GF Dedicated Fryer. Most items in the menu are gluten free. Just ask if something can be made GF. Also have GF buns for the burgers.

Old firehouse made into a restaurant. Cute atmosphere. Prices slightly higher higher than expected. The app should have $$ not $ on their description.

UPDATE: 10/23/23 — they have a new menu BUT they went back to making their fryer safe and there are still GF options. —— Excellent food where you can eat the fries (dedicated and only fryer where everything that goes in is safe). GF Potato starch coated fried chicken sandwich is NO LONGER available since the menu updates Udi’s bun instead of brioche bun (it’s toasted) is made really well for things like burgers or falafel sandwich (which are both safe and GF in GF fryer).

Burger and fries were great. Salads present beautiful and look so fresh and green. Breakfast food looks amazing. Much can be made GF. We had lunch (pictured below with menu and the food we had).

We were told by our knowledgeable server that the Dinner menu can be adapted for many GF items. Nothing is market on the menu as GF but it felt very safe.

Cute atmosphere of an old fire house with outdoor seating on a quiet residential street.

Food was good but there is NO dedicated fryer anymore. They are looking to remove the item causing the issue but it is not dedicated now. It was also crazy hot inside. No AC or fans. Our group was looking for more air movement.

Update! I was at this restaurant tonight, August 2, and they have gone back to having a GF fryer! The wait person said that the brussel sprouts went back to being panned fried as people were unhappy about the fryer not being gf. I had a cheeseburger and frys with no issue.

This place got such good reviews so I was excited to try this place but was definitely a little disappointed by my experience and definitely got glutened. I went for brunch and when I asked about a gluten free menu the server was rude and said “ no, I don’t know any restaurants that have gluten free menus anymore”. They had options and she seemed somewhat knowledgeable but I just had a bad feeling. I got the breakfast sandwich and although it was very good I don’t feel great today! Glad other people had such a great experience, maybe the dinner service is better.

They do not have a GF menu nor are GF items marked. However, the staff was knowledgeable and checked with the kitchen on items they were unsure of. The coq au vin was delicious and completely gf!

Delicious food, great staff. I got the fried chicken sandwich on a gluten free bun which I haven’t had something like that in SO long and it was just as good as you can imagine. I also got fries since they have a dedicated fryer. They were so crispy. I got the house sauce and special sauce I think they were called. Both so good! No gluten free menu but they can adjust almost everything.

They're so knowledgeable. I've eaten here a dozen times and I always feel safe. Almost everything is already GF or can be easily modified without compromising the flavor. Dedicated GF frier. Excellent bartender. DELICIOUS food.

We were so excited to try this place based off of the reviews, but sadly their chicken sandwich is a “seasonal” option. Their website did not reflect this. If you want the chicken sandwich make sure you call first to see if it’s in “season”. We still ate and I was not impressed. We are from out of town and I don’t think we’ll make it a point to go back.

Food & drinks were great all around! My wife (who has celiac disease) ordered the fried chicken sandwich (I of course stole a bite) - top notch! Staff was kind and understood celiac risk and how to prepare GF menu items safely for those with celiac or severe gluten intolerance. While the in-house beers are not gluten free they did have a full bar and good local options from Burning Bros and Bauhaus (seltzer). Looking forward to next trip to A-Side!

Ordered the gluten free fried chicken sandwich. They use potato flour for the breading and a dedicated fryer mean the wonderful fresh fries were available as a side. Also ordered a side of bernaise sauce to dip the fries. Wonderful food and knowledgeable staff to ensure a safe dinner for 2 celiacs. No reactions later in the evening of any cross contamination. Highly recommend.

The waitstaff were great about working with celiac. They can make anything on the menu gluten-free and have GF buns for the burgers and sandwiches. They are also a brewery but they have a full cocktail menu, wine, and cider as well. I have eaten there lots of times and never had a reaction.
