B.C. Brewery

Update: I came back a week later and got glutened hard by the food, after talking to staff about cross contamination. Next time I'll just have drinks and share if they're actually safe.

This place is great! I'm so happy to have found a place where I can drink beer with family and friends! I'm quite sensitive and the staff were happy to talk through their protocols. They have a self-serve bar, with a mix of gluten and gluten-free beers. The GF beer itself is brewed completely separately from the rest of the beer, with certified GF ingredients. Knowing this, before I even expressed my concern about other patrons not being aware of cross contamination, the staff said if I was really sensitive they are happy to pour behind the bar and they are definitely careful. Could confirm, they even had signs up for staff saying "green tubes for GF beer ONLY" for growler filI. Beer itself was great, and available in can to go. I recommend the Belgian IPA.

Food wise, I've seen mixed reviews here. I have other food allergies as well, and staff were again very good about marking my order and preparing it. They even went to the back to get the ingredients list for some things. I did not get sick! They have an app for ordering food; however, for allergies and celiac I recommend ordering with staff at the counter to make sure your food is clearly marked. Unfortunately, due to supply issues, they were out of most of the food I could eat. But I could still get nachos, which has been forever and a day! Can't wait to go back. Wish I lived closer to go more often.

Go back in time to 2022 when the food was good. Yes, they have gluten free options but the quality is no longer there.

Has some beer options! Great atmosphere and very laid back, sometimes live music and people always have dogs with them. We drive far out of our way to visit this place often. I fear the kitchen isn’t safe after a few slight glutened experiences, staff seems pretty careless and I saw them handle my nachos after tossing pizza crust or tortilla shells. Not confident in the food but the dedicated taps seem safe. I’d be be here a lot more if the staff actually cared and knew how to make actually celiac safe orders.

Dedicated cider tap lines. GF Beer I’m dedicated lines will be available soon. I have heard that the food is not safe though even though it’s listed GF. I just go for the drinks.

Gluten free beer alert!!! They have dedicated tap lines for gluten free options. There were two beers, a cider, and a hard seltzer. They were great! I ordered tacos and the staff understood what celiac disease is and flagged my order.

The best locally brewed brewed gluten free beer I’ve had in Maryland. They usually have one on tap and then sell an assortment in cans.

There’s also a nice selection of gluten free options on their menu.

Definitely worth the trip!!
