We visited Portland for the weekend and really enjoyed Orange Bike. We had someone in our group who has Celiac Disease and after hearing about Orange Bike we made our way over. Great beer, great people, and a great gluten free lobster roll. We even bought some cans to go.

Atmosphere, staff, and food were all amazing. We are a gluten free family and usually limited menu choices - Not here! There was a wide variety of gluten free items on the menu! We ordered the fish and chips, fish sandwich, braised short rib, cottage pie, and pickled onion rings. All were amazing! The batter for the fried items is always gluten free and items fried in a separate frier.

Food is excellent! Orange Bike gluten free beer is crisp and refreshing. Gabriela’s smile is refreshing and welcoming. She was kind and offered different beer selections. Very accommodating!

As someone with celiac, I felt very taken care of at The Bakeshop! I was excited to see gf focaccia -- a rare treat -- and the cashier Corbin went out of his way to check which of the gf baked goods were oat-free for me. The portions are huge, which is also uncommon for gluten free food. If I lived nearby, I would go here all the time!

This is a spot worth checking out for both locals and tourists! Bite Into Maine has three locations including this one, in addition to a trailer at Allagash Brewing and one at Fort Williams. This was my first visit to this particular location and enjoyed it! Located in a great location with lots to do within walking distance but be sure to come here for their lobster rolls or what I enjoyed the Lobster BLT. It comes on a delicious grilled buttered ciabatta roll with delicious lobster atop a classic BLT. Bacon being the perfect level of crisp! On the side you will get a serving of chips. Staff were friendly and after ordering you get a beeper that will let you know when it’s ready. They got plenty of indoor and outdoor seating if the weather is nicer. Also to note for those who cannot handle gluten this is a great spot to check out. And even better for those you can go enjoy gluten free beers at Orange Bike Brewing and checking out the special Bite Into Menu gluten free menu located all over the brewery to enjoy a beer and bite without concern of gluten!

Let me start by saying I have Crohn's disease which has led to me needing a gluten free diet/lifestyle. Pizza has been a rocky road ever since going gluten free because nothing has really been worth it. However, this pizza may single-handedly be the best gluten free pizza I've ever had. We helped a friend move into their new home this weekend in Portland and ordered Portland pie co for dinner after we were all done moving. It was the best decision ever. My boyfriend and his friends are all gluten lovers - they got a garlic crust with cheese, pepperoni, caramelized onions, pineapple, and burnt ends and they all LOVED it. Bonus points for the side of hot honey that they drizzled over the pizza. The two gluten free friends in the group (me included) got a pizza with half feta, pepperoni, and broccoli and half feta, pepperoni, caramelized onions, and green peppers. I am so sad my boyfriend and I live in Boston, because this would be a constant place we hit up for pizza. The pizza was nothing short of perfect and may just land as the best place for gluten free pizza in my heart. My boyfriend rates the gluten pizza as a 9.5/10 I would rate the gluten free pizza as a 10/10 easily. We can't wait to return to Portland for more pizza!

Excellent gluten free seafood

Vanessa Weeks

Great service and great food! Wonderful gluten free options for Italian food.

Levi Ward

The owners are great, not many places around that you find gluten-free food, especially that’s any good. Food is priced within reason for the amount of food you get.

Outstanding cafe with amazing employees, a great place to hang out with friends, and excellent gluten free options (with allergy-aware staff). We really need more places like Aubrey’s in Southern Maine and the Seacoast.

Was very excited to see the large selection of GF items. Was very disappointed to learn that they could not turn on the fryer and the vast majority of items were not available. Also ordered an appetizer of GF stuffed mushrooms that never showed up. I didn't think they were fried, so my guess is the kitchen staff didn't want to be bothered making gluten free items that evening. I got a burger that was just ok. 🤷‍♂️

The Butcher Burger did a great job cooking the burger. The toppings went together well and produced an overall good experience. They offer gluten free buns that are a good size and taste good. The table seating is only outside with all the indoor seating being either at the bar or facing out the window. The inside does smell a bit smoky with all the cooking happening in the building, so you may want to eat outside if that bothers you.

Dustin Kniffin

The food was some of the best we have had in a while. The gluten free toast was amazing. Burger was great and cinnamon bun French toast was great! Highly recommend

Julia Toth

Incredible service, delicious food, lovely atmosphere. We particularly loved the playlist of soft rock with a few country song sprinkled in. Our server Rhene was very sweet and attentive, excellent service. We had two very very sensitive celiacs in our group and she and the restaurant were very attentive. We got the pulled pork sandwich, the chicken buffalo sandwich (with GF breaded chicken! my husband’s favorite he’s ever had), and the burger with an egg on it. They have a separate GF frier and plenty of yummy options. All the food was absolutely incredible. We also got a non-GF blueberry pie that blew us all away. 10/10 would recommend. And we felt very safe in terms of cross-contamination.

Cory Edwards

Delightful little locals spot with fresh fish. Service was a little curt, but get food makes up for it. Got the salmon reuben and was completely blown over by it. Spectacular. Even better was the crab bisque. Spicy and warm. I need it in my belly!! Best one I had in Bar Harbor. The haddock tacos my wife got were super meh. Skip unless you need flavorless tacos. But she loved the clam chowder. Daughter liked her blackened salmon sandwich. Gluten free options everywhere including a great GF chocolate ginger cookie.

Michelle Cekala

This is a wonderful food truck that offered all the tastes of the big e that was safe for my family with celiac. The food was so good and my husband who does not eaten gluten free said it was better then anything he ate all day.

Rick Freeman

Perhaps the best pizza I have ever had. Definitely the best gluten free one. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Cute lil spot. They had a gluten free vegan blueberry mint tea scone, and the texture and taste were incredible 😍

Tessa Hathaway

I went here with my parents after a day in Augusta and it was worth the excursion! My mom is gluten intolerant, so I was looking for good places for her and this came up. We took a chance and it was fantastic! It was so exciting for my mom to find a place so accessible (and delicious) for her dietary needs. Everything is 10/10. Heading back in a few days!

Indigo Burford

Great experience, especially if you are gluten free! The menu was marked and there were a variety of options! The lobster taco special on corn tortillas was amazing - and our server Jesse was fabulous!

Linda Carew

We used Sisters Catering service for a group of 30. The sandwiches, salad and pasta salad were delicious. The gluten free bread used on a few sandwiches was exceptional. One guest said that the sandwich they had was the best he’d ever eaten. The food was delivered on time.

Jessie Powers

Love their gluten free options!! My favorite it the turkey blt!! Great place to get small gifts as well!

Susie Bean

We really enjoyed this place. It's not any more expensive than I would expect for a fresh seafood place in Maine. The lobster roll was fantastic. Thick flaky chunks of lobster, cooked really well. They were also really good about working with you on allergies. I have a dairy allergy and my in-laws have gluten allergies. There was something for all of us and we all enjoyed it very much.

Poor service: I sat in this restaurant for 1hr 10 min and was never fed. Here's how: I ordered a burger and it came out with the wrong toppings, TWICE. Plus, both remakes took over 12 minutes to come to me. (12 minutes for the first, 14 minutes for the second, which is about the same amount of time that it took to deliver our food the first time.) Typically a remake is put at the front of the line, apparently not here. By the time remake #1 came, my husbands food was cold (he was trying to be kind and wait to eat with me). By the time remake #2 came, my husband had eaten his dinner (b/c it was getting really ridiculous to keep waiting.) I opted to take remake #2 to go, as I didn't want to sit there any longer, queue major frustration. We were a two top. A four top next to us sat after us, ordered after us, got their food, ate, paid their bill, and left, all before I was correctly given the food that I ordered. Pros: Beautiful back deck overlooking the water, and gluten free beer option. They comped both of our meals b/c we asked them to.

I have a gluten allergy. I tried a hot sandwich at Jersey Mike's a few months ago and asked if they would toast the gluten-free bread/roll. They did and the sandwich was amazing! I have been craving it ever since. Our closest location is an hour away. Today we had to go to Bangor and I found out there is a location close to where we would be. Well the enthusiasm ended there because they told me they aren't allowed to toast anything. If you know gluten free bread, you know that it sucks the life out of anything put on it by absorbing the moisture of the other ingredients. Toasting at least slows down the process. No way was I going to pay that much for a sandwich that would fall apart before I ate half of it. I got a salad because we were there and hungry, but this is the last time I will go there. Too bad, they had a really good thing going and corporate put a stop to it. The salad was good but not what I went there for.

I am so disappointed in the treatment of locals from this place. I went in the morning before my shift at a restaurant two doors down the street. I asked for just one scrambled egg because I am gluten intolerant, and was met with a nasty attitude and a horrifying price of $9 plus tax for One. Singular. Egg. As someone in the local food service industry who has known the owner for a long time, I am disgusted with the lack of concern for not only my food sensitivities but the fact that getting a side singular egg costs more than I what I would pay for TWO ENTIRE CARTONS of eggs. Treat locals better! Lost my business permanently. If the employees are coming down the street to our restaurant to eat during their lunch breaks, there is something wrong!!!!!

Kate Feeney

I was sadly disappointed with this restaurant. Service was ok, our waitress definitely had too many tables so we couldn’t order anything else but that is to no fault of her. The biggest issue here was the fried food. I ordered a chicken sandwich (gluten free) which I was very excited for since few to no restaurants in the area serve GF fried food. The breading was black, and tasted like straight burnt oil. I tried my best on the sandwich but it left a nasty taste in my mouth and was absolutely not worth it. Please change your frying oil more frequently 😭

Amazing bell pepper soup and gluten free bread

Super Sub Shop is one of my favorite local spots to grab a gluten free sandwich from. The staff are super kind and friendly, and they actually know proper protocol for preparing my sandwich to avoid cross contamination. Thank you for being a trusted place for your gluten free folks!

Usually Jersey Mikes is my GO TO.. BUT not this one unfortunately.. I ordered two gluten free sandwiches and three regular sandwiches. Two chipotle chicken (Gluten free). Turkey, Provolone and mustard on another. (That was made right!) Steak and Cheese, took one bite and immediately spit it out. Tasted chemically, like the grill was freshly cleaned (Totally get it but you can taste it.) Last sandwich was a Chicken, Bacon and ranch. I didn’t get that one, I received a second steak and cheese that tastes the same as the other one.. Will not be returning.. I love jersey mikes but this one is not it..

If you need gluten free this is not the place. It's an afterthought here. Plenty of other options in Old Port to go to...like Ri Ra where you will be safer eating and you have a ton more options than the sad 2 or 3 offerings at this joint

Excellent gluten free options, including some of the best bread and pizza crust I’ve found in the area. It is clear that they put in the effort. Might not be suitable for celiac, but for a mild gluten intolerance like my own, it has been a game changer.
