Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots to Explore in Castle Rock

Disappointed and not really worth the $$$. I could make gluten free better at home and get more for the same money. $10+ for two items

Delicious pizza. Friendly staff. They have gluten-free crust

Richard Winters

I was misguided by the best reviews in town. The pizza is very average, especially for the high price. Very skinny on ingredients and the crust wasn't great. On a positive note, the gluten free crust was remarkable. I would order both pizzas gluten free next time if I liked them.

Amazing food & a reasonable price! Gluten free options were fantastic. Great atmosphere & caring staff. I think this place will give other restaurants a run for their money!!

Went for happy hour and had the best blackberry margaritas. The flatbread is so good, and they offer gluten-free, which is hard to find.

Amanda Lontine

We got the panang curry and pad thai and both were flavorful and delicious! There were plenty of gluten free options and we thought the menu was very reasonably priced for yummy food!

🫥Disappointing Experience Despite Planning Ahead Yesterday, we dined at Great Divide with a group of about twelve people. We had made our reservation more than a week in advance, hoping to ensure a smooth visit. Unfortunately, despite our efforts, the experience was unnecessarily frustrating and fell far short of what I’d expect from an established restaurant. As someone with dietary restrictions, I try to plan ahead to avoid putting staff on the spot. Before our visit, I checked Great Divide’s website and tried calling to confirm gluten-free and dairy-free options. I was assured over the phone that the in-person menu would clearly list allergens and that the waitstaff was experienced and could answer questions easily. However, upon arrival, our tables were not ready, despite the reservation. We had to wait for extra seating to be added after being initially seated—which, as anyone dining with kids knows, is not a small inconvenience. Once we settled in, I asked our server about gluten-free options, since the menu (both online and in-person) offered no allergen details. Her response was, “I don’t know gluten. I’m not a gluten person.” She seemed confused and even slightly annoyed that I was asking, despite the assurances I’d received on the phone. She then had to go speak to the kitchen. Which is fine but that is also what I had asked to do / tried to do several times prior to being there and was brushed off and told that everything would be ready and clear when we arrived. Beyond the dietary confusion, service overall was VERY slow. It took nearly 40 minutes just to receive drinks, and even longer for some who ordered simple items like lemonade. Meanwhile, no manager ever came by to check on us or address the clear issues, despite being made aware that our group was agitated. When the food finally arrived, my meal (the half bird) was disappointingly underseasoned and completely lacking flavor. I truly believe Great Divide could do better. My advice to management: • Support your staff so they’re equipped to handle large parties confidently, especially regarding dietary questions. • Consider assigning a second server for big groups to reduce stress and long wait times. • Provide clearer allergen information on your menu to avoid confusion and help guests with food sensitivities feel safe and welcome. • Have management check in proactively when significant delays or issues arise. We were looking forward to a pleasant outing, and it’s unfortunate that a situation that could have been easily managed became so stressful. I hope Great Divide takes this feedback to heart and improves both their service and guest experience. TL;DR: large group tables not ready despite a reservation, extremely slow service, staff unprepared for group size and food allergy questions even though I called ahead, no manager checked in even after waiting over 30 min for drinks and food was bland. A frustrating experience that should have been avoidable.

It was so good, I forgot to take photos. These cupcakes are not only gorgeous, but hands down the BEST cupcakes I have ever had in my entire existence. I'm gluten free, and even my husband (who is not) agreed that they are better than almost all regular cupcakes he's ever had. They're so so so sooooooooo perfect. You seriously cannot even tell. They're so good it scared me that they may have accidentally switched or mistakingly given normal cupcakes. They're not too sweet, so flavorful, moist, and they don't use garbage butter cream. I can't handle it. It's so dangerous how good they are. I seriously, do not know how much more I can emphasize the absolute perfection. Ambrosia. Symphony. What an amazing little gem in downtown Castle Rock. Do NOT hesitate to get one. In fact, run. Olympic speed walk. This is genuinely for the sake of your happiness.

We love Crave Real Burgers and miss the Colorado Springs location since it has closed. They offer fantastic gluten free buns for their hamburgers. My only wish is that they could make gluten free french fries in their own fryer. However, this is a great dining experience.

Kate Smith

OMG the best HOMEMADE gluten-free pasta I've ever had. Love this place and it's so much fun!

Kent P.

Love the burgers and fries here. Gluten free bun is great.

Justin Kodiak

Usually this a 5 but I am gluten free and they don't make the gluten free items in the afternoon separately and don't care about cross contamination at this location. Really unfortunate.

Katina Gaddie

We get pizza every week and have tried all of the places-Granelli’s remains my favorite (even in the gluten free category!) consistently great and lovely customer service too!

This is my favorite coffee shop in Castle Rock (and we have a lot of great ones). The staff here are always friendly and answer any questions someone that’s new to coffee may have. I love their seasonal drinks and that they have pre wrapped gluten free options from Waive the Grain which is a dedicated GF bakery.

Jonah Hunt

Great food, owner, and staff, very accommodating. Many gluten free options.

Hippie Mommie7

I love going here. They have homemade gluten free pasta and gluten free Alfredo sauce, which is tough to find. The food isn’t fancy, but it’s solid and a bit old school in a positive way. The service is great and if you bring kids they have coloring books, which is great for “bored” children. My kids always get the pepperoni pizza. I forgot to take a pic of my food as I dug in right away.

Kinch Reindl

New favorite place to grab a burger with gluten free bun, fries and smash sauce.

Riley Schultz

Best GF Pizza around! The crust is fluffy and crispy on the outside! Seriously have never had such a good crust before!

Just attempted to eat here but wasn't able to. Let them know at the start of my order i am dairy free and gluten free due to severe allergy. I ordered a giant hot honey chicken sandwich. Asked them to clean the grill to limit cross contamination. They refused and out the meat right down on top of older cooked food. They then proceeded to cut the pepperoni with a sliver that just finished cutting cheese. I asked if they could clean the slicer so i don't get sick and again if they can please clean the grill as i cant eat that meat. They did clean the slicer but not the grill. Told them just cancel it as I don't want to go to the hospital today. Me and my wife were the only customer at the time. And a response of "you want us to do all that for you" is absolutely unacceptable. Asked for owners card and manager said apologized and told me they can remake it and clean the grill when I said I didn't want to go to the hospital today. I shouldn't have to stress allergic reactions and a hospital visit to get a sandwich that wont make me sick. It takes a minute to clean these items i work in a kitchen.

Love this place! Almost more than the attached restaurant 🤭 The young gentleman helping me was so incredibly kind and generous with his time. He explained that they offer custom orders for whatever you need whether charcuterie, meat cuts, etc. They have amazing gluten free sub bread which I ordered along with the Philly sub which was phenomenal. They have a ton of different sub options, as well as beer, wine and charcuterie boards. Don't forget to get a punch card! ***oh and I bought some filet mignon to grill at home and the quality was great!

Victoria Goodyear

Emily was great. The kids loved the chicken strips, and I thought that the gluten-free buns was delicious. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try.

Margaret Ragsdale

Red Robin has to be one of the best gluten friendly burger places in my opinion. They cater to your needs and have a great GF selection! I never worry if I will have a flare up and can eat my meal with a peace of mind.

I usually don’t like to write negative reviews, and when this restaurant was on Wilcox, I would have. The new location has a new ownership team, and it shows in the best way! The service is phenomenal, the presentation is beautiful, and the food is crave-worthy. I could probably eat the food every day it’s so good. We went for lunch and had fresh lemonade, and chicken shawarmas, and a gyro plate. I told our server I couldn’t eat gluten and she brought out sliced cucumber instead of pita. The hummus was fresh and the tahini they used was perfect! The toum that came with my dish was the best I’ve ever had, and I wanted to lick the container clean. We’ll definitely go back, and I’m so happy we took a risk and tried it again. It’s a completely different restaurant.

This place is just great all-around. Super friendly staff, gluten-friendly menu, delicious food, fun atmosphere. They also seem to treat their employees very well based on my sister's experience working here. Support this local, yummy treasure!

This was a tough one because I was really looking forward to a seafood Benedict. We drove up from the north part of the springs on Sunday because the reviews and the place looked pretty fantastic. In a nutshell, my wife got the king crab Benedict, and I got the crab cake Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was fantastic. Although, all our eggs were basically hard boiled. I love eggs Benedict and everybody knows the eggs need to be a runny center. When you drop 30 bucks a plate, you expect the eggs to be right. I’m sure I could’ve said something, but when your food comes out altogether and ready, the last thing you wanna do is return your plate because the eggs are wrong. I was ready to eat. I feel that’s one aspect of an eggs Benedict You just have to get right. A couple other small things, When we ordered, we let the server know my wife was gluten-free. A few minutes after the food arrived, the server came back and said that the potatoes are not gluten-free. She offered to swap out with seasonal fruit, which was just fine. When we got our bill, we were charged four dollars for the potatoes that my wife couldn’t eat. They took it off, but just make sure and look at your bill. I was able to eat the potatoes and I’ll have to say they were soft. When I say soft, it’s like they had been sitting in a warming tray on a buffet, and I scooped it out and put it on my plate. I love breakfast potatoes and I only ate a few bites. Due to my wife having the gluten allergy, I’ve sampled many many types of gluten-free breads, and English muffins. What they served my wife’s eggs Benedict on was not a gluten-free English muffin. It tasted more like gluten-free pancakes. It was even a touch sweet. Overall, the service was good and the atmosphere really nice but when you’re paying $30 for eggs, Benedict and all the things happened above, it’s challenging to want to return.
