Top 28 Gluten-Free Spots Open Late to Explore in Raleigh

Dan Sheehan

This is a great spot for food allergies. My wife had a fried chicken sandwich which was gluten free and she was in heaven. I had their signature black bean burger and the jalapeno jam was very tasty.

So I have autoimmune disease called Celiac Disease and that means gluten and me do not get along at all. This place has great gluten free reviews and was super excited coming here. Well now I am about ready to lose my mind. I asked my usual questions concerning gluten free items and preparations for their food/drinks. I ordered a CIDER and got served a BEER without hesitation. This is actually absurd. When somebody asks you about gluten free items and safety precautions and then immediately within 2 minutes get served a gluten containing item, it’s just actually ridiculous. The server was apologetic and kind but not knowing the difference between beer and cider is disheartening.

Hands down my favorite place for gluten free pizza! They are very accommodating to gluten free customers. Not only do they have gluten free pizza crust but they also have vegan cheese 😍 They have specific pizzas that can be prepared certified gluten free as shown on the menu. Some ingredients vary by location so be sure to double check. Sometimes I venture out and build my own pizza but I always verify which ingredients are safe. They also have individually wrapped gluten free brownies for dessert!

Bethany Bishop

Celiac friendly. The staff was knowledgeable about cross contamination and were able to highlight everything on the menu that I could eat. Delicious food and good atmosphere.

Michele Simpkins

The pizza was OK once warmed in microwave. The gluten free crust was good but the regular pizza crust was tough. Maybe better if hot. Story time! We are L9ngview Gardens Franks Pizza Fans when you want a good NY style slice. We saw the reviews for Oakwood Pizza Box and decided to try both a cheese pizza and a gluten-free option. Pizzas were ordered online for pick up at 6pm, notifiied ready at 7:15pm. Arrived at 7:10 pizza not even in oven, waited 40 minutes to receive a room temperature pizza. Really not worth the hype. Drive 5 minutes to Longview Gardens, just saying.

Service and food were great! My only disappointment is that HQ is changing their menu and taking several items off including one of my favorite gluten free foods…street noodles.

Dhruti Dave

This was the best experience for burgers fot anyone with gluten free preferences.

Renee Urban

Yikes. Don’t even know where to start. Long story short - don’t come here. We waited over an hour and a half for our food and after that we walked out. Never typically leave reviews for restaurants but this was an exception because it was so bad. I mean the worst restaurant experience I’ve ever had. We kept getting different excuses from the waiter and the manager. At one point it was that “gluten free pizza takes longer” (which has never been a hold up in the past at Mellow), another time it was “the kitchen made your orders wrong,” and the third time it was “the kitchen lost your ticket and your order hasn’t been made.” After over an hour and a half of waiting and the server asking us our order again and getting the order wrong on the ticket, we decided to leave. Manager and waiter never seemed to care that we had been waiting over an hour and a half, there was no sympathy or apologies, and they were rude. Exceptionally bad customer service. Other tables were waiting for their food and the food pick up section had a large amount of people waiting a long time too. So don’t count on pick up being timely either. Understand delays can happen because of staff shortage and busy hours, but the restaurant was half empty and tons of servers standing around. None of our group will be coming back. Highly recommend you don’t go here or if you really want Mellow Mushroom to visit the Cary or Durham location.

I love popping in to Centro for lunch. Great, quick service, and reliably awesome food. The flautas and tacos are my favorites - and they even have a gluten free fried chicken taco which is so so good!

Susan Rodriguez

I’m a vegetarian, and the main menu has almost no meat-free dishes—but Winston’s actually is vegetarian friendly as long as you say something to the waiter. They have a complete alternative menu available: the front lists vegetarian and vegan dishes, and the back has gluten-free dishes. I can’t speak to the gluten-free options, but the vegan and vegetarian choices are excellent!

Randy Earl

This was my first visit to Bad Daddy's. I have Celiac disease, so gluten free options are extremely important to me, and it's a real treat for me to have a proper burger-in-a-bun rather than a lettuce wrap, even if it is a GF bun (they tend to fall apart without gluten to hold them together; no fault of the restaurant). My burger was delicious; I'll definitely come back when I need a burger fix. However, my review is mixed because I found the ambience lacking - the music was loud and of what I considered to be an obnoxious selection (personal taste, I know, but hey, it's my review). Also my menu was dirty, which was a real turn-off. A few customer-focused tweaks and it could be a five-star experience for me, but currently it's not.

Lauren Strickland

Amazing service with Daniel, he was very attentive, fast, and friendly. Great food as always, cooked well and not a long wait. Great options for gluten free, both mains and sides.

Lennon Cabral

Great pizza and beer on tap. Reasonably priced and has a cozy vintage vibe in the dining room. Unlike many pizza places, they will make any menu item gluten-free. My partner is GF and she loved both pizzas she’s tried to far! We’ll definitely be back.

Kylie Oliver

They have GF buns, as well as a dedicated fryer. The staff is so friendly and informative and the food is absolutely delicious!

Sara E Stewart; INHC, EOLD, ORDM

Love Brixx. Since my discovery in 2023, I've been 6 times when I've been around the Raleigh area. I have Celiac, and they have 2 types or GF crust. I have not had a problem. The servers are well educated and helpful in ordering. The price is a lot for the size, and until there is a big shake up in the restaurant industry, as a gluten-free diner, we know we pay extra to stay safe. The wings go well with the pizza, too.

Karen Gonzalez

Brunch is LEGIT, and very reasonable on the price index , Dinner on the other hand is more fine dining. However it worth it, especially those with dietary restriction like vegetarian or Gluten free

Angela Moretto

I am gluten free and the server marked which ones I would not be able to eat , which was only three. The food all tasted good however it was never hot. Everything was luke warm to almost cold. The atmosphere was trendy and loud. We had to raise our voices to hear each other. Between the two of us, we ordered 6 small plates and it was just enough. The service was on the slow side but overall we had a wonderful night.

Fred Lybrand

Nice restaurant, lackluster meats. Pork was dry and tastes of liquid smoke. Ribs were slathered in sauce. Got a combo with 2 tiny slices of brisket that were dry despite being dunked in sauce. Gluten free items are labeled - but there is fryer cross contamination for potato skins and wings. Servers are nice, vibe is good, crowd is hopping. Food? Not worth it.

Dani Dire

Hands down one of the best gluten free buns! Anytime I’m craving a burger, this is where we go. Most of the time when I ask for the gluten free bun they ask immediately if it’s an allergy before I can even say it. I’m celiac but saying it’s an allergy is usually easier. They do NOT have a dedicated fryer so stay away from the fries and tater tots unfortunately.

Micah Hoover

Fantastic service. Food was top notch with a lot of gluten free options. We go a lot.

Pamela Campbell

I love the gluten-free options!

Rebeca Palomo

Vegan, lactose free, and gluten-free menu: ask for it Overall, above average; could use some improvement ( seating is a bit tight ( we can hear the full conversation sometimes) ) Rebeca

If you’re on the hunt for the ultimate pizza experience, look no further than V Pizza in Brier Creek, Raleigh, NC! This place is a slice of heaven that has taken my taste buds on a thrilling ride, and I can’t recommend it highly enough! Let’s start with the pizza. Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? Tastes like it was made with love in a secret Italian kitchen. Each bite is a celebration of flavor that had me dancing on the table. And for gluten-free friends, fear not! They’ve got gluten-free options that are so good, you might find yourself questioning your commitment to gluten altogether! V Pizza has this cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring you have everything you need to enjoy your meal. It’s the kind of place where you can kick back, let your hair down, and indulge in some serious pizza bliss. But wait! The adventure doesn’t end with the pizza. Right next door is Flask, the cocktail lounge that’s basically the cherry on top of this pizza sundae. After savoring every cheesy bite, I strolled over to Flask, and let me tell you, it’s like stepping into a chic speakeasy! The cocktail menu is impressive, with inventive drinks that are as delicious as they are stunning. Every drink is rich, flavorful, and sophisticated. The bartenders are true mixologists who pour their heart and soul into every drink. The best part? You can order from Flask and enjoy your cocktails right at V Pizza! Or vice versa! So, if you’re feeling fancy, you can sip on a delightful cocktail while devouring your pizza. Talk about a winning combination! In conclusion, V Pizza in Brier Creek is an absolute must-visit for anyone in the Raleigh area. With amazing pizza, a fabulous cocktail lounge next door, and a vibe that makes you feel like family, it’s the perfect spot for date nights, family outings, or just treating yourself. I can’t wait to go back for more pizza and cocktails! 🍕🍹✨

This place is delicious! Safe gluten free options and sweet, hospitable staff! Ravi treated us to Masala Chai tea after our meal, on the house. By the consumer demographic, you know the food is authentic ;-) one entree was plenty for two to split, and the missi roti was GF naan!

Olivia Obeng

This place really is great! It's nice that it can fit a party that's big or small. There's even a long table inside that can genuinely fit about 16ish people, I didn't count exactly but was really impressed with it. The food was also great- I loved all the Dim Sum and the non-alcoholic drinks. They have a lot of gluten free options also, which is super nice!

Chuck Farruggia

The food and service were AWESOME!!! My wife has a gluten allergy and they were great in helping her pick food she colud eat!!! Thank you so much!!!

Julia Summers

Elizabeth Fieno

Entrees are giant and the lettuce chicken wraps are the best thing on the menu. Super gluten free friendly

Gillian McCrea

Why can’t you take gluten allergies seriously? One time I get told that if I say no toppings on fries, then it’s gluten free. Another time I get told that none of the sides are gluten free. You will take nut allergies seriously, but not gluten. This is the difference between me being bedridden for anywhere from a week to a month+….

I’ve been back twice and had the Buffalo cauliflower and gluten free pizza. The cauliflower is great and the GF pizza is delicious. I suspect the regular crust pizza is better but if you’re trying to reduce your wheat flour intake and want some pizza, this GF pizza will scratch that itch. My original review is below… Let me clear, I’m not a beer drinker. If I drink beer I prefer a very hoppy, dank, bitter IPA. I have not had one like that from Trophy but I’ve not been looking either. I did come in to try the Detroit style pizza (only available on Monday and Tuesday). I lived in Dearborn, MI for 4 years, 1 mile from Detroit and Detroit pizza was Buddy’s Pizza. The crust was basically crispy focaccia bread with cheese and sauce built around the edges that gets a crispy burn and gives Detroit pizza its signature style. I love Buddy’s Pizza. There are only a couple East Coast pizzas I like better than Buddy’s so Buddy’s is a top 5 all time favorite pizza for me. Trophy’s Detroit style pizza tastes like Buddy’s. I mean it totally scratches the itch I sometimes get when craving Buddy’s pizza. Mmmmmm. Service was great. Meagan was attentive and helpful. We made reservations and were seated immediately at a table in the AC. If you love Detroit style pizza, this is destination dining in the Carolinas. Finally, the cocktails were good too. Old fashioned with a solid well and my wife had a house gin cocktail she let me sip that was lovely.

Joseph B

Decent place to eat, a good number of options, and they have gluten free options.

Amy R

I have always loved this place they meet gluten and vegetarian digestions. Their menu is short yet diverse and they change it on a regular basis. The quality of food is good. However, the portions can be on the smaller side, but is plenty enough for me not likely to have any to take home

Leslie Fox

As a single diner, service is often lacking. I had fantastic service today. Tea glass always full, etc. I really appreciated it. Would recommend cooking the gluten free pasta al dente. It was a bit too soft. But I appreciate that you have it available.

Julia

I love Heirloom and their gluten free mochi donuts

Floating On

Got their unique pork burger with the candied bacon and blueberry ketchup on a gluten free bun. It was absolute perfection and a great size. Gf bun was also good. Not the Udi brand that falls apart. Gf crème brûlée Cheesecake was also good. Thank you!

Dave Kass

Try the Lemon Pepper Wings you won’t be disappointed! Amazing Salads like No Other Italian Restaurant. Chicago Style Pizza, Super Thin Crust Pizza, Gluten Free Pizza all terrific! Sandwiches, Waffle Fries; Outstanding Baked Dishes, Great Drinks! Service professionals are exactly that professional and SINCERE in every way! Family owned Business and you can tell as they CARE! My wife and Family will continue to be great customers weekly.

Danica Jackson

Formerly Wild Cook; they no longer have gluten free Naan and the recipes are slightly different but still excellent!

József Darabánt

This place is simply awesome, the burger was Great, and they offer gluten free buns to them. Definitely will return for another one!

Poet Satyr

The food was amazing. Staff was super helpful in suggesting dairy/gluten free alternatives. At bowstring, you'll wait for your food but oh my god was it worth it!

Heather Little

Manhattan always provides the best customer service! We ordered multiple pizzas last night, including one gluten free, and when we got home we realized it had a regular crust. I called back and the manager apologized, made a new gf one and offered to drive it to our house himself. Everyone there is always so polite. And the food is delicious. Highly recommend!

Sally Nickerson

Great service staff. Food was good. Gluten free menu.

Jessica Lilly

The food was delicious and so were the cocktails. They even have some gluten free options. The only downfall was our service was not great as well as our phones would not load the menu.

Emily Giglio

Awesome time! Music bingo is so fun and the food was great!! They even had gluten free buns! Molly is a wonderful server. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Sam Hebda

Omg. So incredibly tasty!! Super friendly staff and great location on Hillsborough Street! I had never had this kind of delicacy and they had a gluten-free option! I was so happy and even got a free one for signing up to their email list. Highly recommend checking it out! They have nice bathrooms and good seating as well 😉

Shaun Provost

The front of house staff were very friendly but unfortunately there were hardly any gluten free options. The fryer (and all apps except one) were cross contaminated, and few entrees were exclusively gluten free even with modifications. Ended up with a burger (which was delicious), but no fries etc.

Nick Leghorn

Delicious food, fantastic cocktails, and a beautiful selection of fresh oysters. Also, very clearly marked gluten free items and gluten options available, perfect for those with gluten allergies. Great place for a date night!

Mike Marchetta

Always awesome! Food quality is excellent Service is excellent Alot of great options on the menu to choose from. They definitely focus more on the ingredients and quality. Much better choice than other local places by far! Portion sizes are just right but bring your appetite and try a few things..you can always bring it home. Atmosphere is excellent. Nicely done inside. Well lit, clean, updated and they offer various style seating sections and Tvs if needed to watch something. It's usually crowded but they will do their best to get you seated. Has a bar, many drink options so no worries there! I am sure you will find what you need! Outside seating; they also have an outside section that is definitely worth choosing. Very nice ambiance and set up..heaters all over if it's cold but on a nice night it's worth it Price: better quality food, excellent cooking and worth the price. Definitely frequent Wakefield Tavern. One of the best out there. Gluten free options are one of the best out there. Pasta, pizzas are delicious. Overall; Head over and enjoy...certainly worth it!

C Rhodes

Pizza is phenomenal especially gluten free option Service is wonderful and always quick

Deborah e

I was very impressed! They have vegetarian and gluten free options and some really tasty drinks!

Hanitua Teai

This was my first time at Mofu and I will absolutely go back! I have Celiacs and the entire restaurant was kindly accommodating to help me avoid Gluten. The menu also has some delicious Gluten free options. The assistant manager waited on us and was the friendliest person, he gave me a whole list of gluten free options and offered me substitutions to make other menu items Celiacs friendly. My meal came out 3-5 min after my parties due to an error in the kitchen and he was kind enough to comp their delicious Vietnamese Coffee Mousse - wholly unnecessary as I was not bothered, but highly appreciated! Myself and my friends had a great meal, great drinks and the best time!
