The staff are SO friendly and the food is SO delicious! Heaven for celiacs. A lovely place for a casual meal or a sweet gluten-free snack.

Kade Lentz

So nice to be able to enjoy vegan and gluten free treats without worrying. So many different flavors.

This place is awesome! Been here a few times now and everything holds up. Portions are huge. Even the tea they serve you isn't in tiny cups and a kettle; I got 3 full cups out of it. Their menu is 95% gluten free, I've taken my celiac girlfriend here twice and she loves it! Only thing is their water is not free, it comes in cans and is 75cents but I was happy with my tea. Love coming here!

Matt Mistruzzi

Great gluten free menu…. Tons of selection… Definitely recommend… 👍

Whole menu is gluten free! Amazing crepes made with local produce. Quick to arrive and they were delicious

Stumbled upon this place as we were visiting the area from Toronto. I loved that everything was GF. A lot of dairy free options as well! The food was fresh, minimal ingredients and my stomach felt great after. We tried the breakfast platter, London fog latte, and a few DF/GF pastries that were delicious! Highly recommend the crème brûlée! I haven’t had one since my gluten/dairy intolerance and I was in heaven! I purchased a few more for the road. They also had a Mother’s Day high tea which was so cool because I haven’t found a gluten free high tea place in Toronto. We hope to be back next time we are in the area and would love to try high tea.

❤️so many GF options. Knowledgeable, friendly staff.

Neil Pegram

Night service and a great variety of delicious gluten-free things!

Spencer Clerk

Great food, really friendly and welcoming service. I feel very safe and at ease bringing my celiac mother here, as well. It’s such good peace of mind to be able to trust that a place can serve celiac friendly food.

As someone who has to eat dairy and gluten free, it is hard to find a great meal in a restaurant that isn't some sort of compromise of an existing menue item. Not here! Most of the meals are gluten and dairy free without any compromise in flavor! In fact, everything we ate was delicious and well priced. Service was also amazing. It is a place I will come back to frequently in my stay here. Thank you Nourish!

Michael March

A fun little Cafe, with plenty of gluten free options. Impromptu seating. There is an upstairs area also.

Aaron Shenkman

It really breaks my heart to be leaving this 1 star review. Evans is usually incredible, with the best fish and chips in town. HOWEVER, last time we ordered from them the fish had gone bad. We called to let them know, and the person on the phone assured us that he had taken down our information and that our next order of the same dishes would be free. Today when we placed our order, we were told that they had no record of that conversation, and that at most they could comp us one of the dishes. We pushed back, saying that it's not our fault that their co-worker didn't properly note our information (and they also noted that they'd just changed their system over, so it might have gotten lost in the shuffle). In the end, we were left to pay for bad fish last month with no compensation from the restaurant. We're all for supporting a great local business, so this situation sucks. We order from Evan's every month and have easily spent thousands there over the past five years. It's a shame to have to find another gluten free fish and chips place now.

Horrendous experience. We recently heard that this restaurant could cater to those with Celiac disease. So we gave it an go today!! Everyone was excited. After asking repeatedly to confirm everything is gluten free and free from cross contamination, before/during/after, we were assured it was. My 10 year old is now violently ill. I might point out that it was 2:00pm when dined and we were the only table there. All any parent of a child with Celiac asks is that a restaurant is just honest on whether they can guarantee gluten free food and possibility of cross contamination (within reason). If you can’t, we’ll bring something with us!! The severity of the reaction my son experiences is always in proportion to the amount gluten he ingests. If it’s a slight cross contamination, it’s usually a couple trips to the toilet to vomit, bit of Tylenol then he’s good. The severity of this particular attack tells me it was direct ingestion of wheat. We’re moments away from going to the hospital. To the waitress that served us and the owner of this establishment…shame on you. I wish you were here watching my child experience the effects of your neglect. Watching your child suffer like this is heartbreaking. While I’m on it…the service was terrible too. Seeing as how we were the only table in the place, why did I have to go to the bar to tell her we were ready to order, again to order a drink, then again to ask for the bill. The Canadian guilt in me still left a 15% tip. Regret that now. Edit to this post after the fact…Owner contacted me and refunded money. Offered up apology. He did clarify that food is prepared in same kitchen so avoidance of cross contamination cannot be guaranteed. He said staff are supposed to tell the customers this. He’s committed to retraining and educating.

It's wonderful to have access to a safe and delicious gluten free fish & chips in the city. Anglr offers beautifully deep-fried flourless goodness, with multiple side offerings to keep you coming back. I was really impressed with the onion rings and yam fries, and would definitely order them again. The service was very friendly, and I'm looking forward to stopping by again!

Allison Pellegrini

This is one of my favourite hidden gems in Kelowna. I don’t normally eat seafood or much fish. But this place changed that for me. The fish they bring in is so fresh and of such high quality. The batter is so thin and crispy. It’s also gluten free. The cod and halibut are my favourites. The tartar sauce is amazing. The coleslaw is one of my favs also. The service is excellent. They also serve wine and beers and cocktails. The happy hour has many great choices. A definite must try in Kelowna.

As someone with multiple dietary restrictions, I really appreciate how clear and easy to navigate Virtue Bakery is. No guessing games, everything is labeled, and the staff behind the counter genuinely understand the ingredients. It is refreshingly straightforward without ever compromising on flavour. Their offerings include all gluten-free, and a variety of dairy-free, egg-free, and low-sugar baked goods, catering to a wide range of folks. They do have nuts on-site, goodies share a display case, however whatever is labelled as nuts has nuts in it and other stuff doesn't. A rare gem for those of us with dietary restrictions! I love the df lavender brownie and df banana bread.

Paul Cooper

Super coffee and gluten free cake options

Emily R

Completely separate prep area, fryer, etc. Celiac safe :) So many choices for GF dishes, and great!

Sophie Gagnon

Super nice little cafe. Lots of choice: bowl, wrap... Vegan/gluten-free option. Good portion! To visit during your stay in Canmore.

Ashley Stillwell

One of the most enjoyable meals I have had in a LONG time. I have been to Greece before, and authentic Greek food is one of my absolute favorites. That being said, it is extremely hard to find a restaurant in North America that comes even close to an authentic Greek experience. So stepping inside the doors of Kasbah was a very magical and nostalgic meal for me. Everything about it screamed “authentic”. From the atmosphere to the items on the menu (some which I haven’t seen on a menu since I was actually in Athens), everything was incredible. A simple Greek salad turned into pure magic. And the souvlaki made me happy from the corners of my mouth to the tips of my toes. To top it off, the menu is mostly gluten free (or could be modified to be gluten free), and they handled my allergies to both soy and gluten with ease and grace. We were only visiting the area, but this is a meal I will be dreaming about for years. It’s almost worth the 20-hour drive.. 😏 If you get a chance, try it. You won’t regret it. Hats off to our waitress Cassidy! She took such wonderful care of us, and we just loved her!

Sara Piepgrass

The staff are great! The food is always delicious and gluten free!! Love it.

Sara & Liz

100 % Gluten free! So many delicious taco options!

Steve S

We were at a nearby hotel and found this amazing spot. Nearly everything on the menu is/can be gluten free. We tried the arancini and the grilled cheese and fries. Everything was delicious. We sat at the bar and had excellent and attentive service. Don't pass up this gem.

Maddie Milner

Adorable cafe with a small selection of food and a great selection of treats! My friend was craving pasta at a good price, so this is where we went. I tried one of their paninis and it was so delicious! I love that they also have gluten-free options for another friend I was traveling with. The staff was all so kind as well! Support this business!

John Pacheco

Loved this place!! The best part almost everything on the menu was gluten free! Highly recommend

Ali Crossley

Absolutely fantastic. Quick service and amazing gluten free options on menu….you wouldn’t even know it was vegan ;) the Kalimari is a absolute game changer!

Andrea Griesinger

The gluten-free apple fries were so good. The owner made them fresh while I waited. She was so friendly. 10/10 recommend even if you don’t need a gluten free place. It’s a short walk from the cruise ship port

Lana Fedora

In heaven. Most items are or can be made safe for celiac. Had the Yum Bowl…sooooo good. The best part though? GLUTEN FREE ONION RINGS. They were just incredible. If you’re able, come down and chow down. It’s definitely worth it.

Brit Gracka

Absolutely stellar experience at JWW! The owner was one of the most jovial food truck owners I’ve ever encountered and immediately made my fiancé and I feel welcomed as celiac diners. Jimmy was quick to ease our fears about CC and went above and beyond to offer our little pup an ice cream treat while we waited. We ordered several things off the menu for takeout including the corn dog, chicken club, chicken dinner and fries. We immediately drove it over to my parent’s place for lunch and it travelled beautifully (didn’t go soggy or cold). We were over the moon with the taste and texture and have raved about it to all our family and friends ever since (GF and non GF folk alike) because you absolutely can’t tell the difference. Thank you for catering to celiacs, a growing group of customers often dismissed/overlooked in the food space, and we can’t wait to dine with you again!

Carolyn Nichol

So impressed to find a place that cares about the ingredients they use for the health and well being of their clients. LOVE that they are gluten free and have vegan options. Take out, or sit down that doesn't set your health back is what Toronto needs more of, and this company has it!

Karmen Johnson

Called to place a take out order. Staff was very nice and friendly. We were given a very accurate time that our food would be ready. Four of us ordered four different meals and we were all very happy, especially my daughter who cannot eat gluten. It was so nice to not have to worry about any gluten cross contamination.

Matt

We had a great experience at omni. Extremely safe for celiacs. Everything on the menu can be made gluten free and anything they put in their deep fryer is naturally gluten free (rice flour). Huge plus for no fryer cross contamination! They had about 4 gluten free canned beers to choose from and we loved the fried Cajun honey chicken wings. Waitresses were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. We will be back!

Tonya Vardy

We had a group of 7 people including 1 with Celiac Disease. The wait staff was very attentive, the food and service was fantastic. Will definitely return

Karen B

Great food. Good gluten free options that were clearly labelled on the menu.

Rachel Loerts

The service was friendly and fast, and it was a cute little pub. Very clean and cute decorations. The lunch menu had very few gluten-free options. Their burgers have gluten in the patty (but this information was not available online when I checked beforehand), so I couldn't have a burger, which is usually something you can count on being gluten-free at a pub. I got the spinach with chick pea pancake. It was really good, but not very filling, especially given the price.

Kate S

Love the gluten free options. The quality is a little variable. Sometimes great, sometimes meh.

Nikita Crane

Lots of GF celiac safe goodies my personal fav is the turtle cheesecake. You can also buy their products at Save On Foods frozen. Such a cute little bookshop and cafe but always packed!

Brenda Gibson

How lovely to find a place that is entirely gluten free!! Also vegan and sugar free. The meals were delicious, the desserts were ok. All quite pricey but I guess that's the cost of fresh and healthy.

Vittal Narayanan

Amazing food, lovely ambiance. really loved the vegan version of chilly chicken and the best was gluten free chapati.

Alice Trombley

Thank you for making pizza that I can actually eat that tastes amazing. Finding a gluten-free/dairy-free pizza that doesn’t taste like chemicals and sadness is a true feat. ❤️

Joel Desjardins

Mel’s Diner offers a classic diner experience with friendly staff, good food, and a retro vibe. We came at 9:30 on a Sunday and had a 20-minute wait for a table to open for 5 people, which felt like a reasonable wait time. There was counter seating available for smaller groups. We ordered quite a lot of food, and all of it was pretty good— nothing life-changing but a good, solid diner breakfast, with surprisingly good coffee. I typically find diner coffee to be pretty underwhelming. Mel’s menu also caters well for vegan and gluten-free people, which is something a lot of diners and breakfast places are missing. Mel’s has been around for a long time, and it makes sense why good food at reasonable prices with something for everyone on their menu.

Sandra Roy

Always delicious and lots of gluten-free options 😋

Mariah Sobey

best tacos and all gluten free!!

Peter Kerr

It's a sports bar, busy and loud during happy hour. Great food and plenty of options for my partner with celiac disease (who is very concerned about cross contamination and staff are knowledgable)

Jamie Potter

We were here from Ontario, and read that they served gluten free burgers and fries (my wife and son both have Celiac Disease). They were delicious!! Best burger and fries they've had, and my other two sons and I both loved our non gluten free burgers too. We all liked everything so much we came back a second time during our visit! Excellent and friendly service. Highly recommend!

Sareela Ramcharan

Had a great time catching up with my bestfriend here. She is Celiac and wanted to try this place out for quite a while. We both ordered the Chicken Fajita Poutine. It was really tasty and really healthy. I got a special drink called "Rachael's Tears" which was a mix of earl grey tea and chai, with their sheep's milk. It was absolutely delicious. My bestfriend got the matcha organic tea and she loved it. Care and thought is put into everything here. They offer so many health friendly products and foods. They also had a fridge with fresh local produce. Lots of parking in the front. It is not wheelchair accessible, and does not have a washroom on the premises.

Amy Robertson

If you have celiac disease I do not recommend you eat here. To the owner, please review celiac and cross contamination with your staff and double check ingredients/labeling/storage/prep areas. My partner was glutened last night after the staff member assured him both the fish and chips and onion rings were gluten free and cooked in a dedicated fryer. He isn’t the only one that’s had an issue here either so something isn’t right. We know he takes a risk every time he eats out but please review your protocols. We had heard such good reviews from other celiacs and sadly he was super sick because of it. Food was delicious but not safe!
