Top 50 Gluten-Free Pet-Friendly Spots Across Cincinnati

Transcendental empanadas, arepas bursting with fresh fillings, frosty beverages, and a little shop where you can scarf up South American comfort foods and ingredients. The Arepa Place is amazing. My first bite into the chicken empanada sent me on a long journey to a far away planet named Delicious Prime. I landed, mid chew, in a great battle of shredded chicken, buttery flaky fried crust, and an assortment of salsas. There was purple smoke, the screaming of my teeth, and a salty wave of energy that made me urinate my pants. Moments later my wife and daughter shook me awake and I found myself on the floor moaning like a cow in heat. "Are you okay?" they asked, frantically. My response, "more arepas. And some of that aguapanela." The EMT team, curious, ordered some as well. Then, with my EMT team, I transcended back into the fever dream of flavor. Dedicated gluten free. Cute wall decor.

Celiac friendly! Very knowledgeable and they have dedicated fryers!

Nearly everything was gluten free or could be made that way!! Everything we had was delicious. Highly recommend the crab cake. Steak and chowder were both delicious as well.

Melissa Feigl

This place is phenomenal! The staff is always smiling, kind and helpful. The food is amazing whether stopping in for a meal, carrying out or catering! We have done it all and never been disappointed. If you eat gluten free they have amazing offerings!

Gareth Davies

Good gluten free buns with their burgers.

Dorothy Kowalsky

Good food as always. I am so glad for a place without gluten so my daughter can eat without worry.

Jacob Thigpen

Was happy to see that they had gluten free pancakes. Visited twice and had a good experience both times. Apple juice and orange juice will charge you $5 so watch out for that.

The lox was delicious. Lots of gluten free and vegan options.

I have gone here multiple times and today the food was awful. To be honest it hasn’t been good at all lately but today was horrible. My son ordered cinnamon bun which he described as been extremely dry and I could tell when he went to pull first bite it was dry. Secondly my gluten free pancakes looked good but were also dry and tasted sour. So they brought me out 2 slices of gluten free French toast which was better than pancakes but not the best. My Eggs were overdone as well but I dealt with it. And then when going to check out they had mistakenly forgot to remove the pancakes so they over charged me. Just a bad experience today but as I said my last few trips here the food has not been great. Hope they make improvements soon because they do have great gluten free options for people like me.

Hole-in-the-wall burger place in Northside doesn't quite live up to the gem in its hidden gem status. Ordered the "Hammstein", "Buns n Rose's black bean", and vegan "James Brownie" milkshakes. Pros: Large variety of eclectic burgers, including a couple vegan options, all with fun, quirky names. They also offer gluten free & pretzel buns. Though it fell apart easily, I appreciated that the bean burger seemed fresh and handmade - could see the beans. Milkshakes can be made with vegan ice cream (coconut ice cream & almond milk). Fries were great, and burgers tasted decent. Cons: Limited seating in a tight space. Atmosphere is a little grungy, and staff seemed stressed and rushed despite there not being many people. Vegan milkshake was like syrup - not good. Biggest issue: Staff were NOT knowledgeable about dietary restrictions. I asked if the milkshakes were entirely vegan or if it was just an ice cream swap > was told it was totally vegan > turns out the mix-ins are not necessary vegan (the brownie had egg and I had to ask 4 times before I got that answer.) Sadly, can't say I'll be back.

We were blown away by this place, it is such a beautiful romantic place to eat. They do have gluten free dishes and it's a family owned business the staff is incredibly friendly we even bought shirts. Highly recommend this place.

This place is awesome!!! Ordered one savor and one sweet g/f crepes. They were AMAZING!!! Cook asked if it was celiac and switched utensils, no reaction :). Wish it was closer. But seriously if you've never experienced a crepe, try it, it will be life changing.

Seating: Table was clean but awkward seating placement. Pretty slow day on a Wednesday. The wine: I got the basic marrlow Wine. It has sat for a while. Slightly separated with a hint of bitter. It smells fresh. Slight cranberry flavor but mostly tastes like it hd sat hu hasnt aged. Doesn't slide down easily, definitely a sipping wine. Would be paired well with a chicken, or something light to contrast the dark undertones of the wine. Service and atmosphere: Asked about allergies. Asked about getting me a special wllergy safe menue. New her menu very well. Good scenery. Nice sense of music. There is a mix of dark subitiabilty mixed. It gives outdoor Deck well still having the comfortably of a high end diner. Very hotel esk. Service was attendant and open. As well as quick moving. Air ventilation is good Waiter also left The food: Asked for medium, god medium well. Not the worst for a burger, but would be worried about a steak. Burger is very well made. The bread for being gluten free held up quite well and it was seasoned very good. One of the best I've had. Upelled me on desert, the experience was so good I took it. I am looking forward too trying this. Better menu options then ford's garage as far as gluten free or allergy safe options go. The penutbutter pie: may I just say I was delighted. The airy light sweetness of this pie was one of the best I've ever had, glute free or not. The texture was smooth yet every bite felt varied in a wonderful way only penutbutter can do. It was also very ohio. Reminiscent of the buckies desert tht ohio is known for. The presentation was mouthwatering and it was well deserved. The chocolate sauce felt fresh, sweet, and well placed. The nuts where fresh (ive had many where the nuts where stale) and well placed. My only downside to this pie was the spray on wipcream, which if swapped for homemade would make this pie double the price, but award winning. Overall rating 4.0/ 5

Fantastic service and food and drinks! The chicken enchiladas, chips n salsa and the jalapeno cornbread were my favorites but everything was 10/10! Options available for dietary restrictions- gluten free/celiac

Awesome simple spot for the same trustworthy food each time. Not expensive and fast. Celiac safe (gluten free). I wish they had a protein option or more beans than rice (add tofu would be awesome) but that’s my only feedback!

Jarrod Dose

Many Gluten Free options available! Staff is very conscious of allergies and cross contamination. Great cafe!

Love Agave & Rye In Rookwood! The food was awesome as always! Enjoy the new menu and taco flight option! Our server, Megan, was awesome and really appreciate ensuring that we could accommodate my husband’s dairy & gluten sensitivity.

Joshua & Sarah Lee

Very gluten free friendly and delicious! Definitely appreciated the help with the gluten free selection. Delicious lamb and meat sampler. Really liked the pickled turnips and flavorful sauces!

Eryn Kipner

I’ve been to this location twice recently and both times the staff were all extremely friendly and communicative!! Had a great experience both times!! I appreciate that everything on the menu is so well labeled so I don’t have to worry about finding gluten free options! Highly recommend

The pizza is so cheesy and delicious, and there are lots of options, including gluten-free. Beers are cheap. Mac's beer is $2 on draft and too tasty for that price. Service was awesome from everyone, but Sydney was an exceptional server. Not just for us, but for the booth next to us who were from out of town.

The lady at the front desk was so welcoming! While I was waiting on my husband in the bathroom she went out of her way to talk to me and complimented my shirt. She answered all of my questions about gluten free options, if she didn’t know the answer she asked other employees. This is so important to us because gluten isn’t our friend. If you know you know 😂. This young lady deserves a raise! 8:15am 06/27/25
