Udis, Udis, And More Udis

Three times we have eaten at an Udi's successfully. Twice at the location in Denver/Stapleton and once (tonight) at the Arvada location. I can't tell you how enjoyable this is. Delicious sandwich fare at Stapleton with fries!! Real french fries. I eat gluten and I ordered a gluten-free sammich just to see how it measures up. Honestly? I was worried that they messed up my daughter's sandwich (we ordered the same thing) because the bread was so tasty.

Tonight we went to Udis at the Arvada location. It's a lovely bistro-style place with pizza. No regular fries, just sweet potato fries, but an expansive gluten-free menu none-the-less. There are 4 (yes, I said 4) different types of gluten-free beer. One is Bard's Tale. There are two Green's varieties. The fourth is a micro-brew out of Boulder, CO that is gluten free. Plus, they have Strong Bow. There's a great patio that I have promised my daughter we'd go in the summer and sip on coffee and have warm cinnamon rolls. I can't wait!

Anyway--we're 3 for 3 at Udis with no glutening. They seem to really get it and the products are delish. Also, there's no add'l charge for gluten-free items, so that is a plus. The only down side is I think everything is slightly overpriced--about $9 for a sandwich entree, but the food is tasty and I think worth it.

If you are EVER in the Denver area, do yourself a favor and find an Udis.

This is so good to know! My daughter told me that Stapleton is just a stone's throw from where they live. Hopefully I'll be able to get to Denver this summer...but first I need to get to the point where I don't need to be three seconds away from a bathroom!!!

Do you have any other good recommendations for gluten free dining in Denver? How fortunate you are to live in a large city with so many options!

Sounds like a good vacation spot just for the food.

In the three years since my daughter's dx, there has been an explosion of options. There are several places we eat regularly including

Udi's (with several locations/variety to choose from)

Ling & Louies (real breaded and fried sweet and sour chicken that is gluten-free)

Noodles

Chili's (no longer on our faves list since they changed the bbq sauce)

Lone Star Steak House

Maggianos

There's more I just can't think of right now. I'd definitely say Denver is an increasingly gluten-free friendly city.

I forgot a couple:

Garlic Jim's (pizza in Highland's Ranch) and they DELIVER!

Beau Jos (locations around town)

Ahorsesoul - I've eaten my way through Denver before!!! tongue.gif

Thanks, buffetbride, I'll let me daughter know of the places you came up with. I'm sure there are a lot more that she hasn't tried yet...

I just tried a new place in Denver this weekend for gluten free crepes. They were delicious! We had two meal crepes and two desert crepes. Here is a link to their menu.

      @Joel K If the OP is ever in the hospital, and her celiac disease tests did come back positive and she does have celiac disease, she can just tell the doctors that she needs a gluten-free diet because she has celiac disease. They will listen to her, in all probability. And honestly, celiac disease is not taken very seriously inside hospitals, to say nothing of emergency departments, where in any case, the pt may not be able to verbalize anything, and the staff have to act right then.

      It is illogical not to disclose a positive celiac disease finding to your doctor, particularly if you're 60 years old. Human beings generally begin failing in one form or another from 60 onward and you might find yourself as an in-patient in a hospital or at an emergency room. Drugs often have minute amounts of gluten and hospital and nursing home food certainly contains gluten.  Here's another scenario: Your doctor sends you for annual labs and your WBC count and others come back out of range.  I frankly think one should leave politics out of the equation when it comes to your health. (Insurance isn't about your health, by the way) Or go ahead and don't let your doctor know.  Only one person will have to deal with the results of that decision.

      Thanks @Beverage for checking in!  I haven't changed the dogs' food yet.  I'm still working through some of the other issues that I need to remedy (transitioning to an anti-inflammatory diet, being sure to get only gluten-free certified items, and buying some new cookware for my kitchen).  Somewhere after that, I have on my list to try out the dogs on a new dog food, but I haven't gotten there yet.  In the meantime, though, I can definitely see that some of my worst days seem to follow when there's a possibility of gluten cross-contamination (I'm still working to cut waaay down on these instances) OR when I eat anything with dairy/ milk protein in it.  So I think I need to really get a better handle on my day-to-day eating habits to reduce all gluten cross-contamination into my food and also any dairy intake, and then at that point, I think I'll start moving over to the dog food thing.

      Sounds like fun, and I was in Germany a few years ago so you might find these articles helpful:

      I just want to mention that we summarize the latest research on refractory celiac disease here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/refractory-celiac-disease-collagenous-sprue/
