Very few items are gluten free sadly as this is a restaurant all gluten eaters should try! I had the green goddess salad and a milkshake, both were delicious. Can’t have anything fried here due to cross contamination and their fries are their most popular item. Felt very safe eating my two items.

Can’t eat the fries and there’s no gluten free bread. Everyone you go with will get fries and share them and it will suck for you.

As mentioned by others, options are limited, especially that you can't have the fries due to cross contamination with the donut holes. The family loved the poutine but ironically had stomach issues later that night. I, on the other hand, was fine with the tomato soup (no croutons) and the Greek goddess salad with duck. The sodas are very refreshing as well!

I was told the gluten free options were menu salads and taking the meat from sandwiches and putting them on the salad. This was by far the best salad during my visit to Portland! I had green goddess salad with smoked duck, my daughter did salad with duck confit, and other daughter did their BLT salad. I was bummed other options weren’t open to us on menu, but changed my mindset that it was a ‘healthy meal’ for us and was pleased in the end. Fun and novel drinks added to meal.

Came here with a friend so she could experience this well known place. I didn’t get my hopes up for fries, celiacs know better than that. But I asked anyway. Waitress seemed annoyed that I even asked, and the answer is that they’re not safe. The donut holes are fried in the same oil. At least she told me, rather than lie or be too ignorant to realize the importance of cross contamination, so I’m happy about that. But celiacs, unfortunately this is a no go.
