Good selection of GF options, have GF buns as well. But, I’m sure they gave me a regular bun rather than GF when I did a take-out order based upon being glutened from this meal. Would not go back.

This restaurant is within walking distance and I have never had any trouble with the food. As I am allergic to corn, which is in the gluten free bun, I can not eat it, so can not comment on that. I never order fries when I am out, as the type of oil, is a concern. However, the chicken is a real chicken breast and a side of “weeds” ie. salad, is always my choice. The staff does respond to my questions and so far knows their products.

We've eaten at this location several times and always had a good experience. Servers are attentive to multiple dietary requirements. Note - this location does not have a dedicated fryer.

Watch out! Their separate fryer is not so separate on weekends when they get busy! The hostess told me that the 2 separate fryers are used when they are packed on weekends to accommodate their large number of customers. They are not thinking about cross contamination or your health! You need to ask, what's the point of having two separate fryers when they are not really separated???

All burger patties are gluten free and offer a gluten free bun. Menu online lists what is gluten free vs. not. Most burger toppings are gluten free too. No dedicated fryer, so most GF friendly side options are vegetables.

BEST FRIES IN NEWMARKET. They have a great lunch deal, $15 for a burger, side and pop. The burger was 4oz I believe, but it was the right size for a filling lunch. Their fries are bottomless, and I could not get enough of them. Crispy and salty, but still very potatoey. Our waitress let us know they’re fried in a dedicated fryer, and are cut in house. Their gluten free bun wasn’t my favourite, and fell apart a little, but $1.50 up charge wasn’t the best. They serve the pop in measuring cups, which was neat, and very fizzy. I highly recommend stopping by. The onion rings are very crispy, an extra $4 and not gluten free, but you can hear a very audible crunch.
