Lobster Roll and Clam Chowder is a great treat. Pricey and worth it. Casual. Order at the window and eat at a high-top.

I didn’t get sick and I felt totally safe. But honestly, I thought the trio was a little bland. The crab roll was great though. Next time would probably skip the trio. It’s also kind of expensive for the portions which makes sense, but I’d think of this as a special occasion type of food.

EAT. HERE. Teeny little spot and easy to miss but omg my lobster roll was so so yummy. My husband and I each ordered one. When they came out one was much smaller than the other. I assumed the smaller one was mine (gf) but it wasn’t! It was the bigger bun and it was very yummy. Can’t miss.

They have gluten-free rolls and soups, but the best part was that they took their time to clean the station during a busy lunch rush. Super yum!

Owner’s daughter has celiac so the staff is super knowledgeable. We had to wait a bit while they cleaned the kitchen between our gluten and non-gluten sandwiches. (Yay!)

The GF bread is soft but a little tasteless. (When isn’t it?) The clam chowder is AMAZING. They use potato starch instead of flour so all the soups are GF. When was the last time you had a creamed soup?!?

We’re from out of town, but I’d be here often if I could. Myself and daughter are both celiac and neither of us got sick.

I am very sensitive celiac. Went to Luke's and have not had any reaction 24 hours later. Upon ordering they asked about preference or allergy. When I said allergy, they told me it would be a couple extra minutes as they get a new cutting board, knife and utensils. The lobster roll, clam chowder and natural sodas are awesome!

I eat here about once a month and I’ve been sick. When your a gf roll, the cashier will ask if gf is a preference or allergy. When you say “allergy” they get a new cutting board, knife, and change gloves. Also the gf rolls are so good that once I thought I was served a gluten roll by mistake. I wasn’t.

Ate here for lunch and had the trio. Also the fries were safe, which I loved! Really delicious and didn’t get sick. GF roll for the lobster, crab and shrimp roll. Plenty of food and shared with hubby. Big chunks of lobster. First lobster roll since diagnosis. Would highly recommend.

Sadly when we came here in July the staff was not very nice. I asked for gluten free bread with the cashier, but 10 minutes later was told by a man in the kitchen there wasn't any that day. We got cold lobster, crab and shrimp and some soup. Not really worth the walk there or the money spent.

My snow crab roll was very good. The gluten free roll was soft and had lots of crab meat. They asked about my gluten free preference. Staff ensured that the grill was cleaned for my order and also warned of cross contamination.

I was nervous to come here due to existing reviews on this app. I ended up coming twice and speaking to four servers and a manager. They recently went entirely gf, everything going into the frier is made with rice flour and the only gluten in the kitchen are the gluten buns. I ate here twice and had an amazing experience! Everyone was very well informed about celiac. I felt very confident eating here after asking them a bunch of questions, which they were very patient to answer!
