I thought my days of enjoying fish and chips were over, until I went here. This 5 table Cafe with patio is wonderful. Dedicated gluten free fryer, menu clearly marks GF items. The fish batter is light and crispy - you don't feel like you're missing out...because you're not. The only gluten-containing items are the bun for sandwiches.

We’ve been on vacation for nearly 2 weeks now. I have not been able to have fries in that time. So, on a quick stop in Kelowna I insisted that we stop here for lunch. The fish & chips and fish tacos were amazing! I will definitely be back our next trip through.

I got my fries! They hit the spot.

Soooo good! I will definitely be coming back! I haven’t had “real” fish and chips since my Celiac disease diagnosis, and my meal here was even better than anything I’ve had with gluten before. Amazed at all the wonderful GF options and knowledgeable staff!

Delicious, and dedicated GF fryer! We had the fish & chips- with a poutine! The batter was nice and light and crispy, and the fries were hot & perfect. The coleslaw was curry flavoured & delicious. This was a true fish & chips lunch, and all members of our group enjoyed (even those not celiac).

What a lovely treat to find gluten free fish and chips! This eat in/take out place offers several types of fish and the batter made with rice flour is very light and crispy. Everything on the menu is gluten free unless it’s in a bun, and one of the sauces but the tartar sauce IS GF. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable even though we arrived close to closing.

This place was so amazing. I visit Kelowna all the time for work and am so sad to have just found out about it. Only GF items go in the fryer. They do have a few non-GF items on the menu but it’s primarily GF. The fish and chips were amazing. Super juicy fish. Definitely get two pieces. You may not need it but you’ll want it!

Great gluten free fish and chips (hand cut). Everything on the menu is gluten free, including everything that goes into the fryer and all the homemade sauces. The large cut fries were great (although my gramma disagreed), soft on the inside with a bit of crunch on outside. The fish was only lightly battered (mostly fish meat vs mostly batter) and wasn't greasy. Had the cod and the salmon. YUM! Called in an order and it was ready 20 minutes later.

Dedicated fryer, and the owner has a very good knowledge about celiac disease. The majority of the menu is gluten free (including the fish batter), and the staff are very educated. The fries are fantastic. If you're wonder what isn't gluten free, they bring in bread from a local bakery for their sandwiches (no baking on site).

Wow! This could be the best gluten free fish and chips I’ve ever had, surpassing even the fish & chips I had in Ireland. Such fresh fish and beautiful light crispy batter. With it, I drank a wonderful local cider called No Boats on Sunday and finished with pineapple fritters for desert. Wow I am stuffed and satisfied. Great experience. Highly recommend.
