Has gluten free fish and chips! YUM! Sam was a great server!

Lindsay MacDonald

As a vegetarian visiting St. John's I was bit concerned about food selections for myself but Nook and Cannery was such a delight. The vibes were immaculate and the food was incredible. They offer many ways to adjust meals to suit vegetarians, vegans and gluten-free folks. My favourite meal during my trip!

Erin Furlong

I have Celiac and this place has an incredible number of options for gluten free. And so so delicious. Service was friendly and welcoming. My kids loved it as well

Mike L

A MUST for anyone needing gluten-free options. With a dedicated gluten free deep fryer, we ordered GF seafood platter (with the best scallops and shrimp I've ever eaten in my life), GF fish and chips for my daughter (a huge piece of cod!), and started with GF deep fried calamari as well as an order of possibly the only GF crispy cod tongues in the province if not the country! With all of that plus a GF beer that I'd never tried before, Port Rexton Raspberry Sour (something that did not sound tempting but it was actually delicious, more beer-y than fruity), I'm surprised my family didn't have to roll me all the way home! STRONGLY recommended! 👍👍 But make sure you call to make reservations... We got turned away the first time we tried to go. 🤷‍♂️

Daniel Bennett

Top notch baked goods! It's just a bonus they are gluten free. Would highly recommend.

Sarah Rossy

Absolute dream of a restaurant with many gluten free options. The owner is extremely kind and sweet. Went 3 times in a week it was so delicious!

Tom Jakop

Best Gluten Free Pizza in Canada! I've been to nearly every province in Canada and this was by far the most unique pizza, good size for GF, bbq sauce base, chicken with hot honey sauce! Great atmosphere, friendly service.

Angela Ewald

Wonderful meal! So glad we picked this restaurant. Lots of yummy gluten free options!

Madison Brooks

The cutest coffee shop with delightful baked goods and lovely staff! Great gluten free panini and lentil chili, cannot recommend the salted caramel brownie (gf) highly enough! Such a gem of a cafe to find.

Deanna Yaran

great food and drinks! kyle was super helpful with my husbands gluten allergy

Jonathan Paul

Mitch was our server and he was amazing! Great recommendations and just an all around nice guy. Food here is amazing. If you’re gluten free they have one of the best gluten free crusts around. Def come here. Prices are more than fair.

Satellite Falling

We had a great experience visiting this brewery. A wonderful cool yet cozy environment on a rainy evening. Chip Truck dining was incredible and I love their gluten free offerings. I am definitely placing a mail order to get some to Ontario.

Titka Seddighi

Lovely quient Cafe with a nice patio. A perfect stop on your way up or down from a hike. Had a delicious gluten-free brownie and an ice tea here.

Tracy Marshall

Gluten free available 😁

Marianne Bouchard-Landry

Everything is perfect there ! As I have no home, finding a place that feels welcoming and where I can use a good wifi is precious and I felt good working all day there, for few days actually. People that work there are awesome, pretty good coffee/chai latte/caramel macchiato and they also had gluten-free option (only the bread for sandwiches but they have plenty of choice and the one I had was delicious). I recommend 100%

CC Pye

Such a quaint and quiet restaurant. Beautiful, calming decor. Relaxing atmosphere. Wonderful service from the staff, easy to follow direction for ordering. Tasty food, I had the gluten free pad Thai (indeed spicy friendly because I cannot tolerate spice and this dish was perfect). Absolutely would recommend!

Barbara Gilbert

I have celiac disease and asked about gluten free options on the menu. I was told I could have a gluten-free bun with my burger. I asked if the soup of the day was gluten-free, the wait staff went to check and told me that it was. I ordered the soup and a gluten-free burger. When the food arrived, there was a bun alongside my soup. I asked if the bun was gluten-free. The waiter went to the kitchen to check and came back and told me it was not. They took the bun away. I was not offered a gluten-free bun. A few minutes later, I was several bites into my burger when the waiter returned to tell me there had been a mistake, and the burger bun was not gluten-free. They took the burger away. I was not offered a replacement burger. The manager came to our table to apologize for the error. I explained that this would make me very ill, within about an hour. A few moments later she returned with the chef, who also apologized. They told me took my information and told me they would go over what happened with their staff to make sure it didn’t happen again. They took my phone number and said they would call me to check on me the following day, and the day after that. They never called. This is serious. Eating gluten not only makes people with celiac disease very sick, it also causes permanent intestinal damage.

Lauren Kelly

I had a great gluten free sandwich here! The gf bread is made off-site and they have a separate toaster and mayo for the sandwiches. Obviously they bake regular bread here so the risk for a Celiac isn’t zero but I enjoyed my sandwich very much and the man at the counter was so helpful and patient with my questions!

Lauren P

As a celiac, I get excited about deep-fried things that I can have. The gluten-free Salt-n-vinegar fish n chips were outstanding! I 100% recommend. And the Fries were cooked to perfection. I was very happy with this meal. (I can't recall, so I'm not sure if they have a dedicated fryer. I tend to have mild to unnoticeable reactions to shared fryers though. Or maybe I'm just stubborn.) I also wanted to try the iceberg cider that they brew there, but unfortunately they were all out. (I eventually found one can at a liquor store, and it was good.) They were fairly busy, so the service was alright, but that's to be expected.

Maggie Flinn

My partner and I ate here once during our stay. I am celiac and need gluten free options which they had on the menu!!! Great experience and so lucky to find GF options even in a small town. We will be back!

Michael O

Service was a little slow but they were pretty busy with other families and had to deal with our gluten and peanut allergies.

Lorie Mullen

This place is delightful! Highly recommend it!! Super clean, food was amazing and there were gluten free optio s for my daughter, the server was so pleasant and attentive and I love how the building is a mix of original structure and new. The gallery and gift shop on the 2nd floor was an added pleasure.

Brittany Cunningham

I go here everytime I'm in town, which is a couple times a month for work, and I've never had a bad drink here. There's a huge variety of drinks hot and cold and they always have interesting seasonal drinks as well. I always get a sandwich with a gluten free bun when I'm here, my favourites are the pesto chicken and the cran-apple chicken sandwiches, the gluten free bun is very good, and doesn't fall apart like other gf breads tend to.

Mike L

Had breakfast here twice during our week in St. John's, and it was worth it! So many options, and the fact that they can serve most options gluten-free (i.e. on a gluten-free bagel) was great. Unfortunately, they do not have a dedicated deep-fryer, so I wasn't able to get any of the unhealthy stuff that everyone else had, but that's okay...I appreciated the fruit substitution for the hash browns!

Orla Hegarty

I do enjoy the deli environment but the layout here is absymal and it's never straightforward to order deli items and or pay for them. The gluten free rice Kaiser is decent but a bit crumbly so plan accordingly. Dining in at a table is very pleasant if available. My favourite sandwich is the curry chicken salad. Get the olives, carrots and pickles on the side. The modest selection of cheeses is decadent. I look forward to bringing a wedge or two home. Do not visit this place if you are in a rush. But overall, it is worth the bit of chaos.

Sarah Marie

So many amazing gluten free options!!

Jon Q

The Irish Loop Coffee House has a surprisingly large food menu with reasonably priced and tasty items. We went there for coffee and tea, but I also had an order of home fries. The fries were really great! There are options for those who are gluten free and vegetarian. I didn't see any vegan only dishes, but I think they'd be able to accommodate people looking for a plant-based dish. The service was quick and friendly, which is always appreciated. The atmosphere and decor is retro diner themed, which was a cool surprise. I definitely recommend The Irish Loop Coffee House when driving route 10 through the area.

Evelyne Allard

I haven’t had that good of a ramen in a while! The veggies were fresh, the miso broth (which they make themselves!) super tasty, the portion was generous... AND they have gluten-free noodles folks!!! 🤩 Don’t know about you, but I’ll definitely visit this place again!

Deb Hutchinson

Liked that gluten-free choices were available and clearly marked on menu. Waiter was friendly and very professional. Nice view.

Katie Mark

Full gluten free menu, very knowledgeable

Maggie Flinn

My partner and I went twice on our stay. I am Celiac and need Gluten free foods and the staff were very knowledgeable and lots of options for me including gluten free bread which I believe was homemade. Delicious! Will be back if in the area.

Angela Ewald

Great spot for supper. Had PB&J burger with gluten free bun and a pear & prosciutto side salad. Both were amazing!

Andrea O'Brien

This was my first time trying Vietnamese food. It was delicious. I started with the Bao and loved it. The dough was soft and the middle was bursting with flavour. I loved the spices used. I ordered the lemongrass chicken bowl. It was wonderfully light and fresh. The service was good. She was attentive and helpful! She checked about allergies when I ordered a dish that included peanuts. She told us that the majority of the menu is gluten free which is really cool. The decor is pretty kitschy but it's full of colour. There are several art pieces made from rice that are interesting to see.

Annie Burton

We had an amazing experience. Waitress was attentive, had detail oriented and provided exceptional customer service. Our meal was absolutely delicious and well put together. They successfully accommodated my Celiac requirements, very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend a visit here!

Sonja Heidler

Located close to the harbour allowing for a nice view, this restaurant serves nice food. They offer vegetarian options and Gluten-free ones (GF on request). You won't have to wait long for your food and get a free miso soup while waiting. It's a nice place to eat while exploring St. John's.

Nick Lefrancois

Eating at this restaurant was the best dining experience I've had in St John's. The food is good, the price is good, and the service was exceptional. Very highly recommend for gluten free eaters.

Tanya Kerr

Our experience was absolutely magical. The weather, view, drinks on the deck, menu choices, decor, wonderful server, ability to accommodate gluten free, food presentation and taste, celebration cards…I could go on. We had an absolutely amazing evening that we will not soon forget.

Jeff Riddall

Great food and beer. Especially enjoyed tuna tartar and gluten free codfish tacos. Yup, gluten free. The Coffee Blonde was very good. The only downsides were the service was a little slow and they ran outta oysters.

M Eagan

Excellent food and warm, cozy atmosphere. Offered gluten free options.

Janet

Breakfast was great! They had gluten free toast available for my allergies.

Antonia Morgan

Lots of variety and decent prices. Even had gluten free and sugar free options

Lizanne Hanks

Blue on Water Restaurant I visited Blue on my birthday and was treated to one of the finest meals I've had in years. It's rare for an entire meal to be excellent, but this was! The appetizers (Scallops, arancini, beet and arugula salad) were all exceptional - thoughtfully plated, sumptuous and a perfect balance of flavours. The mains (duck, chicken and salmon) were also delicious: seared or crusted on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. Accompanying seasonal veg were also toothsome and simply prepared. Desserts (gluten free almond cake and a chocolate entremet) were to-die-for and I don't even eat dessert usually. Pretty as a picture and layered with complementary elements. Our server, Lyndon, and manager Emily provided stand-out service making our evening even more special.

Michael O

Pizza is awesome! The kids' kitty cat and dog shaped pizza is fun. The personal size pizza is plentiful and the gluten free garlic sticks are amazing.

Cathy Warren

If you have a gluten sensitivity, intolerance or allergy this is not a place to eat at. On Sept 27 2024 I went there with my sister for lunch. I advised the waitress Lori, that I have a gluten allergy. I ordered a gluten free Caesar salad and fries which were cooked in a dedicated fryer for just fry’s. When our order came out she brought the fries and advised the chef put croutons on the salad in error and is in the process of doing a new one. About five minutes later the salad came out. I was eating away at the salad and when I was about have way through I found 3 croutons. I thought I was going to get sick in my seat when I found them. I can’t believe the chef did not make a new salad he just tried to pick out the croutons and sent it out for me to eat knowing full well it would make me sick as a dog for days. Our waitress was shocked when we showed her the croutons on the plate with my salad. She had no idea the chef did that. If you have a gluten sensitivity/ allergy ect this is not a place you should ever eat at. Obviously the chef has no understanding of gluten and how it works on someone with a gluten allergy. I was so upset and sick for days….

Griffin Sheldon

Excellent food and a very generous wait staff. Was greeted immediately upon entering and seated. Menu has lots to choose from, and the meals themselves are generous in portion sizes while not breaking the bank. Meals tasted very fresh. The combo specials are especially bang for your buck. Pros: very yummy food, average waittimes, and very friendly staff for a good cost. Cons: restaurant was a little cold at times, minimal parking, and I wish the menu showed what items were gluten free. I will mention that the staff were especially good at offering GF food, they even subbed my partners eggroll for fried tofu and gave more lemon chicken as a substitute for chicken balls, all at no additional cost. Will definitely be coming back!

Christine

A local gem! Fresh food, delicious! Added bonus, usually gluten free options available. Excellent coffee and treats. Our favourite lunchtime spot.

B Hall

We are both vegan, and my partner is allergic to gluten, so were quite happy to find this place while travelling Newfoundland. The food was very good and we will seek it out next time we are in Gander.

Malcolm Hugh Pilgrim

Very clean and friendly staff 😁 I love the gluten free vegetables 🥑🍅🥬🌶

Quinton Pryce

My wife & I stayed in the area for a few days on our honeymoon & this was absolutely the highlight. Their gluten-free fish cakes were a highlight for me (best I ever had) & the toutons were my wife's. Cheers to Dawn, Kim & Kim for making such a warm environment & having a great chat with us.
