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

I ate the grilled blackened shrimp skewers (appetizer size with butter), The Chopped Salad, and I had crustless Key Lime pie, which was pretty big (to be honest). All were delicious! The rootbeer is gluten-free too (Maine Roots brand). Coke products served. Sorry no pictures, but it was all delicious. No reactions at all! I waited several hours before posting my review. I'm a highly sensitive celiac with a wheat allergy too. ❤️

I’m gluten free and my boyfriend is plant based, so this stop was exactly what we were seeking having come down from NYC to visit my parents. The options and the quality of the food were remarkable. It doesn’t taste like a chain, it tastes like someone cares and is on a mission for the greater good of seeing our relationship with food differently. I was surprised to see the 5 star reviews, but the hype is something you feel and experience. I wish this owner the best of success as they deserve it. Also the protein options wonderful! The gluten free (celiac) noodle options fantastic, and the chocolate vegan cheesecake bowl 🥣- yummmmyyyy

We've been going to the Bethany Blues on Route 1 near Lewes for several years while on our annual Rehoboth Beach trip. The food and service is always excellent, but I'm writing this review to give them the credit they deserve for being amazing with gluten restrictions/celiac. Every single time, when I mention my gluten free diet, a manager is sent to our table and is very knowledgeable about their gluten free options. I have been gluten free since 2008 and eat out multiple times a week so I can attest that this place is definitely one of the best in handling this restriction. While most restaurants are familiar with GF diets these days, not many make a point to train their management on it and have such a consistent plan in place (they also said they now offer a gluten free bun which is great). I had the pulled pork with cheesy creamed corn and a chopped salad and it was delicious and a generous portion. Thanks, Bethany Blues, for being so accommodating!

I can't thank Kristina’s Kitchen Express enough. I have Celiac Disease and always feel deprived of food and dessert when eating out, not here! I picked up the peanut butter pie, black and white cake, peanut butter ball and the snickers bites with a latte. Everything was delicious. I will definitely be back to try some food as well as a cold coffee beverage when in town. Next time, I will try Kristina's Kitchen, LLC on Reba Rd. I was told they have even more gluten free options!

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love Ted’s. From the warm, welcoming service—especially from our favorite bartender—to the incredible food, every visit is a treat. The bison burger (Canyon Creek, whoop whoop!) is always a standout, and the Gluten-Free buns? Absolutely drool-worthy! But let’s talk about the fries… oh my goodness, the fries. Hands down the best I’ve ever had. Made fresh on-site, they’re crispy, golden perfection, and my son loves watching the potatoes transform into something so delicious. Ted’s is more than just a restaurant for us—it’s a place we’ll keep coming back to, time and time again.

Came here because of the reviews mentioning gluten free options. The place was packed but we were seated quickly, asked for a table outside and got it. Great view. Dolphins swimming in the water. The restaurant is very loud. Water comes by default in a plastic to go cup. I think they're trying to get you in and out as fast as possible. I asked for a gluten-free menu, they said they are in the process of printing one and showed me a sheet of paper i took a photo of. At the table there was very little talk of dietary restrictions, the server did check with the kitchen if what I'd chosen was compliant gluten free dairy free but there was no attempt at helping select something. I honestly think they didn't understand or care how serious an issue that is for some people. My companion who can eat anything ordered a pepperoni flat bread and described it as "meh". I ordered the octopus which came with "apple puree" that tasted like absolutely nothing and i mean nothing and the texture was like grainy mashed potatoes that sat on the counter for two days drying out. I suspect there was hidden butter in it because of how i felt after eating it. Also ordered a "veggie bowl". Instead of actually making something with this, they just slapped a bunch of ingredients on a plate, added a cup of tamari on the side and called it a day. At least i hope it was tamari. Feeling as bad as i did after eating here could have been caused by gluten containing soy sauce or butter. This was neither good, nor priced appropriately, not safe if you have a food allergy.

We've been here several times over the years. It's got a great vibe, really energetic staff, and several solid plant based options. But when we went for dinner this past weekend I was surprised. I didn't remember it being so nickel and dimey. Lots of upcharges (including .50 for a tiny plastic cup of vegan salad dressing that my son wanted for his already overpriced veggie burger... To be fair, he said the burger was really good). And lots of just overpriced menu options in general. For example, my wife's chicken sandwich was somehow like 28 bucks (maybe because she asked for a gluten free bun?). And we had pickled appetizer thing which would have been embarrassingly underwhelming even if it cost half of what they charged for it. All in for the 3 of us it was about $140 or so with tip...and I didn't even get a cocktail (my wife had 1 and my son had a mocktail), and none of us even got a pricey entree...just sandwiches. I understand that everything is more expensive these days, but I don't typically feel screwed or "price gouged" when the bill comes (unless I'm at the airport or the ballpark or something). I did this weekend at Home Grown unfortunately.

EVERYTHING WAS PHENOMENAL. It’s the 2nd time I was able to eat here safely having Celiac Disease. Delicious food & great service! Special thanks to our awesome server, GARRETT! :) Can’t wait to come back again! :) ( If I was a local, I’d be here more often!)

Lynne L

Wonderful late lunch! Food was great as usual. They offer gluten free pizza in 2 sizes. Also had the Curry Chicken salad and it was excellent!

R Ro

Was really glad to find some gluten free breakfast options while on vacation. Very tasty and good service!

Kristie Walter

We are vacationing close to Bethany and came across this gem! We are gluten free and dairy free, and it was amazing to be able to eat such great food without having to worry. It can be such a challenge. The staff is so helpful and the food is so good! Ate brunch and dinner and we will be back tomorrow! Prices are very reasonable and quality is great!

Christian Alvarado

Hold cow! I’ve had a lot of bbq given my southern state childhood, and nothing can top this one! Amazing staff that will help you decide what you want, and their food is HEAVEN. I had one order, and I was mad I was too far away to get another order. The meat is juicy, and portions are more than fair. You MUST try out their potato salad! Also thank you staff for accommodating customers allergic to gluten!

Aleah Hartley

The food was good but I felt that it was pretty expensive for what it was. They had some good gluten free options and their staff was very helpful walking us thru the menu.

Chris Campbell

We have never had a bad meal or bad service at this location and they just continue to get better every time we go. If you have food allergies or if you’re gluten free, this is the place for you. The manager Tiffany personally bring your food to you and will address any concerns you. It’s evident that Tiffany truly cares about providing a great dining experience. She is a true joy and one a kind. Our server - Lisa was equally as fantastic and helped with our gluten concerns and reward points. I wished she could have joined us at our table she was so personable! Can’t talk highly enough about this restaurant - this is our #1 spot at the DE beaches! On a side note their Ranch is home made and the best Ranch sauce I have ever had! Photos are of gluten free Chesepeake Tortellini and a gluten free chocolate and peanut butter pie to die for.

One of the best spots for safe, delicious gluten-free food! Staff takes celiac seriously, manager confirmed separate cooking for my food.Clearly marked menu (GF/GFO). Favorites: shrimp & grits, crabcake sandwich, and that weirdly amazing potato salad. Even my gluten-eating husband loves it! Our favorite restaurant in Lewes & Reho.

Michelle Platt

Michael B. was our waiter on this busy weekend before Christmas. He was super friendly, speedy, & checked in just the right amount of times. I haven’t been to a Bertucci’s in a long time and the food is good. My table ordered spinach artichoke dip, veggie pizza and the chicken parm. The dip & pizza were so good. All the vegetarian & gluten free items are marked for people with dietary needs.

Kim Stewart

Best gluten free pizza

Lori Miller

Gluten free pizza was excellent!

Sonia Lopez

Stopped by this BBQ spot while visiting and was blown away! I came with friends to enjoy some good barbecue and definitely got more than I expected. I didn’t mention my gluten restriction at first, but when they brought out the complimentary cornbread with my ribs, I let them know—and they were incredibly kind and remade my entire meal to ensure there was no cross-contamination. The ribs? Unreal. We’re talking fall-off-the-bone, melt-in-your-mouth good. Super flavorful and perfectly cooked. Great service, delicious food, and very accommodating—I’d give it a solid 10/10 and would absolutely come back!

Ella Bucalov

As someone who's always concerned about a gluten/wheat allergy issue and whether food places can accommodate, I have been here multiple times and as long as I tell someone there that my meal needs to be made GF they make sure to prepare it in a separate location. I really appreciate their effort and taking my food issues seriously. It's especially great when I've been here multiple times and each person has taken it seriously. It's such a relief that I have a safe place to eat after work sometimes ❤️ Thank you!

Kenyatta Hill

Acai bowl was delicious. It was a little pricey but worth it. I absolutely loved that they had gluten free granola because most places don't cater to that need. And they sell it separately! Will definitely be back soon.

Leah Kaliszewski

Great little place with gluten free Mac and Cheese options. The rest of the menu looked great, but I was there to try the mac and cheese and it didn't disappoint!

Sullivan Demarest

Nice atmosphere, kind staff. Despite a very busy night we were visited by managers and our server to make sure everything went well. Server did his best to accommodate the vegan and gluten free members of my party. Overall; very good food and fine service.

Karen Miller

I dine in and get take out also delivery. I’m addicted to the chicken and waffles. My family comes to visit and it’s the top choice. My nieces and nephews love their breakfast croissant sandwich too. Pancakes are a hit. Thank you for offering gluten free so my family member with allergies can dine with us. Such a wonderful experience.

Josh Jasper

Best service I've ever had at a shake shack. Everyone was super friendly and considerate. Also, a convenient short stop if you're traveling north south long haul. They have gluten-free vegan and vegetarian options and are easy to pick through for other food restrictions

S Dicarlo

Really enjoyed the gluten free penne pasta with bolognese. Would definitely get it again.

Cary Armstrong

My daughter is Celiac, it can be very frustrating eating out. Even if there are gluten free options the cross contamination is always an issue. Servers here made sure to ask if there was an allergy, then made sure to change gloves and clean the pizza trays before making the pizza. I cannot say how much I appreciate the attention to detail, thank you a thousand times Louis and crew.

Mario Nappa

Gluten-free pancakes!!!!

shannon gilliss

Our first time to rehoboth beach we decided to try this pizza place. My daughter got a cheesesteak and I got one slice of pizza. The cheesesteak was ok but the pizza was the best I have ever had. The only complaint I have is I have a gluten allergy and they don’t sell by the slice. Very good experience we will be back.

dylan mendes

I had a great dinner here the other night. They do not take reservations so we had to put our name down to get seated. It was hot so we didn’t want to sit outside but they could have sat my party of four immediately if we wanted outside. We went to get a drink at the bar which was good while we were waiting. Like 15 minutes go by and we were sat. Thinking it would take 45 mins. Overall a quick turnaround time be sat. The waiter we had was nice and accommodated my sisters celiac disease very well. The food was alright. A little expensive for the lobster and crab salad which was not the best in my opinion. Overall a good dinner. Sodel rarely disappoints.

Fran Walls

Our granddaughter has a gluten allergy and was happy to see that the Smyrna Diner has a gluten free menu. The chicken salad sandwich looked very good and she said it tasted as good as it looked!

Island Gurl Dat

If you're looking for bold flavors and a fun, retro vibe, Taco Reho is the spot! This music-themed taco joint delivers not only on atmosphere but also on incredible food. I had the chance to try the Baja Fish, Grilled Shrimp, and Beef Shorty tacos, and each one was a hit. The Baja Fish was perfectly crispy, with just the right amount of seasoning and a fresh, tangy slaw that balanced every bite. The Grilled Shrimp was juicy and packed with flavor, complemented by vibrant toppings that made it stand out. But the real surprise was the Beef Shorty—tender, rich, and melt-in-your-mouth good. The blue berry lemonade was a hit! Everything is fresh and made to order. Beyond the fantastic tacos, Taco Reho is also a great choice for those who are celiac-sensitive, offering gluten-free options that don’t compromise on taste, as well as vegan options. It’s refreshing to find a place that caters to different dietary needs while still delivering top-tier flavors. A nostalgic rock-and-roll atmosphere, and food that keeps you coming back for more, Taco Reho is a must-visit for any taco lover!

PBJ Wiley

I love this restaurant and the food is really good. I have a gluten allergy and they have a gluten free bun available for the burgers. I do have to critique the bun though, it falls apart way too easily. They need to upgrade that, but I still appreciate that they have it. I would also like it if the menu was more labeled for allergies present, and wish they had gluten free chicken wings I could eat. However, the service has always been very good there and the atmosphere is pretty chill. My husband and I love coming here or ordering food to go from their online ordering system!

Jessica Gidwani

Popped in for dinner and was able to get a table for two despite not having a reservation. The restaurant looks deceivingly small from the outside but has plenty of seating and appeared to also have a downstairs area with more seating. Plenty of gluten free options. We ordered the roasted beet salad as an appetizer and different seafood pastas with GF pasta. The waiter kindly brought gluten free bread upon request to eat with olive oil. We opted for the holiday cocktails, a Christmas Old Fashioned and Holiday Whisky Sour, which were delightful. There is an extensive wine menu which we didn’t partake in but saw a lot of options. We finished our meal with scoops of gelato, peppermint (monthly special) and pistachio. The food was wonderful as was the service. Highly recommend!!

Jacqueline Balaga

As a gluten free vegan, this place is a dream! Food is delicious, staff is friendly and knowledgeable Facility is clean, lots of seats and outdoor seating is available as well. I’ll definitely be back!

Amanda Sleeper

Indoor and outdoor dining options. The outdoor patio is pleasant but overlooks parking lot/driveway. Menu has multiple selections for breakfast/brunch with gluten-free options, offers multiple flavors of mimosas with pitcher options for sharing. Wait staff are friendly and check in sufficiently without rushing. I had a crab and shrimp omelet. The portion is generous and comes with a side of potatoes. The flavor was good.

Dawn Stewart

Great pastry including gluten free..but not enough space..tables are cramped.

Laura Conner

Really great cocktails and pizza! My gluten free pizza was the best I have ever had...thin and crispy which is how I like it! The Italian salad was very good also!

Tanner LaMarche (Tanner Personal Account)

Food is good, but the price and amount of sushi you get is off. Never been somewhere that gives less than 8 pieces of sushi per roll, especially paying the prices they have. The gluten free pizza however is awesome, you’d never know it was gluten free. Same thing regarding price, small pizza for what you pay.

Shelby Langan

The only thing I would change about this place are the hours. It would be amazing if their lunch menu was a dinner option in milton and I know they would bring in loads of business. For some reason it’s always Sunday when I get the urge to go here for breakfast. That said - the food is fantastic and the price is even better. They have done such a great job with the interior. It’s a place I have gone to sit and work and have coffee, but also a place my family loves to go to. It has a cozy feel. The people there are always wonderful. They have just enough gluten free choices that my diet doesn’t create an issue going here. I hope this place is around forever.

Carl Simpson

Fantastic Hawaiian sushi bowls. They have preplanned bowls or you can make one from scratch with whatever you want in it. All the fresh ingredients are out right in front of you. Gluten free options are available.

Amanda Holcomb

The food was absolutely AMAZING!!!! They were also patient with our 3 year old and our service was great. I haven’t been in a couple of years and while it has always been great…. It was particularly amazing tonight! The ahi tuna nachos and the seafood boat were both amazingly delicious (like eyes rolling in the back of your head full of flavor) and the classic baked Asiago oysters along with the fresh raw oysters were phenomenal! I also LOVE that they offer the gluten free desserts. The flourless chocolate torte was phenomenal! Thank you!!

Angela M Ferguson

Always enjoy getting my favorite tostada stack! It's gluten free, fresh and delicious! You can customize your items easily as well.

Carolyn

We stayed in OCMD and I was searching all week online for places like this, specially bc my daughter can't have dairy or gluten. But I also just wanted good coffee, on our way home, we passed this place and decided to wait for them to open. I'm so glad we waited because it was delicious and my daughter was able to eat something out. The breakfast sandwiches were good too.

Sandra Sykes

One of if not the best Gluten free meals I have had.

Robert Smith

Generous portions, great service, and gluten free rolls available for sandwiches. Highly recommended.

Jonathan Graifer

Genuinely excellent modern Mexican food with some original twists to classic favorites. Fresh guacamole, proper salsa made with fire-roasted vegetables, and chips not just salted but actually spiced with a bit of smoked paprika and chili-lime, and arrived hot and fresh. All the entrée items my group had were top notch, and they were very accommodating in dividing the check among 5 people. Friendly and professional staff. Menu has clear lables denoting items that are vegetarian, contain allergens like gluten or dairy, and where they can perform substitutions. Portions are just right, not too big nor too small.

Megan Kauwell

Chelsea was our waitress and she took great care of us. She was so friendly and very knowledgeable about all the gluten free items on the menu. Great atmosphere, delicious food and creative cocktails

Angela M Ferguson

Stopped in for lunch with clients and tried their queso burger with a gluten free bun. Delicious!
