Review of Hat Creek Burger Co.

I have a couple kids with celiac disease. We just moved to town. They are super happy that we found a fast food restaurant where they can eat safely and feel like all the other kids who get to go to McDonald's and Chick-fil-A and play on the playground. We have gone there multiple times since moving here and neither of them have ever gotten sick. One of them loves the chicken nuggets and fries. I tried the gluten-free cheeseburger with the sweet potato fries and it was really good. I would liken the taste of the burger to In-N-Out. Obviously, it's not exactly the same but you can see it from there.

Everything that goes into their fryers is gluten-free and they know how to do allergy protocol. They change their gloves and make the food in a separate area. They use the same grill for their burgers and buns. However, they put down parchment paper or foil onto the grill first, which is exactly what we do for our kids when we grill at our relatives' houses and they never get sick. All in all, we are very happy with this restaurant!
