What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Ribeye meal with baked potato and asparagus (explicit GF option)
- Fresh catch sandwich on a gluten-free bun
- Daily catch (Ono) with cauliflower veg, with the kitchen pan-frying potatoes to avoid cross-contact
- Mushroom risotto with shrimp ( GF-safe according to diner reports)
- Gluten-free bread
- Quinoa substitutes available as GF-friendly options
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility is not a dedicated gluten-free environment, which introduces inherent cross-contamination risk.
- Several notes reference shared fryers or equipment, and at least one diner explicitly mentioned cross-contamination in the fryer. In other cases, staff were noted as taking steps (e.g., pan-frying potatoes) to reduce risk.
- Menu labeling for GF options is not always explicit; guests may need to ask and confirm how items are prepared.
