Is there a gluten-free menu?

— No gluten-free information on the menu

They don’t have a GF menu but there are items that can be made Gluten Free. They’ll do any of their burgers with no bun and a LOT of those are still really good. The Honey BBQ chicken sandwich without a bun is totally the Alice Springs chicken from Outback. Food is really good, the Brown Bear in Shelby might be a bit better but the Pentwater one is still great.

Prior to being diagnosed as celiac this was our favorite place in Pentwater to have a burger and fries. Since being diagnosed I was reluctant to try as there were no reviews. I am sensitive celiac. I decided to give it a try this year. I have ordered an olive burger on lettuce bun, no fries (not dedicated). Good burger, I don’t miss the bun. I have had this several times now without issue. I cannot vouch for anything else on the menu. The menu does not list GF items. I always ask the wait staff to note allergy. This review is for the Pentwater restaurant only (their other location is Shelby)
