Top 15 Gluten-Free Places Across Salem

Mickey Crump

Extensive gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options! The gluten free “spaceballs” are meant to be gf garlic bread. It’s just a pizza crust with seasonings and parmesan shaker cheese. I tried the gf cauliflower bites and they were alright! They were baked, not fried. The pizza was pretty good but nothing special.

Lacy Hartselle

Best breakfast sandwich ever! I’m gluten free, but my husband is not. We both agreed that the gf herb and cheese bread is insanely delicious and perfectly paired with the north shore sandwich. Also their dirty chai is yummy. They don’t miss here! 💕

I wanted to like this place but the service was really terrible. It took us an hour to receive an order of chicken fingers and they still messed up the order fairly seriously (we ordered gluten free chicken fingers and stated that it was due to an allergy multiple times). When our order finally came out (45 minutes after the couple that were were with received their food), it was definitely not gluten free. It took several minutes to flag down our server to ask if the order was GF, she took it back to the kitchen, and 10 minutes later she came out with a new plate and just said “this one is definitely gluten free.” No acknowledgement or apology for almost getting us sick or the hour that it took to receive our food, and we still paid full price. Which $15+ for 4 chicken fingers and some tater tots is insane. I watched the kitchen runner bring food to the wrong table at least 4 or 5 times. Just blindly asking people “did you order this?” The lack of attention could get someone sick when dealing with food allergies. Half of the arcade games were either out of order or in desperate need of service. I really wanted to like this place but we left feeling ripped off.

Food is great; lots of gluten-free options clearly marked on the menu. The staff was friendly & service was pretty great. The location, tucked away from the main drag and yet in eyesight of most everything is fantastic & makes for epic people-watching.

Excellent gluten-free options

AMAZING GLUTEN FREE FOOD

Michele Weed

Great food, drinks and atmosphere! Plus an extra added bonus that everything can be made gluten free and safe for celiacs!

Jess S

Both the fish chowder and the clam chowder are marked gf on the menu, but after I ordered the waitress came back and said they are not anymore. Pretty disappointing because I came here for the chowder and it’s been good before.

Christine Fiore

The Salem location doesn't have gluten-free options, but I was told other locations do have GF options. The smoothie I ordered was really good

Joe Nash

Absolutely great location with an excellent selection of seafood and sushi. Lovely views and the service was friendly and accommodating. Plenty of vegan and gluten free options and they had gluten free soy sauce.

John Carper

Gluten free options. The GF Focaccia was excellent. Sandwiches were so big and yummy. Also enjoyed a GF chocolate espresso dessert. As a WV resident, it was neat to be in a place so far away featuring what I am so used to seeing back home. Go Mountaineers!

We ordered three pizzas for delivery and only two were delivered. The gluten free pizza was not delivered. PZA uses DoorDash for delivery - their choice and one pays PZA directly. Upon the driver explaining they only received two pizzas and I watched the delivery driver the whole way and they came directly to the delivery address. I also checked the drivers car. I called the restaurant and the person the answered insisted they handed the driver three pizzas and would not honor the fact that three pizzas were paid for and only two made and delivered. The restaurant insisted it was a door dash issue. Again the restaurant contracts out door dash so there is no means by which to put in a complaint with door dash. The person that answered at the restaurant hung up on me the customer and become very argumentative. It does appear from other reviews this is a trend. Please don’t order from this restaurant for delivery they do not honor their customers orders and are extremely rude. UPDATE I have changed my review to service of 5 stars and included the fact that the pizza was very good. The owner contacted me directly and is making everything right. I would go back and recommend that with such high customer service that you should check them out if in the area.

I order gluten free pizza this evening and when got it was not what I expected I got a pizza at this place its was hard and dry

Jenifer Murphy

The ice cream is fantastic AND they have gluten free cones!

Renae Rockwood

Great soup and friendly staff. Tons of gluten free soup options too!

Veronica Volk

Pizza was AMAZING. I don’t know if it’s the garlic oil or what they put on this pizza, but it was so flavorful we loved it! Really reasonably priced and we were even able to take some left over back to the hotel to munch on later!! They have gluten free options, and really loved the patio by the water and the fact that this place wasn’t PACKED. We didn’t participate in bowling but would like to before we leave.

Lauren Darchi

Food was great and they have gluten free options as well as a gluten free frier! The gluten free bun was very good too one of the best I’ve had.

Kyrie Bean

A good place in Salmon, where everyone can find something. The fish and chips were pretty good, though you don’t get as much fish as expected for the price. I also recommend the fig and cheese flatbread, the gluten-free flatbread was also very good.

Climber Trader

Mexican food place that’s friendly with a good set of menu items. Fajitas were very good. Veggie bowl was tasty. My tacos really didn’t have much taste but were fine. Limeade was ordered by many and was too sweet and lacking lime flavor. Lime wedges appeared quickly on request. Margaritas were tasty. Allergens are an issue here with much cross-contamination. BUT, they know about it. Expect limited choices if this applies to you. I did have to ask about each item regarding gluten, and they did not volunteer glutenfree options. This was likely because they were busy and not used to or trained on working with diners with restrictions. I would go back but only at a time that wasn’t too busy so I could ask about items. They have salsas that look interesting, too. A gluten-free fryer for chips and marking menu items as GF would go a long way here. I’m sure those with dairy, egg, and other allergies would feel similarly.

Good organic and gluten free options. Also a nice space to relax as well as friendly staff. Doesn’t get much better than this.

BxrningPxle

Great service. i think that sausage egg and cheese wrap is the best wrap i’ve ever had.It also had gluten free options for my mom with celiac!

Hannah

Gluten free desserts tend to be very dry and dense, but not here! This place has MASTERED gluten free brownies! Best I have ever had!

alyssa Lundstrom

Great gluten free selection. The manager even confirmed all the food was free of my allergens. They did accidentally send my salad with croutons, which was a letdown, but otherwise was a great experience.

kirty keseley

High tea was great! Gluten free options. I don’t like tea unless it’s at high tea and the tea here is wonderful. So many to choose from.

K Hunter

Great place offering comfort food like grilled cheese sandwiches and hot dogs. All sandwiches can be made with vegan cheese and seitan. Hot dogs are Field Roast. Asked the waitress and all mayo is vegan. Gluten free options are also available!

Lauren Archambault

I recently eloped and chose this restaurant as our after-ceremony dinner as I needed a place that could make gluten free meals and offered vegetarian options. I’ve enjoyed many of Indian restaurants in other parts of the state and was looking forward to trying this one. I should have trusted my gut that this wouldn’t be a pleasant experience when I got an extremely rude man on the phone while placing the reservation. Every single waiter was pushy, rude, and checked out. They constantly said “yep, yep, yep”, didn’t bother remembering who ordered what, placing dishes wherever was a spot and telling us to pass them, and inserting themselves into the table to move our plates. My party constantly felt confused and rushed. The restaurant wasn't even a quarter filled, and the staff acted like it was inconvenience that we were there. The food wasn’t anything to write home about. Hot, but flavorless. Everything fried was extremely dark — they would do well to change their oil more frequently. The mixed drinks were large, yet watered down. I’ve never felt so unwelcome and disappointed at a restaurant before. Their rude behavior and lackluster food completely soured my wedding night.

tSunami pizza was delicious and the owner was awesome! Gluten free Parma! was nice and crispy with good texture and flavor!

Shelby o'neil

Katie Honneywell

Calamari was phenomenal. Great Alcohol selection and Service was great! Definitely not "bar" food. This place rocks, kudos to the chef and all the staff!! My wife was especially excited with the big selection of Gluten free items. Thank you

mary whitcher

Kyle, Mallory and Aden were very kind and took a gluten allergy serious even on a busy busy first Saturday of summer! Great job

Kate Hardwick

The food was good, really good that they offer gluten free bagels and it’s a nice area to sit outside, although the service was average.

Erica Grigley

A must if you visit Salem. Right in the middle of everything. Staff is super friendly. The best French toast and they have lots of gluten-free options. This place deserves 5 🌟 🤩

Olivia Hile

My husband and I have eaten here both times we’ve visited from Virginia, and this past time we brought a bunch of friends. They accommodated our big group in a timely manner, and were very attentive with their service. The food was as amazing as I remembered it, and I love that I can get my burger on a salad instead of a bun as I am gluten sensitive. The fries are to die for, and their portions are great for the prices.

Jan Jan Moon

His restaurant is new and was suggested by a fresh who has celiac. Had a great dinner here last Friday night. Wonderful french selections with a tiny bit of a twist. We arrived with 2 celiacs in our party and our host was able to accommodate. I had the pressed chicken and it was wonderful! If someone at Bernadette is reading. Please... please please 🙏 get a dedicated GF frier. I really, REALLY want to eat your French fries. And... as your chef should know.... pom frites should be finished at a higher temp than your fried food. If you are cooking your food at the temp that is needed for a yummy fry then.... ya food isn't being cooked right. I would be there ever damn week for some french style fries. Just saying ❤️

Jenny

Far From The Tree offers a variety of ciders that you just can't find anywhere else! I can't say enough about the candy apple and cotton candy ciders! The staff are very friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about the ciders they serve. Note: No food served here but you're welcome to bring your own! They offer gluten free (with the exception of hopped cider) ciders.

Kristin Pangallo

My family and I have enjoyed a few meals at Tepeyac at this point, and they have all been fantastic. I've tried a few different tacos, all were delicious but I just had the carnitas today and ... YYYUUUUMMM. My youngest daughter, who is a little picky, was delighted that they made her favorite taco for her - corn tortilla with avocado and cheese. And my oldest daughter (who has celiac) was THRILLED that they fried the tortillas separately so that she could enjoy a GF tostada - she ate it all and loved every bite. Not only was the food outstanding (flavorful, fresh, and balanced) but the people who work there are kind and delightful. They made sure that everyone in my party of tricky eaters enjoyed our meal together. Also, for all you Salem Youth Soccer families, this is a fantastic place to get take out for those nights at McGrath. Drop off the kids at practice, go get some tacos, come back to the field for a picnic or pick up and eat at home.

Robert Robbins

Fantastic breakfast! Big chocolate chip pancakes, great corn beef hash and gluten free options that included a homemade hollandaise. Going to be favorite whenever I come to Salem!

So the food is always good, but the last two times coming here to eat we have had one particular waitress that i strongly dislike. She is one of the older waitresses who has short bangs and a bob like hair cut. And let me say before i continue literally EVERYONE else who works there is always kind, respectful, and at least acts like they are in a good mood to provide good service. I have NEVER had a SINGLE problem with another worker other than this particular waitress. First she is never pleasant, she has acted as if us being there is a burden. She gets many things wrong or doesn't bring certain items we ask for and even when asked again its still wrong. Then I notice on your website you are happy to give vegetarian and gluten free options for more healthy eating, well you need to let this particular waitress know that, cause when I asked if a certain food was vegetarian, she lied to me. She stood there and guessed if it was vegetarian or not then my friend who I was with saw her roll her eyes the minute her back was turned from me. She has been very cold, rude and honestly if I go there and have this particular waitress I am either going to leave or ask for a different waitress. Cause I'm not gonna ask a question nicely and for dietary reasons only to have someone on purpose lie, not double check, and then roll their eyes at me. I always treat people who serve others with respect cause I know how hard they work, but ill be damned if I'm gonna have someone roll their eyes at me for asking a question respectfully and for a good reason.

Jill Swift

Great place for gluten free brunch options.

Malcolm Moses

A very generous 12" gluten free pizza (ham and pineapple) for totally reasonable price of $23.75. Loved it. Thank you.

Rikki Provda

I went for the first time two weeks ago.. and I’ve been back four times. Best gluten free pizza I’ve had in a very long time and it’s wildly inexpensive. I’m from NY so I have high standards. The owners are so nice too! I’m so glad they’re in town.

Matt Allen

What an incredible find at the heart of Salem. If you like Mediterranean food you must eat here. Humous (hummus) grape leaves, falafel and so much more. Lamb, chicken, beef so many choices. A must stop if you are vegetarian or vegan as they have sooooo many delicious options. Lots of gluten free as well. Great full bar. Jamal was a great server (shout out!). So friendly and helpful.

Christina Mantas

A Wonderful Spot to escape the Salem crowds: Cozy and Delicious! Excellent service, even if you're dining alone. I went very simple, with Bella Verona's Homemade Minestrone Soup, Unbreaded Calamari, and a Creamy Pasta, "Penne Ai Foraggi Misti", all gluten-free. A warm and comforting meal, in a warm and inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend. ❤️

Shaylyn Carey

We just had an incredible dinner at Settler- the service was impeccable, with fresh plates and silverware after each course which were all timed perfectly. They change their menu frequently based on what’s fresh at the moment and that definitely cokes through in the food. We started with a salad and whipped ricotta, then had a pasta course with handmade gluten free pasta - the best I’ve ever had! I had the tuna with chickpeas, and my partner had the chicken which was incredibly juicy and flavorful. You can tell everyone working here is incredibly passionate about what they do - even though we were the last seating, our dinner did not feel rushed at all and we felt so welcomed. The ambiance is quaint, simple, and tasteful as well. We will definitely be back!

Amylane Duncan Reeve

Lovely restaurant with elements of fun. The food is seriously good. They were very good about my food allergies. I was able to order gluten free and soy free from many choices. The lemonade is terrific, as were three choices of beer. Very clean, modern place. We had table service. There is also the option of hibachi.

Kosta Radosavljevic

Thank you so much for honoring your word! We had ordered a steak and cheese egg roll and got a steak and cheese sub instead. We couldn't eat the steak and cheese sub cuz my roommate could not take that much gluten in so we told them and called them and they said they would issue a credit. We called two days later and the lady immediately knew who we were and it should be a credit for any free sub and it was absolutely wonderful! Thank you for taking care of us on customer service along with the free soda! We have a wonderful experience and will continue to keep ordering again

Ilia Papas

Came with small kids and everyone was happy, which almost never happens. Back alley bacon ramen with spicy broth was fantastic, regular pizzas were excellent as was the gluten free pizza. Top-notch service to boot. You almost never see a place with multiple cuisines get it right—this is the exception. Add it to your list.
