This diner is a godsend for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about safe preparation and the food is solid. Highly recommend!
We bought an apple crumb pie today. I am not gluten free, but it was the most delicious pie I have in a very long time.
The crumbs are as delicious as the crust and filling …👍💕🥧
This was the best gluten free burger I've ever had. Gluten free buns aren't normally very good but this was amazing. My wife got one of their salmon entrees and loved it as well. We got in faster than we thought and our server was attentive and friendly.

If you’re looking for an old time charming diner this is the place to go, no bells and whistles…just outstanding service & super delicious food. We have food sensitivities and Cora (our server) was very attentive to our dietary needs. The other servers were friendly as well. The menu was easy to read( not overwhelming), gluten free options are available and these items were highlighted on the menu. We will definitely be back soon!
Amazing breakfast this morning. The owner’s daughter has celiac so very aware of cross contamination. My daughter with celiac had pancakes with strawberries. This was her first time eating breakfast at a restaurant since she was diagnosed with celiac. They can make anything on the menu gluten free. The only thing that is not gluten free is the scrapple and tater tots. Very good, we will be back.
Chimney Rock takes food sensitivities very seriously. As a parent of a child with celiac disease, Chimney Rock provides a safe place for my child to eat and feel like any other kid.
When we originally called to talk to them about how they handle food, the first person we spoke to answered confidently that they properly separate food prep areas for people with celiac or other gluten sensitive conditions. This told me they train their staff on this subject. They have a ton of gluten free meals, including pizza.
The first time we ate here after my child's diagnosis we had so many questions. Our waitress was patient, wrote down everything, double checked with the kitchen and management, and came back to our table multiple times to make sure everything we asked was answered to our satisfaction.
Honestly I can't say enough good things about Chimney Rock Inn. We ate here a bunch of times before celiac and it's been good food and service consistently over the years. Eat here. Bring your family. You'll not regret it.
Best gluten free sandwich I've ever had!!! They use Two Fields Italian rolls which is the only edible gluten-free bread in my opinion. I was skeptical to try because of how much I disliked other gluten-free sandwiches such as the warm have a Jersey Mike's. I was pleasantly surprised! I'll definitely be going back.
Almost killed our friend with celiac. Got there at 6:30, didn’t receive food until 8:00. Food received was cold and not appetizing. Never came over to tell us what the issue was and left us hungry.
One of my favorite spots. I’m celiac so I’m extra thankful for places like this. I’m not always in the area but when I am I stop in twice! KITCH muffin for breakfast with citrus black and turkey club with sparkling lemonade for lunch are my favorite and my kids love sitting in there sweet garden area to eat. I recommend ordering online first even if going to sit and eat there. Love the atmosphere and the staff. Small space but warm and inviting.
This gluten-free bakery is absolutely incredible! Stopped by on a lazy Sunday afternoon not long before closing. Egg and cheese on English muffin was outstanding and the coffee can't be beat.
The crumb cake and cinnamon donuts were delectable. Both items had a light almost fluffy consistency and the taste was absolutely scrumptious. After carbing up for brunch, I left with a bag full of tasty gluten-free baked treats and salad for later. Owners are super cool and it's a nice mellow atmosphere. First visit but certainly won't be the last 😃
It’s very difficult to find restaurants with gluten-free items. It’s much appreciative that they have gluten-free waffles and pancakes on the food was good.
I have been coming to Plum bakery for many years now. Love the country bread, dulce de leche, quiche, corn bread, cinnamon bagel, all! It will be love at first sight when you enter the bakery, as the sweet smell will enchant you! Thank you for providing delicious and healthy 100% gluten free bakery!
ps: as there is no gluten and no preservatives, make sure you store anything you buy on a sealed container or freeze them (I slice and freeze my country bread) and will last for some time! Enjoy it!
Love Asbury Kitchen! Breakfast is my fav meal of the day, and OC def has a lot to offer when it comes to breakfast/brunch! My boyfriend has celiacs (gluten free allergy) and this is our go to! Equipped with a separate fully Gluten Free menu, gluten free desserts, and accommodating staff. There were so many options we’ve never seen at other places (gluten free eggs benedict— pictured) and so much more that we need to go back and try— gluten free almond pound cake- yes please! I got a regular Jersey Eggs Benedict which was absolutely delicious and he got the same made gluten free and we shared a stack of gluten free pancakes with fresh strawberry and crispy bacon. Everything was made to perfection!!! Cozy and clean atmosphere, friendly staff and lots of options! Highly recommend for breakfast/brunch and especially for any friends with allergies!
Ate here twice during our weekend. it’s a fun spot with so many different hot dog options. For us the best part was how awesome they are with allergies - our son is wheat free/gluten free so the fact he could get essentially anything on the menu was so exciting. Chili dog with cheese? Sure. Mac n cheese! Or a brownie ! They’re super careful here. And “Tommy” is so lovely, fun, considerate and clearly enjoys his shop!
I wish more places made the same effort for allergy folks!
I remember back when they were half the size and it is clear why they had to double! The food is excellent and they even have a gluten free/vegan menu!
Love true foods ! Waitress was very accommodating for my daughter order who just wanted a gluten free pizza with red sauce and vegan cheese . Love the lavender matcha ! I always order that and so many vegan options. First time trying the vegan cookie and ice cream was delish !
Thank you, Kizbee's! Jenna helped me choose the perfect flavors and decorations for two graduation cakes - her knowledge of the products being requested as well as her professional recommendations were extremely helpful. Both cakes were absolutely delicious - most of our guests could not believe they were gluten free! And our dietary restricted guests really appreciated the ability to enjoy delicious desserts at our event. I would highly recommend Kizbees Kitchen, and we will definitely continue to order from Jenna for all our special events!
I’ve eaten here safely 4 times with celiac (very sensitive to cc) I love the wings, fries, and fried Brussels! Can be a longer wait for a table but worth it for the extensive gf menu and safe prep.
A very pleasant shop. There is a lot packed into the space, but in a good way. Excellent use of shelving and floor space.
If you are looking for gluten-free cake mixes, dips, snacks, honey, and other foods, Nola B's has got you covered. There is also a selection of chilled items and baked goods.
They also have some fun knicknacks like small creamer pitchers, quirky signs & hand towels, and candles.
Whether you are searching for gluten-free or not, it's worthwhile to stop by Nola B's.
Upon arriving, we received a not very warm welcome which set a not nice tone for the evening. However, things quickly became a bit disappointing. When being seated, the host mentioned he saw the Resy notes indicating someone in our party was plant-based and gluten-free and asked if we’d like that menu. If it was already noted in the reservation, it would’ve made sense to have those menus ready at the table or automatically offered. Otherwise — what’s the point of specifying it ahead of time?
Our server, Mary, unfortunately wasn’t very knowledgeable about the plant-based, vegan, or gluten-free options. She seemed unsure of the menu, had to double-check multiple times, and lacked confidence in answering basic questions about ingredients and modifications. It’s frustrating as a guest when you take the time to add dietary preferences in advance specifically to avoid situations like this.
The veggie soup was far too salty and unenjoyable, though the eggplant parmesan was actually pretty good. The Saratoga still water isn’t a personal favorite and it was the only option, so I had to add several lemon wedges just to make it palatable.
The most disappointing moment was when I asked about plant-based desserts. Mary seemed confused by the request until my mom clarified by saying “vegan dessert,” which then prompted her to bring over a tray of pre-made dessert shooters to choose from. Honestly, that felt off-putting. Who knows how long those had been sitting out or how many tables they’d been to that night. It just wasn’t an appealing or thoughtful presentation, especially for a restaurant that prides itself on seasonal and fresh offerings.
The restaurant was nearly empty given it was the 4th of July, so it would’ve been an ideal opportunity for attentive service. I’m hoping this was just an off night, perhaps due to holiday staffing. I might give them another try on a regular evening to see if it was an isolated issue — but based on this visit, it definitely missed the mark.
My experience here was definitely average; 2.5 stars seems more accurate that 2. It looked nice from the outside and and the menu offerings looked good when we previewed online,
FOOD: my gluten free buttermilk chicken sandwich and gluten free fries were good.
However, my husband ordered the coffee (not good) and the cheesesteak sandwich, which he said tasted like steak ums. (So quality for the price was a mixed bag for us.)
SERVICE: A major plus was the hostess and busser. The hostess was super friendly and gracious, and the busser (who also appeared to refill water) was observant and quick to take care. The server was knowledgeable of the menu (I’m gluten free, so that’s important to me), but her quality of service completely paled in comparison to the other staff.
ATMOSPHERE: I really thought it would be great (and loved this antique cash register at the hostess stand!) But the vibe felt pretentious and put-on; plus, the place was unexpectedly loud. Like the acoustics of the place weren’t set well or sound didn’t absorb well; every sound seemed magnified.
I don’t usually write such long reviews, but this experience was so strange to me.
Overall, I’d order gluten free takeout from there, but that’s about it. When we choose to go out to eat, we want to love the experience; this review probably makes me seem like a “Karen”, but I’ve had a lot of serving experience and am pretty understanding. Blue Plate just didn’t meet the expectations that they set with the way they present themselves as an establishment.
just went there last weekend, it was amazing! They use A&A pretzels, and Fox and Sons mixes for funnel cake and corn dogs. We tried pretty much everything except pizza on the menu!
Fantastic place to eat. As long as you get in before 9, we haven’t had to wait. Food was great. Prices were right and they took my wife celiac (cannot eat gluten) seriously! For sure service we appreciate at the beach.
This place is my favorite place ever! Best gluten free options and best Italian food in general. Vicky was very helpful and attentive, would always recommend
I love this spot; I’m gluten free and always suspicious of restaurants that say they have good gluten free options. But their French toast was incredible! Coffee was hot and fresh, it was very loud so if you’re noise sensitive I would recommend going at a lighter trafficked time of day or sit outside.
The waiter and hostess were fabulous and helpful.
This place is amazing! I have celiac disease and have a hard time finding safe places to eat. I had the gluten free chicken tender platter and chocolate chip cookies, which were both unbelievable. The wait staff was incredibly kind and attentive and explained that everything was prepared separately using a dedicated fryer. My gluten consuming family also loved their food. My husband said it was the best pastrami he’s ever had and my son had an “extra cheesy” grilled cheese. The owner visited our table and introduced himself. Cannot recommend this place enough!
I ordered from Busy Bee on UberEats and was very pleased with my order! The breakfast burrito was so tasty and filling; that plus a slice of banana bread made two meals for me! I really appreciated that the sauce is dairy free! The gluten free tortilla was tasty and did not fall apart. The granola and banana bread were both very tasty as well! I'm gluten free, dairy free, and pescatarian, and I'm so happy to have found this restaurant that has tasty and nourishing options!
Had a burrito on a gluten-free wrap. Latte was great as well as the vegan/dairy-free/gluten-free banana bread.
As a pilot sometimes I don’t have enough time to dine in restaurants. They were on UberEats and would recommend to anyone local!
Also Joanne called me during my order prep for a question about my Latte. Their attention to detail was not expected but very welcomed!
Vegan Pastry Lab is one of our favorite places to go to. Everyone at home is obsessed with it. We end up spending so much money every time we visit because we just want everything they have to offer. My husband and I are gluten-free, and the gluten-free vegan treats never disappoint. We love their "cheesecake," their PB & J Bars, their Brownies, their cupcakes, their cookies, they SCONES (I just discovered these), literally everything. My girls are obsessed with the cinnamon rolls, the croissants, we literally cannot get enough of this place. The people that own the place and work there are all super sweet. I've also had breakfast sandwiches there (vegan and gluten-free) and they have coffee drinks too. If you haven't checked it out, you need to.
