I had a lovely dinner here tonight and was so pleased to see that almost everything on the menu was coeliac friendly, or could be made to be! It’s so nice being able to go out and have so many gluten free options, and you wouldn’t be able to tell that they were gluten free at all. I will definitely return.

We held a drinks event here for our year-level school parents and it was perfect. The team are so friendly and easy to deal with. The pizzas were delicious and they were able to cater to all of our dietary requirements - gluten free, vegetarian and vegan. The atmosphere is wonderful and the wine selections are excellent. A really fun night. Highly recommend if you’re planning an event.
We have frequented here over the last 20 years and 3 times in the last month. The food is always great and the waiting staff are excellent, friendly and professional. I am a coeliac and they know which dishes can or can’t be gluten free. It is a long standing local gem,
I made an impromptu brunch appointment with my friends today, and found that City Brunch has to be booked in advance. I searched Shanklin cafe decisively. The restaurant's extensive menu features classic Australian cuisine, as well as options for vegetarians and gluten-free eaters. I didn't order one of their signature dishes - "Baked Eggs Shakshuka" hahaha. But I ordered the following delicacies:
🍄 Portobello Mushroom
Two thick layers of fried mushrooms, with golden and crispy skin, and they burst with juice when you cut them open! Served with poached eggs, spinach and secret sauce, it is rich in layers and tastes crispy and crispy like fried pork chops.
🍨 Nutella Shake
This cup is really too sweet! A must-try if you like sweets! Five balls full of ice cream, rich in Nutella flavor, every bite is a sweet hit, even the children who love ice cream can't finish it, it's really fierce!
🍗 Deluxe Chicken Waffle
This dish is very common in Australian Brunch restaurants, and Shanklin’s is also good. The magical combination of fried chicken + waffles, paired with refreshing vegetables, sweet but not greasy at all, the waffles are crispy, and the fried chicken is super tender, an unexpected perfect combination!

I also ordered sandwiches and lamb burgers, both of which were solid and not a surprise, totally worth a try!
Had a mid week lunch here with friends. Cafe style eating areas spread throughout the shop. Interesting Mediterranean menu and good food. Gluten free options. Coffee also good. Reasonable prices. Service ok. Parking difficult to find and time limited.
