The Cookhouse

CLOSED!!! They are shut down.

We walked in as a party of 7(4 adults & 3 kids). The manager, a heavy set white guy, originally said they could only seat us if we were done by 4p, it was 2:30p when we arrived. Apparently he needed the table. We picked this restaurant because my wife has celiac disease, & their website said the have GF options. As we are seated we notice the whole upstairs is empty, & the restaurants lower level is only about 50% full. The waiter, young white guy w/ animal skull tattoo on his left forearm. Seemed like he could care-less about my wife's dietary needs, asked if the Cobb salad has gluten-free dressing. He said, "whatever it comes with" ... Due to that response, my wife ate her salad with no dressing. Since the waiter couldn't answer if the dressing was GF or Not.

The only GF menu is apparently online. The laminated menus show no specifics about gluten free options.

Over all our party was not impressed. The food quality has gone down. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich, it was mostly gristle. Another adult ordered the bbq flatbread, it was soggy, not crisp at all.

Our food didn't arrive till 4p, idk who was waiting for the table. There was no large party there other then us.

Not happy overall.

Before I was diagnosed with CD I LOVED this place. Now I can't eat there. The BBQ sauce is NOT gluten free. I got sick every time I ate there and I finally figured out why. I have gone and got the chicken with no bbq sauce and I didn't get AS sick. (Still had a bad stomach ache after though) I stay away from there now. Non GF friends would LOVE it though.

Not very accommodating for those with gluten allergies. I'm celiac and I would not eat there.

BBQ sauce is not gluten free which is a real disappointment

Waitress was knowledgeable of gluten allergies. Bummer that you can't have the BBQ sauce because it's made with flour
