Peddlers Bar and Bistro

A large party of us came for a big family dinner because Peddlers is a trusted restaurant for those of us with celiac. We were seated at a table in the bar area not large enough to accommodate us. I asked if we could spread out to the empty table next to us and no one came back to us to confirm. Some had to hold their plate vs. use the table. The food was overpriced. The mandarin salad was topped with mandarins that had passed. But the real kicker was that one of us with celiac was served regular chicken tenders on a salad marked and served as gluten free. The poor waitress said “I don’t know why they did that” and comped the salad on the bill, but still added the automatic 20% gratuity to the bill. No apology from the cook or manager although that one family member had to leave immediately to deal with the almost immediate allergic reaction. Unreal. Would not return, and would not trust if you have a gluten allergy.

Food was decent with plenty of gluten-free choices. Our server was super weeded and it showed. Orders were inputted incorrectly and drinks were very slow. Seemed like a popular place but maybe caught an off night.
