We had a great girls' night out with fantastic food, a wonderful atmosphere, and excellent service. The variety of pizzas was amazing, and we loved trying the cheese sticks, Thai Peanut pizza, and calzone. One of our friends had the gluten-free, dairy-free pizza and said it was delicious. We all agreed that we will definitely be back!
Enjoy stunning sunset views over the lake from the patio while soaking up a lively atmosphere that's perfect for people watching.

Best Gluten-Free Option in Okoboji
I had a fantastic gluten-free burger with a lettuce wrap bun and a salad. I have
celiac disease and I did not get sick. The menu does state that they cannot guarantee everything will be 100% gluten-free due to potential cross-contamination ("flour flying around the kitchen"), but if you're having a salad or something grilled, I doubt you'd have any issues.
Plus, lunch on the patio was a great vibe.
We visit Arnold's Park every year as a family, and we ALWAYS eat at Maxwell's Beach Cafe! I am gluten free with a severe allergy - they have plenty of options and I have never had a reaction. The fare is fantastic and reasonable priced. We have tried all kinds of things - burgers, Wagyu beef burgers, salmon Caesar salad, fish tacos, wraps. Every meal has tasted wonderful and the presentation is great! Always friendly service. And its a plus that it's right in the Park.

If you eat gluten free I would not go here. The GF chicken strips were pressed chicken strips out of a freezer bag. All their fries are seasoned with breading you can’t eat.
Otherwise, everyone can enjoy a good sports bar atmosphere and some deep fried gizzards that I heard were really yummy. Burgers looked good as well. Lots of TVs and a good view of the lake.
Perfect atmosphere to meet and chat with friends. My summertime salad was fresh and delicious. Lots of healthy options and gluten-free bread available, too. We’ll be back!
Unique flavors and delicious options make this spot a must-visit, perfect for satisfying any sweet tooth!

So Disappointing. Read on line that they have gluten free donuts. So excited!! Made a special trip there and NOPE! The not sorry, not friendly employee said," we don't have them today" and that was it! So I won't go back again.
