Burger21 is a small burger chain with a dozen or so franchises along the southeast coast and a bit in the Midwest. They do burgers better, fresher blah blah than all the other gourmet burger chains. Sure. Anyway, the burgers and fries are good. They have decent gf buns and indicate well on their menu what is gf. Staff picked up easily on the gf order and the burger came out on a tray with a big gf sticker. Good stuff.

Tasty burger and fries! The menu was very descriptive as to what is and is not gluten free, and even lists sauces. Didn’t get sick! Food quality was good; on par with Red Robin.

Burgers with buns! Excellent fries!! Fun sauces!! What’s not to love? Staff was so knowledgeable and friendly. They even have GF milkshakes but didn’t have room to try those.

The main menu has the burgers that are GF labeled (there are several and they have GF buns). They also do GF French fries!! This was a last minute decision and we both agreed that it’s delicious for both of us (he isn’t GF)!

The service was awesome! He noted and separated my gluten free order from the others. Food was hot and delicious! I got the kids grilled cheese and the bread was soft. All together, it was a great meal and will be returning.

Updating my review bc service is much better lately. We order from here at least once a month. Kids love their burgers with GF buns, delicious fries and yummy milkshakes.

We used to go regularly but service has gone downhill in the past 12-18 months. No issues with the GF food and they do well labeling and making fresh fries.

My wife and I visited this weekend. She has gluten intolerance, not diagnosed with celiac. She ordered the mushroom burger, specifically labeled GF, and specifically asked for a gluten free bun. She woke up this morning with definite symptoms of eating gluten - very severe reaction.

08/2014 - This is a great new option for quick food in the area.

07/2015 - Update: from 5 stars to 3

I've been coming here for a year now. I've never gotten sick here. That said, they must have changed their burger recipe fairly recently -- they are INCREDIBLY salty to the point where we've stopped frequenting it.

The GF milk shakes are wonderful!! The buns are lighter than I've come to expect with GF buns and crumble, and today the toppings were surprisingly sparse. Still, it was another good meal

Separate fryer and hyper-awareness about celiac. Food is great. The GF hamburger bun isn't terrible either.

This was a great experience for the entire family. Delicious juicy burgers on GF bread with awesome shoe string fries. All of our baskets of food were identified with GF stickers. Highly recommend this place.

Dedicated fryers, careful handling of food, clearly marked gluten free items on the menu and for the condiments, and a bun for a burger that didn’t disintegrate as soon as you touch it or bite it. For sure will be returning

Burger 21 has gluten free Burger buns ($2) and impossible burgers. I was not able to order from the kiosk because the gluten free bun wasn't an option to substitute in, so I went to the counter and when I mentioned a gluten allergy the staff member immediately grabbed the allergen binder and asked what I was thinking of ordering. The employee checked the items for safety and then entered my order at the register. Unfortunately the fries were not gluten free. Nonetheless, glad to have a safe gluten free option at the airport.
