Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots Across Abilene

Tim Clawson

I wouldn't recommend this establishment to anyone. I sat down with my family, and as we began looking over the menu, we saw that sugar-free syrup was an extra charge. I asked the waitress about this, and she responds, saying the owner charges for anything and everything "extra." I asked to speak with the manager prior to my family ordering. Upon asking the manager about this, I stated that it didn't matter how small or large the increase in price was this was unreasonable. I informed him that my son is a type 1 diabetic and this seems to me to be almost a punishment for a disease that literally no-one has control over. He responded and said that he understood he had celiacs disease and he had to pay more for his gluten free food. His words at the end of this statement was " it just is what it is." He stated it costed more to make the sugar free. I can understand that to an extent but that still brings me back to type 1's have absolutely no control with their disease happening to them. And they literally have to pay a cost every single second of every single day! Though both of these diseases are terrible and I hate for anyone to have to deal with either, their is no comparison! This is absolutely abysmal performance on the part of the owner and manager. Do better! We left and paid 13$ for three waters a coffee and a tea.

Consistently excellent food served with fast and friendly service! My go-to choice is the Harvest Salad paired with either Peach or Raspberry Tea. However, all of their sandwiches are delicious, and their zucchini bread (also offered as Gluten Free) is a must-try!

Very unhappy Masked female who loves Red Robin. So much dissatisfaction. Will be rethinking coming and spending like I normally at this establishment. Not only am I sick with flu but I finally had an appetite. Couldn’t figure out to get gluten free bun on the online order so I called it in. Told me food would be ready at 6:15, I arrived at 6:30. Hostess told me food wasn’t ready yet, if it wasn’t for my snarky comment of really?? Said it would be ready at 6:15, would she have not looked into it further I would have been still sitting there. No one could locate my order. Asked for manager. Thankfully I thought to look in my bank account to show proof of purchase. I just wanted a refund and go back home. According to manager she didn’t know how to refund it if ordered via phone. They got the food ready, my only option since I couldn’t leave with a refund. Walked away with papers on how to online order and number to Red Robin.

burger was good. I'm glad they have gluten free bun available. I do wish the single patty was a tiny bit more substantial. The bun overwhelmed the patty. Definitely get the double patty or don't bother. Sweet potato fries are awesome and they give you tons!!

So good! Very delicious, Fresh hot food. We loved that the fries were hand cut gluten free fries for my child with celiacs disease.

Daniel Diaz

The staff is amazing and the food is great! Best salas bar in town hands down! Love the Christian music on the radio while we eat. Game room and big party rooms! Can’t say enough good things about the place! We love it! Oh and soft serve ice cream that is yum! And gluten free options

I love this place. However, I can never stay in the store for very long as the perfume section fills the entire store with sickeningly strong synthetic perfumey smells that aggrevate my allergies. I am always feeling sick after. Otherwise, the store is amazing, has a huge selection, and has great prices! They have so many gluten-free products that my daughter is thankful for as she has a severe gluten allergy.

Jenna McKnight

My favorite place in Abilene! Great selection of Gluten Free items. Their scones and togas are my favorites.

Robin Belyeu

This is such a beautiful place and all of their food doesn't taste like it's gluten free but is gluten free!!! I really recommend going here if you want a beautiful atmosphere and amazing service!! They are so sweet and their food is so good!! You won't even be able to tell that it's gluten free!!!

Dennis Hatley

Food was good, they have gluten free and keto options which is very cool! Staff was friendly and very upbeat.

Josselyn Gober

Great burger. Udis gluten-free buns available. Fries are shareable for 2.

I LOVE JASON'S DELI!!! Another place I have found that serves gluten-free food. THANK U GOD! And thank u Jason's Deli 😊🙏🏾❤

Tandalyn

We had an amazing experience here and an excellent server! My nephew is gluten free and they took extra care to make sure we did not cross contaminate his food, changed gloves etc. We were quite impressed with the care and service we received here. Thank you!

The Jordan Soto

Such a cute spot, with a porch (dog friendly). Open layout but with little nooks for working and great atmosphere and music. Friendly staff and aesthetically pleasing. They also have gluten free bread!!! Yay!

Regan Robertson

Delicious food and I love the gluten sensitive options!

Megan Pacanins

Went here yesterday and ordered turkey and ham sandwich on gluten free bread. Had only one pile of clumpy turkey so I took it back after much push back they made another one. Now I'm miserable sick. Not sure if they did something to my food or if its food poisoning. Going to pcp to get tested and checked out. Won't eat here again too risky with my weak immune system to get sick again. I was not rude at all when I brought it up, honestly I hate asking for remakes because I always worry if they will be malicious or do something to my food. But when you pay extra to add another meat and they don't put much on it then act like it looks OK to them? Half my sandwich was bread and lettuce only.

Cassie Crowe

I have Celiac disease and require a specific diet. They offer gluten free products and their food tastes SO GOOD! I recently went to order the meatball sandwich and forgot to order without bread. I ordered the last meatballs and they quickly made more even though I made the mistake. They went above and beyond! So thankful for these ladies!

Kallan Paige

So delicious I stopped here twice in 3 days. The atmosphere is very groovy, quite like a nightclub in the bar/lounge, and yet very relaxing as well. Highly recommend their Navajo (puffy) tacos. Not only are they delicious, crunchy, and filling, but they are also celiac friendly. The margarita is on point, more fresh and enjoyable than many premade counterparts. 10 outta 10, do recommend.

ANGEL PACANINS

I think that this is a highly underrated restaurant in Abilene. When you order, you get the feeling of ordering at a fast food joint. The fact that the food comes out super fast is another plus. The drinks are also self served, but honestly, the food is quite good, and they have a gluten-free option for my wife (which is hard for any type of restaurant. Imagine being an Italian food restaurant). Overall, it was a great choice. we went once after being in the area over 17 years and not ever stopping, and now it is twice a month for us. It is also surprisingly affordable. Their bread sticks also give Olive Garden a run for its money, possibly even better, and if you dine in, they are also unlimited.

Trichelle Loewen

We love Life of Pie!!! Everything we've gotten here has been incredible & I'm thankful they offer a variety of gluten-free options. The banana pudding pie is THE BEST! I personally love their taco salad & salsa, but their pizza, quiche, & pot pie's are equally amazing. Not only is their food delicious, but the service is stellar & kind! Customer's for life here!!

Deborah Kay Pancake

I have to have gluten free, their sizzling fried rice soup, excellent w extra veggies, us chop Suey with white sauce, excellent options, had great service tonight, 6/16/2023

Tammy Everette

Their gluten bun is the best I have ever tasted in gluten bread.

Deborah Kay Pancake

Have gluten free options a win win. Great food, bit pricy, but have affordable very good options.

Jason Elvecrog

This place is amazing, I attended my girlfriend's work Christmas party here and she has gluten issues, this restaurant went above and beyond and provided gluten free options specifically for her to enjoy her work party. Staff was amazing, food was amazing, and drinks were amazing, if you get the point this place is amazing. If you haven't checked it out you are missing out. Thank you for making this such a great experience.

Beverly Albrecht

Great gourmet burgers with sweet potato fries or regular fries. Fun and retro decor and ambience with friendly service. I love that they offer gluten free buns and don’t cook with soybean oil so my daughter can eat here since she has a gluten allergy and soy & soybean allergy. They have a large patio that works especially good if you have a dog like we do. They also have Blue Bell Ice Cream. Would recommend!

Teresa Jackson

The food is fabulous. The staff is wonderful! The shrimp and grits to die for! And the Glutenberg IPA!

ANGEL PACANINS

We love the gluten free options..... And their hot wings are gluten free (bone in)

Jaime Goldfuss

It was good. They did not have any gluten free bread/rolls. Food was very tasty.

Christine E. Sexton, BBA, MSS

I am so happy that Domino's added a gluten-free crust! I have a ton of allergies and have not had a pizza in years, but with this new crust, I can enjoy a pie with my husband whenever the mood strikes me. Thanks again!

Theresa Talley

Great selection of teas, supplements, and gluten-free items.

David Millar

Small place with limited seating, but friendly staff that’s quick to clean tables and move in new diners while handling takeout quickly as well. The Pad See Ew with tofu and spice level 2 was delicious and beverages were served in nice big cups. My dining companions were vegetarian and one had a gluten allergy, but there were still multiple menu options that they could have and they enjoyed their curry and Pad Thai as well. This place is definitely a hidden gem worth the visit if you’re passing through the area.

Chuck Banz

Great place for food. Awesome gluten free sandwich.

katherine

We stopped here the other night on a road trip and the food was top notch. I had a few basic rolls, and my coworker had Shrimp tempura she said was among the best she’s ever had. I’d absolutely recommend and visit again! They also have a gluten free menu (ask when being seated) and offer gluten free soy sauce!

Cathy Beam

Would recommend Aperitivo for all your lunch / Charcuterie needs! We had a wonderful experience. Food was delicious and so fresh. Owners were helpful and kind. It was obvious they wanted to make our visit enjoyable. Homemade pimento cheese sandwich was delicious. And homemade chicken salad. They have great gluten free bread / cracker options

Anne Kessler

I am very allergic to gluten down to the parts per million. I do not have Celiac (negative biopsy), but I react similarly to those with very severe cases of Celiac. Cordell's balsamic vinegar is the only balsamic vinegar I do not react to, and it tastes fantastic. Most balsamic vinegars in a regular grocery store have gluten in them, and I react to many organic so called gluten free balsamic vinegars that have "grape must." There are no questionable additives in Cordell's vinegars, and they are safe for those of us who always have to eat in but still want to make delicious food at home. Thank you Cordell's for giving myself and the Celiacs in town a safe gluten-free product!

Trevor LaFountaine

Only baker in Abilene that is an actual bakery and will bake what you ask of them. Spoke to Jennifer on the phone asking about gluten free bread and she was incredibly professional and determined to find a solution for me. Thanks Jennifer! She gave me the direct cell phone number for the baker. I spoke to Jon on the phone and he was extremely helpful with finding the exact ingredients I am looking for. I specifically asked him if could make a gluten free bread with a flour that does not have xanthan gum. He is going to do the research, and create a recipe to meet my needs since 99% of gluten free flour has xanthan gum included in the ingredients. This is a place that obviously cares about their customers. All other bakery's I called in Abilene were not willing to even consider baking gluten free bread or didn't bake bread at all. I'm not sure why they call themselves a bakery then. Thank you Milk and Honey, you stand out among others during a time where the customer doesn't feel important to the businesses that we spend our hard earned money on. You have my business, and I will be recommending you anytime anyone at Dyess AFB is looking for a baker. For gluten free people looking for an edible bread as well: I will update this review once I receive the bread and let you know how good it is. With the way it's going so far, I'm sure it is going to be delicious.

Holly Lyn Walrath

Very cute and AESTHETIC ha. I only knock off a star because there weren’t a lot of milk options if you can’t have dairy. But it’s a delight to visit, lots of gluten free options.

ANGEL PACANINS

This place is awesome. The food is on par with my favorite noodle bars in the DFW area. And they know what gluten is.... That is always a plus.

Annette Carrasco

Our Sunday tradition after lunch. It is always very clean and they have a great variety of gluten free flavors.

Deborah Kay Pancake

Very good, they helped me figure out what I could have with gluten and lactose needs. Yay. Not been there in years.

Lance Vines, Realtor - Homefinders Realty

I love the Classic Blu Burger (No bun) and the Steak Fajita Salad. Great for gluten-free people like me. Just don't get the fries to keep it GF. Great music. And the staff is awesome!

Ash Tolliver

They have a great gluten free menu!

Beverly Albrecht

Great place for a quick lunch or to just hangout and visit over lunch or dinner. They offer sandwiches, big fresh gourmet salads and soups. They have a big selection of salad dressings for salads. They also offer gluten free sandwiches.we had the gluten-free Rueben sandwich with fresh fruit which was good. The Savannah chopped salad was fresh and delicious. Also we had the southwest avocado salad which was good.

Ernie Heyek your local realtor

Great food, great atmosphere and great prices! I've been gluten free for a few years now and the gluten free pizza option here was the largest GF pizza I've had. All other places have small pizzas.

Dan Leamy

Best hamburger in Abilene for that old time backyard cookout flavor. Generous portions! Courteous staff! Only thing I would like to see is a gluten bun added to their menu like some of their other out of town locations! Highly recommend! Will be back!

Merrilee Bradfield

Crabfest just started, and it is delicious. My brother found a new favorite in the lobster pizza! They even had gluten free options for my mom.

Tatum Ciavarella

Super cute space and has gluten sensitivity options. I wish I could remember the waitress’s name but she went above and beyond to make sure my sandwich was allergen free and safe for consumption. Their coffee is super yummy and I personally loved all of the plants and cute decor!

Carl Hoemke

Love this place. Sweet family and delicious pupusas! Naturally gluten free.

Ash Tolliver

I have celiac disease and eating out can be terrifying, but Bailey was SO reassuring and made me feel confident in my choices. She was very knowledgeable and returned when she learned I couldn't have the blackened fish tacos, but the cook was going to grill them plain instead. My dad and I ordered for the fish tacos with squash side, and Dad had their key lime pie. The merengue is whipped fresh, and the whole meal smelled heavenly. I highly recommend this place!
