Oakland has 3 verified addresses, and all 3 are fully dedicated kitchens: no wheat flour on the premises, no question to ask. They divide the day well: a fast-casual for lunch, a bakery for bread, and a Colombian table cited by the Michelin Guide for dinner. Two are in the same area.

The two Temescal addresses

Kitava, 375 40th Street, is a 100% gluten-free fast-casual — also free of dairy, soy, peanuts, refined sugar and seed oils. Bowls and vegetable salads, proteins and healthy fats, in a paleo, keto or whole30 spirit, open every day. It is a California chain established since 2017; the dedicated status is confirmed by the official website, a Find Me Gluten Free listing, Yelp and Uber Eats. For anyone juggling several exclusions, it is the simplest address in the city.

Mariposa Baking Company, 5427 Telegraph Avenue, is the brand’s original bakery: everything is made in a workshop that has been 100% gluten-free since 2004 — croissants, bagels, viennoiseries, sweet breads, with vegan, egg-free and dairy-free options. Twenty years of a dedicated kitchen is rare. Find Me Gluten Free, the National Celiac Association and the official website confirm the status; the address and hours have been cross-checked on Yelp and DoorDash.

The evening table

Parche, 2295 Broadway, reinvents Colombian cuisine in a fully gluten-free kitchen: arepas, empanadas, smashed plantains, inventive ceviches. The address is recognized by the Michelin Guide — it is the fine-dining table on this list. Find Me Gluten Free classifies it as dedicated, the official website speaks of a “fully gluten-free kitchen,” and the East Bay gluten-free guide published by Oaklandside and Berkeleyside in March 2025 cites it.

Our tips on site

  • Say “I have celiac disease,” not “gluten free”: in the United States, the latter is very often understood as a dietary preference. At these three addresses, the question doesn’t even arise.
  • Do Temescal in one trip. Kitava and Mariposa Baking Company share zip code 94609: it is the only pair you can cover in the same outing.
  • Save Parche for the evening, and the bakery for bread to go — that’s what’s missed most while traveling.
  • In the United States, the reference associations are the Gluten Intolerance Group and Beyond Celiac. For the rest of the country, our guide to gluten-free travel in the USA.
