Slow service but friendly waitstaff once they get to you. I’ve been here a couple times. The gluten free bun is excellent when fresh but one of the times I ordered it the bun was hard and dried out. Amazing adult milkshakes though they are made differently by some staff members (some do them all up with fun sauces and sprinkles on the glass and some don’t). My sister and I appreciate the hockey, both times we’ve stopped in they were playing international hockey.

NOT celiac safe. 4/5 of us are GF (not celiac). 2 of us ordered burgers and 2 of us ordered grilled cheese. All came on “GF” bread because they were out of GF buns, but the bread on the grilled cheese did not look like GF bread and looked very different than the GF bread used on the burgers. We asked our server about it twice, convinced the grilled cheese bread wasn’t GF. She checked with the kitchen twice, the second time taking the sandwich back to show them. They insisted it was GF. We finally called the manager over and she was livid and immediately agreed that the grilled cheese was indeed on non-GF bread. Thankfully she was incredibly apologetic and said it was totally unacceptable. But I would not trust the kitchen here if you have celiacs. (Personally I’d say you’re not missing out on anything anyhow-none of us liked it)

I have been here twice. The first time was great and they got all my modifications for my burger correct. The second time they gave me a normal bun instead of a GF one. I noticed after I took one bite and the waitress was quick to correct the issue. The food is good, but double check they gave you the right Bun before eating!

The restaurant confirmed a dedicated fryer for the French fries and tater tots. They also have gluten free buns available. I have EOE and did not have a reaction; so excited to have fries!!

This place is a great vibe and they have lots of gluten free options. They have a gluten free bun for their burgers or chicken and their fries and tots are fried in dedicated fryer. I felt great after too!
