Description

If you live gluten-free, you know the drill. Eating out takes research, travel takes a lot of planning, and “gluten-free” is often anything but. The Gluten Dude app changes that — helping you find places you can trust, plan easier trips, and save money while you’re at it. It’s not another crowdsourced directory. It’s built by someone who lives this life and understands what’s at stake. -- WHAT MAKES GLUTEN DUDE DIFFERENT -- • Every restaurant is recommended AND researched for cross-contamination practices, so you can finally relax and enjoy meals out with friends and family. • Get instant notifications when new restaurants are added in your area, so you never miss a place worth checking out. • Use customizable filters to match your comfort level — from 100% gluten-free spots to Dude-Vetted and community-recommended restaurants. • Plan trips the easy way. Whether you’re driving or flying, the Gluten-Free Trip Planner shows vetted restaurants and airport dining options along your route. • Save money with Deals & Steals — exclusive coupons, brand discounts, and online savings on over 1,000 gluten-free products. • Stay informed with the Daily Digest — gluten-free tips, news, recipes, and more, updated every day. • Explore gluten-free options around the world, from local favorites to international destinations, all in one place. -- WHY PEOPLE TRUST GLUTEN DUDE -- • Built by someone who actually lives the gluten-free life, not a corporation chasing downloads. • Every restaurant earns its place. No shortcuts. No gimmicks. • No fake “safe” claims or careless listings. Just honesty. • Constantly updated with new restaurants, new features, and new ways to make gluten-free living easier. Download the Gluten Dude app and take the guesswork out of gluten-free living. Eat well. Travel smart. Save money. Your gluten-free journey starts here. -- WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING -- "Your approach is far superior to other apps in terms of safety. Your app is desperately needed." - Sandy "Thank you for being an instrumental part of the celiac community. I trust your app so much more than any other." – Erica "Nothing else I’ve seen has the breadth of up-to-date, peace-of-mind info on where to safely go." – GF Seeker "I feel much more confident & safer using your app vs. any other. How diligent you are is what separates you from the rest." – Laura "I won’t use any other app besides yours - because SAFETY FIRST." - Kelly ABOUT ME I'm Scott, aka Gluten Dude. I was diagnosed with celiac in 2007 and started blogging in 2011 to help others navigate the same overwhelming path. For over 15 years, I’ve been advocating for this community, calling out the BS, raising awareness, and pushing for better support. Five years ago, I launched this app to take that mission even further, giving you tools to travel, dine, and live gluten-free with more confidence and less stress. Now I've rebuilt it to serve the gluten-free community even better. Kind words from the Gluten-Free Community... "Thank you for your answers, wisdom, support and humor. I could not live this life without you." - Susan "Your knowledge and honesty is like a life raft in an unknown and terrifying ocean." - Jess "Keep rockin’ Gluten Dude. You are changing the world for us." - Laura "I appreciate all you try to do for all of us in the celiac community. Your ongoing and relentless support is such a gift. Thank YOU." - Hillary

    I’ve used the app for a couple of years. The update came just right on time as we are on vacation. Well Done!
  • Terrific App & Resource

    I love this app and use it wherever I travel, especially in Europe. Each of the suggestions are most helpful, especially when others have submitted a review too. That helps all of us in the community. I also submit new places and updates (i.e. one local cafe changed their menu and was no longer dedicated GF) and letting the GlutenDude Team know, they did their own investigation and addt’l info was added for that cafe the next day. While you can use other apps to compliment this one; but I encourage you to take a trip and test this out using the trial and I’m sure you’ll agree it’s worth it!! Thanks GDude & Team for keeping it real!

  • A Must-Have for Celiac, Gluten Sensitivity, or Any Gluten-Restricted Autoimmune Conditions

    have celiac disease and this app is an absolute must-have. As anyone with celiac, gluten sensitivity, or other autoimmune issues that require strict gluten limits knows, eating out can be incredibly stressful. Even when a restaurant claims to have a gluten-free menu, you can never be sure their protocols are actually safe. This app removes that uncertainty. Every restaurant listed has been thoroughly vetted, so I can trust that the kitchen understands cross-contamination and proper gluten-free preparation. It has taken so much stress off my plate by eliminating hours of researching and second-guessing whether I can safely eat somewhere. If you need to avoid gluten for any medical reason, this app is a true game changer.

    I am very happy to use this app and have used it locally and it was quite helpful when traveling both at the airport and when I was in another country. Thanks for all the hard work dude!
  • Big update..big flop

    I was hoping the update would address some of the issues I’ve had with the app, but unfortunately that isn’t the case. There is still a major lack of transparency around vetting, which is the main reason I would use the app. There are also many places listed as “vetted” that are definitely not very safe. I’m truly just not sure what the point of the app is.
  • Good concept but not worth the money

    I thought there would be a lot more information in the app given the price. I have found more information by joining local gluten free groups on Facebook and that’s free. There are “vetted” restaurants that have nothing marked gluten free on the menu. And the vetting process seems to be just Google reviews.
  • Pricey for what you get

    I wish I hadn’t spent the money. I live in a relative gluten free desert. I bought this hopes it would help me find safer places to eat. Apparently there are few. If I lived in a better population this would be great. I just don’t think this app is any different than google. They both show the same restaurants. I would really like my money back.
  • Fantastic & Super helpful

    This is a great app for any one gluten free. It helps when I am traveling and unfamiliar. And when a new place is vetted near home I get notifications.
  • Genuinely life changing

    This app is genuinely life changing, and that is not an exaggeration. It has made a world of a difference when traveling. I used to be very anxious when I had to travel for work because, as a person with celiac, I always worried about whether I’d be able to eat anywhere. Now, because of this app, I really look forward to it because of the chance to try new restaurants. On my last work trip, I showed the app to 2 gluten free coworkers who bought the app on the spot after glancing at it on my phone and hearing me describe how life changing it’s been. This app is clearly a labor of love for the dude who created it, and it has made me love life, food, and traveling in a whole new way.
