This place is amazing for celiacs!! The pizza is 10 out of 10

Lorena Sem

100% gluten free restaurant in Cusco! It’s a cute little restaurant where you don’t have to worry about ordering because everything is gluten free. If you‘re in Cusco go there. The owner has celiac disease so he knows what he’s doing.

M Walker

Great service and delicious meal (very fresh ingredients)! Vilma was our server and was very attentive. Organika had gluten free substitutes/options for most of the menu as well. This was our second time here, and we will be back! :)

Isabel Canalle

An impeccable place. Great attention! The food is delicious and you have gluten free options. One hundred percent recommended!!

Luke Yianni

Great food for people with dietary requirements. Their menu is 100% vegan and they do specify what is gluten free, the soy sauce they use is actually gluten free which is a rarity. Safe for coeliacs, my coeliac partner had a lot of options here for her. Also probably the best ceviche we’ve had in Peru!

Baris Namlioglu

I ate at Jacks twice during my stay in Cusco and really enjoyed it both times. The cappuccino was delicious, and the cheesecake was also a treat. My wife had gluten-free bread with eggs, and I tried the oatmeal bowl once and the Cuslie bowl another time—both were very tasty. The service was quick and friendly, and the prices were very reasonable, especially for the quality of the food. I can definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Cusco!

Anna Majchrzak

Cosy modern place with great dishes. Gluten free options available.

Silke Beljaars

100% GF

Gianmarco

Very delicious gluten-free breakfast!! Highly recommended!

Fateh-Karan Chohan

Celiac options available!!! The food was pretty good and I really enjoyed how many options they had for gluten free. Came back twice. The basil pasta was very good! Make sure to come earlier to get pizza or nachos!!

William McDonald

I was so happy to find some gluten free crepes, however the toppings were underwhelming and a bit bland. I ordered a sweet and savory crepe and both had quite dull flavors

Dieter Peeters

Eating in Peru with a gluten intolerance is difficult. This restaurant was a blessing. We went twice. Sat streetwise the first time and in the courtyard the second. It is a very cozy place. The food was good. We had the Gluten-free pizza 🍕 and the Gluten-free maccaroni (strangely, finding GF pasta in Peru is practically impossible). The service was friendly but not always present. We did get value for money here. With it's good location it is also a great place for people without allergies.

Silke Beljaars

Very nice GF desserts

David D

Great location. Very friendly and fast service by Jamie. Ideal if you're gluten intolerant too.

David Der

One of my best gastronomy experience in Lima. Even delicious gluten-free Spätzle, which I have never seen anywhere before. I would gives 6 stars if they had Kässpätzle 😉

Juan Sendra

My girlfriend is celiac and that's why we look for these types of places. Excellent quality of food, delicious and we were able to eat both in a spectacular way. We ordered pizzas and they surprised us by how exquisite they were! Without a doubt, a place for the celiac person to eat in peace and everyone can enjoy.

Laura Ison

Cynthia and Eve Elain took great care of us, and they have many GLUTEN FREE options! Enjoy these delicious dishes!!!!!

Ali Jacobsen

We came here on a recommendation and loved it so much we decided to come back for our last dinner in Cusco. Francisco was our waiter and he was so kind and helpful. The food was amazing and it was helpful that the gluten free options were marked on the menu. The wait staff asked about allergies during both visits. Can’t recommend this place highly enough! The farm to table concept is always a win!

Chloë Dingeldein

Absolutely delicious. Shocked the whole table when we took the first bite (in the best way). Safe for celiacs. More expensive than most places in Lima, but prices are still cheaper than what they would be in the US

Adrian Müller

Great live music, lovely atmosphere, there were even tasty glutenfree options for someome with celiac desease / intense gluten allergy (Cuy Chactado Croca and Chicharrón de Alpaca - guinea pig and alpaca meat, both really good). The staff (Abigail) took great care to ensure that glutenfree food would be recommended to me and she talked to the kitchen to find out about options for me.

Heath Milne

Lovely restaurant with really friendly staff. The food was delicious, we dined as a vegetarian and a coeliac and they catered for us perfectly. The vegan pisco sour is also a must (if you drink), it was one of the best I've had in South America!

Ana Pierr

Nice cafe for breakfast with many delicious, gluten-free and lactose-free options. Excellent service, located on a busy street and nice to walk.

Brian Landever

The environment is coffee house-quaint and calm, and service is kind and attentive. The food is good and healthy. The ingredients are wholesome, and they even make their own nut milks and gluten free bread. Flavors are a bit bland, but not so much to avoid visiting. Most flavorful dish tried was the lemon rasberry tort, as pictured. The place is clean, including the lavatory.

Nerina Olego

Very delicious food! They have gluten free options!!

Ilan Simha

Very tasty food. Gluten-free pizza is especially delicious. A very pleasant accommodation space. fair prices. Definitely recommended for a late breakfast.

I stayed at La B'om Hostel in a private room between September 16-24, 2024 and then again from September 28-October 3, 2024 after I had completed the Inca Trail. I stayed in two different private rooms (Moche on the first floor and Inca on the second floor) during my stay and they were both great. The rooms had a private bathroom with shower, comfortable double bed with warm blankets for the chilly nights, shelving/hooks/hangers to organize clothes and belongings and a window overlooking the inner courtyard. The water pressure in the showers was decent and there was always hot water (though sometimes you had to let the water run a bit before it would come). I really liked having a private room as a lot of the hiking/cultural tours that I had booked left quite early in the morning and it was important for me that I had a solid sleep with no interruptions. This was a very quiet and small hostel with no loud people at night or parties, which is exactly what I was looking for. The breakfast is included and you are provided with three large crepes with various fillings depending on the day and fresh juice. I had asked whether they offered gluten-free crepes for breakfast and was advised that they did, however, they never seemed to have any available during my stay which was unfortunate. The regular crepes were amazing though and they did have gluten-free crepes at the restaurant upstairs. There was always coca and other teas available throughout the day, as well as, purified water in the lobby. The hostel had a small lounge area next to the reception area with tables and couches and a heater. There was also the inner courtyard with a hammock and chairs/tables for relaxing in the sun during the day. The staff were always helpful and friendly. I appreciated that they booked me a taxi for only 20 soles from the Cusco airport to the hostel (prior to my arrival) and back. The hostel offered fast and reliable Wi-Fi on the property. They were also able to store my luggage in their secure room while I hiked the Inca Trail for 5 days. The location of the hostel in the San Blas area of Cusco was lovely. It is a quiet and charming neighbourhood that felt very safe at all times of the day and night. There are lots of shops nearby, ATMs, laundry facilities, and restaurants and it's a short 7 minute walk to the Plaza de Armas. There is also a creperia restaurant on the second floor of the hostel which is open from 11 am until 10 pm. It was very convenient to eat there when I had returned from a long day tour and didn't feel like walking to a restaurant. They had an extensive menu including gluten free and vegan options.

Stopped in for dinner after our Machupicchu trek and it was a bit of a disappointment. I ordered the Pulpo/octopus and it was the worst I have ever eaten. I took one bite and sent it back - wild because I’ve literally never done that and would feel like a Karen, typically, but to butcher such a sentient beautiful animal and then absolutely destroy it through overcooking is a bit of a tragedy. It was extremely dense, flavorless, and chewy… kind of like chicken made by someone who is terrified of salmonella, so they cook it until it has a rock-like consistency. My replacement meal was decent, but lacking the fantastic flavor palette I was hoping for. My mother enjoyed her meal, though! On the positive end, the mocktails were creative and delicious and the servers were very friendly and accommodating for a Gluten allergy at our table.

Renzo Alberti

Very good coffee, I highly recommend it. The gluten-free lemon pie is good. Nice atmosphere and service

Maarten Valks

Very recommended! We enjoyed the ambiance, the food and the good service. They took very good care of my girlfriend’s gluten allergy! Thanks.

Abigail Ashford

Delicious food and gluten free options

Laurie Hainley

A beautiful cafe that is very accommodating of gluten-free needs. While gluten-free options are not labeled, the staff were so patient with our broken Spanish and double-checked everything to ensure it was safe for us. I'm so grateful for their kindness, and we enjoyed all of the dishes immensely.

Milagros

They no longer have gluten-free options, if you only come to this place to eat gluten free, save yourself the trip. A shame because it is located in a beautiful area and was a place with an option for people who cannot consume gluten.

paola marsano

Rich friendly gluten free healthy food concept.

Sierra Redfern

Such a delicious meal!! I'm gluten free and was presently suprised to see that had lots of gluten free options marked on the menu and even had gluten free soy sauce. Gabriel our waiter was very attentive and gave great service. Some of the best food we've had so far!

Alondra Najera

The food is delicious and the prices are super good. They have dishes and drinks with an artistic touch that will leave you with a great taste of Cusco. They have traditional dishes and options if you are vegetarian or have gluten issues. Highly recommended.

Michael May

I’ve been here 3 times and every time I’ve had the chicken delight sandwich, which does not disappoint. It has a surprisingly good bread for gluten free! Worth it for the views as well!

Torey S

The gluten free nachos were incredible. It was a bit cold, but otherwise a fantastic experience. Very helpful waiters.

Laura Viglioglia

The place is beautifully decorated, the music is very good, and it is very comfortable to be in. We were surprised by the variety of dishes and the possibility of ordering them for vegetarians, vegans, and even celiac patients, which is not common to find in other places. The meals are abundant, and all the flavors are varied and exquisite. In addition, each dish has an outstanding presentation, you can see the dedication that is put into the kitchen. The cocktails are more than excellent. Edwin treated us in a very friendly, helpful, cordial manner and attentive to all the details. Without a doubt, we will return!

Rebecca Jess

Brilliant food and great atmosphere. Allergies present on the menu, clearly highlighting the presence of gluten, milk, nuts and soya. Would highly recommend

Angela Echave

We came to eat with my partner who has celiac disease, Vegan pasta and grilled ceviche, which are gluten-free. He attended us light explaining each dish. We now have a safe place to return to if there are no non-tac options.

Abbey Sykes

Amazing food and amazing service. They even did me a special gluten free version of the chicken nuggets :-) we love this place ❤️

Melisa Sbrocco

The best tacc-free or gluten-free place I ate in in Cusco. They have suitable bread and even the cause is suitable. I would return just to eat more at this place. Price/quality ratio of 10.

Elena Kryvossidis

WOW! Amazing food but especially delicious deserts! Me and my friend visited this market stand unfortunately for us on our last day in Lima! But we tried the pizza, empanada and the tiramisu, carrot cake and a red fruits cheesecake. The cheescake absolutely stole the show, was the best vegan cheesecake I’ve ever had in my eight years of veganism (gone before we took a photo). The staff were lovely too! Definitely visit if you’re looking for vegan (and gluten free) deserts and food in Lima <3

Sara Cecilia Pacheco

Nice place that includes gluten-free options

Mabel Obando

Quiet, pretty and with varied food. It has several spaces, even at the back there is a kind of garden, where there were children playing. My favorites were the green juice smoothie and the oriental salad. If you have dietary restrictions, there are gluten-free, sugar-free and more options. I will return to try their vegan truffles.

Jessica Laleike

100% vegan. Great selection of dishes even though I would appreciate more gluten free options (there are some, however just a few). I had the “Ronda Marina” which is a huge plate with different delicious dishes. I wasn’t able to finish it as it’s a lot of food, I would recommend it for two people 😅 (and I eat a lot). Was very good though. Highly recommended place with a nice little terrace!

lucy beech

Lovely food and a friendly relaxed atmosphere. Luis was great - very informative and accomodating with allergies such as gluten and nuts - even willing to adapt dishes so we could try local dishes. Would 100% recommend!

Heath Milne

Maria and Yurico were delightful during our time at Jill’s. They were friendly and allowed us to practice our Spanish whilst ordering. The coffee was great, some of the best I’ve had in Peru, and the vegetarian tostada was delicious! Definitely a must stop for any vegetarians or vegans, plus they have a number of gluten free options.

Niklas A

Very tasty and fresh Arepas, which is an amazing gluten free Option here. Really enjoyed it and came Back 2 times :)

monica grasseli

We came here based on Google reviews and... our expectations were exceeded! I have celiac disease and the dish we ordered was changed to suit my allergy. Fantastic! What made the experience even better was being served by Jose, who very kindly guided our stay at Hanz. I highly recommend it! PS: We were in Cusco during low season and didn't need to make reservations, so we arrived and sat down.
