Love, love, love this place! Been coming for however long they've been here... over 20 years and I still travel from Hampshire for their yummy food.
Tiny kitchen, but talented chefs that create amazing, tasty, scrumptious food. Large portions, fresh and very tasty. Vegetarian, vegan and wheat/gluten free catered for.
Healthy eating, lovely staff, and of course the lovely owner Ritchie. Personally greets us all and treats us like royalty.

Service and hygienic is impeccable I love spending the day here getting some work done and enjoying a great atmosphere
Amazing food, Gluten free, vegetarian and vegan options. Staff were attentive and attended to all our needs. Thank you for an amazing experience. Hass our waiter was delightful!
Fantastic fish & chips with great gluten-free options! We’ve come back several times and had the gluten-free cod and plaice (available Wednesdays and Thursdays, note only fish can be done gf), along with chips, curry sauce, and gravy—all are gluten-free too and absolutely delicious. The batter was really crisp compared to other gf fish & chips we’ve tried, and the mushy peas were some of the best we’ve had. Highly recommend!
Sadly there’s no consistency with their gluten free offering. The first time we went they said to call up early on the day and they would make the batter in advance. They did, we went and collected the food, it was absolutely delicious and we were thrilled we’d found somewhere which made excellent gluten free fish. Today we called up at opening and asked in advance for gluten free fish and were told they couldn’t do it as they didn’t have the batter. This was confusing as last time they made the batter themselves. We even pointed out they’d done it before with no issues but it was a definite “no” from them. So unfortunately we’re back to the drawing board of trying to find a gluten free fish and chip shop.
Please either commit to offering gluten free or don’t offer it at all. It’s really disheartening to have found your wonderful shop but now not be able to go anymore.
The people are very friendly and helpful. The food was amazing. The person I went with is gluten-free. And they were so helpful. I will definitely be back.
The food is very good quality and they cater well for gluten free. Service is amazing. The staff is very well trained polite and welcoming. Always a pleasure to dine there.
We discovered this hidden gem early Sunday afternoon when there were no other customers around.
Strangely, I had a feeling that this restaurant must be very good, so we decided to pop in and ask about gluten-free options. They offered gluten-free pizza and pasta, so we decided to give it a try.
The bottom line is that we both fell in love with their pizza! The dessert, pistachio and coconut ice cream, was a delightful surprise—I never would have imagined that coconut and pistachio could go so well together. The Irish coffee was truly divine, and the owner and his wife were lovely. They created such a friendly atmosphere. Later on, we met other customers who even invited us to their nearby home.
We would definitely go back again and again—to try their pasta and other dishes next time!
Can’t believe we didn’t come sooner! This place has all you could want from an Italian restaurant- charming staff, good music/vibes, quick service and authentic food. Everything was delicious (e.g., bolognese, carbonara) and homemade - the panna cotta was the best I have ever had. Really appreciated the gluten free pasta which you couldn’t even tell was any different. The manager, who also served us, was incredibly attentive and kind and you can tell much pride is taken in this establishment. This is definitely our new fav local spot and needless to say I highly recommend.
Booked a birthday meal for 3 people on Monday Night while booking the table on website it said they have Mezza Mondays so I booked that too at the Kingston Branch. I also informed that one guest was gluten free.
We arrived at 6.30pm started to order our Mezza Monday deal only to be told they have this anymore I booked the night before on their website. After a long conversation with the manager he said he would do the Mezza deal not a good start to our evening . We ordered main meals and drinks too . Also explained that one guest was gluten free . Our drinks came but one was missing had to ask three times over 20 minutes before drink was delivered to table. We had our starters then had to ask for our main meals and clear our tables. We waited till 8.30pm still no main meal so we got up spoke to manager and said we could not wait any longer and that we very disappointed as if had spoilt a birthday meal out . The manager did agree for us to not pay our bill but this really wasn’t that point I’m sorry to say we will not be returning to this Kingston branch anymore .
Pictured is the gluten free pizza. Would absolutely recommend this place, these guys make amazing pizza. I've had the gluten free and the wheat base, both are top. The wheat dough is proper, very much like real Italian pizza. The gluten base is as good as they come. They are flexible with their toppings and will make the pizza any way you like. We've had about 6 pizzas now and we have loved them all.
Great fish and chips - and what friendly service. Batter is amazing and gluten-free. The portion sizes are very good and this feels like real value for money. We have been coming for a couple of years and have never been disappointed!
