Review of Flatstick Pub

Ordered a root-beer I confirmed was gluten free online first. I mentioned I was celiac and confirmed again with them. The glass they served me, the push it face down on a sprayer they use with other beers… really? Just serve it in a bottle if you can’t handle glassware cross contamination… Someone at my table ordered fries, I noticed the menu said the fries were gluten free. I walked over and asked if the fries use a dedicated fryer because I am a celiac, he said “yes, the fries are safe”, I walked back and happily started eating. Moments later someone runs up correcting the first answer. “No! The fries are not safe! You have to ask us to make them safe. Those aren’t safe.”

I’m sorry, half effort gluten-free with a confused menu is worse than no options. Train your staff or take the “G” claim off your menu.
