Top 50 Gluten-Free Dinner Spots to Enjoy in Penticton

Brenda Gibson

How lovely to find a place that is entirely gluten free!! Also vegan and sugar free. The meals were delicious, the desserts were ok. All quite pricey but I guess that's the cost of fresh and healthy.

Jenna Francis

I’m Celiac and they used clean pans for me and was extremely accommodating and knowledgeable about cross contamination and how to keep me safe. Very happy with service.

Kelly Neil

If you are in the area, Theo's is a MUST GO, and ask for Nadine!! I have celiac and their menu did not disappoint. I had so many options to choose from, I needed extra time. We started with the calamari, ordered the oysters and lamb shoulder platters. The food was absolutely delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was perfect. Nadine is amazing: her cheerful personality, her knowledge of the menu, and the history of the house was spot on! Spend some time reading the captions under the pictures. Best experience ever!! Highly recommend!

Tami La Mirande

Great place with vegan and gluten free options. Always friendly, a little bit pricey, but what isn't nowadays! The restaurant is small inside so there isn't always seating immediately available, and they are usually busy because they are so good!

Wing Chen

Food's decent, price is decent, very large portion you won't leave the restaurant hungry. Lots of gluten free options if required.

Nina Murray

I was so excited to discover 🤩 that they offer a large selection of gluten-free options. The party tray is a great deal. The food is so delicious 😋.

Christina Millard

Amazing spot! Sooo many delicious gluten free choices…I couldn’t believe it! And fresh too. Beautiful atmosphere and excellent customer service 💖

Ilan Goldenblatt

Fantastic food! I had the Smoked Salmon poached egg bowl, and my partner had the tofu bowl. We are gluten free, which was easily accommodated. Lots of GF and DF options. Would definitely eat here again!

Shandi Christian

I was very pleased to hear that they have a dedicated gluten-free fryer! French fries!!! The gravy is also GF. They took good care to alleviate as much potential for cross-contamination as possible. Eating out is such a luxury.

Shandra Wiebe

The waitress communicated with the kitchen regarding my gluten-free needs and they insured the food was cooked safely.

John Morfopoulos

Almost the entire menu is gluten free friendly. Highly recommend

Diana Harrison

This is our go to pizza place. The pizza is so so good, I highly recommend going here. Its the best gluten and dairy free pizza in town!

Aaron J. JacksonCrabb

This is the BEST GLUTEN-FREE pizza we've ever had !! It has everything going for it. The size (14"), the crust infused with herbs, and it was golden brown on the underside, which means its been cooked all the way through. Plus, it was well done like we asked it to be. They added plenty of toppings and did not skimp on them nor the amount of cheese on top. When we opened the box, the pizza was hot like it just came out of the oven. Even after we drove down the street to the park to eat!!

Daniel Cramer

Excellent meal at this downtown Penticton spot. Clean but casual interior, prompt friendly service, and fantastic food! Our Denver guests described this as some of the best Indian they’ve ever had. They also do a great job Gluten-Free! The Mango Chicken is an excellent suggestion for Butter chicken lovers and they have a nice, but small selection of local wines and Indian beers to compliment your meal.

Shane Jackson

Both the food and staff are always superb. A good selection of gluten free options.

I love the Portuguese lettuce wraps! I just wish they had gluten free bread 🍞 but none the less I love lokis

Dan Byl

Amazing spot. Went on a quiet night. Nice and chill relaxed. Had an amazing chowder and my wife had a gluten free options which is always tough to find. Will be back

Lakela R

Farty vibes. Sports bar for kids. Had the 'gluten free' pasta but if you'd heard my butt last night you'd absolutely agree that it did indeed contain gluten. It sounded like the Titanic lost in fog. At one point it startled my partner awake and he shouted "ICEBERG AHEAD!". Went with friends, they're cool, they get 5 stars out of 5.

Endrené Shepherd (endotron11)

Incredible flavours! Gluten free! Great value for a delicious experience 😋

Shauna JacksonCrabb

Excellent traditional style Mexican cuisine. Gluten Free/Celiac options are no problem here! All dishes were amazing with fantastic flavor. Staff were friendly, accommodating and fun! We will be back!

jeroen teeuwen

Best Pad Thai in the Okanagan! Stopped at the food truck on our way through town looking for something quick, vegetarian, and gluten free and we’re not disappointed. Will definitely stop by next time

Robert Haddow

Food is consistent. I'm celiac and I have not had a problem eating there. Also serves gf beer!

Sydney

Sociale is a must-stop if you’re enjoying a day at the beach! Our server Selina was excellent and so patient with us. The food was to die for, there were lots of gluten free options, and the servers are all very knowledgeable and attentive. 10/10 would recommend.

Shiloh Vanderkooi

The server Raine was amazing, she and the cooks went above and beyond for me because of my gluten allergy. 😊💜

J Penner

The staff are always so friendly, polite and fast!!! Food is aways tasting on point. I just wish they would get gluten free shells for their burritos. Being a Celiac I would eat more from the menu then. : )

Matthew CW

I am allergic to a lot of foods. They catered to my needs without complaint. Gluten free crust was extremely good. Employees and owner are kind and outgoing. I had their chicken Alfredo, it was delicious!

Emi

So good we came back twice during our trip. We were also lucky for the menu to have changed slightly from our first visit so was able to try different tapas dishes. This is the spot for Celiacs, 99% of their menu is gluten-free except for their bread. Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. Presentation was top notch. If you are looking for a quick bite, this is not the place. It's an experience, order a bunch of dishes to share (min. 2 dishes/person), try some of their cocktails or wine and take in the beautiful view from your table. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the dishes and wine. Our lunch server saw that we had returned and came by to welcome us back. Definitely a nice gesture.

Sydney

I’ve been here a couple times now and it’s truly an amazing restaurant. The food is delicious, the service is fantastic, and the restaurant itself is beautiful. I would highly recommend the aburi nigiri. They are also great for those with dietary restrictions. I have celiac disease and they will always accommodate if they can.

Sarah Thomson

I was really excited for this dinner due to the high rating but unfortunately was really disappointed with this restaurant. Our server wasn’t friendly and made it feel very snooty and uncomfortable. The servers weren’t very accommodating of dietary restrictions. I’m celiac and they were unable to provide safe GF options for any of the carbs (potato, bulgar, pita) so I left quite hungry. They also never came back with an answer on if the feta was pasteurized which is necessary during pregnancy. Our server told us this was ‘elevated dining’, but this really missed the mark, certainly wouldn’t return.

Ed Murr

I was in Penticton for a couple of days on my way home from a trip to Edmonton. I reached out to my niece to meet for dinner while I was in town and she recommended Palmer. I happened to be staying next door at the Hotel Penticton so this was super convenient. Their menu has a good variety without being overwhelming. There’s bound to be something to appeal to everyone. My niece ordered the Miso Glazed Salmon and I had the Chicken Presse. Both meals were very tasty and decent portions. Our server was very attentive and when I mentioned that my Guinness was quite flat, she brought me a different drink and even comp’d the drink as well as remove the stale drink. After our meal, our server listed off some dessert options and we selected their Turtle Cheesecake which is both gluten free and dairy free (my niece has dietary restrictions) and it was surprisingly tasty. The coconut whip “cream” was a nice touch. I will be trying Palmer for breakfast before I leave and see if a steakhouse is capable of doing breakfast.

Brandon Campbell

Cute place and good sushi! Usually at Japanese restaurants it is sometimes difficult to get gluten free options, but this place was very helpful. They even had a dedicated gluten free combo! I will be back again

Nick Brooks

This is definitely one of if not the best pizza place in Penticton. My partner is gluten intolerant so we hadn't tried this place because they do not offer GF base... However!! The flour they use in their pizza is imported from Italy and it is a lot easier on the stomach and we were able to eat the regular dough no problem!! We have heard other people who are gluten intolerant say the same. The pizza is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is fun and inviting. Definitely reccomend

BSM

Visiting from Vancouver and ordered 5 pizzas, Veg Korma, Paneer Makhnee Gluten free, Meat Lovers, and veggie pesto. I must say that this pizza is some of the best I’ve ever had!! Delicious fresh toppings, and flavours. The crust is crispy and perfect texture & taste. I called the order in, and the lady that took my order was extremely friendly, and delivery driver was equally great and professional! I highly recommend this place, 5 STAR *****

Monique Saebels

Good ribs and gluten free options.

James Hertwig

July 09,2019 Went here for a to go item-my wife got gluten free pad thai and said it was delicious, good price as it made enough for two meals. The waitress was really friendly and talked to us while we waited, the food was done really fast yet tasted really fresh. Will come back one day!!

Patricia Dobrik

Loved that they offered a gluten free option to burgers on lettuce...nooms

Alix Schroeder

Great food. Love the mango avo roll and love that they offer Gluten free soy sauce. The staff are wonderful.

Sharilyn Alexander

As someone who has to eat gluten free I was extremely disappointed in the menu options. My only options were a power bowl or fish. The ambience in he restaurant is wonderful and we used to always go there for a nice higher end dinner. A couple of years ago they had an amazing menu with lots of good gluten free options. Now they don’t list any gluten free options and as mentioned there were only three things I was advised I could have. We won’t be going back and we won’t be recommending the restaurant to others.

RaeAnna Wiebe

The Angry Vegan offered a satisfying meal with excellent gluten-free options. The standout dish for me was the unforgettable potato salad. Highly recommend! Love the take home frozen meals, so convenient.

James Brown

Molto Bravo! Very Well Done! Both the Sunday String Band and The Screendoor did a magnifico or magnificent job this evening. Compliments to the Chefs for all of the gluten-free food I ate!

Dakota Harvey

Really good pizza, as well as really good gluten free options

Riley Switzer

Amazing poutine and its gluten free

maddie Swanson

Our server Jessica was so helpful i have allergies to gluten and dairy she helped me find a fantastic meal that was so full of flavour!! We will definitely be back!

M B

Their gluten friendly burritos are so amazing. This is my new spot, so good.

Aaron J. JacksonCrabb

A deliciously superb share-plate tapas-styled dinner paired with a recommended Hillside Winery 2015 Gamay Noir, topped off with a petite four-square dessert and a fine port. Oh yea everything we ate 100% Gluten-free Celiac-friendly. Thanks to the awesome chefs for their dedication in producing the Celiac-friendly meal and to the our server for her diligence at being respectful, helpful and patient with our slow dining. It's all GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

dang old (slikz)

Wonderful Thai Restaurant!! HAS A LOT OF GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS THAT WERE EXCELLENT. FANTASTIC SERVICE!!!

Jennifer Peters

Delicious gluten free meal and great service! Thank you!

braydon goss

Came here for xmas eve and did not disappoint. Also thank you to the staff for making a separate dish for my gf who is celiac even though they were only doing the buffet that night.

Nigel Reedman

Excellent experience here. Came in for lunch, with Celiac it can be “iffy” but Brodo nails it. They clearly understand the Gluten Free needs and were very helpful with it. Had the Cubano with GF bread. AMAZING. Partner had the soup flight and enjoyed them all. Will definitely go back next time in town.

Erin Delorme

Amazing poutine! Generous sizing, lots of cheese and delicious gravy. The fries are crispy and so good. The gluten free gravy was super tasty, and their fries are gluten free as well. Definitely the best poutine in the Okanagan.
