Top 50 Gluten-Free Late-Night Spots to Explore in South End, Halifax

Kenna Mack

Delicious food!! Atmosphere was crazy cool and an awesome view of the harbour. Also our server was absolutely awesome. A little expensive but definitely worth the experience. Also they gave me a birthday cake and it was very yummy. Very accommodating for someone in my party’s gluten intolerance as well.

David Robson

Always a great place to grab some food. Awesome Gluten Free options.

Krista Wright

Ate at Krave numerous times when my husband was in the hospital! Delicious food for someone who eats gluten free - love the buns!!!

Scout and Ellie

Amazing food, Becka went out of her way to make it a wonderful experience especially for our daughter with Celiac. She's the best server we've had in many years. Definitely a go to spot!

Patricia Coates

Very good food and friendly staff. Had a vegan burger and gluten free bun.

I went to this restaurant for a Deaf event. One of the servers new sign language and was able to serve the deaf people adequately and charismatically. As a gluten-free person, I had a delicious haddock taco and didn't feel the gluten-free options were any less delicious than the regular options! Prices are high, but fair for the overall experience. Will definitely be returning.

The interior is beautiful, romantic enough, cozy, but the light is too dim for me (but this is my subjective opinion). Location - the restaurant is located in the down town, i.e. in the city center, which, unfortunately, means the absence of its own parking lot and you have to look for it, and it is paid even on weekends. Food - not very many, in fact, menu items if we are talking about the main dishes. There are few gluten-free dishes, which, for example, was a problem for us. We had to order soup and salad because we have restrictions on the types of meat we can eat and therefore, actually, vegetarian soup is all we could order. It was delicious, I have no complaints, but it's still a pity that there is such a limited selection of gluten-free meat dishes. We ordered tea and I liked that the tea cup was warm (despite the fact that it was empty), and the tea was served separately in a teapot). Service - everything here was top notch, the girl who served us was as attentive as possible, she knew the menu and the composition of the dishes well, she could tell us what dishes we could order, taking into account the restrictions we had. But still, I deducted one star. I was out of paper towels. As always, in the restaurant there is a cloth napkin in which the cutlery is wrapped and which we put on our laps when we eat, but I cannot wipe my lips, for example, with that napkin, for this I need paper ones, but they were not on the table and no one offered . This is my humble opinion, it was uncomfortable for me. Well, the shortcomings of the menu that I wrote about above also played a role in the evaluation. And in general, I can recommend this place, we liked it.

Great meal. Gluten free.

Fay Rolfe

On vaycay from Vancouver B.C. doing the walk about at Pier21 and stopped into The BG. Beautiful location, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Huge beverage menu!! As celiac, it's challenging to find some safe eats away from home. I ordered the gf option Lobster Roll & fries and oh my lord.... fantastic 😋 Thanks for being aware of dietary restrictions for some 🥳 If I'm ever back out this way, will definitely come back.

Nestled at the Halifax waterfront amongst historical buildings, the A Mano is a beautiful Italian restaurant that serves traditional fares with great pairings of wines and the usual beers. Service is smooth overall, but we did have a small issue with a gluten-free order, which needed to be rectified. We were a group of 8 and a wide selection of food was ordered. The Schiacciata, Sgabello, Calamari Fritti were good and perfect for a chilly evening. As the main course, Quattro Carni, fresh Halibut with Shrimps, Lasagna, Lamb Shank, Seafood Stew and the Linguini were good. We were too full and ordered the share Torta Per Due cheesecake and were not disappointed . Overall, good restaurant and great vibes for a chilled dinner next to the water.

Have wanted to try this place out forever after hearing about them having Gluten Free options. So glad we did today! Tandoori chicken fries were delicious and the Kashmiri apple fries should be illegal. The flavour and texture are crave worthy. So so good! Can’t wait to come back. Make sure you go check it out!!

Melissa Stephens

Was a super cute place, enjoyed the mussels with a great gluten free bun. Music was wonderful. I will certainly go back again

I really liked the staff were attentive and quick service was provided. Had great meal loved the ramen and sweet edamame beans. They have limited menu but still have gluten free options. Although I find it's bit pricy, I would still visit again.

Best steakhouse in Halifax, number 1 with a bullet. I got the Cigar Tenderloin and the other half had a Coffee Aged Strip, served with a glorious red wine jus both of these steaks absolutely slapped, sides were delicious and plentiful, would order the Mushrooms again but probably skip the mash and sprouts next time in favor of something else. They had a dessert menu but we didn't have it in us, next time! The service was top notch and my dietary needs (Celiac) were taken seriously without making a fuss. I cant wait to come back, I must have an anniversary or something coming up and if not I'll have to invent one.

Kristen Maclean

Just went to Naan n Curry with my girlfriend. The food was tasty, the Naan portions were generous and overall it was a good deal for our money. More importantly, we've had challenges finding good food in HRM because of her dairy allergy. The menu at Naan N curry specifically mentions if the option is gluten free, vegan or dairy free. Very happy with our experience and will be back

Giuliana Ruffolo

They have a separate gluten-free menu, the service was excellent, and the food was delicious. Their vegetarian rolls are just as good as the non veggie, and I find myself craving it regularly since my first visit.

Doug Read

Best gluten-free ribs in the province.

Tim N

Pretty good place. Many board games to choose from. It would be nice to play some new releases too. Food is simple, but would benefit from more variety of shareable snacks (gluten free salty snacks ideally).

Erin VanSlyke

Excellent meal, nice atmosphere, friendly service and gluten free options. We really enjoyed our time here and will come back again.

Charlotte Riewestahl

Artichoke dip

Annette Upward

Great experience at Chop as usual. No issues with requesting gluten free options, steaks were cooked perfect!

Family Cooper

Server was excellent. Very friendly. Gluten free options. Excellent meal. oysters were delicious would definitely recommend. Can’t wait to come back

We are in town for four days and have had poor experiences 2 out of 3 attempts at Tempo. On Friday we had a great experience, the food was tasty, the waitress was great and the service was quick. On Saturday, when I went down for brunch they were closed. After a phone call, I learned that they where closed early due to staffing issues. Today, my wife and I, went down for breakfast. After placing our orders; bagel and cream cheese for her and Eggs Benedict on gluten free toast for me, we received our juice and coffee. Then we waited, and waited. After three or four couples who were seated after us had ordered and gotten their food, we stopped the waitress and asked about our orders. Five minutes later, she walked by and said "It's being taken care of now." She didn't stop to talk to us, and she certainly did not apologize. A few minutes later my wife stopped her a asked to speak to the floor manager. Our waitress replied "I guess that's me". She continued to say that it was taking time to bring the water to a boil to poach the eggs. It was nothing but deflections and avoidance of ownership of the problem. An honest apology would of calmed my wife a great deal. My wife then said she wasn't sure if she to have breakfast any more and the waitress indicated that if we didn't want to stay, it was fine. We chose to leave. In all a very dissatisfactory experience that left my wife in tears back in the hotel room.

I celebrated my birthday tonight with my mom and we both were given a complimentary drink and dessert. Very accommodating to my moms gluten allergy as well. We had a very good Waiter named Ethan and excellent service. Thank you again for the great experience and birthday dinner.

Ruaraidh Butler

Friendly and caring people. For medical reasons, I can't consume gluten. Complicated as I'm vegetarian too. And as much as I love Indian food, I can't have anything too spicy. Our server was wonderfully understanding and concerned to ensure they accommodate my dietary need. I asked for the food to cater to the gentle taste of a 5 year old! And they did just that ... the food was delicious. Although my wife and I live out of Province, we will be back. For folks fortunate enough to live in Halifax and area, ensure to schedule a visit to Twist of India!

Sharon Belanger

Nice place, good music. Gluten-free option. I had a cheesebuger poutine, it was very good! Fries with all the ingredients of a cheeseburger (except the bun) with a cheese sauce. My partner had the Smoked bacon mac and cheese served with toasted buns, delicious.

I have gluten and dairy allergies so it's hard to find restaurants that do a good job cooking a delicious meal without those two staples. The Harbourstone far exceeded my expectations. While other restaurants include gluten-free options, the Harbourstone is the first I've seen in HRM to include both gluten-free options (GFO) and dairy free options (DFO) throughout their menu entire menu. They substituted the dairy with yummy equivalents rather than just taking it out and making the meal plain. Our meal was so good we went back the next day and had lunch. Great Job Harbourstone!

Brandy McIntosh

Great food and atmosphere. Lots of gluten free options. I thoroughly enjoyed the portebello burger.

David Jobe

Awesome Greek salad, and gluten free Donair platter.

Barry Madill

Awesome place to munch. Proper size meals with normal prices. Gluten free options for my kid is huge in my book.

Had a disappointing experience here last night. First, the host was fantastic, helpful on the phone with a last minute reservation, and communicated effectively about when our table would be ready etc. Once the host sat us though, it was another 5-10 minutes before our server greeted us and brought water. From that point on, service was lacking. Food and drinks didn’t take too long, but our water glasses sat empty until we finished our meals and had to request more. The server was attentive to other tables, even walking past us with a full water pitcher and checking in with them, but didn’t glance at us until our plates were empty and stacked. It’s understandable that service is slower on a busy Friday night, but it was jarring to notice the server prioritizing other tables. The music was also quite loud for a sit-down restaurant. The food is really good but the portions are small. Lots of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options, love the layout and decoration. Just disappointing that from past experiences and other reviews, it seems like some staff prioritize certain clientele over others. Hoping this is something that improves in the future!

Nathalie Pedro

Great outdoor eating by the sea. Prices are a bit high but quality is here! The service is perfect and the decor is lovely. There are some great chefs behind the counter and the sushis are just incredible. The chowder by the way is delicious. Many gluten free options! One can have fire on the tables outside, really neat when the evening is chill or just for fun! A must try !

Christina Garnett

Beautiful spot with gluten free and vegan options.

Annabelle Valliant-Fraser

Their cider is fantastic, and their food is also super great! Amazing service, great conversation and extremely helpful when it came to the tables gluten intolerance!!

carlsonjoelson

Great pizza but not the gluten free ones

David Jobe

Great Easter brunch buffet. Lots to eat and tasty as well. Needs more gluten free options, when asked, the chef steered me through it. Special thanks to the gluten free desert he brought out to me later.

Erin & Shawn Thomas

Historic site with great atmosphere and friendly staff. Reasonable price and good quality. Celiac/gluten free options available. Definitely recommend this spot as a must for Halifax.

Jay Gatza-Cormier

I've had food here a couple times, including one of the appetizer boxes and pizzas (both gluten-free and regular). Today I got the paneer tikka pizza and I was NOT disappointed! The paneer is some of the best I've had actually! The pizza definitely has a nice spice to it and was sooooo cheesy even besides the paneer on top! I do wish when I asked what was on it they would have told me about the top layer of cilantro they add because I really don't enjoy cilantro personally, but that really didn't end up ruining my experience I'd say. I brushed it off and I know for next time. I will definitely be going back! The employees were all friendly, helpful, prompt and had great attitudes! Seemed very clean too

Kaylin Dean

I once belonged to the general group of Haligonians that has walked past this place dozens of times without thinking twice. I'm not part of that group anymore, and you shouldn't be either. Just the best pair of folks behind the counter; honest, charming, and know how to make a damn good pizza. Bonus: gluten-free crust available.

Ryan Williams

Chef Dany is a true professional. The spread she was able to put together for our Christmas party of 8 was amazing! The perfect amount of delicious charcuterie and solid options for our gluten free, celiac, vegetarian company. A+++ for this incredible restaurant and catering business !

Kabriel Lilly

Staff was very nice! Dined with a Celiac friend and they were very happy to talk about what can/can't be made gluten free! Great atmosphere and awesome Happy-Hour Oysters!

Natalie Brown

Fresh, delicious and fast! They have amazing gluten free burrito bowls, all the meat is gluten free and the only sauce that isn't GF is the mole. I love it! We go about once a week. Good prices

Jane C

Had the GLUTEN free traditional poutine. (I added that ketchup). It is huge, couldn’t even finish it. It was pretty good and I didn’t react to it, so I was happy. Will probably go back again when back in Halifax.

Kevin Davenport

Alex Sweeney

The staff there are very friendly and accommodating for people who can't eat gluten, and the food was served very promptly. If you like pub-style food, you'll love the Auction House.

I had the lobster roll and it was delicious. The chips could have been better if a dip was served with them. Unfortunately there were no gluten free options other than salad that could be made gF. Very disappointing. The salad had brown bits on several leaves as well as the core in the bowl. Staff were friendly.
