Top 41 Gluten-Free Spots with Dedicated Fryers to Enjoy in Boston

We made a reservation for Sunday night before a show. Reserving online was easy and I noted a gluten free menu was needed. Day of, the hostess picked up immediately when I called to say we were running a few minutes late. We came in and were seated immediately - with one GF menu in hand. Waters were filled, and a server brought a basket off pop overs. Noting the GF menu, she came back with GF breadrolls for my mom. Waiter was nice, helped my mom choose wine. She got the lobster risotto and I had the fresh tortellini. Food was fast, tasty, and delicious. We were given fresh macaroons with our bill, and the server brought my mom a couple more GF rolls for the rode. Such a great experience! Thank you!

Very loud and a tad over priced. Best gluten free pizza crust in the area. Most, if not all the dishes I sampled needed salt, but otherwise delicious and excellent ingredients.

Raena Woods

Delicious gluten free donuts! Friendly staff and great service

Bret Warren

Great food. Very easy to order online and identify food allergies.

I had heard a lot about Legal Sea Food and had been advised to try it out especially as they pride themselves in gluten free fish fry and have other fried items all dedicated gf . We started with the house sangrias : one red & one white . Refreshing especially on a hot and humid summer evening . Ordered the classic fish and chips prepared gluten free (no pictured) and the cod that was salt-vinegar crusted with a bed of bacon slaw , potato wedges and a lightly mustard remoulade. Delicious dish . Fish was perfectly cooked and crispy . The sauce was just right and tied it all together . Staff was a bit slow but there was a huge amount of people during peak times so they tried to keep up . I could have had more sangrias but it was a little hard to flag staff down . Not a big concern . The food was excellent ! Although I had been told no reservations were needed I was glad I made them in advanced as the place was hoping and can get a little loud . Very nice experience will be back next time in Boston

We visited for my dad‘s birthday dinner and it was a delightful time. Every dish was very tasty. I got the penne alla vodka gluten free with whipped ricotta on top (definitely worth getting!) - the orecchiette, chicken, Parmesan, and scallops saltimbocca were all very tasty. The zucchini fries were the perfect appetizer, the pesto aioli they came with was awesome. They also brought some limoncello shots and a beautifully plated Torta Di Chocolate for dessert. Definitely recommend coming!

Jordan Tessler

Amazing mexi food! The tacos were awesome and basically everything on the menu (besides dessert) is gluten free. We got a bunch of tacos to try and the guac, which was so flavorful and a decent portion size. Pork belly taco was the best imo, also so fun to try the fried fish (I was told it’s fried in rice flour/batter). Watermelon marg was delicious. They have outdoor seating, but it’s not the nicest views (street/parking lot) and indoors is a nice atmosphere, so I’d recommend going inside

Having visited this establishment on several occasions, I have consistently found the food to be delightful. My nephew and I often encounter challenges in locating dining options that cater to our dietary needs, as he has a gluten allergy and I have a dairy allergy. However, the staff here have always been incredibly friendly, kind, and accommodating. The food is consistently served promptly and prepared to perfection. I would certainly recommend this place for a quick and enjoyable meal.

We had dinner here with my young son, who has celiac. As soon as I mentioned gluten-free/celiac, the waitress immediately listed all the options available, explained that they have a dedicated gluten-free fryer, and described the procedures they follow. Most dishes could be made gluten-free, and my son chose the nachos. The service and knowledge were excellent!

Anna Diemer

Celebrated our fifth anniversary here while visiting Boston! I was so jazzed that the menu offered so many gluten free options. We enjoyed the oysters, mozzarella sticks (gluten free!!!), octopus, lobster, and bolognese. Finished with peach sorbetto. It is an investment but was absolutely worth the culinary experience. My partner’s fave was the octopus with crispy guanciale. Excellent drinks as well!

Raena Woods

Great service and food. Gluten free fry mix! So nice for my son to get gf chicken tenders.

Darci Truax

Lunch was wonderful! Had a hamburger on a GF bun and a GF Blueberry scone. Yummy!

Raena Woods

Great selection of gluten free treats. I was thrilled how much care the server took and my meal even had a little toothpick that said gluten free. So reassuring!

Marcia Renner

Our experience at Libertine was excellent. The food was delicious. The gluten free options were outstanding. Sarah our server was very knowledgeable and so helpful not only for our dinner but our stay in Boston. Definitely recommend!

Emily Aldous

Food was delicious, server was kind and very accommodating of my friend who has celiac! She even marked up the menu with all the foods that she could and couldn’t eat to make it easier for her. We both got paellas and oh my god the portion is HUGE so if you are going with another person make sure to share it btw the two of you. Great dinner spot in the city

Keith Dosik

This place is so cool! Great vibes, friendly and quick servers plus the food is fantastic. All of the gluten free options are delicious, especially the churros. It was really fun to be able to eat tacos and oysters at the same time.

Nathan Jensen

Amazing gluten free options. Had several rounds of fresh oysters that were fantastic. All of their fried food is gluten free.

Kerry-Ann Parsons

Really cool place, easy to do a takeout order. Lots of parking around. I had the Gluten free fish and chips with fries. Pretty good, but not excellent. I was glad to find gluten free, dairy free and soy free in Boston.

Jessica Siewrattan

Great atmosphere, gluten free options available, staff knowledgeable, birthday dessert if you're willing to wear a huge pink sombrero

Naomi Schneider

Truly most amazing gluten free dining experience I’ve had since being diagnosed in may. Gluten free bread which was wonderful and in a separate bowl from the normal bread. Everything fried is gluten free so I ate the calamari which was delicious. I ordered sushi and they gave me gluten free soy sauce. Overall, they are very accommodating and will make sure you are eating safe and make you are satisfied! I highly recommend if you are in the area!

Alexandra

All I need to say is YUM! The food was on point! Everything came out hot, fresh and delicious. They catered to my son’s Gluten allergy with care. TOM is amazing! He didn’t just give customer service, he gave us a guest experience to make us feel as if we were a guest in their home. He blessed our family with an experience we won’t forget.

Stephanie Frankum-Lewis

This was a great restaurant with a very welcoming atmosphere for families and couples. The menu had fantastic options of fresh local seafood and gluten free options. The lobster was sweet and succulent. The roll was a masterpiece. It was a delicious simple pleasure. The brussel sprouts were a delicious addition to this meal. This is a true Boston treasure!! I hope to be back in the future.

The last three times we have been here, the fish has come out still frozen on the inside. The fried haddock used to be fresh (a work of art) but it appears they have pivoted to buying frozen fried haddock and tossing it into the fryer which does not completely cook the frozen fish. We also received beans with macaroni bits in it. My household has celiac's so we did not appreciate the cross contamination. Overall the quality has gone wildly downhill. You are better off just cooking at home.

David

Excellent healthy option coming straight off the plane. Gluten free waffles, salad bowls, amazing smoothies. Glad I found this place

I live in Atlanta and unfortunately my go to location has closed so I thought I'd try something familiar in Boston. Off rip I noticed the food seemed fresher than Atl locations... don't tell. I ordered: guac & chips, Duck tacos (they could of held the load of onions) Baja fish tacos that I LOVE because they're GLUTEN FREE & FRIED

Tara C

Because of my gluten, dairy, soy, yeast and numerous other allergies my options here were limited. However they prepared a roll-less lobster roll with lettuce and a side of fries. Just grateful to have one issueless and reaction-free meal on the way home.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this restaurant. Service was absolutely top notch, our server went above and beyond. I asked for cucumber for my Hendricks and tonic, he couldn’t find any so created a sad face with other garnish’s I could use for my drink. But he came through by finding me cucumber! The food, oh so good! They brought out bread for my wife, I passed because I am gluten free and then the server said they had gf bread for me and got it from the warmer. The clam chowder my wife loved. And the mains, amazing! My wife had the crab and lobster ravioli and I had scallops with potato gratin. Both fantastic! If you are visiting Boston in the area it’s a must do!

Mary Maccabee

Gluten free buns (celiac safe, just mention it)

Nita J

Perfect place for great american food. It can get awfully loud especially if you aren’t sitting at the bar. Great place to please all types of eaters. Great place to bring your gluten free friends as well.

Sarah E Moats

As a celiac I typically have a difficult time finding safe food at airports. This place was absolutely amazing at handling my dietary restriction. My server reassured me that they are very aware of cross contamination and my order was marked as gluten allergy when put into the kitchen. They have a dedicated GF fryer and I was so happy to have calamari which I haven’t been able to eat since before my diagnosis. I wish I lived in Boston so I could eat here more often.

Walda Chesnut

A fun place to have dinner with nice ambiance. We really enjoyed listening to the good live jazz band. The Gluten free fish and chips were delicious and the fryer was celiac safe. Our waitress was attentive and helpful when asked about the gf menu.

Molly Monet-Viera

This is a lovely hidden gem next to the Revolution Hotel. The food was quite good. I recommend the cauliflower with the pineapple and the sotol ranch water. Alan was our waiter and he was very informative and kind. I also appreciated that the menu was very clear about the gluten free options.

Hannah Berry

GF sushi! They have Tamari (GF soy sauce), and a dedicated GF fryer for GF tempura

Jessica Harrison

Waitress was unattentive, we did not get water or condiments. Instead of asking what substitute I wanted l the waitress had it made unseasoned when there were several gluten free options listed on the menu. My husband waited 30+ minutes for her to walk by to ask for salt.

Jen G

We absolutely love this place!!! My daughter and I are both gluten free and this is our first stop when we land in Boston!!! The gluten free pickles… are to die for! They have many options for other things as well however these are our favorite! We have had the gf Nashville hot sandwich on gf bun… the bayou pasta that’s gf… and so many more!! They are all fabulous!! They also have sweet potato fries which are the bees knees! Enjoy!!

If the fries are made in a gluten free fryer then likely they are all gluten free. But ***Stomach definitely feels like it found some gluten a couple hours after eating though which is only uncomfortable for me but I’d triple check if you are celiac***! I can’t prove this but it’s a gut ;) feeling. Kind of a bummer if so. Had the fish and chips. Prices are comparable to the regular restaurant (29 vs 33). The waitress scooped the fries from the large bowls of fries and in my opinion could have been more generous. But the fish was good and it was all fresh and hot.

Amber Easterling

Almost everything on their menu is either gluten free or can be made gluten free. I had the best fish and chips I’ve had in years!

Lorna Vaughen

I went in the summer of 2024. I was very satisfied with the burger I received. My non-GF friend’s fried chicken sandwich took a pretty long time to make, but was good and fresh. The bakery Nextdoor had some gluten free pastries

Fantastic Mexican food with dedicated fryer
