Was able to get the taco plate with corn tortillas and the carnitas was very good.
The food was really good! The taco platter isn’t gluten free but they’ll make it with corn tortillas if you ask. A lot of the entrees (salmon!) and salads are gluten free as well. The staff was very knowledgeable and kept differentiating between the gluten free orders and the regular meals when they brought something from the kitchen.

Come for a show but eat first. Virtually nothing GF except salad.
Several options marked “gf” on the menu, server checked with kitchen to verify whether the daily specials were gf, overall a good experience. The winter quinoa salad was very good!
The frier is not safe--the server said there is cross contamination, despite what other reviews say. This means the only gf menu items are salads. Not worth a trip if you're gf, even though it's a nice atmosphere.
I have eaten here a few times over the past several years while vacationing in the area, and I have always had a good experience. They do not have a gluten free menu, but the servers are knowledgeable and check with the kitchen if there is any uncertainty. I have had green salads in the past, but tried the quinoa salad this time. It was delicious, and such a large portion that I had enough left over for dinner the next day (which worked out well since my non-celiac family was craving deli sandwiches). The grilled artichoke appetizer is an absolute must!
I enjoyed the corn meal pickled fries, sweet potato fries. They have a delicious southwestern salad but I hope they will add gluten free bread to their burgers! A great atmosphere and a couple of ciders on menu.
The offerings are much too slim to pay this place a visit for dinner or appetizers. If you are along for drinks, there is typically cider and always definitely great wine selections!
Not a ton of options, but loved the atmosphere and great service. We sat outside which was great. I had the Greek salad, was amazing. Also had the cider on tap, Wild Cide. Really enjoyed that cider so I have to see if I can find it!
I have been to Hopmonk many times, and have always enjoyed the experience. One person in our group yesterday has celiac disease. The entire staff was knowledgeable and accommodating of her needs. Our meals were ready to come out when someone in the kitchen realized her food may have been cross contaminated (the kiss of death for someone with celiac). They came out and apologized profusely, and remade ALL of our meals so that the other food wouldn't sit for too long. I was absolutely stunned and so incredibly appreciative of the awareness and attentiveness. I will forever be a fan! Oh, and the food is always SO yummy! Thank you Hopmonk!

Hopmonk is definitely not gluten free friendly. They have very little to offer and the staff isn’t very knowledgeable. They told me that one of their plates was gluten free when in fact it had a sauce that had wheat in it.
Not celiac safe. I did not feel safe enough to order food here. No conscientiousness shown at all. Cross contamination is a good bet.
No option for sandwiches to be gluten free other than no bun. Salads really only option posted as gluten free. Loud, inside and more sports bar than restaurant. They do have ciders to drink and a few options in the menu that are naturally gluten free.
This place is hit-and-miss for safety. Glad they added GF notations to menu, but the staff still doesn't seem well-educated about safe practices. The food is great, though, so I go when I can stand the thought of having to over-explain everything, and never when it's busy. Always a good spot for drinks and atmosphere, though.
I have celiac disease, and I am now sick as a dog. The salad was delicious, but I was starting to feel sick before we even left the restaurant.Definitely not safe enough for this celiac.
