claddagh irish pub

this place is not safe for anyone with celiac disease...waiters also stick their hand in your plate!. i visited this restaurant on sunday may 18th. i have celiac disease which is an auto-immune disease in which my body destroys the tissue in my small intestine when i ingest gluten. i read that there were many items on their menu that can be made gluten free. i thought it would be a lovely place to have lunch with a few friends; i asked for a glutenfreemenu and was told that it was marked on the regular menu. i explained to my waiter that i had celiac disease and asked if the kitchen prepares glutenfreeitems separately and he said they did. i ordered the glutenfreeirish beef stew and again i specified gluten free. when i received my meal it was accompanied by two small pieces of bread! i asked can i have this? is this glutenfreebread? he said he was sorry and removed it from my plate with his bare hands. i have only been diagnosed for a few months so i am kind of new to this, it was awkward so i went ahead and ate my stew. i realize now that either my meal
was not rang up glutenfreewhich means that the stew most likely had flour in it or the bread cross contaminated my food. i had horrible stomach, joint, and head pain for a week. this is a typical response in a a person with celiac disease that has been contaminated by gluten. i wrote them an email a few days later and received no response.all i asked is they please explain the difference in a celiac and a person on a glutenfreediet to their staff. i do not eat glutenfreebecause i enjoy it (who doesn't love bread??)i eat that way so that i don't get sick or develop life threatening complications. if you cannot accommodate people with celiac disease please remove these options from your menu or specify that you cannot guarantee a true glutenfreeexperience! they also need to let their staff know that it is never appropriate to put your hands in someone's plate....that is just gross!

amazing. not sure what the prior reviewer had that was so small with the fish, i went on bogofreenight, it was huge! it was one huge piece of fish that hung over the ends of my plate. crispy, golden brown, delicious. excellent caesar salad - so perfect! i go with a friend every monday i can!

we had some girl server that was absolutely terrible - i didn't want to even tip her. we got a salad and she didn't even bring it, then blamed the kitchen. we had a young shaved head guy that was awesome, and another young girl that was excellent service! good time was had 90% of my visits.
