My husband and I frequent Old Europe for their delicious cakes and coffee, so when it came time to pick a vendor for our wedding desserts, it was an easy choice! Abby helped us choose a variety of small cake flavors, and made sure each one was gluten free (I have celiac disease). She also walked us through customizing a larger cake for the two of us. Everything turned out beautiful, and our guests raved about how pretty and delicious our desserts were.
Also of note- our original wedding was the day after Hurricane Helene. Old Europe made it super easy to reschedule for our new date!

We had salads and pizzas delivered for our large group one night. They were fast and efficient. Salads were fresh and delicious (Greek salad). The pizzas satisfied our cravings and went perfectly with the wine we had at home. Solid crust and ingredients. We had a guest that was gluten free and she was able to pick her option and enjoy a great pizza alongside everybody.
Dedicated gluten-free menu and knowledgeable staff ensure a safe and delicious experience for those with gluten intolerance. Set in a historic downtown building with interesting decor and high ceilings, the tavern offers a bright yet cozy atmosphere that captures the local vibe. The gluten-free wild mushroom pizza stands out as a must-try, complemented by attentive service that personally addresses dietary needs, making it a definite must-try for gluten-free diners.

A great experience from start to finish. My cousin has a gluten allergy and our waitress Carly and the manager Ian personally made sure everything was safe for her to eat. We appreciated going above and beyond for that. Try the elote dip!

Great cocktails, great gluten free food for coeliacs (highly recommend the Buddha bowl), and so good for veggies and vegans too! Cool atmosphere would hands down recommend.

Just ok. Good beer selection. Gluten-free pizza crust was ok...I've had worse but I've had way better. Spices and flavors on the pizza were underwhelming. Not bad per say, just not great. The atmosphere was not quite what I was expecting either. Good service,

What a wonderful experience made possible by Michael and team. Reserved Table for a surprise engagement dinner and it far exceeded expectations. Michael worked ahead of time with me to pair down the menu to make things simpler for the kitchen staff. Pricing was a flat fee per person and we received that value if not more. Service was wonderful and we had the restaurant to ourselves by the end of the evening. The nut, dairy and gluten free member of our party was fully accommodated and even had altered appetizers brought out specifically for him. Can’t say enough about the food, still think about the hand made cavatelli and rabbit sugo. Michael even printed out a customized menu for us which we have since framed. Impeccable experience, wouldn’t have done it anywhere else. Cheers.
