Review of Dempsey's Brewery Restaurant & Pub

I called ahead and was told they could accommodate GF/celiac. When I arrived, the kitchen staff told the server to tell me that the “all the meat is gluten free.” I asked to speak with the chef to elaborate, and the Kitchen staff was unmotivated to check ingredients, declined to clean pans to ensure GF food, and were misinformed about celiac versus other food allergies. I did not get to ask if they could accommodate a salad or plain steak as gluten free because I was interrupted by the chef who said, “with celiac I assume you have your EpiPen here, but I wouldn’t trust anything because we throw pizza and throw flour all the time and I would want you to have to use your EpiPen”. The chef also told me I could not eat a granola bar while the rest of my family ate because “it’s a health code violation” (it’s not). Extremely uneducated staff.
