Then read on, because we’ve got some good suggestions.
Note, not everyone makes it known to Google and the other gluten-free apps that they provide gluten free.
If you see a restaurant that you want to try, reach out to them and check if they have anything GF!
And if you find one with GF, check with your wait person what other local spots they recommend!

Look For Gluten Free Restaurant In An App
Have a smartphone? Try the Find Me Gluten Free app. The app is helpful for locating user-contributed gluten-free options! Look for it in the app store.
What I don’t like about this app is that some reviewers sort of bash restaurants for things like a bad wait person or menu choices when it is kind of not relevant to the gluten-free situation…so take the reviews with a grain of salt.
Not Seeing Any Options? Here’s What To Do
Some cities have more gluten free options than others. When you can’t find any good restaurant options, this is what to do.
Sanibel Island has supermarkets and gas stations which are a big help. Find groceries like chips, protein drinks, nuts, lunchmeat, and many of other options. Happy Gluten Free offer a free book with over 1,000 GF foods right on this page. Look for it – it’s free!
Think Ahead
Being spontaneous and gluten free is hard!
Never get in situations where you are starving but not clear where to eat!
That almost always leads to bad decisions!
Included are four of tips:
- Throw some gluten-free protein bars in your purse just in case.
- Spend time to investigate options. Come up with a few Gluten Free Restaurant options.
- If this is your first time to a Gluten Free Restaurant in Sanibel Island , stick with foods that are probably GF – meats, salads, fruits that sort of thing. This is not likely a good time to try gluten free pasta or cake – if you’ve never been to this place before!
- One last thing, visit at off-peak times of day. Eat dinner earlyish or try for a late lunch. Show up at a time you can easily have the full attention of your wait staff and the cooks aren’t slammed.
