Review of Bru Burger Bar

Bru Burger is by far my favorite restaurant in Lexington for GF options! I eat there at least once or twice a week, and no matter the waiter/waitress they always take my gluten allergy seriously and know what exactly is GF on the menu (or how to make something GF). It’s obvious they’ve been well trained on the GF options and measures to prevent contamination in their establishment. Most importantly, the food is delicious, and I’m not reduced to only a patty on lettuce.. I can get an actual burger with the bun and fries!

They offer UDI’s buns for all of their burgers, and the fries are fried in their own separate fryer so they are legitimately GF (yay!). You can’t go wrong with the “bru burger” burger option (bacon, taleggio cheese, tomato jam, and mayo).

The gorgonberry pecan salad is EXCELLENT and doesn’t have any gluten-containing ingredients that have to be modified, but I always tell them about my allergy anyway and they make a point of letting the kitchen know so it is handled separately of any croutons used in other salads.

I can’t say enough good things about Bru Burger as a GF option for Lexington folks!
