JA Shaw

Love this place. Highly recommend a reservation. We couldn't get a reservation but got take-out & ate at their picnic tables! Saw many people go in and immediately leave because Sinful Kitchen was full up! Their are allergy aware & have many gluten-free & vegetarian options. Our group had the Monte Cristo, a fav, 2 different kinds of eggs Benedict- classic & crab, strawberry waffles, & corned beef hashvw eggs. I also love the BBQ jackfruit. We are not nearby but try to go at least 2x a yr.

Erica Marinaro

Definitely a dive bar. Menu was clearly labeled GF. The French fries were great!

Jacqueline Loiseau

Amazing spot! The GF IPA was so good we went to buy some at the liquor store after dinner! My husband and I had the burger and pizza and would never guess they were both GF!

Jessi Parker

Gluten-free HEAVEN. Make sure you stop here. You will be so happy you did.

Scott Bryant

Gluten Free Beer, Gluten Free Everything. Cannot recommend enough.

Jacqueline Loiseau

Very knowledgeable staff for allergies. I got the fish tacos and when I asked the waitress about switching the sauce from a dairy one she had an amazing recommendation! The tacos came as a rice bowl for GF and had an allergy notice indicated on my meal. Amazing place!

Domonique

Great service. They have gluten- free lobster rolls! The lobster was okay.

Meredith Reed

Great options if you are gluten free!

Megan Stowe

It made me so happy to have gluten free fried shrimp and french fries. My husband said his clams were great and the non gf blueberry cornbread was delicious.

Chris Moulton

Service here was amazing! This gluten free bakery has got to be one of the BEST things I have ever had before! The service here is very good and I must say they are really nice employees. I hope to come back to this place over the weekends and even tho it's expensive all it matters is that it's the best in town! Also, thank you for everything you guys do for the brunswick area teen center! I go to the teen center alot and I have some of the granola deserts and I LOVE them alot. I liked the two boston cream donuts and the smores bar I had this morning. Again thank you guys for everything and I can see this business being the best ones in town!

It was very busy when we went in, but all the staff members were kind, friendly, and accommodating. The food is excellent. My husband got coffee, which came in a carafe…very efficient and convenient, thank you. My hot tea came in a smaller carafe/pot, which was obviously only used for tea…so there wasn’t a coffee taste at all (thank you!!). It kept my tea very hot which is also so great. I noted the vegan and gluten free options, which is so wonderful to see. I do not need GF food, but people I care about do…so it is lovely to see it offered. I also enjoy vegan food, though I did not get that this morning (I’m vegetarian, so again, it’s great to see vegetarian/vegan options). Their attention to detail is what made it so great. And the decor in their restrooms/water closets were entertaining lol.

Barbara Gulino

Great food, great vibes - a wonderful lunch and a really good gluten free bun for the lobster roll! A total win for me!

Samantha v

they were incredible! I had the best gluten free lobster roll!! and GF firecracker shrimp and sweet potato fries. would highly recommend

Kristen S.

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.

Courtney Kelm

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!

Ray Bernoff

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!

Scott Bryant

Unbelievable GF lobster rolls and other seafood options. They take serious care w/ Allergies

Sydney Robinson

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!

Heidi Raphaela-Alamosa

I have been going here since moving to Maine in 2020....not because I am medically gluten free....just because it is great stuff! I try to stop in just for a muffin but usually come away with a lot more! Lots of creative variety, side by side with the old standby--delicious blueberry muffin, in case you're not in the mood for the fun rotating unique flavors. I am not telling my favorites because I want some to be left when I get there! LOL Nice staff, very talented baker who must work very hard!

Prasad Ramamoorthy

Really great find in the heart of Bar Harbor. Super considerate about our gluten allergy and vegan preferences. The smoothies here are to die for. Try the PB J smoothie. Loved all the food and the ambience was terrific. Not crowded even during the holiday long weekend.

Vanessa Weeks

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

Kelsey Babcock

Really nice casual lunch! We ate outside and looked out at the water. I got a lobster roll with old bay fries (delicious!) and my partner enjoyed the fish and chips. All their fried items are gluten free which was super exciting for my partner! Not sure it would work for someone with celiac’s but it was perfect for us.

Robert Cohen, Real Estate

Wild Willy’s Burgers in York, Maine is a must try whenever you are up in this area. The menu is wonderful comfort food and incredibly fresh. With gluten free options, this restaurant is much more inviting than many other places. From March until early November, this is definitely one of our favorite restaurants every time we come up to York, Maine. Enjoy, Robert.

A Whit

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.

J Malo

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. 🤷‍♂️

Jan van Oordt

First time getting food at this establishment. My sister and I are both gluten intolerant so this review really pertains to such consumers. Lots and lots of options- we ordered the Mariner plate for lunch. It was take out so we ate at home. The scallops and shrimps were excellent, the fish was really good. Finding tasty gluten free food can be tough. Our issue was with the French fries. Restaurants that serve gluten free food can sometimes not refresh their oil as often as they would for normal food. That is our guess- the fries had a strong, unusual odour so we both ate only a couple and we both felt unwell afterwards. I would guess that the oil is rancid- everything else was tasty so please folks, switch your oil over for gluten free food more often. Thanks

Alysia Ward

I was very excited to have a gluten-free bun for a lobster roll. Another person at the table loved the lobster poutine. Highly recommend!

Michael Brunelle

Gluten free fried seafood!!!!! Wow, I used to come here years ago and then developed celiac disease in my LATE 40s (not fun) so I had to stop visiting but lo and behold they did it, they came up with a gluten free batter AND a separate fryer for cooking gluten free, however it is in a multi use kitchen but haven't had gluten issues yet. Thank you Thank you!

Ion Balaurea

Large Selection. Super Fast and Friendly service. Gluten Free Option Had the Lobster Roll and Shrimp Roll Both were delicious. Large portions One is enough for two usually. Depending on what you buy,

Chin Down

Great food and atmosphere, kid friendly, gluten free options for most the menu.

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

Benjamin Senecal

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.

Jeremy Reich

As someone living gluten free, it's amazing to find a bakery like this nearby. I got a breakfast sandwich, a strawberry muffin, and a cinnamon bun...and all was spectacular. It's rare to be able to indulge in this range of high quality baked goods. Great if you're gluten free...but also just great stuff - check it out! P.S. there are some photos from Baristas and Bites, this team's Portland location, which they relocated to Cape as b+b Bakery a few years ago. Don't be confused if it looks different in its current location in Cape Elizabeth.

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.

Dena Wade

I wanted to rave about this place because they have gluten free items on the menu and it is hard to find an Italian restaurant that offers this. I was impressed that they offer gluten free bread for dipping and for the bruschetta appetizer, which I had. The bruschetta tasted good, however the bread was a little soggy. The salad that came with our meals was delicious and the highlight of the meal. Because they offered gluten free lasagna I decided to try that but I was very disappointed. There was hardly any meat in my serving, the sauce was meager and not very tasty and I wished I had ordered something else. My husband wasn't impressed with his entree, either. However, my brother-in-law loved his chicken alfredo so I would go again and order one of the other intriguing items that I thought about trying before giving up on this place.

derp derpstein

Sandwich was good but they put all the meat in a big mound in the center so the edges were just bread. Their bagels aren't good- too bready, not enough gluten. They are not chewy like real bagels. They're only popular because Bangorians have never had a real bagel. Atmosphere is chaotic and hectic, all the hard surfaces make it very echoey and hard to hold a conversation. They replaced all the wood floors with cheap looking laminate. The plastic silverware is so flimsy, my spoon was bending trying to eat the potato salad. Staff were very friendly.

Marz Kay

Love this place.

Holly Payson

Wonderful gluten-free food and great laid back atmosphere

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.

Genevieve Benites

Have severe gluten intolerance and this place was incredible and accommodating. How many places can you say have gluten free breaded chicken and options for pizza, burger buns and sandwich buns? Well they do and it’s very tasty. Had the boneless wings, garlic bread and a chicken sandwich so far. Honestly willing to come back for all the different gluten free options again! Absolutely delicious and highly recommend their chicken.

Jeffrey DeMarey

Had a quick stop for a sandwich. Had the six wives salad.. amazing Also had a wrap with avocado and turkey. Definitely recommend. They also had gluten free bread for my daughter!

Bridget Corry Morse

Nice people. Pizza tastes good. Gluten free crust very good .

Ali Chow Palm

Always friendly and delicious! Great gluten-free options (bread or wraps for sandwiches).

brit hansen

The food and coffee are delicious. Prices are great. Gluten free friendly, vegan and vegetarian friendly. Only taking a point off for no high chairs. I think we'd come a few times a week if they had them

J. D.

The food was yummy and the staff was so hospitable and nice. We had 14 people. 4 of us had strict gluten free needs. They were able to accommodate all of us. Excellent lunch! The views are great too. Highly recommend based on our experience!

Abby W

We loved this place! Steaks were excellent, service attentive, and the restaurant was beautiful with wide plank wood floors and rugs under each table, very cozy. My husband has celiac and they have a gluten free fryer, which was exciting! Would definitely return.

Kris Bjork

Love this place for breakfast. They have gluten free options and seem knowledgeable about it as well.
