Calgary is home to a number of restaurants offering gluten-free menus.
Celiac disease is a genetic disorder that causes a severe intolerance to gluten. Individuals suffering from this disease must adhere to a strict gluten-free diet. Since many food products contain gluten, finding a restaurant that offers a gluten-free menu isn't always easy. If you are dining out in Calgary, however, a number of eating establishments with gluten-free menu options are available.
The Coup
This popular upscale vegetarian restaurant and lounge offers fine organic dishes made fresh daily. The Coup only buys produce from local organic farmers and even grows some of its own vegetables in the summer months. The Coup offers gluten-free and vegan-friendly menu options and outdoor dining.
