One of the more creative diners in town. Great food, flexible for gluten free options, vegan or vegetarian. I still go for the chicken or meat options but havenât had a bad meal here. The popcorn chicken that I had last time was fun and tasty. The pot stickers were also great. Highly recommended.

As a celiac, I get very excited about restaurants that know what's up. This is one of those places. Like a diamond in the rough. đ I got the chicken strips and fries, with gravy on the side. All gluten-free and all delicious! The servers were kind and reassuring. I felt safe eating here which is such a great feeling. So the bonus of crispy yet fluffy fries and crunchy, juicy chicken strips was heaven. I got a cheesecake to go, and managed to snap a photo of the last bite. Haha. I almost forgot. So, my celiac friends, you gotta eat here if you're in Gander!

Everything is perfect there ! As I have no home, finding a place that feels welcoming and where I can use a good wifi is precious and I felt good working all day there, for few days actually. People that work there are awesome, pretty good coffee/chai latte/caramel macchiato and they also had gluten-free option (only the bread for sandwiches but they have plenty of choice and the one I had was delicious). I recommend 100%

Hadnât been to the bagel cafe in years. Now gluten free + many other allergies. Servers were able to help me navigate the menu for what I could safely eat. Service was excellent, food was amazing & the restaurant still has that rustic charmâ

Couldnât eat much due to my dietary restrictions (allergies to fish & nuts, gluten free) but server was very knowledgeable about safe options. I usually inwardly groan about ordering salad but it was the best salad I think Iâve eaten in my life

Although not advertised, and probably tough to accomodate on a busier night, the staff worked with me to meet my dietary needs! I appreciate their hard work. If you are gluten free or have other food allergies, would recommend giving it a try. Pretty hipster for the locale, but typical new age brew pub feel. I managed to get pan fried cod and it was fantastic!

Love this place so much! So cozy, great food, gluten-free options, and reasonable prices. I love Grandma Liu's Vegan Curry and the Smash Burger. The creme brulee and pavlova are some of my favourite desserts. Great place to go on a Saturday night with friends. If you're in Carbonear, you must check it out!
