Top 50 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots to Enjoy in Ann Arbor

I was traveling a did a to go order. I got 3 pieces of fried chicken, French fries, and a brownie. The French fries were amazing. The chicken was less than stellar. The chicken itself was good but the breading was inedible. It was hard and brown and flavorless. The brownie was okay. Happy to get gluten free food, not worth the 40 price tag for 3 pieces of chicken, French fries and a brownie.

Gluten free pancakes prepared separately & safely. HUGE gluten free menu.

Hannah Becker

My favorite restaurant for gluten free food in Ann Arbor!

Briana Abeldt

The food is absolutely incredible, as are the cocktails. The service is impeccable. They have gluten free options marked on the menu and the server took very good care of us.

Hannah Becker

Excellent and crave worthy food. Have separate option for ordering with celiac and have a dedicated fryer.

Jeanna DeMond

One of my favorite places in Ann Arbor. I could have French toast/pancakes/ waffles and be completely fine. Highly recommend

Kellie High

Love this place, this has become our "go to"! Our family members that are local took us here when our daughter was transferring to U of M and we must go back every time I visit. They have yummy gluten free options too! Highly recommended!

Bora Esenler

Refreshing, authentic & quality food. We’ll be regulars here when in town. Definitely better then continental or regular classic breakfast. The products are organic and produce are fresh. They have gluten free options!!!

I ordered a gluten free cheese pizza to go. The crust was so chewy, my jaw hurt. Toppings were extremely scarce, it was mostly bread.

The first time I tried Seva in Ann Arbor, Michigan, I ordered the spicy green curry. While I'm not a vegetarian, I have a gluten allergy, so this dish was safe for me. I enjoyed it, but I felt it was missing some spices, so I added salt and pepper. My husband ordered the portabella caprese on a gluten-free bun. When the order arrived, we double-checked, and it turned out the bread was not gluten-free. We've had similar experiences at other restaurants, so we always ask twice. Since my husband and I often switch dishes to taste each other's food, we make sure everything is gluten-free. We had to wait an additional 15 minutes for them to correct the order. Despite this hiccup, I still recommend Seva, especially if you're vegan, vegetarian, or have a gluten allergy. It's a safe place to eat.

Delicious ice cream! The vanilla caramel is my favorite thus far. The flight gives us 4 small portions of our choosing which is perfect for my wife, two small kids, and I. Staff is young and friendly and the chalk board is a nice touch for the kids. Glad I don't live within walking distance of here, otherwise, I'd be here everyday. Also, they clearly label which options are gluten free. Doesn't matter to me, but nice for those looking out for that.

Deven Minke

Always stop by when I'm in Ann Arbor! Food is incredible, and the staff go above and beyond to make food as celiac safe as possible!

David Kovacs

According to the wife the gluten free pizza is great!

Hannah Becker

They label gluten free on your take out and understand what celiac is. They do make a claim that they can’t confirm 0% risk of cross contact but they take all precautions.

Island Ewert

Service was great! Server was knowledgeable about gluten allergy concerns they walked me through the menu and the appropriate things that could be substituted so I could make a decision. There was more than just salad options. And they even had a dedicated fryer for French fries! I got a side of fries with my chicken and did not have any adverse reactions. I'd recommend when you make a reservation that you indicate any allergies they need to be aware of so they can be prepared and begin with that in mind. I would recommend them! Also it's not explicitly fancy, but definitely a snappy casual or higher kind of place. Plan accordingly!

Hoda was the best waitress ever!!! The food was amazing!!! The best chicken Schwarma ever. I have a gluten allergy and Hoda made sure my meal was prepared perfectly!!! Lovely evening out!! We live 1.5 hours away from this restaurant and we would drive here anytime!!

NiQuesha

This was my first time here. And, the service and food were great! I had the half slab of ribs with two sides (collards, rice and beans) and cornbread. Since I’m gluten free, I opted out on the cornbread and was offered to add an extra side to supplement. I went with half wet half dry on the ribs. Both tasted great, but I think I’m a fan of the wet. I had a few sauces to try and I loved the original and sweet. Another customer recommended that I try the vinegar sauce, and although I’m not a fan of it on my ribs, I loved it in my collard greens. I will definitely be back to try the brisket and pulled pork.

Scott Sheridan

I’ve been coming to Ann Arbor for decades and I’m embarrassed to admit this is the time I have come here. Amazing vegan and gluten free dishes and desserts. We can’t wait to come back!

Evan Wylie

As a person with celiac disease this place is great for gluten free options. Dedicated fryer for the house made chips, excellent salsa you can tell is made fresh. The Shredded Beef and Chicken taste great, and the FLAN! Best I’ve ever had and I could come here for that alone. Great place

Grace Su Ming

Food was great! Prices are so affordable and portions good. I Loved the tamales ! I got a pineapple and cheese tamale. The salsas were very flavorful. Staff very kind. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options.

Allie Vann

Favorite quick burger spot. I always order online and pick it up. They have a great gluten free bun.

Susan Martin

Tyler was wonderful. We had to wait a while for someone to notice us. We were there during happy hour so I got a Margarita and my daughter got pretzel bites. They were very good as was their veggie burger. I got a California Chicken with a lettuce bun. My side of fries was very small with mostly very overdone small ones. My Chicken was very tough with no flavor. The guacamole was a tiny dollop on the lettuce. Again Tyler was a Gem but regardless of the location, the food seems to be less than delicious. I have celiac and this is a safe place. It just hasn't been anywhere near delicious.

Alyssa Merna

Gluten free BBQ Pizza was top notch

Girlie Kulp

It was my first time at Carlyle Grill in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The ambiance was great, there was plenty of parking, and the service was fast. I ordered the Chicken Avocado Club on a gluten-free bun, and my husband had the Classic Cheeseburger on a gluten-free bun. The menu indicated that items marked "GF" could be prepared gluten-free. From what I recall, only the burgers and sandwiches had the "GF" designation, otherwise, I would have ordered something else. The food was good and tasty, with generous portions, though it was a bit pricier compared to other places.

Kathleen LaTosch

Lovely mid-September late lunch at the 100% vegan street side cafe. Waiter recommended a customer favorite - the Reuben - which was delicious, especially the sauerkraut! He also brought me a complimentary sampler cup of Chana masala soup since it was my first time there. I could have had more - also delicious. Highly recommend and will come back! Lots of gluten free options too.

Emma Mertens

Vertex is the best coffee shop in Ann Arbor. Great atmosphere (so many plants!) friendly knowledgeable staff, all gluten free snacks and lots of vegan options my personal favorite is the brownie! the coffee is delicious and roasted by the owner and they have signature latte flavors for each season which are all so yummy you can get a coffee flight to try multiple. the shop uses sustainable practices like compostables and reusables. I love that its locally owned and so welcoming to community! you can make your drink sparkly with pride and donate money to lgbtq charity. I really won't drink coffee from anywhere else in Ann Arbor or ypsi.

Sharla Mohney

Love it here! Everything is delicious and they even have gluten free & dairy free choices!! Yummy 😋

Delaney Fedewa

So good! I was extremely excited to see that they have so many gluten-free options, as I was getting discouraged looking for options in the area. Healthy, yummy, feel-good food!

Taco

We did a pick up order and not that far from the place, and when we got there we had to wait like 3 more minutes, but the noodles were hot and fresh! Staff were pleasant and the noodles tasted amazing, probably one of the best! The Gluten free Mac and cheese was great! I would definitely consider this business!

Roxanne Jensen

The service and food quality was impeccable as always! The server even went so far as to mark each item on the menu that was safe for me to eat, since I have a gluten allergy! She had recommendations for substitutions and all the modifications ready to go, it was a great experience.

Torri Shenise

Great drinks! Gluten free buns!!!!!!

Cynthia McCall

Absolutely delicious. Lots of gluten free options. Thank you so much for making wonderful and safe options. Highly recommend.

Jeff March

It is the one place my wife can get a gluten free bun that is good the food and service is good

The atmosphere is nice and so are the ladies working there. I ordered the shrimp bruchetta which was sloppily drenched in a bland sauce w/ a long piece of hair on my cheese toast. The waitress and manager went above and beyond to attempt to rectify the situation....cooking staff obviously needs to wear hair nets. My co-woker ordered a gluten-free salad which wasn't and she had a reaction. I wouldn't return or recommend.

Phebe Jones

Waiter was: blatantly disregarding celiac needs, confused about allergies, irritated when asking about allergies or food modifications, didn't listen for orders. Menu was not as expansive as the East Lansing location either having no gluten free and vegan options for allergies. Waiter was rude about allergy needs and needing to modify items. Do not recommend this location.

mikayla peterson

Oh yum! Ordered takeout and it was nothing but delicious! Friendly staff and I’ll definitely be going back :) I always wish that chicken shawarma was gluten-free but it’s no fault of the restaurant. It’d be great to see more gluten free options on the menu!

Margaret Svoboda

It is hard to find a coffee place that has anything gluten-free. The Drip House has a variety to choose from. As someone with a gluten allergy, I really appreciate the choices.

Govind Sharma

Ive seen this place a few times passing by but never went in. Today i did and it was great. The service was kind, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere was cool. The staff were serving me with a smile and the restaurant has these huge glass windows to let a lot of light in. They also have a lot of options; gluten free bun, vegan patties, a variety of toppings. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good quality burger for that late night burger craving. 5/5

Ersyla Nellajoy

The short take is hillarysa market and Cafe is a gem way out by Speedway on Maple and Miller. The long story is I wanted meat an thought a hamburger. But I'm gluten free so only certain places have been free buns etc. I knew Harissa was close to me so i went in bought three lovely lamb beef gluten-free meatballs on a bed of perfect saffron rice. as I enjoyed my meal I surrounded by beautiful handcrafted gift ideas and imported Delicacies. I think I might make this my regular Friday treat.

Andrea Klooster

My book club has been meeting here, which is always wonderful. Tonight was our first time coming for dinner for a special date night. The food was excellent, from the tortilla chip flight to our fabulous entrees (the salmon and the cherry burger) to a delicious and unusual Indonesian dessert (pictured). Kaitlin took such good care of us. I especially appreciated her knowledge and attention to detail regarding my gluten free diet. We will definitely be back!

Dmitri

Tons of gluten free options, none of them apparently celiac friendly. Wife did get the gochujang wrap which she said was super tasty, and my raspberry mocha latte was delicious, just wish I could have eaten something.

Nicole Pumarada

Food was delicious, even the naan, which is always the iffy thing at Indian restaurants, imo. The only thing I didn't like was that the muttar paneer was a little sweet. Lots of vegan and gluten free options.

Reply Wilson

Had the gluten-free crust pizza with spinach, shrimp, pesto instead of tomato sauce, mushroom n roasted garlic. Magnificent!

David Nauer

Great gluten free menu

L. Murphy

Met up with friends for brunch. I called ahead and made a reservation since there were 8 of us. Reservation was made very easily, the table was waiting for us when we arrived, Everything we ordered was really good. I have celiac and I was able to order the club sandwich with GF toast, which was so good, Everything was fresh. Everyone was very nice. We will definitely go back.

N G

Best gluten free crust I’ve ever had! There is a wide range of unique and yummy topping menu options

Jill VanDerziel

We had the best experience at Fire House Subs on Washtenaw Ave in Ann Arbor. My son has celiacs and the owner and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate our allergy. They have a dedicated space where gluten-free sandwiches are made as well as all separate condiments. They were so friendly and understanding. We will definitely be back! We appreciate them!

Katie Schneider

The poke was so fresh and tasty. The staff really helped with my gluten tolerance and made me really comfortable eating their food

Emy Moore

All meals and ciders are GF

Caryn Walker

Filet was over cooked but potatoes, broccolini and crème brûlée were amazing! Such cool history in the building. Worth a walk around inside and out! Nice gluten free option and well educated servers.
