Cannot tell you how excited I was to have a full gluten free menu to choose from especially when I thought I was buying food for the rest of the family and having beans on toast when I got back home! All our food was delicious and the view from the bench opposite the shop wasn’t bad either!

Edit: Thank you for your detailed response. It's reassuring to hear that you do know a lot about coeliac and to know a detailed account of what measures you have in place to avoid cross contamination. Coeliac reactions are quite severe and my body has only started to return to normal again now, two weeks later, so it sucks that it happened. But I do understand the difficulty in making sure everything is completely separate and safe, especially on a busy morning rush. If I was to come back, is there anything I should have done differently to make sure everything is safe? Old review: Nice place but not very allergen-friendly. As a coeliac, it always brings me great anxiety to find places to go out to eat, but this place seemed to have a good gf reputation. Unfortunately this was not my experience. The waitress serving us seemed to be knowledgeable about allergies and when I asked if cross contamination would an issue with their gluten-free meals they assured me that since my allergy was written on the order it wouldn't be a problem. However, when my veggie breakfast came out, my toast looked suspiciously similar to everyone else's, so I asked one of the staff if it was gluten free and it wasn't. They were nice about it though, remade my meal and took it off the bill. Although in their haste to remake my meal or perhaps just out of habit for non-coeliacs who just have a gf preference, I suspect that not all the precautions were taken, perhaps they put my gf bread in the same toaster as the regular bread or something because I left the cafe feeling extremely nauseous. I hope that this was just an honest mistake, but perhaps refresher of cross-contact and food allergy safety is necessary here.

I would drive 7 hours back from Cambridge to go here again! The food was insane, the people were so friendly and it's such a cute place. The curry loaded fries are an absolute MUST. We went for lunch so could only choose from the tapas but it did not disappoint. I'm also more restricted with not being able to have gluten but they had quite a number of GF options and good lord they were amazing. 100% would go again.

Came for a quick bite at lunch, just ahead of the main kitchen closing at 15.00. Pleasantly surprised to find a very decent selection of gluten free options, and a wide ranging menu. Orders quickly taken and food arrived in good time. All delicious. Thank you!
