Top 11 Gluten-Free Dining Spots to Explore in Norwood

Busy little place. Had a great meal there but definitely felt the pressure to eat fast and get out of there with the line that was building outside. The food was pretty good, the staff seemed run off their feet and a little stressed, but still friendly. Coeliac safe!

When my friend and I walked in to 30 Acres on a Friday morning , it was abuzz with lively patrons . We were seated immediately and offered a choice of sparkling or still water by a friendly server . It’s the little details like this that help give a good impression. ( and I much prefer sparkling water , especially on a hot summer’s day ) The menu was short and to the point , and most dishes had gluten free options- and they also offered a small juice menu which looked interesting. I ordered the potato doughnut ( which unfortunately came with bread as it’s not gluten free ) but I was told that beforehand so was prepared. It had the addition of pineapple salsa , which I could smell as it was put down in front of me . What could have been a basic bacon and egg toastie was elevated with the taste of the pineapple and addition of the haloumi and chorizo, which gave it a peppery taste . The relish on my friend’s bacon and eggs was amazing- I had a taste after she insisted . They really should bite and sell it . The watermelon mojito that my friend and I both ordered was amazing - just right for the heat of the day . The initial sweetness of the strawberries with watermelon undertones and the aftertaste of mint - I wonder if they do this in a cocktail because the taste was on point . This place has an open plan kitchen and an in house bakery where they bake their sourdough and fruit bread - as well as some pastries . We ordered a gluten free orange an almond cake to take away later and some iced lattes- which was a nice bold well roasted coffee with no butter aftertaste ( but I forgot to ask what it was - I’d be interested in the answer ) Apparently they also do gin cocktails in the evening and they did have a quite impressive range of South Australian gins so it would probably be worth a trip back . The only let down for me was the noise level , as high ceilings echo ( and there probably wasn’t any sound proofing) but that is my personal preference. This place was also visually appealing and we were both impressed with the artistic lighting , comfortable bench seat and custom made rounded front counter it reminded me a little of an Art Deco speakeasy . Lovely overall experience.

Always a great feed at Zambrero's. With plenty of options for vegans and gluten intolerant. Make sure you pick up one of their loyalty cards.

Pretty decent food at a good price. Not the greatest gluten-free options, but they did have gluten free bread. Coffee was pretty good as well as the smashed avocado toast. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating.

The best gluten free pasta I've ever had!! Their handmade gnocchi is amazing, and the owner is really nice!

Took the family out for lunch. Great selection of kids options (lunch and brekkie) and the brunch for the parents was top notch (we got the hash) and offered gluten free alternatives. Service is always great. Ate in the heated outdoor space.

I had an absolutely horrible experience here tonight! First of all the staff have no idea what they are doing and cannot read the room! Recieved the pasta after almost 45 mins, we ordered one gluten free one and one normal. The waiter gave the gluten free one to me and the gluten one to my friend who is allergic and claimed it was right. I knew straight away I had received the wrong pasta and they denied it. I waited 20 mins for someone to give us eye contact and look at our table so I had to get up myself and find someone! They said they would go ask the chef and Brought back and said you had the right ones but they changed the plates around and we said no this is not what is was before! They then apologised for being wrong. Ordered potatoes that didn’t come for almost an hour, asked where they were and no one came back to us for 15 mins!!! Told us that the order did not go through. Horrible staff, horrible place!!! Would not recommend. Clowns running the place.

Consistently great food. I've been going here for many years and I've never had a bad meal. The laksa is my favourite. Good gluten free options.

I'm a regular here for my midday coffee fix, and I am always very happy with their espressos. Food menu is great too, with many vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. The service is consistently warm and friendly–5 out of 5 for sure!

Decent burger joint and always has been in Norwood, leads all the stores in Adelaide. Food is good but doesn’t have the wow factor than it originally did. The menu has expanded well out of the usual menu zone having more items than needed on a burger joint. Great amount of options though for vegetarians and vegans alongside gluten free. Probably need more staff in the busier periods as it can get really busy

Had a wonderful experience at the Republic. For starters the waiting staff were amazing. Friendly, attentive and accommodating to my tables needs. The meals were most importantly delicious, with many enticing options for carnivores, vegetarians and gluten intolerant people alike. The meals were also brought out not long after we ordered, which was incredible given how busy it was (Fathers Day). I can highly recommend the share plates - my wife and I had four plates between us. We also had a large group, with everyone being happy with their meal. We will definitely be coming back! Thank you Republic!
