Top 50 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots to Explore in Joplin

Barb Schaefer

Very unique menu. Very helpful and friendly staff. Hats off to the chef as the food was delicious. There were several gluten free options which is great!

Kathleen Harwood

A very health and delicious menu. Have gluten free options + other allergy free options. The veggie mixed sandwich was so yummy!!!!!

Abigail Dutoit

Can't really go wrong with a Barbacoa Burrito Bowl that's deliciously gluten and dairy free! This location gave very generous portions and we left feeling a bit over-full 😅 Unfortunately, this location has no changing tables in the bathrooms so we had an uncomfortable emergency diaper change on the dirty bathroom floor. This is the third location I've been to now without changing tables which is incredibly frustrating in today's day and age. Do better Chipotle.

This is our go to place for gluten free pizza, and you can’t beat the service! Tiff is amazing and always provides 5-star service. Even if we aren’t in her section, she makes a point to come by and make sure we have everything we need. Great service, great food. Next time you go, ask for Tiff!

Nate Blanchard

Went for a lunch date with my bride, great atmosphere, enough food we could have shared, ended up with leftovers for both of us. They worked with dairy & gluten issues, but was very limiting of their menu. Food was still very good! Daniel was very attentive server. Thank you all!

Vance Sandy

Love McAlisters. The chicken salad and baked potato was very good! The iced tea is always good there. My wife has gluten allergies, so she ordered her sandwhich without the bun. She also had a baked potato. They use Daisy sour cream for those of us with MSG allergies, which is great.

i came in at lunchtime, there were only a couple of people in line, but the woman working the register was ON POINT pitching in to help expedite food prep and using gloves!! (gloves on when handling food, gloves off when handling money, then new gloves) so she was actually speeding up service but not contaminating food ❤️❤️❤️ i was super impressed!! also answered questions about the cajun seasoning (it IS gluten free!😁) and no breading goes in their fryer so its a great place for me to get fries. service was extra friendly. the fries, as always, were delicious. and they dont make me sick. five stars for five guys!! yall literally made my day

Can anyone explain why Olive Garden insist they are Gluten Free but actually are not ?? Is it just a market ploy to get people in ??

I've dined here multiple times with excellent experiences. The only thing I wish they would have a more expanded menu for gluten free. Just adding gluten free bread options and a GF pasta would make a huge difference in my options for a meal.

Darrell Douglas

First off the service was amazing. Food came out hot and look good. The shakes where good and was filling. They do have gluten free pasta and it didn't taste like cardboard. Little pricey but well worth it

Leilani Lou Halvorsen

Great service. Gluten free sandwich meal available.

Evelyn Kinder

Jeremy Buchite

Very pleased with the service food was wonderful. One of the best restaurant experience have had in a long. Prices very reasonable and good selection of meats and vegetables and a good gluten free selection. The only suggestion I would have is to have servers ask people if it is the first time in so new people would have a idea on what to do. Was very pleased with the servers explanation when we asked how it worked though.

Kat Conaway

I will say this they went above and beyond today when we was there. We haven't had jersey Mike's since we moved back to this area. I have a horrible gluten intolerance they went above and beyond to make sure I didn't get any gluten they made sure to clean everything so there was no gluten touching my gluten free bread 🙌🏼 I highly recommend this location they take allergies seriously when it comes to them ! I will for sure be going back they have the best gluten free bread I've had in a long time!

Lisa Culpepper Mays

The food was PERFECTLY cooked, and everything was delicious. The service was quick, friendly, and helpful. I need to eat gluten-free, so eating out can be frustrating. But not when you eat here! I had a question about a menu item, and when the waitress heard I needed to eat gluten-free, she said, “We actually have a gluten-free menu. Would it be helpful to see that?” YES! Thank you, Outback, for making it easier for your customers who are on restrictive diets to make informed choices as they order. I wish ALL restaurants were this helpful!

Sandra Reser

They have items they claim are gluten free, I am super gluten intolerant. I was sick for 3 days. Do not trust the gluten free items

Jamie Allen

Pizza was just ok. The gluten-free crust tasted good! But nothing outstanding about everything else, just standard pizza stuff. Ordered a side salad. It was large, but the salad dressing tasted rancid.

Leah Haines

Comfy atmosphere, delicious food, prompt service. The food is prepared perfectly, not too greasy or dizzled in cheese. (Unless you choose the cheese-encumbered meal) A great place to relax and enjoy yourself. There are lots of vegan and gluten-free options as well!

Scott McCully

I love the sandwiches (the bread has to be from heaven it is so good). The pizza and soups are great as well. They have gluten free and vegetarian options.

Leilani Lou Halvorsen

Great. They have included gluten free food on their menu. Great service, keep their store clean.

Cindy Carson

Peter Blomgren

We Love Moe's! Our family has a lot of dietary restrictions. Many restaurants look at you funny when you start changing their menu or asking them to leave stuff off. Moe's is built to customize everything. Build it your way from the beginning. With two of us staying off carbs and one gluten allergy the bowls are perfect. Can't recommend this friendly place enough.

Joseph Desmond

Great food and service. Theybwere able to help with gluten allergies and were very friendly.

Christina Svec

The food was amazing, but the staff was incredible. I asked for some mango to give to my infant. They were kind enough to peel AND slice it up for her. She loved the steamed veggies that were full of mushrooms. My Pad Thai and my husband's General Magic were also delish. I have celiac, and they were knowledgeable about gluten content. No celiac attack!

Tammy Eccleston

Brought my grandkids here for dinner. Didn't see a children's menu on the board, so they both had a regular meal. 98% of the time I go with their "low carb" pizza. It is gluten free and tastes great. They offer wine and beer with in door dining.

Jeremy Nienkamp

Awesome sushi, great staff! My wife has celiac's and they are always accommodating.

Abbey Elmore

Amazing and fresh food. Staff is knowledgeable about gluten free dishes.

Deb Decker

Took our family there and had four varieties of pizza, including the gluten free. Every one of them was EXCELLENT! Crust dough is actually fermented overnight. Definitely recommend it.Fed nine people for $98.

Rachel Zachary

Great location, friendly staff, and the service you’d expect from Chick Fil A! Love the gluten free bun!

R Jones

If you are Gluten-free don't get fries, they say they are gluten friendly but fried in oils that fry gluten products. Their side salad says mixed green, but it's Romaine and iceberg not friendly on you gut.

Julie Snowbarger

We ordered 2 large pizzas for New Years Eve and were very impressed!!! They got them ready quickly for us even though we were early, they were hot and fresh. The pizzas were very good and we loved all of the options from gluten free to keto. We love stuffed crusts and can honestly say Simple Simon's is the best of all. The counter person was helpful.and accommodating. Restaurant was clean and inviting. We know our pizza and we highly recommend them!!!

Lora Ness

Always awesome!! Best gluten-free crust around!

Chester Lord

SiSi Herd

Incredible food and incredible ladies. It’s always the same waitresses every time I come in, which is such a good sign. They have great healthy and gluten free options. Their food is priced so well and give big portions. I always look forward to coming here. ALSO, I was there for Christmas Day. Yes it was insanely busy. But many different people had the audacity to bring in their whole family of 15, to eat at a truck stop restaurant instead of staying home and cooking for themselves. Their kitchen was very short staffed and the manager made sure to let us all know many times. She was so sorry and stayed on top of everything. There was open tables while people were standing around, but that’s because the kitchen was so backed up, they couldn’t handle anymore orders. But as soon as we all got seated, our food was our in 5 minutes, no lie. Do not go to any restaurant on Christmas Day with any complaints, or just stay home.

Brandon Cline

My grandparents go here several times a week, the owners are very lovely people who are nice to everybody, even if they may annoy him a little bit 😀. My grandfather has cancer and it's his favorite place to go, even if he isn't feeling good he still makes it out. They have keto options for me and gluten free for my grandmother.

Tahirah Delaney

They have gluten free dairy free food but not ice cream but that is ok. Friendly and fun.

Lindsey Benfield

We all loved the food here. Lots of options to choose from. They're able to accommodate gluten free and vegan as well. Friendly staff and knowledgeable about ingredients in their dishes.

Kim Law

Great gluten free pizza

Heather Carlson

My favorite place in town for a salad or gluten free sandwich!

Angie Fenske

Waiting on my food, but the person who took my order this evening was amazing in accommodating my gluten allergy...I stark contrast to my only other experience here. There also have excellent procedures to avoid cross-contamination. Great choices available for gluten-free free options, and love the beverages. I will update the review after I finish eating if there are any problems 🙃

Gabe Royer

The spinach artichoke dip comes with the most amazing, warm naan bread pieces and the rest of the food is excellent. Gluten free crust is great as well for the pizza. Wait staff has always been great.

Bev Ashley

Y’all. This girl can cook!!!! I’m celiac and I got to eat fried catfish, greens, beans. It was delicious!

Toni Johnson

My boyfriend and I love coming and eating here. They made me grilled alligator bites because I recently found out I have a gluten allergy. I appreciate them being so accommodating. The staff is always so friendly and fun.

Leilani Lou Halvorsen

Great service. Can set your meal up to gluten free.

Brice Metheney

I don't exactly have high expectations when it comes to Burger King, but these guys are genuinely a good team with a fantastic service ethic (from the outside looking in) I'd like to mention in particular the man with the colorful beard for his outgoing demeaner and the man working the window for quickly noticing I was missing a bag of my food before I could drive away. Nobody likes having to circle back around for their food so this is definitely appreciated. Also worth mentioning was the kind lady working the payment window for her bubbly demeanor and kindness. Thanks also goes the line cooks for taking my gluten allergy into consideration when preparing my food! Your GM/RM should be proud, this is how you do fast food right.

Todd Cowett

In town for a baseball tournament, my wife has to be gluten free....so we love BBQ joints. It was close, and not busy so we gave it a shot. We generally try to stay away from chains...but not today. It was actually really good. The employee asked us to be patient because she was the only employee working....which was fine. She was friendly, and helpful, and we got everything really quick, like less than 5 min, for our party of 4. All the meat was delicious, sides were great, kids ate everything on their plates, and the price was acceptable. I don't think there was anything at all that was less than excellent. 10/10.

Teresa Stevens

Best one in the area over the other Joplin one or the Neosho Denny's. Servers were great, good Denny's food, reasonable amount of wait time to get food. I appreciate the menu having GF on items that are considered gluten free. The waitress took our special requests and got it all right the first time and in a timely manner.

Adam Houghton

An eclectic mix of gardening, food and coffee. We came for garden supplies and were surprised by the overall setting which was comfortable as it was functional. They have an excellent gluten free menu and a number of people seemed to be hanging out for the food and atmosphere. Definitely a nice spot to read and enjoy a snack and coffee and we went home with some lovely flowers to plant.

Cindy Woolery Anderson

We were there off hours and had the place to ourselves, but I could tell it's geared towards kids and family. Food was good but slightly spendy. Pretty much self serve except for the person behind the register. Their gluten-free pizza crust was a ringer for regular, and their wings were not the mass produced breaded mystery meat you get some places, but actual chicken wings fried crisp.

Jon Russell

Great barbeque. Everything was delicious. Make sure you leave room for the locally sourced cheesecake and cobbler with ice cream! They have gluten free options as well.
