Gluten-Free Restaurants near Manitou Springs, CO

“Had the Eggplant Parmesan & hubby had the calzone. The rest of our party had pizza. Excellent service. Our waitress was attentive and helpful. The Calpine was excellent, the eggplant was delicious. I had the 'light' portion, and I couldn't finish it! Big portions. The pizzas are delicious, and the ambiance is casual. Recommend.“

“I loved how much variety of food and options there is! I went here to go grab some ice cream and saw how much the store adores dogs. They have dog magnets, cookies and more! My dog really loves the cookies they have here. I love the ice cream they have!“

“A unique old feel, the restaurant was very nice. The food was very good. Everyone loved the breakfast options they chose and essentially ate everything they ordered. The lattes were also spot on which is a good way to start the day.Lots of vegan options.“

“Absolutely loved the pizza here and the garlic knots. Would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a pizza or just a snack. The have some combo deals with a slice or two and some knots and a drink or you can just get full pizzas. This restaurant is in a great location in Manitou Springs Colorado right next to the mountains and plenty of shopping around the restaurant. Loved this place and will definitely be returning.“

“From beginning to the end, it was a wonderful meal. Arrived early and the place filled up fast. Everything is fresh, not the traditional heavy Mexican. The queso is lovely and not spicy, but you know how to do that yourself to your desired level. The chips are cripsy and thin as they are made in-house, yay. The plates are large, so if you are a light luncher, consider bringing a friend to share with!The tres Leche cupcake was a moist and divine ending to the meal.“

“Recently, Zara and I came in just because and we had Josh help us. He is seriously incredible. We come back each time because of him. He makes us feel like friends. The other times we came in my kiddo, Zara, didn’t like how bitter some of the fondues are. He recommended a way to alleviate that. And of course, we scarfed it down. He always recommends drinks and ways to make our experience better. The last time we were here, someone else took care of us and that person forgot us in a corner. But Josh is never overbearing or forgetful. Plus, each and every time, he draws something special for Zara on her dessert plate. It’s those small things that make a huge difference to us. He cares and it shows. I hope he sees this and knows just how much he has impacted our visits with you. Thank you, Josh.“

“While the food and atmosphere are fabulous, what keeps us coming back is the service. While the restaurant is full of people, they manage to make us feel like we're the only ones there. We have been in for birthdays and anniversaries and they always help us celebrate in a special way. Can not recommend this restaurant enough!“

“Vegan options are amazing. Food is delicious. Lemonade was delicious and made fresh. We will definitely try their marinated tofu next visit. It is one of my now top two vegan restaurants in Colorado. Great atmosphere, amazing customer service, and the manager is so friendly and helpful. Great for family time or time alone or with friends.Dietary restrictions: Vegan options also. They will change up the menu for your current diet. Very convenient.Kid-friendliness: From the manager to all of the employees are very helpful and friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: Door seem big enough to accommodate entry, and they can move chairs to place you at a table.“

“Well, these have to be the BEST GF/Vegan donuts I have ever had. (Not joking). You won't be able to tell the difference if you've never a GF donut.The baking process and flour blend is unbelievable. And the frosting on top makes the donut all that much better.The coffee is great and so are the cinnamon rolls!Give it a try and you won't be disappointed.“

“1st and for most! Green Chilli is Delicious, Scrumptious, and words cannot come close to discribe the Glutness Joy my gut feels in finding this place. Every morsel I bit into my Taste Buds where dance to the beat of flavor Like a Olympian on the floor at the Olympics! Now the Fries! Love them! So much so I picked up a order to go. Not much eles came home with us. Mind you 6 Pies, 2 Bunz, Fries, Pepsi, Sudz, and Hospitality like being at Favorite Aunt House. The things we took home where Smiles. Satisfaction, and full stomachs! Thank Yous, Bunz'y & Booze! Till next time stay Delicious!“

“Fantastic sandwiches! Pastrami sandwich was a home run and the Doc Martin was an insanely delicious vegetarian sandwich option. I will be back... A lot!Vegetarian options: The only reason I marked somewhat instead of highly is because the vegetarian options were limited - but the Doc Martin was incredibly delightful.“

“Love, love, love this place! Exactly what a cozy, neighborhood coffee shop should be. Delicious eats, a wide variety of coffees and teas, and warm, friendly service. It's a great place to pick up something tasty and quick to go. Even better, bunker down and enjoy a leisurely morning in a very welcoming environment. Your first visit won't be your last!“

“Cookies were really good. Plenty of options. I went on a weekday evening, and service is dependent on the customers ahead of you choosing their cookies/ice cream. Seems they have a two person system one helps with cookies and the other is at the ice cream/cashier space. Workers are really nice and patient, but the person system during the week can be a little inconvenient if there’s a rush. It’s a space to grab and go, and price is comparable to other bakeries with cookies. Fairly priced for the size.Parking: Parking is tricky depending on day and time. Paid street parking nearby but also can be a few blocks away.“

“Cute little deli. Seems like a local favorite based on the traffic we saw while dining in. Prices were reasonable, but on the high end of reasonable. The cashier was friendly and patient with my questions and requests for recommendations. The food arrived in reasonable time. I had the pikes peak dip. The meat, cheese and au jus were nice, but the bread was a little too soft for good dipping. I think this same bread could work if it were tasted longer. I ended up putting a bit of cole slaw on my sandwich to add a bit of texture. The cole slaw was everything you'd expect cole slaw to be. There was also a cute little soda station with a less recognizable brand and fun flavors like cherry lime. We also got some of the cranberry and blueberry lemon breads. They were tasty and cake like.“

“They have a great selection of every article of clothing. I came here to get clothes for work, but they have a lot of things I would wear for every day, too. They tend to be kind of pricey, but that's not the fault of the store. The flex firehose cargo pants with the curvesetter waistband are worth it, though. Friendly and helpful staff, especially Aubrey, who helped me out a lot with my dozens of questions and requests!“

“My first time going today and will definitely go back ! I had a question about one of their coffees and the cashier was very informative. Though, I needed more caramel , I went back if they could add more and they were so polite and didn’t make me feel like a nuisance. Food was delicious!!!“

“I've came here a few times and still haven't been disappointed. It is great place for studying or hanging out with friends! The coffee is really good and reasonably priced. I haven't tried any of the food yet but it looks very delicious. If you do plan on coming, make sure to come here around opening time because it starts to get busy around 9 am and it can be hard to find a seat.“

“Fun little spot with great barbecue. Accommodating to gluten free diets, if needed. They also have live music and a nice patio area. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Hearty portion sizes with a wide variety of options.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free buns and notify on the menu that you can request items be made gluten free“

“This place is very cool / has character. I also was extra pleased with my omelette, had gravy on top which was the BEST! With so many chain restaurants going to a sanitized modern aesthetic grossness, it was awesome to dine here amongst the bears!“

“Super cute, cozy bakery shoppe. The cupcakes were divine: strawberry, lemon, chocolate, and my personal favorite almond.Witnessed the care and fun of a couple tasting for their wedding cake. Price for cupcakes makes stopping here a better buy than your daily coffee habit. They even had GF brownies!“

“Delicious treats! I picked a variety of things to share at a work gathering and everyone really enjoyed everything. I really don’t think you can go wrong: close your eyes and point to something. You’ll be very happy. Service was friendly and efficient. They also have a nice seating area to enjoy your goodies. I was there for the sweets but they also have bread!“

“Not wedding related, just wanted to try some cupcakes. Lady at the front was nice. I enjoyed the butter cream lemon cupcake, it was sweet but I love sweet so it was delicious! Price was comparable to other cupcake shops.Parking: Parking is fine. Off a busy road, but easy enough parking.“

“Everything was amazing! Our waiter, Simon, was the perfect level of attentive and provided excellent recommendations. We dined outside and the atmosphere was so serene. The food was impeccable. Every dish was well balanced and perfectly executed. Highly recommend!“

“Nice spot in Woodland Park! They have good coffee and spend a little extra to not use the run of the mill beans on both the espresso and the drip. They use an air pot for the drip that you can get your own refills. Staff is friendly and plenty of parking. They have house made desserts. The sandwiches are around $15 but they are a good value. They have plenty of meat, condiments and seasonings. The spicy italian is delicious.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free optionsParking: Plenty of parking“

“My boyfriend and I came in today for lunch, and I’ve been here several times but this time was exceptionally great! Kate was our server and she was amazing! Super attentive and friendly and made sure we had the best experience, I highly recommend asking for her when you go!“

“We came here pretty early on a Friday however the food and service were very good, but my favorite were the margaritas which were some of the best I've had. I highly recommend this place if your looking for quick and great food and amazing drinks.“

“I wanted to try this restaurant for a while, and I was lucky enough to have it for dinner tonight. It did not disappoint!!!! I can tell the food was made with love. I could not stop eating it and cannot wait to try something new next time! (:“

“My wife and I have road tripped over 100,000 miles together. We love to eat at little non-chain restaurants like this. Mountain Shadows is one of THE BEST we have ever eaten at. We ate there twice on our visit to CO Springs! Even with only two people waiting tables AND bussing, the service was amazing. Never felt forgotten about and they were friendly and personable. Will make a point to come here again anytime we come near Colorado Springs!“

“Caspian Café has become my favorite restaurant in the Springs. The food is always excellent; the service is attentive, but not intrusive. Atmosphere is quiet, allowing for good conversation amongst friends. It looks a bit homely from the outside - Don’t let that prevent you from enjoying the best Mediterranean culinary experience in Colorado Springs!“

“The corndogs were amazing!! The people were so helpful and I didn't feel like I was being rushed even though I can 20 min before closing. Sorry yall . I will be back again most definitely, hopefully to sit and enjoy next time.Vegetarian options: The corndogs have an option for just cheese, which aids in the vegetarian aspect. But it most definitely isn't a sit down and enjoy a full meal vegetarian spot, and is not a vegan spot at all.“

“A gluten free Tapas restaurant? I'm in heaven. A cozy place with an open kitchen so you can see the variety of completely gluten free delicious dishes being cooked right in front of you. Alyssa is a friendly, professional manager. Top top!Dietary restrictions: Completely gluten free!“

“We tried snooze and I have to tell you I was not dissapointed!! The service was fast and on time, and the food was amazing! We were on our way to Denver and decided to drop by and we were glad we did! I had the scrambled egg breakfast and my wife had the over easy breakfast which was **** chefs kiss!!“

“What a very interesting place! The café/bar is attached to a climbing wall facility. The host/server greeted me and, as per the standing sign, I seated myself. They serve her/host came over with water, and asked if I needed a menu to which I replied, yes. He handed me a barcode card after asking if I could use it. Since I am fairly tech savvy, I took it and looked at the menu, I asked for some ice tea, but all they had was canned. They also had a variety of beers, but I am not a beer drinker. I asked the young man what kind of sweet siders or wine drinks he had. He told me he had a very good sweet cider on tap, so I ordered that. Plus, it was happy hour, so I got a dollar off. I decided that the Roman sounded good, and after chatting with the server/host, decided to have it with the pulled pork added. Everything came very quickly, and the food was wonderful! The Seiter was delicious. The pulled pork Ramin was very very good, I look forward to taking my husband and son to the Ute!“

“I have always loved the food here amazing burgers and chili but the waitress was a huge part of my 5 stars. We had Crista as our waitress and she never stopped. Always walking the floor greeting guests keeping an eye on tables and their meal flow so main courses came as soon as the appetizer was finished drinks never empty, and overheard me say I was getting full and brought a box. 10/10 all around for her.“

“I got the grilled cheese with garlic aioli. I definitely declared this the best grilled cheese I've ever eaten. I'm sad I don't live around here. Their staff is very nice and provide a pleasant experience. The coffee is smooth. Atmosphere was chill. I like that the space was pretty bright and spacious. 10/10.“

“Very neat building and excellent espresso, far better than any of the "coffee chains" in the area. We were in town for 4 days and went to a different coffee shop each morning and this was by far the best tasting espresso we had. Definitely wish we would have stopped more than once. You will not be disappointed and it's always good to support local shops like this one.“

“We LOVE Benne's Sweet Treats! We've ordered cakes, cupcakes and more savory treats and they've all been delicious and beautiful! As vegans in high altitude, it's so hard to bake yourself/find great baked goods and Benne's nails it! Alexondria is always quick to respond and works hard to provide top notch products. Her prices are competitive with the grocery stores but quality is far beyond- so why not suppprt a local COS gal?! Place your order today!“

“This was our favorite quick bite spot at the Broadmoor. Staff were friendly, service was quick and food was good. We always found a place to sit no matter how busy they looked. We ordered their house coffee, cafe latte, sticky buns, turkey sandwich, fruit cup, strawberry smoothies, croissant filled with cheese and turkey. Highly recommend the croissant with turkey and cheese as it was flavorful. The croissant was perfectly flaky and buttery. Average cost was $50+“

“I was super excited they had a peanut butter flavor, but I couldn't taste the peanut butter at all. I mixed it with chocolate flavor, and that didn't seem chocolatey. It's good, just can't really distinguish the flavors. My hubby said the same. HUGE toppings bar! Kiddo loved the brownie bites.“

“I’ve been on the hunt for a traditional Italian restaurant for a very long time now. I am devastated that there’s been a great one here the entire time and I didn’t know about it. We went for NYE and I can’t tell you how happy I am that they had space last minute. Myself and two other adults tried three different unique drinks, all were amazing. We had three different pasta dishes, again, phenomenal. Then we proceeded to order dessert, which we never do, because we were so inspired by the food and drinks, how could we not try some traditional desserts?.. they were magical. So the food, drinks and dessert, all amazing, traditional flavors. The staff were all wonderful, friendly and helpful. Overall I would give them 10 stars if I could.“

“I love all the community engagements this location does! Thank you Renee for keeping the fun for all going! Plus of course the food is so amazing, even when I am there for 5 hours during an event I get hungry over and over because the SMELLS are so incredible! Also thank you for sponsoring the Indoor Family Halloween Festival 2023 with Connecting Communities at The SoccerHaus2:30pm-7:30pm and Connecting Communities looks forward to many many more opportunities with you all!“

“Outside the Breadbox is great for those who have several food allergies! I have a 6 year old son who is severely allergic to most of the top 14 common allergens plus several other food allergies. I sincerely appreciate their company’s mission and for helping families with food allergies have a safe option for baked goods. Their vegan oat bread is the only safe sliced bread I’ve been able to find for my son and it will continue to be our repeat order. My son loves them so that makes us huge fans! Thank you, Outside the Breadbox!“

“I love their single slice pizzas to order! Their pizza slices are huge! I ordered two slices, but one was more than enough. Their pizza crust is nice and crispy on the edges (I prefer crisp pizza over soggy flimsy pizza). They have plenty of vegan options to include a variety of vegan pastries. They do, however, run out of vegan pastries from time to time. I highly recommend the chickpea bar with chocolate chips (I don't remember what it's actually called). They also have a big hot tea menu, which I love! Yhe staff if very friendly and helpful when I've asked for drink and food recommendations. They have a ton of unique cards for almost any occasion, a good selection of books to choose from, and live music on select evenings (check their website). There's plenty of seating and metered parking. Please know that this place can get loud during the evenings, but it personally doesn't bother me.“

“Favorite donut in Colorado!! Been coming here close to 10 years now and have never had a bad experience. Favorite places to take my Nephews for breakfast!!Parking: Lots of parking and easy accessWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair entrance and parking easy to get in and out!!“

“Came here with a friend last week and it was such a unique menu and spot to eat. I tried the 2 pupusa plate (carnitas & cheese and Pueblo chili & cheese) and both were absolutely delicious. Also got the curtido on the side with a Salvadoran horchata. Next time I’m in, I don’t need two pupusas. They were very filling! Hope to try other ones on future trips.“

“Their chips and salaa with pico are amazing! Birria quesadillas made for a fantastic start. The Yucatan Lime Soup and Honey Lime Chicken Salad were both good, but no lime was provided to complement the dishes. Coconut Flan was a happy and delicious finish.“

“Ate here on a Saturday afternoon and got two salads and a large pizza. Food was excellent, staff was pleasant, bathrooms were clean, and the general ambiance is great. I enjoy eateries/bars/coffee shops in shopping centers as opposed to standalones. Atmosphere really is great, with an exception for if there is a large party of kids. Their voices carry so well that it can be deafening for others. Once the kids left the only audible sounds were kitchen-supplied music, which I enjoyed. Will definitely return.“

“I recently dined at Chaang Thai, a spot I've been curious about due to its glowing reviews and, let me tell you, it did not disappoint. The highlight of my visit was the Khow Soy, a dish that promises a complex flavor profile and delivers spectacularly. The noodles were impeccably made, providing a satisfying texture that perfectly complemented the star of the dish: the curry broth. The curry broth was a marvel of culinary expertise, rich with a myriad of spices and flavors that danced on the palate. Every sip revealed a new layer, from the earthy undertones of turmeric to the aromatic heights of lemongrass and galangal. It was evident that the chef has mastered the delicate balance of flavors that make Khow Soy so beloved. I opted for the highest level of heat available, and it was a decision that paid off. The spice didn't just add heat; it elevated the dish, intensifying the myriad flavors and making each bite a fiery revelation. It's a must-try for those who appreciate a good kick in their meal. While I didn't venture into the appetizers this time, the buzz around me suggested that the spring rolls are a crowd pleaser. Given the high quality of my Khow Soy, I have no doubt that they're every bit as delicious as rumored. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to try them out. In summary, Chaang Thai is a four-star gem that offers a delightful culinary experience, especially for those who dare to explore its spicier offerings. Whether you're a fan of intricate, flavorful dishes or just in search of some truly excellent noodles, Chaang Thai promises and delivers.“
