As a celiac was astounded by the service I received.I didn’t know how to order,so when I asked how I was blown away with the customer service I received with a big smile she talked the ordering process through with me with the best attitude.Instead of the attitude of can’t you read dumbass ,which you receive at countless shops.The spud festival I ordered was awesome as was the girl’s attitude.If you are a celiac or gluten intolerant get down to spud bar you won’t be disappointed
Had a stunning lunch today. The food and service was amazing. Definitely recommend this place. As coeliac it’s great to go and not have to worry about what I can safely eat. They carry the coeliac association accreditation and everything I ate was delicious.
We went halves in each dish and couldn’t eat it all.
We both ordered spicy vegan noodle soup with bean curd today, which I was allowed to have gluten free!! Seriously the bowl was filled with so many veggies and tofu/noodles and so flavourful. Good value we were full, comforting store with friendly staff
Absolutely blown away! For what started as an impulse visit ended in black sheep becoming one of the best eating experiences I've ever had. Menu is well rounded with plenty of gluten free and vegan options,service is absolutely lovely,huge shoutout to Rose for lovely table service and suggestions,hats off to everyone involved
Beautiful food that caters to everyone. We had a vegetarian Coeliac who couldn't believe how many choices she had and how amazing the flavours were. Definitely recommend.
Absolutely incredible experience at Frankie Bar & Eatery! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was warm, stylish, and welcoming. What really stood out, though, was how thoughtfully they catered to dietary requirements and allergies, something so many places overlook. The staff were genuinely attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure our group felt completely safe and accommodated. Whether you're gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, or have specific allergies, they handle it with absolute professionalism and care.
And let’s talk about the cocktails… WOW!!! Every drink was a masterpiece. Beautifully presented, perfectly balanced, and incredibly creative. You can tell the bartenders here take pride in what they do. We tried a few different ones and were blown away each time (the mango coconut daiquiri and limoncello raspberry martini were next level!!)
Highly recommend Frankie for anyone looking for a place that combines amazing food and drinks with genuine hospitality. We’ll absolutely be back!
It's a friendly pub atmosphere with excellent food and good value.
There are plenty of coeliac and vegetarian options.
We and our grandchildren love it...
We visit Geelong often from Melbourne and have had the pleasure of recently dining on two occasions at this restaurant. The food was delicious with generous portions. The two staff members who served us were Hoang and Thu Thao and they were wonderful. They helped my mother in law up the steps and won us over with their service and level of knowledge with regards to the menu and happily explained the dishes and in particular the Gluten free items for one of our party. All staff including the owner were lovely. The two young staff were engaging and it was a pleasure to chat with them. Great food and value for money. We will be back on our next visit.
Went with friends for a birthday dinner and loved it. The menu catered well for the gluten member of our party, and offers a lot of veg options if required. Feels like more authentic Mexican than westernised versions.
Friendly staff and a great drinks menu ensured a great night.
Highly recommend the Californian burrito, it's incredible!
One of my fav places to eat, especially with so many coeliac friendly options. Great place, great food, amazing service, I love this place. From the home cooking vibes, the exceptional flavour, and the incredible value, this is my favourite and go to for Indian in Geelong.
My daughter is a coeliac and often eats at La Porchetta. Last night, she ordered gluten-free pasta. When it was brought to the table, she asked, "This is gluten free"? She was told "yes"
A few hours later, she started to feel sick. By 12.30am, she was rolling around in terrible pain. She didn't go to work today. She rang La Porchetta today to let them know, and they couldn't have cared less.
Very reckless.
Very disappointing.
Everything was delicious, especially the lamb shoulder. We had the feed me option for a work lunch and there was so much food leftover. I am also coeliac, and they had plenty of gluten free options. Loved everything.
OMG!!!!! Yes.
Can't believe I have walked past this place like 80 times and have never made the effort to go here before.
Food is amazing, so much flavour, so delicious.
Gluten free not an issue at all.
I was worried when I saw nothing on the menu saying GF or that they can do dietary requirements, but turns out they have an amazing understanding of coeliac disease and pretty much 80% of the menu is GF and the stuff that isn't they can alter accordingly.
I think there was like just one thing they couldn't do and that is because it had been marinated for 24 hours prior.
Anyway, I will definitely be going back and from now on I will be highly recommending it to everyone I know.
The food was delicious and very flavorful. We took my dad for his birthday and got a private room which was very quiet and made the conversation between 15 people much easier. My father lived in Singapore for 15 years and is quite picky but he enjoyed the food. I was pleasantly surprised that they could do most of the dishes gluten free! Polite, patient, and helpful server.
After reading menu it read gluten free but when ordering we were told Cross Contamination Likely in kitchen.
This was misleading Gluten free means gluten free. Should have stated glow gluten. Sadly couldn’t try food. Was upset
Fab food, cocktails and venue! Friendly and attentive service. The crab lasagne was phenomenal and I'm sure will bring us back time and again. Great gluten free options too!
We absolutely LOVED our dining experience at Felix last Saturday. I have coeliac disease and they catered the delicious set menu to my dietaries.
The service was impeccable, they were so knowledgeable about wine recommendations and food explanations.
The venue itself is stunning and we can’t wait to go back.
Really enjoyed my dinner here, great food, they have a separate gluten free menu with lots of choices, chicken and cashews, pad thai, pad satay, etc Only one gluten free curry which was the jungle curry and very hot, not to my taste but the others enjoyed it. I'm not sure why there's no other curries on the gluten free list, it's not that hard to make a curry gluten free. Great friendly service. It is a small restaurant so good to book ahead.
Some of the best Thai food I've ever had, service was fantastic and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. We have a 6 year old picky eater who is celiac and needed gluten free options, he loved the gluten free pad Thai. Highly recommended and we will be back
My partner and I stumbled across this little delight on a walk one year ago when they had just opened and it’s one of our favourite places for coffee because they know how to make a consistently excellent coffee. The staff are just lovely, always smiling and very accommodating to dietary requirements. The toasties are amazing, huge portions no skimping on the toppings but my favourite thing is their gluten free banana bread, toasted with butter! Delicious. They offer lots of different drinks and such a nice touch the tiny teddy on top of your cup. Today was their first birthday and offered free coffee all day, any size. So generous in this cost of living crisis. Get yourself over there for a coffee won’t be disappointed.
Omg delicious burgers, the gluten free buns are best we have ever had! The pulled pork burger is a hit with the kids too. We also love the drinks in the cans with the Pokémon characters?! You can’t order them online, so we have to get them in store when we pick up our order!!
Definitely a new local fav!!! Clean and yummy. The cafe is cute too if you feel like eating in!
Gluten free (Celiac/coeliac) friendly menu. One of the staff is celiac for peace of mind in regard to kitchen prep care. Dedicated deep fryer means you can enjoy crisp chips with your burger etc. and it was a very nice high quality burger I was served at that!
One of the worst restaurant of the year. Waiting for a pizza are gluten-free pizza. That did not arrived on the table waiting for 1hour 30 minutes. The waitress said it's coming five times but still no pizza. The kid's food came and also my pizza but so I waited for my wife pizza to come so we eat together very disappointed. The Coke tasted disgusting and the lemon line bitters did not taste like lemon lime bitters did not finish the drink. . The toilet is a hazard disgusting dryer need to turn the power on with wet hands from the switch.. So we decided to leave without the pizza and destroyed our date tonight Disappointed a zero a negative stars. And it's overpriced. Will not come back . I shouldn't even paid for the kids meals and drinks . There goes my $85 dollars down the drain.
10/10 gluten free burger option. Would definitely come back here! They were able to cater to
my dietary needs. The owner and staff were absolutely lovely.
I had a gluten free ham and cheese toasty. My husband had a toasty too. They were really yummy. The service from the ladies working was really lovely. Excellent shop for a grab and go. And then the coffee!! So so nice. Well done ladies. You’ve got a great little cafe.
Came here for lunch based on previous Google reviews. Very popular but very organised. Choice of all day breakfast or lunch menu. Quick service and generous serves of well prepared food. Gluten free options. Really enjoyed our meals. So good we came back again the next day!
Delicious pizzas! Pizzas are always hot & fresh, the bases aren’t too thick or too thin & the toppings are fresh. Halal & low gluten options available. I have ordered a few times for work staff lunches, ordering 20+ pizzas and have never had an issue with our big order being cold, missing items or getting the wrong pizzas. The whole team gets excited when I tell them I’ve ordered Butter Crust Pizzas for staff lunch. The owner is lovely, polite and friendly. Highly recommend!
You'd get hard-pressed to find a better lunch meal deal for $29!
The food choice, quality, presentation and service is first class.
Plenty of options for gluten-free and vegetarian too.
We also had dinner about a month ago and the meal choices are larger and more expensive but still sensational.
Be back soon
