Nine Pin Cider Works is a rare gem for celiacs—this is a dedicated gluten-free facility where every cider and food item is truly safe for those of us who need to be extra vigilant. The kitchen uses separate equipment, and their partnerships with trusted local gluten-free bakeries like Birch Baked and O'Malley's Oven bring comforting options like fluffy pizza crusts, hand pies, and even pretzels. Staff here don't just know the menu—they understand celiac needs, so you can finally let your guard down and just enjoy the moment. Honestly, it's the kind of place where you can breathe easy, share a flight with friends, and remember what dining out is supposed to feel like.
