Top 25 Gluten-Free Pasta Havens Across Alberta

Natalie Spisak

This is a negative review directly related to how hot cross buns were being displayed & arranged. The buns were stacked on top of each other & squashed like pancakes. Like so many folks with celiac I have to eat GF otherwise suffer the consequences which can be very severe. I commented to the staff member running the till about the hot cross buns all being squashed & asked if there were any in the back that were not squashed. She blinked at me like a troll from Frozen with a completely lost & confused expression & whispered no. Life is very expensive & this made me sad. I bought hot cross buns from a grocery store for the rest of my family and even those were sad in my eyes but they were not squished. Packaged in a recyclable box measuring 6.5cm in height. I measured kinnikinnicks to find that at the highest point was just over 2cm!! That's not even an inch!! The highest point! I know the person working the till is just staff likely being paid minimum wage (which is another hill to die on) but is it too much to ask for no squished hot cross buns!?!? I would ask that we all take a bit more pride in our jobs, no matter the job, & please be a bit more thoughtful. Can you please arrange baked goods in a way that will not ruin the product? This is sad. If I was the owner I'd be embarrassed.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Path Plant Based Metaphysical Café is truly a treasure in every sense of the word. Their food is always delicious, but what sets them apart is the incredible care and thoughtfulness they show toward their customers. Recently, I asked if they could make their gluten-free nuts and bolts mix—a seasonal favorite of mine—and they joyfully agreed, even though they no longer focus exclusively on gluten-free offerings. When I picked it up, they mentioned they had trouble sourcing some ingredients and had to improvise, but they still put so much love into making it. They even gifted it to me, which was such an unexpected and heartwarming gesture. This kindness turned my entire day around. It reminded me how special this café is, not just for their food (which is amazing—I even got to enjoy one of their gluten-free pretzels, my favorite!), but for the heart they pour into everything they do. If you’re looking for a place with tasty plant-based treats and a team of people who genuinely care, The Path is the place to be. Thank you for always going the extra mile and for being such a blessing to your community!

Gluten free baking. The sub buns are my number one reason for going here but the baguette I bought today made three really amazing sandwiches. I highly suggest going here and helping to support this thriving little business. I also ate a cinnamon bun, it was decent.

Picked up a gluten free lunch today, $30 for 1 meal is kinda ridiculous. I got pasta with the burger and it was an added $8 up charge to get a small portion of gross pasta. The pasta was horrible, very clearly reheated (not well) and definitely a day or 2 old. I could have made Kraft dinner that tasted better than their barely reheated pasta. I don’t know if they changed chefs but their pasta used to be amazing. Very disappointing

Simply a great meal made even better by a stellar serving experience from Olly. She was running the entire front when we got there and did an amazing job of getting our orders and food in a timely manner while still taking care of all the tables! My Rundle Mountain Breakfast was amazing value, and my celiac partner had the Gluten Free French Toast and says it was incredible too. Highly recommend coming here for brunch if you're in Banff!

Came for supper, love that they offer gluten free options as we have a Celiac family member. Super busy, prime time to eat and was Family Day. Our waitress was super busy but still had a smile on her face and was very pleasant. Food was really good. Only drawback is the tight quarters, tables and people are packed in every tightly.

After roaming the area in search of a gluten-free late dinner, we googled and found this restaurant suggestion. We started with a ceasar salad (9.5/10, the capers were a perfect, salty touch) and a pomodoro fromagio gluten-free pizza. The mozzarella is gooey and thick, the tomato sauce really balanced tangy and sweet with basil, the crust offered a chewy dough and crispy edge. 9/10

I had a great time at the restaurant, great tunes, great service. I'm gluten-free so I ordered a gluten-free pizza. While it was delicious, I did end up having a reaction. 😮‍💨 So gluten-free peeps, be careful.

My wife and I had their Sunday Brunch this morning. The staff was very accommodating and offered great options for lactose intolerance and gluten sensitivity. The presentation is well done, and the food and service are excellent!

The Swoldier

The butter chicken and rice tasted very good! I would highly recommend ordering it, the restaurant has lots of gluten free options so that is a plus. Portion sizes could be larger for the price, but overall very good.

Ordered the Fettuccine with Truffle Cream Sauce—loved the flavors, and they were great about accommodating my customization request! I was especially impressed with our server, Oksana—she was so thoughtful and sweet, even bringing me gluten-free bread without me asking. Thank you!

We ordered takeout on a Sunday when we were all exhausted and I was so glad we did! Stephanie provided excellent service with a big, bright smile. My husband and I got wings, salad and gluten-wise pizza bread (soooo tasty!!) and our son got his favourite bugs and cheese. All of the food was delicious and the portion size was excellent. I also enjoy how many gluten-wise options there are to choose from!

I had a rather frustrating experience at this location today. I have a gluten allergy and specifically called ahead to verify there were multiple menu items that I would be safe to eat. Over the phone I was assured there were many options. When I was there today with a group of friends, I found out my options were extremely limited. My server did do her diligence to check what would be available for me and it was suggested the artichoke and spinach dip. She then returned apologizing saying that the chips that came with it were not actually gluten friendly. In the end all I ended up with was a salad. The salad was tasty, but the options available were very disappointing when I specifically called to verify, and then to be told I could have something, then told wait no, never mind was frustrating. If you are celiac I would be cautious about dining here.

Simon Young

Phenomenal experience. The food was beyond fantastic, service was impeccable, the whole dinner was perfect. I'm celiac and the selection of gluten free options was excellent, I had the carbonara with gluten free pasta and it was incredible. Truly worth a visit.

Eduardo Ismael Montemayor Castillo

Absolutely wonderful place that felt very cozy. The waitress was so attentive and kind. Her recommendations were on point and the freebie items of the bison tartar and the carrot and chive biscuit were delicious. The chef has made it so that most of the menu is gluten free, which I think is pretty cool. The bison striploin was scrumptious and to die for. They do have a plant based option on the lentil meatloaf which I thought was pretty well seasoned and very delicious. The desserts were out of this world! The goat cheese cheesecake with blackberries was so good that it tasted like an elevated version of an Oreo cheesecake. And the creme brule of the day was spoon-licking good. Overall, it is a place that you have to visit and have a dinner at least once! It's pretty romantic too, so bring your date!

Booked the back room for my kids school band trip and they hosted and fed 70 people very well and everyone loved the food, especially those who wanted gluten free options.

Sarah Rieger

This place is great for celiacs and the staff are so friendly!

William Bennett

Stopped in for lunch with my partner. It had been a while since our last visit to the Lacombe location, but the service and food were just as amazing as before. Our server was incredibly pleasant. The atmosphere, cuisine, and service were all fantastic. Kudos to the C&C team!

Kris McMahon

Went to this place with a friend specifically for gluten free drinks and food they advertised. After pointing to every gf tagged item on the menu and told "no sorry that can't be made gluten free" we paid our bill and left.

Gluten-free wings, several meal options, I usually get the chicken club sandwich and gluten-free brownie!
