Top 12 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots Across Quintana Roo

Hannah Combs

The BEST Gluten-Free Pizza I’ve Ever Had! This place is an absolute gem! As someone who eats both vegan and gluten-free, finding great pizza can be a challenge—but this spot blew me away. The gluten-free crust was hands down the best I’ve ever had: crispy on the outside, soft inside, and full of flavor. The vegan cheese was incredible—creamy, melty, and made in-house like everything else on the menu. The owners were so warm and welcoming, and even gave us some fantastic local tips for diving in the area. I really appreciated how seriously they took my dietary needs—they were extra careful with my gluten-free order to avoid any cross-contamination, which gave me so much peace of mind. Even my husband, who’s not usually into vegan pizza, devoured his and couldn’t stop raving about how good it was. We’ll absolutely be back to try the empanadas and brownies—this spot is a must-visit!

We had a lovely breakfast here with delicious gluten free options and Jugo verde and were served by the lovely Anthonia. We loved it so much we came again for dinner and was served by Antandio Quiroz who was so lovely ! I would 100% reccomend

Monica Quijas

Wonderful food, a gluten-free coconut flour burrito,

Karina Codutti

Excellent option for celiacs! They understand what it's all about! A good gluten-free option with the proper precautions!

I ate there in person 2 weeks ago it was fantastic!!!! I just received my rappi delivery the chicken sandwich has so much salt I can’t eat it. It’s an overwhelming amount. :( the food was so great the first time as a celiac person I was really excited.

Natalia Marin Arribas

The gluten free paradise and also lots of vegan, keto, non dairy options… love it, highly recommend!!!

Carlotta Mayer

Very nice Italian restaurant! Friendly and efficient service. I think the owner knows how to set the mood in the evening! The place is pleasant outdoors. They make gluten-free pasta, so that's nice. The salads, however, aren't amazing.

Emily

Lovely cafe with great food and smoothies and friendly staff, just a bit on the pricey side! Lots of options for vegan and gluten free.

Katie Lambert

Gorgeous restaurant and amazing food! Ate here on my birthday while visiting Playa del Carmen and was so magical and delicious! I have celiac (gluten allergy) and the team was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable on allergies - Highly recommend the tuna steak - it was so delicious! And the restaurant is actually built around a cenote - super cool experience and some of the best food I ate in Mexico!

Hannah Combs

Panneria had several gluten-free AND vegan cakes. The cakes were quite pricey (160 pesos for one slice), but decent. The iced coffee was pretty bad, but the owner was very friendly. I wouldn’t necessarily come back since it’s so expensive, but it’s great that there are gluten-free vegan options when you’re craving pastries or cake. Also place had a really cute and friendly dog.

I recently dined at Layla and had an incredible experience! The food was absolutely fantastic, with options to suit every dietary need, including being Celiac friendly. The staff was wonderful, creating a welcoming atmosphere with their great service and friendly demeanor. The vibe of the restaurant was awesome, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. Highly recommend!

I have celiac (strictly gluten-free), and I'm vegetarian. I came here because of multiple reviews that were positive for those with celiac disease, and the restaurant overall had good reviews in general. Unfortunately, I had a pretty poor experience. As vegetarian/gluten-free, the waiter recommended a salad or a warm cauliflower dish in a mole sauce. There was some complimentary pickled vegetables with various sauces and fried tortillas/chips that came out, and the waiter assured me the chips were also gluten-free. I began to eat them, and then they came rushing back later to notify me the chips/fried tortillas were in fact NOT gluten-free. At that point, the dinner was mostly ruined. I ate my main course cauliflower dish which was pretty good, though left the restaurant quickly afterwards. Unfortunately, I did get sick soon afterwards from the food, so I can't give a positive review of the restaurant. The restaurant also just handled it by having the waiter apologize, and then still got charged full price for all the items, and also pressured into giving a tip despite all this. Anyway, definitely not going again.

Mar Ortiz

This place is incredible and they have options for celiacs. I went on vacation to Holbox and it was recommended to me, I wanted to try more things. Put a branch in Playa del Carmen🙏🏻🙏🏻🥹 haha. The quality of food, service and space 10/10. Thank you👏🏻

Sophie Castelbou

A pretty garden in the shade of the jungle, smiling and welcoming staff and impeccable service. A healthy and tasty breakfast... and even a delicious gluten free chocolate tart. I recommend 200%

Nia Roberts

Appreciated the option of gluten-free pasta. Super delicous and great service!

mariel hernandez

Terrible quality service, the girl at the morning counter wins, with a long face, slow service and not good quality. It's a shame because it was one of the few gluten free stores.

Mischi Hürlimann

He directly asked for allergies. They made the tacos with corn tortillas - really nice!

Kalps (k4lps)

Great place, lots of vegan and gluten free options, really recommend the empanadas they are amazing. A word of warning, the coffee wasn’t great, couldn’t drink it, it was really bad !

Diana Caro

I came here for the Gluten Free pancakes and they didn’t disappoint. They are very buttery and sweet. Best ones I’ve tasted in Tulum. Andres was my waiter and he was very attentive and welcoming. Really great place to work remote and spend the day.

Nice restaurant with the option to eat a gluten-free burger. I found it very tasty. The employees seemed rather unmotivated.

Jaqueline Gomez Franco

The presentation of the food only does justice to how delicious it is, it has light and well-served options, gluten free and sugar free, it was excellent for us after having dinner with tacos 😅 Highly recommended, delicious, at a good price and friendly

Emerald Thomas

Delicious smoothies

Adrian Popescu

Most of the things on the menu are gluten free. Lots of options to choose from. Portions are quite generous and the taste is great. They even provide coffee refills on the house. So far, my favorite place on the island. Definetly recommend.

Mel G

Thoughtful service, outstanding food, and wonderful atmosphere! Antonio has wonderful recommendations and is highly accommodating of anyone with dietary restrictions (I am celiac gluten free and vegetarian). Many options for starters, mains, and desserts. Get the mango sticky rice!

Vee K

They have Gluten-free bread!! I had a delicious lunch! soup, sandwich and water of the day (papaya) it was a tasty treat.

Charly Luna

Absolutely spectacular! Such a fun, friendly, and beautiful atmosphere. Best servive. Such love. MY HEART IS SO FULL! The family feel, the melody and tune of the entire place. The people! The connection. And the safety and cleanliness. I have Celiac and they were very accommodating. I felt so safe to eat. And I ate it all! 😋 Can't wait to be back!

Emilie Haugen

Great gluten free pizza. I read from other reviews they only have gluten free pizza on Fridays, so I texted them on WhatsApp to confirm before I went there. Love the atmosphere as well. The only thing is I wish they used fresh pineapple in stead of canned.

emma linton

This was a lovely chilled restaurant with date night vibes. The staff were very helpful. The gluten free items were clearly marked on the regular menu. I was provided with gluten free soy sauce. plenty of sushi options to choose from

If you’re a real pizza lover, I’d suggest giving this place a miss. We ordered two Diavola pizzas, one on a gluten-free base with vegan cheese and one regular. The gluten-free base came at an additional 100 pesos, which is quite steep, but I was curious to try it. Unfortunately, what arrived was more like a 1mm-thin tostada with a small amount of melted vegan cheese, no tomato sauce, and just four slices of what seemed like very basic salami. It really didn’t resemble a pizza in any way and was sent back straight away. Thankfully, we weren’t charged for it, which I appreciated. As for the regular pizza, it wasn’t much better. It looked like something from a very low-end all-inclusive buffet. The tomato sauce was unusually dark and definitely didn’t taste like San Marzano as advertised. The base was flat, undercooked, and lacked any real flavour or texture. On the plus side, the service was excellent. The waiter was kind, attentive, and very apologetic. I really felt for him, as he did his best in a tough situation. As an Italian who has lived abroad for over 20 years, I’ve had pizza in all kinds of settings and don’t consider myself particularly picky. But sadly, this just didn’t come close to what I’d consider pizza, especially at these prices. Piola used to be great years ago, but something seems to have changed. I won’t be returning.

Jodi Cobler

Best Gluten Free Fried Rice, ever!!! Don't miss this one! Very accommodating to food allergies and great prices.

Jacob Adams

My son said that the tacos were the best he'd ever had. The food was amazing, and you can't beat the view. We have some picky eaters in our family and my wife can't have gluten because she is celiac. We all loved what we ordered and my wife felt safe eating there because of their clearly marked menu for gluten allergy. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you're in the area.

Nicole Burdman

GLUTEN-FREE PIZZA 🙌🏻 Delicious, excellent service from Cordobés and Dani (the adopted Argentinian) I recommend 10/10 to those with celiac disease 🚨 PS: ARGENTINOS DE RAMOS MEJÍA 🇦🇷🤍💙

Emma

We love ziggys!!! We stayed at a nearby hotel and came here for breakfast one day, and ended up coming back every day for the rest of our trip. The restaurant on the beach is amazing and the staff is incredibly nice. We had 3 celiac and 1 nut allergy in our group, and they were able to accommodate us so easily with no issues. All the food was so good!! Some highlights were the pork belly enchiladas, tuna tacos and egg tacos. Thank you to the staff for creating such a beautiful and friendly atmosphere, we will definitely be back!

Lori Davidson

Felipe was awesome and they had delicious gluten free options. Drinks were cold and service was wonderful!

Janel Patterson

Celiac friendly food. Amazing service. Can not get a better meal.

Mary Bartell

Jolly is absolutely one of my favorite cafes in Cozumel. The food is always great and the atmosphere is chill and cozy. The staff is always fast and friendly. When I vacation on the island this is always the restaurant I go to first. My favorite is the Eggs Benedict but the avocado toast is a close second. The golden milk is very good and there coffee is made very well. Andy the waitress is always so cheerful and fun! It's a joy getting breakfast here. Their gluten free bread is great!!

Ramona Pfanzelt

Wow, wow, wow! Rarely have I had such good service! Sangria was extremely good (tip: order the 1/2 liter straight away, it's cheaper 😉). Pizza bread was amazing too! Ravioli too! Gluten-free pasta is also served. Every heart beats faster 🙏🏼

linds redding

Had a wonderful meal here! Our server Enrique was excellent. My sister and I have celiac and had great gf pasta here

Elisabeth Ooms

Great service and amazing food! Freddy and Mario made sure we had a lovely evening, would definitely recommend! Particularly good for gluten free

Hannah Combs

The food was great! Everything is vegan and they have several gluten-free options. I was also told that some items like the pad thai can be made gluten-free upon request. It’s a bit on the pricier side but the food was really good. Would recommend :)

miceol poitra

The ohner is really carful if you have allergies and can do everithing to accommodate you! Food is excellent and remind me my trip in india! There is also a small international grocery where i can find gluten free! I definitely come back!

Ailbhe Whitty

What a spot in bacalar. Was reccomended by numerous people before. Loads of taco filling options. Good for gluten free and veggies! The burritos are quite greasy I’d recommend the tacos more. Great margaritas as well

Gustavo Gonzalez Siaba

Food was great, gluten free options. Place looks really nice. Service from Daniel was excellent

Matteo Giani

Clean place, great food, gluten free options, fairly priced and quick service. Great experience

Laura Cano

Everything was so good. They had gluten free pasta, handmade pasta, pizza was amazing.

Theresa Lux

I love this restaurant! Beautiful decor, excellent service and the gluten free menu offered so many options. The Pad Thai chicken was delicious and gluten free. I rarely eat out because of my gluten allergy but I'm so glad I ate (multiple times) at Sasi Thai. The lady playing the saxophone was great. The other people who didn't have any food allergies loved the variety of food and delicious meals.

Cindy Harcha

Very good service, excellent prices. The passion fruit lemonade is delicious. Highly recommended!!! And many gluten-free options. Dessert too, and very delicious. Don't stop coming if you pass through Isla Mujeres.

mira levy

The birria ramen is the most amazing thing i’ve ever eaten, recommend so much. Birria tacos are my fave thing ever and the ramen is just so amazing. The menu is quite small yet the dishes are so fab. They cater well to allergens, e.g coeliac. Defo recommend xx

Sarabeth Berk Bickerton

Meal of a lifetime. Truly the highlight of our time in Tulum. My husband is celiac and very picky. He had a fabulous time enjoying all the gluten free flavors on the menu. The service was incredible. We will never forget the deliciousness.
