We've been going to the Bethany Blues on Route 1 near Lewes for several years while on our annual Rehoboth Beach trip. The food and service is always excellent, but I'm writing this review to give them the credit they deserve for being amazing with gluten restrictions/celiac. Every single time, when I mention my gluten free diet, a manager is sent to our table and is very knowledgeable about their gluten free options. I have been gluten free since 2008 and eat out multiple times a week so I can attest that this place is definitely one of the best in handling this restriction. While most restaurants are familiar with GF diets these days, not many make a point to train their management on it and have such a consistent plan in place (they also said they now offer a gluten free bun which is great). I had the pulled pork with cheesy creamed corn and a chopped salad and it was delicious and a generous portion. Thanks, Bethany Blues, for being so accommodating!

Came here because of the reviews mentioning gluten free options. The place was packed but we were seated quickly, asked for a table outside and got it. Great view. Dolphins swimming in the water. The restaurant is very loud. Water comes by default in a plastic to go cup. I think they're trying to get you in and out as fast as possible. I asked for a gluten-free menu, they said they are in the process of printing one and showed me a sheet of paper i took a photo of. At the table there was very little talk of dietary restrictions, the server did check with the kitchen if what I'd chosen was compliant gluten free dairy free but there was no attempt at helping select something. I honestly think they didn't understand or care how serious an issue that is for some people. My companion who can eat anything ordered a pepperoni flat bread and described it as "meh". I ordered the octopus which came with "apple puree" that tasted like absolutely nothing and i mean nothing and the texture was like grainy mashed potatoes that sat on the counter for two days drying out. I suspect there was hidden butter in it because of how i felt after eating it. Also ordered a "veggie bowl". Instead of actually making something with this, they just slapped a bunch of ingredients on a plate, added a cup of tamari on the side and called it a day. At least i hope it was tamari. Feeling as bad as i did after eating here could have been caused by gluten containing soy sauce or butter. This was neither good, nor priced appropriately, not safe if you have a food allergy.

Not a great place if you have celiac disease. We have been visiting this restaurant for a while and didn't have issues until recently. The last visit I was sick afterwards from what I assume was cross contamination. We tried again today stressing that I have celiac disease. After making some modifications to the meal (which was marked as a gluten free option) and being assured everything would be ok as they have a celiac button that alerts the kitchen I was brought a burger that had a fried onion topping and the burger itself was fried (they do not have a dedicated gluten free fryer). I sent the meal back telling the server it wasn't safe after he kept telling me it was. He came back and confirmed it was not safe. When the manager came over to check on us 15 minutes later he offered to make me a salad with no protein to make up for it since that's faster. Anyway long story short not all the staff is trained on cross contamination or food allergies for that matter. Eat at your own risk...
