Alberto Rodrigo

Gluten-free restaurant, I usually eat gluten and I loved it.

Mia Uu

Such a wonderful place! An oasis in tourist hell. Everything is delicious, gluten-free, dairy-free, and even vegan. The people are super friendly and the place, especially with the garden in the back, is absolutely beautiful! Thank you!!

My daughter was in Heaven. She got the ham and cheese croissant, the traditional custard pastry, the chocolate croissant, and a small sugar croissant and it was all delicious!! I wished we would have known about this place on the first day of getting here. I’m glad we tried it out. The prices are great as well.

Daniel Anthony

Exceptional food and very friendly staff. Highly recommend eating here!

Andreia Pusich Amaral

Delicious gluten free options. Just make sure to the waiter about being gluten free

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back " We have pizza gluten free for example we can use vegan cheese if you can have mozzarella … then also hamburger gluten free pasta … so come and please tell at the waiter all the allergies you have and we will take care of you 😉"

Catarina Pires

Brunch, lunch, snacks

Kate Nunes

Great little spot, very helpful waiter. They assured us that there was a seperate prep area, oven and ingredients. My coeliac daughter said it was delicious 😁

Maria Miller

Nice staff and great atmosphere! However, the food felt very overpriced and the quality was less than what we expected. There are a lot of options for those who are gluten free and with dietary restrictions, though!

Laura

A great pizzeria, with super friendly service from the very first moment. David, the owner, is charming and makes you feel at home. If you have celiac disease or an egg allergy, this is an ideal place: they have many gluten-free and egg-free options that are safe and delicious.

Nassar Dodo

Awful all round. Service slow. Food beyond average. Price too high.

Victor Manuel Freire Parada

Unfortunately my family and I, we arrived at the closing time so was not possible for us to dinner there. Judging on how well the deserves and salads looks, I can say that it’s a really good place for Celiac people. Come on, they have their own Celiac version of a “Francesinha”!!! What’s motivates me to drop my review here was the absolute empathy of the owner who gets us to a neighbours restaurant that also sell gluten free food, we need more people in the world like him. My eternal gratitude to him. Thanks you!

Andreia Pusich Amaral

Certified 100% gluten free and delicious

Alba Figuerola

We arrived, unknowingly, half an hour before closing, and they still treated us fantastically. The food is spectacular, delicious, and the service is fantastic. A very cozy place where everything is gluten-free and lactose-free. The woman who served us knew almost no Spanish or English, but she did her best to give us 10 service. I wish I could give more stars. A wonderful place, with great food.

Jenny Griesser

Great service, efficient, fast, and friendly! Excellent and original smoothie! Incredible pancakes *_* Gluten-free, vegan, and lactose-free options

Krux Guridi

Fantastic place with beautifully presented dishes and excellent service. As a celiac, I had a menu with everything I could order...a 10!! Totally recommend!!

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back "Hello, Paulina! We have several gluten-free and vegan options on the menu. From tapioca, salads, smoothie bowls, shakshuka, pancakes, etc. We'd also like to inform you that all toasts can be served on gluten-free bread or with a baked sweet potato base instead of traditional bread. You can see our menu at: https://www.zenithcaffe.pt/EmentaZenithPT.pdf // https://www.zenithcaffe.es/MENU_ZENITH_ES_ENG.pdf   However, given that all the products are made in the same kitchen and that we have very limited space, we can't guarantee 100% that there won't be any cross-contamination, even though we take every possible precaution. To date we have never had any reported incidents    If you come to visit us, we suggest that you inform the manager immediately when you order, so that we can take extra care.  We hope to see you soon, Zenith team "

My boyfriends is allergic to gluten and the amount of gluten free food they had is amazing. Our server was very nice, it was a nice peaceful atmosphere

jakob zust

Great for celiacs, very friendly service.

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back " Hi Paulina, 1. Potatoes are naturally free from Gluten, we don’t have any additives to the potatoes. 2. Our oil is certified free from GMO, gluten, soy and is vegan. 3. Our sauces are Lactose & Gluten free. The sauces do contain egg.

Exceptional! Was a very nice surprise today :) we were looking for a cozy coffee place to escape the rain and found this cute bistro ran by a lovely couple on Google maps. We ended up eating and trying some snacks and were blown away to find that they were not only vegan, but gluten free, too! The coffee was tasty and the vibe was right. We will for sure come back. Thanks for the nice afternoon :)

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back "Greetings from Incomum,   We have several options for your food allergies   Thank you for your preference.   Kind Regards"

Jasmin

We had a gluten-free and a regular pizza. Both were delicious; the dough is rolled out very thinly, and the crust was also delicious. The price is perfectly reasonable; we paid €32 for two pizzas and two drinks. We'd be happy to come back :)

Iris Lys

Excellent food, friendly servers who communicate easily in several languages, and a short wait that was quickly forgotten. Be careful, there are no gluten-free options.

Dominique G.

Sensational food, many gluten-free alternatives, great service

E C

Ingredients were good quality and price was reasonable, but ordering was a nightmare and despite getting a market plate and an extra side, I left still hungry. I asked whether the chicken dish I ordered was gluten free and was told yes, but it arrived covered in breadcrumbs. Additionally, I was brought the wrong order twice before they got it right, including the second time where they added bread despite me clearly asking for the salad because it was gluten free. Others with allergens here should keep in mind that although some other allergens are labeled clearly, gluten is not.

Mia Nielsen

It has all the gluten-free options, and everything is delicious. The custard tarts are highly recommended.

Andi Macht

Great vegetarian and vegan restaurant with plenty of gluten-free options. Cozy decor, delicious food, and super friendly staff! It's a bit more expensive than many Azorean restaurants, but sooo delicious! You should reserve a table in advance, as it's quite small.

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back " Hello Paulina, Unfortunately we have bread in our kitchen so cross contamination can happen… Sorry for that. Thank you"

Mia Uu

It's incredibly delicious, everything's vegan, there are plenty of gluten-free options, the service is friendly, and everything looks beautiful! What can I say, it was amazing! Absolutely recommended!

Rachael Nevsimal

What a wonderful gem to find in Porto! Everything was delicious from start to finish - mocktails, vegan nachos and their cheesecake. Lots of gluten free options on the menu as well. Trendy and modern decor. Service is on the slower end, but that is common around all restaurants in Porto. Would definitely return here if I am back in Portugal

Saioa

I booked on this site because I had read it recommended on Google. The truth is that the restaurant is very cool and they have a lot of varieties of French dishes: gluten-free, vegetarian... everything looked very good. We order the normal and the pure. The truth is that we expected something more, it wasn't bad but I wouldn't say it's the best franceshina I've ever eaten in my life. The treatment was very good and the atmosphere was very cool.

Nathan van der Hooft

We have been going on holiday to the Algarve with our family for a few years now and we never miss Bailote. We have tried quite a few things on the menu – meat, fish, tapas, pasta and pizza – and we are always very satisfied. I eat gluten-free myself, and this is one of the few places in the area where I have so much choice. Pizzas, bread, burgers, salads: it is not only on the menu, it is also incredibly good! The warm atmosphere and the great service make it complete. Definitely recommended!

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them to find out in advance if they could accommodate my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back " Dear Paulina,  Thank you for reaching out.  We would very much like to have you, and there are a few options on our menu that might be suitable, but we are afraid that our production environment may not be 100% safe for your requirements, as we have only one area where everything is prepared. Thus, we cannot guarantee the absence of cross contamination. We don't have a certified gluten-free kitchen, and even with the attention and rigor we put in our operation, we fear that the risk may be unacceptable for you."

Lena H

Super delicious food and a great selection of healthy dishes. There is something for all needs, whether vegan, vegetarian or with meat/fish or, as I need it, gluten-free. We were there for breakfast and took something with us for dinner, everything worked great. The infused water is also very tasty and there is a large selection and you can refill your glasses for free. The atmosphere there is also great, everything is very lovingly decorated, you feel very comfortable there.

Jaroslaw Majchrzycki

Nice location of the restaurant next to the market in Olhão, nice staff (most of them do not speak English, but the menu is available in several languages ​​and online). The heavy traffic of cars on the street was a bit disturbing when choosing a place in the garden outside. Food good, gluten free pizza correct. Nice time at lunch. A big plus for a conscious gluten-free option.

Andrea Mérida Müller

NOT SUITABLE FOR CELIACS. They say they are "gluten free" but there is cross contamination. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR PEOPLE WITH CELIAC.

Suzanne Loureiro

Amazing service at 4pm between two services because it took me forever to find a Celiac safe place. It was perfect!

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back "Hi Paulina,  We do have a gluten free menu.  When you visit us, please inform the server of all your allergies, our staff will certainly provide you a meal free of allergens.  Check attached our full menu allergens for your consideration prior to your visit.  Thanks"

Eva Polliart

Discovered this brunch in the old town of Aljezur. A nice hippie atmosphere, but not very cozy if you want to feel comfortable while eating 😅 Very good acai bowl granola, as well as the gluten-free banana bread. Lots of vegan and gluten-free options, which are pretty good!

Graeme Wheatley

Great cafe with top-notch coffee and food. The pancakes are amazing for breakfast, just make sure that you are hungry. Also they have a brilliant selection of gluten free and vegan cakes.

Paulina Kasongo

I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back " Hi! Cross contamination may occur, so we cannot guarantee it’s safe"

Lucy Kirkland

Superb meal. Tuna was amazing. Gluten free bread and desserts available. Highly recommend. They were busy so would suggest booking.

Teresa Tong

Decent offering of gluten & sugar free desserts, with the option of being lactose free and vegan. The outlet mainly create larger cakes and offer frozen food for sale🎂 Dining in is possible, with very limited seating available only outdoor. Indoor seating is somewhat used as an office and seminar room for cake and pastry workshop. Taste for both Lasagna and apple tart are decent in taste. Coffee ☕️ (decaf) was average. Wifi is available. Service is attentive. Portuguese command is highly advantageous for a smooth experience, as the staffs speaks close to zero English.

Emily Palmer

First of all, the coffee is exceptional, this is an absolute must-visit (every morning) for a great cuppa. Next up is the vegan treats! My son is allergic to eggs and dairy and has had a really tough time finding anything he can have, I was amazed to find the bakery section was all either vegan or gluten free. Cue very excited 3 year old to be included! The staff have been extremely welcoming, even when I've been turning up at opening on the dot to have a coffee before work! (Sorry!) There is a genuinely lovely collection of staff so very kind and inclusive. Ohh AND - the list goes on, I know - you can also work from here. It's not overly crowded, a real-life hidden gem with great coffee, great staff and a quiet place to work.

Mélodie Illès

A very pretty restaurant, we had a terrace under a pergola with vines growing on it. It's truly charming, modern, and beautifully decorated. We ate the two gluten-free vegan starters (mushrooms & lentil puree and Tom Yum soup), as well as the lomo saltado, the chocolate mousse, and the panna cotta. Everything was absolutely delicious, perfectly seasoned, and rich in flavor. The service is discreet, friendly, and elegant. A must-try!

Rachelle Dunn

Amazing gluten free brunch. Fresh ingredients and a peaceful space to enjoy in. Ordered the scrambled eggs, came with a gluten free cracker instead of sourdough which was turnout out to be a nice substitute and the whole meal was very filling.

Lorcan Costigan

Probably the smallest portion sizes I've seen for Chinese food. Great for gluten free options. Kids loved it and we were back again.

Kamel Bekhaled

Very good value for money, vegan ice cream and gluten-free cone. Thanks again.

Jeff Chochinov

Regina’s personality is felt in every dish and drink. There’s a very good assortment of gluten free options. As a celiac, I was very happy to see gf super bock beer on the menu which paired perfectly with a grilled cheese after a day at the beach. Great food, great prices and friendly, attentive service.
