We got the tempura, some sushi, swordfish, bruschetta! Everything was unreal. The cocktails and mocktails were very well made too! Fully Gluten Free restaurant which was amazing for celiacs! Highly recommend.

Divine Blinds

Best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had! Price was good too. 10/10

James H

Thank you SO MUCH for all the gluten free options. Amazing service. Place could do a masterclass on poached eggs (my grandmother would have been very impressed)

Bowie

Best gluten product i ever had . Extremely nice lady at the store offered a few products as a gift of purchase since I mentioned I just got out of an ab surgery and are very limited to choice of food in recoverstage (no gluten , egg and dairy) . In love with the cream puff and lemon walfer. The muffin took me by surprise after the first bite from the oven. Never had to go for McDonald breakfast sandwich ever , perfect replacement. Gluten free life is pleasant with all the kinnikinnick product

Lindsey Campbell

Me and my son love this place, as it’s a really good gluten free option, that actually tastes good! Would definitely recommend!

Paul Roney

Hands down, one of the best REAL gluten free places in Calgary.

Amanda Joy

Amazing food. Attentive service. They even have a sign at the front of the restaurant reinforcing their gluten free space and ask that no outside food or drink be brought in as a safeguard to ensure it remains gluten free. You can eat here with confidence. It was truly a delightful experience!

Valerie Cote

My daughter and her husband took me out for dinner last night and chose this restaurant because it was gluten free. What a win! They were featuring a concert band and we were seated in the first seat, right beside them. We thought at first that it would be too noisy, and it was! But what fun! As my daughter said, "We get to visit all the time, but when do we get to be entertained like this?" As expected, the food was great and I didn't have to worry about being sick. It was very special, and we will be back.

Just had an amazing experience at Selia Bar and had to share! The entire place is 100% gluten free, which was such a relief — no need to worry about cross-contamination at all. It’s so refreshing to be able to choose anything from the menu without second-guessing or stressing. There were so many delicious options to pick from, and everything we tried was fantastic. Our server, Erick, was absolutely wonderful — friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience even better with his thoughtful service. If you’re looking for a safe and genuinely enjoyable place to eat out, I highly recommend Selia Bar. I left feeling full, happy, and totally at ease.

Monica Lantz

Cannot recommend more! It was safe for celiacs and even made a carnivore say he could become vegetarian. Really beautiful and tasty food! The staff is so polite and kind.

Isabella Herring

Great gluten free options!

Lance L. Unser

I’m a Celiac and they had so many options for me it was AMAZING. I haven’t had Sushi and Tempura Shrimp and Calamari in YEARS The staff are amazing so helpful and it was so much fun. Words cannot describe how wonderful this experience was

Cassie Curry Adams

Staff is very friendly and helpful. Everything I have tried has been delicious! My favorites have been the feta and spinach flat bread and mini donuts. Great spot for Celiacs to eat without worry!

Lorin Smith

Dedicated fryers, train staff, DELISH food! Get the pork dumplings and sesame chicken! This was such a treat!

Greg Widmeyer

Best gluten free pizza I've ever had!

Jadyn Brown

Love this place! They have so many vegan,vegetarian and gluten free options it makes it easy for anyone to eat here

Katie Chalifoux

An okay diner it feels kinda tight and is loud but the fact it's gluten friendly is a big plus and on top of that the food tastes absolutely amazing, which is hard without gluten. Coffee was not fun and it was super busy. Overall it's a cute place every once in awhile, though I don't think you'd want to make it a regular spot.

Bret Collins

Fantastic pizza from the spruce meadows stand today. Had the gluten free pizza which was amazing! Also the staff working are very personable and friendly. Definitely will be continuing to get my gluten free pizza from them

Michael Moir

Good sized portions of fish and chips. Gluten free options safe for celiacs. If you plan on getting a traditional meat pie, be sure to order in advance as they can take about 35 minutes to prepare.

Jen W.

The food is incredible! The chicken crack and cauliflower is the best combination, popcorn chicken and fried cauliflower. If you’re gluten free and haven’t been here, you need to go. I come here with people who can eat gluten all the time and they also love it.

Jennifer Heard

Absolutely love Communitea Cafe in Canmore! The vibe is warm and welcoming, the food is fresh and flavourful, and there are tons of clearly marked gluten-free and vegan options. As someone with celiac disease, I felt completely safe eating here. Great service, amazing teas, and a beautiful space. Highly recommend!

Katelyn Holmes

I’m so disappointed to write this, but as a artisanal pizza/flatbread chaser - this flatbread truly disappointed me. Especially for the price. The fig & bison barely had any cheese on it, with two small slices missing the toppings. $60 with the gluten free cost added, did not feed two of us. We’re small people, with not very big appetites, but when you take away an inch of the crust from being almost burnt, the “medium” flatbread is now a small. Mediocre taste at best, but maybe if there were more toppings on it… upsetting for a first impression.

Jenn Knibb

What a lucky find and a gem of a place! We were passing through after a long day of work and in need of a good, celiac safe option for dinner. The staff was super accommodating even though they were about to close. The majority of the menu can be made gluten free and is definitely the best Vietnamese food I’ve ever had (celiac or not). Highly recommend!! We absolutely loved the gluten free spring rolls (dedicated fryer, IYKYK) and gluten free subs. The staff were so friendly and amazing at answering all our questions. Bonus: large portion sizes, all at a really good price. Will be back again that’s for sure!

Larry Lowe

Great food, all gluten free in a cool atmosphere.

Bailey Jackart

Steve was an absolute delight as our server! The food was delicious and the gluten free options were great!

Lianne Moseley

I dine in and order take out from here religiously. The food is consistently really good and they are so extremely careful with allergies. I have celiac disease and I never worry about eating here. The staff are always kind and helpful. My take out orders always arrive hot and well packaged. I really appreciate this business and all their efforts to be truly gluten free. I’ve turned many friends on to this place.. it’s everyone’s favourite spot. Love Van Son 🙌

Alex Thompson

We loved this place. Best burger I’ve had in a very long time (bison burger), plus the waiter was first class. They catered really well for my coeliac wife and the beers they had from the 3 Bears local brewery were excellent too.

Makenna Short

Great for gluten free! Awesome staff

Eric Schultz

The Next Act is the quintessential third place. The staff is always welcoming and make you feel like you're at friend's place, not a restaurant. And their gluten free fish and chips is a real treat for those of us with Celiac 🥰

zamacity61

Fantastic little diner on the east side of Airdrie, tucked into a strip mall... easy to find with plenty of parking nearby. Went for Sunday brunch and weren't disappointed. One of our party is celiac and requires a gluten free menu, Abe's features many GF options, the veggie scramble was amazing. The rest of us enjoyed burgers and a chorizo Benny. Good if not great service so we will be back. Especially for the gluten free pancakes!

Kayla Legge

Called in first due to severe gluten allergy before ordering through Skip, was assured everything can be prepared safely. Separate fryers and safe preparation areas, even got a kick-ass spicy donair poutine! I don't trust many places due to cross contamination, I have had no reaction thus far from this place and it was SOOOO good!! Totally worth the money any day! Thank you so much, will order again!

Marc Quinn

Absolutely amazing food, everything is fresh. Highly recommend to anyone with celiac. And if you're an egg person, these are the freshest eggs I've had in a very long time.

Sergio Pintore

Food was amazing, staff was great, and what a view! My wife is celiac and she was so happy about the GF options! If you’re traveling to the Rockies, you can’t miss this place! 🍔🍟🥗

Joelle

Yum! The double cheeseburger & fries were delicious. I got the gluten-free bun, which was soft and fluffy 😇 I am highly sensitive to gluten cross contamination and get sick from the smallest exposure. I was fine, felt great after with no symptoms. The young person who took my order was kind and knew exactly what to say to ease my nerves around potential cross contamination. If you need a big and filling burger that is grilled to perfection, then make this place your next stop xo

Timothy Laidlaw

This place is fantastic from every aspect. The moment we stepped foot in the door we received a warm welcome. Our gluten and dairy allergies were catered for with ease. We massively over ordered but found all dishes to have such great flavour. The food is very fresh and tasted very traditional in the way it was cooked. Ben and his team are really setting the standards for how customers should be treated whilst serving amazing food right here in wonderful Calgary. We will be back

Theresa K

I love that they have gluten free.

RM

I am celiac. Everything here is amazing. All the desserts are gluten free and there's lots of variety and choice. The sandwiches can be made gf and the coffees are great. The business is female owned and operated so happy to support female entrepreneurs too. The high teas are a great excuse to get together with friends

Elizabeth H

What a delightful surprise to find an incredible vegan meal in the mountains of Alberta. My dining partner said this was the best meall they’ve ever eaten out, and I can see why. Having so many vegan and gluten-free options. That were a part of the menu, not an afterthought was delightful! The way all restaurants should be. We shared the falafel appetizer which got eaten so quickly. I didn’t get a picture. 😅 The two main dishes we had, shown in photos, we are both incredible, especially the gratine dish. Fantastic, homemade vegan cheese. The decaf coffee was great with an almond milk option. And the gluten-free, vegan tart for dessert was to die for. The staff was knowledgeable about ingredients in their dishes, and unlike some fancy restaurants, we’re quite happy to remove or add ingredients to meet dietary needs. What a beautiful dining experience. We ate outside in the patio near the street, and it was relatively quiet and a great way to enjoy the town.

Ignacio Heit

Excelente food. Great gluten free menu.

Asmae Islamii

I bought a chocolate cake gluten free it was delicious

John Truong

Hidden gem for not only the best Chinese food in Edmonton but because most of the dishes can be made gluten free!!! Staff are very knowledgeable about allergies.

Elizabeth H

Incredible gluten free (and often vegan) breads and sweets. The sourdough bread was incredible toasted with peanut butter. The tigernut cookie was a crunchy treat. And the chocolate raspberry Sammie was incredible. We came back a second time in our trip for bread to take to Jasper. So grateful to have found Food in the Nud!

Lucy P

Worst meal I’ve had in a long time. Gluten free poutine was inedible. Felt like the fries had been sitting all day. They were grease upon grease.

Rob

We had breakfast here and came back the next day for again breakfast and lunch take out. Pancakes delicious!! They have separate glutenfree menu, all options i had where amazing. Kind service.

Patrick Turvey

We really enjoyed our breakfast at Rocky Mountain Bagel Company during a recent trip to Canmore. The food and coffee were great and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. They also offer some great gluten-free options too! We went one morning as soon as the restaurant opened, and within 10 minutes, there was a line up to the door - it seems to be a Canmore favourite!

Jennifer Bauer

The fish was fantastic. My husband and I both ordered the haddock, his gluten-free and mine not. I tasted both and can confirm that the gluten-free version is very close to the gluten version. The pieces were large (I couldn't finish mine). The fries and rings were both great. The servers had a miscommunication about who was dealing with our table, but once they realised the mistake the service was as quick as you'd expect in any restaurant. Will definitely be back.

Aaron Kelemen

Have been here a couple of times. It’s very good and great for celiac friendly gluten-free options!
