Village Kitchen at Hartness

This place is fantastic! My wife has Celiac, so we are always skeptical of new places. The 2 head chefs here both have Celiac, so they take GF items very seriously. They have a completely separate fryer for all things GF. I had the Belgium waffle, and she had the chicken and waffles. Both dishes were delicious! The chicken was breaded in what seemed like cornmeal, but the flavor was so good. They also have a whole case of GF pastries. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Also the mimosas were top notch.

I am a very sensitive celiac so I asked about their kitchen safety. Was told both the owners were celiac and they prepared GF items in a dedicated area. I had the chicken and waffles for Sunday brunch - delicious and no reaction!

This restaurant is the best there is! They have many gluten-free options, including waffles, toast, pizza, muffins, cookies, and FRIED CHICKEN. I’m sure I am missing some, but if you need to go somewhere to eat gluten-free , this is the place to go.

If you haven’t been to the village kitchen, run there! The head and assistant chefs are celiacs so they know how to prepare your food safely. The fryer is dedicated gluten free and you can get a fried chicken sandwich, tots or fries. For brunch they have chicken and waffles. The menu is clearly marked for dairy and gluten free.
