Review


Being celiac it isn’t very often I get to eat a burger and, while it’s something I regularly crave, with most places it’s just not even worth taking the risk. From Grubs online experience, to inside the restaurant, I felt totally confident. They have an allergen specific menu and all the staff were able to instruct confidentially about all allergies, not just celiac - the manger even came and checked in everything with me though all the staff were perfectly helpful and efficient. They have a gluten free dedicated fryer and although they don’t offer regular fries in it, they do amazing sweet potato waffle fries. They didn’t want to make promises, but I took a chance and had literally zero reaction. I also ordered their Front Porch burger with cheese, with a gluten free bun. Usually I skip the bun altogether but for once I thought I’d give it a try and I AM SO GLAD I DID! Literally the best gluten free bun I’ve ever had - soft and squashy, just like a burger bun should be! Admittedly, it’s a long time since I’ve eaten a regular bun, but I was hard pressed to tell the difference! (They tell me they use Ancient Grains gluten free buns). The burger itself was also amazing - tasty and juicy. My husband had a regular burger as he has no gluten issues and he said it was one of the better burgers he’s had and (lucky him!) he gets to eat them a lot! It’s 2 hours later and I have had zero reaction at all. This is not normal for me, even with some of my best restaurant experiences I usually have at least a tiny reaction. Seriously one of the best celiac restaurant experiences I’ve had, and I honestly could almost cry about the fact I have finally found a place I can get a great burger! EAT HERE!!!
