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.
