Longboard Bar & Grill

GF items are marked on the menu and there is a dedicated gluten-free fryer, but the kitchen is shared and staff do not always change gloves or clean surfaces between orders. The dedicated fryer may not be available on very busy days. Multiple coeliac diners report no reaction, but cross-contamination risk is present. Call ahead to confirm fryer status.
