We came recently for a family breakfast.
Firstly we had to wait ages outside to be served with many available tables.
We arrived early as apparently this is a great place for gluten free options but there were no gluten free cakes available.
The food was nice, if a little pricey for the children's breakfast muffins. Decor was loveky and a view of the boats.
Unfortunately when we went to pay, we had to go downstairs to the till as nobody was around. Waiting at the counter to hear the owner shouting at his staff like they were worthless. We felt very sorry for them, swearing at them and shouting out "oh my God I'm gonna kill myself" in front of our young children.
When we were served the owner huffs and puffs at us as we have a voucher to pay with. This isn't a free meal, someone has already paid you money for the voucher, which we added some of our own money too aswell.
I am not normally one to comment but this was pretty shocking. A shame as the place was lovely and the waitresses seemed nice.
First time visitors while going to Helmingham hall for the lights.
Friendly service good variety of gluten free food. No hesitation in wanting to visit again.
An amazing restaurant with truly delicious food!! My partner is gluten-intolerant and around 80% of the menu is gluten free or can be made without using gluten. The burgers are delicious and I would highly recommend the wings as they were our favourite part of the meal!
Lots of Vegan and Glutenfree options. We enjoyed two meals there. The owner was very helpful in recommending food. He even brought us a plate of fried 'calamari' which was more delicious than real calamari.
The salad bowl, terryaki noodles and ratatouille gnocci were great.
Loved the 70's and 80's music in the background. Nice garden too.
The food here was really nice, however, the lion of cod came out cold which was a bit disappointing. This issue was quickly resolved which was great as they brought out a new one. The chicken supreme was amazing and the wagu burger was delicious. The chilli tiger prawns were flavourful as were the prawns with brown bread. The hoisin duck bao buns were also really nice. The desserts were alright but not so great compared to the starters and mains. The service was great and we would definitely come back! They were also really accommodating for the gluten free member in our party.
Brilliant staff very accomodating to ny grandmas gluten free needs, our server amanda went above and beyond to deliver us great service will definately be back again soon
I had gluten-free toast with vegan butter (at no extra cost!!) which was delicious. My girlfriend had the small breakfast which she said was great. Various non-dairy milk options as well! I also had the gluten-free vegan flapjack which was honestly one of the best flapjacks I’ve ever had.
The prices were good and the owners were both very friendly!!
If/when we ever come back to Ipswich, we’d definitely go back here!!
Ruth the new waitress here , went above and beyond to help me order a roast with gluten - free and lactose intolerance,the original bald headed man with the light coloured shirt on was,,, very un -helpful & just left me on my own to use the un- helpful tablet ! I am recently diagnosed so felt really embarrassed, but Ruth was caring , had great empathy and even asked the chef if he could do a G/F gravy xx bless her so x she made my dinner experience wonderful x x
Amazing food. Perfect for my wife who’s gluten, dairy and soya free. I just eat it all. Never had a bad meal. Great value for money. Plus many amazing beers to choose.
