Backwoods Burger Bar

I can’t say enough about this place. Absolutely incredible, and SO knowledgeable! My mom and I split burgers but she’s not Celiac, and everyone noticed and commented when she got onion rings because they’re not gluten free, despite getting a gluten free bun. They genuinely care and I would recommend anyone in the area stop by. We live four hours away and we plan to come back!

They have gluten free buns and a dedicated fryer for fries and chips. The food was delicious. They came to our table to explain safe handling procedures (glove changes etc) and did everything to make sure we had a great experience. The food was great, my kid with celiac was happy and most importantly he didn’t get sick. We will be back.

Amazing! I was in Kingsport for 3 days and I ate here twice. Definitely celiac safe.

They have a dedicated fryer for chips and fries and gluten free buns. Server walked through everything on the menu that was not gluten free and was very protective about no cross contamination. I had the Deep South burger (without the fried green tomato) and fries. No reaction! Delicious pimento cheese and super delicious bun that held together really well.

I love it when restaurants have a dedicated fryer. My daughter and I each ordered different things and they were both delicious. I have severe reactions and there was no issues with cross contamination. My son loved his massive kids meal! Very reasonably priced. We will absolutely be back!

So good. Only one other table occupied when I went in. Server washes his hands before he made my drink (water). Heard him tell kitchen to make sure no Cross Contamination. I got a basic burger with cheese lettuce and bacon and it was a super good burger. Bun stayed together up until last two bites but with how much liquid there was on plate feom fries I think Any bun would have broken. The burger wassss amazing. Another patron said he thought it’s best burger in town. The string fries were good but honestly not amazing. If yiu like seasoning they were more on fresh and basic side. Clearly hand cut. Great experience.

The burger was delicious. It had a nice crust and the bun was fabulous. It held together like most gf buns it never do. The fries were skinny and fried in their own fryer; so def gf. So, there weren’t any cross-contamination issues. Definitely a must stop. They could modify almost anything on the menu when it came to burger choices.
