The best gluten-free bakeries in New York.

Every one from my own visits, updated September 2026. 10 places.

My best friend has celiac disease, but that doesn’t stop her insatiable craving for baked goods. When she visited NYC last spring we went on a whirlwind adventure in search of the best gluten free bakeries in NYC. Here’s a roundup of the gems we discovered along the way.

Best gluten-free bakeries in New York, 2026

  1. 7 Grain ArmyBakery · BrooklynThe muffins alone warrant an hour-long subway ride and no one would be able to tell the bread is gluten-free unless told.
  2. By The Way BakeryBakery · Upper West SideThe entire selection of toothsome baked goods is gluten-free, dairy free, certified kosher and so dang delicious.
  3. Cookies from Levain BakeryBakery
  4. Erin McKenna’s BakeryBakery · Lower East SideThe baked goods are on par with their gluten counterparts, and equally satisfying.
  5. Gluten-Free Pie from Petee’s Pie CompanyBakeryPetee’s Pie Company makes the best pie in New York City (fighting words, I know, but I stand behind them).
  6. Modern Bread & BakeryBakery · Upper West SideTurns out I did, and I loved it as much as a traditional bagel.
  7. Posh Pop BakeshopBakery · West VillageThey taste as great as they look.
  8. Senza Gluten Cafe & BakeryBakery · West VillageThere’s no denying that Senza Gluten Cafe is one of the most charming gluten free bakeries in New York City.
  9. Banana pudding from Magnolia BakeryBakery
  10. Elisa’s Love BitesBakery · East VillageThe banana bread deserves a shout-out, as does the chocolate cake, which is satisfyingly moist and gives of an intensely rich flavor.

The seal

If you're on this list, this is yours.

I went, and I said in my own words that it's worth your time. Nobody paid for that and nobody can. The seal says so, and it links back here, so anyone who sees it reads the whole list and how I decide.

Put it on your site, in the window, on the menu. Keep it linked when it's on the web and keep the words on it. That's the whole ask.

The code. Paste it where the seal should sit.
