Jana Elias

Cute little cabin along the highway. Everything is there and you pay for things on your own (camera monitored). Everything is fresh and delicious and lots of choice. All gluten free!

Danny Vanderbyl

Absolutely some of the most delicious food I had in my life! I had the Mexican street tacos, which was not a big portion, but the flavour was immense. I travel a lot and this place is outstanding, I will be back bringing 10 friends! 🤩🤩🤩 I only wished I had eaten here before so many times! Gluten-free by default and lots of dairy-free options. I even had room for delicious gluten-free dairy-free fried plantain for dessert with agave syrup subbed for the chocolate and whip. Yummy!! 😋 No wonder they won so many awards!

Delicious and unique ice cream flavors with gluten free and vegan options! The staff is friendly and helpful, especially with allergen info. Can't wait to try more flavors in the future!

Jim O'Grady

What a great find! We stumbled upon Mudsharks Coffee Bar while looking for a healthy lunch with vegan and gluten-free options — and it delivered. The Glory Bowl was packed with flavor, the homemade soup was comforting and delicious, and the gluten-free lemon poppyseed loaf was the perfect finish. So many fresh, wholesome choices. Friendly staff and a relaxed vibe. Highly recommend!

Bria Boltakke

Lots of gluten free options! Very yummy food and lattes!

It's very trendy. I had the Angela Burger with brie. Wouldn't order it again, but it was very filling, and the beef patty was perfect. The appetizers were incredible. Had little falafel balls and loved them. The staff are amazing and it's much bigger inside than you'd expect. Very poor area for parking but a nice place to pop into if you're walking around town. The bartender was very skilled. There are plenty of gluten-free options. Uncertain if there's accessible facilities, but I know the washroom I used required 2 steps to reach. The main dining area is accessible. A walker and a cane managed well. Would be wheelchair friendly.

Had the GF donuts. Best I've had in 25 years of eating gluten-free. Jay went above and beyond, made me a bulletproof coffee even though they didn't have it on the menu. One very happy customer. Couldn't recommend Bigfoot Donuts enough. You won't be dissatisfied. Even the drip coffee is superb 👌

Sara Turner

I love so much about this place, the people and the food. I frequent it often. Unfortunately they’ve recently changed the gluten free noodles and the result…not so good (mind you I got them to go. Maybe they hold up better if you eat them right away. By the time I got home to eat 10 minutes after pick up, the noddles broke apart into small pieces and into clumps loosing the noodley texture but also the flavour wasn’t there like it was before. I’m lucky that I’m not strictly GF so I will still go back for the odd bowl of much loved gluten filled ramen. Thought it might be worthy feedback to share from a loyal customer. Otherwise, keep doing what you’re doing!

Jennifer Horlacher

The best value for the price in the area. My fish and chips were fresh and delicious. Everyone else was happy with their meals.and gluten free options are labeled now.

Emily Orriss

Great gluten friendly burritos loaded with goodness.

Tracy Pigeon

Sydnie McCrea

Delicous eggs benny, love all of the gluten free options!! Food was a little cold so that was disappointing, but friendly service made up for it. 🤗💞

Fei B

Forgot to take photos (oops) but we got their BBQ duck rice noodles, BBQ duck bento, house rolls, and negitoro rolls. Took about 30 mins to get our takeout order and the person helping us was very knowledgeable. Yummy food! A lot of selection for gluten free meals as well and gluten free soy sauce too:)

Richelle Titus

This place is amazing! The best gyro I’ve had in a very long time. They have great rice wraps if you are gluten free so you can still enjoy this authentic Greek food without feeling like you are missing out. We went through the drive-thru and the convenience was awesome! They even gave our dogs some left over meat. This place is a new favourite…for us AND the dogs!

Laco

Incredible food, the GF calamari was the best I've ever had. I appreciate businesses so much when they have so many options for us with celiac! Thank you to the chef and to the wonderful server we had.

Megan White

Excellent market with tons of vegan/gluten free/organic/healthy options. Good beauty/vitamins section too.

Brooke Burtch

Happy about the vegan gluten free options they have. There organic juice and cyanne sauce goes really good with your pizza 😊

Kimberly Fisher

The food was amazing. My partner and I have dietary restrictions and the kitchen did a great job accommodating us with gluten-free options. We sat on the back patio in the evening and enjoyed the cozy atmosphere with a glass of wine and gluten-free Whistler Forager lager. Can't wait to come back to Courtenay for more!

Nicole H

We try to come here almost every with for lunch and each time we have the same young lady who is absolutely amazing. She always remembers to bring us gluten free soy. The food is always excellent.

Karen Comer

Loved the coffee (dark or medium espresso option) and treat options (vegan and gluten-free options rocked). Great atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Danielle Crawford

Love! I’m a coffee lover and a bit of a coffee snob. This coffee was soooooooo delicious. I also don’t consume gluten or dairy, and they had milk alternatives as well as food options (I had a freshly made trail mix bar that was delicious!). The vibe in the cafe was great as well.

Bernadine Courage

Staff are so kind! Pizza is great! I'm personly gluten free so we got the cauliflower crust. Best one I have ever tasted! ❤️ lots of vegan dairy free gluten free options and our server was awesome! One hundred percent recommend this place 👌👏🙌!

Marty Douglas

No gluten free bread.

Kevin Jühlke

Gluten-free tacos! I went for the Box with lamb that came for ~20$ and was fully satisfied - wonderful spices, great looks and the guacamole was bang on.

Gloria Tremblay

Ian “Fireball” F

Gluten free crust was very good. The service was excellent. Staff were very friendly.

Marius Scurtescu

Great coffee. Good sandwiches, even gluten free english muffin. Nice cozy space.

Kooper2080

Their gluten free lasagna was for my wife’s diet needs and perfect for my taste buds. Also the lady I talked to was very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about her creations.

Valentina Vincenti

If I could give our visit more stars I would. By far the best meal I’ve had in my life. Service is impeccable, food is incredible, and it felt cozy. They even closed the kitchen later for us as we came in right at 8! I’m celiac, and they accommodated my needs perfectly. My husband had the tortellini, and said it was 10/10. I will be a regular for sure!!

Maureen Makohin

I had a wheat free gluten free brownie. It was amazing!! The tea was delicious!! Definitely going back soon.

Keith Goosen

Always a pleasant experience and super accommodating to my Celiac dietary needs. They cook my breakfast in a separate pan. Thank you 🙏

Keith Goosen

So glad for the gluten free pizza!

Zack Clark

Burgers are awesome. Hardy, meaty, full of toppings. The staff is friendly. Fair price for kids meal, portions are decent size.. It replaced our old regular dinner spot Triple O's. Gluten free options are nice if you need that.

Carrie Pc

Gluten free options! :D

Meaghan Touchie

Delicious regular and gluten free crusts! Excellent salads

Mel NB

Come for great beers and food too! The kitchen menu is excellent - a good mix of snacks and mains to go with your booze. Includes a healthier selection of salads, bowls and options for gluten free etc. We had the special nitro stout donuts and they were amazing!

Em M

Super friendly and prompt service. They do well with celiac and it's refreshing to be able to explore a menu rather than be limited to just a few options.

Beverley Derby

Two of us had very different meals there at dinnertime. We both enjoyed our choices. The gluten free brownie was a generous portion, delicious and easily shared for two!

Alana Cober

Love everything Owynn has to offer in the food truck as a celiac and lactose intolerant person! Been loving her burgers and Mac and cheese, the buns are so soft for gluten free! Can get my caffeine fix there with nice coffee which is an added bonus. Will be back to try all of the gf and vegan options

Jodene Stober

It is very difficult for me to be able to find places to eat as I am Celiac. They provide gluten free options, make sure everything is changed so there isn't contamination. I was able to eat out! The food was amazing too!

Sumit Pal

I recently had the pleasure of trying Papa John's Gluten-Free Pizza, and I am beyond impressed with my dining experience. As someone with gluten sensitivity, finding a pizza place that caters to my dietary needs without compromising on taste is a rare gem, and Papa John's exceeded my expectations in every way.I highly recommend Papa John's Gluten-Free Pizza to anyone seeking a delicious, gluten-free dining option, kudos to Manpreet for always making me best and delicious Pizza.

Chuck Thompson

Beautiful facility. Old world grandeur. Great service, good food, bright lounge with very high ceilings, tall windows, Canadian logging history on display. Chairs are a little tired on seat cushion, but don't let that keep you away. Pleased they have vegetarian and gluten free options. Nicely done.

Lisa H

Omg amazing! The gluten free prawn and scallop taco was great! A little bit of sweet and a little bit of heat makes for a delicious taco!

Jason McLeod

They're super friendly,and very accommodating with food allergies(gluten). Great place to get away and without going anywhere.

Custom Charger

Service was excellent and food was fantastic. My son and daughter enjoyed everything and they were able to make something enjoyable even though my son can't have gluten. Awesome experience.

Lee Mckeown

What a lovely treat to find this place. The location was perfect and the decor inside was warm and cozy. I am a celiac and there was SO many amazing food choices (that weren't just salad) for anyone who is allergic to gluten/wheat. Everyone's food look so good and every plate went back to the kitchen empty. Looking forward to going back and trying the rest of the menu
