Honestly, it’s hard for me to imagine life without Jewel’s. It’s a Celiac’s paradise: a dedicated gluten free bakery and cafe that does everything from custom wedding cakes to chicken and waffles. Jewel’s has a fantastic bakery section and an extensive menu of both healthy bites and Southern comfort food. The first couple of times I went, I ordered several dishes– I just couldn’t decide what I wanted more!

Grabbagreen is my favorite place to go when I’m low on time and looking for a nutritious meal to keep me going for the rest of the day. You can choose from their menu of bowls, wraps, and smoothies, or build your own meal, adding in a wide variety of wholesome ingredients. The best part? Everything is gluten free.

Picazzo’s was the first gluten free haven I discovered in Phoenix. Based in Sedona, this Arizona chain’s entire menu, filled with Italian carbs and healthy dishes alike, can be made gluten free, but its so good, you can’t even tell!
The Counter

The Counter is my newest discovery, and after one burger, I decided to immediately add it to my list of favorites. The gluten free bun is to die for and you can build your own burger to include just about any ingredient you can imagine. Located right off the light-rail at Central and Adams, The Counter is my new favorite downtown spot!
P.F. Chang’s

P.F. Chang’s may be everywhere, but they are a great go-to for gluten free diners. Reliable and consistent, P.F. Chang’s offers a wide variety of Asian dishes that are very hard to find in the gluten free world. What’s more, they have separate plates and bowls for their gluten free items to ensure nothing gets mixed up!
