Great ice cream, super-cool atmosphere! They have so many flavors to choose from, even dairy and gluten-free options! A very inviting place, and the antique decor makes me feel like I'm in an old-school diner. The line moves super quick, and I had the best milkshake of my life! I will definitely be coming here again. They even have another location on the Luther College campus that is open to the public that offers coffee, sandwiches, and ice cream! A hidden gem, for sure.

I would like to send a thank you to Becky for being such a caring person. I recently found out that I have celiac disease and was unsure what I could order to eat. Becky gave me several options, and went out of her way to come find me in the restaurant, sit down, and share a pamphlet with me on gluten free options. Thank you, Becky, you are a wonderful person.

If you enjoy exploring interesting and regional ciders then this place is a ton of fun. Get a flight and check out the latest brews. Easy walking distance from downtown and outdoor seating if desired. The menu includes some gluten free options. The trout salad was excellent. After a long bike ride on nice spring day, this place hit the spot.

Amazingly good food in a friendly atmosphere. Clearly labeled gluten free options too. Lots of focus on using local growers and suppliers, in addition to beer and cider on tap. It's a good idea to call ahead though since it can be busy. Enjoy!

I expected better. The place and bathrooms were nice, but the food was mediocre. I was most disappointed that, despite me asking, they did not give me a break on the price of a menu item that had an option to leave out the meat. It was good they offered this option, but as you're getting less of the most expensive part of the dish, you should get a couple of dollars off. Most places do this. And it encourages vegetarianism or veganism which is better for our planet. What they did offer was no extra charge on the gluten-free version, but why was there an extra charge for gluten free at all? It usually isn't more expensive in a restaurant. For a restaurant with such a reputation and so expensive, this seemed mean. The chef's excuse for not giving me a break on the price for leaving out the meat was that this was not how the dish was meant to be prepared. That seemed feeble. Then don't offer that as an option and make another menu item that is vegan or vegetarian! Service wasn't great either, but it was the server's first day and she tried. She made a few mistakes and didn't know if the fish was sustainably caught either. I don't blame her as much as poor training or selection of employee. Do better. One of the friends I was dining with is a writer who has given good publicity for this restaurant and recommended it. Not sure she will continue to.
