Top 12 Gluten-Free Take Away Spots to Enjoy in Saint Anthony Main, Minneapolis

Mika Baer

The menu is rooted in Southern and Caribbean-inspired flavors, and everything is made with care. My personal go-to is the pulled chicken, which is juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned. Pair it with the creamed jalapeño spinach - a side dish so unexpectedly addictive that I now find myself ordering it every time, no matter what else I get. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with a laid-back counter-service setup that somehow still manages to feel intentional and warm. It’s the kind of place where regulars bring newcomers, knowing the food will speak for itself. Other favorites include the slow-roasted pork, collard greens, and desserts. They are all flavorful, filling, and made to be mixed, matched, and shared. The portions are generous, and there are great options for gluten-free and dairy-free diners, too. Brasa doesn’t try to be trendy or overcomplicated. It focuses on doing comfort food right. With quality ingredients, bold flavor, and heart, if you’re looking for a meal that hits all the right notes without trying too hard, this is it. @foodiemsp on Instagram

This place is great! Consistently delivers good service and food. Location and views are also amazing! Highly recommend the main street burger and fries. My favorite fries in the city (ask for a side of ranch). The Caesar is surprisingly good, and all the pizzas have been awesome! The gluten free nuggets are also a great choice. Aster may grab all the attention on St Anthony Main, but I think Hideaway is the real gem.

I loved that they accommodate gluten free and dairy free but I definitely feel like if I’m paying the same price as someone with the full dining experience they could have made better substitutions. My least favorite were the gluten free crackers( at least homemade) that I had instead of their delicious looking bread, some mediocre winter squash, which was bland and would have tasted better with the breadcrumbs and the crispy shiitake mushroom, which was unseasoned and the pesto was not a good sauce for it. I think again, it was a second thought because it needed to be dairy free. Overall, the food was good. I really enjoyed the chickpea blue prawn fritter and the artic char. I think because they didn’t really have to do any substitutions with either. The salad was awesome, bright and full of citrus flavor. And the parsnips and cauliflower were seasoned well.

GF options are not marked on the menu but the staff was knowledgeable and accommodating. They have a GF fryer!

Visiting St. Anthony Main is like traveling to some quaint European village. We sat on the patio of Jefe to celebrate our anniversary. Great place to people watch and get a view of downtown Minneapolis. The food was delicious, of course, but the star of the meal was the dessert. I always appreciate a restaurant that offers gluten-free or friendly options other than swapping out bread on a sandwich. We each had an entree and shared the dessert - that was enough for me. Although, we had to take a secondary stop for my husband as he was still hungry.

The food here is amazing, everything’s prepared very well. Gluten free options are hardly a downgrade. There can occasionally be order mistakes if it’s busy, but the staff is more than happy to correct anything and will do so quickly. Tables and seats are sturdy and clean, and the decor is nice. One-person gender neutral restrooms are appreciated.

Charming setting, great food and all around pleasant atmosphere. Right across the viewpoint of the falls in the Mississippi. Food prices are good, service friendly and quick. A great place to relax on a sunny Saturday morning! Many options with gluten and dairy free.

Sitting in this quiet plant-filled space, taking an early-afternoon breather on a hot Saturday in July: visiting Silver Fern feels like a taste of the Good Life. As I sipped the complexly layered & refreshing zing of a lemon ginger cold brew, I was overwhelmed with a sense of gratitude and appreciation for life’s little pleasures. The two family members who were with me agreed, as we shared a matcha white chocolate cookie (excellent chewy texture & plenty of matcha flavor!) and a savory scone loaded with caramelized onion (and which had an impressively buttery mouthfeel, especially for a gluten-less baked good). The serene and comfy atmosphere of Silver Fern helps set it above your average cafe, and I love the creativity which they put into seasonal drink specials and the care with which their luscious pastries are prepared (including a good array of vegan and gluten-friendly options). Another plus is the menu of sandwiches, salads & other foodstuffs which are a bit more substantial than what’s available at most coffee shops. I hope Silver Fern will continue to grace NE with its unique and exemplary offerings for many years!

We thought we’d try this place after hearing of their post-Covid reopening. I’m so glad we did. What a charming place with friendly staff, good food and comfy seating. I mean it has to be cool with Wes Anderson artwork/photos on the wall. Our server Devon was spot-on. He answered our menu questions, was friendly, offered tips when appropriate..... overall very professional. The food and drinks were fantastic. We tried the special, boar chop with an excellent sauce which came with elote. I had salmon and wild rice (rice subbed for farro risotto due to gluten allergy) which was fixed to perfection. We also shared Brussel sprouts with a maple glaze. E ended sharing the berry pavlova. We found easy street parking, but a public parking lot is a block away.

Pretty good taco joint with many menu items plus gluten free and some alcoholic drinks if needed.
