Top 29 Gluten-Free Spots with Outdoor Seating to Enjoy in Fortitude Valley

Malina Author

The staff were absolutely amazing and accommodating. Our waiter ensured that we were all served and looked after and a shout-out to Millie (I hope I spelt it right!)! She made sure the birthday cakes were presented nicely and that we were looked after throught the few hours we were there. The food was outstanding! It was one of the nicest Asian restaurants we've been to in a long time. Servings are a decent size and great quality. We had a coeliac member of family with us and they have so many gluten-free options! Usually difficult in Asian restaurants. Cost is reasonable for what you get. The only issue is parking (like anywhere in the Fortitude Valley). Highly recommend 👌

Wonderful experience and everything ordered was gluten free and absolutely delicious. Staff very accommodating about food allergies. So nice to eat at a lovely restaurant and have so much choice regarding gluten free options.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently hosted a birthday lunch at Maya Mexican Restaurant for a group of 20, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience! The staff was incredibly accommodating, ensuring that all of our dietary requirements were met—from gluten-free to vegetarian and everything in between. Everyone had a fantastic time, and the food was absolutely delicious! The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, making for the perfect setting to celebrate. Huge thanks to the team for going above and beyond to make sure every guest had an enjoyable and personalized experience. Highly recommend Maya for any group gatherings or special occasions!

Great gluten free pizza base!

Not as good as expected. Also not gluten free as it is all cross contaminated certainly not a place to risk of your celiac

Kelly Martin

Great Food, great gluten free options! Would totally come back!

We had a sensational celebration dinner in the private dining room at Rosmarino. The food was incredibly tasty, and beautifully presented and the set menu had so much variety. They kindly catered with ease for 1 gluten free diner. The service was delightfully friendly, professional and attentive. Rosmarino made our celebration a very special night to remember. Thank you all so much. We would highly recommend dining here.

Fantastic location with amazing food even in the rain. We arrived prior to a massive storm in Bne. They were awesome to accommodate us along with the kids. The food was all spot on and could also accomodate low gluten options.

We were guests at a birthday party where a few of us had special dietary issues. The service and food were sensational, and the experience was one of the few times I didn't feel like a pariah. The gluten and dairy free options were delicious and the staff went out of their way to reassure me that what I was eating was safe. Thank you to all for a fabulous night!

Alex Hardy

Such a good spot for people who are on a gluten free diet. Got to eat things I haven’t been able to have for years wish there were stores in nz

Good food, great service and a view to match. Plenty of gluten free options. The wait staff were very friendly and helpful. The entrance wasn't obvious at first. But it's quite clear in the side street. Take the elevator to the 14th floor and there isn't much else up there.

Shintaro Toriyabe

Authentic Japanese cuisine with friendly service, izakaya style. iPad ordering system per table, with quite an extensive menu. The beef tataki was good with grated raw garlic as a garnish which packed a good punch, the pipi sakamuahi (steamed with sake) was also flavoursome with ponsu sauce, and sashimi ship all very fresh. The squid sashimi was also well prepared with the slices cut to the right width to match the thickness of each portion, which gives a pleasant mouthfeel and texture per bite. They also had the body/mouth of the squid served as sashimi with the tough parts removed, which I think I've never had before outside Japan. Very nice. Shishamo tempura was fried well, as was the cream croquettes and beef kushi katsu (katsu on a skewer). Even the dressing on the small accompanying salads was good and memorable. Grilled mackerel portion was generous and suitably fatty to be washed down with a beer. Kids had a curry which they also enjoyed. Standout for the evening was the deep fried flounder. It may not sound like much of a dish, but when correctly done the whole fish minus the head can be eaten. Here the fish was filleted and each piece cut into bite size pieces which was good, but the bones, fins and tail were deep fried in a single piece. The whole lot can be eaten with a unique taste and texture, again I've never seen this served up like this before around here. Desserts selection was also pretty good, and they didn't skimp on the ice-cream in the parfaits. They also had sakura dango, a glutenous rice cake thinly wrapping a sweet red bean paste, but with an outer layer of a salted leaf from a cherry blossom tree. Somewhat rare outside of Japan, it was a great mix of sweet and savoury flavours with the unmistakable sakura aroma. Highly recommended for an authentic dining experience. Definitely worth a repeat visit to try out the rest of their menu.

It’s a great traditional Italian restaurant! They don’t have gluten free pasta or pizza however there are some gf options for mains (some are also dairy free)

Megan Freed

Amazing vibes here! So nice that almost everything is gluten free and vegan!

Venice Emery

A fun and stylish Valley pub! The vibe is local business lunch and end of day drinks meets fun night out. 🥗 I love anchovies in my Cesar salad! And here they have real anchovies on Parmesan covered crispy cos with crunchy bacon morsels. The burger is buttermilk chicken on a gluten free bun - and the gf bun is one of the good ones! 🚗 There’s a little bit of parking for sober bae’s like me.

We went to the Valley store before a movie at the Palace. We questioned the waitress if the Crispy Burger was gluten free and she said it was. My husband is Coeliac. During movie my husband was feeling sick. We went back and questioned restaurant and they then said the burger bun was gluten free not the ingredients. How ridiculous!! We are very disappointed and would think twice about going to this place again. They didn’t even reply to my previous email!!

Bree Mcgirl

Such a great spot! They have the best coeliac friendly gluten free food. The venue has a great cosy atmosphere and the staff are super friendly! Bloodhound is one of my favourite spots in Brisbane by far

Ben O Shea

10/10 Burger, Great Gluten Free Options. Coeliac Aware, Bun was very good.

Armando Cota

I did celebrate my birthday there last Friday(March 01) and it couldn't be better! I bought the promotional "celebration package" available until this month(march) for 15 guests and every single guest went out very happy after that. It's been my third time visiting the venue. The all staff from, the floor to the management, were very attentive and careful to make the experience as worthwhile as possible. I had a guest who is gluten intolerant and the chef made an unbelievable gluten-free pizza!!! And also I made a mistake with my booking and they did an incredible job fixing it and I could enjoy my party with no problems at all. The booths reserved were very cozy and fit everybody wonderfully. To sum up, we had a lot of fun and I looking forward to going back I hope you guys keep the celebration package available for longer.

Ben Thomas

Excellent food and service. Went out of their way to provide vegan gluten free option.

Nick Foulds

A lovely location on James Street for an outdoor yet sheltered drink. Plenty of seating and small and large table options. Good fans for when it's hot. Food is of a good standard and many gluten free options for those with the need. Would be nice to see a gluten free beer on offer (not Hahn ultralight). Can get very busy on a Friday or Saturday night though. Prices are a little on the steeper side but it is trying to be a more upscale establishment so I guess this is to be expected.

We have been here twice. Once before I was diagnosed a coeliac and both times have been amazing. Although they didn't have a gluten free pizza base, the gluten free gnocchi was amazing. The other option would have been penne pasta. Great atmosphere and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Edit. Third time here and still amazing.

Natasha

Best menu! Even for vegans- I had a very generous selection and had trouble choosing. I could even narrow it down to Vegan+gluten free

Megan H

Quite a Cosy yet classy establishment with dining both inside and outside on the pavement. The dishes themselves were quite delicious and beautifully presented. Sides were generous and large enough to share. Extensive wine list and quite a good selection of cocktails. Very accomidating of dietary restrictions and gluten free.

Fi Poidevin

Renee Grandi
