I ordered GF fried shrimp, GF hush puppies, broccoli salad and baked beans. My husband ordered chicken gumbo soup, nachos and honey bun cake. All items ordered were gluten free!! Most items are gluten free in the restaurant. They even had GF banana pudding and a variety of cakes.They had gluten free and regular breads and buns. The whole menu was gluten free except macaroni & cheese fried okra and footling hotdogs buns. They take things seriously as they have been dealing with needing gluten free for their family. I didn't get sick and I felt very safe and confident eating there. The food was delicious!

Lots of GF options including a dedicated fryer. I ordered the fried flounder plate with fries, GF hush puppies and baked beans. I had no reaction and the GF hush puppies were better than the regular.

GF and DF hush puppies! Amazing little place. Very aware of allergies and their dedicated fryers are GF, DF, and Soy free - you just have to tell them. They have a lot of gluten free desserts as well (not all are dairy free). Even banana pudding.

Every thing I have ever had here has been so amazing! Have not been sick once. Its great to have such a wonderfully dedicated gluten free establishment some what close by. Also, their deserts are to die for and remind me of deserts I could have before I had to go gluten free several years ago! Fantastic staff too!

I was visiting and found this restaurant on the app. I was so excited after reading all the great reviews, I informed them that I have Celiac,ordered the shrimp with fries, coleslaw and hush puppies. Everything tasted great. I hadn’t even finished and my symptoms started, I heard her tell the kitchen to prepare GF I don’t know what happened but I got terribly sick

“Visiting my in-laws this weekend and they live close to Hickory, so it was a must that we try Charlie Graingers for lunch. Sorry we started eating before I thought to take pics. Everything in the pics are GF, but it is not a dedicated GF restaurant. I believe the owner has a family with Celiac and they take it seriously --- changing gloves, dedicated prep area and 2 dedicated fryers. Everything was amazing. Everyone in my group can have gluten except my 6 yr old but we all ate GF”

Lots of fun choices, very knowledgeable and kind service. Dedicated fryer! I have a hard time giving any establishment that isn’t dedicated GF a 5 heart safety rating, but this is as safe as it gets in a facility that has gluten as well.

Amazing experience! Owner’s daughters have celiac disease or gluten intolerance which is why she provides many safe options. I had fried shrimp, fries, and hush puppies! Everything was amazing and took me back to my childhood at the coast. Definitely a must try. My husband (not celiac) enjoyed the regular hot dogs as well.
