Top 9 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots to Explore in South Calgary, Calgary

Place is a cute, very small. I don't get the hype, must just be the location. The food, I'm sorry to say, is very bad! The chicken burger is advertised as a chicken breast. It comes as fatty chunks of dark meat and skin. Gross! The service is slow. The gluten free baking is nice. Overall needs a lot of improvement but there's potential.

I get it: it’s Christmas Eve. But that’s why I always *preorder* (this time on the 23rd) our meal. My husband is Celiac so gluten-free isn’t a choice, it’s a health reality. I (along with many, many others trying to pick-up their preorders) show-up at 5pm to pick-up my order and am met by utter chaos. I’m also told there was an “error” with the preorders and there will be a wait. Spoiler alert: it’s a long one. I’m quite patient and empathetic, but after 30-minutes, and watching two other people who came in *after* me leave with their orders not to mention the Skip driver’s whose orders may or may not have been prioritized, my holiday good will was rapidly diminishing. The kicker? When I did finally get my order, and prior to leaving asking the beleaguered staff to review it for accuracy, it was wrong…which we discovered upon getting home. Not much dinner for my husband, but preferable to a night of gut-wrenching pain for him. Frustrating and disappointing experience.

Got the boogie Mac burger on a gluten free bun - it was definitely tasty! Bun was one of the best I’ve had take out wise. The only thing I’d say is it lacked seasoning, the burger patty could use a bit of salt and pepper

I went to meltwhich and it’s fantastic - Sagar the owner was incredibly kind and helpful. With that being said. - the menu is awesome for vegans - veggies and celiacs. Offering fast food to the individuals with intolerance is huge! And they’re open to modifications. Meltwitch is the all inclusive fast food that cares!!! 10/10 experience truly :)

Huge variety including lots of gluten free. Husband had the almond croissant, said it was the best he's ever had. I had the almond orange cake which was the best gluten free cake I have ever had. I had a latte, husband had a cappuccino, both were incredible. We sat in on a rainy day and it was absolutely magical. Can't wait to go back and sit on the patio when it's not raining.

Cozy place with excellent servers. Dishes can be modified for gluten free diets (celiac) and all of the food I tried was delicious. Plenty of parking behind the restaurant.

First time here, got the Pork Belly Bennie, Miso Maple Bacon Bennie, and Red Velvet Waffles. Starting with service and atmosphere, we were greeted with a friendly and energetic server in a cozy and aesthetically pleasing space. They constantly checked up on us and were familiar enough with the menu to provide sound recommendations. The café’s internal decoration was very welcoming and relaxing, although the club-like music could maybe use some reconsideration and the plants needed some extra love. As for the food itself, we loved everything from start to finish. First of all, the ability to accommodate a gluten sensitivity by replacing the bennie base was much appreciated. For the pork belly, it seemed to be slightly overcooked but the flavours were there. Having it tossed in the glaze and some additional hollandaise might elevate it even further! The Miso Maple Bacon was good although there was not much miso taste. I got it as it sounded like an interesting flavour combo but it mainly tasted like a candied maple bacon. As for the sides, the Japa Fries were great. We couldn’t tell what made the “Umami” fries deserve their name aside from the very flavourful garlic aioli dipping sauce but the fries themselves were just above-average, double-fried and salted fries. Lastly, the waffles were dense and had a nice red velvet cake texture. Great whipped cream and berry compote.The only thing we would change about the dish is to remove the bananas as it is such an overpowering flavour that completely takes away from all the good things going on. Will recommend to all my friends coming to Calgary!

Best pho on 17th Ave!! Their sauté soup is so think and flavorful, the basic beef broth is also amazing. The gluten free springs were awesome and great texture. Last but not least the coconut juice is so fresh and sweet, it comes with soft coconut flesh, feels like I’m back in Asia drinking a fresh coconut (iykyk). To top it all off staff are so friendly and personable- they genuinely care about their customers.
