Me and my husband LOVE this place. They are super well educated about celiac disease. They are super cautious about cross contamination, as they have a whole separate fryer for all flourless and gluten free items. They have a full gluten free menu with a variety of options, including gluten free pasta and rolls. I’ve been here countless times and it never let me down. They also have complementary tater tots that are gluten free!! Can’t go wrong
Im super impressed by the large GF menu, however the staff is not well trained on celiac/cross-contamination, despite the owner’s wife being celiac. We were brought to a very dirty table full of crumbs. Salt shaker was super sticky with tons of crumbs also. Just all around dirty and unsanitized menus and table and everything on it, which is unfortunate because the silverware goes directly on the table. I haven’t been here in years because I was never impressed with the service previously but came back after a celiac diagnosis because of the GF selection. Ron’s felt much safer and more educated on celiac.
I ordered from here this afternoon and got the New Orleans pasta— I confirmed that I ordered it from the “Gluten Free Entrees” section on DoorDash… it wasn’t marked GF when it arrived, and I was suspicious about whether or not the penne was actually GF within the first few bites… I finished it, because I gaslit myself into believing that it was probably a great corn pasta. Needless to say, an hour later I was violently throwing up… this is a maaaaajor screw-up from the kitchen, and made me VERY sick right before a flight for vacation.

Great place to eat if you have Celiacs GF tater tots, had an excellent stew
I was diagnosed with Celiac two years ago and was SO happy to find Liberty Union. They are literally a mile from my house and we eat there all the time. It's our go-to place as it offers not only an extensive gluten free menu, but offers something for everyone's taste.
We spoke extensively to the manager about the gluten free menu. It turns out that both of the owner's wives have Celiac. They take great care in their prep and have completely separate fryers for the complimentary tater tots and French fries. Yes, you can eat fries without worry if you chose too.
I've never had an issue with eating here and fingers crossed, it stays that way.

Alas, I did have an awful reaction after eating at the Phoenixville location. My follow-up phone call to a manager was to request re-training. Someone in the kitchen messed up, and I was very sick for many hours. I am quite disappointed, as this was my go-to place. Getting glutened is horrible, and I am sad I will not return. I know it is always a risk, unless in a dedicated gluten free eatery. I had many safe visits here until end of July, 2023.
I have been eating here for 8 years. I have a very severe reaction when glutened and have NEVER had an issue here. The staff seem knowledgeable. I was here yesterday, and the choices are varied and delicious. I had a
Margherita flatbread, and tater tots to start. In the past I have enjoyed wings, fish tacos, Chicken salad sandwich, as well as burgers. I understand the risk when a restaurant offers gluten as well as gluten free choices. After at least 50 visits, no issues.
Just ate here on a road trip and it was seriously amazing! It has a full, 2-sided GF menu with everything you would expect at a sports bar/restaurant! If I lived in the area I would 100% definitely be back! :)
I came here while outta town for work, read the reviews and felt confident coming here. The server was so kind, even when I questioned the gluten free roll. For real I couldn’t believe it was GF it was so delicious. She said her dad was the owner and that her mom has celiac so they take it very serious. Will definitely be back if I’m ever in the area again!
I have enjoyed wings and tater tots here. I know they have other options, just haven’t been there much. Dedicated fryer. Staff knowledgeable. GF menu online.
Excellent food. Full gf menu. Complimentary tator tots for the table. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Food is over the top! Glad we found this place! Alot to choose on Gluten-free menu! Great staff!
Went here last week and had an amazing burger, even had to double check it was gluten free because it looked so good! Dedicated fryer which was nice for the tots coming out
Great experience. They have an entire gluten free menu with many options! They have a gluten free fryer. I NIMA tested my New Orleans pasta dish and no gluten was detected.
My son has celiac and loves that the fries have a dedicated fryer. We get take out here a lot. They have GF flat bread, some salads, hummus, etc.
The staff is very knowledgeable. The owners wife has celiac disease. Therefore all of their staff is knowledgeable about celiac disease. They have all of their items listed on a separate GF menu. They offer GF buns and they have a dedicated GF fryer.
So disappointed after all the good reviews to get sick from a “Gluten free” burger.
Their salads and wings are really good! Their fryer is dedicated gluten free too.
We have eaten at this restaurant a couple times since moving to town. During Covid they have had a temporary menu...the menu states most meals can be made GF but specific meals are not marked on the temp menu. The wait staff is knowledgeable about what is GF and if they aren't sure about an item there is no hesitation to ask the chef or management.
BONUS!! They serve complimentary Tator Tots when you arrive and the Tator Tots cN be prepared GF with a dedicated fryer.
I’ve eaten here many times and every time have been fine afterwards
Very good
They have a separate fryer for tater tots and wings, so they are all GF!!
Tater tots, wings, salads and burgers can all be made GF! Also could get a wrap on a GF bun!! The tater tots and wings are both a MUST! The GF cheesecake is also so delicious!
The owner’s wife has Celiac! I would recommend asking for the manager to explain GF options - she was super helpful and accommodating for us!
I have severe celiac and I feel confident every time I eat here. I’ve eaten often and never had a problem; but I’m also always very clear ab the seriousness.
Great gluten free tots and fries! However the last time I was there I ordered a burger on a gluten free bun and they brought it out with a regular bun. The kitchen staff even said “gluten free burger” when they brought it to the table. I sent it back and a new one was made. I believe the kitchen staff needs additional training on what gluten free is as I have also ordered a salad and received with a piece of bread on it. So double check your food.
dedicated fryer for tater tots. gluten-free burger buns. can eat with confidence
DO NOT EAT AT THIS RESTAURANT IF YOU ARE A CELIAC!!! Supposedly this restaurant regards themselves as "gluten-free friendly". WRONG! I am a celiac. Not just gluten intolerant or following some gluten free fad diet, but a full blown celiac. This facility has proven to be extremely uneducated as to health/allergen risks. Both my son & myself ordered a grilled chicken salad from their gluten free options. The salads came out with a slice of garlic bread laying on the salad. When I noticed the bread, I politely explained to the waitress that they were ordered as gluten free due to celiacs and we couldn't eat them because of the contact. She said "no problem, I am very sorry we will remake those right Within four minutes flat (yes I had glanced at my phone when she walked away with the salads) she returned with two "new" salads and set in front of us. My initial thought was "they cooked the chicken and prepared these that quick?" My second thought as I glanced down at the plate was "holy crap this is the same contaminated salad!" How Did I know? Well when the original salad was set down in front of me I did not immediately look down at it as I was in conversation with another member of my family. I instinctively picked up the salt shaker and began to salt my salad and then I looked down and noticed the bread. Point is, when she brought back this "new" salad first thing I noticed was the salt lying all over the top of the cucumber slices. I wiped my finger across the top of the cucumber to verify as the manager happened to approach our table. I, as you can imagine, was livid. How dare a restaurant put a patrons health at risk to save lettuce on lettuce? It may take me a short while after I eat to get sick but what would have happened to the customer with a shell fish or nut allergy that when they "removed" and re-served the same plate went into anaphylactic shock and potentially died? Very upsetting, the ignorance in regards to knowledge of celiacs. No one understands until you experience the wrenching of your guts for days afterwards or the embarrassing rash that consumes your skin, the vision that blurs so badly that you cannot see to drive. The migraine headache that is so severe you don't know whether to vomit or cry. Or any of the other 300 documented symptoms of celiacs disease. Knowledge about the disease begins by understanding that individuals with celiac disease face a 5-fold increased risk of developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Do us all a favor and don't label yourself something that you are not. Making money should not be worth making unsuspecting individuals sick.
Went to this restaurant to meet a friend from out of town...the menu choices were plentiful they even had my favorite gluten free beer and the staff was knowledgeable
if you want GF beer or cider and GF wings, this is the place. The wings at Liberty are fried, not breaded and prepared in a dedicated fryer, the best. The other big treat and pleasant surprise was soup, soup that was tomato based and richly flavorful. Two food choices hard to come by; a safe place to frequent. This has become my favorite hang out and my fall back when I don't know what to do for dinner. Steve, the owner is passionate about his business and pays attention. Carl is behind the bar and manager,you cannot find two nicer people. Staff are all knowledgable about GF and trustworthy. I love this place.
