Per-allergen evidence
Hen House Eatery offers gluten-free preparation on most menu items for an extra charge, and all dressings are made with gluten-free ingredients. However, the kitchen has inconsistent cross-contact controls: some reviews report a dedicated grill and separate prep area, while others note the griddle no longer has a gluten-free section, and there is no dedicated fryer or waffle maker. Several diners with coeliac disease report getting sick here. Ask your server for the day's dedicated equipment status before ordering.
