meal choice (gluten free, dairy free). They even brought our daughter a little bowl of strawberries— so sweet! This location definitely exceeded our expectations and made us feel welcome. Thank you!
