Didn't have a reaction, but the pancakes were just ok. It is doughy like someone said and that's just the consistency of it. The waiter was well aware of gluten free so I'm guessing a lot of customers ask for it. Worth trying once but I don't think I would go back

I ordered the specialty pancake (reminded me of a thick doughy wrap) with ham, red onion and tomatoes. I had no reaction and I am a very sensitive celiac.

The Dutch Pancake House- the food was well prepared and delicious, sadly I had a reaction after eating it while we were still at the restaurant. It was pretty horrible to be honest, so I am assuming that it wasn't just cross-contamination. I have a feeling that one of the pancakes was not gluten free but I can't prove it because they looked on the outside the same. I specifically asked the waiter if the had been prepared on the same surface as the regular pancakes, he said that they had cleaned everything up specifically for rhe GF pancakes...which to me means they did use the same surface. If you are not eating gluten by choice, you will definitely be fine (and the food itself was good)but if you have celiac, I would not consider it safe or recommend it. It is sad as this one has been marked as GF safe many times, and yet I just got one of the worst reactions I've had. Oh, and the staff didn't show much concern that I got sick from their food, which was disappointing on its own.

hands down best breakfast/lunch our entire trip to Aruba. We ended up going there twice - two days in a row. Felt very comfortable eating there as a Celiac, staff was knowledgeable. Got the bacon and cheese dutch pancake. I would eat there every day of my life if I could. 10/10 would recommend.

The waiter was very knowledgeable. Very sensitive to any gluten, food was excellent and safe. Ordered scrambled eggs and a Dutch pancake with bananas. Will most certainly go back.

They are able to make most of their dutch pancakes gluten free! I ate here 4 out of 7 days. Lots of different toppings with sweet or savory options.

Took my Celiac daughter here and she was thrilled with her gf pancakes. They were aware of her needs, and can apparently make it df too. My daughter doesn’t exhibit any apparent symptoms so I can’t say with certainty if it’s Celiac-friendly, but they used clean pans and gloves to prepare hers.

Their Dutch pancakes are delicious and available “regular” or gluten free. I had one with jam and another with Nutella & fruit—both were delicious! We only ordered the pancakes (and bacon) so I don’t know if there are more Gf options on the menu but we went for the pancakes (twice) and were very happy both times!
