Loved my experience here the staff were super kind and helpful, I rang beforehand and was made to feel super welcome and when I arrived I was told all the safety measures put in place such as a seperate gf fryer and working area. I had the fried chicken burger it was okay, the bread tasted a bit sconish and the chicken was a little underseasoned but the Kumara fries were insanely good! Would love to try one of the other burgers :)
Great place to get a burger for a coeliac, though only if you go on a day the buns are fresh! I went twice, and the first time my gf bun was really nice, but the second time it completely broke apart within the first two bites, making it too hard to eat without a knife and fork. These are things we deal with as gluten free people anyway, so it wasn’t surprising, but a little disappointing after such a good bun the time before. Otherwise the burgers were great, the chicken nuggets were really nicely cooked, and the chips were yum too!
Great customer service - good wine selections and food well priced.
A lot of Gluten free options and a bonus gf complementary shortbread with my coffee - that made me very happy.

I had a best GF fish and chips from here last week & my partner had the Supreme burger, chips, 2 fish & a sausage.
Absolutely delicious.
Nice and clean family owned business.
Will be back to try more from the Gluten Free Menu.
Had the most delicious dinner here! As a coeliac sometimes it’s hard eating out but the waitress was so helpful and informative with my ordering and it did NOT disappoint! So yummy :) highly recommend the karaage chicken….

Fantastic night out. Staff were amazing and made us so welcome. We had someone with Celiac disease. Most of the menu is gluten free but for the bits that weren't the staff made sure she had an alternative. Thank you all, you were fantastic

In short, I’ve been here twice and I’d choose to dine elsewhere in chch in places I know do a much better experience for this price.
I don’t have pictures from our visit but they wouldn’t justify anything anyway. The truffle fries had no truffle, just pecorino cheese on top to make them look like truffle fries, a common hack/ trick. The gluten free pizza base could do with some work/improvements, we’ve definitely had better.
The kids menu items are $20 which is so expensive for what you get. We ordered the kids macaroni, and for that portion (the size of a bread and butter plate in a small cast iron sizzler) it would cost $3 to make and they’re charging $20, already steep for a kids meal so I expected it to be amaaaazing. It also came out on a sizzling plate, from a kids menu!? Why would you serve a piping hot cast iron plate to children? It makes absolutely no sense. The staff could do with some major training on the drinks list, it’s a small wine list and wouldn’t take very long to teach the staff what is what, they knew nothing about wine whatsoever. The flavour of our pizza was ok, the beef cheek was lovely, they also have a sparking red wine which was new for us and delicious (even if the waitress didn’t know if it was actually sparkling red wine). All in all I’d choose other restaurants over this next time for sure. There just aren’t enough redeeming factors.

Special note for dietary requirements: the menu was extremely detailed when it came to gluten free and vegetarian options, and the staff were also very attentive to this when we ordered.
There was lots to choose from for our gluten free table. The menu also said that their mayonnaise and soy sauce were all gluten free too.
We ordered chicken teriyaki, tofu, rice, sushi and vegetables to share - everything was incredible.
The meal cost $106- for two people but we did have an alcoholic drink each as well.
Great service and atmosphere. Thank you to the staff for a great evening.
I am Coeliac and the gluten free pizza base was the best I think I've ever had. My family actually said the base was nicer than the normal pizza base so 10/10 for food. The beef my husband got was very fatty but the sauce was good and the potato served with it was outstanding. Polenta fries were lovely but they forgot to bring the aoili sauce with it which maybe we were meant to order that as we saw someone else being served this. The service was outstanding, especially given I screwed up the online booking. They were all really lovely. I would definitely go back again just for the gluten free pizza.
Overall great experience- great gluten free chicken and my partner enjoyed the pasta. Great service- the only thing I would fault is the pay wave system, even though I swiped the card I still got charged as pay wave and it wouldn't let me insert it, I guess it's just the paywave system but was disappointed. But the staff we were really lovely about it and Overall.
Went for brunch got a gluten free chicken burger the (JFK), it was amazing would 1000% recommend for gluten free people. There ice lattè was really nice also.
Also available gluten free
It's good that GF and VG menus are always displayed in NZ.
I had honey ginger tea and VG salad.
A cafe with a great atmosphere by the sea
I was able to talk to my friend fairly slowly.
Booked today for lunch thinking would beat the usual Mother’s Day rush - so did everyone else as restaurant was packed but staff were amazing rushing around taking orders - checking on drinks etc and the food was up to usual standard. My friend is gluten intolerant and waitress spent tine talking through the menu with her. Excellent lunch - thank you Old Vicarage
I got a $18 burger and I feel like I ate a $36 burger filling and tasty and gluten free. My partner bought a fish burger and finished the whole thing (that's a 1st) and those chips where mean as! 💯
I made two seperate orders with my partner (they didn’t know we would pick up together) and he was given my gluten free burger, i received a regular burger and it was very lucky I didn’t eat it as I am celiac and get bad symptoms when eating gluten. This is quite a big mistake and they need to be more careful when it comes to allergies, I also paid more for it to be gluten free but that was the least of my concerns.
A really great cafe! The food was excellent – I was particularly impressed by the large selection of gluten-free and vegetarian options. The rest of the menu also leaves nothing to be desired. The coffee was really tasty. The service was incredibly friendly and attentive. I particularly liked how child-, pet- and wheelchair-friendly the café is - everyone really feels welcome here. The ambience is beautifully designed and invites you to linger. Absolutely recommended – I would love to come back!
We really enjoyed our dinner here. Great staff served up a delicious barbecue feast for two with lots of gluten free options for my wife. Love the decor and vibe of the place as well. Check it out!!
We ate at The Goldfinch for the first time today and it was fantastic. We went for lunch and had the calamari, mushroom tacos, and eggplant followed by tiramisu and the chocolate treasure desserts. Everything was delicious. The calamari was the best we’ve ever had! All of the dishes were great. The flavours were unique and interesting and so tasty. They have several options for people who have to be gluten or dairy free and those who are vegetarian. The service was attentive and the atmosphere was lovely. They also had great music playing. We will definitely go back!
We were really surprised at how good the pizza was considering Hell Pizza is a chain restaurant. It was really good - and that was even with gluten free bases! They even did gluten free garlic bread, and the best bit - they sell vegan EatKinda ice-cream - made from cauliflower!! Super creamy and tasty - and saves cauliflowers deemed not perfect enough for sale at supermarkets, from going to landfill. Just brilliant! Must try :-)
Loved dining here on Valentine’s Day! My partner and I both had carbonara - mine was gluten free and (according to him) just as good as his! Great staff too, really enjoyable evening.
When it comes to takeaway pizza, nothing beats Hell. You pay a premium price for it, but a premium quality pizza is what you get. I love their gluten-free sprouted seed base, even though I'm not one of those gluten intolerant people. The onion rings are pretty darn good, too.
Our waiter was outstanding, we missed his name, a gentleman with a bead, he was attentive but not intrusive. The 2 person tables were well spaced so you could quietly chat, the kings choice meals was brilliant, I usually have trouble finding food as vegan and gluten free, but this was expertly catered for.
Not great Gluten Free pizza for how expensive it is. The regular pizzas look amazing but the gluten free pizza and crust wasnt much better than dominoes
We came in on Good Friday and had the set menu with the 5 cocktails. It was amazing! The server we had (didn't catch his name but had very short hair and an accent) was just awesome. So friendly and helpful. Last time I came to Original Sin, I had terrible heartburn and straight away he mixed up a concoction for me behind the bar that cured it. What doesn't this guy do well?!
Your team were also fabulous at being flexible with one of us having coeliac disease. No issues - they made a custom gluten free pizza and also gave a separate platter for the entree - all gluten free.
Thanks again team, we will definitely be back.

Amazing atmosphere and service, but the star was the epic vegan food. Heaps of gluten free options too. We over ordered and have no regrets. Wish we had a place like this back home.
Really average service and meals. This place has definitely gone down hill. Ordered a salad with no croutons (gluten) arrived with croutons had to wait for a replacement by which time the entire table had finished their meals and I ate alone. Absolutely no apology at all. Coke was flat. Chips which have always been a favourite at joes garage were not pleasant at all. Will not be returning.
If you are strolling around the city and want to try Indian food with great authentic ambience and visual Artefacts, look no further. Plenty of options in the menu, gluten free and dairy free options available too. All n all nice food! 💙
Delicious pizza! Really tender pork and tasty pineapple. Gluten free bases available. Staff are very very busy and there was a fair bit of wait time for food and drinks. Unlikely to get an outside table if you’re a walk-in.

The Dish was absolutely incredible in every way. The restaurant is beautiful, the service amazing and the food was sooo good. I am coeliac and 90% of the menu was (marked) gf or gfo, which made my experience so much easier and less stressful. We received our mains less than 10 minutes after ordering and it was the best Thai food that I have ever had in Christchurch! We will definitely be back again.

Love your pizza, but as a coeliac, I require a gluten free base. I am disappointed that we bought 3 pizzas, it cost 74 dollars and my pizza was called a double, but was half the size of the other two and more expensive. Coeliac is NOT a choice. Gluten free is the ONLY way to treat it!
