Top 50 Gluten-Free Places Across Madison

I’d heard about this place and that everything was delicious, and that they had sweet potato donuts. OMG were they ever delicious! So I got a couple of sweet potato donuts for our family to share, a ham and Gruyère cheese sandwich for my son and twice baked almond croissant for my husband and son to share. Everything was so delicious…I’m typically gluten free, but had to try the sweet potato donuts because I love anything sweet potato. I took half of one and it was so good that I grabbed the other half as well and had it all to myself! Let me just say, we’ll be back very soon!

Delicious. The cinnamon roll was amazing. While a bit pricey for a standard bakery, the $25+ tip for 3 baked items and a regular coffee felt average priced for a gluten-free bakery. The women behind the counter were friendly; they waved and giggled with my daughter, and we enjoyed a brief chat. The decor is charming and tastefully creative. I'll definitely be back soon!

everything on the menu looks so good so it's hard to pick what to eat, all the food was delicious and it's very gluten friendly. we tried the chicken tikka sandwich which was a beautiful fusion and the blackberry salmon which wasn't too sweet and cooked perfectly

Sarah Stoehr Laing

I absolutely love Ice Cream Social! Love the creative and delicious flavors, the cozy space, and the community impact through their donations. As someone with Celiac, it is really amazing to be able to go somewhere knowing that everything is gluten free (and tastes good!). I make it a priority to go to ICS whenever I’m in Madison!

Tammy Stearns

Always delicious beer, but my son recently brought me the Rustic Badger Farmhouse Ale for my birthday and I think it’s my new favorite! Love that it is a little lighter at 4.2%. Thanks for showing that quality beer can be gluten free!

Eddy Nelson

Celiac heaven. Dedicated fryers, knowledgeable staff. Almost all dishes can be made GF. Amazing Venezuelan food!

Amazing customer service, people were extremely nice and friendly. Food was good and had excellent choices for vegan and gluten free, allergy friendly menu items. Not super expensive either, which is a huge plus so I can come here more regularly. Only leaving 4 stars because of the water having salt/minerals* and they had to remake my friend’s vegan tacos. Also would add that my mocktail was mostly ice… They were really good about providing allergen free laminated menus with notes. *Suggestion to restaurant, I know other people have commented about the water. It probably would have been a 5 stars if not for water quality. It just was a gritty tap like taste. (FYI water snobs in Madison, RED has the best free water served in restaurants)

Allyson Carlson

This our go to place when we visit madison. Being celiac I finally don't have to worry about what I eat. Bonus gf tempura

Josie Hansen

The best gluten free pasta! Also love the aperol spritz!

dbcs

Great gluten free ham and cheese croissant

Jaclyn Wegener

I am gluten free and this is one of the true gems of Madison. If you’ve forgotten what chicken tenders taste like, this place has the world’s best gluten free chicken tenders. Make sure to also save room for the salted caramel cheesecake ! It looks like a sports bar but they have some of the best food I’ve had

Brianna Doyle

Had gluten free pancakes that tasted so yummy. You can get the different flavor pancakes gluten free. Has a wait on Sunday mornings. Really friendly staff.

Hannah S

You will not find a better french fry in the greater madison area Everything I've ever had has been stellar Great gluten free options

Brad Seebeck

Stopped here for dinner with the family after flying into Madison. Menu was great, service was friendly, and the food was delicious! They didn't mind our 3 young children being a little squirmy after sitting on a plane all afternoon. Had great Gluten Free and Vegan options on the menu. What a great place! Highly recommend!

Teri Kremer

Great food, very good about allergies and gluten free! Love this place!

Phil Salant

Dream Poke with all the fixings. Price very good value and good for any occasion. Fresh, fast, great people. Gluten-Free too!!

Logan

Both times I've been there, they've had great food, great service, and a fun atmosphere. Gluten-free buns are always available, and they have a designated fryer to avoid cross contamination.

Luis Gavaldon

First time here, and I was very satisfied with the El Papí sampler and the Lomo Saltado a Caballo (center)paired excellently with a glass of Malbec. My fellow lunch party also enjoyed their meals. They had the Parrilla Callejera (left) and La Taguara Burger (right). They have plenty of gluten-free options as well. Will return again.

Jennifer King

I didn't capture pics of the food. I ate here two days in a row. First day I had the turkey n bacon sandwich on gluten free bread with cabbage slaw side. Today I has the pumpkin cinnamon roll gluten free pancakes 🥞!! Let me tell you! Best gluten free pancakes I have ever had. Moist, hot, delicious!!! Highly recommend.

Ana Salcido

This place is awesome! Everyone needs to visit Paleo Mama whether you are gluten-free or not. The breakfast sandwiches are delicious. So many yummy desserts options.

Katherine Gardner

I was surprised by the amount of gluten free options, the appetizer bread and dessert blondies were amazing!! Sam G. was a great server/host!

Andrew VanDerKolk

amazing food! lovely atmosphere - upbeat and wowing decor. an amazing array of beers wines and bloody mary’s as well. if you come, start with the traditional frites (fries) and blackened garlic ranch aioli sauce - fantastic! plus for anyone that is gluten free or celiac they have a dedicated gluten free menu - woo hoo!

melissawilcox1

The gluten-free breakfast burritos basically got me through COVID. Delicious potatoes, eggs, cheese, bacon. They are best enjoyed on the shores of Lake Mendota with the accompanying salsa.

W Hill

Not safe for celiac! Cc is extremely high!

Jolene Dombrowski

Beautiful morning on the patio!! I love that there are gluten free pancakes! Delicious 😋 Venera was wonderful!

Jenna W

Tons of gluten "sensitive" options! Our server was very knowledgeable and extremely accommodating Would most likely not be safe for celiac but for folks gf for other reasons, its great. The cheesecake was divine

Adrianna Lopez

Alejandro was a great cashier! Very knowledgeable about my gluten allergy. He is very helpful, kind, and funny! Great tasting food, atmosphere was great, and service was lovely! Samples of peach cobbler were given, and he even asked if this was our first time here, and he welcomed us in.

Emma kleidon (tangeyorange)

I was taken aback when I found out they not only offer gluten free crust, but DAIRY free cheese as well! I’ve had frozen Daiya pizzas before that are…alright? But this was easily the best pizza I’ve had since going down the sad pit of a gluten/dairy free life.

Food was delicious. 9/10. My personal favorite dishes included green curry and praham long song. Everyone we talked to recommended the red noodles, so definitely try those as well! I got the foco roasted coconut juice as a drink which was nice but wouldn’t re-order. To be truthful, I only got it because it had boba. The sticky mango rice as dessert was DELICIOUSSSS and a fun cultural food to try. The cream cheese wontons were exquisite. Basic, but delicious. Almost everything here can be made vegetarian and gluten free which is great if someone has dietary restrictions. Overall would definitely recommend this place, especially with parents in town as it is a little pricey for the college student budget. The service was good except they do this thing where you have a table but must go to the front and order every time and then they bring your food out to you. I was not the biggest fan as someone constantly had to get up to go order food, a drink, etc. and it broke conversation. May just be a personal preference though. My final rating is an 8/10 for the restaurant.

Oli

Good food and friendly staff. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten sensitive opinions. Tacos and stuffed burrito are great, not the enchiladas.

Alex Dior

Gluten friendly pancakes were a 10/10. I tried the blueberry sauce and maple syrup on them (not together). Both were equally delicious. Ordered hash browns and eggs. Hash browns were enough for the family.

Jihmmy Sanchez

Was recommended this place because of the gluten free options. Was not disappointed. The food is good the service is great and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. While the food is a little pricey the lunch special is a great values. The price of the food is matched by the quality of the food and service which I think presents amazing value for customers. Will be coming back.

Aubree Sue Yanchik

The Globe is the one restaurant I have cravings for consistently. Their tic tac curry is my absolutely favorite! There are gluten free options galore. The staff is always very kind. Don’t sleep on this one if you’re downtown and looking for some flavorful fusion food.

Cassidy Meyer

Nice place. Got our coffee and food pretty fast! They have great gluten free options too.

Carolyn Ruck

High end cuisine and service. They “get” gluten free.

I rarely shop here but will start shopping here more after yesterday! I some how dropped my cell phone out of my purse. The manager was so helpful and called an associate to help me look. They even let me use their phone to call my husband to let him know I lost my phone. The associate tried calling my phone to see if we could hear it. They finally took my husband's number and my name to see if someone might find it later. On the way back to my car, I noticed the sun shining off something in the snowbank. It was my phone! I was in a full blown panic attack when this happened. It was my phone! The staff at this location makes it worth going. I felt heard and cared for. They also have such good products which is why I was there in the first place. I needed to get some gluten free items. Thank you so much for making my day manageable and all the help the manager and associates gave me not only with trying to find my phone but showing me where the gluten free crackers were and telling me all about the different ones Trader Joe's carries!

Sue Ike

First time there and staff Jesus was very awesome, welcoming with explaining how the ordering routine worked. Was with friend and we tried both of the gluten-free crust pizzas and both were delicious. Will be back!

kean obrien

I love this place. They have such good food and service. I am now gluten free and just tried their gf pizza and it’s so good. They have great vegan sausage also! Of course they have all the cheese and regular crust also

michael parks

Great place! 3rd generation restaurant owner, and it shows The little things are done right, the staff has a great attitude that creates a great atmosphere. Head and shoulders above any sports bar on this side of the Capitol Lots of seating (it is full and I mean full full during Breese Stevens events, or playoff games) Clean quality bathrooms Fish fry is solid (with many fish options), the soups are a hidden gem, I personally love the sandwiches and the pork wings 🪽 They have celiac safe options and take that responsibility very seriously Great bar staff too, so don't be afraid to belly up next to some great neighborhood regulars

Katherine Fetter

Very excited to see such a vast selection of gluten free foods with reasonable prices!

Ryan Lindley

My wife and I spent our 5 year anniversary meal here and the food and service were outstanding. They provided free champagne for our anniversary! I have a gluten sensitivity and they had a GF menu ready for me so I didn't have to ask. Their menu perfectly describes what is GF and what is gluten sensitive friendly. The service was superb and I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great meal.

Jeremiah Parranto

Food was great. Asked if the Pad Thai was gluten free and was assured it was and I had no issues. Summer rolls were gluten free as well.

Theo Leão Larrieux

Really good burgers with attentive staff. Rodrigo helped me with my gluten free allergy. Only downside it's a bit pricey for hamburgers, but still worth it, especially because there aren't many places with gluten free burgers. Staff also speaks Spanish so if you don't know English they can help you

Last week I had friends from out of town visiting Madison and I suggested we go to my favorite local pizza place : Grampa’s . Cannot believe I had not left a review as I have been coming here for years and they have been my go to take out pizza place . I have brought friends , family and business colleagues here . This is not your traditional pizza place . It is not thick crust , it’s not deep dish and it’s not Neapolitan . All of which I enjoy , but this place is unique . Not only is the crust thin but the toppings are specially crafted to create a memorable combination of flavors . From their menu I have had every pizza flavor . Each topping has been selected and all go so well together . Seasonally (depending on what’s in season) they offer a unique flavor , like summer corn or fall turnip . Tonight we chose Jambroni which I always add their chicken sausage and the Barbarini with extra watercress on top . Best part about the offering here is the availability of gluten free crust on the menu . When dining in the staff is exceptionally friendly and know all about the flavor combinations. When doing take out the service is fast and I have never experienced any delay . On occasion they have a shortbread rosemary butter cookie which is given at the end of the meal and it’s so tasty . Five stars to this institution of specialty non traditional pizza in Madison .

This Jason's Deli is always clean and well-maintained. Staff is prompt and always friendly. One of my kids has Celiac Disease and Jason's Deli is one of the few places in Madison that we can trust for him not to get gluten contamination because they take gluten free seriously. Drive-thru and online ordering is great, too! We love it!

Ali T

Love going to Otto's for food and music on the deck. They've got curtains and heaters if it gets cold but usually it's perfect on its own. They have a lot of gluten-free and vegetarian choices. Their wait staff are excellent, so friendly and fast that I always have to leave a nice tip. 😉

If you’re a health enthusiast or someone who loves to explore the world of organic and wholesome foods, Willy Street Co-op is your paradise. This store is a treasure trove of fresh produce, gluten-free goodies, and all things natural. The aisles are brimming with vibrant fruits and veggies, and the shelves are stocked with an impressive array of vegan, keto, and paleo options. The staff here are incredibly knowledgeable and always ready to help you find the perfect superfood or the latest health trend. Plus, the store’s commitment to sustainability is evident in their eco-friendly packaging and support for local farmers. However, if you’re like me and your idea of a balanced diet includes a fair share of pizza and cereals with enough sugar to shoot me like a rocket to the moon, Willy Street Co-op might not be your go-to spot. While I appreciate their dedication to health and wellness, my taste buds often crave something a bit more indulgent.

I'm vegan gluten free and was in town for the afternoon. Once I saw the menu here I knew I had to go. I had the Banzo platter with falafel & tahini, hummus & carrots, rice and salad. Plus I added kalamata olives, I mean, who wouldn't with a platter like that? I also had the homemade tea. The flavors were amazing! I'll definitely be back when I'm in town again! Thank you for a delicious meal!
