Top 38 Gluten-Free Pet-Friendly Spots to Explore in Athens

Justin Stavish

Great vibes, super nice smaller space. The waitress Delaney was the perfect amount of friendly and attentive. Easily the best gluten free pizza, nice craft cocktails. Would highly recommend.

We just tried Maepole for the first time, and WOW!! Their slogan is so accurate: Healthy comfort food. Everything was delicious!! I had the braised cabbage with rice and tofu. AMAZING! The sauces were incredible and every menu item but one was gluten free. Inside atmosphere was a little standard, but the patio is lovely with all kinds of plants and flowers. We’re going back right away!

We enjoyed our meal at Clocked! They offered a gluten free bun. The fries aren't fried in a dedicated fryer making cross contamination possible for those with gluten allergies, but they were upfront and honest when I asked about it. The dining area is small but it has the Athens charm!

Camille Mashman

Absolutely excellent restaurant. Have been countless times in the past 5+ years and have had an outstanding experience every time. Especially appreciate that they offer an incredible experience even to gluten-free customers like myself.

Bailee Higley

Great Gluten Free buns! They can also make the fries gluten free. Yummy!

Morganne

Best gluten/dairy free option in town! Good vibes all around

Susan May

What a surprise! The grits are so good and creamy! Yum! I had eggs, smoked salmon with dill and cream cheese. I’m gluten free but my husband said the biscuits were so light and fluffy… he ate mine! Will visit again since there were so many good options on the menu.

I wanted this place to be so good. I have Celiac, so I was so looking forward to a good gluten free crust. Maybe if they had cooked it enough that the cheese was melted and the crust wasn’t soggy, it could have been ok…unless you count the fact that I won’t be able to get my rings off tomorrow because my hands are so swollen from the salt content. I ate two pieces because I was starving, but I threw the rest away. For $17 I expect WAY more. This was flat out inedible. I’m sincerely disappointed.

If you have allergies, they are not very careful. Got really sick here with gluten even though I told the cashier that I was highly allergic to gluten. She assured me they took the necessary precautions, yah no, got super sick! Glad it's not a life threatening allergy.

Best pozole in Georgia. Lots of gluten free options

Ordered the Super Sub - Giant, with Onions, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Red Wine Vinegar, Olive Oil Blend, Oregano, Salt, Mayo, Banana Peppers, and, unfortunately, Udi's Gluten Free bread. Since my bout with COVID, I have developed a disturbing sensitivity to gluten. I'm hoping it will pass, because I like bread, but the nausea is frequently unbearable. So, I thought I should try the gluten free bread. It resembles bread only in appearance. Imagine the flavor of a stale baguette constructed from wood pulp and sawdust. It isn't chewy, it is chalky. The sandwich's toppings were perfectly acceptable, but the Udi's gluten free bread is inedible.

I've eaten here a number of times, and the staff is always incredibly helpful and kind! The process is smooth and the atmosphere is really relaxed in a clean, modern style. It's a nice lunch spot to meet a friend or two, but I don't think it's set up for large groups. The outside space is also really great whenever it's warmer weather! Right now they have "flannel Fridays" where you and a friend can go together, both wear flannel, and get two bowls for the price of one. It's a really great deal! It's excellent for difficult dietary restrictions, although my Celiac husband hasn't braved it yet since cross contamination is such a big concern with Celiac. If you're gluten intolerant or just a brave Celiac, I could see this being a great place to try! All other dietary restrictions I can think of seem easy to accommodate here. If it bothers you that a restaurant has any nuts at all, be advised that peanuts are in a few of the bowls. My best friend is allergic and has no issues, but you know what's best for your own needs.

We made a special trip to try Jinya and we're so glad we did. They offer a gluten free option for noodles which was the reason for giving it a try. The waitress was super friendly, attentive without being overbearing, and offered guidance when she learnt it was our first visit. The food was incredible and well worth the drive. There was a small issue with my daughter's meal which we brought to the waitress's attention. She and the the gentleman in the restaurant overwhelmed me with their caring responsiveness. While we weren't able to finish our lunch, we are definitely looking forward to going back to give it another try. Great food and atmosphere are a big part of it but it's the excellent service and demonstration of inclusion and acceptance that made us decide we want to go back.

So happy to find out his gem. Tasty and quick. Have gluten free options. Had chicken Korma which was very creamy and well balanced. The chicken was very tender. Will come back.

My third time here and I’m never disappointed!! Cozy, warm atmosphere both inside or outside. Here on a rainy Friday at 5:30, having a coffee and a delicious gluten-free almond apricot tart in a candle-lit booth while I do some work on my computer.

Joseph Brewington

We absolutely adore this place! The moment you step in, you can feel the warm energy and the love and care that goes into everything they do. The menu may be small, but it packs a punch. The execution is always top-notch, and the cocktails are beautifully crafted. The staff is fantastic, and the interior design is thoughtful. The patio is a lovely addition, with heaters and party lights. We also appreciate the inclusion of vegan and gluten-free options on the menu. Overall, we love everything about this place!

Loved their food always!! Chicken tarragon is my favorite. They also have gluten free pita chips.

Emma Chandler

My student organization had Dawg Gone Good BBQ cater a staff appreciation lunch and it was perfect! Not only was it reasonable, but everyone (including vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy free individuals) had something tasty to eat! The owner (BJ) and staff were super friendly and responsive. I highly recommend considering Dawg Gone Good BBQ catering!

I forgot to take a picture before destroying my dish! Our family really likes this place and one fried rice bowl can easily feed 2-3 kids. Very helpful for our large family. Also have really good gluten free options for my wife.

Kenzie Winther

Delicious. Good Athens staple for sure. I was pleasantly surprised as it takes a lot to impress me for brunch. I was torn with what to get but went with the sausage grit bowl. And the flavor was on point. They even let me switch out the biscuit for fruit since I am gluten free. Very reasonable pricing too.

Ashley Williamson

I ordered online for pickup Sunday night. My pizza was almost done when I arrived all of the employees were attentive and professional (hard to find in young employees these days) and I was in and out in 3 minutes. THANK YOU for having gluten free. Both pizza were cooked to perfection and delicious. Killer is easily my number one choice for pizza now.

They advertise gluten free bowls, but then put their contaminated gloves into the bins to retrieve toppings. If you have Celiac or a Wheat allergy do not eat here.

Megan Weich

This place is great! The atmosphere and the food are 10/10 and the service was great and everyone was so nice. I have a gluten allergy and they were able to accommodate everything!

Ashley Williamson

Austin was incredible!! My chicken was great and funny enough reminded me of Punta Cana which I read have the same owners. Make the chicken and grilled veggies like Punta and you’re on the money. The mashed potatoes need salt, as did my husband’s steak. No noted gluten free like Punta. GF rolls would be amazing! The ice cream and turtle cheesecake are delish! Music is a bit loud but overall it’s a nice atmosphere.

Babz Hall

Excellent service! Very considerate allergy and gluten-free protocols in place. I appreciate the amount of effort these folks went to to ensure I could eat what we ordered. Above and beyond. Very happy, thanks!

Gabriela Prat

Great customer service! Got our smoothies quick and had some great conversations during the wait, will definitely be coming back! They also had a variety of gluten free, dairy free, and plant based options!

Patricia Lee

Fantastic staff, top-notch pizza, and Miriah in the kitchen is amazing. Try the gluten-free crust Pizza. GO Dawgs!

Sunshine

Great food and service. The gluten free bread option is delicious for the Veggie. The ginger ale is perfect and not too sweet. The house fries are like mini potato wedges and they were delicious as well. No ketchup needed. I will be back!
