We liked this restaurant…. They had GF clearly marked on the menu with many options. We had the Ruben GF bread with chowder and the Pad Thai and beet salad to start. Also they carry a GF beer.

My wife and I went here for our 20th wedding anniversary. We shared the Beet salad and then I had the chicken pizza and my wife had the cheese pizza. Gluten free option for both pizzas and the beet salad was already gluten free. My wife also had a Bloody Ceaser and she asked them to make it with out the Worcestershire Sauce to make it gluten free as well. All in all, it was a wonderful meal and a great little scenic town.

Lots if gluten-free options and delicious! Had pulled pork on a bun and so good! Waiter was super knowledgeable about Celiac and felt very safe eating there. Some yummy GF desert options but was too full after the meal ♥

Gluten free Putine! They made a GF Putine with sweet potatos in the oven. It was not on the menu but just for it was made.

Clean with an old vibe about it. Menu had a lot of GF options. Server was knowledgeable. Food was fresh and top quality (I kept looking at all the dishes coming out of the kitchen!). We popped in even though we weren’t that hungry so I just had the tomato basil soup. Unfortunately no GF crackers but the soup was amazing. Would highly recommend this restaurant in downtown. Server confirmed there was no dedicated deep fryer and that the daily soups were always homemade and gluten free.

I had home made bacon broccoli and cheddar soup with the brownstone burger. Their gf bun was actually good and didn’t fall apart when you ate it. I didn’t have any issues and it was delicious. Also offer gf desert.
