My daughters and I (all celiac) had an incredible experience at Cinnamon Bear - lots of clearly marked GF options on their menu and the staff was very familiar with food allergy protocols to keep us safe - they used clean gloves and ice cream scoop and got fresh containers for us from the back to scoop from so no worries about cross contact. When we thanked them for their extra care to keep us safe, they said “of course - everyone should be able to enjoy ice cream.” Wish there were more ice cream shops and restaurants as thoughtful and caring as this place.

Many GF flavors clearly marked and they went into the back to scoop from a new container for my celiac kids. Delicious, too!

About half the ice cream flavors on the menu were gluten-free and were clearly marked as such. I’ve never seen that many gluten-free ice cream flavors in one place! I had praline pecan and it was delicious. They keep the ice cream scoops separate but washed mine anyway and changed gloves without asking. They were also willing to get my ice cream from a fresh container in the back. I felt very safe eating my ice cream.

They were willing to change gloves, use a new clean scooper and scoop from the back. Did not have all flavors available but great to get ice cream without worrying.

A little gem in Harbor Town. Definitely stop in for souvenirs and ice cream. GF Ice cream flavors are marked as such. Say hi to Mr. Mike.

Love that they have all the gluten free flavors marked so there is no guessing! Also, when we informed them that our daughter has celiac disease, they took all the precautions (new scoop, changed gloves and took out a new container). Very impressed and the ice cream was yummy!

Took cross contamination very seriously. Free sprinkles and nuts were also okay because they keep them in a dispenser

Staff will take a clean scoop and get your ice cream from a separate container. Safe and delicious!

Went on the Sunday before Memorial Day, and it was very busy. We waited about five minutes. Line moved quickly as servers were polite but efficient. Menu board has GF and DF options clearly marked. Each ice cream flavor has its own scoop, eliminating cross contamination. Portions are very good. Chose a single scoop in a cup, which is more like a double. I ate the mint chocolate chip and my daughter (also GF) chose the raspberry sorbet. I thought mine was very good. She said hers was average. I will definitely go back next time I'm in Harbour Town.
