Delicious burgers with gluten free buns. The flavor of the meat was really good. Chips and fries aren’t safe but server told us that before ordering them.

I had a great cheeseburger at this little downtown restaurant. They had gf buns available, but I prefer to skip the bread. The waiter knew what was safe and what was not. The pub chips were fried in a fryer with gluten, but they substituted a side salad. I have celiac and didn't have a problem here.

We stopped here on the way back to DC from Lake Hyco. I had the hipster burger with Swiss on a gf bun. Not sure what other gf options are besides the gf bun (such as apps or dessert) but all I wanted was an amazing burger and this did not disappoint. The rest of my fam enjoyed their western burger with gluten bun, and Justin wrap. Worth the wait as our burgers were very fresh and service was friendly. The window bar was nice for people watching.

Stopped here on the way up to Skyline Drive. As others have noted, gf buns available, fryer not safe, and they seemed to take seriously the precautions I requested. I tried the salmon burger and it was all right. That said, the up charge between gf bun and salad was $6– woof. Customer service was good.

Update. I work close to here and I ordered food and didn’t check it. I got a back and it was a gluten bun. This has never happened. I called and they were very apologetic and even volunteered to deliver my food. It’s not a far walk but the service is great! I 100 percent recommend this place whether gluten free or not

Never been sick here. I have eaten here several times. Gf Bun is good, I second guess the bun every time because it looks like a wheat bun! Sometimes I will swap the burger for grilled chicken. Grilled chicken sandwich is on point too! Only wish that they had a dedicated fryer! I like my fries with my burger! I get tired of Fritos!

Sat outside and enjoyed a hipster burger on a gf bun. Do not have a dedicated fryer, but you can swap out the chips for a house salad. No kids menu, but we were able to get a kids cheeseburger when we asked.

I have eaten here twice without getting sick. GF bun is really good and while the sides are limited to Fritos or salad because of a shared fryer, the burgers are amazing.

Delicious food, knowledgeable server who was sensitive to gluten issues and warmed me that their house chops are made in a shared fryer so I got a salad instead.

My husband has celiac and thought his burger with a GF bun was delicious. We were disappointed that there didn't seem to be much else on the menu that was GF aside from salads and burgers but we would return for the delicious burger. They use a shared fryer so you can't get fries either but was able to substitute with a side salad. They also had bold rock cider to drink. They did have vegetarian options as well, I had a beyond burger that was great!
