Being Gf it's hard to find things you can eat along with eveyone else! Here you can eat eveything... however I am not use to so much friend food that my stomach hurt later that night. It was a bit pricey and it was an odd way the combos came and the plates. But I get trying to cut costs. Service was decent. read more

Love love love love this place! My kids are glute sensitive and can be picky eaters. They loved the food. They had a cheeseburger and chicken strips. They came out tasting amazing . I had the olive burger and it felt nostalgic. I highly recommend this restaurant. The place is super clean. The service was very friendly. The prices were great! Go anywhere else for gluten free food and it's going to be super expensive. My meal with my children was very affordable for gluten free food!! Thank you Papa Chops!! read more

Such an unsuspecting spot. The place is relative open where the tables are not crowded, but I opted to sit outside at the picnic table. The staff is friendly and helpful with suggestions as I often debate over a special vs something always on the menu. Either way I had it in my head that I wanted a wrap and decided on the grilled chicken Caesar wrap with the recommended onion rings. Everything was so good, especially those onion rings with the sauce. Might be one of the best onion rings. The breading was crispy and flavorful. Unbelievable that it's a gluten free spot. I will definitely stop in again. read more

A few months ago I asked for french fries without the spices on them and fried chicken, when I got to the car they were both way overcooked. I was so hungry I thought at best I would get kickback on get my money back and the cook had to have seen it was all overcooked and did it deliberately so I just tossed it all and swore to never go there again. read more

Friendly and clean. Portion sizes were ridiculous. Got an antipasto salad and med pop for almost 19$ amd it was the size of a side salad and mainly lettuce. Never again. read more

Celiac Foodie: Wow! Great restaurant! Owner is Celiac and has created a great 'safe' dining experience for Celiacs! I ordered the Chicken Sandwich, breaded and so crispy! Seasoned perfect and crunchy! Speaking of crunchy- ONION RINGS are so delicious, perfect amount of coating with a Spicy Dipping Sauce. I haven't had Onion Rings in years and these are very good. Also tried the Mac and cheese with Pulled BBQ Pork on top- so good, just enough cheese and so creamy. Must try! The noodles are cooked perfectly and tasted really good. Run here- gotta try it! New business, hours fluctuate slightly due to staffing so check that out before you stop in the evening. Seating is Cafe Style. Food is bagged to go. Paper plates, condiments and silverware provided if you want to dine in. No illness after consuming food. Happy Dining! read more

Super extensive menu of 100% gluten free food! Really glad to find this while in town for work.

Food is delicious and service is friendly every time!! It's great having a gluten free restaurant in our community!

Hello Lovelies. Got another review for you. My friend recommended me this place because we both have a gluten- free allergy. Papa Chops, is the place to try so many foods that we gluten free people can't have. For example I haven't had fish and chips in a long time. Guess what? They have it. Haven't had a good wrap? They have it. Check out their menu it is amazing. The fish and chips dipping sauce and tartar sauce was dairy free too. The service? So great, very homey and friendly as well as their ambiance. It's like a warm meal without the worries of allergies! And even if you don't have food restrictions the flavor is so good either way. So come on over to Papa Chops and enjoys (P.S. I did forget to take a picture because I was so excited to try the food. Oh well, guess I'll have to come back next time to take more pictures for you guys.) read more

Finally tried this place today as my wife has celiac and she's been asking to go. Had the mozzarella sticks and while they are really good, the marinara sauce felt like It was missing some flavor, maybe salt. The sticks were better w the ranch. Had the Nashville hot chicken and I liked it a-lot, just wished the chicken was a little thicker. Some spots were super thin. My wife had the Cuban and it was good but as she said it felt like a play on a Cuban. She said she missed the panini press of the Cuban as opposed to it being just on a hamburger bun. My son had the kids chicken tenders and fries which he really liked. We also enjoyed the fries. For the three of us it was $70 so a tad expensive, but we will definitely be back. read more

This place is a gluten free human's dream. I highly respect the owner for being involved in his business, proving great info and chatting with his customers. The crispy chicken bbq sandwich was the bomb dot com. And the mac and cheese topped with bread crumbs and pulled pork was also a favorite. I crave it allll the time and unfortunately I'm not local so can't eat it daily I am a fried food snob and although I appreciate pickles and moz sticks that are GF, they weren't my favorite. That being said, I'd probably still order the pickles again just so I can have some friend pickles again in this lifetime. Love this business, food and the way the owner is involved! Awesome and willll most certainly return read more

How awesome to have a sport that offers exclusively gluten free food!! My mom has celiacs so she was so excited to try this place and that she could eat anything on the menu that she wanted! When you walk in, you order at the counter and then get your fountain drink, before seating yourself in the seating area to the left. There were both tables and booths available. I liked that there was lots of space for my toddler to comfortably run around while we waited for our food. I would consider this a family friendly restaurant due to the crayons & coloring pages available, space for all the kids to run around in the dining area, changing table available in the bathroom, and 2 high chairs available as well. Food is brought to your table in a brown paper bag, and you can grab paper plates and silverware from the counter if you desire. There were also picnic tables available outside. Only downside is the dining area was fairly warm with no airflow, but other than that, we had a great experience! read more

My wife was looking forward to this place as she has gluten issues. Overall we were not impressed. Very expensive for what you get. Bluegill order serves only a few small pieces. Chicken sandwiches were both tough and stringy. Not good at all. One plus though was the onion rings as those were really good. Unfortunately this place is definitely not worth the cost. I'd possibly have gone 1 star if the onion rings weren't good. read more

Came here for the onion rings and they were overcooked. Not bad for a fast food establishment.

We went here because everything is GF, I'm not but my nephew is. The employees were amazing and friendly. The Mac & cheese was the best thing I tried and definitely worth it (couldn't even tell it was GF). I tried a few things and I'd eat it all again. Definitely a cool little spot. Would definitely go back again! read more

As someone with severe gluten intolerance it is always a treat to be able to order anything I want off the menu. It is a nice casual atmosphere with lots of yummy options. The greeter made sure to ask about any other allergies or food needs when I ordered. This was my second time here. The onion rings are delicious, and I got the homemade ranch dip. I also ordered the breaded chicken sandwich. It was good, but next time I will definitely ask for them to add lettuce. From my previous trip, the poutine is great. The fish sandwich was just okay. My teenage son loved his burger and fries and said they didn't even taste gluten free. It is on the pricey side, but worth it to have a treat and not worry about getting sick. Bonus mention for the clean all-gender bathroom. read more

I ordered one of their chicken wraps, fries, and a cookie from their fridge. With a 15% tip that came to $23.33, a bit spendy for a quick meal. But honestly it wasn't that quick. i didn't have a stopwatch going, but it just seemed to take a while. Also the handoff was weird. Instead of giving me a number and delivering the food, they called out my name, but I was already seated--I don't know, just seemed strange. I will say, the food itself was very tasty, especially the fries. read more

Checked it out with my wife a couple of weeks ago. Nice and bright atmosphere. Talked to the cook who is older and given a job there. Had a Blue Gill Sandwich with fries. My wife ate Nashville Chicken Sandwich. It is pricy but will be back. read more

Oh my GLUTEN-FREE-GOODNESS! I absolutely love when I find a hole-in-the-wall place that also is so conscientious of those with food allergies. When I say that this place takes it seriously - I mean it! The eatery is designed as an à la carte ordering experience and take-out, but the staff will happily cater to you eating in at one of the cute picnic tables. The way they package the finished food is similar to In-and-Out Burgers! It's a delight for the eyes! The burgers are SOOOO juicy and scrumptious. The gluten-free bread is UNREAL and the texture is just like having gluten buns! The fries which complement the burgers are slightly sweet, spiced and umami. The tastes are delicious and remind you of a summer family picnic, without any allergies- I absolutely love it. They also sell locally-sourced gluten-free sweet desserts! I love to see local businesses supporting each other. I saw a few brands- Kind Crumbs, Bliss Bakery to name a few. Wonderful choices and delicious ways to to finish the meal, too! Will definitely return with my hubbu, who is also gluten-free. read more

Wow what a great find for those of us with gluten allergies! They have such a large list of items that sre gluten free that I never dreamed I would eat again. There were sandwhiches, burgers, wraps, salads and so much more! We tried thr chicken tenders, onion rings, salad, and a wrap. All of the items were delicious and beyond great for being gluten free! The onion rings were unreal! Unfortunately I did do delivery with uber and they forgot our drink and sauces but atheist we got the food. Can't wait to try this plCe out again! Plus it was crazy overpriced for being gluten free. read more

What a fantastic place for families with members that are gluten intolerant. We love that we can all get great food that works for everyone . Great friendly folks that work there as well . Not the easiest location but worth the 28th street hassle! read more

Came here to pick up food for my family - all of which were very excited to eat gluten free foods that we normally have to skip! If you have anyone in your friends or family that has celiac disease, this is the place to bring them that is safe for their health! When placing an order for pick up, not all of the choices were available online and when I called to inquire about this, the owner said that they said that the food items were available but they preferred the order be phoned in as they didn't the food to get cold/soggy. A bit confusing but nevertheless it works. We tried the fish, chicken, and schnitzel sandwiches! Forgot to say no mayo dressing/didn't realize that was on the chicken sandwiches, but overall though everything was tasty and the buns were delicious as well! Much much better than eating store bought frozen gluten free buns! My husband who is not gluten free said his fried chicken sandwich was good/fine - I didn't expect him to rave over gluten free food when he gets to eat your wheat/glutenous fried chicken sandwiches :) but he agreed that the bun was much better than usual GF buns! Hours when we went were very unconventional - Now it looks like they've expanded which should help more people experience their great food! Prices are typical for gluten free things. Inside is small and outside seating is nice- not sure how that will play out when it's very cold in Michigan, but take out is a good option. We will be back! read more

I ordered food at the counter for me, my husband and 10-year old daughter. When the food was ready, we were missing one of the 3 main courses and one side. They were very gracious to prepare the missing items. After another 15 minute wait, I received the exact same items. At that point, hands in the air about the missing items. I'd had enough and was tired after a long days' work. We just moved to the area, but have no plans to return. read more

I am from the Kalamazoo area and was in GR today for an appt for my son. I was googling gluten free places to eat and came across Papa Chops. For someone like me that is severely gluten intolerant this place was a god send. I have been glutened SO many times by places that claimed they would take every precaution but they didn't. I had the chicken strips and fries and it was very yummy. I will be taking a drive back up there very soon to eat again. Thank you for creating a safe space for us to eat!! read more

The reviews speak for themselves! This place is every Celiac persons dream. It's rare to find a place 100% dedicated to your well-being especially with a gluten allergy. I've visited multiple times while we were in Michigan for the summer. Their mozzarella sticks 10/10! Their fries were just right. Please try the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich. If it was reasonable and logically to shopped it to Boston so that i can still enjoy this sandwich i would. The burgers are another one too good. I had their Caesar salad and the croutons were better than any gluten free croutons I've tried - they also add shallots that I thought was a nice touch. They have tons of seating available both indoors and outdoors. read more

This is an excellent new place to check out if you're gluten-free or have food allergies. My son is allergic to dairy, peanuts, and eggs and they were wonderful about letting me know specifically what he could have. My husband got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and onion rings - I snagged an onion ring and they were very good! He liked them better than his sandwich, which he said was fine but not amazing. My older son got the chicken stix which I sampled and really liked. I got the mozzarella sticks which were ok and the strawberry poppyseed salad which was delicious! My younger son got a grilled cheese with vegan cheese and it actually was melty which can be rare with vegan cheeses! Overall, pleasant service, good food, laid-back vibe. read more

My wife was recently diagnosed with Celiac. We found Papa Chops pretty soon after and so far everything we have tried has been amazing! The bluegill fish and chips are some of the best I've ever had, GF or not. The fries are killer. My only complaint is that they don't have breakfast! read more

We headed up from Battle Creek for our 23 year old daughters birthday (celiac). Called earlier in the day to see if any GF bakeries nearby we could pick her up a dessert. Aaron was very helpful. When we got there Aaron was running register and was so helpful and welcoming. We ordered onion rings, mozzarella sticks and fried pickles as appetizers while we figured out what we wanted to eat. They were all fantastic! Especially the onion rings, our daughter was in heaven as it's been about a year and a half since she's been diagnosed and had any. Between the five of us for dinner we ordered Nashville Hot, chicken strips, boss hog, fries and more mozzarella sticks. Everything was amazing- would never guess gf if didn't know it. Aaron even gave her some Whoopie Pies as birthday dessert since it was closing time and would be closed the next few days. Great food, warm & welcoming owner & staff. We will definitely be back and I've already told other GF friends about it for when they visit GR! read more

Loved the food! Knowing that everything I order is gluten free take the anxiety out of ordering.

I'm in absolute awe.. as a human that has to eat 100% gluten free, having a celiac safe restaurant in the city is incredible. The food was SO. GOOD. Crispy, the breading didn't fall off, the bun didn't fall apart. Papa Chops is doing it right! Do yourself a favor and get the mozzarella sticks with a side of ranch. Y U M looking forward to making this a regular spot. read more
