would put this place in my will if i could. the food is just amazing, especially the chicken, bacon, caesar and parmesan sandwich made me weep with tears of happiness. every sort of sandwich (ciabatta’s and toasties included) can be made gluten free and the drinks are just lovely as well

Myself and family went for breakfast there yesterday and overall was a very nice breakfast, there was a few issues regarding cross contamination which was a concern for us. We did double check with staff who ensure everything would be done separately but watching staff in the kitchen making the food with no gloves and handling NON gluten free food then making the gluten free food wasn’t what they had assured us when asked, if you’re a celiac I would be careful when going incase this happens to you.

They do have a wide range of gluten free options as well as bakery options.

We had a lovely leisurely lunch today. No GF menu but anything on the lunch menu could be substituted for gf bread. Which was lovely. We had dessert and there were plenty of gf options. On top shelf to prevent cross contamination. Lovely friendly helpful staff. Although I would say only go if u have plenty of time. Service was a little on the slow side as it was very busy. Natalie

They were really good, we’re able to switch out any of the sandwiches to make them gluten free.

They can sub almost all sandwiches/paninis etc on their menu for GF bread and are also informed on all of their products containing allergens (sauces etc). They also have a cake selection, among which a few are GF. I like that they have the GF cakes up top so no gluten crumbs fall on the GF cakes. The only downside is that the GF cakes available are mainly the blondie/brownies but they have others available too!
