New manager last time I went. Did not inspire confidence that the food I ordered was gluten free.

They have a separate gluten free menu. I ordered the turkey avocado sandwich and was really good. The side salad had pieces of croutons in it, which is why I didn’t give them 5 stars. Luckily, I saw them before I ate the salad.

The gf burger bun is delicious, however I wasn’t given lettuce and tomato with my burger even though it came with it. Knowledgeable about gf.

It was a pleasure to have a GF turkey club on a decent GF bun. If I lived in the area, I’d return to try other GF items.

I went in this weekend for dinner. My server seemed knowledgeable about celiac disease. I ordered off the gluten free menu and asked him to let the kitchen know that I have celiac. He did, and said that he can also flag allergy orders. The manager actually came out of the kitchen to ask me a question because the bleu cheese dressing isn't for sure GF - he wanted to make sure I knew that. I was really impressed that he did that. I had a great meal - wings and pizza. They have Angry Orchard cider on tap. I had a great experience!

Love this place. Awesome burgers on gf buns. Good crab dip appetizer just ask for veggies instead of bread. I wish they would dedicate a fryer so we could enjoy fries with the burgers.

Dedicated GF menu. Staff was knowledgeable about cross-contamination and easily answered all my questions. Ordered a burger on GF bun and mashed potatoes. Food was decent but most importantly safe. Would come back.

Excellent GF menu. I highly recommend the ahi tuna sandwich, even though the wasabi mayo isn't available GF. The Crispin hard cider is an excellent complement to the ahi.

My 17yo daughter went here today and despite explaining she’s was celiac and ordered gluten free food, was served from the regular menu. The first they took away immediately and her second dish they insisted was gluten free despite her showing them it looked very similar to the regular version. The worst was when the wait staff told her she look like she’d be fine when they realized the mistake AFTER she ate it. She has been violently ill all day. If you must eat here on a gluten free diet you must speak to the manager! We will never do so again.

Zero stars, but had to enter at least one. If you cannot eat gluten, do not go here. Twice in one year my wife has been served gluten despite having detailed discussions with the server about her allergy. After being assured that they would serve her gluten free food, they screwed up and served food with gluten. She had to go to the rest room and make herself throw up and will likely be in bed for the next three days. Manager was useless, just blaming server for entering order wrong. DO NOT EAT HERE.
