Top 50 Gluten-Free Pet-Friendly Spots to Explore in Wilmington

Amazing savory and sweet crepes, and best of all for me, all are available in gluten free. We discovered this restaurant when we visited UNCW with our son, and now that he is a student there, we make sure to visit Our Crepes & More whenever we’re in town. My favorites are the Monte-Cristo savory and the Mont-Blanc sweet, but really, we’ve enjoyed everything we’ve tried.

I have to avoid gluten at all costs and this place provided a great selection of safe options. The food is good and the person taking the order was friendly and knowledgeable about the gluten issue and cross contact. Celiac Review

A Friend and I ate here while on a mini vacation. The staff are very friendly and attractive to your needs. I had the raspberry stuffed French toast on Gluten Free bread. With a fruit bowl. My friend had the bacon avocado omelet with fried potatoes. The food was amazing! The flavor was spot on. I love food that had a lot of flavor . If you are in the area this restaurant is a must!

Highly recommend this place, the atmosphere is incredible and the staff is really welcoming. Having celiac disease(gluten allergy) limits me from eating out but this place makes me feel very safe. The food is amazing. shout out to Lora and Matt!!

Cindy Bentley

Wonderful, knowledge on gluten free. Had tuna poke bowl. Smaller portions.

Krista Scialabba

There’s nothing better than a grilled cheese sandwich from Cheesesmith ESPECIALLY because they have GF options for those like myself who can’t have gluten. 10/10 all around.

What a great experience! We had my nephews wedding rehearsal brunch here and it was perfect. The food was delicious and came out quick! Everyone finished their plate completely. And it was beautifully plated. The restaurant itself is cute and the patio was perfect for our party of 25. The thing that made it so special was our server, Judah. He was fast, attentive, and so friendly!!! They have gluten free options, and vegetarian. As a gluten free vegan I order the oatmeal. Not very exciting but it was actually really good.

oh Susannah

They have gluten free pizza crust and great salads! Yum.

Three10 is located in a lovely house with an open kitchen and a large outdoor space. The tables are well spaced so you never feel hemmed in. The staff is professional and attentive. The menu includes imaginative preparations for their dishes, one of my favorites is the black garlic Caesar salad. The special of the day was a striped bass over polenta with guanciale and puttanesca which my husband loved. The roasted oysters prepared with bacon, collards and cornbread crumbs are wonderful. They have a dedicated gluten free fryer and most dishes can be prepared gluten free. Highly recommend!

NOT GF. We were told they have no gluten free pizza so we left very confused after reading all the reviews. The pizza looked great! Wish I didn’t have to submit a star rating to communicate this!

So second time coming and possibly the last… I’ve been here before and I really liked it. This time I was honestly SO disappointed because I was really looking forward to coming here because it’s like a special occasion. So about the food— I ordered gluten free pizza. It was soggy and falling apart. Flavor was good. Also ordered a burger with a gluten free “bun” however it was not a bun it was small pieces of thin sandwhich bread that when I picked up the burger it had been disintegrated in the container already. So the burger just fell apart. Honestly I really wanted to have a nice meal but nobody could really enjoy the food. So that’s my review it was good before but this time was bad enough to tell me maybe ownership changed or quality control got fired man I’m not sure.

Great recommendation!! Food was great, and so was the atmosphere. My drink...amaaaaazing! 🥹👏💓👍 #SpikedRaspberryLemonade #MinnieQuaterPoundCheeseburger on gluten-free buns, with mushrooms, lettuce, pickels, AND garlic fries!! 🫶❤️✨️👏

The breakfast was pretty good. My Husband and I got the grande classic and substituted the toast for a gluten friendly pancake.

I cannot possibly say enough amazing things about our dining experience at Seabird last night! I made a reservation online for 4 people. One friend was unable to join, so it ended up being three of us celebrating my engagement. When we arrived at our table, there was a congratulations note and an origami swam waiting for us- so sweet! Our server, Erin, was the best server I have ever had the pleasure of knowing- from start to finish, she checked on us frequently, was so kind and friendly that we all felt the warm fuzzies, knew the wine menu in and out (one of my group is a wine professional), and gave the most incredible descriptions of the food options that we all ended up overordering and enjoying everything! Food run down- - Shellem Wild Mussels- Unfortunately I was not able to try these as I’m allergic to an ingredient in them. My friend ordered them and devoured them! She gave a 5 star rating! - Fresno Chili Prok Ribs- delicious! I’m a spice wimp so they were a little hot for my taste, and my friend loved them! - Roasted Carrot Salad- what a treat! This salad had the sweetness from the carrots and carrot puree combined with a light dressing and thinly sliced limes. It was an incredible salad! - Smoked Catfish and Oyster Pie- we weren’t sure what to expect with this dish. It came in a bowl like a soup and had a baked topping on it almost like a pita/cheese layer. It was fantastic! It also came with herbs you could shred and add to it. - Shellem oysters- locally farmed, briney, so fresh! This comes with two different hot sauces, cocktail sauce, and another sauce along with lemons. - Eastern Cioppino- one friend is gluten-free and dairy-free. This dish was able to be made perfectly for her! She said this is her favorite dish to order, and our waitress said it’s the one she eats the most as well. Delicious! - We also had two cheese plates- a gouda and a blue cheese- that were delicious and great portions! - Then at the end, to celebrate my engagement, I had a scoop of lemon poppyseed ice cream! - Throughout our meal we also had a number of different glasses of wines. We were able to taste each one first, and Erin was amazing about splitting the glasses- we didn’t all want full glasses of wine, and you can’t order a half glass, so we would order a glass and be served two half glasses to share. Brilliant! Honestly, Seabird is probably the best dining experience in Wilmington. They also keep notes about what food and drink you enjoy so that when you return, the team can suggest items you may really like and keep track of things like allergies. The manager frequently checked on every table as well, and the entire team worked together seamlessly to ensure we had everything we needed at all times. We never felt rushed and were able to enjoy every minute of our dining experience.

Mission BBQ catered our backyard wedding for 40 guests and we cannot say enough good things about them. Sarah made the whole process of choosing our menu so enjoyable and seamless. The day-of caterers showed up in a timely manner and were so pleasant and professional with our guests! The table was decorated beautifully with greenery and signage. The food was literally to die for and everyone was raving about it. Lots of gluten free options. Our favs were the ribs and the cornbread (and everything else of course). They pack up any leftovers for you to keep after the event and cleaned up so quickly! Highly highly recommend Mission BBQ for any event you need catered. (Photos by Atlanta Dahlia Photography)

Love this place! I have celiacs dx and the staff here is always knowledgeable and so accommodating! We came in today with a good sized party. Liam was our server. He did I so great with our chaos 3 kiddos a bunch of extra checks and allergies. One of the kiddos spilled a drink. He was so chill and handled it all with such grace. Thanks Liam!

Josef Schacher

Very accommodating to my girlfriend whom had a gluten allergy. Would highly recommend

Jesse Bolduc

We loved this place. Especially since they had gluten free for my girlfriend. Would definitely come back again.

Jem in a strip mall. New an d unique flavors. A good number of gluten free options

Kacie Dubuque

Lots of delicious GF brunch options, and GF bread is available. They were very receptive when I reported it was due to celiac disease and brought my food out separate from the rest of the groups.

Megan Strucko

The Spoonfed team catered my wedding, and it was one of the best decisions I made during the planning process! I had several guests with allergies and Susan was a joy to work with to make sure there were accommodations for everyone. Not only that, but the gluten free and vegan options were JUST as delicious as the other options. Hands down, it was the best wedding dinner I’ve ever had, and we received countless compliments the next day from guests who felt the same. The staff was incredible—not only were they professional and attentive, but they also brought so much joy to our day. The morning of the wedding, our wedding party had breakfast at the restaurant, and the staff made us feel so welcomed and celebrated. I’m so grateful we can continue enjoying Spoonfed’s amazing food at their restaurant!

Perfect date night! I have Celiacs and they took down that information over the phone, our waitress knew about it when we were sat, and she was very knowledgeable on what was gluten free and how accommodations could be made for me to enjoy! We made reservations and we were seated as soon as we came in. We enjoyed more than the Melting Pot, and on the plus side it was cheaper than Melting Pot (and we got drinks!). We will be back for some more in the future!

Cannot express how pleased we were with our experience here. I have celiac and the amount of attention to detail ensuring I was only given foods that were safe for me to eat and to make sure there was no cross contamination was unreal. Our sever Jacob went above and beyond checking every item so I would not get sick. They have gluten free bread and brownies that made me question if it was really safe because of how good they were. Will definitely be returning and recommend it to anyone with celiac that wants a nice dining experience.

MeMa’s Chick’n and Ribs is nothing short of a flavor-filled experience. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warmth, welcoming smiles, and the mouthwatering aroma of slow-smoked goodness. Tthe ribs fall off the bone, and the brisket melts in your mouth. They’ve got something for everyone BBQ lovers, seafood fans, vegans, and the gluten-free crowd alike. And the dessert bar? An entire bar for DESSERTS!!! More than just a meal, MeMa’s is a place where community and comfort come together. Great food, a loving vibe, and a heart behind every dish. Simply put just plain phenomenal.

Great job on the beer battered fish and chips (for which I substituted tater tots). Really appreciate the attention to detail the server put into making sure the salad ordered by the person in our party with Celiac was indeed gluten free.

Excellent pizza, crispy wings and 1/2 price burgers on a Wednesday night. East coast IPA was tasty. We make our own dough and pizzas at home in a pizza oven. These pizzas were the best we’ve had in the area. Simple Sicilian style pizzas good sauce, nice tasting crust. No garlic after taste is a plus. We had a lovely waitress and she took our order. You can do on phones as well but this was definitely a better option. Wish I got her name. Atmosphere- we sat in bar, it’s a bar. There are other areas to sit in. It’s was a rainy night so wasn’t crazy busy. Will return Almost forgot … I have a gluten free kid so having options for her was an added bonus

Great gluten free options plus wide variety of foods

We have been loyal fans of K38 for years. Throughout my pregnancy, Monday night Baja fish tacos were my ultimate craving — a true highlight of those months. In fact, I was enjoying K38 the night I went into labor, and it’s a special memory we’ve always cherished. Because of that, we chose K38 to celebrate our daughter’s first birthday this week, wanting to honor the tradition. Unfortunately, I’m sad to say it was the worst restaurant experience I’ve had in a very long time. First, I want to note that our server was wonderful — kind, apologetic, and doing her best to navigate the situation. None of this was her fault. However, when I ordered my usual two grilled fish tacos on corn tortillas (no cheese) — something I’ve ordered countless times — our server informed us that as of that day, K38 would no longer allow substitutions for the Monday night fish tacos, meaning, no grilled fish. Disappointed but understanding, I ordered another entrée that I knew was gluten free, again requesting no cheese. When the dish arrived, it had cheese all over it. I had to send it back, and by that point, feeling frustrated, I ordered the simplest thing I could think of — two ground beef tacos. They were just okay — nothing remarkable — and yet we were shocked to find they cost $16. Over the years, what made K38 special was their willingness to accommodate allergies and dietary needs with care. That is no longer the case. It seems that flexibility and attention to customer needs have fallen by the wayside. For anyone who is gluten-free, dairy-free, or has dietary restrictions, be warned: Monday Baja taco nights are no longer what they once were. It truly breaks my heart to write this, but after years of loyalty, tonight left us feeling disappointed and unappreciated. We’ll be taking a break from K38 — at least for now.

When in town, this place has been a usual stop for to-go meals, but my last order was disappointing. I ordered the Ayudhya Aubergine vegan and gluten-free. In the past it was always delicious but this time, there was only the taste of eggs. I asked the people at the counter to confirm it was vegan, and they said yes. Maybe the cook does not understand that vegan means no animal products and it should be cooked separately. Especially if the smell or taste of eggs is nauseating to some. Maybe they all need to be educated. Unfortunately, I can't no longer recommend this place. Maybe the regular restaurant would be better, but I won't be trying it anytime soon. Be cautious when ordering your vegan dishes, as you can see, a vegan diet is not taken seriously.
