Bavarian Bistro & Bar

Gluten free buns and a dedicated fryer plus some yummy ciders made a great GF dinner. Not a ton of brat choices but 1 was GF and my hubby made a brat burger with it and a Gf bun and thought it was yummy.

I came here after a long hike and ordered a gluten free burger and my friend ordered a veggie burger, they gave both of us veggie burgers and regular buns and I found that out when they gave me my receipt.

Wasn’t provided.

The staff is very knowledgeable and willing to work with the customer to make sure they have a pleasant and "safe" dining experience. We, an entire family of celiacs, have eaten here 3 times now and every time they have worked with us on not only gluten but other food allergies as well. Their sweet potato fries are cooked in a dedicated fryer and they have assured us of precautions taken for the gluten free burgers etc. It isn't a completely gluten free establishment (meaning: there is always going to be a chance for contamination of some sort in any place that deals in gluten, too) but we have been glad to have at least somewhere we could go where they seem to understand and are willing to work with our issues. I marked that I am very confident about their precautions against cross contamination- It seems a bit leap from "somewhat" to "very". If I could choose something in between that would be most accurate. We didn't tour the kitchen ourselves but felt, from talking to the staff, that they understood the dangers to our family and would work to take every precaution.

Btw, the menu is somewhat limited for the GF (I marked there were "several" GF options because there are many different kinds of burgers and salads to choose from)- it's mainly burgers, salads, and sweet potato fries and maybe a few side dishes- but it has suited our needs and we as left happy customers.

It was lovely to be able to eat out somewhere and feel like they cared and took efforts to make it safe for our family. It's very hard, generally, to eat out and feel any level of confidence. And the food was good quality as well as delicious. We have been happy with our experiences here.

If you want salad it is GF. Pretty disappointed with the lack of choices. You can't even have fries.

No dedicated fryer, but staff knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Sandwiches and burgers served on gf bun. Had gf split pea soup instead of fries.

THEY ARE NOT CELIAC FRIENDLY. They cannot guarantee no cross contamination. That being said, our waitress was very nice about it and very knowledgeable. She suggested we go to a different restaurant in town and we were very happy.

Celiac friendly?

No

They have GF buns and were able to make all the burgers gluten free. I was disappointed that the sweet potato fries were labeled gluten free, but were fried in a frier with potato fries "lightly coated" in bread crumbs.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Quinoa salad was very fresh and healthy. The fryer is not dedicated and fries have batter though.

They have several gluten free options, mainly burgers. $2 more for a gluten free bun which was deliecious with the Granada (Garden burger) made with black beans and corn. I had a side salad instead of fries as there is no dedicated fryer. Waitress was very knowledgeable and was happy to help. She said there is more gluten free items than indicated on the menu but hasn't been updated.
