Top 8 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Delight in Port Jefferson

Brad Arrington

My wife and I celebrated our son’s graduation from high school with our family at Fifth Season. All we can say is wow and thank you. Katie Dombroski, their hostess, was amazing to work with. She took care of everything - helping my wife pick out the menu (she has 3 family members with celiac disease) to working with Rolling Pin Bakery in Setauket to make a gluten free cake that everyone enjoyed immensely. Katie checked on our party multiple times to make sure we were happy. Also a shout out to our waiter Jason who ran his tail off getting all of the kids their Shirley Temple orders - which of course was never ordered at the same time. 😂 They were super accommodating on the fly, too. When 5 of our guests were delayed because the ferry broke down and they had to drive around from CT, Jason and staff made sure their orders were ready right when they arrived. And they got us out on time to see the fireworks off Port Jeff. We didn’t take pictures but if you go I highly recommend the chicken, filet mignon and the salmon. Thank you Fifth Season!!

This is a $31 vegan pizza. I’m not gluten free but they made it gluten free which was also odd but ok. Anyways this doesn’t look anything like a New York style pizza one would expect or look at their other food photos. The staff was nice, the ambience was nice, looking at the menu prices you would expect high quality food but honestly based on how dry and over priced it was I would just buy a Daiya pizza from the store and heat it myself. I did call the restaurant to communicate my disappointment and I was compensated with $10 off my next visit which isn’t helpful at all because I like a lot of other folks was visiting out of town.

Absolutely wonderful experience. Lovely little cafe on a corner, right down by the marina. From the moment we arrived, we knew it would be good, probably because our server, Kai, was so friendly and helpful. My wife has a severe gluten allergy, but Kai assured us that everything on the menu could be made gluten free! We both had the egg and avocado on focaccia sandwich and it was just out of this world. I had the pistachio latte which was fantastic. And my wife had a caramel latte which was amazing as well. We sat outside and enjoyed the morning chatting and taking in the fresh air and sunshine. Could not have been a nicer experience.

Despite dropping a jar of pickle juice on the floor as I stood there making my order, and not confirming gluten free (so they had to remake it), the staff responded patiently (serving me the best crepe ever). And the rice pudding - perfecto. I'm definitely returning, as the price is right, and the menu is varied. Sit and relax or take out. Enjoy!

We love Southdown. It's our go to lunch date spot. I literally crave their grilled chicken sandwich on gluten free bread. My husband ordered the pesto avocado grilled cheese every time we go. Maple spice latte is my absolute favorite cup of coffee around.

A lovely place to have lunch or dinner. A variety of foods on the menu including gluten free food. It is a good place for a relaxing dinner with friends. Everything is seasoned perfectly. Delicious deserts too!

Our family had a wonderful time at Ferryman Grille, and we're especially grateful for the outstanding service provided by Jules, our waitress. She ensured that our dining experience was enjoyable for everyone, including our celiac son. Chef Pablo's culinary expertise shone through in every dish, and we were thrilled that our son could enjoy a delicious, gluten-free meal without any worries. We'll definitely be returning for more memorable family moments and delightful meals at Ferryman Grille.
