This was my first visit to Bad Daddy's. I have Celiac disease, so gluten free options are extremely important to me, and it's a real treat for me to have a proper burger-in-a-bun rather than a lettuce wrap, even if it is a GF bun (they tend to fall apart without gluten to hold them together; no fault of the restaurant). My burger was delicious; I'll definitely come back when I need a burger fix. However, my review is mixed because I found the ambience lacking - the music was loud and of what I considered to be an obnoxious selection (personal taste, I know, but hey, it's my review). Also my menu was dirty, which was a real turn-off. A few customer-focused tweaks and it could be a five-star experience for me, but currently it's not.

Very good burgers, with gluten free options both for buns and for sides. The medium rare beef burger just melts in your mouth, and the gluten free chicken tenders and tater tots are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.
The wait is also quick, we've been here twice and got our food within 10 minutes.
We ate our food before I could remember to take photos, so here's the clean plate club.
They also have a rewards club that offers free burgers and such, if you like app/rewards clubs.
10/10 recommend!!! The food was so good and the staff was exceptionally friendly! I have a gluten intolerance and they were so knowledgeable and accommodating!!
Hands down one of the best gluten free buns! Anytime I’m craving a burger, this is where we go. Most of the time when I ask for the gluten free bun they ask immediately if it’s an allergy before I can even say it. I’m celiac but saying it’s an allergy is usually easier. They do NOT have a dedicated fryer so stay away from the fries and tater tots unfortunately.
Gluten free fryer, gluten free buns or lettuce option. Variety of GF sauces and toppings. Knowledgeable staff and protocols - have always loved it here and so excited I can keep coming post Celiac diagnosis!
Ordered a gluten free bun and was served a whole wheat bun... I am severely allergic to wheat and had to run and use emergency medication due to the negligence. It will be a long time before I trust what I am served again.
GLUTEN FREE BUNS! (+$3 for GF bun) EXCELLENT BURGERS! I ordered a build your own with Swiss cheese, sautéed onions, sautéed mushrooms, and garlic mayo and smoked mayo as my two condiments. Everything is just bursting with flavor. I agree with another reviewer, you can taste the quality. Both mayos were delicious, but the garlic mayo stole the show. My family is convinced this is the best burger place in town and it has become our go-to for burgers.
Indoor and outdoor seating, or you can sit at the bar. We usually enjoy the outdoor seating.
Clean and crisp restaurant w delicious burgers, chicken fingers, chicken sandwiches, and French fries. Highly recommend - great for NCSU parents visiting their kids.
Employees are super friendly, super helpful, and they make delicious food.
Got the burger no bun to be gluten free gf. Small selection of drinks, limited parking.
