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

Elliott Franklin

Love the local farm burgers. We have a gluten allergy and they always take great care of us. Highly recommend!

Virginia Munzel

Was informed that the gluten free pizza isn’t gluten free based on being celiac safe. They cook pizza in shared oven with no pan underneath. Everything else on the menu not sure.

Star U

FANTASTIC pizza and wings! I am a complete cocktail snob and thoroughly enjoyed both cocktails. Fourth time in, and many, many more to go. Hugely recommend if gluten free, baked wings and gluten free pizza are amazing in their own respect and compared to nongluten free

Tikva Peace

Delicious and fun pizza place with gluten free options

Barb Miller

My daughter found this place from a video posted online and wanted to try it. We both thought our food was really good and I loved the variety and the ability to get gluten free pasta.

Betsy Keller

Brian was an awesome server and the food was delicious. I eat gluten free and they have a gluten free menu!

Elliott Franklin

Hogwood BBQ is a gem! Their commitment to quality shines through with no HFCS and gluten-free options. The flavors are outstanding, and their homemade BBQ sauces (both spicy and sweet) are a must-try. The friendly service makes every visit enjoyable, and we even trusted them with our Thanksgiving turkey – it was incredible! Highly recommend for any BBQ lover!

Mr. Crepe literally made our trip to Nashville. It's a rarity to find gluten-free (allergy) sweet treats that aren't ice cream or gross, dense cakes. The staff was so friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. They cleaned off the surfaces and made us fresh gluten free crepes. And they were AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS. thank you Mr. Crepe for the great experience! We'd love to come back and try the savory crepes too.

I was excited to read that this place offered gluten free treats but after walking in and seeing the gluten free items directly beside the regular I did not feel safe to purchase and eat anything there. Cross contamination is highly likely. Eating gluten free is not a choice for many of us. Our bodies react adversely to gluten and makes us ill. To whomever the owner is: please consider placing the gluten free items in a separate area along with separate tongs and teach your employees about cross contamination and the need to change gloves for the safety and health of those who have to avoid it for health sake.

Rusty Graves

Very good Gluten-free options which is an allergy issue not choice for Gluten-free meals.

Victoria Grace

Disappointed and underwhelmed. I was really looking forward to dining at Perry’s, but unfortunately, the experience just didn’t live up to the hype. I ordered the Chicken Primavera and was shocked when it arrived without any chicken—just spaghetti squash and vegetables. No explanation, no heads-up—just missing the main part of the dish. I’m also gluten-free and was told they’d be bringing out a gluten-free loaf, which sounded great... until a single slice of toasted white bread showed up. One slice. The service also left a lot to be desired. Our server was inattentive and hard to find throughout the meal, which just added to the overall frustration. For the price and reputation, I expected so much more. Definitely not the experience I was hoping for.

Brittany Black

This place is a little slice of heaven with healthy, fresh food, tasteful island vibes and exemplary service to match! The only thing we regret about eating here is that we can't bring the restaurant back to Ohio with us! In our visit to Franklin TN this place was absolutely a favorite and so conclusive to gluten free, no seed oils etc. The staff was so pleasant and uplifting and the food was seriously delicious! We so enjoyed hanging out on the back patio. The fish was amazing, loved the flight of frozen drinks and dessert. SO good, please open another in Dayton, OH!

James Patton

This place is underrated and a hidden gem. The cowboy arepa was excellent, meat was perfect, flavor was phenomenal, and unlike some arepas I’ve had in the past, this one was not too greasy My wife got the empanada plate and absolutely loved it; they can also accommodate gluten free/celiac We will for sure be back here!

Cheryl Jones

Apparently the focus is on profit over quality. One of my favorite items was the liver pate’ which was served in a jar with a side of pickled veggies and toast. Now it’s the equivalent of one chicken liver spread on 4 pieces of bread. If you are not into eating mostly cheap gluten carbs ie pizza, pasta, bread choose a better restaurant. So sad to loose another restaurant to budget cuts & unhealthy options. Italian doesn’t have to be only empty carbs. However,Alex was awesome!

Zoltan V

A hidden gem. Almost everything is dedicated gluten free minus the naan bread (check other random bread items)

Vickie Meseke

Love that they are so attune to dietary needs! Gluten Free@

Redonda Homesley

Their food was really good! I ordered my burger on the gluten-free bun, it came out warm and soft.

Mandy Johnson

I met a few friends for our monthly dinner here and it was so good! We had to wait a few for a table, but it's a small space and we had a party of 5. We had dinner and drinks, and everything was wonderful! I even had a lavender old fashioned, and it was so good! I am usually not a fan of people messing with the old fashioned, but they did a good job here. The happy hour special on Wednesday is pretty good, so you should give it a go. I also love how much can be made gluten friendly. Lots of their no gluten symbol on the menu plus GF bread for all the sandwich and burger options.

Ruby Jenkins

Great atmosphere and a wide variety of food that was all delicious. They offer Gluten Free and Vegan options as well. We really enjoyed our dinner.

Heidi Prince

The new owners Angela and Jesse are amazing! We had such a great experience with honestly such amazing food. The food is so fresh and they were so accommodating with me being gluten free. This is definitely our new favorite spot. Great food, great people and great experience!

Rosamargarita Mendoza

Exceptional experience! Tyler, the manager, went above and beyond to accommodate my gluten and dairy intolerance. His assistance in navigating the menu was invaluable. The French toast with gluten-free bread became my new favorite. Outstanding service and delicious options – definitely a 5-star experience!

Tess Ricci

We came here for a birthday celebration, and we were so impressed! The Mahi Mahi was lovely, and so was the pork! I wasn't terribly blown away by the red beans and rice, but since it's just a side, it didn't really affect my experience. Gluten Free items are clearly marked on the menu, and the staff takes allergies very seriously, which I greatly appreciated. There aren't too many options, probably 3 entrees, 3 sides, and 2 salads, but what they do offer is very nice.

Jadyn Heinrichs

They made a mistake when I ordered and didn’t realize they were out of what I wanted, but were so graceful in getting me another meal on them and refunded me immediately. 10/10 customer service, great food and gluten free options, super cute inside and out. Awesome casual atmosphere but are professional and efficient.

Our first visit to North Italia today was fantastic. They are now in our "return soon and potential favorites" column. They are right on our way home from church in Middle Tennessee. I had the best avocado toast I've ever eaten, hands down. Factoring in, "you get what you pay for" and this toast was 50% higher in cost than any previous avocado toast I've eaten, I would expect it to be better. Counter balance the cost with experiencing a perfectly smoked slab of salmon on the avocado toast for the first time and i know that this is a delicious meal worth repeating. Alyce loved her salad. North Italia clearly gives a great deal of thought into their recipes and presentation. At least they did for the two entrees we had. I told Alyce that it's too bad we couldn't share these entrees the next time we come because I enjoyed the creative variety of flavors in her salad, but Alyce can't stand fish of any sort. Having a new confidence in their salads, she suggested that we should try another kind of salad and their gluten free pizza to share next time. Looking forward to that. It takes two or three outstanding meals over a relatively short period of time (a year or so) for us to add any restaurant to our personal favorites.

Lisa Mayberry

Didn't start off on the right foot when we had 6pm reservations and they didn't have a table ready for us until 40 minutes later. Had a drink at the bar and the cocktails were fantastic. They made up for the wait quickly by having appetizers come out immediately on the house. My steak was cooked perfectly and the salad was delicious. The menu has gluten sensitive items marked beside them.

Israa Gaugler

If there are endless stars ⭐️ I would make. This is by far the best ever First Watch and healthy restaurant ever. I have never written a review, but when you see how fantastic and dedicated the staff are, you must take the time to thank and appreciate. The staff is not only once or twice nice, they are constantly amazing, attentive and super motivated to get your order just perfect. I have both gluten and diary allergies, they cook my dish is special part of the kitchen. It tastes amazing 🤩 This is the best First Watch restaurant ever, I have tried Brentwood (horrible service) and Smyrna (good). Please give this restaurant and the staff a big applause 👏 thank you so much for being so kind and gentle. We love you guys and will be coming every Saturdays and Sundays 😘❤️😘👋 you make our weekend full of happiness and positive energy.

I am officially obsessed with this place. I went to a wreath making class a few days ago and fell in love with the owners, concept, and the lovely location. I had the best chocolate chip cookies I've ever had in my life, and I believe they were gluten-free! Even the drip coffee was yummy! I can't wait to go back.

Tarra McCall

Every experience with Clean Juice is a 5-star experience. The entire staff is quick, and very accommodating for my celiac daughter. The smoothies , açaí bowls and sandwiches are amazing! Thanks, Clean Juice Cool Springs!!!

Nancy Little

The ONLY thing good here was the pizza. The trashcan by the front door was overflowing! We came at 11 am so there is no reason for this! Walking into the foyer the mat has not been vaccumed in days! There was no employee to greet us nor a sign directing to seat ourselves. The menu was beyond sticky. They have done away with the lunch special so I was stuck paying the dinner price! Went to the restroom and after I washed my hands I found out they had no paper towels! STAY AWAY! Apparently they have stopped caring! And very little Gluten Free choices so my husband just skipped eating .

Mike Lenda

Definitely our favorite burger. Always fresh, friendly and clean. Fries are also just awesome - my favorite is the lettuce wrapped, perfect for those of us who are gluten-free.

Janet Duncan

I eat healthy Vegan, gluten-free and organic with very little sugar, BrickTop was accommodating for me. The service was excellent!

John Corn

Our favorite restaurant, period. Great gluten free and dietary sensitivity, wonderful dishes, good atmosphere. Handles larger families well. Unfortunately this time the appetiser and entrees were served almost simultaneously making enjoying the appetiser difficult. Truffle fries are exquisite.

Anna Hughes

As a gluten-free person, I loved The Honeysuckle! They were well informed, and made sure my dinner was safe and delicious. The flour-less crab cake made me want to lick the plate, and the steak I had was cooked perfectly. I'd go back again for sure.

These sandwiches are nothing to joke about. They have always left me satisfied and smiling. Gluten free bread is always a plus, too!

Gresham Hill

Blue Coast provides our family with lots of gluten and dairy free options; a requirement due to our diverse food issues. We love the pineapple salsa and the self serve drinks and salsa bar.

Tried the new taco spot in Cool Springs. Several gluten free options to build your own tacos clearly marked on the menu. Even tasty fire seasoned hard shells. Aqua frescas were very tasty as well, many flavors to choose from.

Tamilee Espinosa

Gluten free cupcake was on point and the barista was very knowledgeable

Tara Wilhelm

Located on Hillsboro Road in the Grassland area of Franklin, Tennessee, this restaurant has a hometown feel. They have good food, cookies/pastries, coffee, and tea. They have breakfast and lunch items on the menu. I had the blt on gluten free sourdough bread for lunch. You get your choice of chips or frozen ambrosia as a side with each sandwich. The seating is an eclectic mix of tables and chairs. The restroom is not handicap accessible because you have a couple stairs to go up.

Patrick Conley

No gluten free menu. They put bread crumbs in the spicy tuna?! Kikkoman soy sauce is garbage. They do have real soy sauce if you ask. So close to 5 stars!

Lisa Parker

We went for lunch and I had the apple salad. It was delicious. Our waitress was very attentive. They did not have many gluten free dishes but the one (gluten free dish) I had was great.

Sweet Pea

Mocha with Almond/Coconut milk was delicious!! Try the gluten free blueberry muffins. Nice atmosphere

Samantha Brady

Thanks to Trevor he saved me from eating gluten tonight! He did his due diligence and double checked the menu to avoid a total disaster for me later! He made a great recommendation on the tomato basil soup though. Thanks !

Danielle Rolfe

I love this place! I go there often. I eat gluten free and they have many options. Chicken is fresh, tender and not fatty. Teriyaki sauce is delicious!! They have a great app that you get rewards quick! Clean place. I’m glad it isn’t closer to my house or I would be going more! It’s one of my favorite places to eat!!

Lisa Mayberry

Delicious cocktails like their margaritas and palomas. Gluten free options such as bibb lettuce wrapped tacos. I have tried all of their street tacos but prefer the pork belly the most. Outdoor seating on their patio for a nice lunch or dinner. There are heaters for colder weather. Finish off your meal with their signature soppapillas and honey(not gf btw).

Tiffany Clark

I am plant based and the veggie shack was very good! I did have to order it without the cheese, sauce, and crispy onions and ordered it with a gluten free bun, but it was delicious. The fries were great and the dairy free chocolate shake was amazing!

Rachel Lydy

Very allergy friendly! The manager brought out our gluten free sushi. So delicious! Also great happy hour.

Joy M. Salasin

We love this place! I frequent this location with either my kids, for date night, or solo, either for dine-in or takeout. We eat a gluten free and vegan diet, and there is plenty for us to eat on the menu. Great prices, food, and staff all around.

Veronica Peters

Great food. Digging the GLUTEN FREE options. Gluten free veggie pizza is always delish
