Gluten Free Girona, Spain: Restaurants, Shops and Tapas, Girona, Spain

As you know by now, my carefree foodie-traveling lifestyle is slightly hampered by the fact I am gluten free. Never fear in Girona, though: I ate ’til my heart’s content! Of course, this came with the help of my Girona-resident friends Alexia and Angela, who were perfect tour guides, translators, and gluten free Girona connoisseurs.

I also have to thank them for dealing with my gluten free complications – it can be difficult to travel with an allergy or intolerance, both for your own safety but also for the people who you travel with. They may not know all the details of your condition and diet, and will have to go out of their way for you in ways they obviously wouldn’t if they were just eating on their own! So a big thanks to my lovely travel buddies for their graciousness. I hope their guidance plus my own experience can give y’all a good guide to the ins and outs of gluten free Girona!

L’exquisit is an adorable little cafe overlooking the River Onyar, the perfect place for a gluten free Girona brunch! They carry gluten free bread, so I had traditional Catalan sandwiches with jamon, tomatoes and cheese each morning (yes, sandwiches for breakfast is a thing). They also offer gluten free cookies! The coffee is also amazing and we ended up here almost every morning of our trip! ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
