Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order ahead either online or over the phone?

Not yet. Since we opened our doors, we have been operating at very near max capacity all hours that we're open. We're very grateful for that! But we do have a limit to how much food we can put out of our kitchen. THE GOOD NEWS: Our average ticket time is about 15 minutes. Obviously, that varies with the level of business at any given moment, but we're generally pretty darn quick!

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

We do our best to accommodate a wide range of dietary needs—some are easier than others. Please let us know your specific restrictions when ordering, and we’ll walk you through the best options available.

Do you have dairy-free options?

Yes, we do offer some dairy-free options. That said, our biscuits and fried chicken contain butter and buttermilk. We’re continuing to expand our menu to better accommodate a variety of dietary needs.

Do you have gluten-free options?

Yes! We offer several gluten-free options, including sandwiches with GF buns, salads, and GF cookies/pastries. We also have a fried chicken option made with gluten-free flour. However, we use a significant amount of wheat flour in our kitchen and cannot guarantee that any items are safe for those with celiac disease.

Do you offer catering?

Not yet—but it’s something we’re actively working on. We hope to offer catering for events, meetings, and special occasions in the near future.

Do you take reservations?

Not at this time—we are currently walk-in only.

Is Gold Standard kid-friendly?

Absolutely! While we don’t have a dedicated kids’ menu, our chicken, sandwiches, biscuits, sides, and cookies offer plenty of options for kids.

What do you fry your chicken in?

Canola oil.

Where can we park?

We don’t have a dedicated parking lot, but there are several city and private parking options within a two-block radius.
