Babes is not safe for celiac and cross contaminates all cooked food.
Smoked chicken, salad, and green beans are gluten free. Not a lot of options but you will at least be safe here. I wouldn’t choose to go here just given the limited options but good place if you have friends or family going
They brought me an allergen menu. You can eat the smoked chicken and the fried catfish. And a few of the sides. I was super excited to be able to eat catfish again!

Everything was so good. I had plenty of safe options and did not get sick! I am a sensitive Celiac. I loved the hickory smoked chicken…I think that was the name…the seasonings were SO good!
Been going to Babe’s ever since it was the original spot in Roanoke. So happy they have added a few gluten free options to the small menu. Roasted Chicken and Fried Catfish are always safe bets on gluten free plus they are crazy good. Stay away from the gravy, biscuits, and salad but enjoy the rest of the sides.
Staff were knowledgeable about what was GF or not. GF menu items were limited, but delicious: smoked chicken, fried catfish (dedicated fryer), mashed potatoes (NOT gravy), green beans, and creamed corn. The salad was NOT GF, nor was the bbq sauce or the amarillo sauce—so bring your own dressing with you if you want it! The smoked chicken was very flavorful and juicy, so it didn’t need any sauce for dipping. Would definitely be back again!
Babes has many sides that are gluten free such as the corn, green beans, and mashed potatoes (no gravy). The sides to avoid are the salad, biscuits, and gravy. The meat that is gluten free is the smoked chicken and fried catfish. The fried catfish is fried in a dedicated gluten free fryer. My daughter has Celiacs and had no issue there.
hello! just wanted to give an update; green beans, corn, mashed potatoes, smoked chicken, and the fried catfish are all gluten free! very good
