Howe Sound Brewing

Came here specifically for the gluten free reviews I had seen.

The waitress seemed nervous when I asked about a separate gluten free fryer but went to the back to double check. Cam out ensuring me that there are separate fryers.

I later found out that there are NO SEPARATE FRYERS and I was badly glutened.

They weren’t sure if their fryer was dedicated any more, no gf beer. They have a gf bun, but very expensive for what it is.

We came here for dinner one night after seeing the reviews on here. We checked with our server and they told us the fryer was shared. So even though some things were marked gluten-free we didn’t risk it. We stuck with salad just in case. That was a bit disappointing but the salad was good.

Lots of options on the menu and clearly identified as Gluten free on the main menu. I had confirmation that they have a separate fryer for their chips. Had a burger and chips in Gf bun, very tasty and really easily accommodated. Would recommend.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We usually love this restaurant- but it isn’t the most celiac friendly. There are gluten free options on the menu, as well as gluten free buns.But NO dedicated fryer, and NO gluten free beer options. Friendly servers, who were helpful, and did enjoy a salmon burger in a gf bun. Just no fries and no gf beer to have on the sunny patio! All in all- a nice place to go, but not heaps of options if you are celiac. Gluten friendly for sure though :)
