Wonderful experience at their high tea. The chef prepared a fully gluten free high tea for me which came out on a seperate stand away. Kitchen knew about coeliac requirements and were able to adjust most of the nibbles to suit e.g had the blue cheese mousse in a shot glass instead of a pastry case. Lovely experience all round.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff asked if anyone had any dietary requirements when we called to book a table. Server was knowledgeable about coeliac disease and talked me through the menu. Almost everything on the menu (we were there for the pre theatre dining session) was gluten free by ingredient, or could be easily made so by omitting one item. Also found plenty to eat at breakfast (individual fruit salads, yoghurt cups, smoothies etc).

Celiac friendly?

Yes
