Beachside Diner

I do not recommend this place to anyone who is sensitive to cross contamination! Of course there will always be a risk when eating at a place that isn’t dedicated gluten free and that’s just something I live with and try to work around. But my plate came out on the same tray as all the other gluten filled plates, thats not always a huge issue for me so long as the gluten filled food doesn’t fall/spill onto my plate. But my plate and gluten free toast were covered in gravy from my brother’s biscuits and gravy.

Again, this place doesn’t claim to offer gluten free at all and I knew that going in, I was just trying to find something I could eat with a large group of people and hoped an omelette and Udis toast would be a somewhat safe option. But cross contamination is beyond clear.

They do offer Udis toast.

I so wanted to love this place after reading all the reviews but I cannot. I know I shouldn’t be a choosy begger but restaurants that use Udi’s are already up charging us and it’s not even worth the calories and doesn’t even stay together before the food makes it anywhere near our mouth. Also, nothing labeled on the menus or even a note that they have GF bread. -our service was knowledgeable so there’s that. -the server brought out the food in the same arm and not separated or labeled from families food that has lots of gluten. -the coffee was basically water. -the hash browns were delicious but I’m fairly certain that’s what exposed me to gluten despite my allergy/celiac warning. Came covered in freeze and found crumbs at the bottom after eating already. -The French toast is very much a krosten terminated in the batch better they use for regular bread, so it is not safe -nothing else really available besides eggs and salads. Very disappointed and feeling sick within 20 min of leaving.

Had a great experience here. Had an omelette and GF toast (toasted in the oven), which were delicious. Highly recommend.

Gluten free options include breakfast sandwiches with gf toast, oatmeal or yogurt bowls (minus the granola), and hash browns. Bread was toasted in a clean pan and the egg sandwich was delicious!
