The Best Gluten-Free Bakeries in Dallas (2026)

A gluten-free bakery is only safe for a celiac if the whole place is gluten-free, and most bakeries that advertise gluten-free options bake with wheat in the same room. This is the short, hard list: bakeries in and around Dallas where the entire kitchen is gluten-free, with no wheat flour on the premises, so you can point at the case and order anything. We check each one against how the bakery actually runs, using its own allergen pages and the National Celiac Association, not star ratings. A couple sit out in Frisco and Grapevine, and we say so.

Checked by Sansglu

Every bakery here runs a fully dedicated gluten-free kitchen with no wheat flour on site. We confirm that from each bakery's own menus and allergen statements plus the National Celiac Association directory, not from user votes. Where a spot is a drive out to the suburbs, we flag it. The trap in Dallas is the 100%-vegan bakery that still bakes with wheat, so we exclude those. Last checked August 2026. Read how Sansglu evaluates restaurant safety signals.

Bakeries & sweets

Unrefined Bakery, Preston Center Safety 951

1. Unrefined Bakery

6055 Sherry Ln · Preston Center
100% gluten-free kitchen · separate fryer

Order a whole chocolate-ganache drip cake for the occasion you thought you had to skip, then grab cookies, cupcakes, and a loaf of sandwich bread for the week. Everything is scratch-made.

Unrefined is a 100% gluten-free and 100% soy-free facility with no wheat flour on site, so a celiac can order anything in the case. There are six locations around the metroplex, including Greenville Avenue, Frisco, Richardson, and Fort Worth, if Preston Center is out of your way.

JOY Macarons, Bishop Arts Safety 952

2. JOY Macarons

839 W Davis St · Bishop Arts
100% gluten-free kitchen · separate fryer

The macaron ice cream sandwich is the move, a soft macaron shell around real ice cream. Build a box of flavors like lavender-honey, pistachio, and passion fruit while you are at it.

Everything at JOY is gluten-free, down to the waffle cones, so it is one of the few ice cream stops a celiac can order across without asking. This is the Bishop Arts shop in Oak Cliff, walkable from the rest of the district.

Sweet Gilly's Specialty Bakeshop, Frisco Safety 903

3. Sweet Gilly's Specialty Bakeshop

3266 Parkwood Blvd · Frisco
100% gluten-free kitchen · separate fryer

The hand-painted celebration cakes are the showpiece, but the everyday case of cupcakes, cookies, and pastries is where you will actually load up. Pair it with a coffee.

Sweet Gilly's is 100% gluten-free, dairy-free, and egg-free, and fully vegan, so it clears a stack of allergies at once. It is up in Frisco, a drive north of Dallas, and worth it for a dedicated bakery that also does custom cakes.

Pinch of Salt Pastries, Grapevine Safety 954

4. Pinch of Salt Pastries

1900 S Main St · Grapevine

Work through the pastry case: croissants, danishes, and seasonal bakes a celiac almost never gets to try, plus a coffee. The lamination is the whole point here.

Pinch of Salt is a 100% gluten-free and allergy-friendly bakery, kitchen included, so the pastries are celiac-safe start to finish. The main shop is in Grapevine, with a second location in the Oak Lawn area of Dallas.

Gluten-free in Dallas, answered

Are there any 100% gluten-free bakeries in Dallas?

Yes. Dallas and its suburbs have several fully dedicated gluten-free bakeries, including Unrefined Bakery (a 100% gluten-free and soy-free facility with multiple metroplex locations), JOY Macarons in Bishop Arts, Sweet Gilly's in Frisco, and Pinch of Salt Pastries in Grapevine. In every one the entire kitchen is gluten-free.

Is there a dedicated gluten-free bakery in Dallas or Fort Worth?

Yes. Unrefined Bakery runs six dedicated gluten-free locations around DFW, including Preston Center and Greenville Avenue in Dallas and a Fort Worth shop on Hulen Street. Everything is baked in a facility with no wheat flour on site.

Where can celiacs get gluten-free cake in Dallas?

Unrefined Bakery makes whole gluten-free cakes, from ganache drip cakes to layer cakes, in a dedicated facility, and Sweet Gilly's in Frisco does hand-painted custom celebration cakes that are also vegan, dairy-free, and egg-free. Both are safe for celiacs because the whole kitchen is gluten-free.

Are JOY Macarons gluten-free?

Yes. Everything at JOY Macarons is gluten-free, including the waffle cones for their macaron ice cream, and it is listed as a dedicated gluten-free bakery. The Bishop Arts location in Oak Cliff is on this list.

What is the difference between gluten-free-friendly and dedicated gluten-free?

A gluten-free-friendly bakery offers gluten-free items but still bakes with wheat in the same kitchen, which leaves a cross-contact risk. A dedicated gluten-free bakery has no wheat flour on the premises at all. Every bakery on this list is dedicated. The vegan bakeries that still bake with wheat, like the ones below, do not qualify.

How should celiac diners use this Dallas bakery list?

Each bakery runs a fully gluten-free kitchen, which is the standard that matters most for celiacs, and we check it against each bakery's own allergen statements rather than reviews. Where a spot is a drive out to Frisco or Grapevine, we flag it so you can plan the trip.

Checked, not on the list
  • Reverie Bakeshop: A 100% vegan bakery in Richardson, but it handles large amounts of wheat flour for its non-gluten-free items on shared equipment and states it does not recommend its products for people with celiac disease. Vegan is not the same as gluten-free.
  • Sugar & Sage Bakery: A University Park patisserie whose menu centers on wheat pastries like kouign amann and danishes, with gluten-free items offered alongside in a shared kitchen. Not dedicated.
  • Sift + Pour: A Victory Park bakery and coffee shop where many items are gluten-free, but it also makes wheat crepes and macarons and is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
  • Hannah's Gluten Free Bakery: The dedicated gluten-free bakery at the Dallas Farmers Market has closed.
  • Local Oven: A genuinely dedicated 100% gluten-free bakery in Farmers Branch, but it is a wholesale and manufacturing operation that supplies restaurants and grocers, not a walk-in shop to visit.
