Top 50 Gluten-Free Places Across İstanbul City

francesca console

Good value for money, very friendly and helpful staff. One of the few places in the center that offers a gluten-free menu.

Yummy food, lots of variety. Wasn't to expensive compared to other areas in Istanbul. I am celiac and it was nice to have options for my partner who isn't celiac. Had yummy and beautiful looking desserts. Was too full to eat but took some away with us ❤️ If your near by you have to try....

Arzu Kaşıkçı

A great market and cafe for those who prefer a gluten-free diet and have celiac disease. The prices are quite high, but it is a market where you can find everything you are looking for...

Remarkable in the true sense of the word, that is: worthy of particular regard, respect or consideration compared to others. In fact, this restaurant is notable for its location with respect to the city center (in a side street 500 meters from Hagia Sophia/Blue Mosque); notable for the quality of the food; just as the education, diligence and professionalism of the dining room staff is noteworthy; the friendliness and pleasantness of the owner is more than remarkable; but above all, notable for the competence (particularly of the owner) in knowing how to manage the particular dietary needs linked to celiac disease, in a country where it is difficult to find places equipped in this sense since (good for them) this problem is not widespread. Finally, their habit of offering a dessert at the end of dinner is noteworthy. The only thing I didn't find remarkable was the final bill, which I instead found decidedly honest and moderate! As an expert contributor, I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant.

Good gluten free options, really tasty, friendly staff, great for a quick not too expensive meal.

It's my favorite place when it comes to gluten-free and sugar-free... It's one of the rare places where the entire kitchen is suitable for celiacs, without the risk of contamination... It's also nice that it's a family business. A different pleasure with the k environment.

Brecht en Romy

If you visit Kadıköy it is a good idea to stop here for a gluten-free sandwich or cake. It is super tasty and 100% safe for people with celiac disease or a gluten-free diet.

Janset Özden

The whole menu is great! There are incredibly delicious vegan, gluten-free and sugar-free food and beverages. The employees are also very attentive and polite. I just can't imagine what would have happened if the place was a little bigger🤍🧿

İnci Kaya

Delicious gluten-free pizza, its hard to find places that are actually safe for celiac. It’s a bit pricey, but worth it when you’re craving something nice.

Gam Gam

Beautiful food, lovely service- staff so friendly. 100% recommend - great Gluten free options too

Δημητρα Αντωνοπουλου

Nice gluten-free options, ideal for those with celiac disease!

Courtney Godden

Good food and even better desserts. I am celiac and it was so nice to know that I could eat somewhere safe near Istanbul. Definitely would recommend.

Emma Pullan

Food was delicious, im a coeliac and they took gluten free very serious. Diljan was wonderful and very helpful!

Sabahat Omurlu

I interpret the experience I had here as being beyond extraordinary...🫶I say gluten-free diet is an event, there are so many legendary kebabs, appetizers, desserts, especially a kunefe, I feel like I'm in heaven after so many years...I highly recommend it to those who live to eat like me....🫶💜🙏🏻

Giovanni Martini

Ate very well, even gluten free Excellent waiters Kamir and Barish Special kebab

Yasemin Akgun

It's the best cheesecake I've ever eaten and the atmosphere is fine. I was also very impressed that san sebastian is gluten free. The staff is also friendly, I would definitely recommend it.

Araya Occhial

We found this place near the Galata Tower that makes gluten-free cheesecake. We ordered a cheesecake with chocolate cream on top, delicious!!! The Turkish tea was also very good. The place is small but we immediately found a table with a view near the Tower. Price a little expensive, the slice of cake and tea cost us 10 euros each, but I recommend this place if you have to eat gluten-free.

Dining here was without a doubt one of the highlights of our trip to Istanbul last summer. We ate a delicious variety of grilled dishes along with vegetarian and vegan mezze, and tasty cocktails. We were also accommodated for gluten and lactose intolerances, even with meaty dishes that usually come with bread. The views and atmosphere were serene. Our two main servers, Ibrahim and his female colleague (forgive me for not knowing her name, although Ibrahim and her will precisely know who I am referring to) delighted us with their friendliness, hospitality and genuine goodheartedness. They made our experience unforgettable, even treating us to complimentary pomegranate tea and lots of watermelon, and without a doubt made us keen to visit again one day. If they were not working, I'm sure we would have chatted for hours.

Pete Redmore

Met with a warm welcome and a run down of their ethos of food they serve. Everything home made and all vegetarian,, some vegan and gluten free. We had all the hummus variations with flat bread and falafels which were cooked to perfection. Salty fermented drink and mint yogurt drinks felt like your washing your insides out with goodness. Lovely concept and flavours and choice right up there.

Özge Elcan

The view is wonderful, the staff is very attentive, the menu is very rich. Gluten-free and vegan options are available. Gluten free lahmacun was nice. Gluten-free lavash was also served alongside Adana.

Tunc Kaynak

Years ago, I would order a variety of gluten-free breads from the one in İstinye Park and come back from my hometown to pick them up. I saw it on my way and entered. Their varieties have increased even more. I like it so much. I will load up on bread again and go. But first I will try the muffins and savory varieties. Yummy...Hmmm...mmmmm...I ate it. As you can see...it's very nice and sweet...

I called them on Wednesday to order profiteroles, they said they were very busy on Thursday, so we agreed on Friday. But when Friday came, they neither responded to the phone nor to the messages. When I wrote again the next day, saying that what you did was very shameful, I got a reply saying "don't comment without knowing, etc., we had hospital work etc." .So, if a business that takes an order cannot deliver the order, it should call and state this itself so that the customer can be informed. It is a bit funny that they do not return the phone calls and are expected to wonder if something has happened to them. They constantly cancel your order from Trendyol or any other food platform. To no avail. No one should expect anything by saying this.. (I think they should be kicked out of such platforms, do not hesitate to complain about this) As a celiac patient, unfortunately, we are forced to depend on even the smallest business. But since it opened, this place has not taken itself one step further, on the contrary, it has become much more mediocre. I think I would not choose this place even if I were to go to the other end of Istanbul. Literally, their style and management. disgrace

Emma OH

A good vegan and gluten free option (beetroot hummus & avocado on gf toast). Menemen was good too. Nice coffee and good service.

L D Featherstone

A very unique pub! Good gluten-free options, I just wish they stocked the Gluten-free Efes beer which is available in many other Istanbul pubs! Really friendly staff who were happy to explain the gluten-free food options to me.

Tegan Burns

Absolutely absurd cost for gluten free. Went based on the reviews advertising GF bread and was charged 390 lira EXTRA for my breakfast to replace my bread. Never seen prices like that before anywhere in the world. When I questioned it (as I assumed there was a mistake) the waiter insisted that is the cost

Bahar şimşek

Ravioli is raw, meatballs are delicious, hamburger meatballs are raw. Gluten-free meatballs come with regular pita, unless you specify. The answer is, are you completely gluten-free? You go and the sink doesn't work, you can go another time and they say it's closed. We went because of lack of options. We decided not to go there again because there was no tradesmanship.

Jacque Bertin

One of the delicious places to visit in Kadıköy. They even make the pita they put in the Iskender sandwich gluten-free, nice idea. If you ever pass by, I recommend you to stop by.

Stephanie Winner

We wanted to try the authentic Ottoman foods and Matbah delivered! Some dishes are unusual - stuffed calamari and stuffed melon. My celiac husband received gluten-free bread and the menu was clearly labeled. Service was very good and we received a gift of a bead pendant at the end of our meal. We had visited Istanbul before and were very surprised that the restaurant was nearly empty by 10pm. The other diners were locals, Spaniards, and Americans.

Enrico Picari

All food is fresh and prepared at the moment. Everything on the menu is vegan and celiac people like me have glutenfree options (not the buns or pida though!). I had a lovely chat with the owner, who is really passionate about her job. I’ll come back for sure next time I’ll be in Istanbul!

Gluten free bakery

Leo König

The Cheesecake was amazing!!! And gluten free!

meltem yagan

We went at around 10:00 on the weekend, although everything should be fresh, as you know, there are posts on Instagram about fresh out of the oven 😂 so many. 4 bagels, 4 different types of pastries, all of them were so hard, stale and cold that I have difficulty in expressing them. I think comparing it like a stone would be enough. They were all very tasteless. As a celiac patient, I have to eat completely gluten-free. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the worst gluten-free products I have ever eaten were here. The glasses were dirty, the tea was ice cold. We were the only table, even though it was a very boutique place, the service and cleanliness were disappointing. The people serving had a very unprofessional and even disrespectful approach. The gentleman standing at the cash register was very polite and friendly. We thank him. The whole experience was disappointing from start to finish. We would like to thank them for reminding us once again that the facts have nothing to do with the Instagram page.

Andrea Grimaldi

Very intimate and clean place, we came after reading the nice reviews for the gluten free menu (it really was). Joseph served us with great kindness and precision, very good typical food. I highly recommend it and hope to return soon.

Sue C

Really delicious food and great service, very helpful for gluten free food and waitress had excellent English, we'll go back.

Laura Cejudo Iglesias

A wonderful experience. The first thing is to say that this restaurant has food adapted for people intolerant to gluten, a big plus in its favor! The second thing is the staff, wonderful, fast, attentive, fun! They asked us to dance and taught us the typical steps of Turkish dance, it was an incredible night! Some dishes come with a show included and the food is delicious! We also ordered a hookah and it was spectacular! If I return to Istanbul, without a doubt this will be the first restaurant I return to!

Isabella R

5 beautiful atmosphere with live music the waiters are ready to solve every need, I can't eat gluten and they have gluten free choices complete with bread! Nice environment, they also have a panoramic terrace overlooking the blue mosque. Thanks we will be back

gerald Sedgwick

Wasn’t really impressed and left. just the odd desert served in what seems to be a Pizza Express. Being Celiac, I'm afraid I would not trust the place. Felt cheated after walking a fair way to get there.

Christine

The best vegetarian cafe experience I’ve had in Istanbul. Delicious gluten free quiche! It’s a quiet and cozy atmosphere tucked away.

Ruth Updegraff

Top quality Turkish dishes in a cafeteria style. Authentic and delicious, lots of options for vegetarian and gluten free diners.

aaron mendez

Good location, gluten free food.

DEISE COSTA

Delicious food, friendly staff. I'm celiac and they offered warm gluten-free bread for my menemen - such a unique experience I only had there during my visit to Istanbul. They also have many coffee options, I had a delicious Colombian brew. Highly recommended

Gizem Çelik

A business that has gluten-free pizza options but does not pay attention to cross-contamination. They bake gluten-free and gluten-free pizzas in the same oven. Therefore, it is not suitable for people with celiac disease. I didn't like the thin dough and nice taste of their pizzas.

Esra Ahmed

I only went because they have a gluten-free section. The cookies and cakes are all made with potato starch and potato flour (at least that is what they told me). The prices were fair for the quality, i am used to paying even more as a celiac person. The cookies price was 900 TL/Kg and i was allowed to mix different kinds of cookies, which all taste amazing! The muffins are extremely big and cost around 150-175TL depending on which type. Needless to say, it was the best chocolate/cherry muffin i have had in years. They also had potato buns (which is very fluffy but have a hard shell), and salty pastries, which i have not tried. Additionally, they have a lot of other pastries, which included gluten, that looked incredible! P.S. the products are also Xanthan and oat free.

Zohal S

Just ate at Reyhun Restaurant. Food was delicious and the service was excellent. They kindly checked for us if the food had gluten. Hands down the best service we have received so far in Istanbul. Unfortunately there was a large group of people sat across a few tables who were being incredibly loud, but the manager came to ask them to quieten down.

Marghe Semeraro

We ate very well, very kind and helpful waiters, excellent gluten free options, Cesar the waiter who served us was very friendly and nice!

Abdulaziz Alharbi

Very good gluten free pasta 👌

Yasin

It's good because it has gluten-free products. The interior of the cafe is a bit basic, but that's the concept. It's bad that they serve it in plastic cups

Melike Okucu

It was a place we needed a lot for those who eat gluten-free, sugar-free and vegan. The focaccia breads are very good, just like the real thing.
