All the nostalgia for this place from when I was in high school. When we were passing through I stopped for dinner. Very kind waitress who, though she was unclear about the allergen protocols, retrieved her manager promptly.
The manager took our celiac diagnoses (my mother and mine) very seriously and brought us a printed menu identifying all the gluten-friendly items and any special preparations that needed to be made (such as mashed potatoes, but no gravy, when they are usually served together).
I ordered the chili (which has always been a favorite), steamed broccoli and a baked potato. My mother ordered a grilled chicken BLT on a GF bun. The rest of our family ordered from the regular menu.
Our food took slightly longer to arrive, but the manager did come to update us that they were in process, apologized for the wait, and explained that the delay was because they were doing extra cleaning and taking extra precautions. I’m always happy to wait a bit for that news! In the end, it only took about 15-20 minutes for our food to arrive.
The food was tasty and the atmosphere casual. I would recommend this location for anyone who is willing to advocate for themselves and can be patient with the slight delay.
