THE BEST! The fried chicken and all the sides are gluten free and they have good gluten free buns. The fried chicken sandwich reminds me of Chick-fil-A it’s SO GOOD. Their burgers are great too. I’ve eaten here 20+ times and never gotten sick

For persons with multiple food sensitivities: While the fried pickles are coated in a GF mix, they are marinated in Buttermilk (dairy). All the fryer oil is soybean oil.

This place is definitely for families i.e. little kids. The burgers are in fact gluten-free. It’s best to get them wrapped up in lettuce. It’s very noisy. And the burgers are delicious and messy. The fries come with a spicy salt, blech.

Hat Creek has the best gf burger buns I’ve had so far! I’ve tried gf buns at other restaurants and they always seem to be hard and crumbly. These gf buns are great and the burgers are delicious!

Person taking orders was very knowledgeable about gluten free and immediately called out for staff to change gloves when handling my order. The gf bun on my chicken sandwich was the softest gf bun I’ve ever had and was delicious! I did have to pay extra for the gf bun which I thought was not cool since the restaurant is all about gf, but, it really was worth it!

Hat Creek has great chicken flashers. They are how I would make fried boneless chicken chunks if I did it myself. Their fryer is gluten free so you can also enjoy tater tots, fries, and fried pickles. I’m glad I stopped in.

Dedicated fryers! Everything fried is gf. However, not everything in the restaurant is marked so ask before trying- for example the Happy Sauce is not gf and is not marked. Also, the “protocol” for changing gloves was a little shaky, like they were still figuring it out but they did it. So far so good. I ordered a second order of fries.

This location’s night staff is NOT looking out for my safety and is not paying attention to detail. I ordered a gluten free Big Hat combo tonight in the drive thru and repeated gluten free twice, and the girl even repeated it back to me. I have Celiac disease and am unable to eat any sort of gluten which is why I am a frequent customer at Hat Creek as this location offers outstanding GF options. However, none of this matters when they get the order wrong and I get home (after they close) and it’s a standard white wheat bun! This is literally the second time in a row that my order has been messed up, and I have lost out on a meal I’ve been craving not to mention $25 now!! I can’t trust that my autoimmune disease and special dietary needs are being taken serious at Hat Creek - Keller, and now I’m questioning if there isn’t cross contamination taking place in their kitchen if they can’t seem to get an order right twice in a row….

I LOVE Hat Creek! Every side is gluten free, so you don’t have to worry about cross contamination, and the nuggets and wings are gluten free. You can also get the burgers on a gluten free bun, lettuce wrapped, or in a bowl. And staff will change their gloves if they know you have an allergy. Highly recommend! This place is my go to!

I've eaten here on several occasions and never gotten sick from it. Staff don't bat an eye if you mention having a gluten/wheat allergy, it's clearly a common thing for them. All the fried foods are gluten free. They sometimes have gluten free buns, other times you have to settle for lettuce wrapped if you want a burger. Burgers are good, chicken flashers vary from batch to batch, sometimes they're great, other times they just taste like straight up salt & pepper. Sweet potato fries and tater tots are fantastic! Atmosphere is loud, so if you're sensitive to loud noise like I am, bring earplugs. I keep a pair of Loop noise dulling earplugs with me at all times in my purse for situations like that, but it's something to be aware of.
