Amazing food and catered for my coeliac daughter with loads of GF options. Very accomodating and she had a sign at her place so all the staff knew she was GF.
I always try to make my way here to get some gluten free pancakes when I'm in Melbourne. Today I was looked after by Deb, who although was busy working hard, she was friendly and efficient. I'm grateful for getting my food and drink in good time and that the toilets were very clean!!!!
I was walking past and the staff assured me they could do gluten and dairy-free. Then pointed out the suitable options on the menu. I had the Paella, they confirmed it would be safe for me and it was delicious.
Really lovely Indonesian restaurant. The staff here are so friendly, they were very patient and accommodating to all customers. The staff were knowledgeable about coeliac disease, so I felt safe eating here. Plenty of gluten free options! The food was delicious! Clean and a good atmosphere. Recommend!

The food was amazing, I had seen a few posts online and they did not disappoint. Im gluten and dairy free and they were able to accommodate me with no problems and even recommended which bagel to try. Yum.
Highly recommended as this restaurant is in a beautiful area, staff are friendly and efficient, food is delicious and atmosphere is chilled.
We had the Sweet Potato poached eggs on gluten-free toast with avacado and red chillie scrambled eggs with coffee's. It was delicious, and coffee was amazing.
We were lucky with our timing and got a table straight away. However, within 5 mins, there were huge queues for the restaurant. So it's advisable to book if you can. I would still strongly advise: it's worth the wait as we had a wonderful experience.
Thank you so much to the staff and restaurant.
This cafe is a hidden gem! With an impressive selection of Gluten Free (GF) and Vegan Options (VGO), it caters to a wide range of dietary needs. The charming setting offers both indoor and outdoor seating, perfect for any occasion. The Padre coffee is exceptional, and the breakfast and lunch menu is solid, featuring a delightful array of bagels, including GF options. The American-style menu is a treat, and we were thrilled with the delicious brisket and asparagus. Plus, the staff was accommodating, allowing us to customise our sides to perfection. Highly recommend!
I treated my sister who is gluten free to the Summer Sips high tea. We were very impressed with the attentive service that we experienced. The staff had excellent attention to detail, they made sure we had a wonderful afternoon.
The cocktails were well balanced with the food selection.
The biggest highlight was the GF selection, the savory pastry was delicious!
The best chocolate cake…ever!!! I ordered the chocolate decadence cake for a work celebration and every single person said the cake was delicious. I told them afterwards that it was gluten free…it was amazing!!! 😊
The people were also lovely and helpful. The only negative aspect is that it was a tad pricey…but I guess that you get what you pay for.
Excellent spot especially for food allergies. Wife and I had an great 3 course meal that cater for low fodmap and celiac diets. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about our requirements and there recommendations of baked brie and the risotto were spot on! The low fodmap wagyu burger was one of the best I have eaten. This meal was the highlight of our stay in the city. Will definitely be back and will bring more people :-)
Omg best smashed avo and eggs on gluten free toast I’ve had in melbourne - my partner’s steak sandwich was also amazing. The coffee is delicious and the service prompt, polite and efficient - we loved again store thanks for a great dining experience
Awesome place. Food was amazing especially for the lower price tags. Really good service and atmosphere even under the pump they delivered. Good options for gluten free too. No soggy toast which has been a problem at other places. Definitely recommend
i love this place with my whole heart! so cute and wholesome and cozy and the food is amazing! the guy who runs it is so adorable and i can't wait to keep going back. they also have gluten free buns! lit!
Plenty of gluten free coeliac options. The service was brilliant - they made sure that my food was prepared safely. The quality of the food was excellent! The best smoked salmon I’ve had in Australia! It’s ashame the same can’t be said about the matcha - quite grainy and the quality was disappointing.
We enjoyed the set menu dining experience and enjoyed every mouthful. We were greeted with a tasty cocktail and then the food came out soon after. I have a gluten and dairy intolerance and was catered for very well. Staff were efficient and friendly. Nice place for a romantic/ quiet meal away from the hustle & bustle of busy Melbourne.
Beautiful food, great vibes, friendly staff. Reasonably pricing for size & quality of meals.
This was mid November, so Christmas decorations around the fed square area.
My gluten free pals were very happy with their meals.
Lots of seagulls around pecking at people's food scraps when they left.... Whilst amusing for us, glad it wasn't to our own food.
Coffee and food is great. The service is outstanding. Lots of gluten free options, the gf bread is delicious and the chef's home made jam is to die for.
Loved the vibe of this cafe! Buzzing and mostly corporate clientele during the week.
Very thick fluffy gluten free bread which is always a good surprise! Lovely presentation of the scrambled eggs which were creamy and big portion. Good selection of pastries and amazing breakfast menu.
They do a pretty good matcha. Not the best I’ve had but still good.
Would absolutely come back on a weekend where I have more time to sit back and enjoy.
Delicious brunch, and coeliac friendly. They aren't a dedicated gluten free space, but they do have separate toasters and make every effort to offer a safe space to eat. Highly recommended.
We managed to get a table outside and were promptly attended to by wait staff. The menu is diverse with delicious options and cater for vegetarians and gluten intolerances.
All meals arrived in a timely manner and each was delectable with alterations made as requested (no mayo on burger, gf bread for teriyaki mushrooms and added fried egg). Burgers looked so good there was an appetite of food envy! Would come back esp to try those.
The best gluten free bread I have ever had! I got the white sourdough and the sourdough with olives. I didn’t have any of the desserts or the coffee, but they looked divine. It is just a small little place, more for takeout than dining in.
This place truly captures a Parisian vibe—if only the Eiffel Tower were closer! The savory gluten-free crepes are absolutely amazing, and the eggs benedict was an excellent choice. The coffee was rich in flavor and perfectly textured. Starting the day with great coffee is always fantastic. Thank you!
The food was above and beyond our expectations. We were a big group of adults and kids. The kindness of Joseph made us dine in and try the yummy dishes. If I could give more than five stars for Joseph service I absolutely would. The gluten-free options were yummy.
The staff were so helpful and lovely. The food absolutely beautiful, we totally enjoyed it all. The catering for gluten free options was wonderful the little bread roll so moist and delicious.
I visited this spot because I used to enjoy coffee with friends at Block Place. Unfortunately, there was a long hiatus due to COVID and the closure of many businesses.
I'm thrilled that those times are behind us and Block Place is bustling once more! This charming little lane in the city offers a variety of eateries and cafes to explore.
Vespa Rossa has maintained the same inviting atmosphere and decor from the previous owner. The space feels open and welcoming, with friendly staff and comforting food.
The menu is straightforward and includes a few gluten-free options, making it perfect for a casual lunch or a laid-back gathering with friends.
I tried the mashed avocado toast (I know, so cliché), and it was fresh and delightful. The coffee was equally satisfying, rich in aroma. I also indulged in the tiramisu at the end of my meal. To be honest, the tiramisu was a bit too firm and slightly bitter due to the choice of a darker coffee, but it was beautifully presented and still quite tasty.
I highly recommend checking this place out! Its close proximity to the shopping area makes it an ideal spot to catch up with friends or enjoy a cozy afternoon.
It goes to show that there is a reason why the Grossi restaurants are still alive and kicking after all this time. From the start to finish the experience was spot on. Our server was extremely knowledgeable, I required gluten and nut free which was not a problem. The GF pasta was house made tagliatelle! The portion sizes were great as of course was the quality of the food. I can highly recommend!
Really nice cafe, would definitely recommend! Big range of options including vegan and gluten free. The staff were knowledgeable about being celiac safe and have a gluten free toast option which was great.
Fantastic experience. Food was great, came out exactly when we wanted it to and was delicious. The 600g Ribeye was cooked to perfection, lots of flavour and plated well. The staff were extremely attentive always making sure our water was filled without ever having been asked or looking for them. Really comfortable seating and not packed together. Cocktails were great, staff were knowledgeable about variations of classics and proactive in giving me a choice.
The only thing I think could be improved is that I really wish they would have a dedicated gluten free fryer so I could have tried the baby kipfler potatoes which my other guest thoroughly enjoyed. But I understand limited space in the kitchen might make this implausible, and I still really appreciate the NOMAD groups consideration of allergens when devising your menu and training of staff who knew exactly what I meant when said celiac.
If you have celiac disease I would recommend coming here again and again.
Got vegan and gluten free Ortolano panini. Incredible taste! It could’ve been a little bigger as I was still hungry after finishing it. Glad I didn’t get charged extra for vegan cheese :)
Good simple burger. Well cooked - not dry or dripping in fat. Not over loaded like a lot of burger joints where it’s difficult to eat.
Good gluten free options.
Chips are excellent.
Great buffet breakfast options, including many gluten free options - even a dedicated gluten free toaster just for the gluten free bread, and gluten free cereal options! As a coeliac, it was great to have so many options. Only suggestion would be to make the allergen markings more consistent - while the baked beans were marked GF (as you’d expect), the scrambled eggs and jams/spreads were not marked GF, which was confusing. However, would totally visit again - great buffet breakfast experience.
