B.effect Brewing Co. - Wanaka

Menu was marked gf and she double checked that everything was celiac safe. Had loaded chips with no issues.

If you’re after a cold drink in the sun this is a great bar with a great atmosphere on a sunny day. However if you are after a meal I would eat elsewhere. For drinks there is Cider, alcoholic ginger beer and other mixed drinks available. Their cider is very nice. If you don’t trust the taps they can pour from a can into a glass for you. Wouldn’t recommend it for eating however, as others have said they have a low knowledge of coeliacs which is a shame.

Staff went through the motions of talking about GF. Didn’t seem to take it seriously. Separate fryer but I still had Gluten symptoms after eating their chips.

Messaged them prior to going for dinner about gluten free options and was meant with a prompt response. They offer GF batter on their fish but this is cooked in the same fryer as other menu items. There is a dedicated GF fryer for chips.
