It’s a golden era for gluten-free eaters. Whether you have Celiac, an intolerance, or just choose to forgo, there are more gluten-free options in Boston than ever before. Don’t let the gluten-free life stop you from enjoying baguettes, donuts, pasta, pizza, and more.
Please note: not all of these restaurants are Celiac safe, be sure to check in with each restaurant about cross contamination before dining.
