Tumbledown Farm to Fork

Came here to eat and asked the host stand for a gluten free menu, but they didn’t have one as one was currently “being made” however, limited gluten-free options.

They have gluten free pasta, but the only pasta dish on the menu had an Alfredo sauce, so I asked if the sauce was also gluten-free. They were “not sure” and after checking with the kitchen, the answer was they were “pretty sure it’s not gluten free.” Which gives me the absolute lowest confidence in their staff’s knowledge of GF ingredients. My partner had no issue with the GF burger bun (no fries; no dedicated fryer).

I ordered a GF pizza, which was a decent size for being gluten free but I do believe it’s cooked in the same oven as the other pizzas.

It felt miraculous that I didn’t get glutened on this visit but I don’t think I’ll be back.

Decent pub food options that accommodate with some gluten free options. Ask for a gluten free menu from the hostess before seating and it is a one page addition to the actual menu that lists what can be made gluten-free/gluten free menu offerings. No dedicated fryer so I did miss out on french fries. However the pulled pork we added to our order of nachos fully made up for not being able to have french fries. I had a burger that was ok. I believe they use udi brand buns which aren’t my favorite as they fall apart so easily but pretty standard bun option dining out. I had some kind of lemonade and vodka drink that was just ok, not necessarily something I would choose to order again. Over all I did feel safe because I made a comment to the server after ordering while waiting for my food to please hold the French fries if they are in a shared fryer and no French fries came out with my meal. I do think we had an off service night as it took a while to get ahold of the drink specials menu from the server and we were seated for a party of 3 at the back of the restaurant at a table that reminded me of a dining room table. I would be willing to give them another chance in the future as I did not get sick from my meal, there were enough options to choose from for dinner, and the live musician was enjoyable for a Saturday night out.
