CALIFORNIA
Proposition Chicken
Location: Oakland, California
“I love a restaurant with a dedicated fryer, which Proposition Chicken has. Much of the menu can be made gluten-free, I’ll be honest, the chicken tenders were not my favorite (the breading was too thick for my taste), but the potato wedges were delicious. Still, this fits the criteria for a celiac-safe place to eat.”

Location: Orlando, Florida
“We had dairy-free and gluten-free pizza, chicken nuggets, and fries in dedicated fryers! Other sides included pre-packaged apple slices and carrot sticks. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process! Make sure to speak with someone regarding your allergies and concerns instead of placing a mobile order! The food was delicious and they have great allergy protocols.”

“They were very safe and had a lot of options. I ate really good gluten-free food (crab cake, lava cake, carrot cake, waffles, chicken nuggets, pizza). They had a head waiter come out and take my order. Only issue is it took a long time, but it was because it was really safe which is good.”

Great Wolf Lodge
Location: LaGrange, Georgia
“The head chef was amazing! I wish I could remember his name because he remembered our daughter’s name and said hi to her every time we passed him in the lodge. He prepared a safe hamburger (no bun), hotdog (no bun) and grilled chicken strips along with French fries. All top 8-free, as they used rice oil for frying and designated fryers to avoid cross-contamination. Such a great experience for our family to enjoy a relaxing getaway and feel confident that our daughter had safe meal options.”

“Completely gluten-free facility. Pretty good variety too… mostly sandwiches, but also chicken strips, fries, soup, desserts, etc. Honestly, the taste is just good, but not great, in my opinion. But the peace of mind knowing I won’t get sick is more than worth it!”

The concession stand is called World’s Fare Market and has all the ballpark classics like gluten-free burgers, hot dogs, chicken fingers and fries, and so much more! Definitely on the pricey side, like anything you get at a stadium, but overall the food was delicious and safe!”

It’s the only restaurant I order from consistently! The prices aren’t too bad either for gluten-free!”

Great Wolf Lodge Pocono Mountains
Location: Scotrun, Pennsylvania
“Recently went to Great Wolf Lodge for a night and had a great experience! The staff is very educated on celiac disease and will have a manager come out to speak to you about your food options. We only had two meals at the lodge, but I felt the food I ate was safe and protocols were explained. Outpost in the pool area has a dedicated gluten-free fryer and can safely make gluten-free chicken tenders and fries. They also had gluten-free pizza available. Many breakfast options as well at all of their food service locations in the lodge! You don’t have to leave the lodge at all in my opinion.”

She did not have any celiac symptoms and we will definitely go back to this facility.”

Niche Gluten-free Dining
Location: London, United Kingdom
“A totally gluten-free and nut-free restaurant! Really delicious and a great range of full meal options . Highly recommend making a reservation beforehand as it was very crowded 15 mins after opening and is a small restaurant. I had short rib with mashed potatoes and roasted carrots along with foccia – kiddos had chicken fingers and pasta and my husband had lamb. What dining dreams are made of.”

ITALY
Ristorante Quinoa
Location: Florence, Italy
“This place is 100% gluten-free and serves ‘American’ food. I had the fried chicken strips, potato wedges, and my wife had a burger. They serve fresh bread and olive oil to start. Make a reservation if you’re not Italian because they’ll turn you away (that left a sour taste in our mouth because the place was empty when they turned away a few desperate celiacs). Italians without reservations were seated immediately but maybe that’s just a cultural thing.”
