Amazing poutine with dedicated Gluten Free fryer, thank you!
Yummy combinations (also gluten free!), and truly crispy fries!
A visit doesn't disappoint and is always a family favourite!!
My spouse arranged in advance with the head chef for a vegetarian/gluten-free seven-course meal. While the food tasted great and was plated beautifully, I was glutened and severely sick within minutes of leaving the restaurant. I let the head chef/owner know that the accommodations were not met, to which I received a very obviously ChatGPT-written response. It was extremely disappointing that not only was I made sick, the response I received had little to no effort put into it. A week ago I sent a response and still haven’t heard back. Paying more than $500 for accommodations to not be met and the follow-on communication (and eventual lack thereof) is ridiculous. Stay away anyone who has celiac.
I have celiac disease and rarely get takeout because the choices are limited and also cross-contamination can make me ill. I took a chance at the Subway in Carleton Place and was served by Christine. When I told her I needed gluten free, she asked if I was celiac or gluten free (there is a difference). No one in the food industry has ever asked me this so I was pleasantly surprised. She then prepared my subs away from the regular prep station to avoid contamination and toasted them by themselves.
She was one of the most pleasant people I've met and was not at all put out over the special treatment my order required.
Thanks Christine for the extra effort
Now, if they could create a gluten free bread that is as good as the regular choices.

Just ordered a Greek gluten free pizza and garlic dip - so good! All of you/us gluten free people, you will not be disappointed! It actually tasted and smelled like the real deal :) I have had GF pizzas from many establishments in Ottawa and this was by far the best GF pizza I have had.
We chose Boulton House to host a wedding rehearsal dinner on November 17, 2021 for 11 people. We had never been there before and we trusted all of the fantastic reviews. This restaurant exceeded our expectations! We simply can't say enough good things about the food and service we received. We'd like to give a big shout-out to "Shannon" who so graciously and wonderfully served our table and to the chef(s)? who provided some of the best meals we have ever had. A big "thank you" also goes to Chris who so patiently helped me choose the wines to serve. For people who must eat a strict gluten-free diet, two of our guests have Celiac Disease and they enjoyed a delicious appetizer of GF calamari and followed by GF Scallop Tagliatelle and they raved about how good it was. Thank you, Boulton House, for giving us a wedding rehearsal meal to remember always!! We'll be back!!
I performed a comedy hypnosis show there, and the staff were fantastic, working in the packed room! I had the burger with a gluten free bun (which can usually be hit or miss...but this one was pretty good!), and it was great!! 3 Pool tables, beauty sized bar, and friendly locals...what more could you ask for?!
Great little spot, good food and value. Carnivore omelette is yummy and accommodates my gluten issues. Ella is usually my girl and is amazing! I only asked that one day I get to eat their Benny. I recommend
Absolutely amazing service that actually respects people's accommodations and allergies.
I have celiac disease which means I am unfortunately unable to eat gluten (wheat, barley, etc.) unless I want to get really sick. One time, I ordered the Zac's Big Breakfast here and had asked them to replace the home fries (which weren't gluten-free) with some fresh fruit. They sent in the plate with home fries, and I immediately told them about it. Instead of being very weirdly defensive about it or denying that it had cross contamination (like other diners are around the area), they immediately apologized and gave me a new plate with the fresh fruit instead of the home fries. I came back there a few weeks later, and ordered the same thing. They remembered me and made sure that what I ordered did not have any cross contamination.
Aside from that, the food is pretty fresh and standard diner food. If you like eating out at old-fashioned diners, then you won't be disappointed. The waitress working there with the curly hair is also really nice. The atmosphere can be packed with people and can feel overwhelming for some but hey, shit happens.
This diner has been very accommodating and very understanding for people with celiac disease, which is incredibly refreshing considering the Zak's Diner in Kanata removed gluten-free options on their menu, and I highly recommend this place if you have celiac disease or know someone who suffers from it.
