Four of us dined here having declared my coeliac disease and gluten free diet. Whilst I would recommend this restaurant for a standard or vegetarian/vegan diet, I would say Coeliacs & those requiring a gluten free diet BEWARE! The venue has no separate preparation zone for GF, no separate fryers & I'm convinced they served my salmon starter deep fried & did not tell me of the error....but simply asked me 'are you alright?' when I had eaten half of it. (I had thought they were asking the whole table as the server was over my shoulder). When another member of the party pointed out that the question was addressed to me, I then looked carefully at the salmon & noted that every area of every flesh surface was equally fried/browned rather than what I'd have expected of the shallow fried salmon (in separate oil) that I was assured would be prepared for me.

Meal portions were massive and mouthwatering when laid in front of me.

The restaurant don't sell alcohol but do allow customers to bring their own bottles and provided the glasses for us. The early bird menu is Monday to Wednesday and on Thursdays and Sundays there is a special menu. We found booking was easy and restaurant provided a high chair for my one year old grandson who ordered...
