Their online menu offers a few gluten-free options, but we were told there was nothing our Celiac child could eat safely. The chef was unwilling to make anything separately (baked or in a clean pan). So we had to leave.

It’s been a few years and I have to update my review. Risk of cross contamination is high and I’ve been glutened here before. There’s better options, especially for the prices.

Awesome service Madison! Dedicated frier…WHAT?!?! This made my day…bone-in wings (Traditional Buffalo sauce) with carrots, celery, ranch and blue cheese. Wings were delicious, hot out-of-the-frier, and absolutely the best. It is so difficult to find wings from a dedicated frier! Holidaily beer topped off my lunch and I enjoyed watching Iowa State Cyclones win. Plan to be back for more incredible wings, beer and service.

Hey…went back today (Wednesday) and was told…by a different person…that they have no dedicated friers. No wonder I was reacting! So incredibly disappointed…how difficult is it? Either it’s a dedicated frier or not. It’s not that difficult! Geez 🙄 🙄 🙄

This location is one of the only ones that will cater to my son’s celiac needs. You can get bone-in wings and fries/tots. You have to ask them to do the fries and tots in the wing fryer. The only thing they do in this fryer is the traditional wings. You need to be vocal but my son has never gotten sick here. Julia (bar side) is amazing and will go back and talk to the kitchen staff personally to vocalize needs. This is the only BWW we feel safe eating at.

Caution: Waitress was not knowledgable about gluten free menu. I asked if there was a GF menu and she said there wasn't really one (there is online) and that the only things GF are the tortilla chips, wings and fries. She said there is a dedicated fryer but in the end, I got the wrong wings which resulted in me eating gluten. She really didn't seem all that concerned or like she cared.

The only wings that are GF are the TRADITIONAL wings (not even the cauliflower wings). They are in a separate fryer. The fries also have a GF fryer.

Be cautious going here.

There is no dedicated fryer. They will bake the traditional wings to ensure there’s no cross contamination but this takes much longer than frying them so be prepared for the wait.

SHARED FRYER. There are no dedicated fryers at BWW restaurants, therefore EVERY FRIED ITEM is contaminated with gluten. You can get a bunless burger (no GF buns) without fries or a salad- that's it. This is NOT the place to eat if you're celiac.

This place is not safe…. I was confident I would be ok because they handed me an allergy book to look through and told me how the new sauces were not gluten free due to thickening with wheat. So after taking to the waitress I was comfortable…. I wound sick in the middle of eating and feel it was cross contamination. The Buffalo Wild Wings near my house in PA have dedicated fryers and I made the mistake of assuming they did as well…. It’s clear they do not and don’t disclose that detail.

We went in today as a large group, 8 people, all GF as 6 of us have celiac disease. They have separate fryers for GF wings and a separate fryer for GF potato items . They have sauces that are GF and even keep them away from the other items. I extremely sensitive and so I ate very slow to see if I was going to get sick . Usually with in 30 mins I know if I got contaminated. It’s been 2 hours and I feel great! They staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. Definitely will go anytime we are in town !

The manager was very helpful. He brought me an allergen based menu and even explained that he could make sure items marked as “may contain” for wheat could be cooked separately for me so they would not. We were sitting near the kitchen and after we ordered I heard him in the kitchen verbally telling cooks how to keep my meal separate and to change gloves.

Although I typically order wings (salt and vinegar, honey bbq) I wanted to venture out and ordered the chopped salad with pulled chicken. I spoke with the waitress and confirmed it was safe. My daughter who is also celiac and myself started to eat the salad and after a few bites and further inspection I realized they had taken fried chicken and shredded it into the salad. I immediately stopped eating it and let the waitress know who removed it from our bill. We left and I was completely defeated. Although we didn’t have any reactions I won’t feel safe eating here again.

We had a good Gf experience here. They brought me their allergen board because nothing was labeled GF on the menu. There wasn’t a whole lot available but I was able to get “naked chicken fingers” and fries. They did have a separate frier for they fries and they clearly label your meal as GF when preparing and they were very accommodating and seemed to take it seriously. I didn’t have any negative reactions after either

It’s permanently closed now

While they don’t have a gluten-free menu, their website lists every ingredient they use and possible allergens. If you tell them you have a gluten allergy/intolerance the manager will come to your table to discuss exactly what your options are and what they can do for you (my wife, who has celiac, told them what she wanted and they made it happen even though it was completely off menu). Then the manager has to make the gluten free dish themselves in a dedicated area to ensure there is no cross-contamination. Now the downside: some items, like the tots and fries, are listed as non-gluten items, but they do use a shared fryer so be cautious.

They have a description of what food processes they have in place. Fries are said to not be at all in contact with gluten, but they were. I tested with my portable gluten detector and it found slight cross contamination, enough to make me sick. I wish they’d take dedicated friers more seriously, because it would’ve otherwise been a great place to snack while hanging out with friends.

I did my research before coming and it said I could get a grilled chicken but being here I asked if they could clean the grill and they said no. They also do not have a dedicated dryer for the fries. I ended up getting just a salad with dressing and it was not good. I wouldn't recommend coming here if you have celiac or a gf

The hostess went out of her way to help us. (My son has celiac.) She handed us a printed copy of the allergy menu and explained the cooking process. Fries are in a dedicated fryer but cross contamination is always possible. So she offered to bake my sons fries to avoid cross contamination. She suggested he order the naked tenders and assured us they would be cooked on a freshly cleaned area of the grill. She went into the kitchen alerted the staff and our waitress to ensure they were extra cautious. When ordering we inquired about their sauces, the waitress brought the printed allergy menu to us so we could decide which sauces would be safest. When we were leaving the hostess and waitress checked with us oonce again to make sure everything was OK.

What a pleasant surprise!!! This place has a dedicated gluten-free fryer!!! This means I could get their traditional chicken wings with a side of fries. YUM! They also labelled my plates with a purple GF sticker.

When I originally looked up where I was traveling to this restaurant came up so I automatically just went there. Well I regretted my decision later.

When asked about GF options the waitress happily went and got a old binder with only the nutrition facts in it dispute being labeled “allergens and nutritional facts” 🚩

Then when I found what should’ve been in that binder online it said “may contain” next to the traditional wings. When I asked the waitress she said they are GF we just have to legally say “may contain” but we use a dedicated fryer for those. 🚩

I should’ve just left and gone elsewhere at that point but I didn’t.

There was no special markers on my food dispite me telling her about my gluten allergy and someone from the back dropped off the food in a rush. 🚩

Well sure enough I pretty much had an immediate reaction.

The wings always make my stomach hurt and I’m not sure why, but I always stick to the Dirty Dub Tots. They’re so good and I asked them to bake them in the oven because they don’t have a dedicated fryer. I haven’t gotten sick and they’re delicious!

Traditional Wings are great!

UPDATE: The fryer is dedicated only if they aren’t busy. So not really separate lmao.

This Bdubs has a separate fryer for gf! Only the traditional wings. Ask for your sauce on the side so your wings don’t get mixed in the same bowl as the others. The bartender did have to ask the manager some questions but I appreciated the effort and my food was as good as bdubs gets haha

When I asked for a gluten free menu the manager on duty gave me a printed copy of the complete nutrition guide and explained how to read it and what it means. He was also careful to tell me that there are no dedicated fryers or kitchen, which I appreciate as a company that understands what people's needs are. There are options for gluten sensitive items, there are a few different types of nacho plates, and traditional wings are not made with gluten ingredients. There are more items and the nutrition guide with all the info is on line I got nachos with no meat as I wasn't very hungry, but I'm still working on eating all the leftover chips 2 days later, it was a large portion. The queso was delish. While there isn't a separate fryer etc, I feel it is safe because the staff is aware.
