Top 41 Gluten-Free Spots with Outdoor Seating to Enjoy in Anchorage

MUST try their GF DF carrot cake cupcakes. Amazing. Wait time On food and coffee will Be unreasonably long usually. Sometimes the food is super amazing and sometimes you’ll have to ask them to remake it. We’ve been coming here for 18 years and still love it even when it can be bad sometimes. In anchorage this is my favorite cafe as they have amazing options and the best hot beverages. However: the gluten free cookies and cupcakes and other treats they have are absolutely the best in town. They have different GF treats whenever we go. I love their selection. If only other places had such amazing gf treats. Not sure about their food options. Their matcha latte and coffee are just bomb. Service is either amazing and lovely or some atitude depending on who you get. We usually the the lovely people!

Delicious and so many gf options. I got the Eggs Benedict and it was amazing! Go to their website and join the online waitlist when you decide to come here. Also, seating at the bar is first come first serve we will be back!

Pleasant dining experience here with great service. Lots of gluten free options.

David Elsen

OMG!!! This place is amazing. Their gluten free options are fantastic, and they are so carful with cross contamination. All I can say is wow!!! Be as adventurous as possible when you pick out your food and they can make most of the food their gluten free. The prices were also very fair and reasonable. You can ask for half and half on a pizza. Finally it was amazing service.

Linda Cline

They had gluten free bread options, the grilled cheese with the reindeer sausage was delicious!

Michelle Dubree

Good food. Affordable prices. Gluten-free and Vegan menu

Aaron Morse

Delicious offerings. The wood-fire roasted vegetables are excellent and gluten-free. They also offer outstanding, gluten-free pizza.

Tim Marinelli

Great all around! We love this place. Gluten-free pizza is excellent.

Amy Thomas

Bustling for a reason. Good sandwiches salads and breakfast burritos, and amazing desserts with a huge gluten free selection. I love the setting and there's more seating in the back.

I keep wanting to give this place a chance but I think we’re done. We went a few weeks ago and the wait was long but nothing out of the ordinary. Once seated we placed our order. I ordered the sourdough gin and tonic. I asked to substitute club soda for the tonic. The soda was flat and where I assumed the rhubarb would be somewhat muddled, it was just a few frozen hunks tossed into the glass; not what I would expect for a $14.5 cocktail. Our meals consisted of the butter burger and huevos divorciados, both delicious, but we didn’t receive them until 35 minutes after ordering which was frustrating. At least I had time to try to muddle my frozen rhubarb. Before we got the bill my partner asked if he could try one of the biscuits. He was given a cold biscuit in a box. No butter, no jelly. It was dry. We tried again this weekend per my request since their gluten free menu is probably the best for brunch in town. It was another long wait so we went to the coffee shop next door. I ordered a cappuccino and it took them 35 minutes to make. I am not exaggerating. I then realized they have one machine for the coffee shop as well as the entire establishment so there were waitresses coming in for the brunch orders which put those of us in the coffee shop behind. We were seated after an hour. When given the specials I asked the waitress if the potato leek soup was gluten free and her response was “probably not, it tastes too good to be gluten free” we ordered the omelette and the shakahuska, and I specified gluten free once more. When the meals came, there were baguettes on my plate and my meal was cold. I asked if I could please have gluten free for a third time and she acted surprised. I placed the baguettes on the table and was brought two small pieces of gf toast to mop up my cold breakfast. Staff are very friendly and the options look delicious, but I think we just get really unlucky every time we come.

This is our favorite restaurant not only in Girdwood but in the greater Anchorage area. Very cozy space with great food and drinks. The menu is very celiac-friendly but it doesn’t feel forced.

A McWho

Great place! Get there right when it opens and you can seat on the roof top which is awesome!!!

Brian Slater

Did a search for Gluten Free Food near me, and this came up. Skeptical, we walked in and sure enough, they have gluten free buns, and even gluten free, dairy free oreo milkshakes. My wife and kids were thrilled. It was a new place for us to try and we'll be back. The only disappointment was the fact that this location has only on bathroom, and they were out of paper towels when we washed up. I let the employees know, and they promptly fixed the issue.

Sara Tall

Lots of non-coffee drinks to choose from and lots of seating. Good place to meet up with a party of four or less. Nice selection of baked goods with gluten free options. Very clean and safe during COVID-19..

Rachael Russell

if there are a lot of people you definitley be waiting a minute but its worth it, brisket is soo flavorful and cooked well. They have gluten free options that wont leave you dissapointed. consistent and kind!

Kathy Davis

Great food, drinks and service! Gluten free menu items are well marked. Loved the spicy margarita.😊

Bethany Marcum

We went for brunch. It's a very small place. Interesting menu with some tasty sounding options but almost nothing for gluten-free patrons. So I went for the miso-corn soup. It sounded odd but was surprisingly delightful. The service was very good.

Don't waste your money.. Go somewhere else. We stopped in for drinks after driving up from Anchorage for the spa while visiting AK and decided to grab a bite to eat. We used to live up here and had been to Alyeska plenty of times and to the other restaurants for food with amazing experiences. Not really sure how this one was so far off the mark?? Three of our four meals were so bad I wouldn't have expected to have paid more than $5-10 a piece for them. Dry as a BONE. We decided to ask for some marinara for the chicken since it was breaded and came with absolutely nothing else to it, and they charged us for the sides of marinara lol what a joke. Felt like being nickel and dimed over a crappy meal - not what I would have expected from the high-end vibe and $30+ meals?? Decided to try a gluten free pizza with butternut squash puree and goat cheese on it. Sounded really good and unique in theory but turned out to be a flat piece of crust with the tiniest amount of puree on it. As a whole, it was super bland and unflavorful, and again - *extremely* dry and chewy. A $5 budget pizza would have been better than this. I'm not just a hardass with high expectations. I've worked in the hospitality industry plenty and this was just so bad that I genuinely feel robbed. Our server was nice and she was great, but even good service on her end couldn't save this. At no point did we ever see a manager or did anyone check in to ask how our food was. I kept waiting - I didn't want to put the burden on our server so we didn't end up saying anything. Was going to say something to the hostess on our way out so as not to burden our server with it (it was just so bad that someone's got to say something! Otherwise how does anyone improve) - and of course there was no one to be found there either on the way out. The only good food item that came out was the meat ball appetizer that one of us ordered for his meal. What a complete joke. If you're going to charge upwards of $30 for basic dishes, at least get them decent enough that people don't have a terrible meal. This was a $45 tab at MOST value wise.. yet we closed out at $120. Such a let down. That's a lot of money for us for splurging and now it's just wasted.

I like eating here, even though the Gluten Free options are limited. The wait staff is super nice and friendly, both at the bar and at tables. They have a good gf bun for burgers that you can use for sandwiches, and they also have GF pizza.

Ellen Piekarski

Great pizza! My favorite is the Hungry Hippy. They even have gluten-free crust.

I love stoping at BurgerFI when I'm traveling through Anchorage. The food is great and the service is always great. Lani at the front counter is very nice and has excellent customer service. They also have gluten free buns so that is a huge plus for me.

Michelle Dubree

Very courteous. Great prices and selections. Definitely recommend. Offers gluten-free and vegan.

M Smades

Alaskan themes, real burgers made to order, service is great! What is not to like? Big selection of beverages, alcoholic or non alcoholic. And they made a burger salad for us Gluten Free folks, which is my favorite item to order. Definitely worth your time and money.

Lillian Vasilko

Fantastic Pizza! I got the Chicken Pesto Pizza on the Gluten Free Cauliflower crust and it is amazing! It does take a while like all Cauliflower Pizzas however but it’s well worth the wait!!

Jonathan Browning Sr

Always love a place that serves breakfast all day haha! The variety of syrups are delicious, gluten free pancakes available here for the sensitive stomachs. Omelettes are great, the Colorado is my favorite but they're all good. I've always had great servers at either locations in Anchorage. Thank you for always being consistent with service, food and attention to your community!

We showed up as a party of six. One of whom has a gluten dairy allergy. The waitress was amazing. The manager, Chad? Changed the channel so that we could watch the Pacers game. Class Act in Anchorage.

This little gem of a restaurant is small but mighty in taste. The buffet gave a wide option of choices for vegetarians and they were accommodating to my friend's gluten free request.

Angelica Cavanaugh

My husband and I visited for our anniversary. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, almost like fine dining. I was excited to see some gluten-free options labeled on the menu. The service was a bit on the slower end, but they were very understanding when I forgot to tell them I couldn't have bread and would need chips instead, which I really appreciated. The food wasn't as wonderful as we had hoped, but it also wasn't bad. My husband had a calzone he seemed to enjoy, however the white bean hummus plate was not what I expected for $18. The chips--an alternative to the bread--were straigh out of a chip bag from the grocery store and the cucumber on the plate tasted like it was about to go bad and was very wilty. The hummus itself was good and tasted homemade, but I would have expected more hummus and veggies and restaurant grade chips for that price. We may give it another try eventually and hope to have a better experience.

Anna E. Konev McElroen

Perfect place to grab a delicious burger. With gluten free options!!

Asking if something was celiac safe because my fiancé has celiac disease is always hard, but getting made fun of and having them put things in our food was not ok. The drip coffee was good, the employees were rude, almost entertaining. Everything we ordered was purposely made wrong. My order was ok because I poured my own coffee except for my cinnamon roll. I dont know if the cinnamon roll was supposed to have globs of butter instead of frosting, but that seemed odd.

If you are visiting Anchorage and need a dinner recommendation, look no farther. A friend recommended Crush Bistro. After a rainy day of sightseeing, this was a delightful place to eat and relax. Has gluten free options. Servers were so helpful. We had the Scallop Pad Thai!! Large portion, delicious. I wanted to keep eating but took home another meal for leftovers. Crush Bistro rocks!!

Ryan Martin

Great tacos! As someone who has to eat gluten and dairy free it was easy to eat great food here - I just ordered the tacos dairy free. They also have gluten free cider available. Very convenient location close to the St Elias hospital.

Worth swinging by this Kaladi’s location if you are in the Spenard area. Quick and friendly service, lots of room to accommodate their regulars, warm atmosphere and many great pastries, sandwiches and snacks offered. Several keto, vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options as well. The coffee is always good, never a bad cup at any Kaladi’s location!

Christina Manco

Amazing food and the igloo was such a fun ambiance. I was able to eat there as a vegetarian with gluten free needs. Super fresh and delicious salads and the margaritas were top shelf 🥰
