Gluten-Free and Celiac Guide To Revelstoke, BC
Introduction
Gluten-Free & Celiac Guide to Revelstoke, British Columbia. Created by a Canadian with celiac who lived in Revelstoke. See below my recommendations and tips!
We found quite a few restaurants in this small town have gluten-free labelling on their menus or accommodations. Staff are very aware of the disease and can accommodate easily, just ask!
Full Disclosure: Of course, you can go to any restaurant and ask for gluten-free options, but they may not be able to accommodate cross-contamination.
What is Celiac Disease?
Celiac Disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by ingesting gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. When individuals with Celiac Disease consume gluten, their immune system responds by attacking the lining of the small intestine, leading to inflammation and damage. As a result, vital nutrients cannot be properly absorbed, leading to various health complications. Celiac Disease is now recognized as one of the most common autoimmune disorders globally.
I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease when I was just 2 years old. It is a constant struggle to find restaurants I can eat at. I’ve found that many restaurants are giving gluten-friendly options but not gluten-free ones. During my travels, I have to research before I eat anywhere.
While staying in Revelstoke I found many gluten-free restaurants and a few celiac-friendly. Read this blog for my recommendations!

Gluten-Free Guide Explained - Symbols vs Ask The Waiter
Ask The Waiter! Many restaurants don’t have any symbols or gluten-free menus. But you can ask the waiter what can be made gluten-free. In doing this I have had some amazing accommodations.
Gluten-Free Symbols! Symbols on their menu indicating allergens. You should still ask about cross-contamination.
Best Celiac and Gluten-Free Businesses In Revelstoke, BC
Terravita Kitchen - Dedicated Gluten-Free
Ploughman’s Sandwich
For the best celiac experience, Terravita’s Kitchen is #1. Their products are from the Terra Firma Farm! This is my absolute favourite place to eat in Revelstoke. With a dedicated menu, anything can be made gluten-free, just ask for that option and you are set. Along with their in-house menu, they also have sweets and bake their bread to order.
Sincero Cafe - Symbols
Spicy Lemongrass Beek Pho
Words can’t express how much I love their food. The only Vietnamese restaurant that has gluten-free options. The owner is absolutely lovely and the portions are perfect! A local business close to the heart of downtown, with outdoor seating. The rich mouth-watering food will make you go back time after time. This one should be on your list when you're in Revelstoke.

For an all-around great culinary experience, add this to your bucket list!
The Taco Club - Ask The Waiter
Beef Birria, Annatto Chicken, and Wild Cod Tacos
The only place to get gluten-free tacos is, of course, the Taco Club. This always-bustling restaurant has the best taco combinations! With multiple options, make sure to ask which tacos can be made gluten-free. Along with their food comes tasty margaritas and cocktails. In the centre of downtown, it’s close to live music in the summer, and warm bars in the winter.

One of two sushi restaurants in Revelstoke with gluten-free symbols on the menu. Lots of options and great prices! Named after one of the mountain ranges surrounding Revelstoke, Frisby Ridge!
Bordersology Recommended Day Trips/Excursions
The Nest - Ask The Waiter
The Nest, a restaurant with a view. An upscale restaurant at Eagle Pass Lodge, away from the hustle and bustle of the town. This is a quiet romantic night out. The seasonal menu is always enticing and their cocktails never fail to impress. A warm and inviting staff provide a classy dinner service. We suggest making a reservation.
Seoul Street - Symbols
A Korean-style pub with multiple gluten-free options! So many flavours and interesting dishes I doubt you have had before. A local favourite that also has events on occasion.
Paramjit’s Kitchen - Symbols
The most tempting food fusion is at Paramajit’s Kitchen. This is an Indian and German fusion restaurant. The only thing is the Indian dishes are the only gluten-free options. Their Pakora’s are my favourite!
WING N IT - Ask The Waiter
The only place to get gluten-free wings is at Wingin’ It. This restaurant is attached to a bar and a hotel. Their bar has live music and pool tables. Just ask the waiter for the gluten-free wings and your set, unfortunately, this is the only thing on the menu we can eat.
The Village Idiot - symbols
A local favourite is The Village Idiot Bar and Grill. The pizza here is the best in town! With more than just pizza on their menu that’s gluten-free, this is a must-try in town! Walk in and see the winter-themed bar! I would suggest making reservations most nights, it gets very busy.

Limited gluten-free options, but they do have symbols. A very busy bar with an outdoor patio and many events!

These 3 restaurants are all located and owned by the Revelstoke Mountain Resort.
Rockford Grill - Symbols:
There is a gluten-free menu here but watch out for cross-contamination, fried foods are cooked in the same fryer as breaded food.
Mackenzie Common Tavern & Food Truck:
The menu here changes, ask the waiter and there are usually a few things gluten-free. Temporarily closed throughout the year during low seasons.
Mackenzie Outpost - Ask the waiter:
This one is located at the top of the second gondola. Everyone loves the vibes here! No gluten-free buns but even in a lettuce wrap it’s still the best burger in town. Temporarily closed throughout the year during low seasons.
Menu for all three
TAMARIBA KITCHEN - Symbols
This food truck has a good few options for gluten-free items. Their menu usually consists of poke bowls and noodle dishes. Check out their Facebook or Instagram for updates related to location.

Main Street Cafe - Ask The Waiter
Smokey Beef Hash Skillet
A very popular cafe is Main Street Cafe. Their menu is mouth-watering, with knowledgeable staff for accommodating gluten-free.

A menu with a good amount of options! Located further from the town centre and also attached to its own liquor store. The gluten-free buns are mediocre.
