Obleas To Go - Leeds Kirkgate Market

If you love discovering unique sweet treats on your travels, Obleas To Go is a fantastic addition to the gluten‑free scene in Leeds. Known for Colombian street‑food classics, it offers a range of naturally gluten‑free savoury items, making it a brilliant option to include on your personal food map of the city.

While not a fully dedicated gluten‑free kitchen, Obleas To Go provides several dishes that are naturally gluten-free, such as:

• Beef or chicken empanadas with a naturally gluten‑free corn shell
• Cheese arepas, made entirely from corn flour and cheese
• Cassava‑based carimañolas, which are naturally gluten‑free and fried until golden and crispy
• Buñuelos (cheese balls) made with cassava flour — another gluten‑free option

According to gluten‑free reviewers, the savoury menu is consistently safe, with community reports confirming a dedicated gluten‑free fryer and that most mains are GF.

Some desserts still contain traditional wheat‑based wafers, but the owners have noted they’re working toward gluten‑free alternatives. 

Their savoury dishes pair beautifully with their aguapanela, a Colombian sugar‑cane drink, which you definitely need to try!

Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite near Leeds Kirkgate Market or looking for a unique gluten‑free friendly stop, this small spot delivers flavour, authenticity, and convenience.

It isn’t a dedicated GF kitchen, so coeliacs should still discuss cross‑contamination before ordering, but the transparent allergen labelling and knowledgeable staff help you choose safely.
