This establishment DOES NOT have a gluten free menu. When I requested one they said they do not have one, and that I need to ask the server about specific dishes. They do have gluten free options, including two ciders which are hard to come by in the area, but there's a lot of cross contamination (everything in the same frier, no gluten free designated taps or glasses, a lot of the food is cooked in beer, etc.) If you have an allergy I would avoid this place or relegate yourself to a salad drinking omission or two straight from the bottle, and steer clear of the glasses. I believe they cook everything in the same pots and pans, and even though the glasses looked freshly cleaned I noticed beer being served in the same glasses as the water. The chef insisted I would be fine, however my reactions started about a 15 minuets after eating there and continued through the night. Its a beautiful place with a great friendly staff and the food was delicious, under any other circumstances they deserve 5 stars! it's just not safe for anyone with an allergy, and I don't want anyone to get "glutened" like I was 8/2016
