Eats and Treats – BJ’s Brewhouse


Eats and Treats – BJ’s Brewhouse

It would be hard for me to find a fault with this restaurant!  WE LOVED IT!  The service, the food, the drinks, the atmosphere….. all incredible.

I have celiac disease which means that anything with gluten, including wheat, barely, rye, etc., will make me sick to me stomach.  Anywhere we go, finding food that I can eat (that isn’t just a salad) can be a challenge.  If you have these same issues, BJ’s is a great place to go. 

They have a dedicated gluten free (gf) menu with a complete list of gf beverages including  gf beer and two flavored ciders, pear cider and blueberry cider.  The staff is incredibly knowledgeable about their food and beverages and even offered us suggestions of how to improve our meal with no charge.

this is actually a 50/50 mix of the two ciders, berry and pear.  They both are light, but the berry was too sweet for my taste.   Mixing the two balanced out the flavors.  It was like a wine spritzer.


Our server, Ashley, was fantastic. Ashely told us that she had worked at BJ’s near Indianapolis since the restaurant opened four years ago and that she enjoyed working there because of the consistent management.  She suggested we try different beverages and offered free tastings of beers and ciders so we would order something we liked.   We were so happy to have a waitress that took her time with each table, trying to explain the menu and what the restaurant had to offer.

Before dinner, Chad took advantage of the beer tasting offered at the brewhouse. 
He stated that all of the beers were of high quality, not to mention delicious.  If you have the opportunity to try these beers, along with their ciders, we would suggest taking advantage of it!



To finish our evening at BJ’s  indulged in the gluten-free chocolate chip pizookie (a hot out of the oven, rich and delicious, gluten-free chocolate chip cookie topped with two scoops of vanilla bean ice cream and served in its own deep dish).  One of the best desserts either of us has had in a long time.  Simply delicious!  Enough to split between two people, unless you are having it for your meal.    




What a great experience!
