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!

Jo Munro

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.

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!

Jennifer Brennan

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.

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.

Andrea Artés de Arcos

Very nice food!! Super friendly staff too :) we will be back. They offer gluten free options.

luke waller

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

Phil Nicholson

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 :-)

Elizabeth Abrahams

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

Em

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.

Katie Johnson

Service and food was absolutely amazing!! Also loads of gluten free options and the coffee is delicious!

Josi Lengyel

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.

Nia Mh

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.

Erik Lučivjanský

Amazing “hot dog” also possible with gluten free baguette. Very tasty

Warwick Frame

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.

corinne macrae

Very well made chicken and avocado gluten free toastie. Delicious.

Carl J

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!

Azzah Albakri

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.

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.

Paula Phillips

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.

Grant James

The best gluten free bacon and egg roll I think I have ever had Great service Great coffee

Kaylee Snyman

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.

Adele Saretta

Always a pleasure and many lovely gluten free options

David Morgan

Good range at good prices. Some gluten free options.

Jay

Great quality mini cakes. Delicious gluten free macarons. Will def order again. 10/10

Suny J’Daka

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 :)

Olivia Charalambous

Gluten free options, veg options, great prices and everyone is always super accomodating. Love the food - tastes amazing!

Emma

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.

Kayla Webster

Friendly staff, amazing food, gluten free options.

Roxanne Viggiano

Oats are 💯 not Gluten Free and dangerous for coeliacs no matter how loudly you shout over the top of me oh ill informed and rude waitress of Mr Tulk. And your cafe has been reported to Melbourne City Council food safety department who informed me they issued you with an offense warning. And thanks(not) for leaving me to smear jam on my toast with my fingers for fear of getting lectured again if I asked for a knife and serviette. What an unpleasant experience.

tim painter

Amazing service! Thanks guys, gluten free bread was incredible ;)

Polly S

Fabulous food and service. Many gluten-free options.

andre darnaud

Good pizzas but the crust is special, especially the gluten-free one

OldNerdSteve

Delicious food, good service, and some good gluten free options. The Benedict was fantastic, as was the house-made chai latte.

Matthew Clark

Delicious food, great service. I came here with my pregnant and gluten-free wife, and the chef and wait staff went above and beyond to accommodate her. 10/10 would come back soon!

Gemma Jackson

Delicious food. Gluten free options. Amazing coffee. Great option for a quick lunch. ETA: just spent the long weekend in Melbourne and the coffee here was the best I had in Melbourne.

Gillian Bradley

My teenage daughter is both coeliac and autistic, making what she can eat and what she will eat, very tricky when eating out. Long story short, a nearby dedicated gluten free place could not accommodate a request for scrambled eggs instead of poached so we had to look elsewhere. Thankfully we found Eliana Lulu, where we were looked after beautifully, the staff were very gracious and kind, they understood the coeliac requirements and the food and coffee were great! I would not hesitate to go back here, the location is fab also! Thank you, what a great place and great team you have here.

Best hotel restaurant I have been to in memory. The staff are genuine and caring and the food is exactly what you hope for: served hot and clearly fresh ingredients with good flavour. I had a few meals here including dinner and breakfast and had to ask a couple of questions about my dietary requirements (gluten-free). The staff were authentic in checking with the kitchen for me and the kitchen made some very thoughtful changes to the dishes in response. Indian fried chicken and seasonal vegetables were hot and delicious. I don’t write a lot of reviews but I had a great experience here.

Martin Reuvekamp

Said their burgers were gluten free and they take good care keeping things separate. Then served me a burger with a normal bun! 😡

OldNerdSteve

Food was delicious, staff were excellent. Um coeliac and there were some gluten free options on the menu, and they were happy to answer my questions about which specials were gluten free. I had the lamb cutlets, which were fantastic.

Georgia Riccioni

Sbriga cafe is my go to when at the office. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The food is fresh and delicious and they are very accommodating to vegetarians and Gluten free. The chai- tea latte is one of the best I have ever had!
