CUB PUB LOCATED BY THE TEAM STORE The buns for the hot dog were terrible! But the workers are sooo sweet! It was open on 9/16! The chicken tenders are also kinda bad but better than the hot dog bun!

The dedicated GF stand has been closed each game and couldn’t find any info on the website. Didn’t find any other GF options.

The Cub Pub at Principal Park is entirely gluten-free. I was able to safely eat cheese fries, which was a pleasant surprise! They offer a few meal options, as well as French fries, peanuts, and a gluten-free brownie. If you are looking for a traditional ballpark experience without any worries about food safety, I’d highly recommend the Cub Pub!

They have a dedicated GF food stand, I asked if they fried anything with gluten in the friers, they told me nothing with gluten goes in them. I got the bucket strip basket. They also had hot dogs and tenderloin sandwiches, gluten free brownies. There were more options but I forget. I asked if they knew what brand ketchup and mustard and they didn’t know, so I skipped it.

There is one designated gluten free food stand at Principal Park with several options. No worries on cross contamination since it’s the only food that they serve

Happy to have choices - fries were hot and good. Chicken strips were not awful but not like real chicken more like pressed chicken nuggets flattened out to be strips. It was a lot of food and they had bottled pop and canned gf beers too!

Really nice to have a gluten free stand at the ballpark. Several options. Tried the chicken strips and fries and hot dog, both great. This is an interesting stand and the way they do it is actually a really good idea from a space perspective. As of this review it's called Cub Pub. The front of the stand has a lot of different beer options, nearly all have gluten. There are some cider options as well. The kitchen in the back of the stand is gluten free. Someone is waiting for gluten free food orders and goes back and gets your food after you order it. Anyway, this allows them to get the most out of the space and still over a lot of truly gluten free options. Bravo Iowa Cubs!

Food was over cooked and the girl serving it was eating a pretzel and cheese which I don’t think was gluten free.

This is the ballpark where the AAA minor league baseball team Iowa Cubs play. There's a gluten free food stand here that sells burgers, hot dogs, chicken strips, and fries. The food was pretty good, albeit overpriced like all stadium food.
