Top 50 Gluten-Free Dining Spots Across Kansas

Per my picky, Celiac, teenage daughter, “that was the best potato salad I’ve ever put in my face!” Haha! This place lives up to the hype. It’s delicious!!

Jill Gunderman

The breading was WAY too salty, but very grateful to have a gluten free option! Additionally, the employees were very kind and the establishment was clean.

Okay. I do love caffetteria or at least the idea of it, so I’ll still give them a 4, but this has happened too many times not to share. Every single time I’ve gone here they forget something on whatever dish I’ve ordered. When you charge what they charge, you just can’t forget key ingredients (or any ingredients). Cobb salad is a $17 salad - it’s marked at $16 but usually not enough dressing so I paid an extra dollar for a tiny little container of extra dressing. They forgot the avocado, arguably a key ingredient. They’ve forgotten bacon in the past. They’ve forgotten egg in the past. They’ve forgotten something on nearly every menu item I’ve tried. Overpriced. Food is good, not great. Nothing too remarkable for the price point. It’s a cute place, though. Vibes are good. I like the idea of it. There aren’t too many places that are healthy fast casual in the area so it’s nice to have the option, but it’s annoying to have to check every time to see if they remembered the key ingredients. Green goddess dips and chips - fab. Hummus - no pita bread available. Variety of sandwiches - good but nothing special. Variety of plates - great idea, comes out a little lackluster. Pb&j toast - ugh it is delicious but ordered this for a toddler, and I had to scoop off a layer bc there were full peanuts layered on the top of it and it was served on a very seed-filled bread - both of which most young toddlers can’t quite handle yet. My bad for not asking for a full description of it. Breakfast items - pretty good. Pizzas - delicious. Bakery - great. Coffee - pretty amateur. Not great at making lattes or specialized drinks from their menu. And why is a not so great mocha $8? It’s fine. It’s cute. They forget important ingredients often and charge a lot for pretty standard food. If you need something after you’ve ordered, good luck finding someone to help you. Oh a positive here - if you order a salad chopped it is very perfectly chopped. And decent effort and options for gluten free. I’m sure I’ll be back, and you should go too. Like I said, the vibes are good, the branding is cute, but lots of simple sloppy mistakes made at a price that’s a little too high for what it is.

We love Unforked! Occasionally, it gets busy and it takes a bit longer (5-10min extra) but it’s well worth the wait. I’m gluten free, not celiac, so I appreciate they have corn tortillas and gluten free buns as options.

Ellen Hutcheson

I've always loved this restaurant because it's a great place for a girl's night, work happy hour or a date night. It's become more of a favorite lately because they have so many great gluten free options. I visited a few days ago with several friends to celebrate my birthday and our server, Dave, was worthy of an outstanding review. Dave was very friendly, extremely knowledge about the menu and drinks and fun! His customer service was the highlight of the night though. He was very kind and accommodating when I had an issue with the unexpected level of spice in my meal. I'll definitely be back and request to sit in Dave's section going forward.

Michael Schnabel

Great place for Chinese food, including gluten free options.

A must-stop in Kansas City, Slap's BBQ is aptly named—this place truly "slaps"! The best part for me is that it's Gluten Free! Having tried BBQ in the South and East, I can confidently say Slap's has earned its reputation. The meat is incredibly tender, well-seasoned, and packed with flavor. Portions are huge, and the sides are shareable, featuring the tastiest sweet potato fries and coleslaw I've had. Seriously, everything here hit the mark and then some. The burnt ends were perfectly crispy yet tender, while the chicken leg quarter and beef cuts offered a delightful, naturally smoky flavor. The sausage was incredibly flavorful, and while a touch salty for my personal taste, it was beautifully balanced by the sweet potato fries and creamy coleslaw. Don't miss the sauce station, where you'll find both spicy and sweet BBQ options. They perfectly complement the meats without overwhelming their natural flavors, offering a delightful blend of sweet, smoky, and just the right amount of red chili spice. Plus, there are plenty of lids and boxes for your inevitable leftovers! My only minor gripe was that the picnic tables weren't cleaned after each use. However, if I'm ever in Kansas City again, I'm driving straight to Slap's BBQ - This isn't just a clever name; it's a promise delivered.

I do not recommend the gluten free crust here. Ordered it today and it's not very good. However- the cauliflower crust is much better of an option. Only rating lower due to Gluten-free crust.

Lisa Moore

Listen, they do the best impossible burgers ever and their ranch is amazing. But maybe don't try something new... The deviled eggs: don't make me laugh, might as well have eaten plaster it was so boring. And why 3 halves? Weird. The drinks: "is this vodka kombucha?" is the exact phrase my bestie used for her vodka cranberry. It was awful. My espresso martini was chunky and sour (yes I know cold brew if not made right can be sour). Considering we already had to order different drinks than our original orders we just drank them. General food is amazing here, love their gluten free options. They just need to work on the small things that make a meal.

Christine Harris

Drove from Kansas City, Mo just to check this place out. I am celiac and loved all the options I had. Got the cauliflower tiki masala and it was delicious. Server asked if I needed GF or celiac safe. Made me feel comfortable eating there. Will definitely be returning soon.

Don Sevcik

Outstanding pizza and that’s a big compliment coming from somebody who grew up on Chicagoland pizza. The gluten free crust is perfect. I had a BBQ chicken pizza and the bbq sauce was the right amount of sweet and heat. The kids meals got big praise from my kids. And my family made the gelato vanish quickly. The place is very clean and the staff are helpful and friendly. My kids are sweet telling me to come back here in a few days.

Jenny Chisam

I’ve eaten here twice in the past month and had a bad reaction both times. I don’t know if their safety practices are slipping or what but I won’t be trying again.

Amber Olson

We had a great dining experience. Our waitress was amazing. Best gluten free bun I've had since being diagnosed with Celiac.

Genevieve Chaffee

Great pizza. Something for everyone and celiac ate gluten free with no issues.

S Lewis

Excellent cheesy potato soup! Such a great variety of soups, even gluten free options!

Nathaniel Towler

This was some of the best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had! Tastes just like the real stuff! So much so I almost didn’t want to eat it 😂😅

From start to finish- this restaurant, this food, this experience was a whole vibe! Highly recommend! We were welcomed with an open door from the manager, greeted by a LOVELY smile from a lady named Ms. G. She was welcoming, dressed like she loved her job and greeted and knew regulars names! Our server was no less miraculous! Kait was welcoming, asked us if we had ever been here. She was thrilled to recommend all the best things for our first time experience. Bonus- she gave us a sampling if the biscuits and gravy since it was our first time! AND not ONLY that- she was cautious and asked us if we had any allergies she needed to be aware of before submitting our order! STELLAR SERVICE! The bathroom had an incredibly meaningful wishing wall. Go check it out! Spreading positivity! The food- holy macaroni! We got the stuffed french toast and streusel blueberry pancakes. Highly highly recommend both! They make gluten free pancakes which were fluffy and tasty and you'd never know! The other manager was dressed incredible- suit jacket, shirt and a welcoming smile! Thanked everyone for coming. Everyone seemingly truly loved the job. Kait seemed to know all the regulars and was so grateful to see all the families talkjng yo all yhe kids and engaging with them all! I would come back for the service ALONE .....and the food being incredible would be a BONUS! 🙂 A MUST VISIT LOCATION!

Visited on a Saturday morning and there was a 10 min wait for a party of 2. The food was tasty. They have a good selection of gluten free items. I was not a fan of the iced tea (tasted like they used gunpowder tea or added smoked wood). The gluten free pancakes and cinnamon French toast were really good. Service was slow; took a while to get drinks/order taken and the only other time we saw our server was when we got the bill. It was very busy so I’m guessing she was in the weeds, but it wasn’t the greatest experience. We will probably visit again next time we’re in Wichita.

I ordered spinach omelet and potatoes, no bread and informed the staff I have celiacs. I was sick before I left the restaurant. They offer gluten-free pancakes but I was told they are cooked on the same surface as other pancakes. This is not celiac safe.

stephanie smith

Ordered gluten free and the food was delicious

Ally Smith

I have celiac and consistently love this place ! The serving staff is always kind and today, I believe the kitchen manager came out to tell me he ensured my food was prepared gluten free Love this place ! Great service and amazing food

Marie Green

Steve Morse

Great turkey club sandwich. Service was good too. If you're looking for a grilled cheese sandwich of any kind, this is the place to go! Nicely seasoned kettle chips made a great side. There was also an option for gluten free bread.

Mary Beth Boucher

My extended family and I (7 of us) all had lunch yesterday at Strips in Lenexa. As far as I’m concerned, this gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. The owner (Todd) came out and talked to our table for quite a while, so I got to ask all the questions about separate fryer, dedicated workspace, etc. I have complete confidence eating here. Also, all my “gluten goblins” thought the GF food was good too. In fact, they all said the GF onion strings were the best they’ve had anywhere!!! I did not have a reaction, so I’m spreading the good news! GF food can be really good…and it is here!!! I ordered the smoked pulled bbq pork sandwich on a GF bun…that DID NOT FALL APART!!! It wasn’t hard and was sooo yummy. Woo hoo!!! I also tried the GF fried zucchini and enjoyed that as well. Just let them cool down a bit and use the fork they bring you. The coating will fall off as you try to eat it. My sister was thrilled that they had real broasted chicken. The only thing I would change is—please have a chipotle ranch dressing for dipping. That is my favorite for dipping anything and slathering on sandwiches. Oh, and need wet naps! My husband was not happy with the price of the cocktails ($15), but they were awesome. My mojito was strained. 😳 So no chunks of mint sneaking up the straw. I definitely tasted the mint though. We sat at a two tables moved together, but we noticed that a couple of the booths had TV screens with Roku. I guess you can choose what you want to watch. Also, the booths have tall backs, so I would imagine it would feel nice and private in there. Everything was a dark wood surface—very homey. There was a patio on the east side, which would be nice in the evening. We will definitely come back!!!

Heather Sharp

Cute place. The gluten free bun was good but had seeds on it so be aware of that. The white chicken chili was amazing!

Ashley Reddig

This place is hands down one of my favorite spots in Lawrence, KS. The atmosphere, food, drinks, and overall service is always fantastic. They offer gluten free, smoothies, a fun side menus for the season, pastries, and even more. The atmosphere is a great place to get work done, studying, or even a catch up with friends!

Rayne

In house the fries are $17 however on the website or google it lists them at 5 and 4 dollars respectively, that's a WILD rip off. I ordered the salmon in person and was told it was not gluten free as they put noodles on the dish (i wanted salmon why not offer just the salmon :(() however the website says they are arrow root noodles. which unless they just changed it and didn't update it on the website or lied to me should be gluten free as they are made of arrow root starch. the server was however really nice, I assume they probably just didn't update it especially with the all the discrepancies between the online and in person menu's including listed ingredients. all of the portions were small especially for the price (bf got fries and the brisket tacos, the fries pictured on there website seem to be a larger portion than what we were given) the korean fried chicken was the only one worth the price as they absolutely piled my bowl up with chicken lol

Domanic Jordan

Good for more than just their cheesecakes, but definitely cannot leave without getting one! My favorite order is their gluten-free bacon cheeseburger, fries, and coconut cream pie cheesecake!

Angela Smith

Billie Parsons

Denise Lindsey

My favorite place to dine when eating out. I feel safe eating gluten free meals there.

Rae Oh

I had the El Salvadoreno Sampler which includes the pupusas, pasteles, tamales, and enchiladas. This is so different from anything I’ve ever had before and I was pleasantly surprised by how many gluten free options there were, as most of the items are made using corn flour.

Alberto Peters

Tiffany Owings

As a Functional Nutritionist I can’t express how wonderful it is to know there’s a place where myself and clients can still enjoy time out with friends and family while not compromising our nutrition goals. No seed oils and so many gluten and vegan options! And the food was amazing!

Mikayla Hill

Absolutely amazing. Better than Johnnys. Burgers were phenomenal, and had gluten free, dairy free, and vegan options. Sauce selection was amazing. Finished with an alcoholic milkshake that was perfect. Considered getting fries but it was a perfectly filling meal, we weren't sure if we would of been able to handle fries lol

Jes Lane

We got there just ahead of the rush on a Friday evening. We had dumplings, pan fried, and the salmon special, along with the cheesecake wonton dessert. This was my first meal eating out since following the AIP Modified Elimination diet- I was ready to reintroduce soy/ edamame. Even with the little bit of gluten and dairy I seem to be 100% okay with this reintroduction! So grateful because our meal there was a little taste of heaven!!! Cannot wait to go back.

Rachel Hickam

I have a gluten allergy and totally felt safe eating here. They had a dedicated fryer just for fries and our server paid attention to my order to make sure it was safe. The food came super quick and was delicious! Thank you!

Connor Strouse

As a guy going to breakfast, it’s not the best ~options-wise~ if you want lots of protein and a big breakfast the only options you really have is the quinoa bowl “power bowl” and bacon. Although it tastes great, and the staff are great .

Carrie Thomas

They have many alternatives so you can get a dairy-free, gluten-free pizza. You can customize the pizza a great deal.

Jacqueline S

It’s fabulous!! The staff were absolutely amazing. They were so accommodating for our that is gluten intolerant and they were so helpful.

Heather .Heater

It's such a cute coffee shop, and it's all gluten-free! All the plants have names, which is a funny and cute little thing to add to the overall atmosphere. I will have to remember to take pictures the next time I go But the cherry almond enters bites are delicious.

Erik Baaske

Great food at a fair price. Celiac friendly.

Benjamin Salley

Scott Kolb

The food was great and reasonably priced. There was a large gluten-free menu to choose from, and the servers were well versed in understanding a gluten free diet. Can't wait to go back!

Debi Clem

I have very few places I feel safe to eat due to gluten exposure. They are very careful at pizza west and I've never had a reaction.

Jon Russell

Healthy and not heavy feeling after. Just delicious! My gluten free wife loved it so much that we wish there was one closer to us. I promise you'll love your food and eating experience.

M. M. Summers

My sister has Celiac Disease, we talked to our sweet waitress and ordered only gluten free food. The cooks or kitchen staff didn't pay any head to our order. They put fried chicken and coated bacon on my sister's gluten free bun and then took most of it off and replaced it with what she had ordered. Now she is sick and will be sick for probably the next week. If you have dietary restrictions, I suggest you don't risk your health here. The front house staff is really sweet and if you don't have dietary restrictions, the food is good.
