The menu marks gluten free options, but our server didn’t really accomodate my restriction. We ordered the charcuterie board with the crostini on the side, and they didn’t put them on the side; I ordered a burger with the gluten free bun and no side as it was fried in the same fryer as the onion rings, the burger came to our table with the side. Additionally, the server simply removed the side, but they had touched the burger already. Wouldn’t recommend it to celiacs or people who really need to avoid gluten.

Server was not very knowledgeable and did not seem concerned enough to follow up with kitchen about gluten feee options. Food came out wrong which was a little concerning as well. Unsure of cross contamination secondary to my daughter’s symptoms being more silent , but fairly sure it was not a safe location for her to eat.

They have a dedicated fryer and the fries were good. However, I ordered a Chicken sandwich on a GF bun and they served me a hamburger. The server took that back and quickly brought me the correct order. Too fast to have cooked a fresh piece of chicken. Was probably cooked ahead of time for salads. Dry, rubbery and small. Way too much bun for the chicken. Bun was not toasted or warmed and so it fell apart. My husbands regular meal wasn’t any better. Giving this 1 star for the fries otherwise would have given no stars.

I am Celiac. Had the summer soup, chicken sandwich on GF bun and French fries. The soup was good, the sandwich okay, but the bun fell apart which is natural for most GF buns. The non-loaded French foes were great and I did not get sick at all. Overall for where it is located, better than expected.

I asked if the two items marked GF (1 soup, 1 salad) were the only GF options and was told that both the wings and french fries are made in dedicated fryers; the menu has just not been updated with this information. I had BBQ wings after she verified that the sauce, as well as the blue cheese dressing were all gluten free. No issues (I have Celiac) and my meal was incredible. I was very impressed and pleasantly surprised!
