They have GF buns and the friendly waitress informed me that the fries were not GF and offered sides such as a house salad instead. The GF bun was pretty good and did not get crummy or fall apart. Overall, I was not that impressed with the food.

Sadly, very little on their menu is gluten free and the risk of cross contamination is very high. The waiter did a great job helping me find something that would be safe (a burger with a gluten free bun with a topping removed, side house salad) and I still became sick from cross contamination.

Ate here with some friends yesterday, the server asked if it was an allergy and when I called ahead they were very knowledgeable about cross contamination. However, the options are quite limited, you can only get a burger with gf bun and salad. The bun was one of the better ones I had at a restaurant and the caesar salad was the best Ive ever had.

very limited GF options and very difficult to tell what is/can be gf. i always order a burger because i can get a gf bun, but it is served with cosmik fries which are NOT gf. i’m fine for cross contamination but it is an up charge to get a side that is gf and a large up charge for a gf bun (more than most places).

I had a burger with a gf bun. Fries are fired with other items so I had the side salad. They also have ciders.

Not very GF friendly. Nice atmosphere but wait staff was not sure if ciders were GF; only one bottled beer was GF ($11); GF buns for burgers; no GF other designation on menu items; no discussion by staff as to what could be prepared GF; no GF designation on salad dressings. Disappointing for a new restaurant.
