This was awesome. Great fries and GF burger bun was very decent. Small cheval is located under the score board in center field. A little tricky to find for us.

Non-celiac review: the gf chicken tenders were good. The staff was really overwhelmed, so I wouldn’t recommend going when it’s super busy if you have severe gf needs.

Great chicken sandwich! I also enjoyed the French fries with aioli. Great service even before a sold out show at Wrigley.

Fantastic! Came here on a Cub’s game day and it wasn’t packed and service was quick. They can make anything on their menu gluten free (see attached menu screenshot below). I had the chicken tenders (4 pieces $7.99) and what a delight they were! Crispy fried and juicy. Fries were also good. They have a dedicated fryer and my plate was marked GF when it came out. Bathrooms are very nice and clean. I would definitely come back!

Dedicated fryers. Buns are the same ones used at culvers (not sure what brand that is) even though extremely busy, staff made sure everything stayed safe, and asked many questions to ensure that. Very impressed!

Wasn’t too sure this would be okay given how busy it was (post Cubs game) but everything came out labeled as gluten free and we all felt fine! Made our kid’s day to order a burger and fries (I thought fries were passable, he declared them “the best”)

Food was really good, but a little greasy. Only complaint!

All of their fried items are gluten free. when I told the waitress I was celiac, she made note of it just because of the bread they have for the burgers. My burger came wrapped separately so there was no contact, as well did the fried chicken. The bun on my burger was super soft and didn’t crumble at all, almost was like regular bread tbh.

Overall felt super safe here!

Food was delicious, restaurant is really cute and just a couple minutes from Wrigley Field. I was nervous going at a busier time but I had no problems with CC. Ordered chicken tenders and fries. Food was marked GF and waiter was understanding of celiac and really great!

I had a wonderful experience here! I got the chicken tenders and fries, both made in a dedicated fryer. Not only was it safe but incredibly delicious! I am very strict about cross contamination and have very sensitive reactions, so I was happy to not get glutened here. I will be back for sure!

Came here for the first time and was assured right away the only things fried in the fryer are gluten free. The burger was so good but I recommend dipping it in a sauce for sure. My favorite by far was the fried chicken sandwich it was so delicious, even my non celiac boyfriend said it was one of the best he’s had in a while:)

Small Cheval hit the spot!! GF chicken tenders & fries in separate fryer. So delicious.

Located right outside of Wrigley field off W Waveland so great to grab some food before a game!

Toured Wrigley Field today and then wanted to have a bite to eat. After reading other reviews here and speaking to one of the bartenders, I decided to give it a try. I am SO glad I did! I had chicken fingers for the first time in YEARS and they were delicious! Along with fries and garlic aoli. It was a great meal with reasonable prices right there outside of Wrigley Field at Clark and Waveland. And I feel fine! No ill effects what so ever!

The best gluten free buns I have ever had AND they now have gluten free FRIEND CHICKEN!! You can get tenders or it on a sandwich! The fries are unbelievable as well. And most importantly… DEDICATED FRYERS so it’s actually gluten free šŸ˜ GF comes out with an allergy sticker, the staff is always so responsive, and I was told that they wipe down the grill, change gloves, and have specific tools to avoid cross-contamination. The woman was so excited to tell me all this and was so proud of how seriously they take it which made me feel so safe. It’s all soooo good!

NEW GLUTEN FREE FRIED CHICKEN!!! šŸ— This location now offers fried chicken tenders and chicken sandwiches (with a subbed GF bun) in a DEDICATED FRYER! They specify that the chicken does not contain any gluten and I called to confirm the fryer only has fries and the fried chicken for tenders and for chicken sandwiches which is all gluten free! I tried the tenders and they were still crispy even after being delivered. I’ve also had a burger with a GF bun and fries here and at their wicker park location with no issues. You can choose gluten allergy when ordering through door dash. *Tip- be careful not to sub the GF bun twice on DoorDash, only under “gluten allergy” or else it will up charge you twice. / unfortunately the fried chicken is not dairy free if you have to be mindful of that.

Great smash style burger and safe fries! You order on your through a QR code at this location but you can ask to order through a server to let them know about severe allergies. The wrap burgers in foil and note the gf one. Buns are pretty good too. Never gotten sick here!

Came on a friday night but no one was there except for us, mostly just a carry out location when there isn’t a cubs game. you order on your phone but the server said she would manually take my order if i wanted. said yes they have GF bun and no gluten in the fryers. our food came out and i opened my unmarked burger and it looked the same as everyone else’s, plus it had the toppings i didn’t ask for šŸš©. i brought it to the server and she immediately apologized and said they would remake it. she brought back a burger which this time had an allergy sticker on it and was what i had ordered. the food was good and it’s always so nice to have classic food like this so close to home but for $27 for a burger, fries and a sprite i won’t be coming back super regularly.
