Top 39 Gluten-Free Spots to Discover in Highlands/Perkins, Baton Rouge

We were passing through on a road trip and needed something relatively quick so we could keep moving. I called in our order as we were driving. The employee who answered was very friendly and quick, and we were told our order would be ready in about 20 minutes. It turned out to be about 30 minutes, but the pizza was hot & delicious. We ordered a 14" Gluten-Free pizza with extra cheese. They were very generous with the cheese (a big plus for me since eating GF usually leaves a bit to be desired...and cheese makes everything better!). Also, for those who don't know, gluten-free pizza crusts are usually only 10" - 12", so it was nice to find one that was a better size...and big enough that the 3 of us could split it. I am disappointed to have found such a great place that is nowhere near where we live. However, if we are ever passing through again, we will definitely stop.

I had lunch here with my son, who has Celiac’s Disease. The manager - Blake - was AMAZING. After talking with him, I had full confidence that they were going to make sure my son didn’t accidentally get gluten. When he ingests gluten, he throws up for 4-6 hours, so it’s serious. Blake even went out of his way and fried up the tortilla chips in a separate pan so my son could enjoy them. Almost all Mexican restaurants have gluten-free tortilla chips, but they’re contaminated because they’re cooked in the same fryer as things with flour. I felt like we were Blake’s own family, the way he took care of us. I highly recommend Tio Javi’s. The food was outstanding.

It was delicious as always. And I appreciate how easy eating gluten free is.

Spontaneity on our anniversary We stopping to try Torchy's Taco was a spontaneous choice, but we will visit often from now on. Our visit started with a cheerful welcome and patient help from Michelle, at the register. After helping us find some interesting lunch choices, she followed up later by bringing my bride a gluten free menu to take home with us. The tacos were wonderful, but there was was more to appreciate. Felipe, the manager stopped by, asking how we were enjoying our meal - not an obligatory and cursory question. He was keenly interested in hearing about our experience. Learning we were first time guests, he came back later with chips, queso and salsa to try. Cleanliness, good food, friendly service, and caring attitudes checked all the boxes. We recommend Torchy's Taco and we'll be back soon.

I love it this place, they have a good food quality, I ordered a gluten free hamburger and was delicious, I didn’t remember when was the last time I can enjoy a hamburger, and the service was amazing!! The kids have a great time drawing in the chalkboard.

10/10 for those of us with Celiac Disease and of course great service for those without.

Clean place, friendly staff. Only complaint is that cold gluten free noodles are quite gross. Unlike regular noodles, gf noodles get tough and hard when served cold, not appetizing

4.5 stars. The service and food was good. No complaints there. A big plus for me is they have gluten free buns and a whole separate GF menu. The wait was really long (an hour) BUT it was mother's day and we did get there at lunch time. Just know to make a reservation in advance because this place can be busy, but that's because it's good.

Gluten Free Chantilly cake is great! We are very thankful to have found a place local that makes Gluten Free Chantilly cakes and it certainly exceeded our expectations!

What a delight. First time for take out and all I could hear was mmmmm. Mmmmmmm. Mmmmmmm $&&)&& this food is unbelievable. I /we have tried vegan food from all parts of the country and our food was unbelievable and has become according to members of the family (teens to seniors) “ my favorite place for food ever!” “Don’t ever suggest Dominoes cheese /gluten free pizza EVER! Lol” A true delight. S Bridges

Always a pleasure here but this time was noteworthy. I just had to start a gluten free diet due to an allergy and this was my first time at a restaurant trying to order following that. My server, whose name I have unfortunately forgotten, was extremely patient, helpful and understanding. Also props to the kitchen staff for taking extra precautions and answering all questions. Accommodations like this should never go unnoticed!

Ordered a gluten free king cake and picked it up the next day. The ordering process was super easy, although I didn't receive a confirmation or anything like that. Unfortunately, my king cake had been contaminated with gluten (had a reaction) and it was not filled with cream cheese as ordered. Instead, it was filled with double cinnamon (I think?) because the entire center of the cake was unsweetened, gooey cinnamon. It was covered with a flavorless icing that made the entire middle soggy. Way too heavy for a king cake. I reached out via Facebook messenger, because their voicemail was full when I tried to call about my experience. They replied quickly and said they would refund me and I should dispose of the cake. That was 7 days ago. I reached out again via FB on Monday - no one has replied and they are showing as unread. I attempted to call today and got a message saying that their voicemail was STILL full. I waited a minute and tried calling again, just to be sure. Immediately it went to the voicemail error message and I received a text from the company asking me to stop "calling repeatedly". For obvious reasons, I cannot recommend this business.

Having savored the delights of Insomnia Cookies on numerous occasions, I've consistently experienced commendable service. While occasional understaffing issues were evident in the past, my latest visit during peak hours revealed a well-staffed team. However, logistical coordination seemed lacking, despite accurate order fulfillment. To elevate the overall experience, refining synchronization among staff could contribute to a smoother operation. Despite these logistical observations, the cookies themselves were a delight – consistently fresh and delectably tasteful. Insomnia's commitment to inclusivity with vegan and gluten-free options is noteworthy, catering to those with dietary restrictions. Admittedly, wait times can be extended during peak hours and concurrent baking sessions, but the allure of enjoying warm, soft, and freshly baked cookies is a worthwhile indulgence. In conclusion, Insomnia Cookies remains a top recommendation for its delightful treats, with a potential for an even more seamless experience through improved coordination.

Just want you expect. Great service in a demanding environment. Clean. And as a gluten free bread guy, they treated me and my allergy well. I always stop in when I’m in the area.

They're gluten free on parts of their menu and their flavours are bomb af!

This is a very cute coffee shop, great latte, homemade syrups- I tried the lavender and it was delicious! Their toasts are delicious, and they have Gluten Free options as well. It was exceptionally crowded, and full of students, and that wasn’t what I was looking for environmentally, but otherwise a great place!

I always come here for amazing gluten free food. I have SEVERE celiacs disease and this is one of the only spots I can trust. Been here hundreds of times and never gotten sick. Mary at the highland location was extra kind today and made me the best steak bowl, so I had to write a review! Great job Cava at hitting all the marks.

So I wanted to order a personal supreme pizza with no black olives. The girl said they can only do that if they could use gluten free dough for the base. Well I don't like gluten free bread. They literally could NOT make a personal pizza to order unless it's gluten free. Whatever. I moved on. I tried to order the calzone without ricotta cheese. She said that was impossible, too. I left. I literally can't understand how you couldn't just NOT put ricotta cheese into a calzone. All you have to do is assemble the calzone as normal, and then add two of the three cheeses you normally would, instead of added all 3.

I love that they offer plant based cheese and gluten-free crackers.

This is an amazing shop with so many fresh vegetables and fruit. Also, vegan ice cream and gluten-free chocolate muffins are the best. Even the cashier said it's one of the best top !" And i entirely agree with her. There is everything, alcohol,pasta, fruit, meat, basically everything, including flowers and plants 🪴 check my photos and videos if you are curious😍🙂😊
