Second time on this trip we have eaten here and it is amazing! Great value as well - love the fish bites, homemade chips with gravy/curry sauce and cheese, and the cinnamon sugar pineapple rings to finish it off was perfect!!! Thank you so much for doing gluten free 🩷🩷🩷

Excellent range of food including a GF friendly menu. Staff were knowledgeable about changes and separate cooking requirements.

Very popular place. It was just on the outskirts of the main city area, within comfortable walking distance. Being gluten free I was impressed with the offerings available to me. Lovely vibes. Highly recommend.

GF is amazing!! thank you

Best lunch spot for coeliacs visiting Queenstown! So many fun and tasty gluten free options and they are very coeliac aware.

Mateo Winter

What a debacle! Just a couple of snacky ski bums craving a tasty gluten free tender meal after a cracking on the maunga. We love chicken, so this seemed like the perfect choice. It was not. When you think of a chicken tender you think of golden, juicy, tasty, crispy... But how wrong we were to rely on the website photos. What we received was an unseasoned, insipid, whiter than the snow tender with really no redeeming features. For an outfit that specialises in chicken, this was exceptionally bad. Only plus side to this whole shamozzle was the chips. Thank goodness Briscoes and Woolworths are close by to grab the other couple of necessities on this trip. We're not angry, we're just disappointed. Protip: Woolworths is just down the road. Grab yourself a packet of Waitoa gluten free burger fillets and some Makakihi Fries and you'll be waaaaay happier than us. Edit: old mate Owner is (again) saying it was a kids meal... Absolutely wasn't! ...not sure how long they can keep hiding behind that. Poor form to be honest. Get down to countdown - 3x the food, 10x the taste for less pesos

The best burgers in Queenstown and the gluten free bun is very good.

Tracy Gale

Fantastic food, and excellent service very knowledgeable about gluten free options for Coeliac customer.

Michelle Armstrong

Absolutely beautiful warm and welcoming restaurant with outstanding food and service! Gluten free pasta a winner. Our son has Coeliac Disease and the gluten free pizzas were the best we've had anywhere in the world so far. Ask for Matilda... super efficient, friendly and delightful.

Delicious food, great service, and they were able to accommodate for a gluten allergy!!Ordered the Julio’s corned beef carnitas hash w/out the cheese (absolutely delicious), GF eggs benny w/ streaky bacon, and a side of the potatoes. Also got an iced latte and a coffee which were nice.

We almost walked in through the service entrance but were gently redirected to the correct door by an actual service member. Without a booking, there was only bar seating available but we were pleased to be seated immediately. They have a ton of non-alcoholic and gluten free options! We enjoyed the salt and pepper squid, salmon and chicken sandwich. Definitely would have liked a seat looking out the window so be sure to get a reservation!

Moinho cafe, recently established in Queenstown’s Frankton area, is an extension of the renowned Padaria do Moinho bakery founded in Cuiabá. The Queenstown branch continues the tradition of quality artisanal baking, offering a tempting range of breads, cakes, and savory treats in a relaxed, welcoming café setting. The menu blends Brazilian and South American flavors with New Zealand café classics and caters to various dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. Portions are generous-one cheese scone was enough for two-and the cabinet food looks appealing. The staff are friendly and accommodating, and the cappuccino we had was well made. The café’s casual, family-friendly atmosphere makes it a great spot for breakfast, brunch, or a relaxed lunch. Our experience was enhanced by the clean premises and reasonable prices. Moinho cafe stands out for its fresh, quality baked goods, friendly service, and unique Brazilian flair, making it a welcome addition to Queenstown’s café scene.

We were staying at the Ramada and ended up having two dinners and a breakfast here - was so good. Great service and very accomodating to my partner who is gluten free. Truffle fries were amazing

Soff testorelli

Absolutely 10 points for EVERYTHING! My partner said they have the best Calamari in town, I had the provoleta that tasted like home! Also the mushrooms super yummy. A lot of oprtions Gluten free. They were happey to bring a side of Gluten free bread for my provoleta so that my partner could have regular bread. For dessert please try the Crema Catalana. Don't miss out this please. New regulars here maybe hey! Shout out to Calli for her hospitality and for looking after my dietries. Thank you chef! Thank you team!

Camila Nunes

I loved my experience at The Cow, the food is unbelievably good! The service is perfect! Leticia, who assisted us was extremely helpful, super friendly and kind! She was also really patient and careful with all my food restrictions. The vegan and gluten-free pizza is the best in Queenstown!!!! And my husband loved the garlic bread, the best he’s ever had!!! We will definitely be back! ❤️

We were a group of 16 here. Great kids options and GF options - not extensive range but the food was good.

Naomi Thomas

Amazing food! Super cozy and lush atmosphere. And lovely staff. Highly recommend the saga wat. Also there’s lots of gluten free options available

Jo Foss

We booked our wedding dinner here for our small group of 8. Upon our arrival we were very warmly welcomed and given 2 glasses of bubbles on the house. The service was 5 star with a special mention to our server Harriett, who really went above and beyond to give us a run down on the menu and recommendations and was able to very confidently cater for our gluten and dairy free guests. The food was outstanding and everyone left full and happy. Harriet even helped us get a group photo out the front by the water, which turned out to be one of the best group shots of the trip. Thanks again and we will be recommending you to anyone we know heading to Queenstown! Duncan and Jo

Honestly, worst experience in not just Queenstown but New Zealand overall. First it took forever to get seated and the Resturant was not busy at all. This should’ve been the first red flag. We ordered rose and a mocktail + water. They brought us a random bottle of white wine which we of course sent back and had to ask again for water. I ordered the bean dip as an appetizer & a Gerard Burger with chips (all gluten free). Come to find out the chips are not gf, even though it says it available option on menu. Then i was served a chicken burger which took forever to come, sent it back for the Gerard beef burger that I ordered. Finally while waiting for my burger the bean dip came. Literally it was like beans from a can that no one cared to heat up and the chips were so stale. I ate a few since we had been there for so long by then I was starving. Finally the Berger came! The waitress came to ask how everything was and we kindly gave feedback about the experience. Mostly the horrible bean dip, she said she would have the kitchen check the batch of chips. As we were checking out, they never comped the bean dip even though we clearly did not eat 97% of it. Just horrible experience, the standards are high in this area and they failed miserably. Don’t go here!

I tried the gluten-free potato pizza from Sundays recently, and unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience. The taste was quite strange and not very enjoyable, and it didn't seem to be cooked properly. As you can see from the picture, it looked terrible, which is why I ended up throwing it away. Definitely not recommended. Regarding vegetarian reply- I am referring specifically to the gluten-free and vegetarian options for pizza, not in general. I only tried the pizza shown in the attached picture and provided a review for that pizza. In your menu, there are only six pizza options listed and the staff advised me that they could make a Margherita or a potato pizza, so I chose the potato option. I understand that you have other vegetarian options available.

Came here for an early dinner with my husband. Friendly staff, though service was interesting, in that we got an appetizer to share (cauliflower bites), but no plate to split them. So we ate over napkins. No biggie. Then our mains arrived. He had the fish & chips & I had the Caesar salad. Not terrible, but also not as good as we’d hoped. Standard Pub food, I suppose. I had high hopes for this place, based on the fish tacos reviews (ended up not getting them because I didn’t realize they weren’t gluten-free. ). Likely had we stuck with the plan, we would not have been so disappointed – but as it stands, we both walked away from our meals, feeling that the food was not quite worth the price. That said, it looked like it’s probably a pretty fun bar. Simply not my choice for food.
