NutrixeA gluten-free directory you can trust
Eating out when you avoid gluten is too often a gamble. Nutrixe exists to take the gamble away.
The problem
Most lists of “gluten-free” places copy the same information from one site to another without ever checking it. You find places that closed months ago, venues labelled gluten-free that are not, and no distinction between a fully dedicated kitchen and a restaurant that offers a salad. For someone with celiac disease, that confusion is not a detail.
Where Nutrixe comes from
It started with one specific case: a place that was sincerely 100% gluten-free, and that baked with oat flour. Nothing dishonest. But oats are often contaminated with wheat outside a certified supply chain, and some people with celiac disease tolerate them poorly even when certified. A simple “gluten-free ✓” was true for some and false for others.
Hence the stance of the project: never say “it is gluten-free”. Say what we know, where we got it from, and what remains at risk.
What Nutrixe does
The directory currently lists 3,274 places in 16 countries: restaurants, bakeries, pastry shops, ice-cream parlors, grocery stores. One founding rule guides everything else: nothing is published without a human check.
- Every place is checked at the source before it appears.
- Every listing states its real level: a fully dedicated kitchen, a gluten-free menu, or simple options.
- The risks that matter to someone with celiac disease are flagged, along with the date of the check.
- Anything doubtful is not published: better one place fewer than one wrong place.
The mobile app adds a barcode scanner, which reads the ingredient list with the same stance. The details are in our method and in Understanding gluten-free.
Independent and free
Nutrixe charges no establishment to appear in the directory, and a place cannot buy a better ranking. The scanner, the verdict and the map are free and unlimited, with no account, no ads and no tracking. The information is provided as a guide: it helps you choose, without replacing a conversation with the place on the day of your visit or the advice of a health professional.
This directory grows with you. Do you know a place that deserves to be listed? Does a piece of information look out of date? Your help makes the tool better for the whole community.
