Buffalo Wild Wings

The staff was sympathetic to the allergy but this app is what’s mostly getting the 2 stars. If something is fried in the same oil as an item containing gluten, it’s contaminated. Everything at BWW is fried in the same oil. Maybe some people are more sensitive than others, but this is FAR from Celiac Friendly when it comes to the risk of cross contamination.

Celiac friendly?

No

Favorite gluten free wing place. I love all the options.

My go to place when we all want to eat out. Be sure to mention allergy when ordering as the cooks are trained for certain procedures to try to limit cross contamination.

I don't chance cross contamination with eating the fries.

Many gluten free flavored wings options . No dedicated fryer

Food was good. Consistent with what we have experienced at other BWW locations across the south. Unfortunately they skimped on the veggies. Service was very slow considering only two folks were there when we arrived at 5:15. Due to Covid the menu was digital and after taking a few short minutes to review it, we sat for a good ten minutes for her to come take our order. Waitresses were standing around talking at the bar and we finally stopped the manager who was walking by to see if someone would take the order. He said that he would. We never saw the waitress again until she had a third table to assist. Even then she said nothing until she brought our food out. It was evident the manager said something to her as she never once looked me in the eye. Regardless, the food was good, hot and most importantly I didn’t get sick! Took away a star for the service. Brad is the manager and seemed eager to please as he stopped by at the end of the meal to check in with us.

I love BWW but gluten free is not a choice here. The last two times that have came I have order things off the gluten free menu online. Both times it had not end well for me. I definitely get sick and I learn my lesson. Please don't do it you will regret it I promise you.

The fries and traditional wings are fried in a shared fryer with their battered chicken and other non gluten-free items so they aren’t celiac safe. One salad was listed as gluten free but when I asked if the chicken could be grilled on a piece of foil they said they have no foil available. Ended up getting the honey bbq salad with no chicken.

Awful. We ordered the wings and I was food poisoned here. We ended up going to an Urgent Care the next morning because I couldn’t stop throwing up. At the time, I thought that they had great gluten free options so I was going to leave a good review. But with having to get a shot due to the food poisoning here, they get one star. I know this app is dedicated for GF stuff, but I’d just thought that I’d warn people on here so that they don’t get sick for other reasons.

Celiac friendly?

No

Their traditional wings are done in a dedicated gf fryer! Tara is the best and is super knowledgeable. If it’s slow they’ll also do the fries in the dedicated fryer if you ask. They put stickers on the gf boxes and toss the wing in separate baskets to avoid cross contamination. Do not eat the nachos even though they say gf, they can be cross contaminated.

So so delicious. Lots of gf sauce options.

Not all BWW restaurants have a dedicated fryer but this one does. They will fry the traditional wings and fries in the dedicated fryer then mark the box with a purple sticker for “allergy.” Almost all of the wing sauce and dry rubs are gluten free, clearly marked on the nutrition section of the website.

The fries remind me of McDonald’s and the wings are a good size. Overall, generous quantity and good quality.

I ordered traditional chicken wings and French fries. When telling the server my order I made sure to tell them I had celiac and while they do not have a dedicated fryer, she ensured me they would be extremely careful to not use any gluten products near my food while making it and would change their gloves. After eating the food, I had none of my regular Celiac symptoms!

Their traditional wings and fries are my go to foods with them. I always get mild sauce, carrots, and celery.

I have been ordering from them weekly since the pandemic started. Having it delivered through door dash saves me from going out and driving.

Had a very good understanding of celiac. The kitchen manager came out and talked to me to make sure everything would be safe. They also gave me a allergen book and it listed all the things that were gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have a separate fryolator for celiacs, but you have to ask for it. The option isn’t listed anywhere and it’s never been offered to me. The staff are spotty on their knowledge of what is and isn’t GF, but the corporate website is very informative and lists all of the safe options. They always have several options for safe drinks.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My wife is celiac and we had heard from a friend who is also celiac that this BWW does an excellent job. They were right. We told our server and a manager came out to discuss things with us. Their traditional wings have their own deep fryer that is a gluten free fryer. They were also able to drop fries in that fryer, since it wasn’t that busy (note: they dropped the fries first, without the wings, so those came out early like an appetizer). So my wife and I split a basket of fries and 20 wings. The staff was helpful and cognizant off cross contamination. If you’re celiac and craving wings, this is a great place to go.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I followed the gluten free menu on the website. I got traditional wings with honey bbq and parm garlic sauce and they were soo good. I also got chips and queso as an appetizer and it was good too! They have angry orchard cider for drinks

VERY limited options. No fried food options as the fryers are NOT dedicated to no gluten items.

Celiac friendly?

No

I got extremely sick once, eating something they claimed was gluten free. I will never go back again.

Celiac friendly?

No

Staff was knowledgeable and when I mentioned I am celiac they provided me with an allergen menu. Felt great to eat wings and fries worry free!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They had Great gluten free wings

Buffalo Wild Wings has a dedicated gluten free fryer for their traditional wings and fries. The tortilla chips are gluten free as well. There is a wide variety of GF sauces and dressings. Wait staff was knowledgeable and friendly!

They have a gluten free menu, BUT when testing the supposedly gluten free traditional wings with my Nima sensor, two different sauce types tested positive for gluten. Staff was super friendly, but I was unable to eat due to results.

Celiac friendly?

No

Locations vary greatly. Don't recommend this one for celiac. Okay for gluten avoidant but service is lacking.

Celiac friendly?

No

The staff is nice, but they are normally very busy. If you get them right as they open, then you can eat their french fries with no problem.

Not Celiac friendly. I had cross contamination on my traditional wings and wasn’t feeling well afterwards. Do not recommend if you are Celiac.

Celiac friendly?

No

They baked the wings - takes about 45 minutes but they were really good. A treat for my son! We also ordered nachos and they were gf. Many of the wings sauces are gf. Waitress was somewhat knowledgeable. But she did go and ask the kitchen questions. My son did not have a reaction after. We’d try it again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Obviously as a Celiac you can’t eat or expect a fried chicken wing joint to have gluten free oil. The management, servers and cooks will take special preparation/instruction and bake your wings. Will not be as crisp but still very good. FYI, it will take a bit longer so put in order before the rest of the orders. A few gluten free options for sauces. I appreciate that they will accommodate as much as they can!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This is new but they now offer a separate fryer if you indicate an allergy. They also will toss your wings in a separate bowl. I would talk to the manager to make sure they get it right. The manager delivered the wings and the plate had a purple dot indicating an allergy.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I love Buffalo Wild Wings, my favorite place to get wings actually! Now, there is cross contamination, but the traditional chicken wings are naturally gluten free, minus the cross contamination. I normally get the Sweet BBQ traditional wings and fries, along with ranch. I’ve never had a problem at any of the establishments, and continue to eat there whenever I can!

A manager came by right away when I asked our server about gluten free items. He brought out a binder of ingredients in each dish and answered my questions. The traditional wings are fried in a separate fryer than breaded items and most sauces are GF. I was able to eat fries too without having a reaction! Wonderful service that exceeded my expectations.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The only food they offer that’s not cross contaminated (no wings!) is celery & carrots. Salad dressing not gf

Celiac friendly?

No

All wings are cooked in same frier as chicken strips so not good for Celiac disease

They do not use a dedicated fryer for their non breaded wings. They have an allergen menu online that does list possible contamination but the list for non fried gf is very limited. Their wings made me realize that I cannot have their high level of contamination.

Don’t eat here! There’s too much cross-contamination. No matter what, you’ll be sick

Celiac friendly?

No

One of the best BWW I’ve been too. Made an allergy friendly naked tenders at 11pm at night and didn’t get sick. The manager even came out to talk to me to ensure everything was gluten free. Very impressed!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The fryers are not dedicated, so you will get glutened. Staff was helpful but told me ‘I think’ the boneless wings were gluten free, which should have been a red flag. I told them it was important for me to know because it is like food poisoning. The person taking my offer was very polite, however and showed me the ingredient binder, however it does not correlate with the fryers.

Celiac friendly?

No

Great place. Mentioned to the waiter how a prior review mentioned a dedicated fryer for gluten free items, she didn’t know, so I made my wing order and was immediately met by the manager. Who was very understanding of the allergy and tried everything to make it right before the order was placed but there is no dedicated fryer for traditional wings, so I had to resort to grilled chicken with carrots and that even got me sick. If I wasn’t celiac I’d give it 4/5 stars for the way the manager handled the situation, but this is a gluten free app, trying to keep people with celiac disease from having to feel the effects of coming into contact with allergens. This place gets a 1/5 stars for being a great place to eat unless you are allergic to gluten 😂

BBW has one of the best allergen menus I have ever seen so it’s kind of annoying that they don’t do anything for you if you have an allergy. If something does not have gluten in it then it has been cross contaminated with something that has gluten. I do eat here every now and then but I can only order one thing. The naked tenders. You have to order a different side other than fries so I usually get carrot sticks. I get the lemon pepper seasoning so I can still get the taste of wings without actually having wings. I would not recommend but if you find yourself needed food, there is something you can order.

Celiac friendly?

No

Staff was knowledgeable and able to accommodate GF items. I ordered the bone-in wings with carrots/celery. Plenty of flavors to pick from. I did not have any issues. Be sure to speak with your server and ask questions to ensure their practices haven’t changed. They explained they have a dedicated fryer, label your food, and make an announcement in the kitchen when an allergy order occurs.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The wings were okay, but it took forever to get served and the server forgot to put in my side, so it didn’t arrive till after my meal. Not the worst dining experience but I can get better wings elsewhere, with better service and minus the 20 televisions.

I work at this location and it is 100% not gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

No

My waiter gave me an allergy binder full of entrees and all the sauces! Very helpful if it contained gluten wheat milk or soy it had an X next to it very organized and easy to read

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They had a separate gluten free menu and were helpful.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We ordered the Traditional wings and Honey BBQ the sauce was advised to be Gluten freeOur container had four Boneless wings within the container of Traditional. We called the Manager and he told us that the Tumbler they use foe the wings does both traditional and Boneless.

Celiac friendly?

No

The ONLY thing that’s not cross contaminated is the celery per my last conversation with the manager 👎🏽

Celiac friendly?

No

I went to BWW to celebrate someone's birthday. I asked if they had a gluten free menu. The waiter told me that I "came to the wrong place." I already feel like an outsider, not being able to eat regular food, but that comment made me feel unwelcome. The manager is the only person allowed to talk to guests about GF options. He brought me a binder with all their menu items and all the potential allergens. There was nothing I could eat, so I ordered a veggie boat. So disappointing.

Kitchen isn’t dedicated gluten free so wouldn’t be safe for celiac. The website has good info about what options are gluten and wheat free.

No dedicated fryer. Manager knowledgeable and helpful. Very limited menu for gf - no wings, no fries. Ordered naked tenders with side salad and hot sauce. No bad reaction.

Great at gluten free if you dine in. However every time I order it to go (over the phone or online) and say it’s an allergy, they always mess up the order and include bread or something g else with wheat. I’ve never had any issues dining in but they can’t seem to get it figured out when ordering it to go.

Celiac friendly?
