Server seemed confused when I mentioned Celiac - I'm on a road trip and staying nearby and desperate to eat so I decided to go ahead.

I ordered the bone in wings with garlic parmesan and parmesan pepper with a side of fries and lemonade. These were marked with a small g on the menu to denote item is naturally free of gluten but it is not a gluten free facility.

I'm about an hour and a half post meal and my body has not retaliated which is more than I can say for a lot of places.

I wouldn't expect the same experience time after time here though.

I ate here a while back and their "gluten free" menu is a joke. It's really just a list of sauces and sides that don't contain gluten and you have to hunt through the regular menu comparing the two to find anything. The staff is not extremely knowledgeable about the contents of their menu items. However I did not have a reaction so I will give them that much. Celiac safe, but it's practically like pulling teeth to find something to order.

They have a separate dedicated fryer for gf wings! The server will go over which sauces to avoid (mainly ones with soy sauce). They can also do gf fries in that fryer.

We stopped on a whim while traveling, after reading reviews here. I had a grilled chicken sandwich on a gf roll and gf french fries. It was very good. The bun did not fall apart like most gf buns! I have Celiac and was fine afterward. Service was excellent! The decor is interesting! A fun stop for sure.

I called, and they weren't sure about the gluten free quality of the food. My partner ordered the Jumbo Wings, which should be gluten free according to their website, and got a bad reaction.

Separate gf fryer. For wings or fries.
