Top 5 Gluten-Free Brunch Spots to Delight in Emerald Isle

Dana Cea

Stopped by after a couple of hours on the beach the Saturday after July 4th. There was a wait to sit outside but no wait for inside. Several minutes went by before our server came by to acknowledge us. However, they were super helpful in avoiding gluten (fried foods may be cross contaminated) and said yes to pretty much anything we asked that was not exactly on the menu. I wanted my spouse to try the grilled sound shrimp, and they came out as an appetizer. The shrimp were okay but might have been overcooked? We also got the Gaff (mahi sandwich) on a gluten free bun with Cole slaw, and the citrus tuna salad with a side of fries. Our fish were cooked perfectly, and the flavors were great—especially the house made Cajun tartar sauce with a kick and citrus vinaigrette. We did not get any dessert because they all had dairy. Our server would go missing at times but was overall nice and friendly. The bathrooms are gendered and multi stall. They were clean and appeared to have plenty of room for mobility devices. The interior decorations were fun, including some awards for fishing tournaments. Overall we had a great experience and will likely be back.

Long wait, service was bad, food was cold. Took forever to even get a few hushpuppies. Had trouble getting silverware. Got the pot roast special but it would have been nice to at least warm it. Claims gluten-free options but few selections for my wife.
