Nowadays, going gluten-free is pretty common. Some people are actually Coeliac while others just prefer this diet over any other. After all, arenโt we passed the point of making fun of people who prefer their food without gluten? If you or someone you know is restricted to a coeliac diet but still hoping to go out and enjoy some good food, we have got you covered.
Eating the wrong stuff can be painful and inconvenient which is why so many Perth restaurants have created menu options to ensure that gluten-free options are more frequent. Many Perth eateries will feature a few little options for coeliacs, but for the purpose of this list, we have picked eateries that actually offer great gluten-free options.
This way, you or the person youโre with wonโt have to pick from the side salads section and can have a great range of meals to choose from. So, whether youโre a gluten free diner, youโre dating someone who is, or you have friends following this diet change, we have got you covered.
Below, we have set out a great list of the very best gluten-free restaurants and cafes dishing up delicious gluten-free goodness in the Perth area. Letโs take a look, shall we?
Gluten-Free Friendly Restaurants and Cafes
Alfredโs Pizzeria
