Great cafe! My husband had delicious French toast and I had Irish beef burger with Gluten Free bread and fries. Good GF options and they were very accommodating!
Great gluten-free pizza.
But, but, but: I was really unsure about the desserts. I don't drink alcohol on principle and asked which dessert was gluten-free. When I pointed out that the cake they'd recommended to me had layers of gin, they said it was jam. And? It's still alcoholic. Honestly, that shattered my trust in the staff.
PS: The espresso was great.
We had 3 people in our party and only one had a good food experience. Unfortunately, the 2.people that ordered gluten free pasta dishes were served extremely boring dishes with no flavor and absolutely no attempt at presentation. The gluten free pasta dishes looked like something from a children's menu - no exaggeration, I promise. My dish, Penne Regine All’Arrabbiata, was tasty and well presented. I enjoyed it! Service was attentive. Atmosphere was ok. Tables were close together, somewhat unnecessarily since there was plenty of space in the restaurant. We will not be returning.
I brought my family to this restaurant as I go there a few times a year because two of us are celiac and it isn’t safe in most places to eat out. I usually eat here because of my celiac disease as I was confidant that it was celiac friendly and didn’t have to worry about cross contamination and they cater for celiacs but the last time I was there I was told that the chips , wings and chicken was not gluten free because they were cooked in the same oil and fryer as the rest of the gluten food. I found this very disappointing and can’t understand why this has changed. I will not be returning as it is unsafe as a celiac to eat here. Very disappointed

Our waitress Kacey was really nice! I'm coeliac and she was amazing and made sure I knew exactly what I could have. She was also really nice to my little sister and very understanding of my gran.
As a Brazilian, this is a must-go-to spot. They have plenty of delicious and authentic food. Tapiocas are great and have proper legitimate ingredients. Their coffees are insanely good, and if you have a sweet tooth like me, you have to try their paçoca hot chocolate – trust me on this one.
They’re constantly busy but once you’re sat it’s very quick and easy to order. They have multiple vegan and gluten, dairy, allergen free options. Paradise!
This is one of the few spots in Dublin you can find a casadinho and their pão de queijo is the best in town (according to me and all my friends). Their meals are also spectacular, cuscuz, feijoada, you name it!
I do think €3 is a bit much for a singular brigadeiro or pão de queijo as the ingredients are cheap and they’re very quick and easy to make. Not an unusual thing in Temple Bar area and other Brazilian spots as well though. Alas, I keep coming back for the quality.
Great location and a very unique setting to enjoy a few drinks and some good food. The waiter could not have been nicer. He went to check with the chef as our daughter is a celiac.
Food took a little while as it was busy. Chicken burger & prawns were good. Friendly staff, would recommend!
Perfect place for lunch/dinner. The staff is very friendly and willing to answer any questions. They adapt all their dishes to people with celiac disease and intolerances. The food is spectacular. 10/10
We visited at about 12.30pm. Ordered a cake, a scone and a gluten free cake. GF cake not available, so left with the only other GF cake they had. Scones also gone. 'Cakes' were the tiniest I've ever seen. An expensive and underwhelming experience not to be repeated.

Unfortunately, a disappointing experience.
The initial welcome was friendly, but there was zero flexibility when it came to ordering. I asked for an Irish Breakfast with gluten-free bread and to substitute the two puddings (which I can’t eat), but was told I could only remove them — no substitutions allowed, and I would still have to pay for the full dish. When I asked why, the only explanation was “the chef doesn’t want to,” which felt more like a whim than a serious policy. I decided to leave, as I believe this kind of attitude is unfair — especially in a time when food allergies and intolerances should be taken seriously.
Called in advance to ask if they had any gluten free vegetarian options. Super helpful on the phone and at the restaurant. And a really delicious burger.

Went here today for lunch. The service was brilliant. The food was great but if you are ceoliac or gluten intolerant I would not recommend. Ordered the gluten free chicken tenders and gluten free loaded spice fried which were delicious but as soon as I left got symptoms of being glutened.
Had a lovely dinner at Nutbutter. Nice atmosphere, great service- I love that it’s a little more hands-off, gives it an especially relaxed vibe. Myself and my friend both had different rice bowls and both were absolutely delicious. Appreciated the ability to customise the protein option as a vegetarian, and being gluten free I was still replete with options. I was absolutely bowled over to be able to have anything I wanted on the dessert menu! Shared the chocolate mousse and miso panna cotta and both were out of this world. Wish I’d discovered Nutbutter earlier into this trip to Dublin or I would have been back to try a few more- as it is it’s high up on my list for next time!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Highly Recommend!
I went to the Mad Yolks for breakfast with my family and enjoyed the experience! The atmosphere was bustling but I imagine if you came earlier in the morning (we got there around 10:45) you could find a quieter spot. I got one of the breakfast sandwiches and it was delicious! I also got an iced matcha and it was one of the best matcha lattes I’ve ever had.
Two members of my party have celiac disease and the staff were very knowledgeable, and their gf food looked just as good as mine.
Had such a great experience! Food and service were amazing. I’m a coeliac and they had gluten free garlic bread and crème brûlée as a substitute which were both great. Will definitely be back.
Was there yesterday with a friend and her 6 year old daughter who is allergic to wheat and dairy. Properly allergic! I only ordered a starter of brushetta, my friend ordered a pasta dish and for her daughter, a gluten free, dairy free pizza. She was explicit about this. The server seemed aloof and unfriendly, like he hated being there and we were bothering him. The place was not busy, only 3 other tables in use at the time of ordering.
After over half an hour, the pasta and pizza came but my food was nowhere to be seen. We had a different server now but it seemed the first guy didn't give my order to the kitchen. When my friend looked at her daughters pizza, it was clear it was not vegan cheese. We called the new server over and he could confirm that it was not vegan cheese so a new pizza was ordered. No apology given. He just took it away. I was still waiting on my food.
My food eventually came, 45 mins after ordering. At this stage, my friend had finished her food but her daughter was still waiting for her pizza.
Not only shockingly slow, disorganised service, the mess up with the pizza could have had serious health implications for my friends daughter.
Even when I went to pay, the original server was at the til and he was rude and dismissive and walked away from me. The second server noticed this and took over and I paid the bill. No tip but they also took nothing off the bill for the serious issue of the pizza. No gesture of good will to take the drinks off or anything.
This is my second time here and both occasions service was terrible. Will not be returning. A shame as the food was nice.
Great atmosphere, easy and safe gluten free options too. Special thanks to Alex for ensuring everything ran smoothly and for providing exceptional hospitality. Highly recommend!
The Café was great! The owner (I think??) was just lovely.
I was very excited to find that not only does he have gluten-free bread, but he makes it himself.
We got pancakes for our Little, and we both got BLTs (mine GF) and the leak & potato soup.
The food was soooo good. Café is small, but it packs a punch with the decor, music, and menu.
Our waitresses was very sweet as well. I would absolutely recommend this great little spot.
The vegan gluten-free pancakes I had here on 18 Feb 2025 were one of the most delicious meals I have ever had! I have been dreaming about them ever since: juicy pears and berries over pancakes that were soft on the inside and slightly crunchy on the outside. Sheer perfection! The photo doesn't do them justice. Come eat here if you can. I would be back in a heartbeat if I weren't on the other side of the Atlantic.
Amazing place in town with vegan and gluten free options !!
Food is delicious and the owners are so nice!
I’ve been here a few times and every single one has been incredible…
Excellent margaritas too !!!
The manager takes his time to explain everything thoroughly about gluten-free products and lactose-free products.
The food is tasty: you can choose between pita bread, wraps and burgers.
Chicken and veggie.
You choose your extras and your sauce.
Tasty food, friendly and helpful employees and not too expensive.
Nici is a great waitress who immediately asked about allergies, always kept an eye on us and was friendly. The gluten-free burger (there is a special gluten-free menu) tasted incredibly delicious. Fresh ingredients and prepared to perfection. Definitely coming back
The place is so cute and friendly! The service was wonderful but the food was just ok. As mentioned below:
Latte & Cappuccino: 7/10
Pancakes: 6/10
Shakshouka: 8/10
The pancakes were gluten free and grainy and not very sweet. They were also really thick which made it difficult for flavor to come through. The Shakshouka was the standout with strong flavors and a very Mediterranean taste. The bread was really strongly paired. I feel like it could have been enhanced with more eggs or a more diverse flavor profile. The drinks were good, but could be warmer on a chilly day.
Weekend away in Ireland and this place is definitely one place to eat, the steaks was amazing, I had the Picanha steak and that was probably the best steak I’ve ever had, the sweet potato wedges was good too, I have a gluten allergy and the lady was very helpful and even asked as the crab tostada didn’t state GF but luckily for me they was. Thank you for a great night and meal
We ordered Glazed Sticky Chicken Salad and Gluten Free French Toast and it was just amazing, one of the bests brunch we’ve had in Ireland. We’ll come back for sure 🤩
Went for lunch with my pal and the two of us had a great meal. I'm gluten free and have been twice before with family, always have a great experience. I would really recommend to coeliacs because the staff are really knowledgeable and the gluten free food is top notch too. Great for breakfast, lunch, or whatever you're having yourself!
Service was amazing, so attentive and knowledgeable about allergens. I’m coeliac and was able to eat nearly everything on the menu, most of the pastas can be made gluten free and they have a dedicated gf fryer!
