Visited today after reading the reviews online, the restaurant is spotless, placed our order with the staff who was very knowledgeable about gluten-free, menu plenty of choice , fish and chips, peas gravy and curry, yes I know all gluten free, we was even shown the label of curry and gravy as we were surprised, also they do sausages and homemade onion rings and homemade chicken nuggets ( propper chicken breast) food is being cooked in a separate section of the kitchen totally loved this, even watched the chef washing hands multiple times during food process, The food arrived fairly quickly considering the restaurant was quite busy with many takeaway and also delivery, back to the food, absolutely gorgeous food, piping hot and really superb flavour, fish was flaky and batter was really crispy and really different not a basic cheap gluten free you could gel from taste, service was superb from start to finish, this is one place to go to when visiting southport, it’s in the town centre so very easy to be found 5min from train station and buses right outside , overall 11 out of 10, definitely our place to come to when visiting southport, well done to the owner and good team , need one of this in London too, see you next time

Ate here with my daughter (11) who has coeliac. Great menu choice for gf options served everyday. Separate fryer, bought out separate to all the other meals to reduce cross contamination, gf vinegar and able to purchase gf ketchup. Really helpful and friendly staff. Also dog friendly. Offers take out and eat in. She really enjoyed her food and kept asking to return. We also all enjoyed ours.

The friendliest staff and so clued up about allergies. They had a completely separate frier and cough yet so wrap up for gluten free. I will definitely be visiting again

Went here for gluten free fish and chips. Lovely and helpful staff! I am gluten and dairy intolerant and they showed me the ingredients list of the batter and the separate fryer they cook in. I had gluten free haddock and chips and it was really tasty! They also gave us a couple of free gluten free onion rings to try while we waited and they had gluten free vinegar. My husband had the normal cod and chips which he enjoyed too. Felt safe there and food and service was great! Would definitely visit again if in the area.

Visit in July, went there as I found it on celiac Web page. three types of fish, scampi, chicken, onion rings and battere sausage, on separate area of the menu. they had cheesecake and brownies for dessert. I had cod and chips, cooked very well with a superb crisp batter. wife said it tasted better than hers which was the normal. eat inside in a very clean covid safe restaurant with an intended 70s interior, service very good. compares very well with both Whitby restaurants, Bentley at Blackpool and One in morecambe. they charge extre for gluten free but well worth it.
