ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT
Effective Date: March 2026 · Last Updated: March 2026
Our Commitment
The Original Firehouse Tavern is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We believe that every visitor deserves a full and equal experience on our website, and we are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our digital content.
What We Are Doing
We are working to make this website conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities, including those with visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities.
Our ongoing accessibility efforts include:
- •Using clear, descriptive headings and page structure to aid navigation
- •Providing alternative text for images throughout the site
- •Ensuring sufficient color contrast between text and backgrounds
- •Making sure all functionality is accessible via keyboard navigation
- •Keeping language clear and readable
- •Ensuring embedded third-party tools (including our chatbot and review widgets) are sourced from providers who maintain their own accessibility standards
Third-Party Content
Some content and features on our website are provided by third-party services including Anthropic Claude AI (Sparky chatbot), Elfsight (Google reviews), and online ordering platforms (Cake and DoorDash). While we select providers who take accessibility seriously, we do not have full control over third-party content. We encourage these providers to maintain accessible experiences and will continue to evaluate our third-party integrations with accessibility in mind.
