Paisley Coffeehouse & Eatery
Accommodating
1020 King St W, Hamilton, ON L8S 1L4, Canada
I have to eat gluten free as I'm celiac & family members kindly picked me up some GF morning glory muffins from Paisley Cafe to try. Wow...best GF muffin I've ever had!!! I will be making the 45 minute drive to see them soon (& I suspect often!) to hopefully get more muffins & try whatever other GF delights they have! I wish I still worked at McMaster University so I could visit them every day!! :-) **Update - visited in person - do be careful if celiac as server used same tongs on regular gluteny treats on the GF treats. I didn't notice the tongs weren't fresh until midway through server packing up my goodies & I ended up having to give away $30 worth of treats as I couldn't eat them. My bad, I should have asked server to use fresh tongs when I ordered.
Nannaa Persian Eatery

The Express Restaurant - Italian Eatery
Accommodating
1034 King St W, Hamilton, ON L8S 1L5, Canada
Every meal at The Express is amazing! They have delicious food, gluten free options, and are absolutely hands down my favourite neighbourhood restaurant! Always friendly, accommodating and will go the extra mile to make sure your experience is top notch. I highly recommend that you get over there for lunch or dinner and get yourself a grilled vegetable salad (with chicken if you eat that!)!
The Burnt Tongue
Gluten-free options
1019 King St W, Hamilton, ON L8S 1L3, Canada
A small mainly take out place with some seating options inside and public tables outside. The food was delicious! Vegan and gluten-free options. Very healthy. Decent portions. The only disappointment is that you can have it only on disposable cartons, no ceramics, but the quality and taste of the food balanced this. I recommend this place and would love to come back myself.
Pizza Nova
Gluten-free options
1016 King St W, Hamilton, ON L8S 1L4, Canada
Warning, if you order dairy free pizza they will automatically give you gluten free crust without asking :( It looked and tasted like cardboard. The customer service to fix the error was even more terrible. Even after sending a photo, still wasn’t corrected. We’re still hungry…save the trouble, eat elsewhere!
