Boston Ale House

They have a lot of gf options here, and the food was good. I don’t know how celiac safe it really is, but I didn’t get sick. Our waitress wasn’t the best, but it was pretty busy so it was understandable. I got the nachos which were delicious, and we also got the Brussels sprouts which I didn’t try but looked good and everyone else enjoyed. Id definitely go back!

The bartenders are knowledgeable about GF. Every time I’ve sat at a table it’s been questionable. Ordered a veggie burger and got a regular bun. Thank goodness I noticed before I ate it. They offered me a free dessert- but there weren’t any GF desserts on the menu. Womp Womp

My girlfriend and I did not like our food at all. I got the gluten free Mac n cheese and the cheese sauce was flavorless and a weird orange color. My girlfriend got the jalapeño burger and it was also the most flavorless burger she ever had. Neither of us finished the food it was honestly gross. When the waitress came over and asked how the food was we were honest and the manager came over and apologized. Don’t go overpriced and gross

Edit: recently tested with some gluten in my system, and given that they didn’t know what they were doing with the ice cream, I’m willing to call my visit inconclusive.

Dedicated fryer!! Lots of options. Haven’t gotten sick here, and a good bun that didn’t fall apart. The French fries are awesome. The biggest issue is that the ice cream is marked gluten free but it isn’t celiac safe. A quick Google of Gifford’s Ice Cream shows they have a facility that processes wheat and other allergens, which is the company most of the flavors come from. When I asked the waiter was really responsive but not great that the didn’t really investigate the ice cream before marking it GF on the menu. I forgot the brand for vanilla so I didn’t look that up so not sure if that flavor is GF.

Had a great takeout meal. The staff was so kind while ordering via phone and even called us back to clarify GF components of our order.

The food was delicious. It was amazing to have a burger, fries, and Buffalo chicken dip! The burger bun was a good size bun too and not tiny!

lots of options! I had a great veggie burger and fries, as well as the Brussel sprout sides. It was all delicious and came out marked with allergy toothpicks. great to have a place in west rox to get GF pub food!

My burger had crispy onions and I was nervous that they would contain gluten. Our server went and double checked with the kitchen and was very contentious about my allergy/celiac.

Very GF neighborhood pub/sports bar. GF items clearly marked and server very knowledgeable “we take allergies very serious”. Has a separate friolator. Had delicious potato skins and salad with steak tips. Food quality def step up from typical bar food. Seems to be angling for more of a gastropub lane. Highly recommend and will def be back
