Red Parka Steakhouse & Pub
Red Parka Steakhouse & Pub, located in Glen New Hampshire, is a pub style restaurant well known for their grill food and BBQ sauce. It's a favorite for locals and seasonal visitors. There have live entertainment on the weekends.
They are famous for the BBQ ribs. I remember getting some back in the late 1980s. They were really good and I look forward to trying them again.
On this particular trip I skipped the ribs as I didn't want to spend much money - we were on a low budget trip.
Gluten Free Options
They didn't have a Gluten free menu. Our server worked with us to create a dish that my six-year-old daughter could eat. They do have gluten free buns.
The server did tell us that they didn't have a dedicated fryer so we couldn't order french fries.
We ordered a cheeseburger with no bun and a side of string beans - fortunately, my daughter like string beans over french fries.
We went to the salad bar and got from fresh vegetables to start. My daughter was very tired from a fun day at Storyland. She just ate the salad and didn't touch much of her dinner.
Overall Feeling
The food was delicious and my daughter loved it. I think she was a bit skeptical about her food because they didn't have a Gluten free menu.
Can't really recommend this place because officially they didn't have any gluten-free options. However, if you're looking for good BBQ this is the place to try. The BBQ sauce was delicious and I would go back just to try the ribs again.
