Fantastic location majority of the menu is available gluten free, two different types of gluten free beer. We had fish and chips which were fantastic and teriyaki chicken poke bowl which was delicious! They paid extremely close attention to the gluten free requirements and staff was very knowledgeable!
Found this place through this app after reading good reviews. safe to say it lived up to expectations as basically everything on the menu could be done gluten free. It was the first time i have had proper fish and chips vince being diagnosed a coeliac and i couldn’t fault it. really lovely friendly people who couldn’t do enough for you. 100% recommend this place 😍
This place is great for GF food along with other food allergies. Most of their menu is GF. We loved their Halloumi cheese with Chilli jam. My son ordered a steak and it was cooked perfectly. I was excited to have a GF brownie and ice cream. I would definitely eat there again. They have a Seperate fryer for GF also!!
Had a really lovely burger in a gluten free bun, with chips. The servers were very helpful and knowledgable, and they have a dedicated G/F preparation area. Acton’s was so good, we went back for their £10 lunch special another day. My wife had the sea bass (not G/F) and it was great too.
I was amazed when I asked what on the children's menu was gluten free, and the response was everything but the pizza! I had to double check as I didn't believe it! One thing I will just warn you on - it sounded like everything on the menu actually was gluten free for everyone so I almost forgot to specify gluten free when we ordered (to a different waiter) but they do use different bread etc so make sure you say!
We visited Acton and sons after reading reviews here and although I live over 3 hours away it is safe to say we'll be back.
My son is coeliac and I am recently gluten free myself so 2 out of 3 of our group requesting gluten free food.
As mentioned below, instead of being told what we could have we were told what we couldn't have, that in itself is amazing. The choice was huge. The kids menu was great too. I ordered a dish that contained an ingredient considered to be gluten free but was informed that it may contain incase I had an allergy..... that in itself is incredible.
The food was delicious. We had 3 quite different dishes and all were lovely, we also had 3 different deserts which were delicious. The food alone makes this place worth the visit.... the experience to go along with it.... well, hands down the best restaurant we've been to.
The servers were so welcoming, friendly and attentive. We felt safe eating there. The level of understanding for gluten free food is incredible. The information provided regarding kitchen prep areas etc wasn't even asked for but was provided.
I say we'll be back as this is the first experience of its kind that we have had anywhere in Ireland. I commend the staff for making this such an incredible and enjoyable experience.
Ate here during lent so I couldn’t have meat (I’m catholic) and they had both lots of gluten free options and lots of plant-based options.
I had a delicious poke bowl with vegetables. The vegetables came out and were covered in a kind of batter, which I immediately flagged, but the waitress assured me that they purposefully use GF batter to make sure it’s safe. It was so tasty!
Definitely worth a try the next time you find yourself in Belfast.
Really safe. Staff were very well informed and knew off the bat about separate fryers (yes), cooking surfaces and utensils (yes), and what modifications might need to be made to a dish (eg no breadcrumbs). I was able to get the three course set menu like everyone else with minimal extra fuss.
Unlike some other reviewers I didn’t receive a gluten free menu; the server said they had recently pulled it and I’m not sure why, as all the items and precautions were still available.
Great for a family outing, would definitely recommend.
I have visited this restaurant twice the first time I had the Acton burger with all the trimmings and on my second visit I went for the battered haddock with chunky chips, both times the food was lovely. This is a relaxing restaurant with great staff who r also knowledgeable when it comes to people on a gluten free diet. They also use a separate fryer when cooking the gluten free food
This is a great place with warm, friendly staff and many gluten free options clearly indicated on the menu. They informed me that they use separate fryer for the gluten free menu items!! Actual gluten free fish and chips!! Glute. free salmon and even a gluten free bread basket! All this in a nice atmosphere in a part of the city that is great to explore.
