The only thing this place has going for them is they have cider on tap. (Pour it yourself.) Most were all head so that tells me either their system needs to be recalibrated or the kegs needed to be changed.

Ambiance was depressing. No one was in there on a Saturday night. The staff didn’t seem happy to be there. Bartender had an attitude. We asked what was GF and she said “our menu is right here”. We asked again and she said “clearly you can have whatever doesn’t have bread or breading”. When we mentioned the beer’s head she said we were probably pouring it wrong.. I used to bartender for years.

My thoughts- don’t waste your time.

I’ve always loved Decent People Taproom- it’s a self-serve taproom with 30+ beer, cider, and wine options. They also have a full bar. As someone who loved beer (pre-Celiac), it hurts a little to come here and see all the options that I shouldn’t have. Buttttttt, they always have at least 4 ciders on rotation, as well as some wine/sangria/sparkling wine options on tap as well. I didn’t think I was going to eat here, but our server was very knowledgeable about what was available GF. She steered me away from any fried items (no dedicated fryer), but informed me that they did have GF buns for the hamburgers and sandwiches. ASK, because the menu is not marked nor does it list GF options. Y’all. Their hamburgers are DELICIOUS. Cooked to order, and come out flagged so that you know it’s GF. I got a side of Brussels sprouts, and everything was so good that I didn’t miss the French fries. French fries are my favorite food group, so that’s saying something. They’re locally owned and we’ve always had phenomenal service and food here. Check them out!
