I have Celiac disease and can pretty much never get ice cream anywhere. I was thrilled when the staff here were super understanding, told me which flavours were GF, and served mine with a fresh scoop from a fresh container in the back! Highly recommend, and thanks so much for being accommodating. (For other Celiacs: they mentioned that the gluten-free cone is only gluten-friendly and may be cross-contaminated, so definitely get a cup).

The Bare Naked Lady is the most perfectly deconstructed sandwich!! Not going to lie, as someone who requires gluten free, I am usually pretty particular about a sandwich involving bread and being able to hold it. When I learned there is no gluten free bread option, but there is an option, I went for it because I wanted all the Buzzy's flavours even if I couldn't hold it as a sandwich. So good! The best deconstructed sandwich I've ever had!

NOT great for people who are Celiac if looking for something to eat. Our server was clear that it would be very risky if Celiac due to the potential in the kitchen for cross-contamination. Very sad as we drove from Ganges to eat there, thinking there were a number of GF options (per the reviews and menu) - had no other food options in the area before taking the ferry back to Victoria. HOWEVER, the London Fog and Salt Spring Cider was very good and it was a nice place to be to wait for the ferry. We had a table next to the window which had a lovely view. Appreciated the honesty of our server.

Loved it. We visited in June 2024 because they have a gluten-free option I could eat. Big portions, lots of fries and great coleslaw. It's a small rustic place but you're right on the water's edge.

Very nice and cozy restaurant. They provide many gluten-free options such as noodles and rice flour for their fried foods (like calamari-yum!). They make a delicious chowder and their crab cakes are thick and hearty. Very family friendly.

We had a delicious lunch here today. Lovely place, tastefully done out, with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff were super friendly and the food was delicious. We had a few of the sushi rolls plates - all were beautifully done and tasted fantastic. Great for gluten free diners too. Recommend! 😋

Exceptional dining experience. We had a feast (2 person), two starters and a GIANT dessert. We had to take food home - it was a real feast! Gluten Free/Vegetarian/Pescatarian friendly. Looked like they could offer vegan as well. Very happy to have this place on Salt Spring.
