Top 18 Gluten-Free Dining Spots to Delight in Burleigh Heads

Crispy Italian Bar is hands down the best and most authentic pizza experience I’ve had! From the moment you walk in, the aromas transport you straight to Italy. Their pizzas are next-level – perfectly thin, crispy bases with the freshest toppings. But what really blew me away was their handmade gluten-free pizza. As someone who’s tried gluten-free options all over, I can confidently say this is the best I’ve ever had. You’d never know it’s gluten-free – it’s that good! The team is friendly, the vibe is relaxed, and the food speaks for itself. Absolute gem!

An exceptional dining experience from start to finish! Our dinner for four at Rick Shores was nothing short of perfection. We were lucky enough to score the best seats in the house, which set the tone for an unforgettable evening. From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding and our waitress deserves special recognition for her exceptional attention and vibrant personality. With a severe coeliac and a peanut allergy at our table, dining out can often feel daunting, but not here. Our waitress took the time to thoroughly address our concerns, offering thoughtful suggestions and ensuring every dish was prepared with care. Her patience, professionalism and undeniable flair made us feel at ease and her genuine kindness was the cherry on top. And the food—absolutely divine! Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavour. The kitchen’s ability to accommodate allergies without compromising on quality or taste was impressive and we’re happy to report our guest with allergies “survived the night” without a hitch. For coeliacs, this restaurant is a shining example of how it should be done. Rick Shores delivered on every front: ambience, service and food. Thank you for an evening that left us all raving. Highly recommend!

Great quirky atmosphere when you've had enough of "corporate" looking cafe's. Martine and her team always make you feel so welcome. Coffee's great and they bake all their delicious food in house. Lots of Gluten Free goodies too. Love it!! ❤️

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Maman Bar & Kitchen, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warm hospitality that made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. The food was absolutely divine. Each dish was a delightful blend of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavors, crafted with care and made from the freshest local and organic ingredients. I especially loved that they offered a variety of vegan and gluten-free options, catering to all dietary preferences without compromising on taste. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and it was clear that everything was made with love. The drinks were equally impressive, with no-nonsense cocktails and a great selection of sustainable wines that perfectly complemented the meal. The attention to detail in both the food and service was truly outstanding. Overall, Maman Bar & Kitchen exceeded my expectations in every way. The combination of delicious, thoughtfully prepared food and exceptional hospitality made for an unforgettable dining experience. I can’t wait to return and would highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a wonderful meal in a welcoming setting.

Food and service was first class! Plenty of Coeliac options as well. The open kitchen atmosphere and dish description make for a very personalised experience. Thanks to Wade and the team for a great lunch!

It is unfortunate that the lowest you can rate someone is 1 star, equally so, in this situation it is unfortunate that there are only 5 stars as a maximum when this place definitely earned 7 in every respect today for our lunchtime experience. The majestic setting and gorgeous maritime views just wrapped our meal in the warm fuzzies that it respectfully commanded . Being one half of a chef couple, neither of us could fault a thing on our plates and the casual yet highly attentive service from our waiter , James , was incredibly knowledgeable. Most of the menu either was already or could be prepared gluten free, much to the delite of my wife who is a coeliac. We had the freshest snapper ever and the tastiest tuna and avocado I have had the pleasure to consume. I highly recommend this place to dine, for any occasion.

Great gluten free options

I had the Pablo with a gluten free bun. The bun was amazing, texture and taste of a quality white wheat flour bun. The kumara fries and accompanying sauce were great too. Everyone loved their burgers. We’ll definitely return to Ze Pickle, nice to see there are some close to where we live in Brisbane. P.S. these are the best gluten free buns I’ve ever had. In a different league to all others I’ve tried.

Had my birthday here , they kindly sorted our table out the “back” which is my opinion is that best spot ! We had 1 gluten free and one vegetarian and the chiefs so generously gave us the set menu and created plates for our vege and gluten friends and it just made the whole experience great The food alone is enough to recommend this place over and over again , but the chiefs are wonderful the staff are equally as wonderful, the whole place is just WONDERFUL , it has a beautiful atmosphere I cannot recommend it enough ,it’s is by far my favourite spot in the Gold Coast Thanks guys for a great night If

Not too rowdy and nice food but an extra fryer for gluten free chips would be awesome.

Gabe McCauley

Stoked to have this place in the local area. Effectively classy pub food with a little bit of extra. Parmi, salt and pepper squid and steak all amazing. Gluten Free burger buns would be an incredible addition and we’d eat there every week if added ;) Super kids menu as well and great booze. Thanks guys!
