Cold Beers & Cheeseburgers

This is a great location. The GF menu is full of options. They DO HAVE separate fryer for the chips, fries, and tots. The buns are fair but the burgers are so good, you forget the bun is falling apart while you are eating! Pretty safe for us…never had an issue there. Not sure about the previous reviewer’s comment about pre-frying everything. I spoke to the manager and he had never heard of that practice. My fries were definitely fresh at dinner time.

The burgers are okay. The buns are sometimes good but often stale. In recent months they have changed to frying the gf chips/fries in the am and just bagging them up to serve later in the day and use the fryer for gluten items the rest of the day. We aren’t likely to go back with this new change.

Cold Beers and Cheeseburgers restaurant checked all my boxes off today!

✅ Dedicated fryer at Higley/Queen Creek location ✅ Clean pan ✅ Clean utensils ✅ Server knew what Celiac Disease was and went back to the chef to let them know ✅ Marked Gluten Allergy on receipt 🧾

Now, what did I get? 😋 All American 🇺🇸 Burger 🍔 protein style (they do have GF buns) with a side salad 🥗. I didn’t want to ask about the dressings (I also don’t do dairy or soy so I asked for olive oil and lemon slices to make my own dressing!)

Overall, I’m impressed with the safety and would definitely go again.😁

Gluten free buns. I order the PB & Jelly burger without the chipotle sauce or cheese. It comes with bacon. I think it’s the PERFECT combination and is actually my favorite burger in the valley.

They have a gluten free bun and fryer but you have to ask them for it. The bun is a bit dry but it’s better than lettuce! Love the garlic fries and have never been sick

The food tasted good and the staff said the fryer was dedicated gluten free. However, I got glutened.

The gluten free buns are not the best. After one bite my burger fell apart in a crumbled soggy mess. Either they didn’t toast it or the bread was dried out. (Gf bread sometimes needs to be toasted to make it good) If you are a restaurant with a gluten free menu get the bread right. It’s everything. Service was good though.

Their GF menu is posted online but call before you go! Apparently during their busy season, they stop offering most of the GF options. We waited a long time to get a table only to find out that they may not have anything for us. They did end up having GF buns and GF tots and it was good.

Tested with Nima and fries are NOT gluten free. They offer a gluten free menu and we called in advance to inquire about dedicated fryer etc. They claimed all GF options were prepared in a dedicated fryer. I ordered a burger and fries. First tested burger, gf bun, and fries and got a contains gluten. Then tested burger and bun and got a safe indication. Tested just the fries and got a contains gluten indicator. Staff was apologetic and nice.

Celiac friendly?

No

Extremely GF friendly. Lots of beer options

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gluten free menu and sooooooo yummy!

Had the truffle fries, they were delicious. I would highly recommend this place if you want to come for beer and cheeseburgers.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The GF menu is actually “gluten friendly” They claim they have dedicated fryers in the back, which they might but I get sick every time I go here. The first time I had tater tots and a burger in a lettuce wrap and the second time I got wings they also put that in the fryers so beware of the fried food here I’m not sure if their fryer is actually dedicated or if it’s near where they mix flour batter or what but I got sick.

When I eat here I always make my own burger. There is a piece of paper that you can select options on. There is an option for GF bun. Use your common sense for toppings. Obviously avoid the onion ring. Fries are fried in a dedicated frier. Feel pretty safe here and not a bad burger for a restaurant. Taste 8/10. Value 6/10.

There are gluten free fryers! They have amazing fries and a wide selection of gluten free options. They have a menu that is considered gluten sensitive but provides the least amount of cross-contamination. Enjoy your food cause it is delicious!

They no longer have a dedicated fryer. GF buns. Not really sure if this place is safe. Also, it’s a sports bar so there are a million TVs in your face.
