BJ's Brewhouse

Celiac friendly?

No

GF isn’t really GF. Maybe for those avoiding gluten per choice but not if Celiac. I had the GF pizza and now sick. So disappointed and disgusted with restaurants. I should have known better.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff is very knowledgeable about being gluten friendly. If you notify your server up front, they will select the gluten sensitive option on their pad to let the kitchen know. Even though the selection isn’t that large, the food is quite good. My wife has celiac disease and she loves getting the gluten free pizza and pizzookie for dessert. Good place.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have Celiac Diease so I have to be careful where I eat and what I eat. I had the Roasted Shrimp Quinoa Bowl and it was delish! I didn't react to it at all. The Gluten free pizza is also very good. I love BJs!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free pizza, salmon, steak, salads. Yummy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We always get the gluten free pizza. The crust is fantastic! The staff is pretty knowledgable about Celiac Disease and relaying the message to the kitchen that the meal is for someone with Celiac or a "gluten allergy". They assure that the staff changes gloves and the meal is cooked in a clean area. They also have a gluten free cookie desert that is super yummy! This is our kiddos favorite place!

I nearly cried when I saw they had a gf pizookie. My kids hardly get dessert! Now they can enjoy one!

Always accommodating and careful of cross contamination

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gluten free menu

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good! It's one of my go to places when out with friends. The waitstaff is always helpful but the gluten free menu is a big help

Staff training in GF not great. Overpriced. Food is mediocre.

Service is very slow and unorganized.. Gf training is very horriable.. NEVER EVER coming back.. Have given the Waco location too many chances and they always mees up.. Managers are never around.. The temple location and others are great and the food too.. Waco location is horrible .. Can make you very sick

The GF pizza tasted good but they are clueless to gluten free. Everyone in our GF party got sick! Only offered Redbridge for GF Beer.

Their gluten free pizza is the best so far that I've tasted!! And they sell several different gluten free beers!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wanted to celebrate my Mother-In-Law's birthday with our family. I have Celiac's disease (severe Gluten Allergy), so finding a place that everyone will enjoy AND be safe for me to eat is always a problem. Places that offer both standard meals and gluten sensitive options (they can't say "gluten free" because of possible cross-contamination) are always a crap shoot. My ability to eat out safely is truly in the hands of those that prepare and handle my meal. Everyone knows that BJ's food and brews are delicious...plus the PIZOOKIES!! but what always sets one location from another is their customer service and this BJ's is the absolute best!!! Ryan T and his manager (I'm sorry I don't remember his name) truly went above and beyond! From the moment I told Ryan that I had a gluten allergy he was so careful. They made every accommodation they could and when I had a question about something (like sauces) Ryan was quick to find out the answer. When he didn't know the answer, he checked with the manager. There was even a moment where the manager took the time to visit our table just to make certain my meal was safe to eat. Really above and beyond! I always feel like a burden to the server/restaurant when going out to eat. Not many places/people understand that "gluten free" isn't always a choice... it's a necessity. PLUS, it's the entire restaurant that is involved! Everyone that handles the food, plate, glasses, silverware is involved to help make sure cross-contamination doesn't ruin the gluten free experience. Even a spatula or a glove that has handled bread/gluten can ruin my time out with my family for the ENTIRE DAY. Ryan, his manager, and the entire food prep team gave us the best customer service and for that they deserve a standing ovation! Truly, I thank you all for helping my family celebrate my MIL birthday and I look forward to visiting again :)

We were on vacation in HB and stopped in for dinner. My celiac son had a gf pizza. He liked it and didn’t have any issues after. BJ’s is one of our go-to restaurants at home. This location was exactly what we expected from the chain.

This used to be a favorite place to go when visiting Orlando, but the last 2 trips the service was poor, the restaurant is dirty and bathrooms were overflowing with trash. It’s the little things that give you clues to how attentive the staff will be with your food!

Minha experiência foi ÓTIMA , o restaurante possui menu gluten free ! O pedido foi uma Cheese Pizza GF , além de crocante ela estava maravilhosa !!!!! Pizza de verdade e Gluten Free !!!

Waitress was very helpful. Got me a gluten free menu and a printout with all the allergens on it as well. The gluten free pizza was delicious! Good experience overall

Celiac friendly?

No

Called and spoke to the manager before coming down and he reassured me they take every precaution for Celiacs. Ordered the chicken Cesar salad because that is easy and sure enough the salad came with croutons! On top of waiting over an hour to sit and another hour to get our food. Never again

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Come here often, staff is very knowledgeable about gluten. GF pizza is great and paired with an angry orchard cider is perfect!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had the gf pizza and it was the best pizza I've had in years! They are very knowledgeable about cross contamination. I also got the Pizookie for dessert. Yummm

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We eat gf pizza here all the time! Monday nights are half off pizza night for both dine in and carry out. It’s become our pizza carry out option since it’s safe for the whole family. I’ve gotten the gf pazookie when dining in with the family, and we really enjoyed that as well!

Several GF items never got sick from any visit Good always good And they even have GF pizzookie

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I only eat a few select items from here, but have never gotten sick. The only certified gluten free item is the GF personal pizza. It's a decent pizza for a chain, and I appreciate having the option. There are other items on menu that can be made GF, but make sure to talk to the staff about needing it to be celiac safe.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very knowledgeable and helpful staff regarding gluten! They have the most extensive gf menu I’ve seen! (Even desserts!) dedicated pizza oven, yay!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious, good about gf and contamination risks. Fries are not an option due to the contamination which sucks. The broccoli cheddar soup is gf and so freakin good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wonderful staff, fully aware of the difficulties with Celiacs. They had several GF options one of which was pizza. Server even went so far as to tell me how they prepare it in a seperate area and walk it out seperate. Manager was attentive to be sure procedures are followed. Even have a gf dessert. Made my son very very happy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The pizza was really good! I wish they had a dedicated fryer to be able to eat fries though.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The Peruvian quinoa dish with salmon is really good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Our waiter was very knowledgeable about gf items and preparation. At a different location, I had tried the gf pizookie multiple times- it was always undercooked and waitstaff would be confused as to why my "cookie" was dripping off my spoon. Here, our waiter simply said they have to bake it twice. First time I was able to enjoy their pizookie! My meal was also great.

My daughter enjoys their gluten free pizza - but LOVES the GF pizookie!! Warm chocolate chip cookie with ice cream - yum!’n

Celiac friendly?

No

There is a well described menu and I have not gotten sick but my plate came out with BBQ sauce on it from my husbands burger. Despite telling them that I had a gluten allergy. When I pointed it out, the waitress looked at me and said “and?”

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free pizza was bomb! Staff were nice and aware of celiac. There was a separate Gluten free menu. Staff assured me that the food for gluten is prepared in a separate area. A lot of options are available. Will eat here again.

I love BJ’s! Haven’t had a bad meal there yet! Two of my favorite, go to meals are: ENLIGHTENED SALMON QUINOA BOWL & ENLIGHTENED BLACKENED CHICKEN ZUCCHINI NOODLES Check out their allergy listen. They also have it clearly stated on the menu.

I love coming here for dinner. The pork chops are delicious! It’s such a treat to be able to get dessert at a restaurant and it’s delicious!

Overall not impressed. The reviews were really good, but I was underwhelmed. The wait was long, the soda machine had no carbonation, and I got the wrong kind of bowl. Would not go back unless there was nothing else.

Celiac friendly?

No

Staff seemed knowledgeable and server said chef was aware of celiac disease and the need for no cross contamination but I was very sick within the hour of eating here.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Dedicated GF menu. Had the Cheeseburger with a side of white cheddar mashed potatoes. They don’t have a dedicated frier so French fries aren’t an option but they had several other sides to choose from. I enjoyed my meal here! (Had a pizza at a different location earlier in the week - great meal and experience then too!)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have a dedicated GF menu with lots of options. Manager indicated pizza was the safest option so I went that route, picking the Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza. It was excellent! Ate the entire pizza and no issues. Waitress indicated they had a GF cider but I passed on that. (Ate at a different location later in the week. Had the Cheeseburger with cheese mashed potato this time - it was great and no issues)

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The GF pizza is some of the best I’ve had, and the GF pizookie was fantastic! I felt great afterwards. I will definitely return.

On Quality & Quantity

We loved BJs before I was diagnosed and found a variety of options after. The servers seemed knowledgeable and the food was great. My wife even found the GF Pizzookie very similar to their 'regular' dessert.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Server was very knowledgeable. Had separate 2 page gf menu. Pizzookie was amazing - will be my go to dessert!

Celiac friendly?

No

Big menu but not many options. Got sick here.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Had an excellent gluten free pizza here. They have an extensive gluten free menu and staff was knowledgeable. They even confirmed for me that the pizza was gf when it was brought to the table. I wait to post reviews to see if I react...very happy to say no reaction!

I ate here several times during the week and have had a great meal every time. Nice variety.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Our bartender (Megan) was great. Any questions I had about the money she answered. If she didn’t have an answer, she went to the kitchen and got it. Food was great and service was solid. I would absolutely recommend.

Celiac friendly?

No

I had high hopes for this location as I have had great experiences at another Bj’s out of state. Unfortunately, we did not have a great experience as my daughter’s burger came out with a gluten bun, which made her cry and feel unsafe eating the burger the remade her with the GF bun she requested the first time. Also, I ordered a GF pizza with no cheese due to dairy allergy and my pizza came out with cheese on it. The waitress even read our large order back to me before giving it to the kitchen and told them they would put the allergy alert on everything. After the issues occurred she kept saying the kitchen staff gets really nervous with allergy orders and have had a lot of problems with them. She also said, “I knew that bun looked too good to be true gluten free.” Well then why would she still serve it? This did not help anything and made me wonder what else may include gluten or be cross contaminated. I would give this location zero stars if I could, and needless to say I do not recommend and will not be returning.

This is the first place I have ate at since I went gf. The waitress was very kind and helped me pick out a side. I got the shroom and swiss burger with a gf bun. The bun wasnt bad, it was a biscuit texture. I got a baked potato as my side.

I have additional food intolerances besides gluten. The staff was great and accommodated my needs

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have a separate GFmenu and items are labeled well in the menu. They even have a GF version of their signature dessert. The wait staff were knowledgeable about GF items.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Our go-to kid friendly place while in Tacoma- big and varied GF menu (including dessert) and celiac daughter never gets sick

Gf pizza and pizookie were great, no tummy issues after either so no cc!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great food and atmosphere. They had a separate gluten free menu and I didn’t get sick!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My waitress was celiac and was SUPER knowledgeable and had wonderful recommendations!

Celiac friendly?

No

Gluten free hamburger was served with gluten french fries even after speaking at length with server about celiac disease. The hamburger was remade and served with bacon on the side. After eating the bacon, a greasy gluten fry was sitting on the plate. Definitely not celiac safe.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love the food here! Huge GF menu and even GF dessert!!! I go here on a regular basis.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Their staff is fully aware of Celiac protocol and they are proactive of your needs. I have ordered the Moroccan Chicken and also the GF pizza. All items were delicious. I have returned several times with no issues.

Celiac friendly?

No

Ate here after seeing all of the glowing reviews. . . and boy am I paying for it. Started having symptoms almost immediately after eating. Do not eat here if you have Celiac Disease.

I have eaten here several times. I have Celiac disease and am extremely sensitive to cross contamination. They have a 2-page gluten free menu offering pizzas, salad, burgers and a few other things as well as their signature dessert, a giant gooey chocolate chip cookie with ice cream. I always stress to them how severe my gluten "allergy" is and request they change their gloves and I have never gotten sick. Be aware their fries are NOT gluten free.

Wow! This is some good pizza! About the best GF I've ever had! Couple years later...still the best!

I’ve gotten pizzas here and had pretty good luck with them, but last time I got a Caesar salad with chicken, told them I was celiac, and was puking within an hour.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This BJ’s is great! I had the spinach/artichoke dip (comes with veggies instead of chips), burger with GF bun, baked potato, and pizookie (no ice cream) and it was all delicious. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about all the GF options and made me feel very safe. And best of all, I didn’t get sick!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I actually work at this restaurant and they do a fantastic job of keeping everything separate and there is a large Gf menu
