Top 5 Gluten-Free Dining Spots to Enjoy in Qualicum Beach

My husband and I have been coming to Creekmore’s for years. We drink decaf (gasp!) which can be pretty lacklustre in many coffee shops. But Creekmore’s has served us consistently DELICIOUS decaf coffee every single time. I would defy anyone to tell that it’s decaffeinated coffee if they didn’t know before taking a sip! In fact, everything we’ve ever ordered there has been wonderful. The smoothies, breakfast sandwiches and wraps, specialty lunch wraps and soups, muffins, scones and, most recently their gluten free peanut butter chocolate chip cookies which will keep you full all day! We just love Lucie and the ladies at Creekmore’s. Unfailingly cheerful service every time, despite difficult post-pandemic conditions. They have had to adapt several times to changing health regulations in the past 3 years as well as coping with staffing shortages like every other small business, but they’ve met the challenge head on. Beautiful window boxes of flowers every year show how much care is taken at this little establishment. Looking forward to warmer weather to be able to sit outside on their comfortable patio again soon!

Absolutely amazing. Best burger I have ever eaten and they accommodated both Celiac and lactose intolerance wonderfully. You are not living if you have not had one of these burgers.

Gluten free options are always something our group looks for as a member has Celiac. Really love any menu items that are GF here, especially the desserts.

We had mother's day dinner here and it was unbelievable! From the warm greeting when we walked in the door, the beautiful ambiance, the delicious food and the personal hello from the head chef. We ordered the scallops (opted for the gluten free risotto substitute), the pork tenderloin, and the halibut - with the prawn fonue to start. Everything was cooked to perfection and everything came with lots of creativley cooked and presented vegetables. Some of the best meals we've had in a long time - will be back for the next birthday or anniversary for sure! Before you go walk down the hall of old photos and check out the old sitting room set up at the end - so many neat antiques and artifacts!

I came here for dinner about a week ago for the first time with a friend and I can honestly say that the staff were very accommodating, friendly, and their product knowledge was incredible. I had done the chefs tasting menu and every single dish was an abundance of well balanced flavours and the presentation was of each dish was so beautiful. I also have celiac disease and sometimes it’s hard for me to go to restaurants that have very many options for me and the team at this restaurant made sure every single dish was safe for me to have and accommodated my allergy to each course I had. Thank you I will definitely be back.
