Review of Martindale River Cafe and Mercantile

I came here with some friends for an afternoon lunch and did not have an adverse reaction.

Ordered turkey club sandwich with GF bread. The owner assured me he would use a separate prep space and did not toast the bread. They carry chips that were gf and the only other option that is gluten free on the menu is maybe the omelette.

Had great service, food tasted good, and it’s a beautiful space!

I would not describe this establishment as one geared towards accommodating gluten free options (has pastries, charcuterie boards, deli meats and shared prep space for the sandwiches) but considering its location, I was so relieved and will come back.
