"There were three of us visiting for Sunday lunch. My wife and I live 100 miles out of Burton and wanted to take my Burton based Mum out for Sunday Lunch. The pub website specifically said ‘Gluten Free menu available’, and the ratings were good. When we arrived though the experience for my wife was very poor. There was no GF menu available and, eventually, the (helpful) server got a menu (partially) marked up by the chef. There were four starters available none of these were GF, and all included some bread, with no GF bread available either. Mother’s prawn cocktail was superb but our enjoyment was limited with Dani having to just watch. For main courses there were 2 roasts and eight other choices. Two of the non roasts were GF and the roast dinner options were advised as ‘GF available’ (which just meant taking off the Yorkshire pudding and stuffing of course). Dani went for Roast Turkey, and we had two Roast Beef dinners too these were all very good, with plenty of veg, but Dani’s enjoyment was again limited when she saw how good our (huge) Yorkshire pudding was. It was also surprising that extra gravy (which was GF) was charged for. Eight desserts and only two were GF, and one of these was ice cream. Overall the food was good and I would recommend provided you don’t have a coeliac (like Dani) or other GF in your party, as there’s very, very little GF awareness (although they did suggest they were going to ‘sort this out’ as we left)."
