Have always had a great experience here. We order it to go or for delivery. They take extra precautions for gluten free including putting the pizza on foil to prevent cross contamination.

Last time I went here the waiters seemed knowledgeable of allergies. Everything looked great and my pizza even came out in a tinfoil lined dish. Unfortunately I got extremely sick almost immediately. My stomach was an absolute wreck which is a shame because it tasted great!

Pizza tastes great and made in its own pan and is not cut to avoid cross contamination

The gf crust isnt the BEST, but I’ve never had a reaction here and have always felt safe here. Definitely worth a try. Tip: make sure they cook your pizza on tinfoil, and ask them to make it extra crispy.

Really delicious pizza to satisfy a craving! The GF crust wasn’t what I was expecting (it was very thin, but not a crispy puck like you sometimes get).

Most pizza places just offer GF, with no effort to avoid cross-contamination. They were very knowledgeable and explained their processes.

The crust tastes like true pizza crust. Loved that it was thicker than most.

Great service

Just had a great pizza! I asked all the right questions about Gluten Free handling and felt very safe. That being said, I’m not as sensitive as soon people with celiac. We also had a hot fudge Sunday for dessert. They use sanders hot fudge topping & Hudsonville Ice Cream which are both Gluten Free. They made ours with a clean scoop from fresh ice cream stock. We will be back!

They might have a GF crust, but this is not a gluten-friendly environment. Had an awful reaction here. Wouldn’t recommend this if you’re incredibly sensitive.

I give them an A for effort. The pizza is pretty tasty, but the gluten free crust is much too bready. It doesn’t really strike me as a pizza crust. I liked the original Buddy’s crust back when I could eat it. I’d come back, but I can’t rave about it.

My absolute favorite gluten free Detroit pizza! It’s baked in tinfoil to prevent cross contamination and I have never felt sick after multiple visits. Servers are very kind as well!

AMAZING! This place was so good, knowledgeable and very aware of celiac and precautions. I will 100% visit this place again, and again, and again. It’s not thin crust pizza either, it is Detroit style gluten free. And the pizza is the only gluten free option on the menu.

Buddy’s was awesome! Staff were friendly & totally understood my needs. I was able to get the original Detroiter gluten free & had no issues. I feel so grateful that I could actually participate in a classic tradition despite having Celiac. Absolutely delicious & worth the trip!

The hostess and waiter were not knowledgeable about gluten free precautions but they gladly checked with the kitchen staff. Ordered a gluten free pizza and it came out on tinfoil with its own pizza cutter to limit cross contamination. Very reactive celiac and did not react at all. Pizza was good too. Would return.
