This is a bit of a hidden gem inside the Gladstone Hotel. It was a quiet night. We had a great bartender/server on Friday night. The burger and fries and wings were really good as was my margarita. And the prices were super reasonable- how refreshing! Good place to hang out and talk.

I had a lovely lunch at the Gladstone with a friend. The atmosphere was perfect, food was delicious, and the staff were so kind (and the music wasn't loud!)

When we arrived, the Gladstone Cafe was closed. Instead, they took us to a dark and dingy room to serve us dinner. It had red carpet and painted plywood walls. They handed us the menu for the Gladstone Cafe but we could not eat there so we left.
