Top 7 Gluten-Free Spots with Outdoor Seating to Enjoy in North Portland

Cian Montgomery

Great gluten free crust

Alex

This is the best vegan and gluten free food in Portland! Please open another location in SE!! I’d be here every day if it was closer.

Ashley Simon

Always grateful for 100% gluten free restaurants. The food was delicious!!!

Angi McFarland

Very allergin friendly. Loved being able to enjoy a waffle cone that was gluten free.

Hanna Thompson

Their gluten free crust is AMAZING. It’s a difficult thing to pull off successfully and they nailed it. The crust is thin, crisp yet chewy & full of flavor. The cheese and toppings are in excellent proportion and the whole thing is baked to the perfect level of delicious golden brown. I got the St. John’s without the sausage and it was exactly what I was craving. Yum!! The house salad was pretty basic but a good complement to a pizza dinner, next time I will try the Caesar. Will definitely be a return customer while I am in town. Bravo! I had takeout but the building and atmosphere is very cute, quirky and inviting, and when it is not 101° I would love to sit outside on the patio with my dogs

Jim Lewis

We live further away and this is a little far for us, however, we find ourselves there on the weekend on a regular basis. Great Vegan food that is free from the allergies we worry about most - Gluten and Soy.

Jennifer Villa

Excellent spot. Staff was friendly and food was delicious. Went with a gluten free friend and we appreciated that they had options for gluten free folks too.

K M

Super friendly and cute place. Gluten friendly but NOT Celiac friendly. I got sick off of it but mostly cross contamination. Good food and great atmosphere otherwise!

Christina Chao

I got bugolgi beef and it was good, the bowl was big. Their miso soup is aromatic. I loved their cheese and corn, because who doesn’t love cheese and corn? First time in my life having corn tea and it’s going to be my thing from now on. So grateful this place introduced me to corn tea. Also cookie points for being gluten free so that my partner can eat here with me :)

Owner operated and delicious food .we were visiting portland and amazed by the test of the food . The 100% gluten free teff Enjera is amazingly lemelem (ለምለም ) as we call it back home . I loved the Dulet kitefo, and my friend liked both the juicy lamb tibes and the fish .we had lunch for 3 days in a row and that speaks volumes. Nicely spiced and cooked. The owner also offered us to test a wine made by one of their own. Which was organic and smooth. Give it a try if you are in portland area and you will never be disappointed. The sign from outside may look a little old ( fading) . But inside is completely different atmosphere and service, I witnessed a significant amount of locals coming to the restaurant for lunch and dinner. Keep up the good job . Hop to see you again . 🙏

This place has it all! Abundant coffee choices, so many delicious pastry and cookie choices including gluten free, seating for groups and singles, adorable atmosphere, convenient location, friendly baristas!

Julie Barnett

Decent gluten free pizza. The crust was very overdone. The GF/keto peanut butter chocolate protein bar was amszing

Erika H

Food and drinks were great. Staff was friendly. Really appreciated their kindness when asking if the chips were Celiacs friendly! (They are)

Jenna Lee

Kind staff, very yummy food and easy to eat gluten free and vegan! We went for lunch and it was quite cold inside (felt like the heat wasn't on at all), but otherwise it was great and we will definitely be back.

Jane Weil

We've had Mikasa delivery a few times and finally got to go in person. It's a nice, small, restaurant with a few tables along 1 wall. The waitresses were friendly and helpful with our questions before ordering. We got the gyoza, edamame, miso ramen, laksa ramen (made gluten free), cali & avocado rolls, and a poke bowl. Everyone was very happy with their order and gobbled it. The laksa was nicely spicy and the soft boiled egg in the ramen was so good. We'll definitely be back!

Josh Forkner

I love arancini and I hadn't come across it from a truck yet and he delivered. And gluten free. I couldn't say no. 3 sauces, all awesome.

Melanie Sullivan

a little pricey, but a good serving size. the selections were great and they even provided a gluten-free breaded chicken option, which was really good in the Caesar salad.

I keep walking by this spot and I finally went in to grab some of their brunch sandwiches to go. They had a really solid gluten free option for my partner and we liked it so much we went back for dinner! The empanadas were incredible and so many bonus points for the gluten free options. Will definitely be back!

Hidekel Moreno Luna

Great local coffee shop. Their coffee is on the lighter side but well roasted. Lots of bake goods including gluten free options! Place is very nice for hanging out there or on their tables outside.

J BB

I love Burgerville. It's always one of our favorite go to places while in Portland. I love that they have gluten free options and the kids are always happy to go too!

Jessica Murri

I have always loved Cafe Zoraya, but when I was recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease, I was so happy to find out that many dishes Cafe Zoraya creates fit safely inside my dietary restrictions. Even better — they have a separate fryer to deter cross contamination. If it wasn't my favorite restaurant in Portland before, it is now.

Kara Cooper

Food is great but ordering is annoying. You have to do it virtually. You can’t ask questions very easily and the dietary restrictions aren’t easily identified, filtered or something you can ask easily either. It seems they are short staffed and very busy so it can be difficult to get a person to talk to you or help you. There’s also no trashcan, which is confusing and you can’t reach the utensils for to go orders yourself. I find it frustrating to order there, but the food really is very delicious. I’ve been there a few times and there are a lot of options for dairy and gluten-free people.

Laura Gudman

Absolutely delicious and full of different egg based dishes. They have a lot of dairy free and gluten free options and just... yum

OneTon Tom

Delicious food! Love that so many vegan and gluten free options are available. No paying extra for items I don't even eat. Menu is small but very customizable. Staff is always extremely friendly and helpful. Some of the best outdoor dining in Portland. Love it!

Kara Cooper

Great food and smoothies. Lots of options for dairy free, gluten free, vegan and vegetarian people.

Jillian Schrupp

We LOVE Fino Bistro. Great for groups, dates, or to grab something quick. Love their cocktails, wine selection, and gluten-free options. Our only complaint is the jazz that plays in the dining area - it's loud and sometimes feels obnoxious.

Hung Wasson

My wife and I visited Mosiac Taphouse and the Vietnamese cuisine inspired restaurant inside it - Chemgio (pronounced Chem-Yah). We met one of the owners, tending bar. The tap selection rotates and is a nice mix. This evening, I had a couple of different dry ciders. My wife enjoyed some pale ales. You order food at the same counter as the beer, and are handed a notification puck that will light up and vibrate when your food is ready to pick up. [There's a button on the bottom of the puck, to silence it.] We tried the salt & pepper wings, the fried taro rice cakes, and the pork belly skewers. Everything was delicious, though the skewers were on the sweet side. We'll definitely come back to sample more beverages and more food*! *the kitchen is entirely gluten-free, as is the menu, if that matters to you.

Jason Starman

Great selection of tamales and tons of gluten free options.

Ian Oestreich

For $7 and 2 minutes of waiting you get a delicious bowl full of 16 oz of vegetarian goodness. Unlike most bowls of this type, this one it's filled with a large variety of vegetables and toppings in generous amounts and NOT mostly rice (there is rice, it's just not the vast majority as is the case with many other bowls). For a fast, healthy, delicious, gluten free and affordable meal option, you couldn't do better than The Whole Bowl.

Logan Gore

One of my all time favorite food cart pods in all of Portland! Something for everyone! Meat, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, you name it, you can prob find something to eat here!

Melissa Dasaro

Outstanding food! The cook is wonderful and helpful about what is gluten free! The portion sizes are very large but you will not want your stop eating them! We were certain we wanted to come here after the ear piercing. So, we had called the night before and found out most of their food is gluten free except the gumbo. My husband is gluten free so I had the Trinity gumbo. He had the red beans and rice. Hands down some of the best we have had! I would recommend to anyone looking for Cajun in PDX. My husband was told about this spot from a coworker and we looked it up. We love Cajun food, so it was a must try. We would go back in a heartbeat. If you have a good allergy, call them and they know all of their ingredients/spices well to aide you. I can’t wait to go back!

Sarah Dunn

I was warmly welcomed by Hollace and her associate at the counter. I was inquiring about gluten free options and was navigated in a positive and patient manner. Fantastic customer service and wonderful menu options !!! I will be back often!

kaitii bandura

Delicious options for everyone, including vegetarians and vegans. They also have gluten-free bread from New Cascadia!

Michael Hidalgo

Dog friendly, order at the counter with a fun if unique atmosphere (cartoon wonderland with just a . . .hint of happy tree friends) burgers with gluten free options and frozen treats

Augustina Elizabeth (#lifeofauggie)

They have a lot of gluten-free options on the menu which is great! I had the shrimp and grits and it was delicious. The staff was super friendly and very attentive. They had a really good cocktail menu and the portions were very generous.

Sheila Ongie

We went for brunch today for the first time, expecting a line and didn’t have to wait at all (2pm Saturday). Lots of options for a gluten free vegetarian. Can’t wait to go back - I’ll be dreaming of the potato pancake!

Michelle

Love Amanda and her crew at Grindhouse Coffee in North Portland. They have something for everyone. From gluten free cookies to the veggie and egg cups. The coffee is always amazing and the food is delicious and consistently good! ❤️

Loree Leonard (Beerbabe)

Great sports bar!! It is set up so you order at the bar. Food is then delivered to your table. Very organized and quick, perfect before U of P events. Pub food options with a bit of flair, homemade condiments. Vegi options and gluten-free are available. Daily food and drink specials are always worth trying🤗. Service is great, even put womens sports on the screens, when requested. Parking is a bit challenging, but usually can find an on the street spot. Has become our go-to before games.

Reuven Ballaban

Incredible food! The vegan pork belly is amazing and there are gluten free options too!

Carolyn Delgado

We LOVED this place! The food was absolutely delicious and the staff are so wonderful and kind. I love all of the accommodations available for vegan and gluten free diets, and had one of the best breakfast sandwiches and matcha lattes ever. We will definitely return whenever we’re in town.

Rheanon Koss

Live right around the corner and this is our go to sushi spot! Incredible staff, so pleasant and attentive! On top of the phenomenal service they have gluten free tempura which feels like such a treat. I also highly recommend chance of rain. If you’re on Mississippi you need to stop here!

Sydney McCarthy

Came here for the first time tonight and WOW this place is delicious! I’m not sure if their Pad Thai is normally gluten free or not but it was the best gluten free Pad Thai I’ve ever had!! I’m SOO happy to have came here as we now have a reliably delicious neighborhood spot! We got the white peach curry as well and it was amazing!

Jessica Beers

Native Bowl is a must-visit food cart! The food is absolutely amazing, with high-quality vegan options and plenty of gluten-free choices to cater to everyone. I've tried most of their bowls and can confidently say you can't go wrong with any of them. Each bowl is packed with delicious flavors and topped with their signature yummy sauces that really set them apart. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving tasty, plant-based meals!

Toni P

Love Jessicas cooking! Wed-Sun treat yourself to a Melt or Obligatory with Js famous goat hoof fries. Or if you’re lucky a special burger. Tell her T&J from Ecuador sent you Now serving gluten free buns.

Andyi Veruca

Great service (our waitress was in a walking cast, and kept my coffee full). Extensive menu with length specials board. Gluten free, vegetarian, and local foods options. A bit pricey for the neighborhood and design of the place, but would definitely go back.

r kennedy

The pizza is good, almost great, but not quite. The service was very good. The atmosphere was average. My only real complaint is the price. $30 for a 12" pizza is just more than I can justify. It would be nice if they offered a smaller pie for those eating alone, and a gluten free option would also be appreciated, so I could bring my wife. Only one beer on tap was also disappointing.

Eric Blanchard

They have great gluten free and dairy free choices. Fun atmosphere, and the cook/owner Simba is great.

Katie Weinberg

Service was great - very friendly and attentive. Outside seating available. Food is just okay. Potatoes were soft - I wish they had been crunchy. “Bakes eggs” means runny eggs. No gluten free options. The bacon was the best part.

Abbi Mueller

Two of Us is amazing! the best breakfast sandwich around, and such friendly and kind people. the gluten free bread is a wonderful substitute. I love coming back again and again!!
