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

Johnathan Crihfield

Not a lot of places for someone who has a baby for a stomach with IBS, Gluten intolerance, and Dairy allergy, yet I can come here and get a medium pizza for less than 20 bucks with everything I can actually have, and it not only look like a freaking normal pizza for once (fantastic mind you) and it was freaking perfect. I will be coming here on the most absolute regular now.

Grace Norwood

Alyssia did a wonderful job. Would like to see more gluten free options.

Melissa Porter

A wonderful establishment that is one of the most accommodating places I’ve ever been to.

Jace Brooks

Delicious gluten free Asian food with a wide variety of choices. I also appreciate that Health-Ade Kombucha is available in 11.5 FL OZ cans. Fast and friendly service. Clean establishment.

Chris Bogues

Food we ordered was good. Waiter (Steve) copped an attitude when 2 in our party informed him of their severe dairy (anaphylactic) and gluten allergies. He was unwilling to explore options regarding the menu. “We’re busy in the kitchen. I can’t ask them”. If you go to this location, request to not be served by Steve.

Vanessa Ball

Ok, so this place is AMAZING! Firstly, the fact the staff is SO nice and helpful is beyond awesome but they actually have gf options for people with celiacs and it all tastes SO good! I love the atmosphere, I love the service and typically go here a few times a week! Fantastic place!

Gluten Free bun available. Good burgers.

Megan Ross

The coffee is amazing and the staff is well versed in food allergies. They even offer a military discount. The gf baked goods are always delicious and are kept separate from gluten items. As a celiac I highly recommend this place as I have never gotten sick.

Expensive, but the food, service and atmosphere was great. Very nice area for a special occasion. We had the prime rib, petite prime rib, asparagus, jalapeño infused potatoes, and creme brulee. Our server was very attentive to our needs as well. They offer a nice gluten free menu as well.

Nikki Stroop

I am gluten-free. I asked 3 times if the meal I ordered was GF. I started to feel bad about an hour after the meal. Stomach issues for the entire next day. The meal had either some high cross contamination or they didn't make it properly.

Zoe Wheeler

Amazing filet mignon, lobster and shrimp and the gluten free brownie is the perfect end to a good meal

Heather Colter

My boyfriend and I went to brunch here this past Sunday and it was phenomenal! The food, service and , atmosphere are amazing! Our server Makenzie was the best and very knowledgeable about the menu. I have celiac disease so I’m always apprehensive to try new places but I can say with certainty we will be back!

Seth Schwartz

This place is awesome! Great food and service. We love going here. My wife is Celiac and they are very careful with the gluten-free options.

Dan Blausey

Amazing coffee shop with a nice selection of foods, sweets and savory treats. (Gluten free selection is available) The ladies that we interacted with were very friendly and welcoming to us, as we were first timers on our visit.

Tyler Ross

Our server Ender provided top-tier customer service and handled my wife's gluten allergy with care and efficiency uncommon in the fast food industry. He knew what he was doing and immediately took the necessary precautions and cleaning steps to provide her with safe food. We were blown away with his respectful and professional attitude. My wife is Celiac and has a hard time eating out; places like Chipotle and employees like Ender make this process a whole lot easier. Definitely visiting this location again!

David Brueggeman

A great stop if you're in the area. Good service and very fun atmosphere. I had the pork burrito which is fantastic, and my wife was able to find a lot of tasty options which is challenging because she's gluten free. Our kids enjoyed the items from the kids menu.

Ali Rode

The drive thru and parking experience has improved dramatically. They were able to address my gluten allergy and they have breakfast bowls that are gluten free.

Destiny Williams

Terrible customer service. They ran out of regular buns. All they had were chipotle or gluten-free buns, which you have to pay additional money for. That was not properly explained. Why make the customer pay additional money when you are at fault. When I asked to speak to a Manger to have the additional charges taken off, some rude and unprofessional person told me it was my fault for not choosing to have the burgers without a bun.

Kate W

Good food, quite a few vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, lots of beer options. Great service.

Shana Byrd

Best in Dayton! Food is incredible, prices are right, wine shop + restaurant + bar all in one place. Did I mention the food is phenomenal? Quality ingredients, many dishes made from scratch, all are full-flavor! And the best part for someone with food allergies, they offer a wide variety of gluten-free deliciousness. Try the "Dig the Fig" GF Pizza. Service is top notch too! Love everything about this place... put it on your must try list.

Gregory Turner

Brought 6 people and 5 really enjoyed their meal. I loved the Hawaiian Burger. Wife appreciated the gluten free option. Greek fries were good. Only exception was that my daughter didn't care for the pasta but it's a sandwich place so... :)

Suzy York Sparlin

I became addicted to this place after my 1st visit! The sweet potato noodles are the bomb with any meal. I get the bibicup instead of the bowls because it's a lot of food and the cup is just perfect for me. All fresh and gluten-free. Everything tastes wonderful! 🤌 My 10yo daughter even likes it, and she's a picky eater! Friendly and patient staff. Clean environment. 5 stars all around ☆☆☆☆☆

Leah Towe

If words like gluten-free, raw, or vegan make you shudder and clutch your chicken nuggets, let me just tell you that Katie has the magic touch - everything that she touches is magic. You won’t know it’s healthy by the taste, but your body feels the difference. Everyone there radiates sunshine and their passion for excellent food that fuels your body shows in every item. I’m a dairy loving girl, but the herbed cashew “cheese” is what dreams are made of. I haven’t had a single thing on the menu that was anything that didn’t have me licking the container when I was done.

Nancy Silverman

It is a stroll down the road for me. The atmosphere is enchanting. Many options in coffee beverages. Also they've liquor for coffee beverages if you enjoy this. They've hamburgers and gluten free alternatives.

Jessica East

They’ve got the best gluten free crust in town!

Matthew Luhn

Nice place to dine if you're visiting Dayton, Ohio and want something a bit more upscale. My wife has celiacs and had no issues getting a gluten free meal. The waiter kindly told us most menu items could be prepared GF, even though there are no markings on the menu.

Mary Glowik

Food was great! Staff was amazing! I'm a carnivore & someone in my party was gluten sensitive. The employees were friendly & efficient & accommodated our requests during a busy lunch rush... impressive👍❤️

My partner and I went to celebrate Valentines early. We made a reservation in advance and had zero issues the entire experience. BUT YOURE HERE FOR THE DETAILS so lets lay them out. 1) We immediately were seated with no wait thanks to the reservation 2) Their setup is different than normal resturaunts in that the waitress brings you the menus not the person that seats you so getting the menus did take a second but that wasnt an issue for us. 3) As a person with a gluten allergy/celiacs the online menu was more helpful than the in-person menu but the waitress was super helpful/kind. 4) We got the fries/frittes - THE DILL KETCHUP IS THE BOMB, if you dont like truffles then you wont like the aoli. The fries are the small shoestring kind so they are super crunchy and not oily. You get a whole bucket of them which we demolished. 5) I will preface saying Roost is not about BOLD flavors their style is more enhancing and pairing the natural flavor of things. This is not going to be like Sueno (high end bold latin). Their food is complex but natural italian inspired. 6) My partner got the Veal and potatos and I got the chicken with GF raveoli. 7) I tried his dish and it was AMAZING. Cooked perfectly, amazing natural flavors with complexity. The tiny onions were adorable and delish. 100% will come back for this dish alone. 8) Initially the waitress forgot about my allergy so they had to redo my dish but she was so sweet about it. They redid my dish in less than 10 minutes which was shockingly quick. Chicken was moist but skin was crispy. The raveoli were slightly better than Aldi GF raviolis (my GF people will know this is a big deal) and the sauce was light but still flavorful. Plenty of sauce for everything. 9) We thought the meal portions were good sized for the prices. Keep in mind portions are made for courses! If you dont get an app/salad or dessert you might not feel there is enough food. This is not the place you leave with leftovers. 10) We did the Sorbetto and the Spumoni for dessert. Presentation for these were great. I LOVED the hallowed out lemon. The gelato was really good, again light flavors but a sweet/salty combo (strawberry, chocolate, pistachio with a salty dark/semi-sweet shell and a sweeter chocolate sauce) BUT we should have asked for a knife and fork because the ball kept rolling all over while trying to eat it. 11) We didnt do drinks because we went to Century Bar after 12) Only minor stuff that is not Roosts fault is the parking -Oregon district parking sucks Overall meal was $115 ish including tip (1 app, 2 entres, 2 desserts). We left full and satisfied and felt we got really good food/service. I had no symptoms after eating everything. We read the negative reviews before going and felt they were likely due to impatience (good food takes time and this isant fast food), and people not realizing the type of food/flavors Roost is offering.

Jen Atkins

Fantastic! Worked with gluten and carrot and shellfish allergies.

Mandy Moran

AMAZING! Love this place. Simple and straightforward with no extra bells or whistles - the real deal right here. I was in town for just a few days and ate here twice because I enjoyed it so much. Reasonable prices and good selection of vegetarian/gluten-free options. Thank you!!!

Marie Zaremba

We went as a family since we have never been there. Jake, one of the owners and Katie helped us. They were wonderful. Actually everyone was great. The lady who seated us told us how wonderful the baklava was, and it is. Katie recommended the potato with a philly choice in it, so good! They have gluten-free breaded chicken that my husband loved. This was definitely a hidden gem. We got in and it wasn't crazy busy on a Saturday night. We will definitely be back

Joshua Huynh

Great place, was my first time here and they didn’t disappoint. Our waitress Jewels delivered excellent service. She made a mock tail off menu upon request. Nothing fancy but my pregnant girlfriend enjoyed it. The deluxe calzone was pretty good, I’m more of a Stromboli man myself but they don’t serve those here. My girlfriend got the gluten free pizza and she loved it. She said it could’ve been a little more crispy but overall she ranked it her third favorite gluten free pizza she’s ever had. We will be back for sure and I can’t wait until we do.

Mike Benton

Cool place, had gluten free pizza. Was very good. Sad they didn't have any games operating, do to covid restrictions.

Kevin Sillaman

Ok, this place looks like it gets a bad wrap (haha) so I thought I’d through this in. Normally it’s just ok and I feel the bad rap it gets, but have never given a bad review. Today I walked in and someone immediately said hi. I hv a gluten intolerance and hate being that guy, but it was not a problem for the guy and he continued to be friendly throughout. Anyway, I am very thankful for workers and thought I’d give them a shout out. Thanks for being at the J. O. B. today and at the place that serves up some of the best fast sushi around here.

Dale Kendall Jr

Waitress was good, ordered a gluten free pizza (cauliflower crust) was awesome was like thin crispy. With chicken.

Justina Fileccia

My family and I celebrated an amazing birthday dinner at Thai kitchen! Our server Puiy was amazing! She was attentive, knowledgeable,and resourceful . Our food was absolutely delicious. We had no issues making requests and discussing gluten-free options. Our dinner consisted of a wide range of soups, appetizers, curries, fried rice, and Thai iced tea.

Cosmic Cat

Gluten-free friendly!!!

Elizabeth A Johnston

I feel aweful after eating gluten and they took so much time going through the menu with me. They were very knowledgeable on which items did or didn't have gluten and offered substitutions. For example, any sandwich can be made into a salad. They have gluten free bread for sandwiches and the merengue is gluten free and delicious! Coconut bars are gluten free as well.

Eclipse Leavy

I love South Park Tavern. Such a struggle to find really good gluten free pizza but their Backpacker pizza is one of the best I've found. Also, one of the longest running open mic nights in the area

Charles Goff

Amanda Angeli

This location is absolutely atrocious. We come here at a minimum once weekly & it’s NEVER fails they are out of vinaigrette & chips. I order a salad due to food restrictions as I have gluten intolerance and 90% of the reason we eat here. They want to charge me the full amount for a salad even though they can’t complete the order with the dressing! They have no regard for apologizing for the inconvenience of the items out for the night, they act like it’s no big deal when in reality it is ESPECIALLy when it’s three hours til close. I would understand an hour to close but three hours, unacceptable. In addition, the dining room is always so dirty. There is never a clean table.

tatiana wynder

Consistently good “bar” pizza! Vegan and gluten-free options too

Ashlynn Ferrand

Fast, friendly, delicious!!! A complete chance I stopped, but I am so glad I did!!! I was craving pulled pork, and as a life insurance agent, I'm constantly on the road. I google pulled pork near me, and I accidentally passed the first place that popped up and stopped here. The pulled pork with a mix of sweet and spicy, Cole slaw, and baked beans. Mixed together for an amazing gluten-free bowl. The cashier was a sweetheart, and I didn't even get finished reading the first picture on the wall when they called my name!

Gluten free options Stir fry with shrimp great and large portions

SJB

Went for a birthday celebration, with a decent sized group and everyone really enjoyed themselves. Rachel took care of our party group. She was absolutely amazing and made a drink for some of us that she made up. It's vodka, strawberry puree, line juice and pineapple juice. Absolutely fantastic! Another pleasant delight was to find out how many gluten free options Dub Pub has. Their amazing potato soup, the pub fries and they even offer gluten free bread. (Please note: they did not have any gluten free bread when we went and that's totally fine. Still had many options) They also had live music starting up when we were about to head out for the night. Not sure if that's normally a Saturday thing because it has been a while but it was very nice. Great food, cold drinks and great service! Can never go wrong!

Kimberly

Loved the atmosphere. Our waitress was very helpful and tried to assist me with what was gluten-free. The steak was quite tasty and thick. The food was great and the prices were very reasonable. Bonus - they have live music and bike nights. Will definitely return here!!

Rebecca Walker

Nice prices, fun atmosphere, and friendly staff who know what they're talking about. Great place to hang out with friends day or night. All the tacos I've had have been really good and can be made gluten free when you ask for corn tortillas. Also a great place for margaritas if you get any of the $8 ones!

Candie Belanich

I ordered a holiday drink, cookie butter, and a Turkey Bragel so I could get the Black Friday special, a bag, a mug, and a bag of BIGGBY COFFEE. Cookie Butter is yummy! 😋 I am gluten free, and, since the bragels are not GF, my husband enjoyed the Turkey Bragel.

Mudlick Tap House is located in a great building in downtown. The building has been home to a variety of businesses including Aquarius dance bar. I like that they left the cozy entrance as it is. The inside was redone in rustic wood making it a down home feel. The only gripe is how noisy it gets due the acoustics of the room. In the end it is a bar..but a bar that offers chef quality food made in house and carefully prepared and presented. The menu is eclectic and unique and the chef throws in a weekend specialty menu that brings the available food options to the top. I had the Ozar Salmon over a bed of wild rice, with corn, purple potatoes. I normally don't like wild rice but this was recipe is delicious. The flavors were perfect in the potatoes. The texture was also good. We started with the deviled eggs. I love any place that offers deviled eggs. However, I did think the mustard was a bit heavy and the radish garnish didn't do much for the flavor. They were still great! My friend had the gluten free mac cheese with a side of scallops which she said were some of the best she has had. Our waiter was great and knew the menu well. He also likes the scallops. Overall, is say this place is a must go once the again and again. The spirit menu was good offering a range drinks. Old fashion made with Bullet sticks out. They also gave Ginger ale. This place is good for small or large groups. The bar us good for the solo experience. O yeah..they have a patio. I can see how it can fun at night. One negative experience with Mudlick is their website. The menus link goes nowhere. It could use some uplifting all around.

My wife has developed a gluten allergy. She likes El Toro for the choices she has. I like El Toro, it has good Mexican cuisine and the staff is friendly. Honestly though, I would go there even if I didn't because it is one of the very few places where my wife can get something she actually wants that doesn't make her sick for three days.
