Barnwood Restaurant

Do not go here if you have celiac!! They do not understand what it means to have a serious food allergy and are not willing/do not try to make any accomodations.

Their menu states gluten free french fries and gluten free pizza, but it also says on their menu that they do not have a separate prep station.

Their french fries are not gluten free. They not only are fried in the same fryer as food containing gluten, but they also had a coating on them that was very questionable.

I ordered a side salad that came with croutons on it despite me asking the server to let the kitchen know I have a gluten allergy, and when I asked for a new salad they brought me back the exact same salad,on the exact same plate, they just took the croutons off. You could clearly see remnants form the croutons!! If I ate those crumbs I'd end up in the hospital. No thank you!

Online menu says they have a GF fryer but doesn’t indicate many other items besides fries that are GF so I called. Woman who answered was definitely annoyed by my basic questions. Said ignorant things like “the fries are gluten free but they’re made in a fryer with chicken so there’s breading.” When I asked her about the online menu saying the fries are gluten free she said they are and that the in house menus have a disclaimer saying it’s a shared kitchen space. We all know that folks with celiac can safely eat in shared kitchen spaces so long as there are cross contact protocols in place but it was obvious I wasn’t going to get any helpful information from this person. Glad I called before showing up so I could go elsewhere!
