Gluten-Free Restaurants in Vancouver, BC

“We had dinner at Blue Water Cafe last night, and our server, Jared, was absolutely outstanding. He was incredibly attentive throughout the entire evening and possessed a deep knowledge of the menu, explaining the dishes with great detail. His drink recommendations were also spot on and enhanced our meal perfectly. What impressed us the most was his impeccable pacing; he managed to attend to every single table with absolute precision, without ever making anyone feel rushed. Jared balances warmth and professionalism beautifully, and he was truly a key figure in making our evening a memorable success. A huge thank you to Jared and the entire team for an unforgettable night. Jared went above and beyond any service experience I’ve had in the city. Highly recommended!“

“Very cozy restaurant, I highly recommend the Bigoli Nero - the best tasting seafood pasta I've ever had. The staff provided friendly and excellent service too.“

“Delightful dining experience!“

“The hostesses at the front are vibrant and charming. They offer a complimentary glass of champagne to sip while you’re waiting. If you don’t imbibe, they will accommodate your soft drink request. We were seated at a table on the patio which is very close to the street. So if you choose to sit on the patio, There will be city sounds which, apart from the occasional siren, quickly dissolves into the artful landscaping. Raven, our server, was friendly and cheerful, in addition to being appropriately attentive. We started with the mini steak French dips. Expertly seasoned and grilled, new york steak strips over a button of gruyere cheese atop a tiny slice of sourdough garlic bread with a side of au jus. These were quite more-ish. I recommend them. My husband enjoyed the Mediterranean salad and I liked my seared ahi tuna salad very much. The tuna is sliced thicker than carpaccio but thinner than sushi and gently seared. The plating was elegant and the salad finely chopped with bits of mango and shaved avocado on the top.. I tasted a bit of mint leaf and the light dressing was truly perfect. The staff pay attention to the guests and, when your server is busy, they make themselves available for your needs. It appears the staff members enjoy each other’s company as well as their jobs. I observed real teamwork throughout. We had the apple pie for dessert. On its own it is delicious with a caramel apple filling and it’s flaky , buttery and crunchy crus. It can easily be shared by three people and would have been enough. But do’gild the lily’ by adding the Canadian maple ice cream. We felt comfortable and satisfied. We were pleased with every bite and the Joey Burrard experience from start to finish. We will definitely go back and try some other offerings. Go and have fun. And talk to the very friendly staff who are so willing to engage.“

“Really good waffles and really good lattes“

“Good pizza 🍕 great experience 😊“

“We celebrated our 10th anniversary on January 25 at Coast Restaurant during the Dine Out Festival 2026, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. As expected from the Glowbal Restaurant Group, the service was absolutely top-notch. Our waitress made the evening even more special—she happened to be a fellow Swiftie! We ended up having such a lovely chat about how we millennials grew up listening to Taylor Swift, which added a fun and personal touch to our celebration. She truly went above and beyond to make our anniversary memorable. Not only did we receive a complimentary cake as a thoughtful gesture, but she also surprised me with a Swiftie friendship bracelet—such a sweet and unique detail that we’ll always remember. The food was amazing from start to finish. My husband had the New England Chowder for his appetizer, while I enjoyed the shrimp salad. For our mains, we both chose the surf n’ turf—our favorite—and it did not disappoint. We ended the night with a delicious sticky toffee pudding, along with the complimentary cake. Everything—from the incredible food to the warm, attentive service—made our night so special. Thank you, Coast, for such a memorable anniversary celebration! 💕“

“Great food, the owner comes around to every table asking how everything was. His passion is cooking and the restaurant has been around for forty years. Nice interior, open and child friendly.“

“I didn’t like pizza, but Rocky Mountain Flatbread changed my mind. Great service, well priced, delicious food, lots of options for everyone. Recommended.“

“I went to your restaurant for the first time this Oct. The love you showed us through your food is beyond any words could say. The food was amazing, and the family-style service allowed me to try a variety of excellent Palestinian cuisine. I cannot wait to bring my family and eat again at your restaurant. I HIGHLY recommend your food and restaurant.“

“While in Vancouver the beginning of November for medical appointments. My wife and I were undecided on were to eat. We walked out of our motel. Looked across the street and saw the Italian Kitchen, we walked over and asked if they had any seats available, it was a very busy night ,got our seats and our sever was Sam he was very pleasant. My wife and I both so impressed with our meal. If we ever go back to Vancouver I know we're I will be eating.“

“I had previously raised a complaint because my pizza wasn’t up to the mark, but I’m genuinely impressed with how well the management handled the situation. They called me personally, listened to my concern, and resolved the issue properly. They even offered me a free medium pizza as a gesture, which I really appreciated.
When I went to pick up the replacement pizza, the cashier was also very polite and treated me with great respect. They even apologized, and honestly, I felt a little bad because I realized my complaint may have put the employee in an uncomfortable situation. At the time of my original complaint, I was genuinely disappointed with the pizza, so I only wanted to make sure my concern was heard.

But this time, the pizza was 100% satisfying. The quality and toppings were much better, and I really appreciate the team for taking my feedback seriously and making things right.

Thank you to the management and the entire team for handling the situation professionally and going the extra mile to make a customer happy. Not every restaurant takes complaints this seriously, so I really appreciate the effort. This experience has definitely changed my impression, and I’ll be happy to order from here again. ❤🍕“

“I don’t usually leave reviews, but Manya truly deserves one. She greeted me with a genuine smile and made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. She was patient, kind, and made sure everything with my order was just right. It’s rare to come across someone who clearly cares about their customers. The pizza was fresh and delicious, but Manya’s friendly attitude is what made the experience memorable. Thank you for making my day a little better!“

“We had a stellar experience at this venue yesterday. The service was up to par and the menu was amazing. I can't say I have any complaints at all!“

“wow this is amazing! I had the gluten free Crist with all vegan options. so delicious. you have to try it!!“

“Picked up 4 cookies before taking the Rocky Mountaineer train to Banff. They were each out of this world and I wish I could snap my fingers and be right there, any time I wanted. Never had anything like this, anywhere else.“

“I had a great experience at Freshslice late at night. I arrived about 20 minutes before closing, and even though they were getting ready to close, Sakshi was incredibly kind and never made me feel rushed. She happily took my order, customized my pizza exactly the way I wanted, and provided excellent customer service with a smile.

The pizza turned out absolutely delicious—fresh, hot, and full of flavor! Thank you, Sakshi, for going above and beyond to make my experience so enjoyable. Employees like you make customers want to come back. Highly recommended!“

“Finally got to try this place yesterday. It was delicious! My only disappointment was we didn’t get there till late in the day and I would have loved to try so savory pastries. Next time we make the drive into Vancouver this will be our first stop!“

“They have the best food and service!!“

“Great cocktails and excellent service“

“I’m long due to leave a review here,I have been coming for a few years and it has never let me down. I think I’ve tried it all, everyone I know loves it, and everyone I recommend it to loves it. Just try 1 chicken parm and make your judgement.“

“I went in on my birthday to get get some quick breakfast to start my day. Not only were the staff amazing, the food was really tasty. To top it off, when they found out it was my birthday, they made me an awesome birthday card. Thank you Tipper Family, much love.“

“Great Kosher restaurant for best meat courses. The fish was cooked perfectly, like all the other dishes we ordered.“

“This is my second time at MeeT on Main and I am writing it yet another review as it truly deserves! This place is a MUST go. Last year I found myself unsure of where to take my girlfriend for our first real dinner date due to her dietary restrictions and tentatively made our way for this Vegan restaurant that both I and her had raised a brow about (For more on that review seek out Raven Bramblepaw on Google reviews to see!) But we are more than pleased to say we have returned and couldn't be happier to have done so, this time bringing with us my girlfriends parents. The food was just as good as we remembered, possibly even better as it is not an over exaggeration that if you did not know what was infront of you was vegan, you likely wouldn't guess. This restaurant will continue to be a staple for my relationship with my girlfriend Fox, and we will continue to come back every year if we should be so lucky. Thank you Astrid and Co. for the warm return welcome, and we look forward to coming back for another tasty bite!“

“Very nice atmosphere—both pretty and cozy! The proportion is also good!

The ice cream options, especially for the dairy-free, felt a bit limited, though. The ones there felt few and somewhat generic. The more interesting ones were all dairy. Slightly disappointing to see.“

“Fabulous restaurant. We have dined there on previous visits to Vancouver from Sydney, Australia and have never been disappointed
The food is superbly prepared and beautifully presented with great attention to detail - in other words, it's delicious.
The staff are professional, courteous and knowledgeable with a sense of humour when apprpriate, which helps make for a memorable dining experience. Our two most recent dinners there delivered the best three course meals we've ever had.
Do yourself a favour and book a table in this charming restaurant.“

“I had a great dining experience here. This has been the first time lve been back since the reopen and they have the same great food as before but some options to add meat now. The service was amazing, food was delish and portions were huge. I would definitely come back. It was a delightful experience!“

“Healthy food options with good staff from an international background.“

“Nice setting, delicious food (halibut, fish and chips, steak). And great service!“

“We shared this dish and it was really tasty.“

“Came by here after a world cup match and was thoroughly impressed. You'd be hard pressed to find a better pint of Guinness in Vancouver (though my catalogue on this trip was limited.)

The spice bag was good but not the best I've ever had, though the portion was surely adequate!

5 stars from me.“

“Todo delicioso, muy recomendable“

“They make the best cakes ever ! Also excellent customer service.“

“Had a great experience at Freshslice! The pizza was fresh, delicious, and perfectly made. The service was excellent, and Ravneet Kaur was very friendly and helpful. Really appreciated the great customer service. Definitely recommend Freshslice — will definitely come back again! 🍕❤“

“Oh my gosh, wow. So good.“

The staff are very friendly and the place is well maintained.“

“I visited the Freshslice Joyce location this past Sunday morning with my two daughters, and we had an amazing experience! The staff members were incredibly warm, welcoming and so sweet to my kids. Both service and the food were absolutely outstanding. They truly went above and beyond to make our visit special. We will definitely keep supporting this location!“

“I had one of their burritos, absolutely delicious. I'm not vegan or vegetarian but it's definitely got something for everyone. Staff are great too. I enjoyed my lunch here, I'll bring a friend next time. They have pretty small glasses of beer on offer too which is a great idea if you want a beer but don't want much. I wish more places had this.“

“Our office of 25 did a Chop Chop Beat the Clock with Skript Kitchen in June. Everyone learned how to make a Thai sauce base and we competed in teams to make the best dish. Everyone had so much fun and it was a wonderful team-building experience. Renee was well organized, patient with us (very much needed in a big loud group!) and taught us some little tricks, as well as sharing recipes with us after. Her assistant Camila was excellent with organizing behind the scenes. Seating is a bit uncomfortable for longer periods like ours but otherwise would highly recommend.“

“Made feel very welcome by the friendly staff, stylish decor and subdued lighting with seating that was spacious to provide that intimate atmosphere. Menu was extensive and the food was great, particularly loved the treacle sponge 😋 Bar area had TVs and music was playing for those that wanted a more social vibe.“

“My parents (69 and 71) were hosting Christmas Dinner at their house. My father decided to order Christmas dinner from Fresh In Your Fridge so Christmas dinner could be stress-free for all while still enjoying a delicious family meal. We were all so impressed! The meal instructions were simple and easy to follow and the food was just incredible. Our meal started with a winter green salad that was a hit with everyone around the table, including my normally veggie-adverse husband and the kids! He and the children even had seconds. The main course - turkey roulade with stuffing, creamy mashed potatoes, mixed roasted veggies, and gravy - was all delicious! The portions were so generous - there were 10 of us and there were leftovers at the end of the meal. Finally, a pear crumble with caramel sauce for dessert… So tasty and the perfect ending to a perfect meal. Minimal clean up afterwards - dishes done within 10 minutes! My father declared this is how he would like to host all big family meals in the future! Thanks to the Fresh In You Fridge team for making this Christmas extra special for our family“

“Anytime I'm in Vancouver this is always a spot to go to. Birthday celebrations, lunch date or romantic dinner. The food is always delicious, flavorful and perfect balance of spices. I always recommend this place for anytime dinning. The staff are amazing and the recommendations are on point. ny favorite time to go are evenings - intimate and cozy. 5 stars !!!!“

“What an awesome and amazing place! I ordered a Neopolitan cake for my Mom's 91st birthday and it was so yummy! She thought it was ice cream. The staff and owners are lovely. From start to finish, everything was a piece of cake. (Thank you so much.)“

“After trying most of Vancouver's well-known bakeries, Beyond Bread is the one that stood out to me. If you're serious about sourdough, this is as close as I've found to the real thing in the city.

The owner trained in France, and it shows in the craftsmanship. My favourites are the Light Rye and the Country Loaf—both have a beautiful crust, an inviting aroma, and the kind of texture you'd expect from a proper loaf. The flavour is good overall, although I still think there's a little room for improvement to make it truly exceptional.

The bakery itself is small, relaxed, and welcoming, making it a nice place to stop by whether you're picking up a loaf or enjoying a coffee. For anyone searching for sourdough in Vancouver, Beyond Bread would be my first recommendation.“
