Top 21 Gluten-Free Spots with Outdoor Seating to Enjoy in Dartmouth

It really breaks my heart to be leaving this 1 star review. Evans is usually incredible, with the best fish and chips in town. HOWEVER, last time we ordered from them the fish had gone bad. We called to let them know, and the person on the phone assured us that he had taken down our information and that our next order of the same dishes would be free. Today when we placed our order, we were told that they had no record of that conversation, and that at most they could comp us one of the dishes. We pushed back, saying that it's not our fault that their co-worker didn't properly note our information (and they also noted that they'd just changed their system over, so it might have gotten lost in the shuffle). In the end, we were left to pay for bad fish last month with no compensation from the restaurant. We're all for supporting a great local business, so this situation sucks. We order from Evan's every month and have easily spent thousands there over the past five years. It's a shame to have to find another gluten free fish and chips place now.

Having Celiac and travelling is so hard. The Wooden Monkey has been perfect!!! Thank you ❤️

Oh my. Such a wonderful experience. I despise being gluten-free and find it embarrassing to have to ask for options. Cassandra was so accommodating, and in short order, the manager was at the table, explaining things to me. The result was fantastic food. It was our wedding anniversary as well as my husband's birthday. So happy we chose to celebrate there. Thank you so very much. All of you. Oh, and the jalapeño margaritas? An absolute must have!!

Really great food, also a bonus that everything is fresh. Friendly staff and tons of options for food, you even have the choice for gluten free. The only thing was that the atmosphere seemed a bit dated and maybe could have been a bit cleaner, but all in a good place to check out if you’re in the area.

So. Many. Gluten-free. Options. I was overwhelmed by choices. Everything was delicious. Dolmades were amazing.

I absolutely love the crobster roll from the Canteen. The seafood tastes really fresh and every time I've been there, the servers have been friendly and nice. I've ordered the crobster roll both with the regular bread and the gluten free bun - and I feel like less seafood is given in the gluten free bun (it's a hamburger bun instead of bread slice). Overall, I'd love to come back next time I'm in Dartmouth and I would advise making a reservation beforehand as it's usually quite busy.

Delicious crepes, great selection, friendly staff. Also gluten free are available. My favourite is lemon sugar. Highly recommend.

Excellent food! Some gluten free options. Once they made pasta for me with a box of unopened GF noodles, and it was one of the best pastas I've ever eaten. (And I used to work fine dining and gourmet catering in Toronto!) But they told me once only, because of "sanitary" reasons. I was disappointed with this. I can understand if I brought in raw meat or fish, but dry pasta in a box does not pose any sanitary issues at all. Anyhow, the staff are good and friendly, it's kind of like "Cheers" (the old tv sitcom). Worst is that the walls and ceilings are square and reflective, so it is REALLY LOUD when full. Great place great food. But please, have a couple boxes of GF noodles on hand!

We went to Upstreet for dinner. Had one of the platters and it was amazing. The brisket is to die for. I would go back just for the brisket. Also great gluten free options. Was very happy to see that on the menu.

Natalie LeBlanc

The constantly rotating tap makes it worth coming back over and over for great local beer. Only thing that can make the beer better is the burgers to go with! Their gluten free buns are actually good, too.

Morgan Miller

The owner and the staff are so genuine and happy to see you, it makes for such a wonderful sippin’ or shoppin’ experience. Such unique gifts, incredibly delicious coffee and gluten free goodies for us Celiacs! If you haven’t been in, do yourself a favour and go! Large patio in the back is perfect for the Summer season!

Ate dinner here on the Sunday of labour day weekend. We were a party of 6 and had an early reservation. Our server Jenn (Jem) was not only an excellent server, she should also have her own comedy show. She was playful and hilarious. She made the experience a 10/10. Everyone’s food was also great. We had a variety of items and they were able to accommodate with gluten free, dairy free, and vegetarian options.

The signature haddock dish was absolutely perfect, would highly recommend. The server was very attentive and gave great recommendations, hence the haddock. They accommodated and made a gluten free version of the haddock for my grandmother who is celiac. Lots of tasty cocktails and beer as well.

Maya Serbu

I come here all the time, specifically for my favourite server rachel adderley, she’s always attentive, friendly and accommodating. I have celiac and she is always extremely helpful with information on all the gluten free option that they offer. Always a great experience!

Greg Chor

Awesome Gluten-free Curried Lamb Stew and Wednesday night trivial pursuit.

Fiona Baker

I absolutely love everything about USTA!! All the food is fresh and delicious! The staff are always very friendly and pay attention to my gluten-free needs. Lots on the Menu that is naturally gluten-free. I would highly recommend!!

Jesax Eight

Food is always so good and fresh. Servers are also very nice and the kitchen could accommodate some dishes for a celiac friend.

Lior Seidel

A wide variety of gluten-free options. Dedicated fryer

Sheila MacAskill

Love the tacos here! The owner is super friendly and they have a lot of gluten free options. I've eaten here twice now and I love it! Everything is made from scratch <3

Claudette Sampson

My husband and I went to Hardisty Brewing Company for a New Year’s Eve. I had the mead and my husband had the nonalcoholic hop water. We had two charcuterie boards, the dessert board and the other was build your own. I'm gluten free and there was a great selection of food and drink to choose from for gluten-free and non-alcoholic. Very yummy! The staff was informative and friendly.
