St Martins Church, Bowness-on-Windermere, Windermere LA23 3DE, UK
Decided to eat here as they served gluten free fish and chips. The fish was nice but the chips were very disappointing. They were small, thin and resembled chip sticks rather than traditional chippy chips. Could only give one star for atmosphere as we were the only customers in the shop. Maybe word had got out about their unacceptable chips!

We had a wonderful experience at Trattoria. The restaurant was decorated for the Christmas season and a welcome reprieve from a long, cold days walk in the hills. The service was lovely and the pizza was out of this world! I am gluten free and to have gluten-free, handmade dough cooked in a wood fired oven with lots of cheese was superb. I also ordered the tomato and basil salad which was fresh and delicious. The portions were quite large and worth the price. I highly recommend this authentic Italian, family run restaurant.

Queens Square, Bowness-on-Windermere, Windermere LA23 3BY, UK
I came here for lunch with my friend today after seeing the positive reviews and because they had gluten free options. I ordered a gluten free kebab dish. When it arrived, I double checked if it was gluten free as the pitta looked like gluten. The waitress said she would double check. When she returned, she confirmed it was NOT gluten free. She was very apologetic and said another would come out soon. I asked if I could get some olives whilst I waited and my friend had her dish. When my dish arrived, it was disappointing. The fries had clearly been from frozen and the gluten free bread was of poor quality and didn't go with the kebab, salad or coleslaw. When we got the bill, I had been charged for the olives but they had reduced my main by 10%. All in all, I didn't complain as the staff were very apologetic. I wouldn't have minded the mistake and inattentive service had the food been good quality - especially at this price point. Would not recommend for food.
