Gluten free Fika in Gothenburg

Let´s have a Gluten Free Fika in Gothenburg! I am living here since a year now as a celiac and share the cafés where I had good gluten-free experiences with so far. Fika is the daily practised Swedish tradition of having a cup of coffee and something sweet to eat, calm down for a moment and chat with family, friends or colleagues. Usually, in Sweden you can ask for a gluten-free alternative and it is common that they have at least f.ex. a brownie to offer. I am thankful for the general offer of alternatives, yet I prefer to visit places where I can eat more than the obligatory brownie to my Swedish Fika ;-). Therefore, I recommend only the locations where I was satisfied with the gluten-free possibilities! Furthermore, I will not link cafés in the charming old town district of Haga. There are several, but I personally found them very touristy and therefore prefer to walk through it but then visit other places for a fika. NOTE! In Sweden, oat milk is the usual dairy milk alternative. Make sure to ask for the right milk of your choice in case. And now enjoy :-)

Ahlströms konditori is an angled, cozy café with a lot of seats, in walking distance from Brunnsparken. They have a large selection in general but also gluten-free cakes, cookies and sandwiches. If you visit in February, you have to try the gluten-free "Semla", a traditional pastry filled with rich cream.

Göteborgs glutenfria bageri

@The_Independent_Celiac

Visit this little completely gluten-free bakery in Gothenburg! In addition to other seasonal baked goods, you can try a fresh baked Swedish Kanelbulle (cinnamon bun). I had a pleasant meeting with other celiacs from Gothenburg here, and together we enjoyed croissants, pain au chocolat and more. Just make sure to check if it is open the day you would like to visit due to limited opening hours.

Lemon Garden

Lemon Garden is a great place for a sweet brunch. Among others, you can get gluten-free bowls, pancakes and smoothies. I tried the gluten-free pancake roll and it looked and tasted very good. It looks very stylish inside, and outside you have a nice view over the canal.

On a sunny summer day in Gothenburg, I recommend you to visit the Gelateria. They have a lot of delicious ice cream flavours which I love to try! I like that they do not taste artificial but very natural.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Kristina Savic

Hi! I am a lifelong celiac who loves to travel and explore the world. I thrive at planning travel itineraries but understand that it takes a lot of time to create the best route for oneself. Being a celiac (who also is a vegetarian) can be stressful while traveling as it requires even more research, preparation and still there can be negative surprises on the journey. But I never let the joy of travelling be taken away from me. Therefore, my partner and I founded The Independent Celiac, with the purpose to help the celiac community to travel with ease! Here, as an addition to The Independent Celiac and my own website kristinasavic.com, I share my gluten-free maps and my self-toured itineraries with you. I grew up in Munich (Germany), now live in Gothenburg and am currently exploring Sweden. Follow us on Instagram or Facebook to be a part of our journey and have a great trip! Kristina
