Cafe Miranda

A local person recommended this place, especially for it’s Fish chowder. It truly was the best Haddock chowder I have ever eaten! This is a true complement, as I grew up & lived on the downeast coast of Maine & lived on Campobello Island for 30 years. It was made to order & roasted with flavorful smokehouse bacon, new potatoes & onions, cream and a delicious stock for flavoring. I chose not to have the corn in mine. The menu is creative & unique. It is a small cafe’ and a very busy spot, so you need to make a reservation in advance of a suppertime meal. I make them aware of my dietary restriction of Celiac disease when I called for the reservation & to my server when I arrived. I had no issues with my Celiac Disease. Enjoy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was knowledgeable about my wife’s gluten sensitivity. There were only a couple of options for what she could have. She choose the chowder and was happy.

Cafe Miranda always has a large selection of GF offerings, unusual pairings and abundance of food. Worth the trip.

Food tasted good (feta dip; GF Dan Dan Noodles; tacos) but we definitely got Glutened. So, depending on your level of intolerance, you may want to stay clear.

​ We went to this restaurant because it advertised as gluten-free. The menu choices were numerous with no theme or apparent order. My conversation with the waitress was this: Me: What are my gluten-free options? Her: Well, not many really. We make our own bread so the whole kitchen is cross-contaminated. Me: What about the tortilla chips? (The chips were marked in the menu as gluten-free.) Her: Oh! We cut the corn tortillas ourselves, but we put them in the regular fryer. We don’t have a separate fryer. Me: There is nothing here I can eat. So we left.

My wife, daughter and I had one of the best meAls on the mid-coast. We had crab sandwich , eggplant platter and the sea biscuit". We all enjoyed our dinners! We will definitely go back! A wonderful atmosphere; we say outside too!

The food is okay. Many dishes are prepared in a homestyle fashion. The price of the meals does not match the quality of the food. As for the gf aspect of the meal they werent sure about certain ingrediants. I had ordered an app that they said was gf. Had I not asked about one of the ingredients I would have received the dish with gluten. I would not recommend as a safe gf alternative. Not so sure the entree wasn't cross contaminated. Sure feel like I was exposed to gluten.

Extensive and creative menu, many GF choices, delicious local food, open kitchen with friendly, accommodating staff.
