Top 12 Gluten-Free Sandwich Spots to Enjoy in Grand Rapids

Title: A Gluten-Free Haven with Room for Improvement Rating: 3/5 stars As someone with celiac disease, it's a rare treat to dine at a completely gluten-free restaurant like Papa Chops. I was thrilled to finally eat out with my family, especially on Mother's Day weekend. The food selection was great, and I ordered a variety of dishes, including fish and chips, burgers, and a pork sandwich. The food itself was good, but the service fell short of expectations. When I went inside to ask for lemon and tartar sauce with my fish and chips, the cashier was surprisingly rude and snippy. She even checked my receipt to see if I had paid for the food, which made me feel uncomfortable, especially in front of my kids. There was also a miscommunication about ranch dressing, which added to the frustration. Despite the good food, the service issues left a sour taste. With a bit more attention to customer service, Papa Chops could truly shine as a gluten-free destination. For now, I'd recommend it for the food, but with the caveat to be prepared for potential service inconsistencies. Price: $80 (before tip) Would I go back? Maybe. I'd like to give them another chance to show me better service.

Awesome food and selections. Very filling. Most sandwiches can be made gluten free and they note if it's an allergy! Quality and filling gluten free options.

First visit here was several years ago on an overnight stay for a concert. Today I had to go back because that time was so good. Today I went and sat at the bar for brunch the staff (all 4 I encountered) were friendly and helpful answering questions and making suggestions that made my visit amazing. I went for this avocado toast gluten free with added egg and coffee, followed up with a citrus drink they mixed for me (not cocktail) that was the perfect refresher after the delicious meal. 10/10 recommend going here when in Grand Rapids, it is a super adorable yet smaller space so try to go outside the typical meal times or be patient and willing to wait. It’s worth it in my opinion.

My spouse and I went out for dinner on Friday night and were pleasantly surprised with how amazing our meal was. He has a gluten intolerance, and there were so many items on the menu for him to enjoy. I loved the mushroom strogonoff, and our drinks were delicious.

The coffee was good however the service was a little lacking. They did have gluten-free bagels that the wife had she said it was okay.

Everyone is super nice! Establishment is clean and organized. They really care about gluten allergies and keeping customers safe! As soon as I said I was ordering for my girlfriend who has celiacs disease (gluten allergy) they immediately took their gloves off and put on a new pair and communicated to one another about needing to make her sub in their designated gluten free prep zone. Really appreciate the attention detail! Keep it up! We'll be back. Thanks!

I'm happy they have a Gluten Free menu but they still got multiple things wrong on our order and didn't correct it very quickly so we could eat the rest of our meal warm. Unfortunate.

Great good and even better service. My wife has celiac and they went above and beyond to clean the area and avoid contamination at all costs. She said her sandwich was delicious and no allergic reaction after so their attention to detail paid off! Thank you to the staff and we will be getting another round of subs tonight!
