They have fried chicken made in a separate fried but unfortunately not much else. Their fries can’t be made separately and the only side option is coleslaw. Also be careful because some of the sauces contain gluten. Good cocktails though!

Was so excited to try this place when I learned they have GF fried chicken in a dedicated fryer & fries fried separately from their regular chicken. Sadly my Nima picked up gluten in both dishes. Wasn’t able to eat either :( don’t recommend for celiacs.

The wait for Gluten Free chicken is long. Overpriced. Not good. The gf coating was too thick. Won’t be back!

Great fried chicken! Ordered the poutine as well, but had to get the cheese on the side for my sister because it’s made from a traditional bechamel; fries are not made in a separate fryer.

Came highly recommended from a non GF friend saying that GF fried chicken was listed on the menu. Website states gf is prepared separately. Server confirmed this and was knowledgeable about available gf sauces. Also informed us that although fries do not contain any gluten ingredients, cross-contamination was a definite possibility. The only gf option on the menu is fried chicken. It is extraordinarily expensive for what is average fare. The gf chicken is coated in quinoa, chickpea, millet and potato flour and is edible, but not tasty.
