Excellent experience as a diner with Coeliac disease.
Told the lady as we went in, and the waiter reconfirmed when he came to take the drink order. So reassuring to know the staff were communicating.
Bart was great throughout the meal.
We came here for a group meal with friends, and were served by Christina who was very attentive and friendly. As a coeliac I feel like a bit of a burden eating at restaurants but Christina was so knowledgable about the allergen menu and made me feel really safe with the allergen procedures. All my food came with a gluten-free sticker and was also delicious. It also all came out at the same time so we could all eat together. Thanks Christina for making our meal out a lovely one!
The current fish & chip deal is fantastic and was great to find that it included gluten free haddock as my wife cannot have the traditional batter. Lakeisha was so helpful and Jo and Ben were very funny when they arrived for their shifts. Thank you to all - we thoroughly enjoyed our impromptu 'meal out' as we sat inside to eat.
I’ve been searching for Gluten Free options in the UK and have found them hard to come by. The staff here were extremely helpful and the burger bun was fantastic. Hopefully I’ll find more Smash Burger joints around the UK as I keep travelling. Thanks guys
Takeaway - We had the most amazing service from Ibrahim. We have many intolerances and one gluten allergy between us, and he was extremely helpful and informative with this, both on the phone and once I arrived. Adaptations to menu items were made.
The food was amazing.
We went along for the pub quiz on Monday night and had dinner before it. Had a lovely meal and great friendly service. Especially good for GLUTEN FREE - my wife is coeliac but had an amazing chicken burger and chips! Thank us for a fun evening.
Gluten free pizza that exceeded my expectations. Excellent variety of bases and toppings. Pizza arrived about 20 minutes after I ordered it. Probably the most delicious pizza that I've had in a decade, far better than the established chains.
I recently visited Olé Tapas Bar in Wolverton, Milton Keynes, and it was an exceptional experience. Tucked away in the historic Triangle Building, the restaurant exudes a cozy and authentic Spanish ambiance. The warm welcome from Beatriz and the attentive staff made us feel right at home.
We started with the Olé Platter, a generous selection perfect for sharing. It featured suckling pig croquettes, crispy chicken strips, chorizo lollipops, and Padrón peppers, all served with chorizo mayo. Each item was freshly prepared, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented.
For mains, the Arroz Negro stood out—a rich squid ink rice dish with fresh squid and prawns, accompanied by aioli. The depth of flavor was remarkable, and the seafood was cooked to perfection. We also enjoyed the Gambas al Ajillo, garlic prawns served with crispy garlic and hot smoked paprika, which were both aromatic and delicious.
The dessert was a delightful surprise. The churros were crispy on the outside, soft inside, and came with a luscious chocolate orange sauce. However, the highlight was the rice pudding, which was creamy, sweet, and topped with caramelized sugar—a perfect end to the meal.
Olé Tapas Bar offers an authentic taste of Spain with a menu that caters to various dietary preferences, including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. The combination of exceptional food, warm hospitality, and a charming atmosphere makes it a must-visit spot in Milton Keynes.
Harlee was an absolute Angel, couldn’t do more for us as an annoying big table of 8. She was constantly on our drinks order for bottomless brunch, we had awkward people for food - gluten free, no spicy, no bread etc and nothing was too much for her. I would reccomend her in a heartbeat, we’ve been to turtle bay before for bottomless brunch in Northampton and it doesn’t even compare to the service Harlee gave us. For a birthday brunch in December she was amazing, thank you soo so much
Our first dining “in” experience since the end of lockdown.
Following receipt of an offer, a birthday drink on the house, I was reminded that BB had a restaurant in Milton Keynes, so we booked in advance.
The restaurant was little way out of Centre MK, (google maps direction were rubbish, but we did find the location fairly easy).
The weather was wet and windy, in stark contrast to the warm friendly welcome in the bright and cheerful restaurant. The staff were brilliant, we have a number of allergies, one person requiring gluten free and black pepper free, and another a soya allergy, no issues. Chose what you want and we will check with chef was the prompt response. One starter ruled out as the pate have integral black pepper.
Starter of crab and avocado, no gluten or pepper hit the mark as did beetroot and hot smoked salmon, tenser covered the allergies and I enjoyed the pâté.
Mains two rump steaks and duck leg confit these were equally good.
Service excellent, good food what more can you ask
Lovely food! Lovely place. Our waitress Amelie was amazing. It’s tricky to find food I can eat being Veggie and Gluten free but she checked with the manager and the kitchen and was able to swap out the bits I couldn’t eat so that I was still able to have a lovely and satisfying meal!
Thank you to all- all the staff who came to our table were lovely, bubbly and kind!
And massive thank you to Amelie for being so helpful! 🌸
Popped in yesterday at lunch time, was extremely busy.
But this did not effect Kia's outstanding customer service.
She was polite and friendly and calmly explained what was on offer.
Coffee was tasty and gluten free cake was lovely.
Be returning with the family.
We had such an amazing experience at the Bella Italia in Milton Keynes. I am gluten free and dairy free and I was blown away with the amount of things on the menu o could eat.
They even had cookie dough for dessert which I polished off very quickly.
The service was exceptional from the moment we stepped through the door and the lady that served us called Rebeka was amazing. She was knowledgeable, attentive and so friendly. It’s been a long time since we have had service like that. We will definitely be going back.
Our server (Reese) was lovely and provided great alternatives to some meals due to texture difficulties (because of autism). Two members of our group were also coeliac and they had a really good experience. Highly recommend.
Food and Service was great. My girlfriend has a Gluten allergy and it was great to have for her to have a Gluten free menu. Vivek the server was great at making us feel at home. Give him a raise. I had the Prawn and Chicken Mild Curry and my girlfriend the pad thai. Delicious and yummy.
I am gluten free and have only just found out about Leon. One of the staff members, Amelia, was very helpful with telling me what was suitable for me. Food was amazing, the chicken nuggets definitely stood out for me and I will definitely be coming back!
£80 for two adults and a child, a lot for a few pizzas, in particular the gluten free pizza was shocking. It was over £20, just look at the photo (iphone for scale), it speaks for itself. You get better lookin frozen pizzas for a few pounds these days. Just taking advantage of those with allergies, gluten free flour isn't particularly expensive! The salad bar, including dressings, was very sad. Maybe it was better stocked earlier in the day, the pictures show it around 7pm and it wasn't restocked (OK if you only want a tomotos and jalapeños I suppose! ) after that, apart from some dressing. That was only because I asked for it, even then a tiny amount (see photo of single dressing, which was after refilling!) was poured on top of grated carrots, sweetcorn and tortilla crumbs. Yuck.
The food is OK, really much the same as it has been for years. No offers in the restaurant, seems they would rather you get delivery these days, as it wasnt worth the price. May order delivery, as still one of few gluten free options for pizza, but won't eat in again after that experience. For that price you can get much better elsewhere in MK.
We come this way two to three times a year and now we have found The Oligarch we will be returning on our next visit. A special mention to Georgia our waitress who was excellent and made sure my food was gluten free, brilliant and thank you.
Visited TGI's before going to the theatre for a drink. Noticed how hard one of the waitresses was working.
We returned after the show. We spoke to the same waitress and I explained that I required a gluten free menu due to having Coeliac disease. She went and got a tablet and went through the menu with me so I was able to order with confidence. She also came to us when we had finished our meal to ensure everything was ok.
I asked the waitress for her name and I found out it was Kath.....she is one of the manageresses.She really is an asset to the company and constantly worked with a smile on her face.
Lovely restaurant. Delicious food and excellent service. I'm gluten free and the staff but me at ease with their knowledge of the ingredients in each of the dishes. Also, lots of choices of gluten free dishes.

Following great recommendations on Facebook, on a recent visit to Milton Keynes, my family and I went to Thai Modern. We were all very impressed, the service was excellent, the decor was authentic and the food was outstanding. We gave in our order the day before as one celiac and another of the group allergic to fish sauce. We were accommodated 100% and the food was as good, if not better than when we visited Thailand last year. Highly recommend, shame we don't live closer! First class
Really nice evening at Veeno celebrating a birthday. Massive thank you to Taylor who went above and beyond for us and was super helpful and accommodating for someone that required gluten free food. Food and service were amazing, highly recommend!
The manager was knowledgeable about gluten free options. I'd recommend this place for anyone who is gluten free or a coeliac as they have dedicated chip fryers and can grill all their wings (rather than fry) so they're safe!!
You can also have nearly all the sauces bar a couple which is great.
We ordered the deal £35 - 25 wings, 2 sides, 2 drinks and loaded fries or nachos... its a great deal!
The wings were tasty, nice charring and good flavour. Loved the nachos and fries.
The let down was the coleslaw...it was so bland and to be honest the service was a bit bland too. We were checked on once after ordering but by that point had nearly finished our meal.
I also found the vibe a bit of a mix - sports on all TVs and dance music playing (but if thats your thing you'll love it).
Would I return.. indeed I would! It's good value, tasty and you know exactly what you're getting.
I came here a few weeks ago with my family, intending to have dinner and a drink. We were shown to our seats and were asked if we had any allergies, which we did - one gluten free person. They informed us to look for the "GF" stated next to the food options, and those were what could be chosen. We chose drinks fairly soon after and asked for 2 more minutes to choose food. 40 minutes later our drinks came and we ordered our food. We all placed our order but were unable to place the order for the gluten-free family member as someone else had to take that order. They came about 5 minutes later and asked if we had looked at the GF menu - which we had not been given or told about. We explained no, and he said well I'll have to check what you want against that menu. The affected family member had checked the menu and found one thing she liked, so asked for that. We were told this was not on the GF menu even though it had the option of being GF on the menu we were given. I would like to state that the person who showed us to our table was the manager, and he was the person doing the allergen taking at this time. Due to the time it took to be served and the misinformation regarding the allergen menu, we chose to leave and not eat there.
Enjoyed a lovely dinner - with really good food, beautiful flavours and generous portions.
Thank you Chitra for all your help in introducing us to unfamiliar dishes on the menu. And thank you to the team for taking our gluten free requirements in your stride!
Celiac friendly
