    Almost everything on the menu can be made gluten free including pasta, pizza, sandwiches, paninis and appetizers!! They have New Grist and Fox Barrel, and there are gluten free specials on Tuesdays!!

    Make sure to wash down your meal here with a Peroni. Delicious, and goes with most of the dishes well.

    As expected from the Transfer Pizza folks, they have great pizza. But, break out & try some other stuff: excellent grilled (NOT fried) calamari app & nice twist on traditional Cubano sandwich.

    If you want something like a Guinness, without the stout taste, try a Baltika. Not only is it a delightful in taste but it comes in a big bottle that gives you a beer and a half!

    Need an appetizer suggestion; go with the Bruschetta Salami. Totally killer. Shaved asiago is a nice touch.
