We stopped at the Troy location while on a roadtrip! I am vegan with severe celiac disease, so I had a plain baked potato with ketchup and some fries. I haven’t gotten sick! The fries could’ve used some sauce, but forgot to ask!My husband doesn’t have celiac disease and got the roast beef (he said it was good just dry, so we second the sauce comment) we thought the food was pretty decent (we showed up a half hour before close, so it was understandable that it wasn’t the greatest). The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about any concerns I had! Would go back again!

I go to the location in Troy, Mo. I ask for the manager to take my order. I have never had an issue. They seem to be educated on Celiac Disease. They are also very friendly

They had really good fries and a roast beef sandwich (with gluten free bun packaged separately). We thought a little bit of sauce would go a long way so get some BBQ sauce when you order :)

This Lion's Choice has an employee who is gluten-free so they are very cautious when it comes to making sure nothing is cross-contaminated when serving. Very friendly staff and helpful too, I ordered the roast beef with no bun and cheddar, and the fries and felt fine after eating their delicious food!

I enjoy the chicken strips. The GF bun is sealed in its own wrapper so no one cross contaminates it. All the sauces are GF

Quickly one of our gluten free favorite places to eat! Our celiac daughter loves the chicken tenders, veggies and vanilla shake! Always friendly, knowledgeable service and rarely ever busy. Don’t skip this fast food gluten free gem!

Wonderful stop on our way through town. Quick and I felt safe. Got the chicken tender sandwich and fries, all separate and gluten free! I will definitely go by again when in the area.

No GF menu. When asked for choices she said chicken strips and French fries. So that’s what I ordered. It was meal priced at $9.09 med drink, 2 small chicken strips and a small fry. It was surprisingly good.

The gluten free chicken fingers are a favorite for my daughter, and I appreciate the gluten-free fries. This has become our go to fast food. The staff are well educated on cross contamination and allergen protocol across locations, which is a relief!
