Best gluten-free restaurants in Amsterdam

LUCY'S

Rokin 8 · Cafe · €€

Lucy's Gluten Free bakery is accredited by Coeliac New Zealand, with a purpose-built dedicated gluten-free bakery. The founder's son has severe food allergies, and the business was founded to create safe, allergen-free baked goods. The New Zealand operation is certified by Coeliac New Zealand and all loaves are made in a dedicated facility. The US-based Lucy's cookies brand uses certified gluten-free oats and tests for gluten to ensure no detectable levels.

Restaurant Plancius

Plantage Kerklaan 61 · · €€

Restaurant Plancius is listed as a Coeliac UK Gluten Free Accredited venue on the official Coeliac UK website, meeting the strict Gluten Free Standard. This active accreditation qualifies as Tier S under rule 1a(ii).

Bloem Eten & Drinken

Entrepotdok 36 · Vegan · Vegetarian · €€

Bloem has a 100% gluten-free kitchen, certified by the Nederlandse Coeliakie Vereniging (NCV / Dutch Celiac Association) — the only NCV-certified restaurant in Amsterdam according to the venue itself. No wheat or other gluten-containing grains or flour are used in the kitchen; all products at risk of cross-contamination are certified gluten-free; stock, menu and orders are strictly controlled by NCV. The kitchen is also 100% oat-free. Multiple coeliac reviewers across years report no symptoms. A small minority of historical reviews mention possible reactions, and one reviewer noted an uncertified GF beer being served — but the structural kitchen facts and active accreditation clearly satisfy Tier S. Note: some 'gluten-free' beers on offer may be gluten-reduced rather than certified GF (barley malt listed on can in one account); verify drinks separately.

Croque Madame Gluten Free Food

Sint Annendwarsstraat 24a · Bakery · Cafe · €€

Consistently reported as a 100% dedicated gluten-free kitchen across dozens of independent coeliac reviewers; multiple sources confirm a dedicated gluten-free kitchen space and dedicated toaster. One reviewer notes the owner has a family member with coeliac disease, and another reports staff are 'very strict about not eating any gluten food inside the venue.' No gluten symptoms reported across all symptomatic-coeliac reviews sampled.

Il Vicolo

Taksteeg 3 · Italian · €€

The Galway branch is insider-led: the head chef's wife has coeliac, and the kitchen uses a dedicated pasta pot, dedicated toaster, and dedicated kitchen space. Multiple coeliac diners report no symptoms across several visits. Other branches in Sirmione and Torino also show strong gluten-free awareness (dedicated fryer in Sirmione, AIC membership in Torino), but the Galway insider-led signal is the strongest single structural factor.
