Top 50 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots to Explore in Lower Hutt

Reuben FillMyGobbs

I was there an hour 40mins ago and bought brownie cheesecake slice and a Mince & Cheese pie which they heated up from cold for me, made today apparently. Together they cost me $17.50!! There are no prices displayed so if you're going here expecting to be satisfied on a typical NZ bakery budget then think again, the gluten free premium is rife here. Do note the lack of stars on this review reflects only on the pie of which I'm disappointed, I am half way through the pie now and I still haven't tasted the filling. For what I'm guessing is a $9 pie it's not up to par compared to much better pies in the Wellington region that are cheaper and packed to the brim with filling. Speaking of which I've gotten to the filling at last and it tastes great but still no sign of cheese. Upon finishing the pie now my conclusion is there's less than 1 teaspoon of cheese in this pie. Sorry guys but my experience of a most basic pie is lacklustre. Unlikely this review will directly affect your high rating but pie wanters should know what to expect.

Love this place. Team are awesome. Only reason not 5 stars, music is a bit too loud. They understand why gluten free is so important. So totally coeliac friendly

Elisa Hall

Once again we had a great family birthday dinner. We shared 5 dishes amongst four of us. Two hungry teenagers. Asked for everything gluten free and it was brought out quickly. Prior our cocktails and mock tails were served. The food was great and great service. We will be back again soon

Rose Brown

Rose Brown

Great friendly service, love the gluten free pizza

Katie Ayrton

What a delicious lunch. Staff were helpful and friendly. The outdoor area was basic but serviceable. The meal was full of taste despite my mushroom meal being vegan and gluten free. The chef may have removed the allergens but he kept in the taste! My friend really enjoyed her pumpkin filo pastry. Prices were also reasonable at $22 and $18.

Matt Gardiner

Great service from Ella, nice and friendly and was great in helping us sort out what could be made gluten free

Carl

Really enjoyed the Lamb Shish. They were also able to do one gluten free. Nice seated area at the back.

Lara M-W

Amazing to have somewhere to safely eat from as a coeliac!

R Richardson

The food and service in this place is great. The food is tasty, well presented and the prices are good. The mains are offered in two sizes and prices. The menu offers plenty of choices with lots of gluten free and vegetarian options. The staff and atmosphere make it a cosy, relaxing place to eat, with lots of small rooms converted to dining rooms. Will definitely go back and would recommend for a lovely night out as a date night or a group of friends.

Karmyn Sage Gunn

Such an amazing place to eat. As someone who is gluten free and vegetarian finding places to eat with good food can be very challenging, but these guys even had options! Great service, fun decor and great food. Highly recommend

Beautiful dishes cooked freshly from the Lone Star kitchen. Lovely staff that will help and wait patiently for your decision on the large range menu. Food is warm and displayed in a rustic old cowboy themed restaurant. The seating arrangements are slightly crowded and the servers are often struggled with the demand on food and orders. Easy access for wheel chairs and a disabled toilet available. The restaurant is very good for children and young families due to the large range menu and separate children meals and desserts. Overall the restaurant is beautiful and welcoming to all. My mother had her birthday there tonight and was over joyed as i have very severe allergies and they were able to cater for me with a menu for allergies that are dairy,egg,nut,gluten free etc. I was particularly impressed my our server Renee. Renee was very bubbly and helpful and accommodated all our requests. She was really genuine and a real asset to Lone Star. I highly recommend this restaurant and hope everyone has a lovely time there.

Adrienne Newman

There's nothing to fault about Turmeric Cafe. If I could give more stars for service, I would. The beautiful food caters for everyone. Vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, keto....you won't be disappointed.

Tania Walklin

They have the best gluten free cakes so delicious

AJ Williams

I've had a descent experience here before but was a bit averages this time. Service: Server didn't know what coeliac means. Everyone that ordered chips was up looking for tomato sauce. Servers blasting spray cleaner everywhere but not really wiping the tables. Food: $2 upcharge for aoili on a small $28 burger. No presentation. Coffee is incredibly strong tasting, great if that is your thing I suppose. Server plopped the coffee a down and left us to figure out which was Americano and which was long black Atmosphere: place is loud. The cold wind from the door leading outside was unpleasant. Tables was cramped for 2 people and was set with 4 chairs.

James Webber

Fantastic Flat white. My kids love the gluten free bagels. Laid back cafe friendly helpful staff. Great looking cafe to check out for good coffee.

Anja Fallen

Always a nice experience. The burgers are well made, the flavors are great and the service is really friendly. My recent burger lacked some seasoning, which isn't usually the case and my friends all found theirs to be spot on. Their beef burgers can be made gluten free with their GF buns that are really nice and don't taste much different to a regular bun.

Paul Comer

They'll substitute gluten free gf bread in most of their things, making it a really easy place for a celiac. And the kids loved the bottomless pancakes on Saturday mornings

RissandDean Brown

Even when they have a full house, they do their best to accommodate you and make you feel like you are meant to be there. Food is great, service top notch and they understand the importance of GF to a celiac 🥰 thanks to the great team!

Anita Edwards

Not so great for me, hot chips too greasy and way too salty, I love hot chips and I couldn't eat them. Service was fine, but staff didn't really engage like in some places. Music too loud to talk easily. On the plus side hot choc was lovely. Food in cabinet looked good, but I couldn't see much choice as a gluten-free person.

Robert Chivers

They do gluten free pizza 🍕 😋

Margaret Simmonds

Great place. Nearly one of the best gluten free places inhave been to. Coffee was good. My family were with me .

Claire Cummings

Amazing food! Not just at the RSA but the catering by Mark and Rebecca is impeccable!!! Get in touch with them for your next catering event. The best gluten free options too.

Jann Farr

Fab place loving it . Good gluten free knowledge

Pete Baines

Gluten free food was not good and service was not good

Margaret Rapley

Very efficient was delivered to my motel exactly the time they said it would take. I was so happy because no one answered the phone for McFonalds for me to order to motel i had no car and it was raining so could not walk. I also rang KFC and the girl was extremely rude and almost yelled at me that i have to order online . So im grateful for the efficient pleasant way i was treated by Dominos and they even had Gluten free very happy Thank you very much as a visitor to your country from Australia well done in making me welcome

Dan Hickson

Always consistently great, they provide gluten free soy on request which is a nice touch

Irena Kennedy

The coffee and service is fantastic at this fabulous cafe at 52 fitzherbert st in Petone, I highly recommend it my vegan / gluten free goodness bowl was amazing!!!! A wonderfully diverse range of food for all eaters and did I mention the delicious good fortune coffee.

Chantelle Nunez

Incredible!! Best Turkish I've ever had!!! Such a generous portion of chicken so I think it's fairly priced considering that. Fresh salad. Gluten free dairy free. Hint: read the menu 😀

Paula Rivero Esteban

First day of checking vaccine passes. Front of house person handled it very well albeit apologetic for having to ask. Chef made me a gluten free toasted sandwich which was so delicious. Very friendly staff.

Ambreen K-E

Lovely gluten free food. Comfy atmosphere. Friendly service. I had the "burger of the week", which they switched to gluten free. Yummy 😍

Fantastic. Delicious Indian food. Huge variety of options, including for vegetarians and those gluten free. Amazing masala dosa - like a piece of art. Friendly, efficient service and warm and cosy. Highly recommend.

Lucy & luke

Great food! Chef made the potato hash gluten free just for me! Amazing coffee as per usual 🩷

Chris Melville

The food and atmosphere are great, however we had a coeliac in our group and he was violently ill for the following days, the staff don't seem interested in catering to dietary needs. Best to avoid if you want to keep your villi.

Joanna Llewellyn

Huge pieces of fish... and gluten free fish is an option!!! Reasonably priced...

Lewis Saunders

Really good food and friendly staff. All the curries were gluten free and they even had gluten free Naan!
