Colebrook Tavern

IF YoU ARE GLUTeN FREE DO NOT EAT HERE! I strongly beg that if you are unable to eat gluten, please do not eat at this restaurant. On three separate occasions I was given a regular bun when requesting a gluten free bun with my gluten free meal as I have an allergy. The first two times I caught it, they remade my meal, and I was fine. The third time I suspected the bun was yet again wrong, the waitress reassured me it was fine, but it looked different than their gluten free rolls. Someone who is gluten free knows the different in taste, texture and look of regular vs gluten free. I took one bite and knew right away it was not a gluten free roll. I told the waitress who then gave me major attitude and said “well maybe we changed rolls”, didn’t take the $3charge off my bill, nothing. I contacted the restaurant to find out they haven’t changed buns since they opened and indeed I was given a regular roll yet again. This time I got sick. Before I had even heard from the restaurant, my body told me I had taken a bite of a regular bun. Two days later I still am sick and this was completely avoidable had the restaurant not been careless. Yes, when you’re gluten free you do take a risk eating out. I get that. The disclaimer on the bottom of the restaurants menu does protect them from someone getting sick from CONTAMINATION. I know contamination is a risk. However, it doesn’t protect them from negligently giving the wrong bun/allergen someone ordered to avoid and unnecessarily making someone sick. Then lying about it. On top of it all, I have yet to receive an apology. All I received was attitude from the waitress when I questioned the bun I highly suspected was wrong but was assured it was right. This restaurant severely needs allergen education. If you have an allergen please please please be careful or do not eat here!

Went in not knowing what to expect. The restaurant is decorated with fairy lights and Edison bulbs and beside a bubbling brook, perfect atmosphere.The drinks were delicious and half the price of our tourist town , all of the food coming out looked delicious but I had to narrow it down to what we ordered. We were all so pleased, but I will go back because most everything can be made gluten free. Above all our young waitress was 100 percent appropriately on her A game and gave way better customer service than I’m used to. She split our bill up without acting like she had to detach her right arm to do it. We were not rushed out either . Cannot wait to go back !

We visited twice this weekend on a trip up and back from home, had excellent food both times! We really enjoyed the shrimp tacos and I loved the smokey peach drink! Was great to see many gluten free options as well!
