I had GF fish and chips a week ago! Oh so good! They are very well versed in GF. So many options on the menu. Great staff and atmosphere.

Perfect place to go in Gardener! They were very well with gluten and celiac. Everything on the menu could be made gluten free except the NGF next to the product. Their kitchen has a separate fryer and oven for gluten free requested items. The manager brings out the food to you, and even had the little allergy stick. Definitely recommend!

Most items are now GF on the menu. They have a separate fryer. So much has been changed in the last year. I've ordered everything from Chicken Parm to Fried Scallops. They take great care when you tell them it's an allergy. It comes with an allergy stick in your food.

Almost their entire menu can be made GF. The items that CAN'T be made GF are labeled "NGF". The fish tacos were 👌🏻 and were brought out by the manager separately.

Terrific dinner here tonight! Our server was well-versed in Celiac safety protocols and went over the menu with my son. Dedicated fryer. Great options for my whole family. We will definitely be back!

They got a new menu and seemed pretty unclear about what could be gluten free. They assured me that most things were gluten free but pointed out multiple errors on their new menu. They said they do have fully a gluten free pizza. I have been so sick from it the rest of the day - my exact gluten reaction.

A decent selection of items that can be made gluten free. It's 50/50, great or not great (missing ingredients it is supposed to have, wraps/sandwiches too wet and fall apart, skimpy pizza toppings with too much crust). No gluten free beer, but they make their own gluten free hard cider.

Amazing food and excellent service. They have a separate gf frier. I had the a brunch item, a skillet hash made with short rib, potatoes and onion, topped with egg. It was one of the tastiest dishes I've ever had in a restaurant. Great atmosphere too. Highly recommend!

Waitress was very helpful in telling me what ordering the gluten free options would be like. I got fajitas with no tortilla was like a rice bowl and very good. Waitress doubled checked my order. Asked chef great experience
The spinach artichoke dip with tortilla chips was amazing !!! The fajitas bowl ( no tortilla) was good. Waitress was very clear about what it would be.
Nice establishment. Friendly. And my husband loved his gluten filled options. lol.

Got the gf Mac n cheese without pulled pork, I had no reaction and the staff was helpful , she brought my food out separately. Menu is “gluten sensitivite” not gf.
We were traveling through this area and it was recommended by the person we were visiting, so we stopped. I was a little hesitant because of their gluten "sensitive" menu. They do not have a dedicated fryer, so the wings and fries are not Celiac safe. I ended up ordering the broiled haddock sandwich on a gluten free roll. It was very good! We would go back if we are ever in that area again!
Yes
They have a fantastic gluten sensitive menu. Food is always great! Full bar and some GF beer and cider too. Enough good options for all.
Yes
Very good gluten free menu. Enjoyed the salmon tonight. Looking forward to coming back again.
They use the same fryolator and tell you the fries are gluten free which tells me they don't get it. not Celiac friendly in my opinion.
I have to disagree with Sally. Yes the Gardner Ale House has a GF menu. However it is full of areas of cross contamination. The GF menu offers french fries (both reg and sweet potato), mashed potatoes as well as rice for sides. After speaking with our waitress, who by the way was great, if the fries are cooked in same oil as everything else. She spoke with the kitchen staff who came back and said "yes fries are cook in same fryer, mashed potatoes have gluten in them. the only thing I can offer that is safe would be steamed broccoli."
The GF menu also shows nacho's and chx wings. I did not ask how these are prepared. I just assume since the fries are cook in same oil as everything else that the chips and wings are too. Along with anything else that is fried.
My opinion on the Gardner Ale House is they do not fully understand Gluten Free, and the cross contamination issues that can make people sick.
No
This has long been a favorite of ours, with a variety exellent beers and very good food. Since I was only recently diagnosed with celiac disease I was grateful to find that they have put together a gluten-free menu and show awareness of the issues of cross-contamination.
Yes
