We found Buff’s before I went GF and I thought I was never going to be able to eat there again but I was wrong! I love their amazingly tasty burgers and tried the grilled chicken sandwich (the Momo) today and it was YUMMY - had a kale slaw! I did not have any issues and would definitely recommend! They have a dedicated fryer for tots and fries so yay for Buff’s! The kid at the counter gave me the GF “spiel” and when I asked very specific questions he didn’t falter but offered to double check for me anyway! When we are anywhere near IKEA on I-10, Buff’s is a must! We wish they had a Woodlands area location!!

Couldn’t see my food being made, and could tell there was cross contamination even after I stated I was gluten free. Not a huge contamination, but enough for me to notice.

I had a burger with GF bun, no sauce. Burger was excellent, as was my GF bun. Very satisfied. I get very puffy after gluten though, and noticed my face was swollen after eating here, so I would guess some sort of cross contamination happened. I wasn’t super insistent that my food needed to be celiac friendly though, so I can’t fault them too much for it. Food was excellent though, I’d come again for sure.

Their food is excellent, including the gluten free bun. Recently, they added a dedicated fryer for their fries. I do recommend reminding them that they need to grill the gluten-free bun in an area, which has not touched gluten. We have had no problems here. It’s a family favorite. Monday and Tuesday nights are kids eat free, and there is a special coupon code on their Facebook page for discounted adult meals.

Staff was good about helping to decide between their lettuce wrap and their gluten free bun from neighbor "Gluten Free Nation". I guess they worked together to develop and improve the bun and it's amazing! The softest and lightest GF burger bun I've ever had. You can barely tell the difference, which is saying a lot!

When you first see that it's is only $9.95 for a burger you think oh that is pretty great. But no. Add $2 for a poorly cooked, cold gluten free bun (and they have the place that makes them next door! You think they would know how too cook them!) not just that but it doesn't come with any side. And even better their fries ARE NOT gluten free!! They really need to edit the info on the app.

We ended up getting three burgers (and they aren't huge or anything) one fry which I could not eat a water and two fountain drinks for $60!!! It's insane.

The only good thing was the lady who brought are food told me about the fries before I dug in. (And yes I had asked the cashier and made it super clear I was gf) and she brought me a side salad for free which was good but something I could easily make at home.

Final verdict: Pretentious and over priced.

AMAZING food. They use Gluten Free Nation hamburger buns (GF Nation's store is right next to them). Staff was very friendly and answered all my questions, and the food was delicious. Best GF burger I have had in almost 6 years of being completely off gluten.
