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!

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.

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.

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!

Tracy Marshall

Gluten free available 😁

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.

Sarah Marie

So many amazing gluten free options!!

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.

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.

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.

Deb Hutchinson

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

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.

Ceara Crawford

Although not advertised, and probably tough to accomodate on a busier night, the staff worked with me to meet my dietary needs! I appreciate their hard work. If you are gluten free or have other food allergies, would recommend giving it a try. Pretty hipster for the locale, but typical new age brew pub feel. I managed to get pan fried cod and it was fantastic!

dean pratt

The one and possibly only place that has Gluten Free Beer ON TAP! Awesome 😎

Grant Maguire

For all you Celiacs or gluten free people out there! This is the spot. Had Chicken Pad Thia.. unbelievably delicious...done to perfection.

Michael O

Friendly and helpful. The fish and chips is gluten free and nut free. And the cod was very fresh. The fries are awesome. They have ice cream, soft and hard. Chocolates that are peanut and, Gluten free. After visiting Tablelands, this restaurant was a treat, they have a patio and the restaurant is on the water.

Melanie Kavanagh

Love Fionn's. Gluten free items as well.

Kim Hancock

Friendly staff, wide range of food choices on menu. Would be nice to have more gluten free options, but there are some!

Vanessa House

Sweet little cafe on a beautiful Oceanside drive. Lots of seating and an outdoor table option on a fine day. The menu has a good selection of appetizers, salads, burgers & wraps. The server said that a lot of the menu can be made gluten-free. We had the squid rings and they were some of the best I have tried around NL - the batter is light with a salty flavouring. The Spinach dip was meal size & the French fries delicious. The fried chicken had a different kind of coating, reminded me of shake and bake crumbs from years ago. Tasty just not a crunchy batter. Really good portion sizes. The bountiful cheesecake selection will bring me back in an instant. Oh, and don’t leave without a Homemade Flakey for later. A great spot that really is worth the drive.

Rhea Deshpande

This was such a memorable spot for us. The atmosphere was unlike any other. It was so charming inside especially at dinner time sunset on the water. There was live music from 6-8, really lovely. Enjoyed a good, hearty meal - great veggie and gluten free menu too! Favourites were the veggie lasagna, salmon dinner, and steamed pudding (to die for!). Our server Ashley was so awesome and lovely, remembered us from the night before. The waitresses really keep this place afloat, they manage a busy, bustling environment with grace and ease. Will be back next visit!

Chris Harding

Good food, they have gluten free options for those who are interested.

Scott Barter

The staff were friendly and helpful.....4 of us were gluten free and our waiter (of 16 years their) was great....he took super care we had gluten free delicious food!

Heather deLagran

Great service. Great food that can be celiac friendly. Oh cod! Try the cod.

Roxanne Freake

Went for supper..was great food...very good with gluten free food

Lee CH

Gluten friendly options available Food was fresh and bursting with flavour

Myles Vardy

My wife and I Enjoy the food the friendly service every time especially since there are gluten free options.

Doreen Critch

We love going to Jack Astor's. There's something for everyone from our picky eater, to our vegetarian to our celiac. Candace is the best but I might be biased!

Meghan Farrell

I have recently been diagnosed with celiac disease and Smuggler’s Cove was the first place I’d gone. The restaurant was incredibly well versed, and catered to my needs, even though we dined later in the evening, at a time when the menu options were limited. They went above and beyond to make sure I had a lovely experience. As an added bonus, we spent the night in one of the bunkhouses on sight. It was so cozy and relaxing and clean and tidy! Highly recommend!

Danielle Bishop

Always a wonderful place to eat and celebrate special occasions with family and friends. The food was delicious as always. The staff were exceptional! Being the mother of a child with a tree nut allergy it is scary going to some restaurants that either are unaware or nonchalant about allergies. The chef took time to speak to us about the various dishes and he checked on the waffle batter which is a mix that was not safe. Then dessert time another lovely lady took well care of my daughter with tree nut allergy and my aunt with Celiac- gluten allergy. They were very accommodating. Highly recommend and the new owner is sweet! It was also beautifully decorated for Christmas!

Katie Luther

New favourite gluten free restaurant 😍 Calamari was delicious!

Mike L

Lovely restaurant with a delicious gluten-free burger (the Amelia burger, with a GF bun) and the best bacon-wrapped scallops (also gluten free) I've ever had. The server (Kim) was very helpful and seemed knowledgeable about celiac and concerns about the potential risk of cross-contamination with wheat flour. Strongly recommended! 👍👍🍔 🤤

Karina Lucio

Nice place with gluten wise options.

Cory short

100% the best food on this island!! The only issue I have is deciding what I want! I mean.. I love the OG burger, but then there's a limited special on! Screw it and order it all! Never have I had anything so good!. As a added bonus.. a dedicated fryer and gluten-free available! A rare thing indeed. Always above and beyond! Love you guys.

Everdina Carter

4 adults, and we all enjoyed our meals. I had the honey mustard chicken wrap which I wish I had more of. My mom finished her pea soup (it's rare of her to ever finish a meal), my dad enjoyed the grilled cheese and my aunt had the club wrap without the wrap which she found delicious. Because she's gluten free she asked for it without the wrap and they still presented it very nicely rather than just tossing the ingredients on a plate. We're very happy and would recommend it to anyone checking out the lighthouse in Bonavista.

Miriam MacLeod (Mimi)

Gluten-free fish and chips. Cooked in a dedicated fryer. And the fish is crisp and delicious. The rice flour pushes away the moisture and creates a very tasty piece of fish. The serving size was right, not a mountain of fries on a monster slab of fish. They respect food quality and their patrons. Local cider on tap. We shall return!

Erin McNeill

Definitely not the experience we were expecting. It has been awhile since we were at Saltwater - we were last there in 2013 at the old location and it was excellent. It was a very different experience this time. Service was extremely slow, especially given that there were only a few other tables that were occupied. Just over an hour before we got the one appetizer that we shared between 2 of us. Our mains left a lot to be desired. The cod was very undercooked and the salmon was just “fine”. This was after witnessing multiple dishes going to wrong tables over and over, and then when ours finally arrived the server announced our gluten free salmon dish (we are not gluten free). The whole evening felt very chaotic and disorganized even though it did not seem busy at all. Our server was very kind and apologetic, she did it take the cod off of our bill. Overall, it was very disappointing and hopefully just a very “off” night for the staff/restaurant.

A friend and I stayed in the rooms upstairs, and after a long day of traveling from Vancouver, decided to head down to the bar after dropping stuff off in our room. I'm so glad we did! I had potato skins and the chicken wings. They were very tasty, and Gluten-free! I also had a fair amount of wine. :D The man behind the bar that night was attentive and kind (I think he even laughed at one of my jokes= very kind). As he grew up in the area, he also had a lot of fantastic recommendations. Some words about Blair: "Not only is Blair really smart, but he's also super kind and generous. I've heard him referred to as 'saintly' and I wouldn't argue." I would suggest trying whatever drink/cocktail special they have when you're there. They're concoction wizards! For a few other nights, we had Ian serving us. He was also kind and attentive, and withstood friendly roasting quite well. I looked forward to our evenings downstairs at Magnum & Steins. Other staff members, and especially the manager, Kelly, really made us feel like family. It was so lovely, and they're a major part of why I can't wait to head back to St. John's. I could probably write a novel, but I'll settle for this short story. ❤️
