Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots with Outdoor Seating to Enjoy in Edinburgh

Katie Shepherd

Amazing GF pizza

Claire Graham

Amazing crepes with wonderful fillings. A regular for me!

Paul Steinmann

Super friendly service, very delicious sandwiches, most dishes available gf. Gluten free. Also a quiter place, a bit out of the touristic zones. We have been here every day we spend in edinburgh! ... okay, 2 days, so only twice, but still !

Morgan Patzelt

Unreal restaurant especially if you have dietary restrictions. Nearly the entire menu is gluten free which is awesome because they have local delicacies like scotch eggs and haggis that you can’t find GF elsewhere. They were super diligent with other allergies and dietary requirements. Also, make sure you check out the mushroom emporium in the basement!!

Martin Barnes

Great gluten free menu

Alessio Barili

Scottish pub with gluten free beers. Magnificent

Service is friendly, loads of GF options. GF food fried separately. I'm coeliac and ordered a few times here and no issues. Highly recommend this chippy.

A hyped up place on lots of GF/DF Edinburgh blogs. The staff were friendly and accommodating, Coffe was good, but sadly not a great review from me. Party of 4, prebooked. We arrived hoping for some yummy or interesting breakfasts as the menu seemed to promise. Their gluten free options were limited and the bread served was horrendous quality, not even toasted or buttered?! We paid between £11 and £17 a head. The food was mediocre at best. Would've liked to try the french toast as that looked and smelt amazing!...but it is only available with dairy. Poached eggs tasted of vinegar. I would not recommend the items we chose: za'atar spiced scrambled eggs on toast with spicy hollandaise, fresh coriander & jalapeno salsa - very meh and surprisingly flavourless. poached eggs on toast, + mushrooms + gf bread - tiny mushrooms grilled into oblivion, possibly the worst gf bread ever, untoasted and unbuttered. hummus on sourdough toast with cherry tomatoes, pickled shallots, za'atar, salda verde, capers & crispy chickpeas - the most interesting of all that we ordered, but really needed more salt! Anyone else of hummus being the go-to for vegans?

We were in the neighborhood doing some shopping and one of the shoppes mentioned Côte. It was nearby and we walked in during a busy lunch time. The accommodated us very nicely considering we didn’t have a reservation. I adore French food but never get to go when dining with my daughter who is gluten and dairy free. However, they had so many items to choose from for her. The food was outstanding!!! Cannot wait to go back.

Victor Desmet

Would certainly recommend this place! Amazing for breakfast and brunch/lunch. I had the Scottish salmon toast, and my gluten intolerant and dairy free friend had the best pancakes. There were a lot of other Gluten free options available! Sweet staff and quick service even though it was quite busy!

Natalia Fernandez Caja

The food is incredible, you can tell they are Italian. They have gluten-free pasta options although there isn't much to choose from. It comes in a VERY small quantity for the price, but it is very very delicious for a treat-meal.

Julia Villoldo

We ate very well. One of us is celiac, and the pizza was delicious. They were very attentive to our tastes. Our waitress, Maria, was very attentive and helpful. My only complaint is that the tables are very close together.

Jannicke Røseng

Very nice food! I apprechiate that the menu is marked with what is gluten free. Had the chicken skewers, very big portion and everything was tasty. I am a sensitive celiac, had no ill effects after the meal.

Allan Napier

Great gluten free options

Meriel Graham

Fantastic breakfast. Had the gluten free option of the full breakfast. Would highly recommend!

Kane Sainsbury

We came here for the final breakfast of a mini break. We were sent over from scran who recommended Hula for allergens. The breakfasts were overpriced and painfully mediocre. I massively resented paying £40 for 2 blah coffees, and 2 plates of avocado toast, one of which was on the crapest gluten free bread available. Sorry Hula, maybe we ordered wrong but really not worth it.

L.

Very tasty food, also a special menu for gluten-free dishes. The friendly staff pointed out possible cross-contamination due to the small kitchen. Highly recommended.

Courtney Linnemeier

Staff were amazing and the food was great! They were very knowledgeable about celiacs and what I could and couldn’t have and were able to alter menu items to accommodate. 10/10 will go back!!

Briony Stewart

Food is amazing as are the staff!! Highly recommend!

Toria Petrie-Armstrong

Amazing service from the minute we arrived and even a joke with one of the servers as we were leaving 😊 The food options are varied and I did have slight food envy of the table beside me. However my food was amazing, perfect flavour and good quantities. One of friends is a coaliac and there is a separate gluten free menu and they have separate cooking utensils etc in the kitchen to make sure there is no contamination. My other friend is a vegetarian and she liked that there are vegetarian options and vegan options. All in, this is one of my favourite places to eat in Edinburgh

Sam Stone

Came to this lovely place with some friends who lived nearby and recommended it. Really lovely big open room with loads of windows that look out onto the sea. Very good menu of breakfast/lunch/treat options. Their cake displays by the entrance have an amazing range of different items (including lots that are gluten free/vegan) I had a piece of the carrot cake which was amazing. Not only the best carrot cake I've ever had but also one of the best cakes too. The texture of the cake was perfect and the flavours of the carrot and different spices was also really really good. My wife had a bacon roll which was very nice. Perfectly cooked bacon on a really lovely roll. The staff were all really lovely as well. Our friends had their baby with them so we spent a really long time ordering/eating/cleaning up afterwards and we didn't feel rushed at all (despite an endless queue of people waiting to be seated) We also got some extra carrot cake and other treats to take away which were also really good (Tip - cheaper price of you buy the cakes to take away) Highly recommend this place and we will definitely be back next time we are in the area

Lucy Taws

The gluten free menu was clear and had quite a few options, however you are limited to fusilli pasta. The meals were delicious and I would really recommend the honey glazed sausages with the smoked chilli sauce for a starter. 20% off for students as well

Kiana Rome

We had a lovely time. Tanya was amazing and attentive! Love the gluten free friendly pasta!

Daniel Mcshane

very nice and cosy, delicious sandwiches! I'm gluten free, and both their gf bagels and their soups were amazing!

Donna Avery

Loved this surprise find! Stumbled in here looking for something warm to drink and got this mulled wine and gluten free carrot cake.

Jamie de Bie

Pricey but food is great and very coeliac aware.

Rebecca Robinson

Ah Dishoom! We had a business brunch meeting, not our first, we love this place in the mornings. Bottomless chai and chocolate chai just keep appearing at your elbow, staff are so good. Other coffees and teas also excellent. I'm gluten free so the granola bowl is perfect - granola, vanilla yogurt and colourful fresh fruit always make me so happy. Everyone else went for wraps or the omelette or the bottomless porridge - something for everyone including the dairy-free folk too. We'll be back. Set over three floors, but very popular so do book

Jason (Eris)

Having been here twice now, I can say that this is one of the nicest cafés in Edinburgh! The food was absolutely delicious, and I love that there's gluten free and vegan options available! I will definitely be back here again :)

Mikel Revilla

A fantastic place for a cold day, I recommend it 100%. I am also celiac and they have very good control over the gluten issue.

Olivia C

Good GF options and they take good precautions when taking GF orders.

Jon H

My partner is a coeliac and she's also currently feeding our 2 month old who seems to have a cows milk protein allergy at the moment. We're not the easiest to cater for at the moment, but we were really really well looked after. They checked everything carefully and the chef was made aware. The food was absolutely flipping amazing. I had a Jai and saag aloo myself and it was phenomenal. I'll definitely be going back! Thank you for looking after us.

Fiona Yeang

Great place. Entrance is wheelchair accessible, and the gluten-free pizza base is fantastic. Friendly service, good atmosphere.

Franziska Stefan

Lovely cafe with a lot of gluten-free options and the cake was amazing. Very busy on the weekend though.

Alastair Ross

Excellent tacos, delicious margaritas, great vibe. Everything's made fresh right in front of you. It's tempting to spend all evening there ordering more rounds of tacos and drinks. Also everything is gluten free for whom it may concern.

Aaron Heckert

Perfect. This place is awesome. Very gluten-free friendly and great mixed drinks. Aaron and Lily were great.

Ignacio Marin

Adapted gluten-free breakfasts, without contamination. They give you gluten-free bread if you want and the menu says what does NOT contain gluten. Celiacs, you can have breakfast in peace, my celiac wife was not contaminated.

Giulia Mengardo

Very good gluten free breakfast. I ordered a delicious yogurt with oats, honey and jam. Gluten-free bread for savory breakfasts is also available. Very kind and helpful staff. Not very spacious but well organized and comfortable environment. The only thing I would improve is the brioche with gluten because it was small and not stuffed. Otherwise perfect!

jasmina dave

I went for the unlimited tapas last night and I explicitly said multiple times that I’m allergic to gluten and they fed me 3 gluten tacos. In which I had to go hospital after the dinner. - they still charged me for the meal.

Dave Tucker

Good place to visit for burgers, excellent choices and tater tots as a side are great. The rear dining space is impressive but very large & only half full on our visit so there was very little atmosphere. They offer gluten free burgers which are good but half the size of the non-GF equivalent.

Lisa Cunningham

Great as always with some of the best tapas I've had with gluten free options and delicious wine.

Cheryl Clarke

Had lunch here, food very nice. Massive portions and excellent gluten free choices. We had the mussels and fish and chip and they were delicious. Cosy atmosphere in the back, with a little fire.

Briony Stewart

Best gf fry-up!! So unassuming, very knowledgeable staff, and great food!

Kate Oliphant

We are both gluten and dairy intolerant so it's so nice to go somewhere, not be worried if there's something we can eat. be comfortable and the waiter was lovely

Devraj Dutt

I went here early one morning since Google recommended this place for gluten free food. The food was ok but the experience was not great. First I was told that I had ordered take away and if I wanted to eat in the shop, there would have to be a 20% surcharge. Then the receipt provided was not properly written, both the items on order show as "VAT" on the receipt. So my experience was not great. I would recommend you try other places if you are looking for a gluten free meal

Jill

This is a bar focused restaurant, so it's quite casual. Gluten-free churros, with delicious dip- highly recommended. Yum! The roasted beets ranged from cold to hot but mostly luke warm. Beets tasted good, but I was bothed by the temperature inconsistency. I was told this was normal.

ALI

Good gluten-free choice

Sher Miller

good drinks, good service. unfortunately nothing gluten free AND vegan on the menu! still have as many stars because their service was impeccable and their knowledge on allergies was great!

Lorraine Fordyce

Gluten free menu is fantastic and hopefully more dishes will be added to it

Tim Neill

Absolutely fantastic. Always go here when in EDI - especially for their Gluten Free options (including a full fry-up!)

Vanessa Moody

Amazing gluten free food.
