Lunch at Tommy’s last week included a g-f veggie burger on a g-f bun, fries, and a cheddar grilled cheese and tomato sandwich. Tommy’s has been taking care of me and my family with all our gluten/vegan/dairy issues for years – graciously, intelligently and with great integrity. It is so exciting to see a dedicated gluten-free menu, lots of options, and especially great food! One reason they are always busy!
Thanks, Emily, for the following review:
I have been to Tommy’s in Coventry many times before. They have always been very accommodating regarding gluten free food, though there were still limitations to their menu, and only a few options. However, when I went to eat lunch there last week, I was plesantly surprised. When I asked my server for the gluten free menu, she informed me that they now have gluten free bread and a dedicated fryer. This means that a huge portion of the menu is now safe for gluten free customers! The falafel is gluten free, as are the french fries. Almost all of the sandwiches are now able to be ordered gluten free. My waitress at Tommy’s was extremely knowledgeable and seemed excited to share the gluten free options available to me. I ordered the Ceebee sandwich (falafel, veggies, homos, sunflower seeds, cheese and sesame sauce) and french fries. It was fantastic.When my meal arrived, my french fries had a toothpick in them to distinguish them from my friend’s fries that were likely fried in the normal fryer. The waitress also made a point to tell me that she checked to make sure, and the sesame dressing was gluten free (I hadn’t asked!). I also noticed while I was there that there was gluten free granola available, as well as some gluten free cookies.
I wish other restaurants would realize what Tommy’s has- with simple modification or two (in this case gluten free bread and a dedicated fryer), it can be very easy to accommodate gluten free customers.
