Wood-n-Tap Bar & Grill

Stopped in for lunch on a road trip and was happy with the choice. I had the buffalo chic burger on a gf roll - it was delish! Would recommend.

This place has a great GF menu, plus even offers more than a dish of ice cream for dessert. Cupcakes! So excited when I saw that on the menu. They also offer my favorite beer alternative on tap, Angry Orchard hard cider. Bonus points for that.

Pretty good gf menu.. Gf bun for burgers

My friend just got diagnosed with celiacs. I have a gluten intolerance. The other two people in our party had no restrictions. They said none of their fries are gluten free but they didn’t know of any sides were gluten free. I got a salad with a side of tator tots because I figured it’d be fine for me because using the same fryer doesn’t normally bother me. My celiac friend got a burger with a gluten free bun. When they brought it to our car, I asked the man to make sure it was gluten free and he said he thinks so cause the other ones are brioche. We go home and the salad is great and all is well. I eat my tator tots and my celiac friend literally was just diagnosed so he didn’t know his limitations and wanted to see if he could eat three tator tots or if he’d have a reaction. He felt sick immediately. About an hour and a half later, I got sick from the tator tots and I never get sick from cross contamination. Idk if it’s cause they have beer battered fries so that made it worse or what but I was having bad stomach cramps, stomach gurgling and not feeling well. Wouldn’t recommend this for celiacs and hesitant for gluten free customers unless you stick to salad.

no GF beer, ones in stocks are not true GF beer

They have several gluten free items on the regular menu, when I asked waitress about them she said we have a separate gluten-free menu and brought it to me.

Have been here many times without getting sick. Food is decent but they always have long waits.

Gluten free roll for my kids burger were really good. I order mine gluten free now too and I’m not gluten free

Got takeout, ordered the cheeseburger pizza and a salad. Specifically said no croutons or bread. The order was even repeated back to me. My husband brought it back to the house and it was loaded with croutons. Pizza was definitely gluten free (could tell by the crust and comparing to my husbands) and very good. The manager did refund us the price of the salad.

the food takes a while to serve

Love them .. they have a whole gluten free menu and are very understanding of food allergies.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is now our regular stop on our way up to Vermont!

Glutton free hamburger pizza is the best

Celiac friendly?

No

I was so disappointed to find croutons in the salad I ordered off the gluten free menu! update: I've ordered from there a bunch more times and most times my order is correct and I haven't gotten sick. i always double check my order though. I'm adding another star.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious gf options for food and drinks. Really knowledgeable staff.

Every time I eat here for GF I get sick. Great staff and I think they are knowledgeable but I really think there is just cross contamination here!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Dedicated GF menu. No GF fryer. GF burger buns are awesome and staff is educated on what is safe to order.

Celiac friendly?

No

Absolutely no-go for celiac disease, as the company itself says on their website. ALL items are made in shared spaces, using shared oils, fryers, and utensils. Even salad is contaminated by gloves. A friend who has worked at multiple locations is always shocked that gluten-free people keep going back because the company has always (going back to mid-'00s) gone out of its way to alert celiac patients not to eat there. The most I've ever ordered is soft drinks. Please, do NOT eat at any Wood-n-Tap if you have celiac!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

THEY HAVE GF CHOCOLATE MOLTEN LAVA CAKE!!!! This is my favorite place to eat in the area! I have to travel from Maine to CT and I always look forward to stopping at Wood-n-Tap :)

the food was delicious, but I ordered a gluten free bun and received a regular one. as I am sure many of you know, this is a major issue for those with celiac or allergies. when I brought it to my servers attention, she didn't seem all that concerned about it and I didn't eat the burger after I had removed the bunch from the plate and she didn't take anything off our bill. now I'm not looking for a handout and I work in restaurants so I know how it is, that sometimes things happen. But if someone has an allergy YOU ALWAYS alert the kitchen staff. And if YOU scree up and serve someone the wrong food, you at the very least take it off the bill. Be careful eating here, I wouldn't want to see anyone get sick.

They state they are gluten-friendly, not gluten-free, but I did not have a reaction and the food is great!

Celiac friendly?

No

As a Celiac, it's hard to find places to eat. I called ahead of time because their GF menu has the disclaimer that there may be cross-contamination. I spoke with Christine, the manager, and she was very helpful in telling me what was safer than others (salads - not safe because of the crouton handling). She said she would be there when I got there and she personally took my order and everything was great. However, if you don't have that kind of attention, it may be tough. They steam the broccoli with the pasta water. The GF pizza is cooked right with the regular pizza. They do have a dedicated fryer, but the safest option is to use the grill - they have a section where nothing is sauced - request to have your meal cooked on that section.

Excellent service and great gluten free options yum!!! You must try!!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Makes awesome gluten free pizza

Have to ask for the separate gf menu but there is quite a bit on it including gf burger buns, pizzas, and even a couple deserts. I recommend going for a burger.

gf menu. good meal

The options are unlimited. The gluten free rolls are perfect for a burger. The gluten free fries are awesome!

Great selection of gluten free items- only thing missing here is a dedicated fryer for fries.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Attentive. Great service. My daughter and I have celiac And neither of us had any negative effects. Tried the pizza and chopped steak salad.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I've only had the pizza so far, but it was good.

Celiac friendly?

No

Got glutened, and very badly at that. Service was slow.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I love their GF sweet potato fries made in dedicated fryer.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My "go to" for a large GF menu. Love the portobello burger and dessert option. When I want to dine out and need a no brainier, I go here. They even lost GF cocktails.

Ask to see the gluten free menu when dining...they have tons of options. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger on a gluten free bun. The gluten free bun was delicious I had to question if it was gluten free it was that good! The waitress was so knowledgeable and compassionate about my celiac issue. I will def. be going back there to try other gluten free options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Nice place. GF Menu is called GLUTEN FRIENDLY which tends to scare people. They have GF buns and desserts, the GF turkey burger was great ( had it on lettuce bed - the GF bun is $2 extra). They also carry a few GF beers (too bad I have a ways to drive!) --- recommend the Omission IPA.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Lots of good options!

Gluten free white pizza is very good. Staff is very helpful! Chocolate raspberry cupcake is amazing!

Had the GF Salmon... Amazing!!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I'm giving it one star because we were looking for a gluten free pizza. The pizza was really expensive and we were not happy with it at all.

Boys loved the cheese pizza. Adults enjoyed burgers. The GF buns were really good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Pretty extensive GF menu. I had a bacon burger that was cooked perfectly; very good. The GF bun was not great, but not the cooks fault; they're never great. This one was sweet; odd. A few GF beers avail too. I haven't had a burger and a beer in awhile, overall I'm very happy!

Their burgers/ GF buns are so good! I also got the pizza here once and that's wasn't bad either.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Top notch GF restaurant bar. They carry 3 GF beers, have GF rolls for their burgers and 1 of their signature desserts is even GF. The staff is knowledgeable and GF friendly.

Very good. They even had a gluten free cupcake dessert!

Gluten free buns are great but staff is not knowledgeable

Gluten free hamburger buns taste great! There is even gluten free beer! Gluten-free menu is not extensive but if you want a quick bite this place is great

They have a good number of gluten free options.

Wood n Tap's gluten-friendly menu with several GF beers demonstrates that they get it. I would imagine someday their freedom fries will be cooked in a gluten free dedicated fryer. The food and service are good.

As other wrote, this location does not do a good job at gluten free. I live in rocky hill and have had food orders messed up at least twice. I have heard southington does a great job though.

delicious burgers and buns! friendly staff, nice atmosphere, awesome drinks too. Raspberry chocolate cupcake was all out, but I heard it was delicious.

Great gf selection including pizza and burgers w gf bun. Great atmosphere and price .

Loved wood and tap to begin with, they have a lot to choose from but have had food come out not gluten free twice at separate locations after reminding server and ordering from gluten free menu. The staff isn't very careful. Very disappointed since they have such a good selection.

Food and service are excellent. I really enjoyed the GF BBQ Chicken pizza. Salad was cold and crisp. Servings were big.
