Although it does not have a dedicated gluten-free menu, they do serve gluten-free burger buns. I called ahead and they assured me that the buns are not cut in-house and therefore there is no fear of cross contamination of cutting boards or knives. Plenty of gluten free toppings for your burgers. Although could be a bit pricey, the burgers are really really good.

BEST FRIES IN NEWMARKET. They have a great lunch deal, $15 for a burger, side and pop. The burger was 4oz I believe, but it was the right size for a filling lunch. Their fries are bottomless, and I could not get enough of them. Crispy and salty, but still very potatoey. Our waitress let us know they’re fried in a dedicated fryer, and are cut in house. Their gluten free bun wasn’t my favourite, and fell apart a little, but $1.50 up charge wasn’t the best. They serve the pop in measuring cups, which was neat, and very fizzy. I highly recommend stopping by. The onion rings are very crispy, an extra $4 and not gluten free, but you can hear a very audible crunch.
