Gluten-Free at Cold Beers & Cheeseburgers

The GF menu is actually “gluten friendly” They claim they have dedicated fryers in the back, which they might but I get sick every time I go here. The first time I had tater tots and a burger in a lettuce wrap and the second time I got wings they also put that in the fryers so beware of the fried food here I’m not sure if their fryer is actually dedicated or if it’s near where they mix flour batter or what but I got sick.

When I eat here I always make my own burger. There is a piece of paper that you can select options on. There is an option for GF bun. Use your common sense for toppings. Obviously avoid the onion ring. Fries are fried in a dedicated frier. Feel pretty safe here and not a bad burger for a restaurant. Taste 8/10. Value 6/10.

There are gluten free fryers! They have amazing fries and a wide selection of gluten free options. They have a menu that is considered gluten sensitive but provides the least amount of cross-contamination. Enjoy your food cause it is delicious!

They no longer have a dedicated fryer. GF buns. Not really sure if this place is safe. Also, it’s a sports bar so there are a million TVs in your face.

No dedicated fryer now as of Feb ‘24. Not sure if fryer is broken or this is permanent ? I got glutened badly, and I’m not super sensitive. I would call before risking it.

Sports bar. They have a gluten free menu. They serve burgers and sandwiches “protein style”, fries, wings, and nachos. The food here is good!

This is a great location. The GF menu is full of options. They DO HAVE separate fryer for the chips, fries, and tots. The buns are fair but the burgers are so good, you forget the bun is falling apart while you are eating! Pretty safe for us…never had an issue there. Not sure about the previous reviewer’s comment about pre-frying everything. I spoke to the manager and he had never heard of that practice. My fries were definitely fresh at dinner time.

It was a gray experience. I went there for my birthday and had a Juicy Lucy with a gluten free bun. The had an entirely separate menu for me and a separate fryer for gluten free. Overall it was a great experience and I enjoyed it very much. This is a place I want to go back to.

I haven't been contributing a lot of reviews lately, but this visit to CB&C deserves MAJOR props, thanks to my server, Krystan, and the manager, Alysha! We have visited this location many times in the past, and loved getting the buffalo chicken tot-chos and buffalo wings. I noticed, this time, that the gluten-friendly menu had changed, and no longer listed the items with buffalo sauce. There were still plenty of options, but I figured I would ask why they were removed. Krystan happily checked with the kitchen, and found out that the buffalo sauce is now being made in-house and has gluten in it. I was glad to find out the reason and was preparing to order something else, when the manager, Alysha, came over to talk with us. Not only was she willing to figure out why the new sauce contains gluten, but she also offered us some frank's red hot sauce and butter to make our own sauce with. She stopped back several times during our visit, even though the place was quite busy, and made sure everything was safe to eat and that we were happy. I have NEVER received this level and care of service in the 10 years since being diagnosed with celiac disease, and I can't say enough how much I appreciated their kind service. Please check this place out, and ask for Alysha and Krystan if they're available! They'll take great care of you!

It was busy, ordered from the Gf menu which was nice.

Chicken drum sticks as an appy and then all American burger with egg on gf bun and fries from a dedicated fryer.

As the buyer came out tummy was already in trouble from chicken wings. Tried the burger and bun fell apart. Needed fork and knife, and man was it salty. My evening was full of gf issues. Not going back.

The burgers are okay. The buns are sometimes good but often stale. In recent months they have changed to frying the gf chips/fries in the am and just bagging them up to serve later in the day and use the fryer for gluten items the rest of the day. We aren’t likely to go back with this new change.

Cold Beers and Cheeseburgers restaurant checked all my boxes off today!

✅ Dedicated fryer at Higley/Queen Creek location ✅ Clean pan ✅ Clean utensils ✅ Server knew what Celiac Disease was and went back to the chef to let them know ✅ Marked Gluten Allergy on receipt 🧾

Now, what did I get? 😋 All American 🇺🇸 Burger 🍔 protein style (they do have GF buns) with a side salad 🥗. I didn’t want to ask about the dressings (I also don’t do dairy or soy so I asked for olive oil and lemon slices to make my own dressing!)

Overall, I’m impressed with the safety and would definitely go again.😁

It was good, but not great, and definitely not worth the price. Service was good and no issues with my GF burger and fries. It was also very loud - typical sports bar.

So nice to have a yummy burger and tots and not get sick! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Updating my review since we have visited this location several times, and each time is a great experience. Every team member is so knowledgeable about GF options. They have dedicated GF menus, fryers and prep stations. My son and I have not gotten sick. Highly recommend for a GF outing! Watch a game and enjoy!

I ordered from the gluten free menu, and also alerted the waitress of my allergy. I had been there many times before and had never had an issue. However, I had a horrible reaction shortly after eating there. I am not sure what had gluten in it, but clearly they gave me something that was not gluten free.

It was good the burgers were huge. The tater tots were extremely greasy though and I wasn’t sure if I was feeing sort of iffy from cross contamination or the tots but all in all the food was mediocre and not really my type of restaurant. For someone who’s just gluten free as a lifestyle choice it’s probably fine, but for celiacs there’s definitely better and safer options available in Scottsdale.

Not safe for celiacs but they do offer gluten free items. No dedicated fryer as previous reviews stated. I called before going and they were very honest about not having a dedicated fryer and although they are “gluten friendly” they cannot guarantee cross contamination.

Celiac friendly?

No

Amazing cheeseburger. They have gluten free buns and a dedicated fryer. They said they would change their gloves and all of that. Didn’t get sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The gluten free buns are not the best. After one bite my burger fell apart in a crumbled soggy mess. Either they didn’t toast it or the bread was dried out. (Gf bread sometimes needs to be toasted to make it good) If you are a restaurant with a gluten free menu get the bread right. It’s everything. Service was good though.
