Gluten-Free & Coeliac-Friendly Places to Eat in Milan, Italy 🇮🇹

Planning a trip to Milan and wondering where to find safe, delicious gluten-free food as a coeliac? I spent a long weekend exploring Milan and made it my mission to find coeliac-safe eats around the city. From gluten-free pizza and pasta to fully dedicated bakeries, here are my top recommendations for gluten-free dining in Milan.

🏨 Where I Stayed: Central & Convenient

I stayed at Le Texture Guesthouse, located just a 5-minute walk from the iconic Duomo di Milano. It's not a traditional hotel but a stylish guesthouse inside a residential building with five ensuite bedrooms perfect for a short stay and a fantastic central location.

🍕 Gluten-Free Pizza & Pasta in Milan

Italy is famous for its pizza and pasta and luckily, you don’t have to miss out if you're coeliac. Here are some of the best places for gluten-free Italian food in Milan:

Pizzeria Positano

✅ Pizzeria Positano Milano (Carrobbio area)

One of my top picks! This spot is not far from the Duomo and offers gluten-free pizza options. It gets busy fast, so go early. We got takeaway it was ready in under 5 minutes!

✅ Ò Peperino Milano

Although I didn’t personally try it, Ò Peperino is a popular option with great reviews from the gluten-free community for their pizza and pasta.

✅ Ristorante Pizzeria Dogana

Another highly rated option for gluten-free pizza and pasta, listed on the Find Me Gluten Free app. Worth considering!
