Honestly, walking into The Explorium Brewpub Third Ward feels like finding the holy grail for celiacs who miss that classic brewpub experience. With one of the owners living with celiac and leading the charge on safety, you can practically taste the peace of mind—every fryer is dedicated gluten-free, and nearly every menu item (hello, cheese curds and fish fry!) is safe for our crowd. Their commitment to gluten-removed beer (and even lab testing to verify it) is a rare find, especially in a setting where you can finally raise a pint without second-guessing. Sure, communication with staff is still key—double-check those croutons!—but if you’ve ever longed for fried comfort food and real beer in a lively, welcoming spot, this place truly delivers.

Central Standard Crafthouse & Kitchen isn’t a dedicated gluten-free facility, but you’d never guess it from the way they look after gluten-free guests. Their menu is peppered with clearly marked GF options—think legendary cheese curds (yes, really!), fries, and sandwiches—all backed by a dedicated gluten-free fryer. Staff are generally knowledgeable, ready to answer questions and walk you through safe choices, and they’ll flag allergies with the kitchen if you let them know. It’s not 100% risk-free, but for Milwaukee celiacs dreaming of safe fried cheese curds and a lively, welcoming spot to eat with friends, this place feels like a little win; just remember to communicate your needs each time and double-check those tricky items like soy sauce or marinades.

Central Standard Crafthouse & Kitchen is a rare Milwaukee gem for celiacs craving that classic Midwestern comfort—with a twist. Their menu boasts a dedicated gluten-free fryer, and nearly every indulgence, from the legendary cheese curds to fish fry, can be made safe for those of us who need to dodge gluten like it’s our job. Staff are well-versed in cross-contact protocols and will flag allergies, but it’s not a dedicated facility—so you’ll need to clearly communicate your needs and confirm details with your server. For those who dream of sharing fried cheese curds with friends (and not just salad), this spot delivers both flavor and peace of mind—though as always, there’s a touch of risk, so ultra-sensitive celiacs should remain vigilant.
