 Drafting Room is a nice local restaurant/bar for your beer enthusiasts. Obviously, as a Celiac, those beers are a no no (they don’t carry any GF beer to date) – but who knows what the future holds. My friends and I like to frequent the bar side on Tuesday nights to enjoy Pub Trivia. While none of the appetizers are gluten free as displayed on the menu, I can bring in my own sealed bag of tortilla chips and they will make the nachos for me (with all the cheese and fixin’s) using my chips.  I’ve never had a problem with them and I’ve had those nachos about a dozen times now. The waitresses are more than happy to work with you on food allergies (wonderful upbeat attitude), but be cautious about everything here. The first time I was ordering I was told she could make the nacho’s gluten free but it would take longer than a regular order of nachos. When I asked for clarification cause I couldn’t understand why – it turns out they were going to pick out all the wheat chips out of the wheat/corn mix. Obviously for anybody with a severe wheat/gluten allergy that’s a big no no. I made sure she realized that it would still make me sick, and that’s when she suggested to bring my own. There’s a Wawa right down the street, so just make a side stop and grab a bag!

I think some of the meals would be gluten free, you just need to work with them.

 They also have Woodchuck – Granny Smith in bottle form for those who are over 21 :)

 Note: This is only for the Spring House branch. I’ve never been to the Exton branch.
