Owen was fantastic with us. After recently being diagnosed with Coeliac disease he assured me of all the safety protocols that are in place at Pho, and took the time to go through the menu with me. The food was lovely! First time eating at Pho, and certainly won’t be the last!!

Fabulous gluten free fish and chips. Kids size was enough for us at lunchtime. Sat on harbourside yo eat. Lovely atmosphere. Great busker. One of my favourite places

Amazing that they have gluten free, but does feel like they've lost a bit of their spark. Been going down a couple of times a year, and seems to be less impressive food. Food was nothing special, which is a shame considering the cost. Also, when asked how everything was, I said the soft drinks needed checking as the lemonade was just soda, they did apologise but didn't change the drink (id only had a sip) and nothing was taken off the bill. Perhaps I should have been clearer on my expectations. That being said it's a shame it wasn't quite up to scratch as it used to be a real gem. I have been to the Salt & Malt in Bristol centre and this had a much better feel and different menu options.

Gluten free pies and amazing ones. Coeliac safe though always a risk of cross contamination. Amazing pies and fun place. Rather noisy when full otherwise highly recommend.

Spencer Payne

Tldr: Some of the friendliest staff ive ever met, amazing gluten free options, one of the most beautiful atmospheres, 10/10! I dont usually eat alone at restaurants so was a bit nervous but every member of staff who spoke to me was so kind and so thoughtful and made my experience so nice. Gluten free menu had a lot of options but i went for the butchers brunch i think it was called?? absolutely AMAZING. There is a lot of space for sitting so it doesnt feel super cramped and absolutely gorgeous interior. i had such a lovely time and will definitely be returning! cant recommend enough :]] I did also go in around 1pm and it was fairly quiet, so i imagine if you go later in the day itd be busier so if you want to go when its quiet id suggest 1pm or earlier!!

Wonderful gluten free pizza, wonderful and very kind staff and owners, worth a culinary stop

Impero Lounge is right on the High Street in the heart of Portishead, perfect to stop in before a jaunt around the harbour. They’re on a corner with huge floor-to-ceiling windows (that open right up) wrapped around two sides, flooding the vaulted interiors with light. There’s a lovely terrace out the front too, perfect for watching the world go by. They’ve a fantastic range of food and drinks (including full kids, gluten-free and vegan menus) served in this relaxed, welcoming space. Look out for their mural celebrating Portishead’s old power station and lighthouse. Which is apt, as they’re a bit of a powerhouse and a shining beacon for the hungry and thirsty people of Portishead.

I’m not a bad review type person, but I think it’s necessary. I’ve seen a lot of reviews on here about how nice and lovely the food was and I feel like they’re either being super generous, or they’re a bit delusional and probably have very disposable income. The few I’ve seen regarding the price for what is given in my opinion are most honest. I bought a “Buddha bowl” which I asked for a poached egg with (for an extra £1.25), came to just under £15, to which when it came was practically an empty plate, full of Tescos finest hummus… mmm yaaay! literally, just a whole bottom layer of pure hummous.. from probably Tesco, (you can tell) with “roasted aubergine & squash” sprinkled on the top, giving the illusion there’s something to dive into. No, it’s definitely just hummus… just Tesco bought hummous. A whole yummy bowl of it, To Then be given ONE SLICE of (coop’s fossilised gluten free bread) CUT INTO THREE FINGER slices. WHAT? Absolute piss take. “Buddha bowl” you know,imagine?.. If Buddha ate that, he’d be Ghandi. But wait, There’s more.. When I asked for just a little more bread to go with my mousse, I was told it would cost an extra £2.15 .. oh nice. If I wanted another rationed dry toasted finger slice of gluten free co cop branded crackers, I should pay for it. Sweet. Gotcha.. Maybe I should’ve got another egg, it’s cheaper. Then in all the madness, besides my 3 thin slices of flavourless avocado, was the juicy “red cabbage salad” about literally 7 shreds (I’m not exaggerating at all), of cabbage and a chunk of core. Right there, I saw it, with my eyes, not even hiding. Just outrageous. What do they do measure it in milligrams? I told the girls behind the counter and we agreed on the audacity, however no refund was offered. I guess I’d gone too far to ask for money back once I dived into the lake of deception. Assuming I was getting a mouthful of aubergine. She noted my complaint, reasoned & said she’d mention it to the head chef, who I think should rather consider converting to a shakes and smoothies lounge, because thankfully the smoothie was one of the best I’ve had in a long time. Service for me was decent, nice girls, accommodating energy and the sofa was comfy.. but food prices/quality deserves a slap.

Trinity Coles

Always an amazing range of gluten free options. Staff are always friendly

Sophie Roe

Great gluten free menu, and cocktails were 5 star, the staff were also lovely⭐️

Sandy Cooper

Went for brunch. Nice food and gluten free options. Friendly staff and great service. Asked for water and was provided it within a minute, which is the first time this has happened in a long time, I normally have to ask again in restaurants. Good breakfast offer. We'll certainly be going back. Lovely outside seating area.

Lenki Szpojnarowicz

delicious pasta for £5 and really good gluten free pasta and garlic flatbread. Lovely service from Priscilla so kind, friendly and smiley!

Kiera N

Really enjoyed my visit to Cafe Neapolitan, I ordered a cooked breakfast along with a cup of tea. The potion size was big but they did not flag on the effort put in. The bread was hand made, which you could had the option of being gluten free. Also a choice of eggs, I went for scrambled which has added cooked onion which I though was a really nice touch. The cafe had a cosy atmosphere and the staff were friendly, I would defiantly recommend.

Robert Webb

Anna Maria was our server and we received excellent service. As a coeliac I was pleasantly surprised at the number and quality of items on the menu.

Irene Hernández López

Always great, I’ve coming for 5 years for their gluten free buns! 100% recommended, the best lunch deal :)

My Gluten Free Guide

Excellent food, cocktails and atmosphere. I've eaten here three times now and have enjoyed every visit. I am gluten free (coeliac) and the menu has been naturally gluten free when I've visited, making it a wonderful relaxing experience and no worrying about cross contamination. It's so nice to be able to share dishes with friends, thank you Condesa!

Jainika Nakum

We had a lovely evening here last night with beautiful views and the sun out. The waiters were really helpful and friendly. The food was delicious and really well presented - we liked everything we picked. I particularly enjoyed the octopus, Thai chicken and prawns, having said that it was all really nice. Perfect for my friend with gluten intolerance too as all dishes we had we were gf. Can't wait to visit again!

Mike Sheldon

Consistent excellent. Trinity and Kate were amazing. It was my mums 84th birthday and wow did she get spoiled and trinity was so kind, engaging and helpful. I’ve eaten here a few times and the food is consistently excellent. Im also coeliac and know I’m safe.

Phil Crisp

Gluten-free fish and chips in batter was nice enough and my partners and daughters meals were good too. Prices were very good 😁

Victoria Forrester

Delicious brunch, gluten free options too. Interesting building and friendly staff

gorators

Excellent coeliac management and the food is absolutely delicious. Good contamination awareness and prepared food safely. Most of kids menu is gf which I almost never see. Really appreciate it, amazing place.

Carole Norman

Amazing burgers and gluten free fully catered for. The lunch deal is especially good value.

Tony Green

Seren Dixon

Fantastic food, coffee and cake. Even had good gluten free options too. Totally worth the wait to get a seat!

Kate Lansdell

Fantastic meal and lovely service. Full menu of Gluten free pasta and pizza Thank you

Sharon Osborne

Fabulous meal by river on terrace great selection for gluten free customers

Nicki Stalley

A great Sunday roast! I have coeliac disease so eating out can be a challenge sometimes. However, not here. As soon as we walked in and explained I was coeliac the person that met us went straight into the kitchen to find out what I could/couldn't have. Then went our waitress took our order she explained that her brother had coeliac disease which was so reassuring and she also explained that the kitchen staff were cleaning everything down. Brilliant service, thank you! The food was lovely, would absolutely recommend

Angela

Had an amazing meal here yesterday and so did 3 members of our family who were with me. I am dairy and gluten free and they were so helpful accommodating me. Delicious food and very attentative service. We will be back sometime.

Kamila

I visited The Lock Up on Sunday for a roast, and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had! This was my third time at the restaurant, and it was by far the best experience yet. I came this time as a Coeliac and was absolutely over the moon with the gluten-free options available—both for mains and desserts. I was especially thrilled to have a Yorkshire pudding and cauliflower cheese, which are such rare treats for Coeliacs. I had the beef, which was cooked perfectly—tender and not at all chewy. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. I really appreciated the care they took. Highly recommend—especially if you're looking for a great gluten-free Sunday roast!

Flossie Palmer

My partner and I came to Pasture to celebrate his birthday and it was our first time eating here. Honestly, it was such a brilliant experience! The staff are so attentive, kind and knowledgable; I think our server was called Sam (apologies if I got that wrong) and he spent time talking us through the menu, portion sizes and took extra care with my order as I am Coeliac, even double checking the ingredients of different sauces with the kitchen so I knew for certain what I could and couldn’t eat. I was even given a separate menu with all the dishes I could eat due to my dietary restrictions, which made the ordering process so simple and stress free. The food was absolutely delicious and the tenderstem broccoli alongside the steak fillet to share was a real highlight. A great selection of craft beers on guest and draught too. Thank you for making my partner’s evening so special by bringing out a surprise birthday ice cream with a candle! We will definitely be spending more special occasions at Pasture in the future.

I was looking for somewhere nice to have a gluten free lunch on my own whilst I was visiting Bristol for the day. I discovered Kibou on a blog and wow - great experience. I haven't had deep fried chicken in years years due to my gf diet - I had some as a starter with siracha mayo and it was absolutely delicious! I followed that up with a chicken teriyaki. The service was great - friendly, down to earth and unpretentious, whilst sat in surroundings that felt upmarket. Would recommend.

Maya Kitay

Staff told us the cannoli were gluten free - I’m allergic to gluten - so he got me one. It wasn’t at all gluten free (made with wheat pastry). Fortunately I suspected this before tasting it - I returned it and asked staff to check again. This could have caused a serious allergic reaction - I fear for those with more serious allergies to nuts or milk that could be life threatening. The staff didn’t make much effort to recognise this - while they refunded it, all they said was “oh, sorry”. Please be careful - staff were approachable and it was sorted quickly, but if you have allergies, check the ingredients yourself.

Liz Byrne

Really enjoyable meal. Lots of gluten-free options (items come labelled). Lovely atmosphere. First visit. Will return.

Sara Treffert

Fab for gluten free! —GF Sunday roasts and GF fish and chips are not to be missed. All but 1 option for the roasts were gluten free and all the traditional sides are GF (they make a gf Yorkshire) so you don’t miss out on anything! Save room for pudding too. Staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. A fave spot in Clifton and the regular menu also had a lot of gfo if you go another day. Do book ahead to make sure you get a table

Sandy Cooper

Lovely meal to celebrate our Golden Wedding Anniversary. Thank you for your care and gluten free provision.

THE BEST BREAKFAST PLACE IN BRISTOL!! I could rave about this place all day long and write a 5000 word essay about how good this place is. From the most friendliest staff that are genuinely happy to be there (which is rare in hospitality) and always finding a way to struck up a positive conversation, to the atmosphere the place has. Nectar house has such an incredible atmosphere so cosy and hippie dippie I LOVE IT. Now to the best part of all……. THE FOOD OMG THE FOOD. The breakfast slays so hard it always come out Micheline Star level. If I was sentenced to death my last meal would be here without a second thought. Big portions and variety of foods. So accommodating to all diets: vegan, veggie, meat, gluten free. Oh and the owner is so wonderful. Polish owner of the year awards, so friendly and always makes sure to say hello to the regulars. This place is sick and twisted because I fight the urge to go there and spend all my money everyday.

Louise Kolman

Have always wanted to visit this restaurant and it did not disappoint!! The food was absolutely delicious, I had a lamb mint sausage with mash and a side if carrots and parsnips and omg I could eat that again and again! The dessert was delicious too (we had a gluten free cheesecake) HIGHLY recommend!

LewisLovesLife

Amazing staff, so friendly. Great for gluten free and amazing surprise birthday cake for nanas 70th birthday

mark chamberlain

I've been going to this place for years mainly for lunch, but recently went for Sunday Breakfast, all five of us had Different dishes and everything was great, you'd be hard pressed to find a better quality Full English and for my Son who's Gluten intolerant they concocted and amazing roast Pork with corn Bread and lots of tasty trimmings, good service, really friendly Staff and big enough to easily accommodate a party of six...... Coffees decent too......

jose miguel azcarate

Amaizing gluten free poke!!!

Martin Gorringe

Surely the last place in the world not to offer gluten free pizza. The portion sizes are tiny, my friends 'steak' was a few small slices that you couldn't have made a sandwich with. Spanish tortilla was very bland and a really small few slices for the money. Will not return, all our large party were stunned by the appalling value for money.

Vince Vaughn

Amazing service, super friendly and welcoming. Very kind to children. Gluten-free pizza was great. And what a good location. Thank you!!! We will be back.

Ali Pearce

Very disappointed. I had phoned on Friday to reserve a table for Saturday and specifically asked if they could have a gluten free pizza base (I’m Coeliac) I was told that one would definitely be available. It also states on the menu gf pizza base available. When we got there no table had been reserved although it wasn’t busy. They did not have any gf pizza bases. They said the burgers were gf but they didn’t have any gf buns!! My reservation was in the diary but not the gf pizza request. At this point we left without having anything to eat. Since the menu has been changed it’s nowhere near as good as it was. May go in for a coffee but won’t be eating there again 😔
