Top 14 Gluten-Free Kid-Friendly Spots to Explore in Amherst

If you eat gluten free and you have not been here yet, you absolutely must visit. My fiance and I were traveling to Buffalo when I heard about Vin Chet on the Find Me Gluten Free app. I was just diagnosed with celiac disease about a year ago and it’s been a hard adjustment as someone who has eaten gluten forever. This was the first time I have ever found a dedicated gluten free facility of any kind, and I wish I could keep coming back each week. Not only is the selection of sandwiches, desserts, bread and pantry items incredible- but the customer service is top tier. Since we won’t be able to come back for awhile, we got some paninis for lunch (which were INCREDIBLE) and a handful of goods to go. We talked with who I can only assume was an owner about the history of their business as well, and she was incredibly kind. She gave us a few free donuts after we finished up shopping just because I had mentioned that our hometown does not have any gluten free restaurants or bakeries. As silly as it is for some, this visit was so comforting and needed. This is the first time in a year I have truly enjoyed myself and didn’t have to feel the stress of asking questions for celiac reasons. The employees were all so kind and welcoming. I’m looking forward to coming back the next time I’m in the area.

Would you eat this raw gluten-free pizza? Me neither. I brought it home to cook it further because they couldn’t at the restaurant despite having an oven. Their (begrudging) solution was to make an entirely new trash pizza which I politely declined. I took my $20 raw pizza home and am currently trying to air/fry bake it. Updates later. Update: cooking an extra 10 minutes at 450 at home fully cooked the crust which should’ve been done at the store. It’s much crispier, though only slightly more brown, and doesn’t taste, look and feel like raw dough in the middle anymore. Edible at best.

My wife and I were looking for a new restauarnt for chinese food and decided to try Golden Duck. We are very glad we did. I have to avoid wheat and was really glad to see the Golden Duck online menu has a button that let's you filter down to everything they offer that can be made gluten free. That is a great option, and thanks for doing that. The food we received was excellent. Nice and spicy, the way we like it! We will definitely be back and will likely dine in next time.

I hate to say it but tge food was terrible. I ordered the gluten-free crepe breakfast with bacon. The bacon was the only good tasting item on that plate! The homefries was hard and tasteless and don'teven . It's just a sucky feeling when you are charged all most 30 dollars for your entire plate to be thrown in the trash

We heard Jersey Mike’s had gluten free subs and were so happy with the quality of the sub as well as the professional staff! My daughter has celiac’s and misses subs so much! The staff was very courteous to us and took preparing her sub very seriously! We will definitely be coming back and recommending this particular store to all our friends!

The food is great the service is great. it’s inside a huge strip mall, so not an amazingly interesting atmosphere. Easy to park. Food is worth it if you need a healthy yummy meal. Lots of vegetarian and gluten free options

They have very good blackberry margaritas. They have a good burger given it is corporate food. And of course chips and salsa which used to be free but aren't anymore. They have some gluten free options. All in all it isn't bad.

The food was really good and they are good about the gluten free diet restrictions. Our waitress was super sweet and we had a really nice time. Everyone was friendly. The parking lot is a little small when they are busy but overall I would go back often.

The best Italian food we’ve had in Buffalo. Dishes took awhile to come out but it was worth the wait. They also have gluten free options.
