Top 24 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots to Enjoy in Mermaid Beach

Oli Jenkinson

Great to see a dedicated gluten free cafe with options. I drove down from Palm Beach specifically because they cater for food sensitivities which I’m really glad to see here. Unfortunately the food was underwhelming. Spent $52 for just me on 2 dishes and an iced coffee. Coffee was great, but the two dishes were very basic. The hollandaise sauce was the bulk buy wholesale stuff and the salad in the crepe was the same as what you get in Coles. Would be happy to pay more per dish if the quality was increased. This might be perfectly ideal for people who are happy with spots solely due to gluten free options, but for the price point was a mid tier experience. If you love GF options and are happy with fusion options that are basic this will meet your needs. Unfortunately won’t be back.

Heaps of vegan options, also gluten free naan and it is the best one I've tried

Justin Allamano

best gluten free pasta we've ever eaten.

Amazing beachside cafe offering all day breakfast. Lots of options for gluten free and vegan people. We really liked the coffee and the smoothie choices. Nice vibe to sit close to the beach and see people pass by.

We were there for a friend's (my godson) 40th birthday. They looked after my Coeliac needs and requirements. Food, drink (daughter and I enjoyed the cocktails list) ambience were all spot on. The taller chairs were rather uncomfortable though.

A perfectly cosy café with indoor and outdoor dining areas. the food is superb, and the service is amazing every time we’ve been in the last 5 years . This café will make your favourite place and you can take your doggy too. The staff were are very friendly and the food authentically French, while reasonably priced and easily accessible. Also well-presented Gluten Free breakfast. Coffee was an Almond milk latte and was very smooth tasting! Overall really great experience so thanks Lucas and lovely staff If you are Gluten Free and visiting Gold Coast it is a must. Must mention their dinner set menu a must and The 1664 French beer was good as was the coffee We give it 5 out of 5

Delicious!!! We’ll be back! Despite ordering a lot (too much!) there are still lots of items on the menu we want to try. Omg those nachos. To die for. Great cocktails too :-) easy for gluten free too

Most fabulous meal I’ve ever had. Staff were incredibly attentive. I am a celiac and the entire menu was gf friendly or had a gf option!

My family met with another family for a long overdue catch up at the restaurant. We all loved the food. The restaurant was knowledgeable about properly GF food for my coeliac daughter. Everything was full of flavour and interesting. The kids meals were excellent value. The variety of drinks was wonderful. We had such a great time. We all loved it, thank you.

Amazing service, easy booking and planning and you get so much for your money with an event here! I had my 30th here over the weekend and John and the team made the whole night seemless and fun! We were able to have the whole place to ourselves, they cater for allergies and made all food fully gluten free for me and because the place is already so beautiful we didn't feel the need to buy extra decoration etc. Can't recommend enough for your next event! Would definitely book here again :)

Best coffee on the Gold Coast and beautiful Gluten free bread!

My Girlfriend took me & our other friend for lunch. I am COELIAC so we told waiter for all food to be GLUTEN FREE Well Ive had a bad reaction from this food last night wasnt good at all. Im still feeling unwell. SO NO I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ESPECIALLY to COELIACS. ITS VERY SAD THAT YOU LIED & SERVED A COELIAC PERSON GLUTEN you should be fined even jailed. DO NOT SAY YOUR FOOD IS GLUTEN FREE WHEN IT IS NOT !! Not Happy, Very Disappointed 😡

Very friendly foodie. Centrally located close to Coles. Fully Licensed. Scrumptious food and excellent Gluten Free options. Did I mention the Coffee!! mmmmm!! Plenty of parking. Highly recommended.

A large variety menu from entrees to desserts. Great quality, great prices and fast friendly service. Many gluten free options. I particularly enjoyed the special brown rice to mix with my other meals. Our first visit today and we look forward to returning.

After searching online for a cafe that suits our health and food requirements we decided to visit this place. Unfortunately when we arrived and viewed the menu, it was totally different to the menu online. We queried this and were told that their menu had recently changed. It would have been good to see this updated on the website as it was a totally different menu with limited healthy and gluten free options.

Rory T

Way to expensive for a poor experience, was asked for a plate cover for a gluten free cake when the menu had no alternatives, asked for medium rare and it came out still moo'ing, $18 broccolini was silly and the chips were limp and poor with near no rosmary

Lotta

Goof food. Good smothies. Good hot chocolate. Good Service. Good Gluten free muffins

Camila Ferreira

I loved the place, fair price, great service. I recommend the acai with LSA and gluten free granola, it's delicious!

Joanne Birrell

I am Coeliac and was very impressed with the help and knowledge of the young man who assisted me today. He went above and beyond to ensure my meal was G/F. Will definitely be back and highly recommend. The food is amazing ! Thank you

Jack Hawkins

Came in New Years Day and had the best gluten free wrap I’ve ever had in my life. This young man is the definition of what a sandwich artist is. Definitely coming back :)
