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!!

Jo Chambers

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

Andrew O'Donnell

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!!

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.

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!

Jenny Leavett

My son, who is coeliac and has a very severe reaction to gluten, was told that the cakes labelled may contain gluten would be ok because they didn’t contain “active” gluten. There aren’t two versions of gluten; active and inactive. Of course, he knew not to have one but newly diagnosed coeliacs might not. We went to the gelato shop just down the hill instead and they were very knowledgeable and helpful about gluten free food.

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.

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.

Katie Walker

Kye was amazing explaining gluten free options (both coeliacs!) Ffion was brilliant making sure our drinks were topped up throughout bottomless brunch, and the atmosphere was brilliant. Would definitely return for another!

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.

Chris Draper

Had as bit of an underwhelming breakfast experience. Ordered the vegan breakfast but you can't select gluten-free options on the app so had to go to the till to amend the order. There was then a mis-up with the table number which meant the food and drinks took 20 mins to arrive. The food was tasty but it was all a bit tepid, apart from the scrambled tofu which was cold and unpleasant. I would have fed this back to the staff but at no point were we asked whether our food was OK. And for nearly £15 I didn't think it was particularly good value, one small sausage and only half a tomato! There are better places for breakfast in Bristol.

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.

Asked about allergens before we waited 20 minutes outside for a table with my heavily pregnant partner. They assured us they could cater for both gluten and sulphite allergies. After a long wait we sat down ordered two drinks. Pregnant partner ordered an alcohol free beer and staff instead served her an alcoholic one which is completely unacceptable. When we came to order, they then informed us that nothing on the menu was suitable for a sulphite allergy and we couldn’t actually eat there at all! So we waited nearly 40 minutes in total to be told we couldn’t eat at this restaurant. So we needed to go somewhere else to eat. My pregnant partner was already hungry before we waited 40 minutes to be served. Then to make matters worse, the guy serving us (who claimed to be the manager/owner) and was extremely unprofessional. Told us essentially tough luck and here is the bill for the drinks… we wouldn’t have waited 40 minutes and sat down at all if your staff didn’t tell us it was ok for our allergies. You should be hugely ashamed for your service today. We won’t be returning. Allergens should be at the forefront of your business followed by decency and customer service. Today none of these things happened. Because your response has purposefully tried to manipulate the narrative of our visit, I would like to clarify; The only bad behaviour came from the manager, he was extremely rude and abusive in how he spoke to us and the language he used. And clearly this restaurant instead of taking this feedback seriously has tried to deflect the narrative instead of taking responsibility for the failings detailed. This is not a safe place to eat if you have any allergens.

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!

Bethany

Nai my waitress was really helpful with my gluten and dairy intolerances and went above and beyond to accommodate to my needs

Jennifer Connell-Waite

Cannot fault our meal. Kids pizzas/ meal deal was perfect for our 9 year olds, pizzas were devoured and gluten free pizza was delicious!

We came here for our 1st wedding anniversary celebration. We booked well in advance and asked for a nice table for the special occasion, unfortunately this did not happen. We were on a rubbish table right next to the toilet, which was a shame. There were some lovely tables in the restaurant with nice views, romantic booths etc, however I do not believe the staff read our comment on booking and did not ensure we received a special table, which was disappointing. I wouldn’t come here again for a really special occasion, but would happily come for general dinner, or with friends etc. Food was really good and tasty, especially the salad which came with the shish (although it is slightly overpriced), food came out quickly. Staff were great and were also very good with allergies, gluten/dairy etc. The decoration was lovely and overall we had a nice time.

Amaizing gluten free poke!!!

Irene C. Cortezon

If you're gluten free, this is the place!! So many lovely options, very nice salads and very friendly staff!! :)))

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.

Hanna-Gael Darney

Delicious and nutritious. We're regulars but we do think the gluten free bowls should be cheaper as there are only 3 basic salads available.

Victoria Forrester

Fantastic place, beer is delicious and pizzas are tasty. Gluten free options available for both beer and food. Great music too. The tour was very informative and lots of beer to try! Will definitely be back next time we're in Bristol.

Felicity Biggs

Really great service from Joanna. Was really helpful when it came to gluten free options and very friendly!

William Vergonnet

Suitable for coeliac goths 🙌

Helena Sewell

Such a good meal - would 100% recommend. Also really good gluten free options - pretty much all of the menu can be made gluten free.

Alfredo

We had been told that there was quite an atmosphere, aside from the fact that it has a certain name, the place is ideal for a beer and also for eating. There is quite a variety of beer, even gluten-free

I tried their gluten free pizza after being recommended it by so many people. I have tried many of the gf pizzas available in Bristol and was really excited for this one after hearing such good things! I hope management will take my feedback in a positive manner and my suggestions on board perhaps. :) Firstly, the pizza came really fast. I ordered via a delivery app and it was with me in 15 minutes. So this aspect was great. Secondly their dough is delicious. Really tasty. They have got their recipe just right. The crusts were absolutely amazing and probably joint top with the best GF pizza crusts I’ve tried! However, the rest of the pizza (where the toppings are) was far too thick. Like double the thickness it should be, and it was not cooked properly. It was stodgy, thick and weighed a tonne in the box and in my stomach. I ate maybe two slices and then threw the rest of the pizza away, except for the crusts which I ate (they nailed this part). For a £20 pizza, this was quite upsetting. I am not someone who throws away food or wastes money if I can possibly help it. There was also way too much cheese, in my opinion. This added to the overall stodgy and heavy feeling of the pizza. It was more like a New York style, deep pan pizza and quite greasy too. Albeit I did order one with nduja so this was probably the reason for the greasiness. Again, I threw most of the greasy parts away as they were dripping with oil and I found that quite off putting. If I had known it would be a deep pan style pizza I would not have ordered since I don’t enjoy eating this much food in one go. I don’t feel good after and plus this base was so thick that it was very gummy, almost like it was raw dough. I think that most GF diners are on the more health conscious side of things. And are probably(??) hoping for a thin and crispier pizza, more like a regular pizza that is made with a wholewheat base. I’d like to suggest to management with full respect and appreciation of the craft that has gone into creating their delicious gluten free dough (I know it’s not easy), that they work to make the main base of the GF pizza much thinner. I think this would be more appealing to most customers and certainly to me. I wouldn’t try the gluten free pizza here again as it stands now but also, I know maybe my experience was a one off. And I stand by what I said about the crusts being the best I’ve tried! Joint with one GF pizza chain I tried in Madrid. I hope management take my comments with the respect with which I write them ❤️🙏🏼

Sophie Pearce

Yummy food and Amina was amazing at accommodating gluten free food as the chef is gluten free - even changed the calamari for me so I could have it!

Andy Childs

Really good range of beers including gluten-free options

Maddie

Brilliant visit! Really couldn’t fault anything! Food was tasty and well presented, huge choice of pizzas and gluten free bases lovely! We also had two sides, wings and fries, which were also gluten free. Had a large glass of wine and partner had alcohol free beer (one of 5 alcohol free options!) which went down very well. Definitely will go back and definitely recommend.

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.

Simon Luxton

Great roasts for a 60th birthday meal. Everyone loved their meals. Gluten and dairy allergy requirements were handled really well. Members of staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice coffee too.
