Riptide Marine Pub

We went to riptide last week and our server didn’t know what celiac was and said the fries were gluten free but they were in the same fryer as gluten food. When I didn’t tip her because I got gluten in my meal as a celiac, she acted like a child and chucked the card machine at my friends and didn’t talk to us.

Great space, cozy upstairs. However, garlic bread was not good - very oily and not very garlicky. I ate a full meal and left feeling well fed, except for my garlic bread. For desert, I had a delicious chocolate cake and my company shared the brownies, because they wanted the garlic bread taste out of their mouths. I believe this was a plot by the restaurant to get people to buy more desert to wash away the taste of bad garlic bread. I gave this place a 4/5 because it’s really good and not too overpriced, it’s cozy and at a scenic location where you can watch the harbour. It’s also delicious food, has vegan and gluten free options. But I omitted one star because the garlic bread was really sub par, even for my uncle. Also, the statue outside is strange. This doesn’t take away from the experience at all, more of an additional intrigue. Thanks riptide, you’re doing great (except for the garlic bread)
