Turin is the surprise of our Italian map: the Piedmontese capital lines up 14 verified addresses, 10 of them entirely dedicated — with a pronounced taste for world cuisine. A Mexican restaurant certified since 2012, an Italian-Asian-Peruvian fusion bistro, a gelateria built on Slow Food ingredients: this is far from the industrial-city cliché. All of it set within the Italian framework so favourable to coeliacs that we described in our guide to gluten-free Italy.
What the city adds up to
A trip around the world without leaving Piedmont
This is Turin’s signature: here, gluten-free speaks every language. Alma Latina serves tacos, quesadillas and empanadas on a menu that’s entirely gluten-free and lactose-free, recognised by the Associazione Italiana Celiachia since 2012 — a rare pedigree. El Crab Bistrot (4.8★) dares an Italian-Asian-Peruvian fusion, ramen and octopus included, with AIC certification obtained in 2025. On the Brazilian side, Ritual advertises an entirely gluten-free menu and displays the AIC logo, but its detailed menu reveals variants made with regular bread: overwhelmingly gluten-free, but not strictly dedicated. The same caution applies to ris8guru, a risotto fast-food spot designed to appeal to coeliacs and vegans alike, without formal confirmation of being 100% dedicated.
Pizza, crêpes and Piedmontese cooking, safely
Near Porta Nuova, Locanda Del Pentegallo is the great classic of the genre: more than 80 pizzas, burgers, crêpes, risottos and homemade desserts, all 100% gluten-free, AIC-certified and washed down with gluten-free beers — the ideal address for a table mixing coeliac and non-coeliac diners. On Piazza Tancredi Galimberti, Cammafà ZERO — not to be confused with the classic Cammafà pizzeria — is entirely dedicated, with a light crust universally praised. And to taste the Langhe, Turinlanga (4.8★), an AIC-certified artisan delicatessen, prepares takeaway tagliatelle and vegan agnolotti, free of both gluten and lactose.
Signature gelato and dedicated bakeries
The story of Papalele is worth the detour: Emanuele Monero, heir to a Turin family pastry shop, started from scratch to create an AIC-certified gelateria where ice creams, cones, cakes and semifreddi are all gluten-free — made with Slow Food ingredients such as San Gavino saffron or Noto almonds. The city’s other ice cream shop, Grom, offers only a handful of identified gluten-free products within an otherwise standard menu: not a dedicated address.
On the bakery side, three fully dedicated workshops share the city between them. Freedom Lounge Bakery (4.7★) has been treating the city centre since it opened in 2019, with naturally gluten-free flour blends — its speciality: cannoli filled to order. Reborneat champions its “gluten-free revolution” with certified flours, across a full range from sweet to savoury. And the Chicchisani workshop designs its pastries with every food intolerance in mind, while never straying from gluten-free.
Grocery shopping: two specialist stores
Punto G (4.8★) is a genuine deli-grocery that’s entirely gluten-free, with a fresh pasta workshop visible to all, recognised by the AIC and accessible through Italy’s health exemption scheme (ASL). Zeromille (4.9★) specialises in coeliac needs but shares its shelves with other diets: since not every item is guaranteed gluten-free, check each label.
Our tips for visiting
- The phrase to know: “Sono celiaco / celiaca” — I am coeliac. Anywhere in Italy, it’s enough to trigger the right reflexes in the kitchen.
- The AIC logo as your compass: Turin has a remarkable density of addresses certified by the Italian association — Alma Latina, Locanda Del Pentegallo, Papalele, Punto G, El Crab, Turinlanga…
- The city centre has most of it: between Porta Nuova and the central squares, you can walk from a dedicated pizzeria to a specialist grocery store.
- At a grocery store that isn’t fully dedicated, such as Zeromille, keep the habit of reading the label: not every “intolerance-friendly” product is guaranteed gluten-free.
