Menu is marked with items that can be made gf. They mark the beer gluten removed. So they get it. Very friendly and easy experience.

The owners are both gluten free and the staff is very knowledgeable. They don't have a separate menu because 90% of the regular menu can be made gluten free! The food was incredible and I couldn't say enough good things about it.

Amazing. Huge menu selection, easy to navigate. Knowledgeable & accommodating staff, DEDICATED FRYER for the tasty fries... yes!!! I'm addicted to they're Lobster Mac & Cheese (pasta is strained in dedicated strainer). Ate here several times & never once got sick & I'm very sensitive.

It was ok but the options were a bit limited. Notably for the type of restaurant, there is no GF fryer for the fries.

Really good, a LOT of options. I also have to be dairy free, sadly I found cheese in my taco but was easily able to pick around it. Switched the flour tortilla for corn.

Food was good, but threw it up almost immediately. Might've been bad seafood (got lobster mac and cheese) or gluten.

Soooo many gluten free options! I've never been to a restaurant that had such an extensive menu filled with gluten free options like this. First time I was able to have Mac and cheese since I found out I had celiac! I was so thrilled, I had to go a few times during my vacation.

The servers were very knowledgable and reassuring about the celiac options. Had the lobster roll and fries (dedicated fryer). I am very sensitive and had no issues after eating here!

This place was...fine. I ordered the lobster mac, and it was good but nothing special. The kitchen sent out a regular mac plate, so I was lucky the server caught that it was not the GF pasta as she was about to serve it to me. She quickly swapped it for the GF version. No guarantee all servers are as knowledgeable, so I have to rate this restaurant as not safe for celiacs.

So many gluten free options that I had trouble making a decision. I decided to go with the lobster quesadilla and wow it was awesome. And yes, celiac friendly.

Lots of choices- including cocktails! They did a great job and the portions are generous! Fryer only takes French fries- so it's clean. Great place- we'll be back for sure!

I ate here three times during my trip to Bar Harbor because the food was so good and there were so many celiac safe options! They take cross contamination precautions and could make almost all of their dishes on their menu gluten free. During my various times eating there I tried the lobster roll, lobster Mac and cheese, loaded nachos, a burger, and the spinach artichoke dip - all were fabulous! Loved the pub fries, too... it's always a treat when a place has celiac safe French fries that are delicious. Not to mention the staff was super friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend! They get busy, though, so if you can, call ahead to get your name on the waiting list.

Waitress asked if I had Celiac after I checked about a separate fryer! Ridiculous Mac & cheese, as was mentioned, also a gf bun for my partner's burger!

Great restaurant! Had a gluten free pasta dish for dinner and a hamburger on a gluten free bun for lunch. Both were delicious. They also have sweet tea for those from the south! Rare to find in the northern states. I did not have any symptoms from gluten exposure.

My body has pretty severe intolerances to not only gluten but dairy, apples and shellfish. Staff were always very friendly and would check on ingredients if they didn't know them off the top of their heads (they usually only had to check for apple ingredients). They talked me through the kitchen processes each time and would always make a note of all my allergies. I usually would build my own sandwich and sub out the chips for the pub fries. There guacamole was also delicious. I went here many times and never had any troubles.

I had the best lobster mac and cheese EVER! They offer GF pasta as an alternative for the pasta dishes! I couldn't eat the whole portion it was so large. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Food was excellent.

We ate here two days in a row. Staff takes celiac very seriously. GF rolls were excellent and they have more than one type. I got a grilled chicken sandwich with sauteed mushrooms and BBQ sauce (both days) and potato chips. Both days, they were gracious enough to open a new bag of chips to avoid cross-contamination. We also got the lobster/avocado appetizer, which comes with tortilla chips, and they did the same and opened a new bag. Our daughter got the mini slider cheeseburger with hand-cut fries on the side. She enjoyed her meal (she got it both days as well!) and it was reassuring to know they have a dedicated fryer. I will post pictures as soon as I figure out how! Also, I would typically have been anxious about how crowded the restaurant was, but the prior reviews put me more at ease. No problems whatsoever, and I'm super-sensitive. Good stuff!!!

The staff is well informed about celiac. I had the chicken Emmy sandwich which was delicious. the gf French fries were bland and hard as a rock, I couldn't eat them!

this place has a wide gfree selection. I ordered a boiled lobster meal with a roasted veggie side. Everything was tasty and lobster had nice presentation. No gfree dessert here. I appreciate finding an accomodating place like this in a small tourist town.

Two delicious GF meals. My son ordered the most delicious mac & cheese I have ever eaten. Our whole family thoroughly enjoyed our meals.

Gluten Free Mac & Cheese! It was fantastic. I will warn you the large is a really large portion. My 20 year old Celiac son could not finish it, that says a lot. Menu was clearly marked with GF options. Our server has Celiac. She went into great detail about what the kitchen does to prevent CC. Three of us eat GF and none of us got sick.

The salad was excellent. The GF Lobster roll was dry. I requested some mayonnaise to moisten up the sandwich. The server complied. The choices of GF cider was limited.

Great place! I wish I lived closer so I could come more often. There were so many options on the menu, it was hard to choose! Ended up with the apple cider brisket sandwich on GF bun and it was very, very good. Got chips on the side but should have gotten fries. They looked so good teasing me from my sister's plate with her gluten sandwich

Went here 3 times during my trip to Acadia and never got sick. I have celiac and they put a special alert on my order. Lots of options too!
