Village Tavern

So I have to go here for a rehearsal dinner and I’m not eating because of all the bad celiac reviews and also I got sick very from them very recently. The groom called the manager and asked if outside food/snacks would be okay since I have other medical conditions. The manager got mad and said they are so safe and he won’t allow even a snack! It’s RIDICULOUS!! BOYCOTT this place

This is not safe establishment for anyone on a gluten free diet for medical reasons. Was assured food was prepared in a separate area, I went to sleep sick to my stomach and woke up with a migrane after consuming vegetables, grilled chicken and creme brulee.

I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone with Celiac disease. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Gluten free menu, assured me all steps were taken in preparation and I believe them. Very nice people, excellent service and great food. My experience was excellent.

Dedicated gluten free menu! Wood grilled chicken penne is my favorite!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The server immediately noticed that I had a gluten free menu in front of me, and assured me that he would take good care of me. I even forgot to mention "no croutons" on my salad, but it came out with no croutons. I had Bbq chicken pizza, which was good. I've had better gluten free crust, but overall it was quite good. I even got creme brule for dessert! I will definitely be going back.

Great place for a special GF meal. Enjoyed the food

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I ordered an omlet, which you think wouldn't be to hard to make gluten free since it is naturally gluten free. I informed the server that I needed to eat gluten free, and my meal comes back with a nice muffin right on the plate. I did get another omlet, without a muffin but I couldn't trust them after that. They don't seem too concerned with keeping people safe, I won't be going back.

Celiac friendly?

No

Excellent GF chicken pasta.

Their gluten free pizza was just OK but I did appreciate a full gluten free menu and knowledgable staff.

The spaghetti squash is awesome! Several choices and everything looked good!

Had lunch here on our first visit to Winston-Salem – amazing food, GF menu with lots of great choices, and flexible “from scratch” kitchen. Server was very knowledgeable about GF needs and took great care of us. “Certified GF Safe Spot.” Indoor and outdoor seating – we really enjoyed our outdoor table. Can’t wait to come back here on our next visit!

Village tavern is great 👍 The server was a little short about questions and clarifications, but was just very informative and willing to answer any questions. There is a pretty thorugh gluten free menu! I would double check to make sure everything is on the up and up once you get your food, but they have very good customer service and will get a manager to answer any questions the server might not be able to answer :)

Managed to handle my celiac incredibly well! Staff was very knowledgeable and careful, and they had a large gluten free menu! They were also able to independently accommodate my girlfriend’s dairy and peanut allergies.

They even had a manager stop by to make sure our allergies were well accommodated.

We requested the gluten free menu and had the GF BBQ Chicken pizza and then the chicken sandwich with the GF bun. The bun was delicious and arrived still in the package.

My husband said his grilled chicken spinach salad with honey mustard was the best salad he has ever had. The tavern salad was also excellent, as were the pizzas. They were thin crust and delicious. The teens liked their entrees.
