All around perfect! The space was beautifully decorated for the holidays, and it wasn’t too crowded. When I inquired about gluten free items, our server, Sarah, was very knowledgeable and went over the entire menu with me! She listed safe items and many examples of substitutions that could be made for me to eat safely at Coal Town. I ordered the Artisan pizza on a gluten free crust and a side of duck fat fries. Everything was so delicious! Keep up the great work!

Best service and food in Brentwood and Cool Springs. We had salads and soups today and both the loaded potato and the She-crab soups were superb! Best Cobb Salad around and the Burrata Salad was excellent. We usually order their chicken entree with sundried tomatoes and it beats all other chicken dishes around...it's pricey but absolutely yummy.
