Free-from restaurants in Geneva

Bio Fred

Rue de la Boulangerie 3 · Vegan · €⁠€⁠€

100% vegan kitchen since March 2022. The menu and all descriptions confirm every dish is plant-based: no meat, dairy, eggs, or honey appear in any ingredient list. HappyCow lists it as 'Vegan' category and every review confirms it. The owner also confirms the venue is fully vegan. This is a structurally dedicated vegan kitchen — no animal products on the premises.

Fluffy Café

Rue des Rois 9 · Gluten-free · Dairy-free · €⁠€

Fluffy Café operates a 100% dedicated gluten-free kitchen. No gluten-containing ingredient is allowed on the premises. The official menu declares itself '100% sans gluten.' Several community reviews confirm the kitchen is completely gluten-free, with multiple coeliac diners reporting zero reactions. The owner avoids gluten due to a digestive disease, which drives the kitchen's strict protocol. A dedicated fryer and a dedicated kitchen are mentioned in reviews. For coeliac diners, Fluffy Café is as safe as it gets in Geneva.

Tonic Restaurant

Bd Carl-Vogt 30 · Vegetarian · Brunch

The restaurant is 100% vegetarian with no meat on the premises, as confirmed by the venue's own website. All dishes are plant-based or lacto-ovo, making it verifiably safe for vegetarians.

Melrose Kitchen - Bergues

Rue Arnold Winkelried 1 · Brunch · Vegan · €⁠€⁠€

The venue's own website and menu emphasise 'Vegan & Gluten-free' as a core pillar; most items are vegan or can be made vegan (avocado toast without feta, acai bowls, smoothies, matcha lattes with plant milks, cookies). HappyCow reviews confirm 'plenty of vegan options' and that 'every single of their menu items is vegan or vegan capable'. Seven different plant milks are available. There is no Vegan Society Trademark accreditation documented, but the structural commitment (menu designed around vegan) places this at strong trusted.

Restaurant Les Armures

Rue du Soleil-Levant · Swiss · €⁠€

Highly recommended by multiple coeliac diners for its gluten-free fondue experience. The kitchen is not dedicated, but staff are knowledgeable and go to great lengths to avoid cross-contamination. Separate fondue pots are brought for coeliac guests, excellent gluten-free bread is provided (often buckwheat, sourced from a dedicated GF bakery), and boiled potatoes are offered as a dipping alternative. Multiple reviewers report no reactions. One isolated incident of regular bread being brought to the table by mistake was corrected, a good reminder to double-check. Very accommodating for a traditional Swiss shared-kitchen setup.

Masala House - Indian

Rue Chaponnière 5 · Indian

The menu has a dedicated 'Plats Végétariens' section with eight vegetarian dishes, and several other sections (entrées, biryani, sides) contain vegetarian options. The restaurant is routinely praised as having excellent vegetarian and vegan choices by multiple reviewers.

Café d'Éthiopie - Vegan-friendly restaurant & Gluten Free

Rue de Berne 10 · Ethiopian · €⁠€

The entire menu is built around naturally gluten-free teff-flour injera, and every dish is explicitly described as served with gluten-free injera. The venue's own site brands itself 'Gluten Free' and the FindMeGlutenFree listing reports it as 'dedicated gluten-free' with a community snippet calling the food 'naturally 100% gluten free'. No gluten-containing ingredients appear on the menu. However, the kitchen is not independently accredited by a coeliac body, and the menu does not carry per-dish allergen codes (GF, GFO, etc.), the gluten-free claim is a blanket statement. A coeliac diner should still confirm with staff that no wheat flour is used elsewhere (e.g. in the meat option or desserts).

Madame

Bd Carl-Vogt 80 · Brunch

Reported to be a dedicated gluten-free kitchen with a separate gluten-free menu and knowledgeable staff. The owner has a family member with coeliac disease. However, one reviewer noted that non-GF items may also be available, so confirm directly with the venue before visiting.

à table chez Anou

Rue des Pierres-du-Niton 6 · Vegetarian · Indian · €⁠€⁠€

The entire menu is plant-based, meaning every dish is suitable for vegetarians. The Thali dinner on Tuesdays is described as a traditional Indian thali (vegetarian), while the Fusion Gourmet and brunch are fully vegan and therefore vegetarian as well. The venue explicitly markets itself as plant-based cuisine.

Chouchouette

Rue de la Corraterie 12 · · €⁠€

Menu marks GF items with a dedicated icon, and staff are trained and knowledgeable about coeliac needs. The open kitchen lets preparation be observed, though it is a shared kitchen with some non-GF dishes, only one item is not GF, per multiple reports. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged. Coeliac diners report positive experiences, but the venue is not a dedicated GF facility.

Bibim

Genève · Korean · €⁠€

The tofu bibimbap (CHF 22) and side dishes including japchae and baechu kimchi are explicitly listed as vegetarian. No dedicated vegetarian preparation area is noted, though the dishes are naturally plant-based.

Visitaly

Rue de la Corraterie 21 · Italian · €⁠€

Visitaly provides gluten-free pizza, pasta, and dessert. The pizza is cooked in a dedicated oven. The kitchen is shared with regular gluten dishes, and no dedicated fryer is noted. A separate gluten-free menu exists. Coeliac diners have reported positive experiences, but the restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.

White Rabbit - Brunch & Co

Rue du Cendrier 12 · Brunch · €⁠€

White Rabbit is not a dedicated gluten-free kitchen. It offers a separate toaster for gluten-free bread and, according to some reports, a dedicated fryer. Staff knowledge varies. Several coeliac reviewers felt safe and praised the separate toaster, while one found staff clueless. Most brunch items, except pancakes, can be made with gluten-free bread from Schär. Cross-contamination risk exists in the shared kitchen. Coeliac diners should confirm precautions with staff.

Dans le Noir ? Genève

Quai du Mont-Blanc 11 · · €⁠€⁠€

The surprise menu is designed by the chef and can be made vegetarian when requested at booking. The official site states that allergies and dietary needs are taken into account, and the sample menu shows a vegetarian starter (cucumber tartare with stracciatella). However, the kitchen is shared with the Ritz-Carlton hotel, so dedicated vegetarian equipment is not noted. Mark the requirement clearly during reservation.

Okami

Genève · Japanese

The Unanderra (NSW) branch has a separate gluten-free menu, staff trained to flag gluten-free orders with a red flag, and gluten-free soy sauce and tamari available. The kitchen is not dedicated gluten-free, and the venue itself notes a rare chance of cross-contamination. Multiple coeliac diners report positive experiences with knowledgeable staff, though the branch does not hold formal Coeliac Australia accreditation. Those with coeliac disease should confirm protocols directly with the specific branch, as experiences at other locations (e.g. Wilmington, NC) have been inconsistent.

Pasta People

Rue de la Fontaine 13 · Italian · €⁠€

Several pasta dishes on the menu are clearly marked as vegan, among them pesto, napoli, and arrabiata options. Multiple HappyCow reviewers confirm the labelling and report positive experiences. The kitchen is shared with non-vegan ingredients, but the marked menu and staff awareness make it a reliable choice for vegans.

Yvonne & Nala "Asian & Bedouin Flavors"

Rue du Village-Suisse 10 · Middle Eastern · Ramen

Specific dishes are marked as halal (beef meatballs, chicken). The kitchen uses halal meat for those items, but operates from a shared kitchen. No halal certification is noted, but the menu clearly identifies halal options.

Auberge de Savièse

Rue des Pâquis 20 · Swiss · Fondue · €⁠€

Auberge de Savièse offers a clearly labelled vegan cashew fondue for 36 CHF per person, with a minimum of two people. The fondue is made from cashew cheese and served with bread and potatoes. Because the kitchen is shared with dairy fondue, cross-contamination is possible. Several HappyCow reviewers enjoyed the vegan option, though some noted the fondue can be sour or not melt properly. No other vegan desserts or mains are mentioned.

Terra Rossa restaurant pizzeria

Rue des Gares 19 · Italian · €⁠€

Terra Rossa provides a gluten-free menu that includes pizza, pasta, risotto, and desserts. The gluten-free pizza crust arrives vacuum-sealed and is cooked on a dedicated pan in a separate pizza oven. Staff members are generally knowledgeable and will change gloves or clean surfaces when asked. The kitchen is shared with regular gluten-containing dishes, and one detailed review noted potential cross-contact points such as a shared sauce ladle and shared containers. Most coeliac diners report no reaction, though the facility is not a dedicated gluten-free setup.

Little Ethiopia

Rue de Zurich 12/1201 · Vegan · €⁠€

Little Ethiopia lists a dedicated 'VEGAN DISHES' section on its menu with several clearly labelled plant-based options like Shiro (mashed chickpeas), Yemisir Wot (lentils), Ater Alecha (yellow peas), and Atekeit Alecha (carrots, cabbage, potato). A shared kitchen also serves meat and dairy dishes, so cross-contamination is possible. The restaurant's own website and menu evidence the vegan dishes section.

The Foundry Restaurant, Bar and Terrace.

Rue Philippe-Plantamour 25 · Steak

The SwipeIn listing explicitly states that the menu includes a wide selection of vegetarian dishes. The WanderLog reviews also mention vegetarian options. The official PDF menus were not scraped, so no per-dish marking is visible. The kitchen is shared, so vegetarian diners should confirm their dish is prepared without meat-based stocks or cross-contact.

The Barista Lab

Bvd de Saint-Georges 8 · Brunch · €⁠€

The Barista Lab charges an extra CHF 2.50 for gluten-free bread. The menu lists several gluten-free items: a protein bar, a dark chocolate brownie, and vegan banana bread. The kitchen is shared, and the menu does not carry GF symbols. FindMeGlutenFree categorises the venue as 'No GF Menu' but mentions that gluten-free bread, dessert, French toast, and brownies are available. Atly community reviews confirm that gluten-free bread is an option. Cross-contamination risk exists. Coeliac diners should speak directly with staff about their needs.

White Rabbit - Brunch & Co

Genève · Brunch · €⁠€

Gluten-free bread from Schär is available and toasted in a separate toaster. Staff are generally knowledgeable and will flag coeliac needs to the kitchen. The kitchen is shared rather than dedicated. One reviewer reported clueless staff. Most menu items except pancakes can be made gluten-free. Orders are placed via QR code with a 'sans gluten' option.

Mangia Bene

Bd Carl-Vogt 99 · Italian

The menu states that a variety of vegetarian dishes is offered, while the website notes that many vegetarian dishes are proposed. The kitchen is shared with meat and fish dishes, meaning cross-contamination is possible. Staff can guide diners to suitable options.
