Dutchess Diner

Had a salad with flank steak. Notified our waiter of my gluten allergy. Didn't have any problems.

When I went a few months ago they told me that they did not have a separate toaster, fryer or cooking space. I was able to eat a cup of fruit. They have great “regular” food for my family, but I won’t be eating there.

I’ve eaten here so frequently they give me the gluten free menu automatically. I’ve never had a problem, and the items on the gluten free menu are good.

Update- During the COVID pandemic they discontinued their gluten free menu. I will update when it returns

They no longer offer gluten free options. We tried to go last Summer 2021 and they said they don’t have gluten free waffles, pancakes, or bread any more. You could probably still find something gluten free like eggs and bacon.

They have a separate area in the kitchen and the staff is very knowledgeable

I’ve never gotten anything bad and I go here about once a week. The food is fantastic. From salads, sandwiches, and breakfast, they can really do it all.

Staff is so nice and friendly. They actually care about your allergy and make it a point to make you feel safe. This is by far the best diner I’ve ever been to.

Maybe it was what I ordered, but I was disappointed with my food. They do seem knowledgeable & food did seem safe, it just was not very good. I ordered the gluten free chicken tenders & they were the worst ones I’ve ever had. Since they don’t have a GF fryer it looks like the cooked them in a toaster oven and they were very undercooked, the breading was crumbly & chalky. I was also disappointed that they do not have gluten free buns for burgers, they used toasted sandwich bread. My husband had the gluten free waffle and we both agreed it had a weird taste to it. If you’re in a pinch, it’s a good place to get a safe meal, just don’t have very high expectations.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gluten free menu and they will make most thing on the regular menu gluten free as well. No dedicated fryer but they have a knowledgeable staff and if there is a question the staff always checks with the chef before saying yes or no. Food quality is very good and all is reasonably priced. Add that to the friendliness of the staff and you have a winner here.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I went here again and tried the gf wrap and they have a side of chips with it. I recommend this place for sure! I had an awesome waiter named Santiago who was super friendly, knowledgeable about gf and was very patient with me even when I was asking so many questions.

My children took me here for Mother's Day last year! The waffles are so good. I was also there last week with my boyfriend and their parmesan crusted chicken with pesto pasta is by far the best gluten free meal I have had out dinning. They get an A plus rating from me!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I love eating here! I've been here 2 times already. I had their Belgium waffle -made in a dedicated waffle maker(fantastic!) and the salmon dish that's on the gf menu ( it was amazing!!)

I definitely recommend this place!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gluten free menu. The waffles made on dedicated waffle iron are great. The pasta with chicken and pesto cream sauce is awesome as was the flank steak. When hubby was recently diagnosed with Celiac we were happy to discover that our fav diner had a gluten free menu.

Good selection of gluten free meals, such as Belgian waffles, chicken tenders, pasta, etc. they have gluten free bread/toast and wraps. Only unfortunate thing is they can't make the omelettes gf because there is cross contamination.

Can substitute rolls and toast on the regular menu with Gluten Free toast. Also they have amazing Belgian Waffles!

The owners have put in a lot of work to create a very nice gf menu. There are waffles made on a dedicated waffle iron, gf chicken fingers, gf bread for sandwiches, even house made gf granola. My favorite is the gf parmesan crusted chicken on pasta with pesto sauce. Many more choices than most local places.

Great menu selection
