I got a burger and chips (pictured below) the lady who served me was so lovely, she explained they have a separate prep area for coeliacs and a separate fryer for the chips / separate grill for GF buns. Highly recommend!

There was none of the GFO for the burgers as stated in the other reviews. The only thing in a seperate fryer was the chips which were very average when I asked about the battered fish which I was offered they told me it was not in fact done separately and was put in with the fryer with all the non gluten free fried goods. What I was served was a tough and revolting grilled piece of fish with a sad scattering of 10 chips. For $25 this was a complete rip off.

Yes, there were strict measures taken to prevent cross contamination. Service was great. They were accomdating to cater for specific requests. We had the battered fish and chips with salad and cake for dessert. They sang happy birthday for my mom's 77th birthday and lit a candle. Lovely staff.

Told the staff I was celiac and they said they cater to it with a dedicated fryer for the chips and grilled fish. Not on the online menu however staff were really friendly and helpful. I had the grilled barramundi and had no trace amounts - plus the fish was cooked beautifully! Will definitely be returning!
