Top 50 Gluten-Free Late-Night Spots to Enjoy in Madison

Amazing customer service, people were extremely nice and friendly. Food was good and had excellent choices for vegan and gluten free, allergy friendly menu items. Not super expensive either, which is a huge plus so I can come here more regularly. Only leaving 4 stars because of the water having salt/minerals* and they had to remake my friend’s vegan tacos. Also would add that my mocktail was mostly ice… They were really good about providing allergen free laminated menus with notes. *Suggestion to restaurant, I know other people have commented about the water. It probably would have been a 5 stars if not for water quality. It just was a gritty tap like taste. (FYI water snobs in Madison, RED has the best free water served in restaurants)

I am gluten free and this is one of the true gems of Madison. If you’ve forgotten what chicken tenders taste like, this place has the world’s best gluten free chicken tenders. Make sure to also save room for the salted caramel cheesecake ! It looks like a sports bar but they have some of the best food I’ve had

Both times I've been there, they've had great food, great service, and a fun atmosphere. Gluten-free buns are always available, and they have a designated fryer to avoid cross contamination.

First time here, and I was very satisfied with the El Papí sampler and the Lomo Saltado a Caballo (center)paired excellently with a glass of Malbec. My fellow lunch party also enjoyed their meals. They had the Parrilla Callejera (left) and La Taguara Burger (right). They have plenty of gluten-free options as well. Will return again.

amazing food! lovely atmosphere - upbeat and wowing decor. an amazing array of beers wines and bloody mary’s as well. if you come, start with the traditional frites (fries) and blackened garlic ranch aioli sauce - fantastic! plus for anyone that is gluten free or celiac they have a dedicated gluten free menu - woo hoo!

Jenna W

Tons of gluten "sensitive" options! Our server was very knowledgeable and extremely accommodating Would most likely not be safe for celiac but for folks gf for other reasons, its great. The cheesecake was divine

I was taken aback when I found out they not only offer gluten free crust, but DAIRY free cheese as well! I’ve had frozen Daiya pizzas before that are…alright? But this was easily the best pizza I’ve had since going down the sad pit of a gluten/dairy free life.

Good food and friendly staff. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten sensitive opinions. Tacos and stuffed burrito are great, not the enchiladas.

Sue Ike

First time there and staff Jesus was very awesome, welcoming with explaining how the ordering routine worked. Was with friend and we tried both of the gluten-free crust pizzas and both were delicious. Will be back!

I love this place. They have such good food and service. I am now gluten free and just tried their gf pizza and it’s so good. They have great vegan sausage also! Of course they have all the cheese and regular crust also

They have an amazing gluten free crust!! And you can order many of the specialty pizzas gluten free as well! I’m celiac and I didn’t get sick 😎 bonus: the crust is also vegan and they have several vegan options as well!

Alison Onson

One of my favorite gluten free pizzas in Madison. This location is fast and it’s convenient since it’s just around the corner from me.

Kenneth Miller

Excellent gluten free pizza!

Went to get a gluten-free sandwich and was impressed by the variety of drinks and sides. I had a very generously portioned Rachel. The coleslaw was delicious. I would go back.

Kyle Simmons

My girlfriend has a gluten intolerance allergy but was curious to try a concrete for the first time, knowing there was a risk of cross contamination but being willing to risk it. We told the drive-through opperator that she had a gluten allergy, and they checked the ingredients for us and marked the order on the sign with a gluten (wheat) allergy flag. When we pulled up to the window, the nicest employee gave us a number and warned us that it would be a few minutes because... they cleaned the blenders, the tools to mix and scoop, and even the extruder. This level of service at a fast food restaurant is unparalleled even compared to Chick-fil-A! We will be visiting other locations in the future with hopes of equal service!

Devan Barrett

This Red Robin is amazing. The folks are super nice. My family has celiacs in it and this is by far the best place in Madison to go and safely eat with my child. We absolutely love this place

Mandy Christman

Great food with gluten free options. Incredible farm to table burgers, locally sourced. Fabulous drink selection. The patio is lovely! The parking is difficult so give yourself a bit more time.

Noah B

Fantastic place to eat for a good price, too! Good amount of options, has plenty of variety for those who are gluten free and/or vegetarian, and overall you get a decent portion for the price you pay, a rare sight on State Street.

Purely Kleen

Great allergy options! Very impressive for this Gluten and Fod Map free gal! Would really like to see a menu in Spanish, at least online. I have a hard time finding the menus at this place. I think they could place them somewhere more obvious. Sometimes service is rock star, other times it is a 4 star. Parking is a real issue for when I try to visit. I think I would go more if I could figure that out.

Mel Lobitz

The best falafel you’ll find in Madison. Super accommodating for gluten allergies, speedy pick up service, and amazing and kind staff. My partner and I weren’t sure about how much food would be in the falafel platter so we ordered more falafel on the side. The platter came with SIX (6) falafel!!!! So we got to enjoy the extra side as a delicious lunch the next day. So happy to have The Mediterranean Joint in the neighborhood!!

Amy Godecker

Happy our experience at Merchant was as wonderful as usual. We had friends from out of town visiting and wanted to show off Madison's food scene. Cocktails were top notch as was the wine I chose with my meal. I ordered the squash risotto which was excellent, even better than expected. Our table of 8 enjoyed the cheese curds and everyone loved their entrees, including the whitefish, chorizo verde and fried chicken sandwich. The desserts were delicious and our gluten and dairy intolerant guest was thrilled with the chocolate brownie dessert, as was the rest of the table. A great success all around.

Meredith Jones

The best vegan, gluten free pizza I have had. Thank you for having so many delicious options!

Tammy

Not the Weary I knew and loved anymore. I took my son out for dinner and I went home hungry. We both ordered the bad breath Burger, My son ordered his medium rare and I ordered mine well done with a gluten-free bun. We waited an hour for our food and when it arrived My son’s Burger was cooked well done and mine came with a regular bun instead of gluten-free, my son decided to eat the burger as is, they took my burger back to remake it and put it on a gluten-free Bun. When I got my burger, it was rare not well done like I ordered. It also only had a very thin slice of cream cheese, not the quarter inch slice that it used to have. Definitely not the Bob’s bad breath Burger I remember And loved. At this point, we had been there for an hour and a half and my son had another engagement to go to so we needed to leave. They offered To make my burger again Or give me a refund, I took the refund. The greens were also wilted and didn’t have dressing on them. I Will not be back, this makes me sad but the new Management just isn’t measuring up.

Madeline Doon

Pros: interesting menu, vegan and gluten free menu options Cons: burger was not cooked as asked, cash only

Abiztic

They have a good atmosphere for meeting with coworkers after work. However, their menu and food handling does not cater well to those with dietary restrictions. If you cannot eat gluten, you will likely have to deal with cross contamination here.

Lillian Perry

Went on a Friday night was busy but service was excellent. I loved my fish dinner was out of this world. Our party had a gluten free salad, rueban sandwich and grilled shrimp everyone was very happy with their selection. Our server really anticipated our needs answered all our questions

McKayla Wang

Disappointed in the gluten free options. I ordered my meal gluten free and received what looked like white bread. $2 extra for toast? Pretty expensive meal for absolutely nothing. . My friends’ food looked good, though.

Scott Tillema

Great service makes great food experience. Accommodating to both gluten and dairy allergies

Mirkwood

Excellent experience, with my gluten-free partner, trying the 'date night menu.

Sophie Warrick

I ADORE Settle Down Tavern! We were in Madison for the weekend and this place was at the top of our list due to the great reviews. The selection of drinks was wonderful, the vibe was immaculate, and our server China was absolutely stellar. I have gluten and dairy allergies and they couldn't ensure the food would be safe due to cross contamination which was a bummer, but everything else made up for it. We will most definitely be coming back!

Kandace Keuler

Disappointed in gluten free options.

I decided to get takeout from Tavernakaya because they popped up as a place I could get gluten free fried rice. To make fried rice gluten free, usually the only modification needed is to swap out the traditional soy sauce for gluten free soy sauce, tamari, or coconut aminos. However, after digging into my fried rice, I discovered that their way of making it gluten free was simply to omit any seasoning at all. It was so bland. I ended up heading over to the nearest grocery to grab some tamari to make my leftovers palatable. By saying that you will cater to the gluten free crowd but then just making a dish devoid of any seasoning or character seems like a cop out - might be better just to not offer it at all.

Heather Kizer

This was my 2nd time here. Great service! Decent happy hour deals. Flavorful Margaritas. Try the huckleberry! Such a variety for Taco options. You order them individually. I got 2 and they were delicious and filling. The menu is labeled if you need vegetarian, gluten free, etc. The have patio seating outside on State Street. It wasn't set up the day we were there.

The gluten free crust was delicious and I watched the folks working change their gloves when they were handling my pizza to prevent cross contamination. It’s a bit of an awkward wait (longer than you’d expect), and I wouldn’t recommend eating at the tables inside unless the weather is poor. Go outside and enjoy the view!

Davin Howard

They have great steaks and shrimp. I also love the gluten free options for my girlfriend and the waiters are very helpful, I love the hospitality

Sarah Kangas

Fellow millennials (and millennials at heart), these are the best sandwiches in the neighborhood! So far, I’ve had the Pork Belly and Classic sammies, both house sodas, and the tomato soup. It’s finally perfect soup weather and it absolutely hit the spot! I love the 90’s nostalgia and the friendly vibes. They also have gluten free bread that doesn’t crumble apart as soon as you touch it!

Tonia Miske

The decor was very cool. Atmosphere was bar and grill. Typical of what they were offering. The shareable cod tacos where excellent! I'm not impressed with the smoked half chicken. It was so dry it was almost unedible. I was disappointed, but I love the masked tators and red-eye gravy. Bonus part, it was gluten-free. Also, they offered Redbridge Gluten Free beer, but the server was rude and was not that attentive. When i said, "Oh yeah, Red Bridges is good. And i was excited cause not many places offered it. His comment was its okay." Im thinking, wow, maybe you should be trying to tell me this beer, not try to change my mind! And he couldn't get the drinks straight. He may have been new or learning. But not a good salesman. The rest of the staff was nice. Everyone else enjoyed their food. It's definitely a place I will return if I'm in the area.

Tylor Wendt

The prices are average for being what is essentially a sushi place. They allow you to mix and match your own bowls, they have some gluten-free options, and their in-house tea is amazing. Parking is also available.

J Keehn

Loved that I was able to get a veggie burger on a gluten-free bun without an extra charge. Burger was pretty good and appeared to be made in store not a frozen patty.

D M

They have great curbside service and hands down the best gluten free crust we’ve ever had. To top off the experience they finish the order when you are five minutes out so the pizza is hot when you get it! Genius

DeeAnn Martin (Dee)

Great place to sit on the water, the deck is shaded in the afternoon, food is good bar food. They do have gluten free options. 😊

Brian Davidson

Pretty good food and service overall. They have gluten free options but not alternatives which limits what I could order.

Anna DeBauche

I've been a Pizza Pit fan since the 80's. I've been living in Vegas for the last 7+years and recently went home for a visit. I can't tell you how freaking excited I was when they were out of their small gluten free crust and informed me that they were giving me the larger one. I don't know if they are in house made or what but when I move home there will be no other pizza love going on here other than pizza pit. I got an extra pepperoni extra cheese and onions. It was the most delicious thing I've had in a while on the pizza tip. They are so friendly helpful and informative on the phone AND the delivery is super speedy even when they are swamped. I yuv dems! Eat here! You won't regret it!

Kris Olds

Good drinks menu but the food was so-so. Flavors unremarkable. No information on the menu for those who are lactose or gluten intolerant which is easy to flag on menus these days. And the random delivery of small plates, which was to be expected, could have been a little bit more even for our table of four. And worth letting us know, when we order, which dishes might take quite a bit longer to prepare and deliver. Nice ambiance and good lighting. 3/5.
