The presence of Jake’s in Nantasket Beach influenced our decision to vacation at the Nantasket Beach Resort because the reviews were so good, especially regarding the obvious sensitivity of Jake’s to providing gluten-free options (including its fried seafood). And Jake’s did not disappoint. We ordered take out the first night in town there to dine in three additional times during our week stay. It was that good. The location on the bay was picturesque, the staff was exceptionally friendly, and the food was expertly prepared. Jake’s batter for fried seafood is delicious in itself, but the kitchen staff clearly don’t take for granted that they could just bread seafood and throw it in the fryer. They clearly attend to the fried dishes while they’re cooking, serving them at the peak of preparedness. The fried shrimp, for example, were crunchy on the outside, thoroughly cooked but still crisply fresh on the inside. The fried clams, likewise, were excellent. But I was even more impressed with the kitchen’s ability to prepare non-fried fish, including a broiled local bluefish special with a delightfully tart house Dijon sauce and a grilled striped bass special with house bourbon sauce—both cooked absolutely perfectly. We are sure to make a point of coming back to Jake’s whenever we’re in the area again.

What a great experience! The hostess went through the menu with us and explained what was safe (and it was a lot!). Their breading is GF and the fryer is dedicated. They also have GF pasta. We had onion rings, asian glazed salmon (they use GF soy sauce), crab cakes, lemon garlic shrimp, and whole belly clams, all GF. My daughter is very sensitive and didn’t get sick. We sat outside and the water view was so nice.

I am celiac. Amazing! I was so so soooo happy! Dedicated fryer! I had salt and pepper breaded shrimp app (yes!) and then a just caught swordfish sandwich on GF bun with amazing fries. Safe and delicious. We’re only here for 2 days but I’m totally going back again tomorrow! You need to go here!

A wonderful place to eat! It’s always so comforting when a restaurant understands celiac disease. We were totally comfortable eating here and the food was delicious.

My daughter went here for her birthday and was so excited to be able to order any type of fried seafood and know it’s safe for those with celiac disease. It’s in such a nice spot in Hull, worth the drive to eat here! Not many GF dessert options, but we were too full to order anyway.

Dedicated fryer! Gluten free seafood and fries!Ever since I became gluten free, this place has saved my life in the summer. It’s really great to be able to go to the beach and then grab some *delicious*, *safe*, *fresh* fried seafood, with French fries, and a cocktail - and never get sick from it. Love it, thanks Jake’s! They are great for takeout (you can eat your gluten free fried clams on Nantasket beach if you’d like) and also have a really lovely deck for dining. At this point I have eaten here more times than I can count and never been sick, but always have been satisfied.

To add: My gluten consuming family and friends also love this place. Now my gluten eating friend orders gluten free here too. We all know that says a lot.

I was told their whole fried line is gluten free and that it took two years to perfect their batter. It is not however dairy free so I got a lobster roll on a gf roll and French fries. All good. Their menu wasn’t marked gluten free but the server was familiar with safe items. Since their fried foods are all gf most of the menu is.

My daughter has celiac disease and sensitive to cross contamination. The majority of the menu is gluten free. All of the fried food is gluten free with a dedicated fryer. They have gluten free buns for sandwiches and gf bread crumbs. Staff very knowledgeable. I called ahead and spoke to chef who was very knowledgeable and helpful. Wait staff excellent and brought out gf meal for my daughter separately. All the food including the GF food was delicious. Highly recommend.

Incredibly good gluten free onion rings!! I have celiac, and I did not react at all. I also had their fries, chicken sandwich (on a gf bun), and calamari. All objectively delicious, and above and beyond what I expected. My new go-to food when I'm in the area.

I almost cried when I found out all the fried food was gluten free! I had the fish and chips - delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I called ahead and asked if they had a designated gluten free fryer and could make gluten free fried scallops and fries for my daughter who has Celiacs. The response was, “absolutely!” When we arrived I informed the waitress my daughter had celiacs. She said no problem and made a note of that fact. We ordered the gluten free fried scallops and French fries. 2 hours later she was violently ill. If you’re going to offer gluten free.....make SURE it gluten free! If there is cross contamination.....it’s NOT Celiac friendly!

You can't go wrong.

They have a dedicated fryer and can make just about anything on the menu gf. I had the fried whole belly clams and french fries and was fine. Best clams I ever had.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love the food and how knowledge they are .i eat here very often and never got sick

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I ate there a few weeks ago, I spoke to the woman in the front before entering, I spoke to the waitress explaining cross contamination, how severely I react. I was reassured over and over how "they get it", I said ok well let's keep it simple anyway, steamers and boiled lobster. Waitress continued to say here you are at a very safe restaurant why not try out French fries or onion rings. Really there is nothing in kitchen that could cause cross contamination? No and we use separate fryers too. I broke down and ordered the French fries. I happily ate my food. No need to explain to any celiac in details what happened to my body within an hour of eating. It was not the clams, or lobster, I was an hour from home we had to pull over several times, you all know why, next morning woke up with the DH rash which proved gluten. I was sick for 9 days, and still have lingering effects. My husband called the owner who was horrified. He said it couldn't be, nice enough guy who truly wants to do right by celiac community, but failed to see the significance of having flour sitting next to the French fries. All it takes is for someone to scoop flour and woolaah cross contamination of any food in the vicinity. Flour stays airborne for 48 hours and dissipates onto any food and pans etc. so no jakes is not CELIAC FRIENDLY, however gluten intolerant people should be ok. I do believe however the owner wants to get it right. So here's hoping he can either do away with the flour in the designated celiac part of the kitchen or use gluten free flours throughout the kitchen. Which by the way is what LEGAL SEAFOODS HAS DONE.

Celiac friendly?

No

This place did not pop up when I was searching for nearby restaurants, but I was elated when we stopped here and found out they have a dedicated fryer!! Great and knowledgeable server and the best gf clam bellies I've had besides Legal's and yummy French fries. Beautiful views outside and they allowed our dog to sit with us while we ate. Will be back asap! 😊😊

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great fried seafood.

Delicious gf fried clam strips and onion rings!

I enjoyed my seafood platter. Our waitress was very nice, I felt that they really take GF seriously. They even provide a GF ketchup. Will definitely return.

Very knowledgeable and accommodating. Designated gluten free fryer.

Gluten-free fish & chips! Excellent meal & very knowledgable about the menu items. Recommend highly!

Amazing! Very knowledgable and understanding. Have an extensive gluten free menu and a designated fryer!
