It made me so happy to have gluten free fried shrimp and french fries. My husband said his clams were great and the non gf blueberry cornbread was delicious.

My spouse and I thoroughly enjoyed dining at Spinnaker's, especially since they offered a dedicated gluten free menu. It is very hard to find a restaurant with dedicated fryers and prep stations for gluten free diners. The majority of food on the menu can be made gluten free, which is a huge plus!!! When we went to order, they asked immediately if anyone in our party was gluten intolerant and it made ordering much smoother. The food and service was delicious. The gluten free chicken tenders were to die for and perfectly made. The fried shrimp were plump and well made. The service was fast and friendly. We would certainly go back.

My husband is gluten-free and has been missing fish and chips when he discovered this place. The portions are huge and the quality is 10/10. Highly recommend and we will be back!

This is not the same lobster roll I ate and reviewed two years ago. Two years ago it was good. This one was fantastic! A true gasm in your mouth. Fresh lobster obviously just caught and it was like John the fisherman himself delivered it to me fresh off the boat. I was worried about the lemon on top cause that’s normally to cover up sub par frozen lobster meat. This was not the case. Didn’t need the butter or teeth to eat. Was amazing! I will be back! Thanks fam for a fantastic lobster role experience I will not be soon to forget!

Love, love that there are so many gluten free options! I had the gluten free fried haddock sandwich and fries. The haddock was perfect, the bun was good as far as gluten free bread can be and the fries were delicious. I'm so glad I found this on facebook!

This roadside restaurant makes fresh made to order food that tastes amazing. They're super friendly and informative and can accommodate gluten-free diets for those that need it. You order outside but there is seating inside or out the inside was very clean and comfortable. All of the food we tried was delicious I highly recommend the crab roll everything about it was great I would have eaten three of them if money was no object but seafood is never cheap, especially great seafood like this. The fried seafood basket had full-size scallops and shrimp which were perfectly cooked and tasted amazing and the kid's chicken tender basket came in a cool Chevy Belair basket. The tenders must have been great because I never got the chance to try them, my son devoured them. I will return here for sure the next time I'm in town.

Had fried clams that were both gluten and dairy free (restaurants often use buttermilk to batter seafood). They were fresh and cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. The lobster was cooked to perfection, too!
