Their entire menu is gluten-free except for breaded items. The calamari is also gluten-free because it's breaded with chickpea flour. Excellent service from the front-of-house staff.
amazing service they did really well for my dad who is gluten free they offer gluten free beer pasta and pizza and i really enjoyed my crepe and the ice cream was gorgeous i’d highly suggest coming here when you’re on holiday or live in the town
Came for breakfast on a quiet morning in June. Oh my goodness, so so so good. The kind of good where I immediately went home and looked up everything I had to see if I could make it. My only wish was that the gluten free bread was the Arabic bread mentioned in the menu rather than chopped corn tortillas, but still very nice to have gluten free options.
Dear restaurant, what is the kind of bean and vegetable salad in the breakfast and how do I make it? I'm still thinking about it, so healthy and fresh and filling!
Four people had dinner, and everything was incredible.
The Nefertiti salad, the pizza, and the raw vegan lasagna were all great gluten-free options with no cross-contamination issues. My companions also tried the burritos, which came with potatoes, and they were excellent in both quantity and flavor.
All accompanied by delicious sangria!
A great option if you have dietary restrictions and also want to eat healthy without it being boring.
We will definitely return.
A varied menu of rice dishes to choose from, as well as starters. The menu is also mostly gluten-free, with allergens clearly indicated.
The rice dishes are delicious and come in individual portions. You can order through the website by scanning a QR code. The price range is affordable, with set menu options for around €20.
The wait staff is very friendly and is always available to assist with any questions. I highly recommend the experience.
100% FOR Celiacs!
We ate at the movies. All gluten-free fried foods, delicious seafood and very good quality. The homemade cheesecake is delicious too.
The attention is impeccable, they control the gluten issue perfectly. They offer gluten-free bread and beer.
A much better restaurant than the surrounding ones in terms of hygiene and comfort, without a doubt, and at the same price. I leave you the ticket.
Thank you for making it possible for us celiacs to enjoy a day in Calpe!
We saw this place on the recommendation of celiac patients who had been there, and it exceeded our expectations. They have an extensive menu, with plenty of gluten-free options, and the gluten-free pizza is delicious, with a thin crust and cooked to avoid cross-contamination. There was a gluten-free cheesecake dessert option, and it was one of the best. The service was excellent, and they even included coloring pages for the kids. A place we'll definitely come back for.
Perfect place for celiacs. The food is delicious and there are no contamination issues. Plus, they're very friendly, quick, and attentive. Few places serve you this well, despite the hustle and bustle. They're all professionals.
Very good treatment and food.
We were a couple and one of us is Celiac, not gluten intolerant but zero gluten tolerance (no bread crumbs or cross contamination).
When we called the place they told us that we could eat pizza but they told us inside the restaurant that it was better not because the pizza is made in the same oven and better not because of cross contamination (which is appreciated, to prevent any contact with gluten). They gave us several alternatives such as gluten-free pasta, a hamburger with gluten-free bread and gluten-free sauces and it was a success😄😌
The Gluten Free Bread was delicious and the Black Angus beef was delicious adding the option of potatoes made in the pan and delicious too.
On the other hand, I ordered a normal pizza, the Diavola, and it was exquisite, the dough was brutal and very well toasted, aligned and very delicious. A real diavola and not medium spicy without spicy salami like in many coastal places.
Thank you for taking care of celiacs and offering good service in both food and customer service.
We will return!!!
We must be grateful that these types of sites are opened, really, but this one still has a lot of room for improvement.
The variety of products is very limited and the prices are very high. For sporadic consumption, you can buy a loaf of bread and a piece of bwronie, but if you want to serve it on a daily basis to people who cannot eat gluten, it is not viable.
They have mini chuscos the size of a hand, mini round breads, brownies and mini chocolate chip cookies. They also sell pasta and teas from other suppliers at high prices.
They don't give you a ticket, you don't know the price of the bread, the brownies, or the cookies... so I can't add how much each item was.
I know these types of products are more expensive than usual, but there is a line between being in the market and taking advantage of those who cannot eat anything else.
I thought I had room in Elche to buy gluten-free, but I don't think so.
Everything was great, very good gluten-free food, friendly staff, and a pleasant atmosphere. If you're not sure what to eat, they'll give you great advice. They even have gluten-free buckwheat bread. The place is tastefully decorated. We'll definitely be back.
Great place specializing in gluten-free dishes.
The food was exquisite and the service was very good yesterday.
I loved the octopus and bravas.
I would add another gluten-free dessert (there was only couscous or fruit). Otherwise, a 10.
We were there three years ago, and they had gluten-free dishes. We were there yesterday, and it was nothing like it. Now it's a place with a variety of greasy, low-quality food, with no gluten-free alternatives. It's run by Chinese staff who weren't able to take proper orders. The place is full of dogs, even though signs prohibiting them are posted on the door. They don't write anything down, and when they come in, they don't even remember. If you're looking for gluten-free dishes, DON'T COME. If you're looking for a pleasant evening with good service, DON'T COME. ALL THE PHOTOS DISPLAYED IN THE REVIEWS ARE PAST AND THEY DON'T CURRENTLY HAVE ANY GLUTEN-FREE OR CROSS-CONTAMINATION.
A HEALTH INSPECTION WOULD BE AWARE.
Very good food at a good price. Vegan and gluten-free options; there are few places like this. Plus, the staff is very friendly. We'll definitely be back :)

Insanely delicious ice cream 🍨 😋😍
Best ice cream parlor in Javea. They also have gluten-free waffles and lactose-free ice cream flavors. They even offer 0.5-liter takeaway ice cream boxes. The service is very, very friendly. Definitely worth a visit. 100% recommendation.
We found this place through Tripadvisor and it was a success. Restaurant with a large terrace, very delicious and original food. The attention of the waiters...incredible. We went for lunch one day and dinner another... And everything was very, very good. They also have food prepared for celiacs. 100% recommended
The food at this Italian restaurant pleasantly surprised me, especially the gluten-free options. It's clear they take care to offer well-prepared options for people with intolerances, something that isn't so common and which I highly value. The variety and flavor were top-notch, and it's undoubtedly the place's strong point.
However, the overall experience was marred by slow and unprofessional service. It took between 45 and 50 minutes from the time we sat down to the time we received our food. I understand that it was a bit busy, but not enough to justify the delay. The most disappointing thing was the treatment by the employee, Rosy: she was slow, unpleasant, and even defiant at the end of the meal, as if she wanted to kick us out. In fact, it was necessary for the owner himself to intervene to ask her to serve us, otherwise we'd still be waiting. She also kept complaining loudly about everything, which created an uncomfortable atmosphere.
It's a shame, because the cuisine is promising, but customer service urgently needs improvement. I would only return if certain attitudes in the service changed.
We have already gone several times. It is a fantastic restaurant for people with celiac disease and for their companions.
The desserts are delicious, it seems incredible that they are gluten-free.
My partner, the little boy and I went to dinner this Saturday, there was no table but they prepared one for us while we were taking a walk. The service could not have been better, they treated us very well, the food was very good and at a reasonable price, the best thing is that the menu is gluten-free and my partner who has celiac disease appreciates it very much. Thank you very much and we hope to return when we are in the area
The place is beautiful!! The decor is incredible. We went for lunch and it was very quiet. At night, we walked by and it was quite busy. They have very pleasant background music that allowed you to carry on a conversation perfectly. The food is 10/10! The entire menu is gluten-free, except for one of the desserts. They also have gluten-free bread, although the gluten-free bread they offer is incredibly delicious! The staff is super friendly! We were served by Paula and Manolo, two very nice people who made our meal even more enjoyable.
They made the dessert table for our wedding because my wife is gluten intolerant, and we had several guests with intolerances as well. It was, without a doubt, the best choice. All the guests congratulated us because it was the highlight of the wedding in every way (flavor, presentation, intolerances). They also made the cake, which was completely personalized, and like the dessert table, all the details were handmade, and it was exactly how we wanted (I don't have a photo). They knew how to capture our wishes down to the smallest detail. Thank you so much, as always. We know that with you, it's a sure success. You're present at all our celebrations and elevate them to another level. 🥰
I don't give zero stars because it doesn't allow it. TERRIBLE DEAL WITH THE SUPPOSED OWNER/MANAGER. Empathy with celiac disease ZERO. In addition to being rude. I told him I was celiac and I saw with my eyes how they handled the pizza with hands full of flour from cutting the other normal pizzas and they cut it with the same wheel as the rest, I told him to change it because I had seen it and he went LIKE A BULL. It didn't change anything of course, in fact he asked us out in a subtle way. “Pay for the drink and you leave.”
I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT AT ALL.
A little more humanity for people with intolerances or allergies. THANK YOU.
A hidden gem for celiacs, exceptional gluten-free pizzas, with a unique homemade dough and the entire menu adapted, living in Murcia or Alicante and not making the trip to this little corner to try them is a crime if you are celiac!
Had a lovely meal at The Sands Bistro.
Most if not everything on the menu is Gluten Free, which was very nice and was delicious too.
Portion sizes were large as well, so you're not going to go away hungry 😄
Nice cosy atmosphere with very nice service, making this a restaurant we will be coming back to.😃
One of the best gluten-free places in Alicante. The meat is always spectacular. I recommend the chocolates (like fritters) that are gluten-free, and the dessert is the chocolate cake! The attention is always great
A 10/10 experience! We ordered the set menu, which was perfect value for money. We had a great meal, and it was DELICIOUS. For those with celiac disease, there's a LOT of variety, including breaded dishes and everything. And on top of that, the service was wonderful, accompanied by the best views.
100% recommended.
Very cozy place led by a very attentive Carlo.
The gluten-free pizza was very good, the only shame was not being able to try the normal one because it looked spectacular, Massi undoubtedly has a talent for pasta and you can tell that it is fresh.
Without a doubt, a place to return to on every getaway to Calpe.
It's a place where we always like to go. The staff was friendly, efficient, fast, very good professionals, we calmly let ourselves be advised by them. Perfect atmosphere, pleasant, cozy... My daughter and I went to have pancakes for breakfast one day, the best I have ever tasted, considering that I am CELIAC, and the coffee was delicious. Today we returned to eat, everything was delicious, the dessert was spectacular... and GLUTEN FREE. We will return!!! I recommend it to you👌🏻
Here, we understand over good food. Very tasty paella and sangria (white and red). The service is friendly and prompt. The menu was a bit unclear, because the paellas didn't say what they contained. Good allergy information, gluten-free food for celiacs was easy to find. The sanitary facilities are clean. I definitely recommend doing business!
I have been a client for years. At this time, due to medical reasons, I cannot eat gluten and to my surprise, despite charging a €2 supplement for a gluten-free pasta dish (I understand that this type of pasta is somewhat more expensive), what really surprises me is the small amount of pasta they serve in the gluten-free portion compared to the gluten-containing portion. This has happened to me three times now and I have felt like a second-class diner paying more than anyone else. I hope they improve this aspect.
We went for dinner and it was a success. Especially for people with celiac disease, as was our case. Very nice staff and very delicious food. Highly recommended.
An excellent restaurant in an idyllic setting with a very complete menu and good service and communication. And it has gluten-free beer. We will eat here again without a doubt.
Super!! They have very delicious gluten-free pizzas. My family loved the regular pizza. And very good attention. One of the waiters brought my kids some toys to paint and the truth is a 10!!!!
Very delicious food and suitable for celiacs.
We ordered some anchovies that were very good, and they fried them in chickpea flour in a separate pan. A grilled squid, somewhat tough but very good in flavor, a rice with artichokes, shrimp and cuttlefish that is very, very delicious, and a very tender entrecôte, with homemade fries that is appreciated. For dessert, torrija, flan and cheesecake, all very good. Warning, the torrija is made gluten-free.
The arepas and empanadas are very delicious and 100% gluten-free, they fry everything without any cross contamination. Very attentive. It would be great if the fries were not frozen or had the option of corn chips.
The service and exceptional attention and the spectacular food, all quality homemade dishes and for celiacs, very cozy atmosphere, recommended 100%. We will return
Small and cozy restaurant, the food is very good, we ordered rice with crust and it was very good.
I chose it because I am celiac and this place is advised by acecova (celiac community Valencian association) therefore safe to eat gluten-free, I often go to Orihuela and I will definitely repeat, by the way the delicious cheesecake (the small piece for how good it was hehehehe I would have eaten another piece)😊😊😊😊
The entire menu is gluten-free.
