This was right across from our hotel. This restaurant is seafood-focused. I'm allergic and intolerant to most seafood but they do not put it in the fry fryer, which is dedicated gluten free! The owner and the waitstaff was seriously knowledgeable about allergens and prepared to discuss things. They say "gluten friendly" because the cooking surfaces might be shared but they are very careful. Most dishes can be prepared gf, including the beer battered fish and chips. They use gf beer. It was amazing! The fries are also amazing! I was just so pleased, it tasted like normal. Good normal. My boyfriend had a haddock special and the seafood chowder and he enjoyed both.

Tried here for lunch on a Wednesday in January. Arrived about 11:40 and the place was pretty full…read morewith all the seats taken. Luckily, the café has overflow tables outside their side door in a common lobby area of the strip mall. I found the chairs a bit wobbly though (the style), so ended up standing up to eat, since the wobbliness was too distracting for me to enjoy my food. Anyway, the inside of the café is very nice with warm colors, lots of wall décor items and various local small business items for sale, such as jewelry, scarves, artwork, etc. Staff are quite friendly. I tried the ginger carrot soup, a daily special, and it wasn't bad. Had a strong oregano taste I found, was thick and very filling. My side of cranberry almond pasta salad also wasn't bad, good flavor, but nothing overly memorable. My 'skinny squirrel' latte (hazelnut flavor and something else?) was good but I could barely finish it after the two food items. I'd go back here another time for just a drink and baked item maybe, since they don't have a regular permanent meal menu. The sandwich/wrap item of the day was ham and cheese and I'm vegetarian, so I couldn't get that. If I wanted a sandwich though, I'm sure they could make something...I just didn't ask to see. Prices are pretty standard for an independent place. It came to $35 for myself and my mother to both have combos with lattes, which sounded like a lot at first, but would cost that much at Starbucks for similar items. I just would recommend going here when it's not lunch time, to have a better chance at getting a regular table and non-wobbly chairs. Lol
