Gluten-Free Restaurants near Essex, MA

“One of the best seafood restaurants in New England. On weekends extremely busy and crowded and ambiance is like eating in a bus station unless you bring your food outside. But these guys are totally impressive filling orders quickly-they have the process totally down. Fried clams and onions rings are amazingly fresh and portions are big. Good coleslaw. Chowder is a little too thin and milky. Free soda refills. Definitely worth a special trip.“

“A special place for me! I've come for many years and make the 45 min drive at least 1-2X a year. Food is delicious and I appreciate how they serve beer and wine! They also have a little ice cream / gift shop which is seasonal. Will definitely go back this summer for some lobster!“

“The Northshore breakfast sandwich is purely addicting and has become my occasional goto. However, I do feel that they get their counter staff from the RMV reject pile. If I'm paying $18 for a really good breakfast sandwich and a very average cold brew, I do not think it's too much to ask for a smile and to be thanked for my business. I was standing with three other customers and we were all in agreement.“

“One of the best out of the way places we've found in awhile and is it worth it! This place has the best sausage and gravy that I have ever had. Not white, sticky, over thickened but an off reddish brown, subtle flavor and wonderful over the homemade biscuits. The veggie omelet was perfectly done. Fresh veggies. Not overcooked, fluffy eggs and don't pass up the homefries. The staff is also wonderful, making this place just like home.“

“I absolutely love this place. It's hard to write down everything I love, lol. I started going here as a customer, and now I get to work here! The atmosphere is so inviting, the employees and the aroma of delicious baked goods greet you as soon as you walk in. There is everything you want in an Italian bakery, from Italian pastries to the most delicious sandwiches. Everything is homemade and made with love. 10 out of 10, I recommend this place to EVERYONE!Dietary restrictions: There are options for vegetarians, people who are gluten free and even a couple of vegan options!“

“Went in for breakfast today and picked up the cake for my fiances birthday. They were super busy, but the staff got everyone through quickly. Coffee and breakfast sandwiches were tasty, loved the bagels. We cut the cake tonight, it was moist and delicious. I barely got a pic because my sweetie was so anxious to cut into it. Thank you!Second visit was just as amazing. I had the Hot Cubano and strawberry paczki. Highly recommend!“

“A great spot to grab a breakfast bite! Their sandwiches are yummy and their tots are crunchy deliciousness! Highly recommend any of their baked treats and coffee too.Dietary restrictions: They have a gluten free option for bread and you can have any of the sandwiches over tater tots instead!“

“My wife and I found this place in late 2022, and were about to order our 6th cake with them since. They are so above and beyond and very gracious. The cakes are like art work and they have such creativity. You live locally to the northshore and particularly the Beverly- Salem area.. this is the place to make your desserts.“

“Pure Pastry is and always will be a part of our big moments in life. Pure Pasty has been at our wedding, our baby shower, all of our birthdays and all of our holidays. We look forward to Pure Pastry being at every event. I have celiac disease and my husband does not. We have had gluten free and non gluten free desserts. Everything from this company is delicious, unique and beautiful. No matter who you speak with from Pure Pastry everyone is kind and willing to help you.“

“Nice atmosphere to enjoy your treat with a coffee. Wonderful array of pastries , cupcakes and other goodies. Great coffee. Be prepared for a short wait in line at busier times. Well worth it.Order your next cake for holiday or special occasion and you will be delighted!“

“The ice cream is amazing I cannot believe it is so low sugar low fat. Highly recommend the salted caramel flavor. Service is great too you can taste the various flavors before buying. I highly recommend this place and it’s so close to Patton Park - the perfect spot to bring the kids after playing!“

“I’ve picked up many times and tried delivery for the first time today. And was fantastic it came nice and hot! Chz steak wasn’t soggy and no cold fries!! Usually don’t eat out hate paying for cold soggy food. First time was a hit hopefully if I do it again it stays the same. Why I don’t mind if I pay a tiny bit more for better quality. And driver does better when food is fresh!! Impressed tonight again if you like chicken soup yes I know it’s a sub shop but it’s homemade and it’s fantastic!!“
