Top 11 Gluten-Free Spots to Explore in Lakeview District, Birmingham

We love Slice! Our favorite local pizza and beer joint. We’ve never had a pizza that disappointed. I will say, even my gluten-loving husband prefers their GF pizza crust to the regular one! (I do too). White Shadow and Hot Mama are our favorite flavors. Their salads are also amazing! (And generous which we appreciate). Got the cheesecake once and it did NOT disappoint. The wings are good but expensive - you can find more wings for less elsewhere. Can’t beat the $5 wine and draft beer happy hour though!

I have been a loyal Red Cat customer for many years. My wife who is gluten-free has always loved the pumpkin chocolate chip muffins. Recently those gluten-free muffins have been reduced to a third of the original size that they were a month ago. But the price is the same. This is shrink-flation at its most ridiculous level. This is not fair to any of your customers, you could at least try to reduce the price a little bit.

I got the Sante Fe salad with chipotle chicken. The dressing for the salad is good. The combination of salad ingredients was also good. My only critique here is that though the sweet potatoes were diced small, I had more than a few crunchy ones. I’m really here to review the brownie I ordered. I honestly was taking a risk on ordering a gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar free tahini brownie but it is literally the best dessert I’ve had in a long time. Decadent but not too rich. Three quarters through I started to feel sad that it was almost gone. So I put it down only to feel sad that I wasn’t still eating it. It made me want to live a long full life just so I could have the hope of eating another one someday. I’m not writing like this to be cute or clever. I must confess I actually had these thoughts while eating this brownie. ☺️

An amazing dining experience! Dinner with my friends while traveling for work. I had amazing oysters from PEI and the smoked fish dip is next level good. My friend got the pork belly appetizer and loved it. I am gluten intolerant and I had plenty of options and modifications were made available. We all had fish, from Mahi to flounder and everyone was happy. Our server Jonathan was knowledgeable, helpful and attentive without being intrusive. The bar had good options and my French 75 was well balanced and tasty. Spendy,but worth the splurge. I highly recommend this place!

Always a great selection! We had someone in from out of town looking for gluten-free options. She had a few samples and left with a case. Thanks, Hop City!

I visited the Hop City location, and was served the best GLUTEN FREE pizza I’ve ever had! When I say you couldn’t tell the bread was gluten free, I mean it had the same crunch, fluff and moisture as alternative breads. I can’t state how amazing this bread was, you’ll have to go try it your self.

There are few restaurants who allow in-person dining and fewer where the quality of the product is worth your time and money. But, Blueprint on 3rd elevated itself to the top of the Birmingham local food chain and has remained there thanks to the leadership of Owner/Operator Dean and Head Chef Puck!! When I called for what I thought was an impossible order Dean checked with the Chef then emailed and called me back with what was the best meal I’ve had alllllll pandemic and beyond!!! He provided an exquisite 3-course meal mindful of our gluten-free, vegetarian and meat lovers desires that was ready at/before pick-up time which a smiling and happy team presented in symphony!! My goodness, how wonderful an afternoon we had with this meal and we will forever remember the day we dined with Blueprint on 3rd!!!

The food was amazing! I've been trying to eat healthy (no dairy or gluten) and the staff was amazing in helping find options for me. The steak and spinach salad with lemon emulsion was straight up delicious.
