Not celiac safe. Cross contamination.

This was such an amazing experience! They were so willing with work with my celiac! They had so many gluten free options and the staff were so knowledgeable!! Definitely a repeat!!

Came during happy hour and got a seat on the outdoor rooftop area, great views of the city and water. While we waited (10 min) for our seat my husband was given a glass of complimentary bubbles. We had the burger, beer, frozen lemonade, and grilled chicken club (gluten free bun was great!). Our server Taylor was efficient and friendly!!

We had the pleasure of trying this new restaurant a few nights ago. I am coeliac and my kids are gluten intolerant. We placed an order for one piece, fish and chips to go. We of course, opted for the gluten-free, battered fish, and I was shocked to notice there wasn’t an added fee for gluten-free. I’m not sure if it was the manager or a staff member, but When I noted there wasn’t an extra fee, they looked at me and said you didn’t choose to be celiac. I honestly was blown away and instantly loved the place. As a celiac, I’m used to paying extra for gluten-free items so this was a nice surprise. They also exclaimed they have a dedicated gluten-free fryer, so the gluten-free fish and chips are coeliac safe. This time around, I only ordered for my two kids. They split a one piece fish and chips. They said it was the best they’ve ever had and the tartar sauce was amazing! I did taste the crust of the fish and honestly, I thought it was perfectly crispy and flavourful! I do want to add, when we arrived to pick up our order the, who I’m guessing was the manager at the time, hand delivered our order outside to us as I had my children and my dog. All around an amazing experience and will absolutely be back! I do have a side note because everything was so delicious. I am wondering if I can convince the chef or managers to add a deep fried tofu option for plant based eaters! I realize it is a seafood restaurant, but if there was, They would have coeliac plant based eaters flocking from afar!

I have celiac and this was by far one of my best restaurant experiences! The staff were very knowledgeable and even made sure to check that my drink was safe to have. The food was delicious as always. I’ve been to this location multiple times and I’ll definitely be back!

Although we were more recently at the Lynn Valley location (which was also great), we have had many good experiences at this location. A really big shoutout to Darcy (because even though he shared he is usually at the Upper Lonsdale location he was at the Lynn Valley location today). He was attentive and thoughtful regarding a gluten allergy and went a step beyond by providing the gluten free brownie dessert after a really lovely meal and shared how he knows it isn’t always easy to come across a nice gluten free dessert. It was such a wonderful and thoughtful detail that went a long way for us. These are moments that make a customer feel special and cared for - and unashamed despite dietary restrictions/allergies. I wish for everyone who is impacted by food allergies and restrictions to be treated with such kindness, respect, and in this case, additional generosity. Thank you, Darcy and Brown’s for a really wonderful experience.

White We came here for a quick lunch as we knew the food was reliable. They didn’t disappoint as we all gobbled up our food after a day of moving. We ordered the seafood fettuccine, beef dip & avocado impossible burger. The avocado burger was a nice change & wouldn’t hesitate to order it again. With all burgers you can choose to have it wrapped in lettuce instead of the bun. There’s gluten free past too. Service was decent considering they were busy & short staffed. Great experience!

Karen Oh

Great gluten free options and an amazing staff who are very aware of cross contamination.

Paul Taylor

As a local I go here frequently, there are not a lot of choices in Deep Cove and for sure we are lucky to have Arms Reach. Although it's not as busy in the winter its enough to make the atmosphere what it needs to be for a rainy winter night - cosy. It's not the cheapest option but you know your going to have a quality dining experience and a good time, every time and that is worth the price. I do occasionally get a bit bored of the menu, but that is because I'm there quite a bit and have gluten sensitivity - and the specials do help out with some extra variety. For sure worth a visit, book in the summer or expect an hour plus wait, due to its place by the ocean in the heart of Deepcove.

I am on the search for restaurants that offer GF anything. (I am not celiac). I was pleasantly surprised to see they had GF buns on offer for the burger ($3 up charge). With this up charge my expectations were high. When the burger arrived it looked unusual with white spots on the top, shriveled and flat. All for research I thought give it shot… it was horrible the bun was freezer burned, the beef in the burger was dry and bland, no sauce! thank goodness for ketchup that I added! I would say this was the worst burger ever! I let the waiter know it was horrible. His comment was I will let the “chef” know and then started to explain to me how buns get freezer burn! He missed one point it properly was at the bottom of the freezer for a VERY long time. If you can’t serve a good GF bun don’t offer it! The burger for $25 not worth the price every with out the GF. As I ate the beef only. I should have complained more but I did not A word to the chef/cook If it’s freezer burned don’t serve it!

Thomas Clemmer

We love the food here, and we come often. The menu isn't deep, but it's always tasty and as authentic as you will find in Canada. I did prefer their old chicken recipe to the current one. Gluten-free is available. The regular stools and tables are bit too low.

S McCarthy

Food was great and had new menu Thai Curry dish which was amazing. But for a celiac, staff acknowledged with expertise and chef was able to “adjust” menu item. Impressed

Nola

In my opinion, this is one of the best restaurants in their class. Great selection Celiac friendly(which means less pre made or pre bought!) Great service (will bake me fries!) Great atmosphere I always steer my friends here over their competitors

Christina Duncan

I’ve been to white spot many times in my life, but this experience was one of my favourites. We had a server named Gemma, she was fun and very sweet to my two sons. We recently discovered that one of my sons has a gluten allergy, and Gemma was very helpful in finding all the options for him, and reassuring she would let the kitchen know. Thank you for a wonderful Sunday brunch with my family.

Kitchen Star

Very nice bbq place with very friendly staff, accommodated all our gluten free needs.

Farhan Baig

Never had such great service!!! We told them this is our first time and they gave us lots of samples. Sweet or savory, something for everyone. Even gluten free cones!!

Mike M

Been here before and have been happy with their food and service. A bit pricier than other Sushi places but honestly not a problem. Gluten free options are available as well!

Betsy Hale

We ordered Uber from Burgoo whilst visiting North Vancouver. The Beef Burgundy was delicious and comforting after days of travel. The meat was tender and served on mashed potatoes. Since I am gluten free, this was a nice option. We ordered the donuts for dessert and they weren’t my cup of tea….too salty!

Deanne Nielsen

Great options for gluten free diets! Hopefully some gluten free beers come into rotation soon!

Olivia Lang

Hands down some of the best gluten free pizza in the Metro Vancouver! Such a squishy, buttery, chewy crust that it's hard to believe it's gluten free. The brussel sprout pizza is uniquely delicious. Definitely worth the drive to Deep Cove.

Kate Nugent

This is the 3rd location I’ve been to that doesn’t offer gluten free. Why have it on the menu?! Such a waste of time to drive to these locations and be disappointed. Not impressed and will not be returning. This has happened several times now and as someone who is limited to gluten free options, I will be letting others know of this. Do better.

Alyssa Burtt

So artful and delicious 😋 they have lots of gluten free options and gf tamari sauce. The service is almost too attentive — when you show up, 5 people behind the counter all turn and stare and offer you to sit down. The seating could be better, it’s a little squishy / intimate… but overall it’s my favourite sushi spot in north van!

Rebecca Martz

We loved our dinner here. I had the salmon plate, which was Gluten free. It was cooked to perfection and the potatoes with the mustard sauce were absolutely divine. My husband had the Canadian AAA steak; mouthwatering!! It was perfect for us that it was in the Bridge park, while it may have been more pricey for that reason, it was beyond convenient!

Hsieh Karen

We came for lunch with 2 young children, and one of my boys is allergic to gluten. The staff was very friendly to let us know that they could tailor some dishes to gluten-free. Although it took a while for the dishes to be served, we really enjoyed the dishes.My boys ate lots. We also got a scoop of strawberry Gelato to go.The gelato for sure was the icing on the cake! If we are around next time, definitely would like to try out other dishes. *Excuse for the first photo, cause my kids can't wait to dig in.

Darya Ostad

Sophia was our server and she was amazing! Like a fairy that comes to your table and gives you everything you need (: Food was great — not easy to find good gluten free pizza! I like the lighting for the atmosphere. It’s a cozy and intimate spot Will def visit again.

Catriona Convey

Great option for Gluten free. Only place in thr Quay.

Ava O’Loughlin

Amazing sushi. I ordered takeout…I am a celiac and they called me saying a part of my order wasn’t able to be made gluten free, they were very helpful to come up with a substitute.

Henry Friesen

Gluten-free options, so that's nice. That is where the nice ends... While I was sitting, waiting for my food, my friends joined me to wait with me with their food from another shop. Staff comes out and kicks them out. So, they stand on the sidewalk by the street, waiting for me to get my food. Staff comes out and says they cannot stand on the sidewalk. "We own the sidewalk, so you cannot stand there." Never mind the fact that my food took ten times longer than my friends' food, but now they cannot stand on a public space while I wait for my stuff? Also, never mind that my friends bought donuts here, can't mix and match, I suppose... kinda ridiculous. Rude policies. Basic food. Unfortunate vibe.

The Plant-Based Yogini

I love that I got a fully vegan experience with vegan gluten-free sausages , fries and rocket salad with an interesting crushed candied-walnut topping. We were very pleased with our attentive and kind host Shayan. Do yourself a favor and hit this joint today. You will be well-taken care of. Now isn’t that what we all want?

Cael Tompai

Gluten free options. Friendly locals. Awesome serving staff. Wifi for business meetings.

This is my go to place to eat when I am starving and know the food is reliable. I had their usual fish burger with salad. If you have an aversion to gluten or bread, ask to have the burger wrapped in lettuce. A bit messy but worth it. There are other food choices but if you’re a legendary burger fan, go for it! With the times of inflation, consider their happy hour from 2 – 5 pm and after 8 pm every day. A good selection of beer, bellinis’ or wine. There’s 3 categories of various appies at $6, $8, $10. They also have daily drink specials depending on the day of the week such as ‘Tapped Tuesdays’ - $1 off Nat’s on Tap. Regardless you can’t go wrong at any White Spot. Service was prompt and efficient.

Christine Howlett

Several GF options - all sandwiches and breakfast toasts have the option of GF bread. Server was well informed of celiac protocols.

Giulia Turco

Been coming here with my family for 16 years, and love it. The staff is friendly, food is tasty, price is reasonable and there are modifications the team makes for my celiac family member.

Matthew Bleakney

Went up to Grouse Mountain for my birthday. The view was amazing and the food was great. Our server Nick was phenomenal, and the only reason I am giving 4 stars is because the person who sits people down was not as friendly and welcoming as our server or the other staff - so we were unsure if we would like the place at first but it was great once we sat down and had Nick serve us. Also had sufficient dietary options for my wife who is dairy and gluten-free. Nice place, would go back.

A group of 5 of us went on a Wednesday around 5:30pm, it wasn’t too busy, we were seated quickly. We enjoyed everything about Steamworks - the food, atmosphere, and especially the exceptional service we received. We agreed we’ll happily return! •Location 5/5: great new (ish) option for any North Shore folk! Ample free street parking nearby; plus, near a main bus route. •Atmosphere 5/5: love the option to sit inside or out on the large patio, which is dog friendly! Good range of music, which wasn’t too loud so you can easily carry on conversations. •Food 4.75/5: plenty of options that are sure to accommodate everyone (vegan, gluten free, etc.). Portions were generous, yet not unnecessarily big. •Staff/Service 5/5: welcoming, very attentive, happy to accommodate, prompt. •Price 5/5: reasonably priced, especially during Happy Hour! •Cheeseburger 4.25/5: the charbroiled patty makes for exceptionally great flavor. All veggies were fresh and crisp, burger sauce was very tasty! •Prawn & Chorizo Jambalaya 4.75/5: packed with a variety of spices, generous amount of perfectly cooked prawns. It has a bit of a kick, but nothing too extreme. •Vegan Goddess Bowl 5/5: three out of five people in our group ordered these, it was their second time here (specifically for this dish), so it’s a clear winner! •Beeramisu 3.75/5: I’m not a tiramisu fan, but friends ordered this and gave the rating. Big portion, sharable, a neat spin on tiramisu. •Other: friends ordered Poutine, Poke Nachos, and Vegan Dumplings as starters, which they enjoyed and said they’d order again.

Just had the juiciest burger and buffalo wings that made my taste buds do a happy dance! If you’re not afraid to loosen your belt, this place is a must! Btw I’m gluten free so they made me a lettuce-wrapped burger!

Tina Burke

The best takeout - especially for vegetarian and gluten free.

We recently used Tommy’s Catering to cater a party of 30 in our home in North Vancouver. The food was delicious and plentiful. A highlight was having all the food gluten free. Devki’s conscientious service and attention to detail made our event stress free. Best decision we ever made was to have Tommy's cater our event. We highly recommend Tommy's if you need a fabulous catering service.

Christine Sumner

Great food (had gluten free toast), I had the poached egg, smoked salmon with capers, yummy and very good service. Reasonably priced 👍👍👍👍👍
