I have a very sensitive gluten allergy. Cross contamination will do me in within minutes. The menu is unmarked as having an GF options but I had heard a rumor they had some options. I asked the cashier and she was super knowledgeable. They have a gf bun that they can sub with. I eat vegetarian so asked for the veggie burger with gf bun and the cashier asked about allergy vs preference. She suggested the portobello sandwich as the veg burger was NOT gf. This was a delicious option! It came on more of a bun than bread, but that bun is fantastic. The kind of good that makes you panic inside as you check everyone else’s to make sure yours is different. This is only slightly different visually (smaller and thinner) so the panic was real for a few minutes until I did a closer comparison to the others at my table. I’m thrilled to have found an option at a COVID friendly place that I can enjoy along with my meat-eating friends/family.
No dedicated GF fryer anymore, so steer clear of the fries! Also, for those with dairy allergies, make sure to request a GF bun WITHOUT butter on it. Have them flag your allergies, and you should be fine :)
Wanted to share my experience for those who have heard mixed reviews about it.
Ordered: Farm Burger, no cheese, with grilled onions. Added avocado 🥑. Side dish: fruit cup. I didn’t ask for a GF bun but they gave me one anyway lol.
I asked them to clean a part of the grill for my burger, since the burgers and buns are prepared on the same grill surface. I also said it was for a “gluten allergy” because that’s the way they understand it.
I loved the higher quality fruit (not just melons), the burger with all the toppings was amazing, and I felt like they understood it well! It’s been about an hour since I’ve eaten and I feel great! I’m one of those who gets severe immune system responses from gluten and am careful with who I’d recommend. Give them a try 😊💙
I write about their options and received a lovely response: “We have a number of gluten free options. We offer a gluten free bun for all our burgers and sandwiches. All of our salads are gluten free except the chicken Thai salad or ahi Thai salad. The spicy Thai vinaigrette has gluten in it. All of our smoked items are gluten free. And we have a dedicated fryer for our French fries and at times our sweet potato fries.
Be sure when placing your order to tell the cashier that you have a gluten allergy. We take every precaution to ensure there is no cross contamination. Lastly, a number of our items come with our homemade focaccia bread. You will need to ask them to leave it off.” We didn’t even have to remind them of the focaccia. Our food was delicious and perfect. We would love to try more from them.
If you have celiac, this may not be the best choice for you. While they do offer items with gluten free ingredients, including GF free buns, they aren't all that careful in their food preparation and cross contamination is very likely here. If you're careful and aren't really sensitive to gluten, you probably can get away with it. If you are, I'd avoid it. Some of the help just aren't that careful or celiac savvy,
I have been here lots! This was the first visit since my daughter was diagnosed w/celiac. They offer gf buns and they do have a dedicated fryer. Their staff is not knowledgeable about gf items and she kept saying my daughter had an allergy-even though I explained it is more than that. They don't offer very gf items, and this visit they were off their game with taste. I won't go back with my celiac kid.
Joe's Farm Grill makes you feel at home with their beautiful agriculture surroundings, picnic tables and friendly staff. They grow their own vegetables for menu items right there on property at the Agritopia Farm . You haven't had a fresh salad until you've bitten into Joe's farm fresh salad with vegetables that were harvested hours before. With a dedicated gluten-free fryer, French fries and fried corn tortillas are a safe, glutenfree option. Just make sure to always let them know when ordering that you are gluten-free.
Good food GF buns and dedicated fryer what more can you ask for?
Lots of menu options and gluten free buns. Very knowledgeable staff. Great place to eat.
