As a vegetarian visiting St. John's I was bit concerned about food selections for myself but Nook and Cannery was such a delight. The vibes were immaculate and the food was incredible. They offer many ways to adjust meals to suit vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free folks. My favourite meal during my trip!
The food was delicious. Almost everything on the menu could be made gluten free. Staff well aware of Celiac Disease. Incredibly friendly staff and prices were very reasonable
I have Celiac and this place has an incredible number of options for gluten free. And so so delicious. Service was friendly and welcoming. My kids loved it as well
The staff was extremely friendly and provided consistent care. The food was wonderful, and they have Gluten Free/Celiac options. They are are able to sub alternatives if needed.
Would definitely go back
This brewery is located right near the Skerwink Trail. Great place to stop after the hike. Gluten free grilled cheese, poutine and beer available. Great little spot for gluten free and non gluten free!
Mitch was our server and he was amazing! Great recommendations and just an all around nice guy.
Food here is amazing. If you’re gluten free they have one of the best gluten free crusts around.
Def come here. Prices are more than fair.
The cutest coffee shop with delightful baked goods and lovely staff! Great gluten free panini and lentil chili, cannot recommend the salted caramel brownie (gf) highly enough! Such a gem of a cafe to find.
Best Gluten Free Pizza in Canada! I've been to nearly every province in Canada and this was by far the most unique pizza, good size for GF, bbq sauce base, chicken with hot honey sauce! Great atmosphere, friendly service.
We love going to Jack Astor's. There's something for everyone from our picky eater, to our vegetarian to our celiac. Candace is the best but I might be biased!
Lacey M was our server this morning, we were greeted promptly and with a smile. When my friend ordered gluten free toast she went above and beyond to make sure that everything in the meal was safe for her to eat. She has a fantastic and bubbly attitude and was a pleasure to chat with :) we're both retail managers and think she is truly an asset to the restaurant.
I had a great gluten free sandwich here! The gf bread is made off-site and they have a separate toaster and mayo for the sandwiches. Obviously they bake regular bread here so the risk for a Celiac isn’t zero but I enjoyed my sandwich very much and the man at the counter was so helpful and patient with my questions!
Not my first time here, group definitely enjoyed our meals! Delicious seafood chowder (I ordered the smaller size—generous!), and tried my first cod au gratin with tasty homemade fries. My partner eats gluten-free on account of celiac and very much enjoyed their GF fish and chips. Very friendly service, and a delightful gift shop upstairs!
Very cute cafe with a surprisingly large selection of ways to get your coffee. A healthy menu of selections baked goods, including vegan and gluten-free options.
The owner is very friendly. Chatting with him makes you feel like you’ve known him for years. Newfoundland hospitality at its finest, and definitely worth a stop!
Got some takeout, and staff were so helpful with helping to choose celiac-friendly options! Not only was the food great, but pricing was very reasonable. Would 100% eat there again.
The Keg Steakhouse + Bar in St. John’s, located at 127 Harbour Drive, offers a refined yet casual dining experience with stunning views of the harbor and Signal Hill from its second-story patio. The menu shines with perfectly aged, spice-rubbed steaks and succulent prime rib, complemented by fresh seafood and inventive sides like pistachio-crusted salmon. Recent diners on OpenTable (4.6/5 from 4470 reviews) praise the attentive, friendly staff—servers like Michelle and Neil stand out for their warmth and professionalism. The elegant ambiance, extensive wine list, and gluten-free options make it ideal for special occasions. However, some note high prices and occasional overcooked dishes. Despite minor hiccups, The Keg remains a top choice for a memorable meal in St. John’s vibrant downtown.
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%
Didn't expect to be in St. John's but an emergency landing had us in town for a night. Went here before the airport and the atmosphere was super cool. All the food was good. Service was wonderful and Steven (of the namesake Bourbon Sour fame) even showed us the "Underbelly"- oldest room in St. John! I love that geeky stuff. To top it off, they have a gluten free fryer so I was able to have fried fish and sweet potato fries!!!
I don't eat meat and I'm allergic to gluten and dairy. I was shocked that Irving's restaurant had gluten free and veggie burgers! They made my fries in the oven so they wouldn't be contaminated with gluten ❤️ So nice. On my short trip I've eaten there twice already! Servers are super nice too.
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!
My partner and I ate here once during our stay. I am celiac and need gluten free options which they had on the menu!!! Great experience and so lucky to find GF options even in a small town. We will be back!
I go here everytime I'm in town, which is a couple times a month for work, and I've never had a bad drink here. There's a huge variety of drinks hot and cold and they always have interesting seasonal drinks as well. I always get a sandwich with a gluten free bun when I'm here, my favourites are the pesto chicken and the cran-apple chicken sandwiches, the gluten free bun is very good, and doesn't fall apart like other gf breads tend to.
I do enjoy the deli environment but the layout here is absymal and it's never straightforward to order deli items and or pay for them.
The gluten free rice Kaiser is decent but a bit crumbly so plan accordingly. Dining in at a table is very pleasant if available.
My favourite sandwich is the curry chicken salad. Get the olives, carrots and pickles on the side.
The modest selection of cheeses is decadent. I look forward to bringing a wedge or two home.
Do not visit this place if you are in a rush. But overall, it is worth the bit of chaos.
Incredible Incredible Incredible. I was here with my mom and husband. They loved their meal. I am Cieliac and I looooooved my meal. Some of the best gluten free food I've ever had. Thank you again!!
Such an amazing place! We’re from out of town and this was an amazing date spot. The atmosphere was great, staff were lovely and very knowledgeable! They also had a lot of gluten free options or items on the menu that could be made gluten free. Everything was simple yet so tasty and the presentation was amazing.
Enjoyed the experience so much yesterday we came back again today. Had the same excellent server Bhaskar - he does a great job particularly with both a gluten free and a vegetarian request from 2 of our party. We came for the excellent beer and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing - burger, the fried chicken sandwich and the roasted red pepper soup.
This was my first experience, and I have to say— I was thoroughly impressed!
The service was exceptional. As someone with celiac, I appreciated how the staff reassured me about their careful handling of gluten-free options in the kitchen.
There were so many great gluten-free choices, and for once, I felt like a normal person ordering from the menu instead of being limited to just one or two options.
The food was fantastic and surprisingly well-priced. The beef tacos were absolutely incredible! I was also amazed to find that all the desserts were gluten-free, which is something I rarely encounter. We ended up getting two desserts, and both were beautifully presented and delicious!
My only critique is the music made it a tinsie bit hard for us to hear one another chatting.
Overall, the experience was outstanding, and we’ll definitely be back again and again!
A unique place with lots to offer - excellent service and fresh fish and seafood with a view. Even better - they have a gluten free menu, and their wine pours are at a great price point and are topped off nicely! Nothing fancy - just good Newfoundland grub.
Had breakfast here twice during our week in St. John's, and it was worth it! So many options, and the fact that they can serve most options gluten-free (i.e. on a gluten-free bagel) was great. Unfortunately, they do not have a dedicated deep-fryer, so I wasn't able to get any of the unhealthy stuff that everyone else had, but that's okay...I appreciated the fruit substitution for the hash browns!
The food is decent, tasted good. They have a lot of Gluten Free Options including a chickpea roti. Our server was very good and all the staff was also. I was not too upset at the mandatory tip, but it is disappointing that some business owners think they're should be allowed to add an additional percentage.
I have no complaints except for owners being greeedy. I hope they pay they staff atleast minimum wage.
Be prepped to pay an automatic 18% tip for groups of 2 and more.
