Boulder Dam Brewing Co.

The second star is only because the server kept checking with the kitchen when I asked a question. Otherwise it would be 1 star, because the food was so disappointing. I was aware when I went in that there wasn’t a gluten-free menu, though it did say they had gluten-free beer. The beer was Omission which they don’t even make anymore so I wasn’t surprised they didn’t have any. Basically, the only gluten-free options were salads without croutons and sandwiches without rolls. I opted for a salad with chicken, apples, and glazed walnuts. They make the glazed walnuts in the house, but basically the nuts were so heavily coated, they were actually soft. There were four or five slices of chicken at room temperature that were definitely not fresh. It was so dry I couldn’t even chew it and it didn’t taste much like chicken. I was told the fries and chicken wings were gluten-free but they don’t have a separate fire so that was not true. I left hungry and I wouldn’t recommend it.

The gluten reduced beers are omission cans, nothing on tap. They do have a couple sangrias which might be safe, didn’t ask. Also have canned ciders and seltzers. Nothing too exciting. Not many food options

I wouldn’t recommend it. No GF menu. Minimal GF options. I ordered the pub salad with grilled chicken thinking I would be safe. But the chicken is clearly rotisserie and there is no way of knowing if it has gluten. Candied walnuts are super iffy also. Mostly fried foods. Beer cheese queso. I should have known not to come here, but tried for my family. I ended up not eating. Server wasn’t knowledgeable and looked at me like I was an alien when I told her I had celiacs and explained what that meant. A few ciders and gluten reduced beers is all they have going for them.
