Ashling On The Lough

Some gf options. The shepherd's pie was just adequate, not great. No gf fish or fries. No dedicated fryer. Pretty nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. I cannot recommend this restaurant to celiac's.

This restaurant is in the most beautiful location - right on the waterfront. Cute place. Casual dining. Lots of GF choices. Try the Irish Root Soup. It was amazing!

Menu has GF, DF, and vegetarian items clearly marked. There are a number of GF items. I had the corned beef and cabbage, which was great, and so was the atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Other Characteristics

• Good for dairy-free

Ashling on the Lough (pronounced ‘Lake’) waiter wasn’t at all familiar with Celiac restrictions, but ended up pulling in the Kitchen Manager, Cornelius A.K.A. ‘Corn’, personally took our order and prepared it himself with bacon-wrapped dates for an appetizer, grilled salmon and potatoes & sautéed spinach for the main course. All this wouldn’t have been safe without Cornelius. Great experience!

The shepherd & cottage pies are delicious. Great local place for gf options.

Great shepherd's pie, GF, and nice service

Really nice selections. Shepherd pie feels like comfort food. gf bread is nice and some soups are available. They are knowledgeable, but I take care to go during off peak hours. Non gf friends weren't impressed, they found it average and service average, but I thoroughly enjoyed my options and confidence in the preparation.

Celiac friendly?

No

I absolutely love the menu items. I love the gluten free bread choices and the staff is excellent at handling allergy items!

The server was good about acknowledging my dietary needs right op front. She also stated that the chef was gf and was therefore very careful of cross contamination. I was oogling the non-gf mushrooms and was immediately offered the option to order it gf! Very tasty and felt comfortable and confident eating here!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friendly?

I would give it 5 stars if the prices were more reasonable. LOVE that the menu has clearly labeled gf dishes, but I could have dome without the gentleman playing guitar and singing 10 feet from our table. Had the salmon,delicious but expensive, and comes with the best potatoes EVER. Would definitely go again

Great GF menu with appetizers, burgers, seafood, breads and a dessert. They also had a gluten free beer! Knowledgeable wait staff. A bit pricey and a bit hard to find. Use your GPS! Great lakefront location

They have a legit gluten free menu, not just a printed out piece of paper! Great atmosphere and delicious food. Service is a bit slow but it's worth the wait.

Very large gluten free selection. I have not had problems eating there. The food is very good. The only negative is that service is pretty slow and the food is slightly on the expensive side to comparable restaurants. If you don't mind the wait, I highly recommend Ashling on the Lough (pronounced "lock").

This place had a full gluten free menu, awesome. Very friendly staff. And really really good food. Pricey, but I highly recommend it.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. A separate GF menu! The Irish Reuben was amazing! Can't wait to go back. They even bake the French fries to avoid cross contamination.

They have a great gluten free menu, and even offer gluten free bread sometimes! I was super excited to see a great selection.
