Absolute treat to eat safe gf food at a diner! Our waitress, Andrea, assured us that she’s been trained in allergy safety and set our minds at ease. My daughter said the gf pancakes were the best she’s ever had. 3 out of our party of 10 have celiac and we all enjoyed our meals. If we lived in town, we’d be here every weekend!

This diner was amazing! I don’t remember the last time I’ve been to a diner and been able to eat something besides a salad! They have bread, buns, wraps, pasta, French toast, cupcakes and so much more!! They have a whole page in the menu and then also have gluten free options throughout the menu. Will totally be coming back all the time!!

I ate here recently and was advised by the server that everything GF is made separately. He then also walked me through the menu as to what could be made GF, very helpful. I ordered an omelet with GF toast and had no problems. A diner is the one thing I really miss about going GF so I’m really happy to have found this place.

They are very accommodating here but unfortunately I tested the gluten free pancakes and hash browns with my Nima sensor and it came back gluten found.

My kids and I are newly diagnosed with celiac and still learning the ropes of restaurant dining. Our waiter at Fountain Diner was patient and knowledgeable about our dietary needs. The restaurant is certified for food allergy safety and very well versed in avoiding cross contamination and the needs of gluten free diners. They have a very large menu and many items are able to be prepared gluten free (we had gf challah French toast, a gf quesadilla and a gf turkey burger). Very good fries in a dedicated fryer. Highly recommend this place. We will be back often!

Went for breakfast this weekend and had a great experience. The staff was great about the gluten free options, which are also listed on the menu. I had the pancakes and they were delicious! I’m already looking forward to going back to try the French toast.

TL;DR - Great staff, great food, and very safe.

I could write a book on how attentive and delicious this place was. Menu is clearly marked and the staff is beyond knowledgeable. We ordered the Texas burger which came with BBQ sauce, our server brought it out shortly after the meal was brought and said “we wanted to check that it was gluten free.” We also had the pancakes which were exceptional.

Gluten free pancakes were excellent; enough to take half home for next day. Disappointed outdoor area closed for lack of staffing but felt there was adequate distancing in my booth. Friendly service. I was given someone else’s check by mistake when I was ready to leave but that was rectified quickly.

Sal the owner uses dedicated facilities for gluten free items, so no worries about cross contamination. The brand of rolls/wraps he uses are tasty too. Love it because so many of their items are gluten free. They are also extremely careful and take several precautions to keep us safe against COVID-19. Check it out!

Wow - a “real” diner with many GF options, including breakfast! We had the pancakes, steak, and one of their salads (big) which were a delicious! They take extra care to avoid cross contamination. We’ll definitely be back on our next visit to the area.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing Gluten Free! They Truly Care About Cross Contamination And Have Many Options. Best Pancakes BTW, I’ve Had

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I stop by for lunch here at least twice a month. Typical diner fare - by no Means gourmet dining but good for a quick breakfast or lunch. Spoke to manager and he told me he has a few celiacs in his family so they are very aware of GF requirements. They have a page in menu listing GF offerings - including french fries. I’ve tried the gf wraps and turkey burgers and haven’t been disappointed. The recently added gf English Muffins to their offerings. Also have cupcakes for dessert or if you just want to stop in for coffee and snack.

Have gf fries, buns, and bread. Always consistent.

The time I went the food was really bad. My companion who is not gluten free ordered a steak and it was so bad . My food was prepared gluten free but it too was tasteless and just plain bad. I ate there many years prior and the food had been good. It has declined a lot. I just can't recommend it because fortunately there are so many better places.

NO GLUTEN FREE MENU!

They have White and Multigrain udis. It's a typical NY diner that has everything so they can easily make you something safe like Grilled Chicken, Baked Potato and Veggies. CC could be an issue so be sure to ask.

Gf buns and bread and cupcakes. They will cook everything separate for you if you ask. Some waitresses are more knowledgable then others. Owners are very good.

catered to my gluten sensitive toddler
