Gijón is a favorable case: of 3 verified addresses, all 3 are fully dedicated kitchens, with no wheat flour on the premises, and two carry the label of ACEPA, the Asturian celiac association. A bakery, a pastry workshop and a restaurant: bread, cake and a meal are all covered. And, unusually, traditional Asturian cuisine — cachopo, fabada — is accessible here with no trade-off.

Bread and pastry

Celiastur, calle Uría, is an artisan bakery-patisserie fully dedicated to celiac people, with a range also free of lactose. The house’s site states it plainly: a 100% gluten-free and lactose-free panadería and pastelería, hand-made products. This is the address for daily bread, where no label needs reading.

Dulces Tentaciones & Momentos Salados, calle Lloréu, is a Gijón pastry workshop that is 100% gluten-free, certified by ACEPA, the Asociación de Celíacos de Asturias. Every day you’ll find cakes, pastries, traditional Asturian sweets, and savory items — empanadas, breads. It’s a real neighborhood bakery, not a one-off stand, and three third-party sources agree on its status: Cylex, Find Me Gluten Free and its official accounts.

The table in Cimavilla

El Palace Gijon, plaza del Marqués, occupies an 18th-century building at the heart of Cimavilla. The restaurant is entirely gluten-free, bread included, distinguished by the ACEPA label — held for two years — and ranked among Spain’s best gluten-free tables. The menu highlights cachopo and Asturian fabada, which is precisely the point: cachopo is normally breaded with wheat crumbs, and it’s the dish a celiac never orders in Asturias. Five sources confirm this, including ElEspañol, Celicidad, disfrutandosingluten.es, asociaciondeceliacos.org and the official site.

Our tips on site

Say “Soy celíaco” or “Soy celíaca” (I am celiac), rather than “sin gluten”: this is the word that triggers real precautions, including outside these three addresses.
Look for the ACEPA logo in the window. ACEPA is the Asturian celiac association; at the national level, it’s FACE, the Spanish federation of celiacs, that is the reference.
The historic center holds the restaurant, not the bakery: El Palace is on plaza del Marqués, in Cimavilla, while Celiastur is on calle Uría and Dulces Tentaciones on calle Lloréu. Plan a trip for each.

Frequently asked questions

Can you eat gluten-free in Gijón with celiac disease?

Yes, and under good conditions: Nutrixe has verified 3 addresses in Gijón, and all 3 are fully dedicated kitchens, with no wheat flour on the premises. A bakery, a pastry workshop and a restaurant. Two of them carry the label of ACEPA, the Asturian celiac association. No cross-contamination to weigh on this list.

Can you get gluten-free cachopo in Gijón?

Yes, at El Palace Gijon, plaza del Marqués, in an 18th-century building at the heart of Cimavilla. The restaurant is entirely gluten-free, bread included, and puts cachopo and Asturian fabada center stage. It held the ACEPA label for two years and ranks among Spain's best gluten-free tables. Cachopo is normally breaded with wheat breadcrumbs: here, it isn't.

How do you say you have celiac disease in Spanish?

Say "Soy celíaco" or "Soy celíaca" (I am celiac). This is the word that triggers real kitchen precautions, far more than "sin gluten," often understood as a simple preference. You can add "¿La cocina es cien por cien sin gluten?" (Is the kitchen one hundred percent gluten-free?) to find out whether the establishment is truly dedicated.

What does the ACEPA label mean on a Gijón address?

ACEPA is the Asociación de Celíacos de Asturias, the regional celiac association. Two of Gijón's 3 verified addresses claim it: the pastry workshop Dulces Tentaciones & Momentos Salados and the restaurant El Palace Gijon. It's a useful local marker to look for once you step outside this list.
