How thrilling to find this gem! The menu is marked clearly with gluten free items. They have a dedicated GF fryer, with plenty of options! My husband and I enjoyed everything we tried, including Buffalo Chicken Dip (we ordered tater tots as well, which are phenomenal with the dip!), a flavorful bacon cheeseburger on what I believe to be an Udi's bun, and chicken bites tossed in a garlic parm sauce. YUM! The extensive cocktail menu is currently completely gluten free! The only disappointment was that the fries are not an option. It's a small place with tons of character and charm, and the servers seem knowledgeable and invested in their work, plus ready to give as much time and attention needed to answer questions and ensure that my order was completely gluten free. The only gluten free-related question my server didn't immediately have the answer to was researched quickly. It's been several days since I ate there so I'm beyond the possibility of having been 'glutened.' What a great experience, and a great place! I'm so excited to go back and try other options! My server, who I believe to be an owner, said they've been working on developing some additional GF items for the upcoming fall menu - how exciting!
