I have eaten here several times, always enjoyed everything I had. Great Happy Hour prices and great servers. Our waitress said they take gluten allergies very seriously, they need to fill out a form and give it to a a manager. Items on menu are denoted “Gluten sensitive”. Menu also available online if you want to preview choices.

Their burger with the gluten free bun is perhaps one of the best I’ve had in this area. Definitely coming back for it!

Old Town Pour House is able to make any burger gluten free by either adding a GF bun or serving without a bun. Additionally, they had GF pasta available upon request. We ordered french fries as a side and the waiter notified us that the fries might be cooked in a fryer that also cooks gluten products. Overall they had great GF options!

The quality of the GF burger was excellent. There are plenty of GF options to choose from.

The wait staff is knowledgeable and willing to inquire with the chef if need be about the available GF options.

I put “celiac” note in my online reservation and the GM called me to let me know that they could not 100% guaranteed GF on the microscopic level because it was not a totally GF kitchen. He then came to my table when I got there to talk about options and how the kitchen is trained to do their best to avoid cross contamination. He was super empathetic and understanding as he said his wife has celiac. Menu items are denoted “gluten sensitive”, and there are not a ton of options available. I got the blackened salmon salad and it was delicious. I did not get sick. I would definitely recommend because they are knowledgeable staff and can take precautions. Fried food is NOT in separate fryer.

We ate here last night and I am not sick this morning! I had the bbq platter and the cauliflower Kung potato as an appetizer. They also have a few gf cider options and at least one beer. My server was not terribly knowledgeable but she did flag my food and when the kitchen brought it out they gave me my order first again noting the allergy (dairy) and gluten free food.

GF items marked on menu. My server was knowledgeable about preparation. I had a Burger on GF bun. Server said fries were made in shared fryer; substituted small side salad. Burger was pretty good but bun was very dry. Limited but interesting selection of ciders. Overall food quality a little above average for a place that’s primarily a bar.

Possibility for cross contamination, but they did state they had a gluten free fryer and the server wrote a red allergy card that must have been attached to the kitchen ticket. Felt very safe.

Clearly marked menu with a few appetizers (smoked wings, buffalo dip, and few others), salads, burgers, and entrees. Also a couple good cider options (including Two Fools!).
