HUGE gluten free menu and absolutely delicious. I had the steak sandwich which was so yummy and smooth. The service was incredible and the view is great if you enjoy people watching. Definitely recommend for a nice lunch in the city centre.

I love going to The Lounges because of their huge gluten free menu. Ive been to a few and this did not disappoint. The food was great, a wide variety of gluten free options with a dedicated menu. The cocktails are always great and it's a nice cosy atmosphere. The staff are always friendly too.

Great choice of gluten free food, served by friendly helpful staff.

danielle fitzgerald

Gluten free, dog friendly, vegan options, beautiful meat dishes, fantastic decor and atmosphere. What more could you want? Honestly a hidden gem. Even gluten free beer. We had 9 tapas dishes, every one was divine. Best meal I've had in ages. I can only imagine what it's like to eat here in the summer. Me and my partners new favourite place. Perfect 👌

Shaun Hughes

The food was amazing. The resturant was clean, a lovely atmosphere and caters for gluten free. The staff were lovely and professional, thank you to Aron for suggesting what I could eat due to a gluten allergy. I definitely recommend this resturant

Iwan Jones

Love the gluten free cake options. Great independent business in the centre of town.

Vicki Rowe

Food was lovely, and staff were very friendly and accommodating. Decent gluten free menu too!

Lindsey Dyson

We had brunch & the food was amazing. I had a veggie breakfast and every item was hot & delicious. Same for the avo and eggs roll. The gluten free options were a stand out too, able to swap items to allow them to be served gf. I added beans to the breakfast to make it more of a 'full English' as an extra but for the price would expect these to be included. That's my only constructive feedback really as was an amazing breakfast for both dishes.

Absolutely fantastic experience at Bill's in Cardiff Bay. We turned up without a reservation and despite the place being quite busy, we were seated promptly and drinks orders taken quickly. I'm Coeliac which means boring gluten free dining, but in Bill's there is a whole gf menu so I didn't feel left out. I had the Fish Pie and Banoffee Sundae, both of which were different from usual gf options. They also did a gf IPA which I wasn't very keen on but nice to have the option. We were served by Gabriel. He's an absolute treasure. If you're gf, you should deffo give the place a try!

Nicola Lowther

Great food. Fab gluten free options and didn't feel like I was missing out on any options. Friendly service. Will definitely be back.

Ate here for the first time today (Saturday 22nd Feb 2025) the restaurant was clean, staff were very helpful and the Gluten Free Menu was very good. Recommend

Maddison was so lovely and very helpful with my gluten sensitivity throughout our meal, thank you! We had a great time

We ate there last Wednesday - the food was very nice and the service was very good. Mario and the kitchen team paid attention to my colleague's complex allergies and made a meal that was adapted for her. There are lots of chain restaurants in the Bay, but we came here because when I was phoning around to see who could take a group of 12 and handle one person's allergies respectfully without making her look demanding in front of new colleagues, Mario answered the phone and demonstrated what professional customer service should look like. He knew immediately what Cote's team would be able to do and didn't over-promise but gave me confidence that my colleague would not be left hungrily watching people eat and would not be made to feel bad for having allergies. I had been unpleasantly surprised that other restaurants did not respond as kindly as Mario. My colleague said Cote are usually pretty good, including a good gluten free menu. The food was well presented and well seasoned and the other staff were attentive too. Bottled water was a bit pricey. The restaurant was easily accessible for my colleague who cannot use stairs as it is quite well spaced out and flat.

The burgers are just delish!! I’m gluten intolerant and my girlfriend takes on board eating gluten free meals too when we’re out (so we can share). I absolutely love trying the food that i haven’t seen anywhere else. The gluten free korean fried chicken burger. IS A MUST TRY. the iced lattes are just another level. I really love hudo lounge and the staff… THE STAFF. are just incredible, they’re not too in your face, it’s very much we’ll let you actually enjoy your food.

Had a lovely lunchtime meal. As always they handled my gluten-free diet perfectly and my other half’s vegan diet. The staff were very friendly especially Dean who served us expertly. Thank you for a great meal.

James Hugglestone

Absolutely fantastic service from Jorja, friendly and helpful. As a celiac it's always awkward eating out, but our order was taken with no problems. The menu was straight forward and easy to navigate. Would definitely recommend to anyone with allergies.

Constance Smith

Jordan Richards

Love this place. I'm a coeliac and feel really comfortable eating here. The food is always really tasty as well.

Hayley Brailey

Nice chain restaurant. Staff were friendly and considering it was an event night and they were packed, they were attentive. Impressed with their allergy process, the manager took my order, they were all aware and they informed and helped me rather than gave me a massive book to look through. Super impressed they had vegan and gluten free fajitas, which were yummy. Very nice Pina Colada too. Over all a thumbs up for allergy awareness, food options, atmosphere and service. The only improvement would be to have vegan sour cream

ANGELA LANDRY

Lyn was very helpful and lovely. She was very attentive. We all had the bottomless tapas and the selection was good and food delicious. They are very knowledgeable about Gluten Free and don’t make you feel awkward ordering for a special diet. Highly recommend this restaurant for food and drinks.

I’ve loved Fabulous Welshcakes for years. We always pick some up when we’re in Cardiff bay and Cardiff city centre. I love the variety but you can’t beat a traditional Welsh Cake. As soon as we started wedding planning we knew we wanted them for our wedding favours, it wasn’t even a question. There’s a huge range of flavour to choose from and they cater for allergies too! We had one celiac guest and another guest that was celiac and dairy intolerant.. they catered for both! I can’t thank you enough. We purposely ordered extra to enjoy ourselves after the day too. Thank you so much. We had a great experience throughout, from booking to collecting.

Christalla Bailey

My husband and I eat here regularly. I prefer gluten and dairy free food and there’s a good selection of choices on the menu. Staff are brilliant, always welcoming and attentive. Food portions are generous and we love the regular offers making it very affordable. Can’t fault Prezzo in Cardiff.

Mike Jones

Beautifully cooked food and also catered without fuss for both mine and my sons gluten intolerance from a seperate, clearly labelled menu.

Colleen Turner

Samira A-M

Fantastic food and service every time. Great for those with gluten and dairy allergies/intolerances. The buddha salad and turmeric latte are 10/10.

J Charalambous

Vegan, vegetarian and gluten free menu. Food and coffee best small cafe in Cardiff!

Dwayne Robertson

Michael Carlson

Recently stayed at a Marriott hotel in Cardiff which was very pleasant but the breakfast experience was excellent. I am coeliac and asked Paula to help me with gluten free options. She was amazing and talked me through all the options and made sure I had everything I needed. She did it in a friendly way making me completely confident in what I was ordering. She went the extra mile. Paula is a real asset. Thank you Paula.

Tania Anderson

Birthday celebrations having afternoon tea together, gluten free not a problem and delicious. Way better than the afternoon tea we had at the Ivy.

Minerva “Min” White [she\they]

Great food, welcoming service, huge variety for limited diets!! When planning a trip to Cardiff my partner and I were looking for somewhere for lunch that could easily cater for her dairy and gluten free diet. This came up as one of the options so we took a chance on it. This turned out to be a good move as this has rapidly become a destination place for us (even if the rest of Cardiff is jammed up due to the rugby! 😅) All dietary options are clearly marked on the menu and new dishes have recently become available adding to the choices. There is even a vegan lassi option, which is superb!

Lilly Fox

beautiful restaurant lovely interior!! And ok service. However as a someone with celiac disease I was incredibly disappointed with the options for food - which weren’t just greens. I was so exited as they advertise for gluten free being really good, however the options were extremely limited… when phoning up they said they can make the chips gluten free however, the waiter told me they weren’t and they don’t change the frier, so it would be cross contamination. I think it was off putting as someone who can get extremely poorly with having gluten it didn’t seem as though they knew what to do with the information of being gluten free. We were also charged for water which we didn’t ask for originally: - I would just say if your gluten free you can only eat the salad of the 2 course menu which is £19.85. - we also did get charged £70 pound for a meal that was meant to be £48. Although the food for gluten free wasn’t great. All in all the restaurant itself was beautiful and such a lovely atmosphere- and there were some really helpful waiters who took pride in helping customers. But a beautiful building and very photographic

Lunchtime today we were a party of 14 celebrating 3 70th birthdays. Kacie, our waitress was very patient and understanding, taking extra care with the gluten free meal. She was very pleasant, friendly and patient with such a large group. The restaurant was quiet so we stayed at the table for well over the 2 hour slot allocated. At the end of the meal a special dessert with a candle was served. There was no mention of 70th birthdays when I booked so Kacie must have realised when we sang Happy birthday. Thank you Kacie - highly recommend your waitressing skills

Lucy Sebburn

Amazing food, great hospitality and an all round lovely Greek experience. Will definitely be returning. Catered to mums gluten free really well, knew exactly what to do.

michelle vaudin

Jacob was very helpful as I specified I was gluten intolerant and was very helpful food was lovely service is great

Jane Doe

Used to be a really good selection for gluten free but I haven't been here for a while. It's much more limited and now only 2 options available. Big shame. Service was very slow even though it was very quiet. The person before us left because he'd Waited so long even though he'd paid. I ordered fries which took half an hour to come out and were cold. Won't be returning.

Claudia Mastropierro

This place used to be a literal heaven for gluten free people. I went last week and the menu has changed. The only "gluten sensitive" options are on the Vegan menu, and it's all very confusing! Our choices are limited to the Sundaes and the Waffle. No sauces for the waffle are marked as GF (or GS) so I had a very sad crumbly waffle with just ice cream on top! Definitely not going again!

Lovely vibe here, with plenty of staff: busy but not overcrowded. Sunday lunch is superb. Anna, our waitress, was so engaging and genuinely interested in her job. Gluten free options were clearly explained and every effort had been made to adapt items by changing coatings rather than just 'leaving things out'. Fishcakes were tasty with mild curry sauce. The lamb roast was perfect size and cooked to perfection (rare lamb, just as it should be). Divine roast potatoes... Lemon posset dessert was tangy with British strawberries. This is a top notch restaurant in a trendy location, fabulous friendly service and very moderate prices. Will def. be back.

Nini Aravindan

Went here as a big group for dinner and Chu gave us the best service ever! He was so attentive with drinks and food making sure everything was alright which probably isn’t easy for a group of 15+. Rhi the manager was also fantastic as we had allergies on the table and she was incredible in making sure we weren’t left out. Highly recommend and great for gluten free!

Jose Gilley

Jane Jones

The experience was nice, however the gluten free version was not gluten free, as a Ceolic this makes us very ill. Would not recommend.

We went here because the online menu has clearly labelled vegan options, which were replicated on the printed menu we were given, once seated. However, when I started to discuss which dishes were vegan with our server, he said they offer vegetarian, but not vegan food. I pointed out their key at the front of the menu that indicated veggie/vegan/gluten free options. He said he'd worked there for 3 years and nobody had ever asked for vegan food. After going to check with a chef, he returned to inform us the chef could make vegetarian dishes but couldn't guarantee that any would be vegan, despite what the menu said. We thanked him for his honesty and left without ordering. I fully support any restaurant's right to not provide dishes to suit specialist requirements but it bothers me that the menu offers apparently false reassurances of dietary options that aren't reflected by the serving staff nor the chefs.
