We went here earlier today 15/06/25 and it was really nice. Hubby is gluten free and most of the menu is coeliac friendly which is fab. Portions are good and a good selection on the menu - quite a lot of chilli so if you are not a fan choose wisely. Staff lovely- we were served by Eileen who was very helpful and friendly and knowledgeable of any dietary requirements. My only one issue is that it was really chilly - make sure you have a jumper/ jacket even if it is 18 degrees outside. Thanks Pho- we will be back. Restuarants like this deserve return custom x

Its not often I am able to eat glutenfree, vegan pizza but Pizza Punks made a great one.

Monika Turska

It was a real treat, excellent food! We had a veggie and vegan breakfast which kept us full for most of the day visiting Glasgow. Vegan and gluten free bread and cakes were great!

Fantastic spot for dinner! The menu had great variety, including plenty of gluten-free options—which was a big reason we chose it. The space is beautiful, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We didn’t need a reservation, but since it’s a smaller restaurant, it’s probably smart to book ahead. Highly recommend!

Andy Leask

Incredible food, with lots of great Gluten Free options.

Richard Coffey

Very nice dining atmosphere at this venue and there was an acoustic music gig as well on Halloween. There's a gluten free menu too which is great. Overall, the service was very friendly, especially from Mallory the waitress who served me. The shop could be stocked with a wider variety of souvenir items though.

viv Ketchen

Was lovely food and catered for my gluten intolerance, very well.

I found this restaurant on the ‘find me GF app’ and wow, the best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had. We were served by a lovely blonde lady who was so lovely and really reassuring asking if I was coeliac when ordering. I highly recommend the West House & look forward to returning in the future :)

Tasty Tapas- you'd have no idea it was gluten-free!

Claire Carstairs

Husband is coeliac and had one of the best meals ever!! Pulled pork burger and salt and chilli chips - he said were exceptional!

Ewan McLachlan

Dedicated gluten free menu Breaded chicken and cheesecake are highlights

I chose this place for lunch with my family as I had read the amazing reviews (especially about their accommodations for gluten allergies). Most of our group ordered the lunch special, and all of our food was amazing! We especially enjoyed the crispy fries. The atmosphere, decor, and music were great, and the attention to detail was clear, even during the somewhat spooky trek to the basement washrooms. I highly recommend this place for a delicious meal 😋

Food was delicious staff very friendly and helpful. My only little issue was we ordered the sharer street food meal. It was advertised as gluten free option but we weren’t told that that the starter and bread were not gluten free. If we had known that we would have ordered differently.

Scott Muir

I'm gluten free and the meal is had was smashing my non gluten friendly unfortunately can't say the same, he had enchiladas and they where packed full of rice, I know they can be made with rice but this was all rice and small cubes of chicken not very appetising looking, real shame as heard great thing about it.

Akcd

Great food, good for gluten free and/ or vegans. Ramesh was a great server, so thank you!

Russell Moffatt

We attended as a large party to celebrate a graduation. Staff were friendly and attentive, nothing was too much trouble and everyone had a smile on their face even though they were super busy. The food was delicious and all of our party enjoyed their meals. Good choice of gluten free options too. Thanks to management and staff for making this a wonderful celebration for ourselves and our visitors.

Brian McWilliam

First time there. Food was excellent all 5 of us enjoyed the meal. Good range of food available with options for Gluten free and vegetarian. Waitress upstairs was very hard working providing good service.

Linzi Todd

Had a fab night here! Food was amazing, they change up the area where the food originates every 6 months… we will be back!

Blimey, what a lovely little find, I've eaten all abouts this street but never noticed Panang . The weather was gr8, so I got a table outside, tbh inside was bursting with covers and as it was just Wiffy and I were got one of the last two tables.. I'll book ahead for next time and be sure not to miss out on the V interesting plates and mouth watering flavours. Wiffy loves the 🌶🌶 🌶 I'm a bit of a wuss, and the menu caters for all ( not sure about Vegans , Gluten etc.. etc.. so check before you book) The servers were visibly tearing aboot but I didn't see a single employee doing fluff all, so the management appears to have load/labour spot on. Nice work 👏 👌 👍 And if you can, please pay with cash and tip your servers in cash, as a family business operator Cash is King and £10( above the service charge of folding money to your server is appreciated with a wonderful smile that's Not on the menu. We didn't eat our plates clean, but we over ordered so we could do a picking spread.

Me and my family went for afternoon tea, I have celiac disease and I was worried that they wouldn't have a good selection but I could choose from a bunch of sandwich fillings, I got a HUGE scone (served with in house made cream that had a lovely vanilla taste to it) and some cupcakes! It was really nice, you can have tea in cute little fine China cups with the little spoons and suger cubes! It was adorable! The restaurant was full and they actually had to turn away walk ins! The staff are lovely and the inside of the restaurant gives me modern and cozy vibes! Definitely worth a visit! Just hope your lucky enough to get a table!

Had a great meal in here and great service. The food was good, and they even catered for gluten-free

Rose Whelan

Lovely spot, great for allergies. I have celiac disease and had loads of options. Made adjustments to savoury waffles to create dessert waffles for the kids. Our server Grant was great!

Ashling Fleming

Love this place!!!! Came in here yesterday and the first thing you notice is the decor, beautifully designed and gorgeous at night. Such a calm atmosphere which i appreciated as someone who gets overwhelmed with busy/loud places, this experience was relaxing and a great place to talk with friends while celebrating a birthday. Staff are lovely and helpful, even approached us to ask if we wanted them to sing happy birthday with us as they had noticed my friends 19th sash. Food was amazing, the gnocchi was delicious. Gluten Free options aswell!!! No complaints good portions. Overall, a lovely place to visit that is calm and has great food, five stars!

Tanya Diaz

Wow! Just wow! From a great smile at the entrance to immediate service. Followed by recommendations, attention to detail and small talk! I’m traveling solo and this was an experience that just made me smile and feel comfortable on Easter Sunday! Highly recommend the Duck and “gluten-free” waffles! Also had a great Bloody Mary! Thank you!

J P

Really surprised by this place having heard very mixed reviews. The food was very good (clean plates all round) as was the service. They were more thorough with my being gluten free than I've ever experienced and the GF options were plentiful. It's very nicely decorated too. We will definitely go back.

Jill

This is a bar focused restaurant, so it's quite casual. Gluten-free churros, with delicious dip- highly recommended. Yum! The roasted beets ranged from cold to hot but mostly luke warm. Beets tasted good, but I was bothed by the temperature inconsistency. I was told this was normal.

Heike Renz

A thoroughly enjoyable visit! Superb fish oysters, delicious mussels in chili coconut, and a juicy burger! Attentive, friendly staff! Gluten-free? No problem! Vegetarian - of course! We'll be back!

Chris Murray

Really fantastic gluten free options, staff were fantastic, had options for indoor and outdoor seating. Place had a really nice vibe and enough room to seat six people at short notice. Will be back soon!

Sheila Smith

Really nicely decorated and well laid out. Good menu and a separate gluten free menu lots of choice and staff were really helpful. We were both really happy with our choices and service. We would definitely go back.

Lou Duckett

Great place. Nice food. Had plenty of gluten free options.

Sher Miller

good drinks, good service. unfortunately nothing gluten free AND vegan on the menu! still have as many stars because their service was impeccable and their knowledge on allergies was great!

Katie Wickman

Went with my mum and aunt, mum is coeliac. Both rated their food 10/10 (and are usually a little fussy). My burger was great, chips fluffy and generous portions. Beef burger slightly pink and tender, gluten free fish and chips crumbed batter lovely and crisp. Service very friendly and warm.

Deb Graham

Really friendly place, has a lovely roof terrace and 2 more bars inside. Gluten free beer on tap for those who are interested

jasmina dave

I went for the unlimited tapas last night and I explicitly said multiple times that I’m allergic to gluten and they fed me 3 gluten tacos. In which I had to go hospital after the dinner. - they still charged me for the meal.

Bridie McCarroll

YUM! My sister and I shared the nachos, corn and some tacos. Was delicious, reasonably priced and good serving sizes left us very full. With refreshing cocktails and great service I would definitely recommend.

sharon davidson

The food is marvelous. What we like is that they have a gluten free menu.

Daniel Thomas-Peter

I am Gluten free and something here really didn't agree with me, even when I ordered gf labelled food. Their Tortilla was dry and had no Alioli on the side, even though the prices where reasonable you get what you pay for and I expect more when ordering gf food.

Eric Ramon

Wow, this place was just amazing. We spent 2.5 weeks in Scotland and this was probably our favorite restaurant/meal of the trip. Food and cocktails were amazing. I can’t have gluten and even their meals with no gluten ingredients were fantastic. Wish we had time to go back a second time.

Jay

I was recommended Johnny Foxes by a friend while visiting Inverness. I’m Gluten and Dairy free. This place did not disappoint. Plenty of alternatives to choose from. Opted for the battered haddock and chips. WOW! The batter on this is one of the best gluten free versions I’ve had so far. The atmosphere was lovely and all the staff were great. Although I didn’t book, I may suggest doing so on a weekend as it did start to get busy and a lot of ‘reserved’ signs were on tables. Would definitely return.

Pum Vaandrager

I did not stay at the hotel but only had dinner at the restaurant, which was amazing. Tasty, fresh, healthy, well made. And the staff was really helpful with my dietary restrictions (glutenfree and vegan)

ian adams

Food was great but low scoring for cross contamination of gluten free meal . My wife is celiac and something in her meal contained gluten. Thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service was impeccable. I was very disappointed that the company did not respond to my review,

Allan Tyler

10/10 for burgers. We had the Scotch&Rye beef smash burger and the chicken with bbq pulled pork (gluten free). Excellent. Chips aka fries are cooked in a fryer that is not gluten- contaminated, so happy days. Tasty. We had one portion of ordinary fries (5*) and one portion of garlic-parmesan loaded fries (4* good but not the Absolute Taste Sensation I was expecting when they were recommended). Key Lime cheesecake: good, not too sweet, but I wanted more zing from the lime and the whipped cream detracted rather than added. The cake portions were modest -- makes sense because burgers and fries are big, but felt a bit mean in comparison. Service: super-friendly, very welcoming, but slowed down when it became busier and our second round of drinks never arrived, nor did the bill (check) before we put on our coats and asked to pay. Atmosphere: we enjoyed the soul-funk playlist and we didn't feel hurried. A solid 8.67/10. Very tasty. Caters for gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan. Go.

Sam Cooke

The food was extremely tasty, the vibes were spot on, the staff were very friendly, and there were lots of vegan and gluten free options! All in all, I would highly recommend the pigs wings for a zainy food experience.

Natalie Refault

Lovely place. Staff were friendly and attentive. Separate gluten free, vegan, vegetarian and dairy free menu 👍

fridaybass

Great spot for lunch. My wife is celiac and they took every precaution to make her meal. Great range of GF options as well.

Ronnie email.com

No gluten free cakes.

Garry Osbourne

An excellent meal including a gluten free option with great service from friendly and attentive staff.

Mitchell Majcher

Went here on the afternoon I got engaged for a little meal & glass of champagne. The service was great, tables are spacious, seats are comfortable. Fiancé & I shared the fish & chips. They were made gluten free for my gluten free dietary restriction (celiacs disease) and was the best fish & chips I had in Edinburgh while I was visiting. The crust was light and the sauce provided was also tasty. The chips were nothing super special but tasted pretty good as a compliment to the fish. Thanks for adding to my special engagement day, catering to my allergy, and I would recommend this restaurant to everyone in the area!

Stephanie Strachan

Amazing service and great gluten free menu! Staff also very helpful as also needed dairy free. Nothing was a problem. Highly recommend

chiara greco

Truly one of the most beautiful restaurants in Edinburgh! Great view and food as well as super friendly and welcoming staff. Also quite fast with the courses. I would only say that maybe they could include more gluten-free options in the starters. As for the lobster dish, for the price I was a little disappointed at the end of my dish. Small, without accompanying rice.
