My parents and I were getting furniture from Costco and they wanted to go Beer Barrel. I’ve never been before and I was willing to try this new restaurant. I had no idea what to expect, my parents have gone so many times that I was just honestly going along with the ride.
Food Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Rationale: I really enjoyed their wings. They were hot and juicy! The meat was so tender and was my favorite part of the meal. The fries were good too! They were steak fries and I thought they were good. They call them barrel fries and I would get them again as well.
Allergy Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Rationale: Our server was amazing! I asked what was dairy-free since I had never been before. She asked the manager and wrote down what the manager told her and relayed it back to me. I was really impressed. Every question we had she answered. I didn’t have an allergic reaction so that’s a plus.
The only thing I would improve on is they don’t have an allergen menu to rely on. She had to go to the back and it took a little longer to get our food because of it. I’ll be honest, allergen menus are the saving grace to that. Having an allergen menu in the restaurant or on their website would help the restaurant and them.
If you own Beer Barrel or another restaurant and are seeing this, I would love to write an allergen menu for you. You can email me at ben@bensallergyandrestaurantreviews.com or DM me at Instagram, I’m always active on IG and I will respond quickly. I want to help restaurants save time and help ensure that people with allergies are accommodated easier. That’s the purpose of my channel.
Other than not having an allergen menu anywhere, I really enjoyed their food and I would recommend eating at Beer Barrel. Clearly communicate your allergens and you shall be fine.
