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

Kristen Gauthier

Our server Andrew was very welcoming and kind when we visited during our family vacation. The salads are HUGE and he warned us - so we were able to share as a family of 5. My daughter and I eat gluten free and the pizza was delicious. I felt confident that there was no cross contamination (not a gluten free kitchen). I did not get ill and my daughter said “if this restaurant was near home I would ask to eat there every day.”

Unique. Reminds me of a subway order style. Customized personal pizza just shy of 11 bucks. Order any toppings you desire. Gluten-free pizza ordered by mother. Thin crust type pizza. Recommend baking a tad longer.

The environment was cool. The art is for sale (kind of expensive) the waiter was great. They have gluten free options.

Hemingway's has been safe for me to eat at. They have limited (think Well seasoned chicken skewers, lentil soup, and blackened fish of the day) gluten free options, but being Celiac in Melbourne makes any place with quality cuisine a repeat.

Ashley Beck

11/10 recommend!!! As someone with celiac, I was so pleased with the knowledge on my allergy and the food was AMAZING! Cant wait to go back.

We went here for our anniversary and the small touches to make it special, did make it special. Kacey was our waitress and she was just amazing, really appreciated her attentiveness in general, and with all my gluten related questions (they have a great GF menu). All around excellent evening with a great atmosphere and amazing food, we could not be more happy with our first time experience at the Chart House.

They have a nice weather protected outdoor area. I can bring the dogs to. The food is great, all kinds of regular diner offerings with a nice twist. Very easy to eat gluten-free.

I have my daughter and her friend here for spring break and Sunday we headed to Backwater for brunch! We sat outside on a cute patio and Chelsea was our waitress. She was very attentive made great suggestions on what we may like for food and for drinks. My daughter is gluten-free so she ordered the pancakes and said they were absolutely delicious. I had the breakfast sandwich on the Cuban garlic bread that Chelsea had suggested and it was absolutely mouthwatering. When the gal came out to deliver it to me, she said you’re going to fall in love and she was right. It was exactly what we needed to kick off their visit to Florida. I will definitely be going back and trying some of the other menu items that look delicious. If you’re in the neighborhood, you’ll definitely have to stop by for a fantastic dining experience.

I came here for the first time for an anniversary celebration with my partner and the dining experience was incredible! Having celiac disease, it’s very hard to find restaurants that are accommodating. Especially restaurants with good gf bread! George was our server, and was amazing at ensuring the food I ate was not cross-contaminated. Even going the extra step to flip the spoon in the non-gf sauce on the platter so we would know the difference. (The little things matter!) I would 100% recommend this place for any event, or even just a nice dinner out. Ask for George! He was an amazing server!

Toni caters to any dietary needs and the food is always delicious!! I recommend reserving the “chefs table”. You give Toni the basic food you want and dietary needs and she whips up a 8-10 course awesome meal. We love this place!! I have Celiac disease and have never had a problem eating here.

Aaron Neswald

This place is fantastic. The food service and atmosphere were awesome. Would recoment the combo plater and the. Also the gluten free menu and vegan menu were eazy to read and understand

Stephanie Gorman

Waited an hour for our food and our order wasn't right. I have a gluten allergy and this could have been bad if my celiac was really bad. Was very disappointed in the service because the food is really good and our first experience was good but not this time around. Very unhappy and the waitress couldn't reach her manager. Not good.

karen jones

What great customer service we had. My sister-in-law (who had not been there before as she is not from this area) is gluten intolerant and was trying to decide what she could order. Allyson heard our conversation and offered a gluten-free menu. She was very friendly and created a great atmosphere for us. I have eaten here more than a few times, but this was the first time I was not 100% pleased with the food. It seemed a bit bland, and after I ate I thought it might have needed some more salt. Since I NEVER add salt to food when I eat out, I had not even considered that. If the food had been up to standard, as it has always been in the past, I would have given five stars. This one food experience will not give me pause; I will definitely go again. Note: Allyson is awesome and needs to be cloned!

Regina Vogt

Decided to try this for father's day since hubs fav food is pizza and we r all about local. Staff is friendly but... I had to ask for kids water, refills of water, beer and wine, after actually ordering. No crayons for child, so he was disappointed. I am gluten intolerant, Checked website b4 we made plans. Get there, no gf options, Very disappointing as everyone in family was ok, but me. Ordered smores pizza, after 15 min, baby was getting restless, walked around, seen pizza setting there, waited, waited, finally asked if I could just deliver myself. There were at least 6 employees, 4 tables max when we came in. 2 hrs for our experience. Not happy, don't want to bash, but none of us will return. Sad bc we really wanted to support this family.the flavor of pizza was great, other than chic alfredo, no one liked the chicken

My picky, gluten-free daughters are impossible to feed and they say these are the best burgers in the world. I agree. Also, the fries are gluten free made in a dedicated frier

Lisa Day

Excellent food! I ordered a corned beef sandwich on a gluten free bun. It came with sauerkraut,stone ground mustard and coleslaw. I also ordered an iced tea. It was the first time I was there and I hope to go back

Kara

I love their vegan fried rice with mushrooms and tofu. The crispy tofu appetizer is yummy too! There are vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options.

Geri Nancy Smith

My husband and I just discovered this place. The ambiance is beautiful. Al fresco at its best! Food was delicious. Our server was warm, friendly, sharp, and attentive. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because of the french fries. My husband said said they were definitely frozen and overprocessed and tasted like plastic. He loves fries and he did not eat them.The fries do not match up with the freshness and wonderful quality of the rest of the food or the upscale ambiance. Hopefully, they are working on serving a much better product. I was also very appreciative that they can accommodate gluten free diets as I am gluten intolerant. Great place to eat, but we do not recommend the fries.

Nancy Jacobson

Sea bass was very good ... chef accommodated my food allergies ... would love for them to offer a gluten free pasta!!

Justin Rupp

Lots of gluten free options and staff was very knowledgeable in addition to gluten free items marked on the menu. I have celiac and did not have any issues. Food was delicious, will definitely be back.

Kristine R

Laurie was very attentive to my gluten sensitivity, I appreciated the gf options., And the bbq brisket burger my husband ordered was fabulous thanks to her suggestion to swap in the bison burger! Great food and great service overall! I just wish Florida was warmer tonight so we could fully enjoy the patio.

Ryanne Davis

This restaurant was really very good. Food was great and the atmosphere was also very nice - a bit dark but it adds to the ambiance. Our server was friendly but not as forthcoming with helping us maneuver the menu as we had hoped considering we stated it was our first visit. We had to force descriptions from the server and while she wasn't awful, she didn't make it special, either. The restaurant was not busy as we dined in during a lull on a Sunday, late afternoon. We enjoy this time of the day for meals. As for the food, the Pork Minestrone was so delicious! I would come back just for a bowl of this soup!! The flavors were spot on and a new favorite! The Caprese was very fresh and tasty. If you enjoy fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, basil, capers and balsamic, you will truly enjoy this starter. The Bruchetta was also incredibly tasty! There are two different Bruchetta choices on the menu. I do not remember the name of the one I chose, but it did not have capers. The flavors melded perfectly! My husband had the gluten-free pasta with meatballs and marinara. His true critique was that the gluten-free pasta overpowered the flavors of the meatballs and sauce and it really wasn't his favorite. He'd like to try regular pasta next time. We will definitely visit again.

I love the burgers here but the customer service is seriously lacking and the manger is extremely rude. Over my past 5 orders they have forgotten toppings, sides, and condiments. I’m a celiac and can’t eat gluten and this is one of the rare places who offer gluten free buns at an extra price. It’s already crappy I have to already pay more for a allergy but on top of that they never give me ketchup, or mayonnaise even when I ask multiple times to please put it in the bag. since my gluten free bun comes in a plastic wrapping they don’t put the condiments on the burger even tho I’ve asked them too they said they can put it in the bag and then never do! I’ve gotten a couple deluxe burgers missing onions, missing lettuce, missing ordered and paid for bacon on the burger. I’ve gone back through the drive thru because let’s be honest no one wants to eat a dry burger. Tonight I went through the drive thru after driving 20 minutes to get it and asked the girl three times for ketchup and even asked her if she put some in my bag and paid extra for two ranches and then I get home to no ketchup no mayonnaise and a burger with no lettuce or onion. I called the manager and was very respectful and said hi I was just there 25 minutes ago and ordered food, I ordered a deluxe gluten free burger and they gave me no ketchup or the ranch I paid for and my burger was missing lettuce and onion. And if I could come back tomorrow and get a remake cause this is like the 6th time it’s happened. He then told me I could come back right now when they close in 25 minutes and I’m 20 minutes away. He said he didn’t care there was no one above him to talk to and hung up on me. He was very rude, very disrespectful and I’m sick of them forgetting my items. Sucks cause food is good. Management is horrible and it seems like there’s multiple people having this issue. I work across the parking lot from them and eat there on my lunch sucks they’re gonna lose a almost daily customer over remaking a single burger. Do better

Limited gluten free options (I also can't eat eggs) but the quinoa bowl was pretty tasty (minus the egg topper). The atmosphere is like most chain restaurants, nothing to write home about. The patio is a nice option. Our waitress was absent most of the time, too the point another server noticed and checked on us, but that can happen anywhere.

Jacklyn Duvall-Francis

NOT CLEAN Daughter has celiac disease normally Chipotle is a very safe place for her to eat. However this one had all their ingredients mixed and they were unwilling to grab safe ingredients from the back. Normally this isn’t a problem at Chipotle.

Alanna Dixon

We had a fantastic experience! Our waitress was incredibly patient and understanding when it came to accommodating our gluten-free dietary needs. She took the time to ensure everything was safe and even made recommendations. On top of that, the food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food and excellent service!

Sergio Duarte

My kids love this place, and my wife has a gluten allergy, so they acomodate her needs.

kimberly benton

I’m gluten free! However they offer a unique and delicious Guava cider! They have a welcoming environment offering indoor and outdoor relaxation! Most importantly they support local farmers and recycle spent grains from the brewing process. Thank you for contributing to your community!

Jennifer M Santos

Food was okay. Called to see about shellfish allergy options. I was assured I could eat from their gluten-free menu, when I arrived and read the gluten free menu there is a disclaimer stating they can not guarantee there isn’t cross contamination. Thankfully, no reaction but was a little disappointed about the potential risk.

Hermione Phillips

Best Italian and Gluten Free Pizza in Brevard!!! Agatha (owner) is a phenomenal chef and incredibly accommodating for individuals with gluten allergies. Breezy welcomed us and made us feel like we were family over for dinner. Grazie! I don't know what is in their ranch dressing ... Magic? .... it's perfect.

R P

Their (naturally gluten-free) macarons are out-of-this-world amazing! I might have to take up exercising just so I can keep eating them! Their other two GF options included meringue cookies and creme brûlée, which also looked delicious!

Ally Bossler

Love the gluten free options!

Dani Cox

Wow!!! By far the best Italian food I've ever had! All fresh and homemade sauces. Great portions. Best Gluten Free Pizza!!! You must try them. You will not be disappointed. The owners were very sweet and friendly. Only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is bc there were no GF options except the pizza.

Sarah T

Love The Soup Shop! Love that they have gluten free options! Buy the frozen or cold and get the punch card! Wish I had known they had a punch card a long time ago! Also, if you haven't tried something and it's hot, ask for a sample! I didn't know they did this until recently! The grilled cheese and chicken noodle soup got the seal of approval from the 7 year old!

Marc Sing

Love this place!!!! Food and service are both great!!!! My wife has Celiac and had no reaction! Ate the chips, salsa, guacamole, queso and the arroz con pollo

Laura

Apocalypse has amazing coffee and a super cool space and atmosphere. Their coffee is some of the best in Brevard County. Their food hasn’t super blown me away but it’s still pretty good and I really appreciate the variety, as well as the gluten free options. The employees are always nice. The only issue is the lack of parking during busy times and lack of seating inside, but I suppose it’s a testament to their popularity. Regardless I love this place and can’t wait for their new location to open up!

Just Being Re

We’ve been twice and it’s everything we hoped it would be. It brings an elevated yet casual experience to our area. We dressed up one night and went casual the second time. We love that we have the option to get as dressed up as we want. The team remembered us from our first visit, which was nice. Both times we went were busy. Enjoyed a variety of different menu items and am pleased to see gluten free options on the menu. The food is served tapas style and are perfect to select a few for two people. Everything we tried has been great, but the lobster mac n cheese by far is my favorite! The second time we went, they gave us a wine layout guide so we would know what types of wines we would find in each section. I love that they offer wines at a variety of price points. The full glasses ranged from about $8-35, but most were in the $10 range. They even offered a wine removed option! This will be one of our new go to places!

Megan Meeks

We had Mother’s Day tea with a group of 6. We booked last minute and they were able to accommodate. They were so kind and fun and the food was great. They easily accommodated my 7 year old niece and my gluten free sister. The tea was actually amazing and it was so relaxing. Can’t wait to go back for lunch! If parking is hard, there’s a lot behind the Henegar center about 3 minute walk.

Breckard Ulstrand

Went as part of a party with 8 people for lunch. The place was clean and the service was friendly. The menu ranged from $13 or $15 for sandwiches (including burgers and chicken) to $30ish for steaks and some of the higher end fish dishes. The salads looked good and the other dishes I saw looked good too. There were gluten free options on the menu, and there was the option to exchange any protien with beyond meats. I had the Buffalo chicken sandwich. The Buffalo sauce was delicious, it was sweet with enough heat that didn't over power the other flavors. The fries were good and crisp. The chicken in the sandwich wasn't rubbery. Overall, I liked it. Would go again.

Fishing around? This place is right on the water. You can walk the dock and look at boats, sit outside, or enjoy the huge oval bar inside. My friend has a gluten tolerance. The server took her time and went over multiple items that would be gluten friendly. We sat outside ordered fish dip (not GF) and scallops and bacon (GF). Meal was Jack Daniels salmon. I had the sauce put on the side since it contains gluten. Food was excellent, presentation was great. Overall good experience. Also this is the actual menu.

Mac McHale

Very accommodating of gluten and other allergies. Kept clean despite being often times short-staffed.

PATRICIA TORSIELLO

Great service and food and Gluten Free!!

D Rich

Excellent place with breathtaking views of the water. You can get great views sitting inside or outside. Gluten/soy/dairy free items for me and tasty meat dishes for the hubs. Changing table in the women’s bathroom. One of our fav places for lunch or dinner.

Lolli B

I had the trophy wife out for a shopping spree downtown and we needed to refresh the engines with some gluten free fuel. We had heard about Fiesta and decided to grab lunch there. We were greeted warmly by Sam and seated quickly. Sam did a great job explaining the menu for us and filling us in on how all the food is handmade and same for their sauces. I got the fish bowl with yum sauce on the side. My wife got the steak bowl with mango curry lime sauce on top. The bowls have generous portions and we brought home leftovers! Try the orange mojito too!

Spencer Stromberg

Awesome place for gluten free

Sandeep Wilkhu

Sunday afternoon was excellent here Gluten free crust was fresh and tasty. Had shared few dishes, service was very good. Highly recommend this place

Craig “Food Monk” Carter

There is plenty of Philly memorabilia throughout the lobby area. K.C. was an excellent listener for great customer service. Three different lengths of bread and many combinations of ingredients for cheese steak sandwiches. The chef mixed up the ingredients on a gluten-free option, and lettuce and tomatoes were separate and not on the sandwiches.

Linda Mize

Everything was so delicious! The garlic oil was yum! We put it on everything! Our chicken parm and the chicken with procuto and cheese was so good! They have gluten free pasta. My new favorite place for Italian!

Bruce Arnstein

Amazing food and service! My family and I celebrated my mom’s 72nd birthday here with a group of 10: 3 kids and 7 adults. To start, their soda fountain has flavored sparkling water, unique soda flavors, and the usuals, but is made with cane sugar in place of HF corn syrup. The food is prepared fresh and served hot. Sooooo good also. Most of us had one of their award winning burger options, but they offer a good variety of food options. My wife who is, no dairy and gluten free diet, was able to eat a steak skewer with sides. The service was quick and friendly for a large group. I highly recommend Island IX for any occasion. If you're are looking for a new spot to eat - Island IX is your place!
