Top 42 Gluten-Free Lunch Spots to Delight in West Ashley, Charleston

Nautia Symonne

One of the few, if not only gluten free and vegan restaurants in the area. I will definitely be back. My pesto sandwich was awesome. The cookies are a hit too 🙌🏿

The house was amazing! And I got two gluten free which were so so good, the Maui and the Shiitake, out of all 3 I think the Holy Shiitake was a must try especially for gluten free vegetarian options, the garlic aioli and truffle was so delicious.

Crystal Coney

Amazing Gluten Free pancakes! Always pop in when I'm in town! 🫶🏽

Erin Grant

Service was friendly and quick, espresso tasted great - not too burnt - and the gluten free waffle was delicious! The interior left a little to be desired, but overall it was a good little shop.

Sylvia Sheridan

Not bad for a quick take-home pizza!! You can also dine there! Gluten-free option as well which is a big plus for me! I love that you can add your own toppings and it doesn't change the price!!! ♥️

Ms. Rose’s Fine Food is a treat in Charleston! The food was absolutely delicious—highly recommend the avocado burger with the gluten-free bun, which was sturdy, flavorful, and a perfect match. The meatloaf with mashed potatoes and green beans was another standout. Don’t leave without trying the brisket fries—mouthwatering! The restaurant is spacious, the staff is warm and welcoming, and our waitress Raven gave top-notch service with great recommendations for us first-timers. We’ll definitely be back!

We stopped by for a quick lunch. The food was really good! They have a gluten-free menu with multiple options. Unfortunately, they do not have gluten-free bread or rolls, so no sandwiches, but everything else was great.

Megan Lassen

Great flavor, large portions, and safe for celiac and dairy allergies!! I'd eat there often if I lived in the area!

Heather Brown

Always a fabulous meal. Lots of gluten free options, and they’re clearly marked on the menu. The dishes are continually changing, and I love that they update the menu for the day on their website by noon. It’s a very homey and relaxed atmosphere. It’s small enough that you don’t feel crowded and you don’t have to yell to the others at the table to converse. We’ve been several times, and will definitely continue to go.

Meg Manley

Fabulous meal, with lots of choices for everyone in the family - this included a very picky eater and someone with celiac (great burgers on GF buns!)

Claire Felczak

Amazzzing! And they also have GF options and my Celiac kiddo didn’t get sick!

Oliver Michels

Great food and service. One of the tastiest gluten-free pizzas I have ever had.

Karen Marshall (Kkm)

Delicious Alfredo sauce on gluten free pasta.

Adam Fisher

Great food, quick service, good atmosphere. They have a nice gluten free menu.

Jewel Mims

Everything was very good . Do need more gluten free

Ashly Dennis

East Bay Deli is one of the best sandwich shops in the area. They have a lot of options for someone gluten free. My children are very picky and they love eating here. I also live the atmosphere and decor. It makes for an interesting visit here. They also have outdoor seating which is nice. Their parking lot is big enough to accommodate their business

Jen Balt

I love Boxcar Betty's. I get grilled chicken on lettuce with bacon jam and the regular fries are cooked in a dedicated fryer!

Lexi Adamczyk

So many gluten free options and the best tacos in the Charleston area!

Matthew Blalock

Fantastic food. Great flavors. Plenty of choices of meat, gluten free options, and vegetarian options. Had the crab Rangoon and they were freshly made. Sushi was fresh and tasted great.

Amber Easterling

They mark GF items on their menu, but not all are celiac safe. Their chips and fries are cooked in the same fryer as the breaded onion rings, so are not safe if you have celiac, but may be ok if you’re gluten intolerant. Most tacos can be made GF by substituting corn tortillas. And their birria tacos can be made without being fried or they can pan fry them if you ask. Burritos can be made into bowls. I honestly had an amazing lunch here and would come back. Just sad I couldn’t have their chips and salsa.

Jordyn Gardner

This place was a last minute lunch choice and I’m so glad I stopped in! The gluten free bread option is full sized slices and the sandwich’s are so good! The staff was friendly and happy to give me the gluten free menu. The hibiscus tea is 10/10 and I highly recommend Jason’s Deli!

Sean Doherty

We had a great time! Meat was super tender, fall off the bone. Also our son is gluten and dairy free and they were very accommodating.

Paris King

Delicious, affordable, and always fresh ingredients! Lots of vegan, gluten free and vegetarian options.

Moe

“Big salad” is a must to try. I was obsessed with their green olives on salad. For pizza I ordered mushroom with added bacon. Tasted so good. Next time I would ask them to do gluten free crust maybe which is thinner. I love thin crust. The only downfall of the pizza was excessive amount of grease which I think came from bacon and caramelized onion. Other than that, it was just perfect. Definitely try your own favorite pizza. You will love it.

Connie Ellis

I wish I had discovered this place earlier. The views are incredible and the food is delicious. I tried the Ribs and they were the best I've ever had. They have a great selection of gluten-free options as well. Thank you to the chefs for an outstanding experience!

Kelsey M

The food was fresh, delicious, and there were great healthy options for vegetarians, vegans, and those with gluten sensitivities. The prices were great as well. The only complaints to be had were that it seemed a little small and cramped (though really not that bad) and that the frozen margaritas weren't really frozen margaritas...more like a margarita on the rocks with some ice slush swirled in. Still good, just not your typical frozen marg!

Jakob Moody

Best place for gluten free pizza

Lydia Poole

THANK YOU! it’s such a blessing to eat somewhere where they CARE about your gluten free need (due to allergy). so careful to make my sandwich so that it doesn’t make me sick! the food is great, staff is better!

Julie Ratchford

Chick Fil A got GLUTEN FREE BUNS, HUN!

Kathryn Aiken

The selection is incredible! I can customize them if I want to make changes, and everything is gluten free.

Finally tried this for lunch . The atmosphere is amazing. Very cute and welcoming. Walked in and was greeted cheerfully by the bartender who was so friendly and helpful. I have celiac disease and the lunch menu doesn’t offer a ton of options, however the salad I chose was delicious. The highlight for me were the macrons. Most of the flavors are gluten free which the bartender took the time to show me which ones were and were not. They were phenomenal. I am definitely going back for dinner soon!

This has to be the worst experience I have had in Charleston and we eat out A LOT. I honestly rarely write reviews but this has really stuck with me and I don’t want someone else to waste their money like we did. This place is close to home and we wanted to grab something quick. It was also a Monday and a lot of places are closed, which is how/why we wound up deciding to try No Bull. First of all, the service was beyond terrible. I asked how the chicken fingers were, hoping to get some feedback to help me decide what to order and her response was “I don’t know, I’m gluten free and never tried them”. I was in the service industry for yearssss, so I was hoping she could at least let me know if they’re popular or if people tend to like them. Second, my boyfriend asked if he could change something on his burger (which was an easy change), and she said, “I’m not sure, I’ll ask”. She never got back to us about it, and when we got home to eat it, the change was never made. Lastly in regards to the service, after we gave her our card to close out, she came back and said that she closed out our tab on someone else’s card that had already left and asked if we would mind paying their tab so that she could close it out. Meanwhile, she didn’t give us an itemized receipt, and we definitely wound up paying a more expensive tab than we would have if it was our own tab. It was so odd. By the way, she literally only had 2 tables the whole time we were there. Us, and the other table we paid for. At that point, we just wanted to leave. Now for the food. We eat out at least 5 nights a week, and this was the worst food I’ve had yet in Charleston. The chicken fingers were quite literally flavorless and all of the breading was falling off. The fries were the worst fries I have ever had and we even tried putting them in our air fryer to make them better. Didn’t work. My boyfriend, who will even eat McDonald’s, couldn’t even finish his burger and wound up heating up leftovers we had in our fridge. Needless to say, we won’t be going back and I’m just all around frustrated by the whole experience.

Bella was very helpful working with my order due to a gluten allergy. She could not have been nicer. 😁

Jillian Shaw

Wonderful experience tonight for my daughter's birthday. They were more then accommodating for our large group. Delicious food, the crab legs were Fantastic. Attentive service with friendly servers. Overall very happy with our visit and we will definitely be back! Thank you. Gluten free options available. They use separate pot to steam the crab legs and shrimp.

Bernard McFadden

My Favorite Pizza in West Ashley. I love their on live ordering system. Ingredients are first quality. They have the best gluten free option in Charleston.

Laura Horowitz

The staff here is amazing. They want you to have the best experience possible. If you are gluten free just tell the staff and they will make it easy for you. The quality of the sushi is fresh. I will say I was disappointed that for sashimi you have to pay $0.75 per piece. The Nigiri pieces were very small fish to rice ratio (besides the egg) so that was not worth it at all. But there were plenty of roll options to choose from which was exciting and they had amazing egg drop soup. Be prepared for a pretty long wait for each order you have. But that is pretty typical. Overall, it was a very nice experience.

Sarah Hunter

I don't think I was prepared for how amazing this would be. The woman who served us and made my drink was super nice and welcoming. And I had the lavender bees knees drink. Oh my actual god, it was amazing. I've had lavender based drinks before but this? Blew them all out of the water! The other awesome thing was, I can’t have gluten (that's the not awesome part) and the wonderful and talented chef turned one of the sandwiches into a salad instead to help accomidate me. It was perfectly cooked chicken with bre, apples and bacon 🥓 on a bed of romaine. So freaking good! I travel for work and I go to many restaurants all over the south, my main perk at the end of the day is to find local fancy restaurants to try. This one is right up at the top! The place is clean, friendly, and well worth the trip. I highly recommend coming.

Cyndi Lynn

We weren't sure what to expect, but the space was big enough to not feel crowded and we were seated right away despite being pretty full. The menu is huge and has gluten-friendly (for obvious reasons, they can't ensure gluten-free, but my dietary restrictions aren't that strict) items clearly marked, plus a separate section for vegetarian options. Lindsey did a great job taking care of us and everyone was friendly. We will definitely be repeat customers.
