Sit Down Meals
For people with gluten sensitivities like me, you're in luck. Rome has no shortage of places where gluten-free diners can enjoy a proper meal without feeling limited.
It is one of the most popular gluten-free restaurants in Rome! Their huge gluten-free menu stands out for its textures. Anyone who has tried to fry GF dough knows the struggle, but their gluten-free supplì is completely crisp and intact.

Voglia di Pizza served what felt like the best pizza we had in Rome, and quite possibly the best gluten-free pizza I have ever tasted.
Voglia di Pizza
I appreciate how well their pasta holds its al dente structure. It doesn't have that mushy or grainy quality that many gluten-free pastas have.
Mercato Hostaria Roma
The restaurant is located downstairs in a basement, which gives it a cozy, underground cavern feel with brick arches and warm lighting. Their food leans more into classic Roman flavors, which is a big part of the appeal.
La Soffitta Renovatio
Finding a quiet, safe place to eat right next to one of the world’s most famous monuments usually feels impossible, but Pantha Rei is the exception.

Bakeries and Pastry Stops
From flaky pastries and fresh bread to pizza by the slice and cookies for later, the city has a great selection of gluten free bakery stops that make snacking and breakfast feel just as exciting as the bigger meals.
This bakery in Rome is a lovely stop for brunch, baked goods, or simply a really good coffee.
Barnum Roma
If you want to walk into a bakery where you can eat literally everything in sight without worrying about cross-contamination, this place is your sanctuary.
New Food Gluten Free - Dedicated Gluten-Free Bakery in Rome
It's a local favorite for breakfast, snacks, and pizza al taglio.
Le Altre Farine Del Mulino - Dedicated Gluten-Free Bakery in Rome
Pandali works especially well as a breakfast, light lunch, or mid-sightseeing stop when you want something reliable in the historic center.

We tried their chocolate cake and a layered ricotta and cherry cake. Both were excellent, but the ricotta and cherry cake easily stole the show.
Roscioli Caffè Pasticceria
Gelato
One of the best things about finding gluten-free dessert spots in the city is that you still get to fully enjoy gelato in Rome, which is part of the experience, no matter the season.
This charming small shop is dedicated exclusively to gluten-free treats, so even the crispy cones and wafers are safe.
Gelateria Fiocco Di Neve - Rome Restaurants
This was the absolute best gelato in Rome that we tried and I highly recommend this place!
Fatamorgana Chiavari
The shop offers around 150 flavors, one of the widest selections in Rome. That alone makes it a fun place to visit!
