Welcome to the area! There's a free app that's so helpful in finding places to eat with gluten free options - it's called Find Me GF. Some of my favorite local places (North Raleigh & Wake Forest) are Farm Table, Stewart's Bistro, Burger 21, & Fresh Levant.
Bobby R. replied:

Welcome!! The Lemon Tree Cafe is a tucked away little place in downtown Wake Forest. Most people do take out with them because seating is very limited. Open mainly for lunch but you can also pre-order many of their menu items. So fresh and yummy sure to have gluten free options. https://www.facebook.com/thelemontreewf/

If you like to cook, you can beat the prices for Gluten-Free mixes and flours at The Grain Mill in downtown WF. They have bread mix, pizza mix, brownie mix, gluten free-oats and a lot of other gluten-free items in their bulk bins. Buy it by the pound and save $$$.

Wendy J. replied:
I can't think of the name of it, but there's a good sandwich place in Youngsville that serves gluten free. They have a family member with celiac, so they are careful. Als BBQ on 401 also serves gluten free offerings...they also have a family member with celiac.
Michael H. replied:
JPs pastry and you can find their products all over triangle in restaurants. Sassool is one. https://www.facebook.com/jpspastry/ Love sweet traditions by Leanne, but not certified or dedicated GF. Also imagine that GF products can be found in GF restaurants all over triangle such as primal foods.
Barbara W. replied:
Whole Foods. They have their own bakery products (frozen). Best restaurant is Primal Food and Spirits in Durham 100% GF. There are a few local bakers....The Celiac Cakery is great. Depends really whether you are worried about cross contamination. Sweet Traditions will be honest and tell you they bake in same area as non GF items.

Fresh Levant at Lafayette Village is a gluten free restaurant. They have a bakery case, too. They do donuts on Wednesdays and Sundays I believe. I have heard they are fantastic!

Kroger has a decent GF selection that is much cheaper than Whole Foods. Trader Joes has some affordable GF products as well.
