Gluten-Free Restaurants in Mystic, CT

BySam

As a Connecticut resident I’ve been going to Mystic since I was a kid. It has a certain small town charm that’s perfect for visiting during the summer months.

And while Mystic is famously known for its seaport and aquarium, there’s also a wide selection of restaurants.

These Young Buns Doughnuts were delicious!

Because that’s what you’re here for right? As usual, I’ll provide all the best gluten-free restaurants you can find in Mystic, CT in the sections below.

Finding Gluten-Free in Mystic

Even though Mystic has a small population, it has a lot to offer in terms of dining. After all, Mystic is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Connecticut.

That’s good news if you’re looking for some GF restaurants. You can expect to find a lot of seafood in this historic New England village.

For example, if you’re craving a hot lobster roll on a gluten-free bun, you’re in luck! Most restaurants are located on Main Street, near the famous Mystic River Bascule Bridge.

I recommend parking your car on Water Street and walking around this area, as it’s easy access to restaurants and shops.
