Review
Great patio location on the harbour with wonderful gluten free options. I had the lobster poutine (gf) it wasn't my favourite as I'm not a huge seafood lover but I was thrilled to be able to try it! They also have tacos, burgers, etc that were gf. Apparently the chef has celiac so they're very knowledgeable. Had a celiac safe cider too, on draft. Only downside they only have porta potties.

Review
Staff gave information and was knowledgeable about what is safe and not safe for celiac. Had a dedicated fryer so I was able to get fries. Many of the items I was interested in they could not do GF or it was not available. Settled for a plain burger and fries. It was mediocre. Wouldn’t go back due to lack of options and nothing special in the taste.

Review
Stopped here for Lunch on a Monday service was great all around. Asked for a table in the shade and the hostess found us one. Our server Charles was very knowledgeable and went over the menue with me. They have lots of options including gluten-free pouting!! I have kot had one in so long and it was very tasty. We also enjoyed their spinach dip which came with corn chips. They offer all the sandwiches with gluten-free buns. Theyvalso only offer products from Nova Scotia to drink. We enjoyed Garrison's cream soda. It was so good we popped down to the brewery after to pick some up. Great place. Friendly knowledgeable staff.
