Top 50 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots to Enjoy in Castle Rock

Jason Kittle

Disappointed and not really worth the $$$. I could make gluten free better at home and get more for the same money. $10+ for two items

Delicious pizza. Friendly staff. They have gluten-free crust

Richard Winters

I was misguided by the best reviews in town. The pizza is very average, especially for the high price. Very skinny on ingredients and the crust wasn't great. On a positive note, the gluten free crust was remarkable. I would order both pizzas gluten free next time if I liked them.

Amazing food & a reasonable price! Gluten free options were fantastic. Great atmosphere & caring staff. I think this place will give other restaurants a run for their money!!

Christine Bunch

Went for happy hour and had the best blackberry margaritas. The flatbread is so good, and they offer gluten-free, which is hard to find.

Amanda Lontine

We got the panang curry and pad thai and both were flavorful and delicious! There were plenty of gluten free options and we thought the menu was very reasonably priced for yummy food!

🫥Disappointing Experience Despite Planning Ahead Yesterday, we dined at Great Divide with a group of about twelve people. We had made our reservation more than a week in advance, hoping to ensure a smooth visit. Unfortunately, despite our efforts, the experience was unnecessarily frustrating and fell far short of what I’d expect from an established restaurant. As someone with dietary restrictions, I try to plan ahead to avoid putting staff on the spot. Before our visit, I checked Great Divide’s website and tried calling to confirm gluten-free and dairy-free options. I was assured over the phone that the in-person menu would clearly list allergens and that the waitstaff was experienced and could answer questions easily. However, upon arrival, our tables were not ready, despite the reservation. We had to wait for extra seating to be added after being initially seated—which, as anyone dining with kids knows, is not a small inconvenience. Once we settled in, I asked our server about gluten-free options, since the menu (both online and in-person) offered no allergen details. Her response was, “I don’t know gluten. I’m not a gluten person.” She seemed confused and even slightly annoyed that I was asking, despite the assurances I’d received on the phone. She then had to go speak to the kitchen. Which is fine but that is also what I had asked to do / tried to do several times prior to being there and was brushed off and told that everything would be ready and clear when we arrived. Beyond the dietary confusion, service overall was VERY slow. It took nearly 40 minutes just to receive drinks, and even longer for some who ordered simple items like lemonade. Meanwhile, no manager ever came by to check on us or address the clear issues, despite being made aware that our group was agitated. When the food finally arrived, my meal (the half bird) was disappointingly underseasoned and completely lacking flavor. I truly believe Great Divide could do better. My advice to management: • Support your staff so they’re equipped to handle large parties confidently, especially regarding dietary questions. • Consider assigning a second server for big groups to reduce stress and long wait times. • Provide clearer allergen information on your menu to avoid confusion and help guests with food sensitivities feel safe and welcome. • Have management check in proactively when significant delays or issues arise. We were looking forward to a pleasant outing, and it’s unfortunate that a situation that could have been easily managed became so stressful. I hope Great Divide takes this feedback to heart and improves both their service and guest experience. TL;DR: large group tables not ready despite a reservation, extremely slow service, staff unprepared for group size and food allergy questions even though I called ahead, no manager checked in even after waiting over 30 min for drinks and food was bland. A frustrating experience that should have been avoidable.

The food here was amazing, service was outstanding! They were able to accommodate to our dietary needs, one person is gluten-free the other dairy free. Definitely a popular place, but totally worth the wait. We had a party of 8, estimated wait time of an hour. We were sat in about 45-50 minutes. Highly recommend B&B Cafe!

Stephanie Jacobs

We love Crave Real Burgers and miss the Colorado Springs location since it has closed. They offer fantastic gluten free buns for their hamburgers. My only wish is that they could make gluten free french fries in their own fryer. However, this is a great dining experience.

Tina P

This place was so good!! The service was great and the food was delicious. My favorite was the momo dumplings, so good! There is also a wide variety of options, vegan, gluten free, etc. We sat on the patio and it was a vibe, with the lights, so cozy!!

Katina Gaddie

We get pizza every week and have tried all of the places-Granelli’s remains my favorite (even in the gluten free category!) consistently great and lovely customer service too!

Kate Smith

OMG the best HOMEMADE gluten-free pasta I've ever had. Love this place and it's so much fun!

Adam Thompson

Chicken Tikka Masala very filling. Tandoori wings were good. Nice gluten free options.

Justin Kodiak

Usually this a 5 but I am gluten free and they don't make the gluten free items in the afternoon separately and don't care about cross contamination at this location. Really unfortunate.

Nicole Ron

We're new to the area and on the hunt for great sushi. We definitely found it with Sawara! The sushi is fresh, they have great options and even a dedicated gluten free menu. Our daughter loved the kids meal and the staff was incredibly friendly. See you tomorrow! <3

Hippie Mommie7

I love going here. They have homemade gluten free pasta and gluten free Alfredo sauce, which is tough to find. The food isn’t fancy, but it’s solid and a bit old school in a positive way. The service is great and if you bring kids they have coloring books, which is great for “bored” children. My kids always get the pepperoni pizza. I forgot to take a pic of my food as I dug in right away.

Jonah Hunt

Great food, owner, and staff, very accommodating. Many gluten free options.

Genevieve Chaffee

Really great tacos and fun place to eat. Margaritas are also good. Love all the TV's. Wish your chips were gluten free but glad you have so many other gluten free options. My 4 year old also loves the tacos.

Desta Lawrence

Great salads everytime! Also great gluten-free options available.

Carl Smittle

Excellent gluten free options. Very nice atmosphere. Excellent service. We love the specials and they let us swap it out for the gluten free option.

Marlee Ruge

Andy always does a great job! Food is awesome and there are a lot of gluten free options

This was a tough one because I was really looking forward to a seafood Benedict. We drove up from the north part of the springs on Sunday because the reviews and the place looked pretty fantastic. In a nutshell, my wife got the king crab Benedict, and I got the crab cake Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was fantastic. Although, all our eggs were basically hard boiled. I love eggs Benedict and everybody knows the eggs need to be a runny center. When you drop 30 bucks a plate, you expect the eggs to be right. I’m sure I could’ve said something, but when your food comes out altogether and ready, the last thing you wanna do is return your plate because the eggs are wrong. I was ready to eat. I feel that’s one aspect of an eggs Benedict You just have to get right. A couple other small things, When we ordered, we let the server know my wife was gluten-free. A few minutes after the food arrived, the server came back and said that the potatoes are not gluten-free. She offered to swap out with seasonal fruit, which was just fine. When we got our bill, we were charged four dollars for the potatoes that my wife couldn’t eat. They took it off, but just make sure and look at your bill. I was able to eat the potatoes and I’ll have to say they were soft. When I say soft, it’s like they had been sitting in a warming tray on a buffet, and I scooped it out and put it on my plate. I love breakfast potatoes and I only ate a few bites. Due to my wife having the gluten allergy, I’ve sampled many many types of gluten-free breads, and English muffins. What they served my wife’s eggs Benedict on was not a gluten-free English muffin. It tasted more like gluten-free pancakes. It was even a touch sweet. Overall, the service was good and the atmosphere really nice but when you’re paying $30 for eggs, Benedict and all the things happened above, it’s challenging to want to return.

Emily was great. The kids loved the chicken strips, and I thought that the gluten-free buns was delicious. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try.

christopher leach

One of the best gluten free pizzas I've ever had. Really good.

K C

They are always accommodating. I meet friends there I usually haven't seen for a long time. They allow us to sit and talk. I do tip well and I don't stay if they ever need the booth. Food is good. They have gluten free and will work with you for eating how you need to.

Kent P.

Love the burgers and fries here. Gluten free bun is great.

So this place is cute, has a great atmosphere and the food looks amazing, but I’m a Celiac so I have to be gluten free which is why I came here; because they said they could do gluten free, so that’s what I’m rating them on. If you’re not gluten free, disregard, but if you are gluten free, keep reading. I would NOT eat here if you’re a Celiac! (Or intolerant) They are not cautious enough to be safe at all! I got VERY lucky, but only by happenstance. (I’ll explain below) so if you’re not gluten free by choice, (ie. Celiac or intolerant) I would NOT trust this place! So there is no gluten free on the menu but they came up on google as having options and I verified at the door they could do it before letting them seat me. My waitress talked to the kitchen said they gave me 4 options I could choose that would be gluten free if they left off the plantains. So I ordered one of those and explained I was a Celiac and how important cross contamination was. When the dish came out they’d forgotten to leave off the plantains so she had to take it back and explain (again) how I can’t have anything touching gluten. Only then did they inform her that whole dish (not just the plantains) are contaminated so if I can’t eat anything touching gluten I could only do these two (other) dishes. Neither of which was one of the ones they started with telling me I could have. The wait staff and manager was apologetic, but clearly their kitchen does not care enough to support them, which means they can’t handle it. I only went ahead and ate because I was starving! And nothing else around was open. This was already the third place we tried. Very fortunately (and possibly miraculously) the new dish didn’t get me sick. It was a very simple dish of chicken with onions, white rice and black beans, and it was good, but unfortunately I will never eat here again because I can’t trust it to be safe.

Kris

Pricey but good quality food. Lots of gluten free options including dessert.

I usually don’t like to write negative reviews, and when this restaurant was on Wilcox, I would have. The new location has a new ownership team, and it shows in the best way! The service is phenomenal, the presentation is beautiful, and the food is crave-worthy. I could probably eat the food every day it’s so good. We went for lunch and had fresh lemonade, and chicken shawarmas, and a gyro plate. I told our server I couldn’t eat gluten and she brought out sliced cucumber instead of pita. The hummus was fresh and the tahini they used was perfect! The toum that came with my dish was the best I’ve ever had, and I wanted to lick the container clean. We’ll definitely go back, and I’m so happy we took a risk and tried it again. It’s a completely different restaurant.

Red Robin has to be one of the best gluten friendly burger places in my opinion. They cater to your needs and have a great GF selection! I never worry if I will have a flare up and can eat my meal with a peace of mind.

Dana Valentine

I made a catering order at this location, and it was a great experience overall. I was able to do the whole order online and it was all ready, on time, and with help loading it into my truck. We were thoughtfully greeted and offered any assistance possible. I would recommend this for catering any event, as there were many options to choose from, with breakfast options available as well. They have gluten free buns and other options for any dietary restrictions.

Kinch Reindl

New favorite place to grab a burger with gluten free bun, fries and smash sauce.

Jennifer Wurtz

I'm glad they had gluten free options,

Jen F

I have gone in twice to this location. Both times I was given the riot act about being gluten free and I was told I would get glutened, emphatically. Completely unwelcoming. I eat at other Snarf's weekly as a gf person and have never bwen treated this way, nor gotten ill. Why is this location not like the others?

Nick Zimmerman

Just attempted to eat here but wasn't able to. Let them know at the start of my order i am dairy free and gluten free due to severe allergy. I ordered a giant hot honey chicken sandwich. Asked them to clean the grill to limit cross contamination. They refused and out the meat right down on top of older cooked food. They then proceeded to cut the pepperoni with a sliver that just finished cutting cheese. I asked if they could clean the slicer so i don't get sick and again if they can please clean the grill as i cant eat that meat. They did clean the slicer but not the grill. Told them just cancel it as I don't want to go to the hospital today. Me and my wife were the only customer at the time. And a response of "you want us to do all that for you" is absolutely unacceptable. Asked for owners card and manager said apologized and told me they can remake it and clean the grill when I said I didn't want to go to the hospital today. I shouldn't have to stress allergic reactions and a hospital visit to get a sandwich that wont make me sick. It takes a minute to clean these items i work in a kitchen.

Clean great takeout! The owner is a really nice guy and the gluten free pizza is delicious! Very clean store and they are fast!

Amber Day

This place is just great all-around. Super friendly staff, gluten-friendly menu, delicious food, fun atmosphere. They also seem to treat their employees very well based on my sister's experience working here. Support this local, yummy treasure!

Loni Steffen

Great place. Great gluten free options. Be nice if they made they're green chili w corn starch instead of flour.

Jonathan McCormick

No pho expert here but really loved this place. Celiac friendly.

I was in with the family and the atmosphere is great. The salmon? Not so much. I got the pan seared salmon as I wanted a healthier option. I'm sure there are those who like it, but I have to say it was awful! I wasted $40 on a meal I had to force myself to get down and left most of on the plate. They really need to let people know, especially people who are diabetic or have health issues that although it's a gluten free option, it's incredibly sweet and covered in it, including what little spinach I got and the three tomato slices. It was wilted and covered in the sweet sauce. The fried shoe string potatoes were thinner than bean sprouts and so dry they were inedible. I've tried other dishes there, and they were fine but they really need to let people know about this one. Then get hit with $3 for an iced tea, and another $3 for a lukewarm coffee with not even so much as a refill. In hindsight, I should have sent it all back and ordered the house salad and a glass of water, but I stuck it out. I won't even get into the issues we had with them getting our orders out, what they forgot, and the huge fan blowing in our faces that we ended up having to shut off because the wait staff that opened patio seating couldn't be bothered to do it. Ya, I've never seen anybody mess up salmon, but I'm not going back.

Absolutely amazing dining experience in Castle Rock !!! My husband had the fish which was so good that he called the manager over to tell him ! I had the gluten free pasta primavera which was one of the best dishes I’ve had anywhere! I’ve never left a review in my life but Tribe deserves to be my first - so thrilled it’s close to home in Castle Pines ! We look forward to many more date nights here :)

Amber Patrick

Ordered a pick up order on the app. Promised to pick up at 6:30. I was there by 6:30 and took them 20 min after the promised time to get my food. Finally when I got home every meal was made incorrectly. Which concerns me cause my daughter has celiac disease and throws up if she has any gluten whatsoever.

Gary Bennett

THE ONE THING THIS PLACE IS MISSING IS AN ADULT!!! I came in to grab a picnic dinner (5:30)with my family for dinner and ended up listening to thee teenagers gossiping instead of working. Everyone in the restaurant was loosing patience because only one employee was gossiping and making food part time and the other two employees were just wondering around the chatting from the lobby. Then to top it off one of them goes behind the counter and we hope she is helping to get orders out but instead she is making her own food. I only no this because i decided to stand at the counter to apply some death stare tactics only to see the employee blowing on her sandwich as it was still on the toaster belt(gross). I asked if that was ours then she said it was hers. 🙄. Received two gluten free sandwiches which had no tags or markings stating GF. Get to the picnic and no napkins and forgot our brownie. It just felt like me as a customer was an afterthought.

Timothy Reeves

My wife has a real gluten allergy (Celiac disease), although the waitress tried to accommodate she wasn’t knowledgeable on celiac (gluten free) dietary restrictions, my wife ended up with what looked like a 1/4lb cup of dog food and some greenery. She was very embarrassed as everyone else in her group ate like kings and all she got was dog kibble. Very sad.

We've eaten at Dickey's many times, and it's always a pleasant experience. The food is good and fast. They have gluten-free options available.
