Could you please send me a list of gluten free/celiac-friendly restaurants and eateries in and around Charlottetown?

Hi Glenn,

Dining on Prince Edward Island continues to evolve, making it easier than ever for visitors to find delicious gluten-free dining options. Many of PEI's signature foods are naturally gluten-free, including fresh lobster, oysters, mussels, potatoes, and dairy products, so visitors with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease can enjoy many of the Island's most famous culinary experiences.

For breakfast or a light lunch in Charlottetown, Leonhard's Cafe and Restaurant is a popular choice. The café offers a variety of made-from-scratch items, including gluten-free baked goods and sandwiches. Just steps away, Farmacy + Fermentary provides additional options for those seeking gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, or health-conscious meals.

FIf you're looking for lunch or dinner, Prince Edward Island's Lebanese restaurants are another excellent choice. Many traditional Lebanese dishes are naturally gluten-free and dairy-free, making them a great option for a variety of dietary needs. Cedar's Eatery in Charlottetown has been a favourite for locals and visitors alike for decades! 

Craving a classic Maritime meal? Brits Fish and Chips offers gluten-free fish and chips, along with other menu items that cater to guests with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities.

Many restaurants across Prince Edward Island are experienced in accommodating dietary restrictions and food allergies. When dining out, it's always a good idea to discuss your needs with your server so they can help guide you toward suitable menu options and advise on preparation methods.

Enjoy!

Chef Ilona Daniel
