What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Lobster roll served on a gluten-free bun
- Gluten-free macaroni and cheese (GF pasta)
- Fries or chips prepared in a dedicated gluten-free fryer
- Hamburger or other handhelds on gluten-free buns
- Gluten-free blueberry pie (and GF blueberry pie variants mentioned in multiple recent notes)
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The business is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact risk cannot be ruled out entirely.
- There are a few older or isolated reports suggesting safety concerns or cross-contact issues. However, these are not the prevailing pattern in recent evidence and many recent diners report safe experiences.
- Given the variability of service on busy days, it’s wise to explicitly mention your celiac needs, confirm the use of a dedicated fryer and GF prep procedures, and ask for allergy flags with your order.
