Eastside Big Tom

Came to this location this weekend. Though they offer gluten free buns and fries, they are cooked, prepped and fried in the same location as non gluten free items.

My son with Celiac's loves this place. I was so glad they had a gluten free bun because eating with dinosaurs is awesome with kids.

Meh. Massively overpriced. For what is essentially an In & Out burger, you pay twice as much and you don’t even get fries. I’ve eaten here four times and gotten sick once or twice, not worth it all around.

I was not able to order a burger because they make all the burgers on the same grill where they grill the gluten buns. Gluten free soft serve ice cream and dairy free available. Ice cream was good. I ordered a shake not blended and used my spoon to mix it up. Their immersion blender seemed too risky for cross contamination although they did offer to wash it for me. My gluten eating family loved the burgers.

Delicious gluten-free buns! Also you can get a Boca patty sub for any meat! Friendly staff! Great food!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Absolutely delicious burgers. They don't freeze their patties. Also delicious fries and shakes. Their goop does have trace wheat in the relish. They are knowledgeable and honest. I was not affected by the fries or goop or shake but I am intolerant and not full blown celiac.

I didn't eat here. I was told they have cross contamination if you are very sensitive or celiac they do not recommend.

Celiac friendly?

No

*Update: they now take credit cards!!* Knowledgable staff. The Goop is NOT gluten free. Burgers are delicious. I've been there several times and haven't gotten sick. I love the drive in vibe and it's always decorated with the most incredible cut-outs.

Oh my goodness how I love Big Tom's gluten free hamburgers and not just on Tuesday's either! The buns are super yummy and hold up well when I get one to go.

I've eaten at Big Tom's many, many, many times and have had symptoms only once. Ask them to change gloves when handling your food to be extra safe.

Burger good. Staff knowledgable. Fries not gluten free due to not having a dedicated fryer. And due to their new milkshake setup, they are also not gluten free.

What an amazing place! I don't think I've ever gobbled down a burger faster than I did here. It was cooked perfectly, the gluten free bun was the best I've ever had, and the staff was so friendly.

Had there GF burger tonight. Yum. Bun was a little chewy but all over pretty good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Yuuuuum. Love the fry sauce! Well everything. Best of all my autistic daughter with 3 food allergies finally has a burger she likes. Devoured it! Daily difficult chore getting her to eat. My only complaint is that I wish there was one in Yelm.

Seriously the best gf burger I have had. The beef, lettuce, and tomato tastes fresh. The gf bun is a great texture and doesn't fall apart ! I will definitely go back to Big Tom's in the future.

If you're craving a gf burger, you gotta try Big Toms! Best burgers ever! The gf bun was soft and tasty.

Amazing gluten free burgers!! It had been quite some time since I could have a burger with a bun and Big Tom burgers hit the spot. Their fries are delicious and their shakes are rich and creamy. Definitely will be going back!

so good!

They offer a gluten free bun for burgers on request. They have great fries and shakes.
