Luke's Lobster

Went today and they did not have the GF buns. Only options were soup so we opted to go elsewhere.

really helpful staff. had GF buns which were delicious, manager brought food personally and checked in several times to see how I was doing.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is literally what I look forward to every time I’m visiting downtown Philly. First off they have made it very clear to me that there is always potential for cross contamination so those of you who are super sensitive, you may wish to avoid this place. I personally haven’t had any issues in the dozen or so times I’ve been here. If you’re looking for a gluten free lobster roll, crab roll or shrimp roll this is your place. It’s not evident on the menu in the shop but if you ask, they have gluten free rolls. Today I learned something new. Their soups are also gluten free. They use a potato starch and not flour. So I had me a crab roll and large clam chowder. Don’t remember the last time I’ve had clam chowder. It really hit the spot. This is a hole in the wall restaurant that can easily be missed but so worth the go if you’re looking for something gluten free.

Sometimes they have gluten free buns, but even without the bun the lobster is delicious.

Great Saturday night dinner had here mid Feb on a weekend away in Portland. Busy night and highly recommend reservations so you aren’t stuck waiting. We were sat on the upper level of the restaurant and although winter darkness obscured the view I’m sure it’s a lovely one during the day. I had a lovely cocktail with blueberry in it can’t remember which though. Thoroughly enjoyed all $40 of my large lobster roll (yes lobster is still expensive but I was celebrating my birthday so I was in a treat yo self mentality) as they have a smaller one with less meat on the menu. Can’t recall if gf was marked on the printed menu for all available options or safety of fryer, my meal came with potato chips. However when my boyfriends chowder was brought out the server noted it was gluten-free and had two spoons with it just in case. Boyfriend who is non gf had the fried haddock platter and noted the fish tasted like it could have been caught that day. We did not stay for dessert but enjoyed our dinner. Can’t wait to visit again soon.
