Lily Kane

100% GF Lots of options Staff really nice

Nikita Crane

I’d avoid the GF bun it’s very dry and crumbly but they the most celiac safe place I know! Dedicated fryers, very knowledgeable staff and amazing GF fried chicken! When you order online they even have a celiac option to check off.

Horrendous experience. We recently heard that this restaurant could cater to those with Celiac disease. So we gave it an go today!! Everyone was excited. After asking repeatedly to confirm everything is gluten free and free from cross contamination, before/during/after, we were assured it was. My 10 year old is now violently ill. I might point out that it was 2:00pm when dined and we were the only table there. All any parent of a child with Celiac asks is that a restaurant is just honest on whether they can guarantee gluten free food and possibility of cross contamination (within reason). If you can’t, we’ll bring something with us!! The severity of the reaction my son experiences is always in proportion to the amount gluten he ingests. If it’s a slight cross contamination, it’s usually a couple trips to the toilet to vomit, bit of Tylenol then he’s good. The severity of this particular attack tells me it was direct ingestion of wheat. We’re moments away from going to the hospital. To the waitress that served us and the owner of this establishment…shame on you. I wish you were here watching my child experience the effects of your neglect. Watching your child suffer like this is heartbreaking. While I’m on it…the service was terrible too. Seeing as how we were the only table in the place, why did I have to go to the bar to tell her we were ready to order, again to order a drink, then again to ask for the bill. The Canadian guilt in me still left a 15% tip. Regret that now. Edit to this post after the fact…Owner contacted me and refunded money. Offered up apology. He did clarify that food is prepared in same kitchen so avoidance of cross contamination cannot be guaranteed. He said staff are supposed to tell the customers this. He’s committed to retraining and educating.

First time visiting CB since we moved to Kamloops last month. We dined in for breakfast. Breakfast tacos, waffle benedict (bacon and apple), coffee, service...it was all absolutely fantastic. We also picked up a couple pieces of cheesecake for dessert after dinner. Peanut butter brownie cheesecake and champagne strawberry cheesecake. Amazing...delicious. This bistro/bakery is 100% gluten free...and if you didn't know that, you wouldn't know. This is one of those businesses that you want to shout about from the rooftops; but at the same time not because you want to get a seat when you go. CB will definitely be a go-to for us on a regular basis.

Had a lovely pizza and Choc brownie, highly recommend it, but what made the place so memorable was the server Sienna who was awesome and the young chef who took the time to ensure we enjoyed our meal. The only downside was that the gluten free pizza crust my buddy had was not so good but edible.

Debbie Stirling

All I can say is WOW!! Being gluten free and being off dairy right now I thought my days of poutine were over! The vegan/gluten-free poutine is so delicious and such a generous portion! The gluten-free deep fried pickles are crunchy and tasty. The service was incredibly fast, easy by phone/app with updates and all. I was greeted with a smile and positive energy when I walked in the door. I will 1000% be back again!!

Ali Crossley

Absolutely fantastic. Quick service and amazing gluten free options on menu….you wouldn’t even know it was vegan ;) the Kalimari is a absolute game changer!

Nikita Crane

Fried chicken, dedicated fryers and beer

Lana Fedora

In heaven. Most items are or can be made safe for celiac. Had the Yum Bowl…sooooo good. The best part though? GLUTEN FREE ONION RINGS. They were just incredible. If you’re able, come down and chow down. It’s definitely worth it.

Justin Malhi

Service and atmosphere are great but food is beyond mid and overpriced considering the lack of real flavour, definitely not the most enjoyable sushi, iki is miles better for gluten free folks. But this place was alright.

Annie Yang

The menu is SO CLEARLY LABELED! I can’t have gluten or dairy and I had the most fabulous dinner! The cider was also lovely. Kind staff that take allergies very seriously

Levi Gogolinski

I've been here a handful of times and the service is always excellent. They have a fully gluten free menu that is prepared in a separate part of the kitchen (including a dedicated gluten free fryer!) - a dream for anyone who is celiac. Highly recommend.

André Paris

I will however that the very busy bartender didn't know of his own establishments policies and practices surrounding gluten free. Everything is prepared separately. Use an app like find me GF if you want a more accurate picture of any establishment.

Zoe Jamieson

We always love visiting Ulis. Last night we were visiting and I believe Dean (bubbly guy with beard) served us— he is the best! So knowledgeable and attentive, always making great recommendations. Plus there are many options for people with celiac disease. Thanks again Dean and ulis staff!

diana estrada

Best breakfast we ever had! We took my husband for his birthday and we love it! Foos is delicious and they have a lot of options, including GLUTEN FREE! We love it!!! Highly recommend

Teale D

Great all around. We came here as we had a celiac in the group and almost everything on the menu was gf. Everything was delicious, big menu, great desserts, and our server was very nice.

Darragh Greaney

Couldn’t recommend this place more. Staff were honestly amazing. Modified the menu for celiac and honestly was so so tasty. Hats off to the chefs! Special thanks to Kat, Paige and Darren. They were so welcoming and nice, one of best experiences we’ve had to date in Vancouver. Thank you all 🎉

Always LOVE Sansho Sushi, and visit often. They are always busy with dine-in and take out orders, which tells you it’s a great spot. Never had to wait for a table though, and the staff are always friendly & attentive no matter the time or day. Excellent selection of boxes and special items. The highlight is the gluten free menu!! Super thankful for a sushi spot that offers so many gluten free options- including teriyaki!! I love their chicken teriyaki roll, V4 roll (vegetable) and spicy salmon roll. The miso soup is also Gf and delicious.

Mariah Sobey

A MUST TRY! Joe makes the best gluten free crusts🤌🏻

Brought the family for breakfast. Everyone found something they enjoyed. Plenty of Gluten-free options to pick from. Portions are decent for the price. Friendly staff. Very busy on the weekend though, call ahead.

Julie Kaufman

El Taquero recently catered our wedding. They were absolutely incredible in all aspects. They had an exceptional team during the lead up to the event. On the day of they were extremely organized, personable with our guests, and the food was AMAZING! They managed allergies and took great care with my celiac disease. We are a few weeks out and I still have guests commenting on how delicious the food was! A huge thank you to the whole team! You made our special day that much more special!

Eric LeBlanc

We needed gluten free and we were very happy to know that they have a dedicated gluten free menu and they use a dedicated gluten free fryer for their food. It can be really hard to find a lot of places like this, but this is by far my favourite place to eat in Victoria! I really want to thank everyone there who made it very easy to find safe food for us.

Zarin Branston

Very disappointing to say the least, save your money and go somewhere else. Both deep fried dishes came cold and soggy from sitting on the pass while we waited for an entree salad and a burger to catch up. $4 for a gluten free bun is absurd but good on the bartenders for a delicious spicy marg. Kelowna local but I’ll never go back!

We crossed Canada in Westfalia in the summer of 2024 and we took the opportunity to discover the country's microphones. I'm celiac so I have to say that usually while my husband enjoyed the local beers I had to settle for a cider or a gin and tonic! I was SO excited to get to the Whistler Brewing Company knowing that they have 2 gluten-free beer options! Indescribable moment of my trip to have an (ok... 2!!!) EXCELLENT gluten-free beers on the terrace! My husband loved his “flight” too! The relaxed atmosphere as well as the exceptional (and French-speaking!!!) service are also worthy of mention!

Conor S

Their menu is great and has numerous options for gluten free people, vegans and vegetarians. A great balance of options and then all the other good stuff too!

Natasha Chan

Loved our experience at Minami - we had a bunch of dietary restrictions and were celebrating our wedding which they thoughtfully provided us with a surprise dairy free/ gluten free dessert 🙏🏼 service was excellent, we loved the aburis, brussel sprouts (try it!) and how fresh the sashimi was!

Chris Garthwaite

Awesome Gluten Free options, the Poke bowl was the best I've ever had. Great food, great service, better view.

Nevin Shoker

My family and I had a great experience. With the exception of root beer, there was something on the menu for all of us. A lot of gluten free options as well as Vegan and plant based. Good healthy and delicious options as well. And then there was the burgers that were very satisfying. Really nice restaurant. Option of sitting where it's quiet or in the lounge where there's a great social vibe going on.

Joelly Segal

Easily my favourite go to restaurant for my family. Menu is extensive and reliable. My son is celiac and they take extra care always and have lots for him to choose from.

Lucielle Dinney

Great service and the food was great! They even have a dedicated fryer for celiacs!

William Copeland

Came here after a day of skiing near banff, and what an unbelievable experience. Every course we got was top notch. We started with the Thai mussels- the sauce was flavorful and perfectly balanced. For dinner, I got the beef bourginone, which was hearty and really delicious, and we got for dessert a lavender crème bruelle. An added item- dined here with a gluten free friend, and they were very accommodating. This is a top notch restaurant- i feel this is on par with a Michelin star restaurant

Hal Saxby

Terrible gluten-free buns. Terrible service.

Nikita Crane

Went for happy hour - great cocktails and great GF options. Many things are GF or can be amended, server was super knowledgeable. I had the wings, hummous with a GF flatbread and nachos. Really tasty! And great waterfront views.

Jessica Hughes

Sara is one of our favorite servers!! She is always on top of it making sure our food is gluten free as I have celiac

Adam Green

Exceptional quality and value. You'd never know that everything was gluten free it was so good. Best GF crust in the area for sure, and the calamari was outstanding.

Niamh O

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.
