Gluten-Free Restaurants in Philadelphia, PA

“Great atmosphere and service. The food and desserts are a treat for the tastebuds!“

“Both the food and the service are Excellent.“

“Delicious food. Friendly people.“

“My best friend brought me to this hidden gem last summer for my birthday and surprised me with a return visit this year — and I swear, it just keeps getting better. Hands down, this might be the best Italian in Philly. The food doesn’t just sit pretty on the plate — it jumps out, grabs you by the soul, and gives you a warm, savory hug. Every bite is a bold, beautiful explosion of flavor that hits you in the heart and the taste buds. This place isn’t just dinner — it’s a love story in pasta form.“

“Exceptional food, staff is incredibly friendly. Paesano's hosted a private event, the results were spectacular. A very welcoming environment. Pete, the chef, accomdated allergies, took the time to talk a bit about the courses. I will definitely be back to Paesano's.“

“Amazing pastries and coffee! Came in for a quick bfast and enjoyed lots of new flavors.“

“Loved it!“

“This bakery never disappoints! Both of my girls loved your Gryffindor cupcakes at Harry Potter days in the early 2000s. You made a gorgeous celestial cake for my oldest during the pandemic and, most recently, a beautiful and delicious 25th birthday cake with the F1 theme she asked for. Thank you for such consistent quality over the years! ❤️“

“I was so impressed with this place. We went for our anniversary and everything was amazing. The staff were so nice and our waitress Jacqueline was so great!! The food was incredible. I couldn't stop talking about how great the gnocci was. Will def come here again and recommend to others!“

“We love the croissant and bagels! Can’t wait to try more yummy things next week! And it’s AMAZING to have delivery.“

“We just had the best breakfast here - amazing food, even better service. A true hole in the wall spot (because it’s tiny but so cute, lots of character!). I got eggs benedict and my husband got a breakfast burrito. We cleaned our plates! We’re from out of town, headed back to the airpot later, and our server offered to fill up our water bottles too. She was a delight. I thanked her for being so lovely and without missing a beat she said “I’ve learned that being mean to people doesn’t make me any taller!”“

“It never disappoints. No matter what you may choose it’s delicious!“

“Great location. Only a short wait to be seated. Very good hosts working well to get guests to a table. Kristina was our waitress and she was great. Friendly and good service!“

“yes....great place. chill. good food...and, of course, coffee...“

“As wonderful as I remember. A true cc gem. Get the tiramisu“

“Delicious and fresh Brazilian dessert“

“I've always had good baked goods here - it's becoming a traditional stop when we come to the city! Best things I've had here are the maple oatmeal scones and the brown butter pound cake - phenomenal! What baked goods are supposed to taste like!“

“I live in South Philly and didn't even know this place existed. A friend told me about it and said it was good so I ordered from GrubHub and mannnn it did NOT disappoint! So much goodness in flavor and portion size. I tried the beef todero and tequeños and both were 10/10. I can't wait to try their arepas! My grandfather immigrated to Venezuela before coming to the US and used to make us some and haven't had any since. Looking forward to trying more.“

“The donuts were so good! The best and freshest I’ve ever had since being gluten free for 12 years. A few were even warm! Amazing!“

“We enjoyed a great evening with my folks and the SN’L jazz duo. I ordered the standard flight and the Rte 23 hand pie with salad. Everything—music and cider and food—was inventive. Normally in a cider flight I’ll only really love 1/4; but all of these were unique and drinkable. Had fun talking with the knowledgeable staff. Traditional cider was just the right amount of dry; the ginger the driest with subtle ginger notes. I chose the blood orange as my seasonal and it was my favorite! The hand pie was delicious with a savory beef and mushroom filling and flaky crust, and the salad was also great, not your usual side salad, with homemade dressing. Service was friendly and awesome. Check them out when you get the chance—wonderful spot with a neighborhood feel!“

“We’ve been coming here for years. The menu has changed, but the quality has not! From chaat, to lassi, to their desserts… we recommend all of it. One of our favorite places, and we can use uBerEats now so it’s even more convenient!“

“I love just love this place and their cakes. Very tasty beautiful and great served. Thank god they are 40 minutes away from me. Otherwise I would be there every day.“

“Quality coffee, pastries made with love and the most charming duo running the place.“

“Cuối tuần lại ghé Vietnam Restaurant & Café, gọi một tô phở bò tái nóng hổi kèm ly cà phê sữa đá thơm lừng. Ăn xong uống thêm ngụm cà phê là thấy tỉnh táo, cả ngày thoải mái hẳn. Quán ấm cúng, đồ ăn thì chuẩn vị quê nhà“

“AMAZING!!! Certified FOOD SNOB enjoyed brunch!!! Had the smoked salmon eggs benny & a small continental salad. The rose was perfect!!! I hate sweet wine...it wasn't too dry either!!! Definitely will return!!! The weather was perfect to enjoy brunch on the rooftop!!!“

“What a charming little restaurant! I sat at the bar on a work trip for an early dinner, which they actually have a menu for! Prices are reasonable for the city, and 4-6 is happy hour so I came at the right time for great prices and drinks and appetizers. Would definitely recommend! Plus this is walking distance to many nice hotels downtown. Only 5 min walk from the Kimpton Palomar! Would recommend calling ahead to ensure availability.“

“Wait staffers very helpful with menu“

“I was in the area and decided to pop by to try a thing or two. Not knowing anyone who had tried them before I stuck to the small, individual sized items…browned butter chocolate chip cookies, morning croissant and some pizza dough. It all comes frozen but I had other places to go so some started defrosting in the car. Here’s my review of each. Cookies - I don’t like ANY chocolate chip cookie that doesn’t have nuts in them. I usually wouldn’t even buy them, I decided to try these because of the browned butter. I had one in the car before I got home and they were AMAZING! I shocked myself at how much I enjoyed them. They were soft without being chewy, a feature I hate in cookies personally, and had nice crispy edges, even after defrosting! The taste, texture and everything about these defied all that I thought was possible with a gf cookie! 10 out of 10 Pizza dough - since it was defrosted by the time I got him I decided to make a couple mini pizzas. I used half the dough, I bag will easily make 4-5 personal sized pizzas. I thought I had rolled it too thin as it started to break apart so I made it a little thicker. It rises while cooking so when I do the rest, I’ll leave it thinner for sure. Because other gf pizzas seem to have such difficulty cooking in the city I was concerned when I saw these rising. But they cooked up beautifully! It was soooo nice having gf pizzas seem that had the taste and texture of traditional crust. I appreciate suppliers for having the option available, and some are better than others…but the Flakely dough is the standard now! I’ll never buy another gf pizza, whether it be a restaurant or a market. 10 out of 10 Morning croissant - I put this right in the freezer so I haven’t tasted it yet. But it looks phenomenal! They described it as a cross between a cinnamon roll and a croissant. You can’t go wrong with that combo as a general thing but given how the cookie and pizza dough has tasted, I have no doubt this will be terrific as well! Run, don’t walk, over to their shop and let’s make sure they’re around for the long haul. Just beware, they might spoil you against some of your existing faves!“

“The food and the service was awesome they were very polite the food was delicious I had to call and let them know this was first time ordering there and my first time ever taking the time to leave a review and I was very pleased how they made my food just the way I wanted it thank you until next time !!!“

“This reminds me of frozen yogurt from the 90s, that kind that tastes pretty indistinguishable from soft serve, just lighter, which is what I like. I'm not a fan of tangy fro-yo, & this isn't that. It's self serve, & there's lots of different toppings. The store is cute & has plenty of seating.“

“Had the salted caramel doughnut bc my wife wanted a taste. Caramel is never MY first choice, but it was quite possibly the best pastry I’ve ever eaten.“

“🥰Frieda: one of my most treasured places. I love its casual sophistication, delicious European-inspired food, and charming, considerate personnel.“

“Love FSC, the location is great, ambience and food are wonderful. The outdoor patio is very cute also just be careful they don't sit you in full sun. St upstairs for the first time, very cute area but need more than 1 server up there. Poor guy was running ragged handling all the tables, we had to wait awhile to put in order and never got offered refills since he was always too busy running food and taking orders.“

“Love the seXy Bartenders food is bussin“

“Cozy, welcome little neighborhood eatery in South Philly. Our party of 5 had both lunch and breakfasts. All were big hits! Pictures below was one of the specials-short rib grilled cheese. Should be a menu regular! It was fabulous! A generous serving so tender and great flavor. We’ll be back! A great find!“

“SUPERB - great coffee, worth supporting!“

“One of my favorite go to spots when I worked in Chestnut Hill a very long time ago! The vibe has not changed a decade later! It was great to come in with my highly energetic son, enjoy the great vibes and coffee! Times have changed but they haven't! I had different drink experiences on different days and they were accommodating every time. Thanks for being so welcoming, and inviting! Young messy ppl take PATIENCE“

“*4.5/5 Stars*

I recently discovered Good Karma Cafe and I'm hooked! This charming spot exceeded my expectations with its warm atmosphere, top-notch service, and delicious food.

The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, happily answering our questions about the menu. We indulged in their mouthwatering chicken sandwiches on sourdough bread, paired with refreshing lemonade and iced tea. The cozy back dining room, adorned with vibrant art and lush greenery, made for a pleasant dining experience.

Their breakfast and brunch menu boasts an array of tempting options, making me eager to return. Standouts include the Colonel Mustard sandwich and almond croissant.

Good Karma Cafe excels in:

- Friendly, attentive staff
- Beautiful decor
- Excellent selection of hot and cold beverages
- Tasty sandwiches and pastries
- Ample seating
- Convenient WiFi and water for customers

Minor drawbacks:

- Limited outdoor seating
- Coffee (large latte) was bitter and milk was over-steamed (though smoothies were great!)

Overall, Good Karma Cafe is an ideal spot for a satisfying breakfast or lunch. I'll definitely be back for more!

Parking: Usually you can find a spot pretty close by“

“This place is great! The staff are genuinely really nice and the food and coffee is awesome. This is my new favorite coffee place in the city after trying quite a few! The prices are good, sizes are generous, and they have a lot of fun specialty drinks that I’m excited to go back and try. I got the iced honey lavender latte and it was delicious ( they also offer dairy alternative milks so that’s a plus).“

“We came here for a Saturday lunch, and everything was amazing! The food was absolutely delicious—fresh ingredients, the best Pad See Ew I’ve ever had. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, and the owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Order seafood for Christmas Eve and it’s always delicious 🤤“

“Vibes were most excellent. I was a little disappointed by the lack of Apple Juice on the menu but my server Isabelle more than made up for it. She helped me find a suitable substitute that matched perfectly with the selection of appetizer’s. Will definitely be back, and hungry!!“

“what a great place with delicious drinks and a wonderful tour.“

“I have celiac disease and was at a medical conference in the conference center above Reading Market. Having celiac disease makes dining out that conference is an adventure. The staff were very helpful courteous. The food came quickly and was hot. I would recommend trying a corn dog as well as the poutine.“

“Finally, a cheesecake that knows what it’s doing. The blueberry cheesecake was absolutely delicious, creamy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Every bite was spot on. I took it home to eat, No gimmicks, no nonsense, just a fantastic dessert done right. Outstanding work, Crust Vegan Bakery! 🍰🔥“

“This is mainly a review of their catering but the bar/restaurant is also a great place to visit!! We hired 2637brew for our holiday work party this year and I am so impressed with the entire experience. Everything was so easy, so enjoyable and of course so delicious!!! After submitting my inquiry for catering on their website, Mino called me right away to discuss our options and created a custom menu based on our budget, expectations, and dietary needs (vegetarian options). This was a rather late inquiry in my opinion (only 2 weeks before the event!!) and Mino assured me that everything would be just fine - and it totally was! We had two staff from 2636brew at the party to assist. They brought spring rolls, spanakopita, salad, meatballs and rolls, coleslaw, blackened chicken and alfredo pasta, and so many veggie options! Everything was outstanding! So many people were raving about how good the food was. And they brought a perfect amount of food. She even took care of our bartenders which was so nice!! Our venue did not have staff to work the party, so I had asked Mino to stay at the party to help maintain a clean space and they really helped to keep on top of the mess everyone was making! It was a HUGE help because I was able to enjoy myself and not worry about the clean up during the party. There was not much clean up at all by the end of the night. Their service was incredibly friendly and welcoming! Meeting Mino actually felt like she was a long time friend. I'm SO GLAD that we decided to work with 2637brew for this party.. they made the party planning so much less stressful and made me look like a star for pulling off something so wonderful! A HUGE thanks to them! As a side note - I also live in the area and went here for brunch the other day and was just as equally impressed with their location. The food was awesome! I ordered the Rancheros (I think that was the name on the menu) it was a bacon wrapped avocado with egg baked in it and some beans and salsa on the side. SO good and so pretty! My friend ordered Lobster Benedict and we also shared a plate of Bananas Foster french toast and ....you guys....!!! The caramelized banana slices and the crispy warm bread with melty vanilla ice cream ughhhh it was so amazing!!! Brunch is definitely recommended here! And service is great, I never had an empty mimosa glass :) Try this place out - you're going to LOVE it! I'm lucky to live so close and can't wait to visit more regularly!“

“Friendly Service and a great setting. Felt very laidback and comfortable there“

“Had the salted caramel doughnut bc my wife wanted a taste. Caramel is never MY first choice, but it was quite possibly the best pastry I’ve ever eaten.“
