Quite a few gluten free options, and they even have a separate fryer! I did have to check with the server a couple times to just to clarify things but once they were clarified everything was fine!

We ate there today and had an excellent experience. The staff was super pleasant and knowledgeable about gluten sensitivity. I am celiac and react quickly if a mistake is made. I had a delicious blackened chicken curry bowl. We will return. They have a pleasant patio as well.

Server was good on the food and I was given a gluten free menu. I chose the vegetarian nachos which were pretty average unfortunately as I love a good pub nacho when done well. Salty, just salsa, a mix of that fake nacho cheese, jalepenos, and some real cheese, thin sour cream on top. I ordered a side of guac. Wouldn’t recommend that dish but see others enjoyed their burgers.

I loved this place. I called ahead to verify, and the staff member on the phone assured me that they are able to acclimate celiac - apparently one of the managers has celiac. She marked it down on my reservation as well. The waitstaff were excellent and noted celiac on my order. They have a dedicated fryer and the food was fantastic. Definitely recommend!

Staff was knowledgeable and willing to double check ingredients for oats in gf buns (no oats, hooray!). The burger was excellent and my food was delivered separately by my server.

Will definitely be going back, great staff, cozy vibes, and delicious food! Also a great dog friendly patio for warmer weather.

Staff were well educated on celiac and our server even mentioned that a "celiac" label would be placed on my daughter's entire order to ensure that proper precautions were made by the kitchen staff. They have a dedicated GF fryer which is wonderful. All if our meals were absolutely delicious.

I love this place! The MOST DELICIOUS shoestring French fries and nacho chips from their dedicated gf deep fryer! and the garlic mayo dipping sauce is gf also! The food here is yum, and there are lots of gf options. I love this place. Yes it’s loud and noisy and super crowded during RedBlacks game nights, but if you go on a non-game night it’s much more relaxed. Service was excellent and quick.

The staff were very friendly and tried their best. We spoke to them they seemed quite knowledgable about gluten issues and celiac… But nevertheless my wife had a very bad reaction. I assume it was cross-contamination as the dishes we had did not have any gluten in them.

Great service and attention to detail. Our son has Celiac Disease and even at 15, is very careful about what he eats. They offer a dedicated fryer and special preparation for customers who have Celiac Disease. He was thrilled with his nachos, wings and yam fries, which we all shared.

GF bread and hamburger buns, dedicated fryer, gf bbq sauce and wings! Great food!! Staff was friendly and very helpful. They even asked about celiac so they could take extra precautions in the kitchen. Only downside when asking hostess about gf she handed us an allergy list for items on the menu and it looked as if there were only salads and one chicken dish that was gf. However when we sat down our waitress informed of us an abundance of GF options.
