Machine Shed Restaurant

Server Kristi was amazing, hashbrowns were over the top… my gal can’t stop talking about them. She’s been ignoring me, searching online for the recipe. Now I’m eating alone

Server was excellent, her daughter has gluten issues. They have a Gluten Sensitive menu, not full GF, so caution if really sensitive. I had the Maple Glazed Salmon & Sweet Potato. Comes with Cole Slaw and baked apples. I'm full.

They have a gluten free menu. It is limited in what they have (but there are definitely other options listed in the regular menu that are gluten free as well). I ended up getting their all you can eat breakfast buffet which is awesome, for you can pick what you know you can have vs picking off the menu and having to substitute. The waitstaff know their menu and are super helpful. The only downside is there are no drinks on the menu(the only drink menu was alcoholic, but it was separated the others) they have other drinks, but don’t list them on the menu for whatever reason. I ended up with only water for that reason.

Ordered off the gluten free menu but the dish came with a side of bread included, I had to ask if it was gf (hence ordering the gf menu?) and it wasn't. Waitress wasn't very knowledgeable about GF options and asked if I wanted gravy which to me was strange. I felt very dismissed and I felt not very welcomed. I would say if you're brown and celiac, maybe skip this place.
