Top 50 Gluten-Free Pet-Friendly Spots to Explore in New Orleans

Egg, sausage, fruit and English muffin was delicious!

Diana Gonzalez

This place is amazing for celiac or gluten allergy. They have gluten-free vegan batter that is cooked in a separate area. I had the Pizza crepe ans the honey bunny both amazingly delicious. The owner was very nice and helpful. Definitely coming back!

My 7 year old daughter is a celiac. It’s not so easy to find glutenfree food for a celiac kid. Bit we were happy to find this place: my daughter took the glutenfree fried chicken with glutenfree waffles. She really liked the waffles also the chicken but it was a little bit to spicy for her. I took a glutenfree seafood Po boy and really enjoyed it. Even though I‘m not celiac the Po boy was delicious

Anthony Slaughter

The food was awesome! And Henry is the man! His recommendations were the selections that I went with and he took care of me with regard to my gluten allergy. I went with the red fish and it was so good. It was the perfect end to my 60th birthday celebration in the Big Easy.

You’d likely never know this adorable, plant-filled space on a block bearing a street name no one knows (that feels more like an alley) could be the best thing to happen to your week. Located directly across from one of the two U.S. Court of Appeals loading docks, this oasis quickly transports the diner to a country they may have never visited and may now want to visit immediately. This isn’t that “Mexican” place you have in your hometown that mostly serves to pacify the American palate. That isn’t to say it will feel unfamiliar or awkward; you may just realize excessive grease and cheese aren’t required for enjoyment of every item. With the exception of tortas (sandwiches) and a couple of desserts, everything is gluten-free. Not just in the “no-gluten-containing-ingredients” way you may find many places, but instead it’s an environment where staff are trained on cross-contamination (and where they have a dedicated frier). There are also numerous vegetarian and vegan options. Happy hour is 3-6 weekdays, and you’ll definitely leave happier. Then again, that’s kinda guaranteed anytime you visit. Do yourself a flavor 😉 and walk right on over from the streetcar or even the French Quarter. Should you take the ferry over here from Algiers? Well, I sure won’t discourage it! Come hungry, thirsty, and ready for your life (or at least taste buds) to be improved.

We went here specifically for gluten free food. The owner was there and super friendly. We ordered gluten free fried green tomatoes, shrimp, crayfish, catfish, pickles, and fries. The coating/breading was light and airy. We were the only ones in the restaurant. It was a little awkward, quiet, and dark.

Jordyn and Peter

Went on a Saturday so it was crowded but they found two seats together for us. The Southern BLT was delicious, especially the fried greens tomatoes. Wish the gluten-free items were posted more clearly on the printed menu.

Kyla

Shrimp and grits was delicious! Good service, good food, celiac friendly options, outdoor seating options

Gabe Szymarek

It was a busy morning and they said they couldn’t really handle the volume of people so cross contamination was difficult. I had the frittata (I knew I shouldn’t have) and got absolutely smacked by gluten. I’m sure this place is safe for gluten intolerances or allergies, I’d be cautious with celiac.

Charles Kuney

Been coming to Nola for Mardi Gras for the past three years running, and never miss a chance to eat at Another Broken Egg. Food is great, awesome gluten-friendly selection for us gluten-sensitive folk! Ask for Jenny!!

We love the gluten free and vegan options. Amazing pizza 🍕 😋

Amy Price

Chicken wings and Brussel sprouts are gluten-free but you need to be sure and let them know you have a gluten allergy

Jessica Mesa

Boris was a fantastic server! He helped me feel safe and cared for regarding my celiac dietary restrictions. The food was excellent and quick! Would definitely eat here again!

Beyza

As an Ethiopian, I can attest that this restaurant is definitely serving great quality authentic Ethiopian flavors! Great for vegetarians and gluten friendly. I can compare this food to the standard of my own family cooking. The waitress was also nice and knowledgeable in the dishes. Give it a try!

linda lester

Kay was probably one of the best servers I’ve ever had! I am Celiac and can’t have gluten. She took her time explaining all the breakfast options and I had the incredible gluten free French toast. The service from every person was excellent, the place is clean and friendly and all five of us had incredible meals!

Arielle Zionts

I have celiac disease and waiter Tony was extremely helpful in making sure the kitchen understood how to safely cook my food. The restaurant also plays great music.

Aaron

Was in town for one night. Was looking for a place that had gluten free and vegan options. I was not expecting to have one of the best meals i've had in a long while. The owner was very kind, friendly and accommodating, answered all of our questions about the menu. 10/10 would come back.

All Movens

I placed a take-out order for gluten-free pad thai. When I arrived, the system wasn't working properly and they had not received my order. The host took my order and apologized. It was ready in about 5 minutes, which was incredibly quick. The flavors were robust and very authentic. Thanks for the great food, service, and gluten-free options!

Matthew Hayden

I go here several times a week. Chili Avocado Toast on GF bread is a go to. Vegan scramble is great, too. Don’t miss out on the dirty lemonade! This is a great little local cafe with gf options available. I don’t have such a severe issue that I need to worry about cross contamination, so I can’t say that it’s celiac safe, but it works for me!

El Marie

This is one of my favorite restaurants as a celiac! The only thing I miss out on is the bread. Fries are safe and delicious. Everything else is amazing too

S. J.

I cannot have gluten or seed oils due to severe allergies, and this restaurant was very accommodating with their steak and working with me on sides because it's very difficult to eat out sometimes. The New York strip was cooked. Absolutely perfectly service was fantastic and the restaurant was very clean.

Danielle Fuentes Johnson

As some with multiple, severe food restrictions, Lamara was a wonderful surprise. Almost everything is gluten-free, and I had numerous dairy free and mammal free options as well.

Brandon Teasley

Great local breakfast spot. Even when there’s a line, service is fast. Very affordable and high quality food. They normally have a gluten free muffin or pastry option as well.

Tanya Swann

Delicious and unassuming with friendly folks taking your orders and making your food, this is the hidden gem we all look for. Excellent breakfast tacos, gluten free and vegan offerings and what looked like amazing sandwiches along with delicious coffee, juice and chai drinks. Great space to hangout and answer emails or gather with friends. All dining is outdoors, but looks onto a beautiful street.

Tania Pierce

Broad Street Cider was definitely a place I will return anytime I’m in New Orleans!! I love that they are all natural in the fermentation process (NO ADDED SUGARS/SYRUPS) and gluten free!! Excellent experience with great owners!! We enjoyed everything about it!! The ciders and meads were amazing and refreshing!! The charcuterie tray was super fun…and had many things I’d never tasted! I appreciated learning all of the origins and history of the foods/drinks! The pub design/lighting is cozy and I loved seeing many of the different steps of the processing in the well organized working space behind the bar! Thank you for a great time and we’ll see y’all again next time! =)

Averie Boutwell

We only waited like 15 minutes. Very good service. Food was amazing. Not very pricy either. 10 out of 10. You can customize your burger , hotdog, ETC. You can sub a gluten free bun too. Definitely recommend 👌🏻

Di Feng

Decent food. Server allowed me to switch out corn grits for potato when she found out I can't have milk or cream. They have gluten free toast. Server also recommended the rta bus and streetcar for me to go to the art museum. Very convenient and saved a lot of money

Juliet Barr

Don’t miss out! I just got back from New Orleans and hit up many restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I happen to have a gluten allergy, and I was with a friend who is a vegetarian. Going out for a Southern breakfast was a series of the two of us deconstructing the menu and leaving disappointed. Well, not the case at Horns! First of all, the place is decorated with fun, quirky art, a lot of which I noticed, was for sale! Next, the people who worked there were friendly. Which sadly was not the case in many places. Our food was delicious, perfect, plentiful, reasonably priced and piping hot. Make sure you come by there and enjoy a real good breakfast or lunch- you’ll want to go back- I do!

Allison Hackenmiller

Gluten-free labeled on the menu! Great cocktails made with their own spirits - we tried 6 different ones and liked all - and excellent food. We had the chicken sandwich and gulf shrimp over Creole slaw with a GF chocolate torte for dessert! A great way to spend a few hours, especially at happy hour prices - $5 for craft cocktails!

kari horowitz

Truly incredible food and ambiance, plenty of GF options on the menu!

Quentin Atkins

Mike Lappa

Outstanding dining experience, both small and large plates. Service was excellent, food arrived hot and was both delicious and had a wonderful presentation. A real find, that offers both indoor and a pleasant, protected outdoor dining. Finally, they were most accommodating of my wife's need for Gluten-Free options.

Tiffany Woods

They have a dedicated fryer and many GF options. The tacos are awesome!

Jeff Krause

Not my first time & definitely won't be my last. This time we went because they have started a Saturday "Bottoms Up Brunch", which is the same great food & drinks with the added bonus of one of New Orleans' best burlesque performers, Bella Blue, doing a pole/burlesque performance throughout the restaurant. It was an absolute blast and something very unique. I had the bloody Maria with mezcal - the best Tajin rim I've ever tasted. Apparently the chef's get the chamoy from the same Mexican outdoor market in Texas whenever they're traveling through and it's insanely good. My friend got one of the mocktails and it was also very good. Refreshing with great layers of flavor rarely found in an N/A option. And on to the next level of how Palm & Pine always gets it right. Between the two of us we have some pretty restrictive dietary needs. I choose a veggie heavy pescatarian diet. My friend has an autoimmune disease that flares up from a long list of things, the two worst being dairy & gluten. Next time you go to a restaurant see if you can find something to eat that doesn't have dairy, gluten, or meat in it...especially in New Orleans...go ahead...I'll wait...no I won't! I'll starve before you find me something. They have quite a few delicious vegetarian & seafood options but no dairy & no gluten together is tough. Our server happened to be the manager, Monica. Not only did she check multiple times with the chef for ingredients but the kitchen was able to swap out a side on her entree to get her something she loved and worked with her restrictions, all while being extremely kind and lovely about it all. All of this with what is supposed to be a pre-fixe menu, which they absolutely didn't have to do. I couldn't tell you the number of times my friend has be told elsewhere "no we can't change anything" and she'll just pick around it or leave off half the items in the dish, which she's used to doing and offered multiple times to do to not make it a hassle for the kitchen. The folks at Palm & Pine just took it in stride and went above and beyond expectations. Top notch in all categories. Wish I had taken pics but was too busy enjoying the food, drinks, & people.

Valerie M

My group of 8 had the best experience here. The food was absolutely incredible (the bacon was magical), and there were good options for the gluten free and vegetarians in the group. The owner was friendly and delightful. This is a must visit if you are in the area.

Druscilla Dyer

I’m vegan and the options were not very good. The smoothie was full of ice and not blended very well. I got a sandwich on gluten free bread and because the bread was gluten free it doesn’t hold like normal bread. But most restaurants with gluten free bread know to toast it so it doesn’t get soggy. They did not toast the bread and it was soggy.

Christina A

Ann Marie & Ashley were wonderful in accommodating my special diet needs (celiac). Thank you

Emily Ornella

Amazing spot for great smoothies and gluten free items!

K F

Our waitress was Haley and she was the most sweet person ever. She checked in with us and even gave me salt when she saw me looking for it! As someone who cannot eat gluten she walked me through what is gluten free and it made the experience so fun. I recommend trying this restaurant if you are near, we will be returning.

Debbie Kilpatrick

Absolutely awesome Red Beans and Rice! So excited that he was aware of Gluten issues 💖 Def will be back!

M

The best Lebanese/middle eastern food on the planet. Incredible in every way, has been a staple in my life since childhood. Great gluten free, vegan, vegetarian options for literally anyone. Service is always friendly, my only request is to please bring back the iced mint tea!!

Jennie Drake

Fantastic food, amazing oysters, superb attention to detail. Celiac friendly!

Nick Hall

Breakfast brunch. Gluten free bread option and drinks

Teresa Williams

Donna Sharp

Lori Rowden

Just had a wonderful lunch. Chicken and mushroom tacos are delicious. It is very accommodating for gluten-free, and my yellow Labrador enjoyed a few dog biscuits from our waiter:)))

Josh J Wagner

The food was great the drink selection was small but everything in the menu that we got was awesome. Wonderful gluten free options and helpful staff to ensure a good experience.

James Douglas

It's basic food with a casual atmosphere. Decent amount of options on the menu that can accommodate kids plus gluten free options. Music was up so loud conversation was very difficult but everyone was friendly yet not overly attentive. Having 8 different items on the menu nothing was bad but nothing that was great either. Stop in and expect to get full at a fair price.
