Top 20 Gluten-Free Spots to Explore in Northern Quarter, Manchester

This is a home styleChinese restaurant. Service was outstanding and the staff were very attentive and kept asking us if everything was ok. There is a separate gluten-free menu and the choice is reasonable. The main menu is not extensive but covers the usual dishes. I was slightly disappointed in the quality. The gluten free lemon chicken was lacking in sufficient lemon taste but the chicken breast was great. The non coeliac meat dish was very tasty yet overpowered by the use of too much starch in the sauce. Spring rolls were did not contain enough filling. The oil in which they were fried was perhaps not hot enough. The hot and sour soup contained chicken and shrimps and was tasty, although the thickening starch was a bit too much. Overall, excellent service and great for coeliacs who very rarely get the chance to eat Chinese food. Highly recommended.

The coeliac pizza is flatbread not pizza! .. Not the nicest pizza I’ve every had, but it’s a decent option. They have a gluten free pizza which is cooked in the same oven as regular pizzas, but they have a coeliac “pizza” which is basically a flatbread.

Great gluten free pie options, the service was lovely. There were a couple of issues with our meal but they dealt with them well.

They have some lovely gluten free brunch options available and a dedicated gluten free toaster for the bread. We go here every other weekend for brunch.

They don’t have a separate gluten free menu but almost everything can be made gluten free except from 2 or 3 dishes. They do have gluten in the kitchen so cross contamination is a possibility even if they take every precaution. Had the avocado on toast with poached egg for breakfast and a coconut flat white. The avocado on toast came with GF brioche bread which was very nice. The dish itself was nicely prepared with some lovely flavours. I’m a bit of a coffee snob and found the flat white was quite average. If I lived in Manchester I would definitely go back to try other dishes on the menu.

The place is and will always be amazing!! Budget friendly food and the best cocktails. We went for dinner and genuinely had a great time!! The food is finger liking good, and the best part is they got a gluten-free menu and vegan menu catering to our needs. The cocktails were simply amazing xx. The waiting staff were great, too. A bit loud with the music, but apart from that, it's really good. Definitely recommend.

The atmosphere and look of the venue is great but if you are needing a gluten free option be prepared to feel excluded as there was nothing except the craft beer vender. I have to say I expected way more from a venue that comes across as a modern and cosmopolitan food destination and hoped that there would be some venders providing some allergen friendly options but disappointingly there seemed little to no effort from them. Despite there being no allergen info against it on the menu, I thought steak and Fries would be an easy gluten free option but when I asked the server at the counter I was blutlently told there is cross contamination on their grill and they can provide no gaurentees. As I was out with family and didnt want to ask everyone to change their plans I thought to take a measured risk and go for steak and fries. It was over cooked for a medium steak and for £20 it seemed overpriced. To make things worse the steak and fries were covered in rock salt which took away any taste the food would of had. I didn't feel comfortable returning my food given the way I was spoken to when enquiring about allergens. The gluten free beer options were great, top marks to those guys for making the effort 😍

The tastiest food and a really lovely vibe. Generous portions, too! My gluten free diet due to Coeliac disease, catered for beautifully. In Manchester? Pay these guys a visit. Once you’ve tasted the food, you’ll thank me! You’re welcome…

Best gluten free pizza have ever tried! Super friendly staff + atmosphere. Loved the whole informal relaxed vibe yet attentive service!

Everything on their menu is 100% gluten free. They are stationed next to a pizza stand so they do make people aware that there could be flour in the air. I’ve eaten here a number of times and been fine. They’re the best tacos in town.

Lovely little place with amazing roast dinner. I'm gluten free so couldn't have the yorkies but everything else was amazing! Highly recommend the roast pork: best I've had in years. Also dog friendly and a cool little place

Lots of gluten free options available. Caribbean inspired menu with lots of spicy options. Gluten free food cooked and prepared in separate area of the kitchen. Coeliac friendly place!

Service extremely slow - non existent interaction with staff, we just walked in and found a table after waiting a few minutes. Wasn't that busy when we visited, ordered at the bar instead of downloading an app. Very disappointing portion size for the price, food was also not that hot. Tasted ok but wouldn't rush back. The booths with individual TVs were a nice touch to be able to see the TV if you wish. Music very loud so not the best for small babies/children. Very detailed menus - separate ones for gluten free and vegan. Great choice but not well presented.

I absolutely love the place! Perfect for gluten free and super cute. It is quite small but this is part of its charm. Service is amazing and so welcoming :) I recommend any of the brownies and the gluten free bagel is out of this world !
