Been here twice now because they do a gluten free breakfast. We were unsure at first about having to queue to get in but now I know why there is a queue in the first place! The food is absolutely delicious, made with good quality fresh ingredients. It's difficult to find a nice gluten free breakfast so I'm glad we gave Grand Central Kitchen a try. Also the staff are lovely, nothing is too much trouble. 100% recommend. 👌
We booked for lunch as The Cosy Club offers a good variety of gluten-free food and a couple of tasty vegan dishes. I have Coeliac disease and my friend eats a vegan diet. Very good understanding of cross contamination, and the food and service was excellent.
Always go the cod pot for our fish and chips! My husband has a gluten intolerance however the chef is able to cater for us all! Has a wide range of gluten free opions and does kids boxes that the children love! Will be coming back every week as always!
Super impressed with Verdo Lounge when we visited last weekend. Excellent service & amazing food! One of the best gluten free menus I have seen & staff were so attentive and helpful. Loved it, can't wait to visit again soon!

Although they say they can’t guarantee 100% free of cross contamination, most Indian curries are naturally gluten free, so as long as you stick to those, you shouldn’t have any problems. They have gluten free options on their menu and if you tell them you’re coeliac, they will let the chef know and make sure to take extra care with prep.
Had a lovely experience here for my birthday. Food was amazing and great portion sizes. Staff super friendly and attentive. Speedy service. Great gluten free and nut free options. Will definitely visit again!
I have celiac, and I cannot overstate how incredible the staff here was. I told them I have celiac, they have a gluten free menu and everything on it is celiac safe. They brought out my coke and my dad’s beer seperately to make sure there was no cross contamination, which was just incredibly kind. The food was spectacular, one of the best meals I’ve had since I ate out. The directions on maps are kinda weird though, it’s on the second floor of the mall, not the first. Kinda tripped us up there. Solid price too, cannot recommend this place enough

Had such a good time!! Staff were lovely, really friendly and welcoming, food was delicious, wide selection and very inclusive with a vegan and gluten free menu. The cocktail menu had lots of options and the drinks were equally as delicious as the food.
It's a really nice size venue and the toilets are accessible and well maintained.
My partner is celiac and this is the only Chinese place that has done gluten free food making it able for her to enjoy a Chinese but for some strange reason they have suddenly stopped the gluten free menu which is extremely disappointing as eating Chinese food is no longer an option for a takeaway treat, we had birthday plans tonight with some family and was going to place a large order but suddenly found out they no longer do gluten free food which made things rather difficult. Such a shame as I always spoke highly of this restaurant but unfortunately this is a huge disappointment.
Honestly the best fast food service i have ever been to. The staff were very friendly and quick, there was a quiet, cosy and clean atmosphere and the food was 10/10. As someone who is gluten intolerant, it’s usually hard for me to have fast food and it be tasty and affordable but this place was spectacular. The food also contained the caloric and allergy/dietary requirement stickers on the menu which is very helpful. Definitely recommend and would come here again.
We see served by Dylan who was amazing. The gluten free lady in our group was very well catered for and looked after. We’ve had a wonderful time for siennas 18th brunch! Thank you so much Dylan!
What a great place .First time visit with 9 people. Easy to book on line .confirmed by restaurant plus reminders during the week .Arrived on time seated on time our waiter was Ryan who looked after us throughout. Great service .Food was divine, right proportions. Flavour of food was really good and very tasty .Limited vegan and gluten food .Definitely worth going. See you soon .
Best gluten free burger I've ever had, the staff were fantastic, and we were seated quickly. And the cost is pretty good too. Left full at just over £20 each including drinks.
A Truly Wonderful Dining Experience
From the moment we walked in, on the Friday evening before our Peter Kay gig, everything about our visit to Cosy Club Brindleyplace was spot on. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, the restaurant itself was spotless, spacious, and full of charm.
The service was absolutely fantastic — friendly, attentive, and nothing felt like too much trouble. The food? Genuinely outstanding. Every dish was full of flavour and beautifully presented, far beyond what we expected.
What really stood out, though, was how well they catered for my partner, who’s a refractory coeliac. The staff took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure she felt safe and comfortable. That kind of care and attention means the world.
Booking was quick and easy, and we left feeling genuinely looked after. We’ll definitely be back — it’s rare to find somewhere that gets it all so right.
Great service here with particular attention to dietary restrictions- gluten free. Kids menu was good value and we enjoyed the new honey chicken. It was a little fatty in places and the gyoza could have been cooked a little more. Really attentive staff who looked after us throughout and made sure we had a nice table and were happy with everything.
Fast turnaround on freshly cooked food and lots of options. Would recommend for families needing gluten and non-gluten containing options.
Lovely birthday meal. Staff made us very welcome and we luckily got a table overlooking the lake as we’d requested. Jess, our waitress, was friendly and helpful and made sure my husband’s meal was gluten free. Delicious meal.
Early Bird Bakery is hands down one of the best spots in Kings Heath!
As someone who’s always on the hunt for great gluten-free options, I was blown away by their selection. It’s not just a token “one or two GF items” kind of place; they genuinely go the extra mile to make sure there are plenty of delicious choices.
I ordered some special cakes for Christmas, and they were beyond incredible—beautifully decorated, moist, and full of flavor.
But it’s not just the food that makes this place special—it’s the people. The staff are genuinely lovely, always happy to help, and clearly passionate about what they do. It’s one of those rare places where you feel like more than just a customer—you feel like part of a little bakery-loving family.
Excellent friendly service, when I advised one of our party was gluten free they knew exactly what do to do and which menus and allergen info we needed, food was very nice, gluten free pizza base was pretty good, not the best we’ve had but far from the worse. Our server OliviaG was on it, attentive and friendly, we would eat here again.
I was served by Karhys who was very kind and handled my need to eat gluten-free with great professionalism.
There is a separate, entirely gluten-free menu with an interesting choice of starters, main courses and desserts. Unfortunately, for now, there is only one vegan option in the gluten-free main courses; the raisukaree with tofu is really very good!
Celebrated mine and my husbands birthday here last night. Honestly cannot fault the place, it really is as good as the reviews say. I’m gluten free and have never been catered for so well. Thank you!
Amazing food, the hot crab starter was amazing, it was an explosion of flavour and the pork was cooked to perfection. It amazing to have to much gluten free choice too
Was hoping for Gluten free options, driving out of my way for it, but unfortunately they've stopped doing it. It is still displayed on their menu signage though. Food was otherwise good, just a bit of a letdown in that regard as I had travelled for it.
**fantastic! **At last a UK restaurant that offers something close to my US favourite 'in n out burger
Freshly cooked, full of flavour, gluten free if you order protein wrap or bowl style. Great staff. I will not walk past Five Guys again!
Please be careful if you are a coeliac. I ordered a gluten free takeaway sandwich which I clocked it had crispy onions in, took it back to ask if it was a gluten free and was told that it wasn’t and was offered a refund (hence 2 stars instead of 1). Really gutted as gluten free options seemed exciting, but can’t risk coming here again.
Visited Coffee Tales in the Jewellery Quarter yesterday while visiting Birmingham. We had the gluten free hazelnut cake and a jacket potato with cheese and beans. We have been in the UK for 3 weeks now and this was the best jacket potato I have had since visiting! SOO good! The gluten free hazelnut cake was amazing, I really liked the Nutella frosting! Plus the portions are huge, definitely good value for your money!
Good food and lots of gluten free options. Starter was hotter than the supposedly fiery chicken curry but enjoyable.
Drinks could be more chilled but worth a visit, not too busy.
Food and service is always excellent - thanks to Ananya today). Our dog loves the outdoor space and we appreciate the heaters that keep it toasty. Tried the gluten free chocolate brownie which was delicious.
Dee served us at the Birmingham Bullring branch and really made our night. She was attentive, professional, friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We dined with a coeliac at the table and she was extremely averse with the menu and all of the dietary requirements for our friend. She helped us and literally was the reason we would love to come back :)
The restaurant was very busy, therefore loud, and as a result the atmosphere score is down. The service was really friendly, but when we first arrived (17:00) it didn't seem like there was many staff. This improved by the time we left, and the service did also.
Irrespective of that, the food was actually really good. Both of us are gluten-free and both our meals were delicious.
First time trying Tamatanga honestly it did not disappoint the Thali was amazing so delicious the food was hot and very good quality. It was a bit chaotic as it was a Saturday but the service and standard of food was top quality! Very good if you are vegan/ gluten free lots of selection. A really great place and good value for your money would definitely be coming back here. The service and staff were friendly and helpful too.

We love The Ivy! It's become a date night staple. We are a queer interracial BIPOC couple; I'm from The States and my partner is local. We always feel so welcome here and so well cared for. The drinks are always on point - beautiful and delicious. Ask the bartenders for recommendations! We are pescatarian, dairy -free and gluten-free. They work really hard to meet dietary needs with tasty substitutes. We have enjoyed the Afternoon Tea here a few times. Looking forward to sharing this place with out of town friends.
More gluten free and vegan dishes please!
Jowell is such a customer orientated manager, very kind and cares so much about people you can tell. He made our meal so much better and works so hard running around everywhere helping people.
Thanks a bunch
We looked for somewhere to have lunch today whilst in the jewellery quarter and the reviews were good. Service was excellent from everyone we encountered especially Kelly,our server. I was a little emotional when I arrived and she was a sweetheart going above and beyond one her approach to me.
Good menu and good gluten free choices. I had the pork belly (small plate) which was so delicious and no fat with fries and my husband had the Schnitzel Bagel with fries. Excellent quality, taste and service. We had a cranberry juice and a beer and the bill came to around £46.
Toilets very clean and service excellent. The interior is also beautiful.Will definitely be back.
