This was an awesome place!! The waiter was super educated regarding celiac restrictions, he was able to mark everything on the menu that we could or not eat and tell us all the changes they could make. Food was excellent and overall a great experience.
On the plus side, it has a separate menu for both gluten-free and vegetarian options, which is a real plus.
The reason I'm not giving it more stars is because the waitresses aren't very friendly and the place is smoky, leaving the (unpleasant) smell on your clothes. On the other hand, the gluten-free noodle dish didn't contain any noodles, and the menu didn't mention it.
Wonderful gluten free delights served up by lovely people. The scones were magnificent and unlike any GF product we’ve tasted anywhere. Truly amazing!!! The sausage rolls were incredible - flaky pastry and beautifully seasoned sausage filling. I will be consuming numerous more of these babies in the next weeks before returning to Canada!! Don’t miss this place. It’s a gem!!
Honestly one of the best Italian meals I’ve had, we arrived and went to the bar for a gin and tonic where the bar man took the time to tell us about a local gin and the meaning behind the name of it (jawbox) -totally worth a try… and the we were seated upstairs by a lovely chatty young lady. Our server named Josh was very attentive and kind. Now. When we arrived I said I was a coeliac, and I told the girl on the way to the table, but I forgot to tell poor Josh. So when our food arrive and I suspiciously asked, the poor lad had to take it all back. I felt like a total arse, not his fault at all, it was my fault, but he took it back and had it made fresh. He then apologised and brought us a complimentary Prosecco each. What a darling. I felt awful but he was so kind.
Now let me tell you, I don’t eat Italian very often because of the gluten thing, but tonight my show was stopped and my fast was flabbered by the scallop gnocchi, honestly it was the best thing I’ve eaten in a restaurant in a decade. Staggering
Well done to the chef, the best texture was unbelievable and the mix of flavours is like nothing I’ve had before. BRAVO!!!
You honestly have made a grumpy coeliac very bloody happy. I would recommend this place to anyone who has a gluten intolerance and misses the beautiful texture of real Italian cuisine.
I will be back. Thank you Josh, you are a darling x
I cannot praise the Kraken enough. Last Saturday we brought a group of 23 girls and 4 adults to the Kraken. I had previously liaised with Becky who allowed us to pre-order. On the day Becky and her staff were amazing. The food arrived promptly and everything was delicious. Really great value too. One of our group is coeliac and her needs were catered for without any fuss. The pods were warm and cosy. Nothing was too much bother for Becky and her staff. Thoroughly recommend a visit : )
Right next door to the Ulister Hall, this chic and hip cafe is eye-catching and attention getting right from the outside glass windows to all the art walls. The service was great. The staff was friendly and the gluten-free scone, which we couldn't find anywhere else in all of Ireland, was delicious. It's baked fresh daily on-site and comes with jam and clotted cream.
Fish and Chip shop right on the harbour. Has a dedicated Gluten Free fryer and so you can get a Coeliac safe fish and chips (and many other options). Food was good and portions large. Price a bit on the high side for a chippy but worth it for my mum to be able to eat safely. Staff not the friendliest but you hardly interact with them so its not really an issue.
Very comprehensive gluten free menu, including tobacco onions, gluten free wraps, gravy, etc. They even have a dedicated fryer for gf chips and will prepare gf burgers separately to avoid cross contamination. Staff were very knowledgeable about allergens - I really appreciated it! Mulled wine was an extra delight. Would definitely be back!
I never normally leave a review for anywhere but I am obsessed with this place 😍!For so many reasons, I am coeliac and have dined breakfast lunch brunch and dinner and the options are amazing and delicious.The staff are superb so so kind so knowledgeable and lovely girl even reassured me that they use separate everything to make my meal and hoped I wouldn’t be worried ! I have been coeliac for 10 and a half years and never have I had so much reassurance from somewhere which is amazing as I feel so normal and relaxed which is rare when going out to eat with an allergy .The food is lovely so much choice which again is rare ! And it’s cheap what more could you want . This location is my favourite in Belfast as I have been to another one but the staff weren’t the same couldn’t recommend more ❤️
This is my all time favorite for gluten free breakfast in Belfast. Their vegan gluten free fry is delicious and super filling. I have gluten and dairy allergies and this place caters for both, 10/10.

Favourite place for a takeaway or a nice meal sitting in. All mains are completely gluten free and staff are very helpful. Food is excellent and is a constant for me!
The place wasn’t super packed but still busy. We ordered two gluten-free pizzas to-go and had a 30 minute wait. Manager at the time was apologetic and helpful when we went inside to ask about progress.
Pizza tasted great but was a little on the crispier side and was not cut. The cheese showed lines of scoring but the dough wasn’t cut through at all and we had to spend some amount of time cutting through the dry dough
Just beautiful!! Highly recommend! Was looking for low gluten/gluten free menu and was spoilt for choice which is rare. I had the chicken goujons and my partner (non gf) had salmon. Cooked to perfection, super tasty and a more than generous portion. Staff were super friendly and helpful. So happy we found this place whilst on holiday.
atmosphere is very nice and relaxing with low lighting, the food was phenomenal!! we ordered lots of food and shared between us and everything tasted great. they even have a variety gluten free and vegan options. service was amicable and attentive.
Very nice restaurant, top service, super tasty food! They have a separate gluten free menu with a huge selection. A ceoliac's dream.
Moderate prices, big portions. Absolute recommendation, especially for ppl in need of a gluten free diet.
Excellent burger/chicken/nachos style restaurant with plenty of parking. A full gluten-free menu, which was also delicious and served beautifully and quickly. Highly recommended.
The prices! I've choked on them since the last time we ate there a few days ago. We have eaten here before but not in about 9 months. I thought prices were ridiculous then but now they are eye watering. £4.40 for a SMALL CHIP. £5.50 for small chip with sauce. £13.60 for fish supper work no peas or tartare - those will cost your another £1.30 each and the tub of tartare is tiny! We got 2 mini fish suppers (and trust me it's mini) 1 peas and 2 tartare - £19.20. We ate here as we were on our back from Belfast and really hungry and they do gluten free. I doubt we'll eat there again. The prices just aren't justified
The best gluten free fish and chips in Northern Ireland !! Delicious and generous portions 🤩 Staff all very friendly and helpful . Will deffo return on our next visit to the area !!
We didn't have a reservation, but they still seated us on a Friday evening. The food was good- gluten free options were excellent and all clearly marked in the menu- but the real stars were the staff. They were incredibly kind, accommodating, and friendly. Service deserves more than 5 stars. We will definitely go back!
I have to have gluten free and they do the absolute best chicken goujons and chips that are suitable.
They are so attentive when dealing with the gf food. Vwry happy customer
We eat here regularly and it's always great. The staff are super friendly and the food is delicious! They also have an amazing gluten-free selection which is hard to find in most places. Excellent spot for some cocktails as well.
Was surprised at the massive menu… joking, loved it 👌🏽
Had a cheese burger (medium well done) with sweet potato fries.
My partner had a gluten cheese burger (medium done) and shoestring fries (skinny fries)
The best option was she is Gluten intolerant, so we were happy we found the gluten free bun on the option for her, so I would recommend here, and would definitely come back
Great food and friendly staff. Portions are quite generous. Gluten free options available. The empire stack was delicious, especially the tobacco onions (gluten free) on the top.
One of our party is a coeliac so getting properly prepared gluten free food is crucial. They have a very good size gluten free menu.
Highly recommend, we all ate off the gluten free menu to make sure there was no cross contamination by us and it really was very very good. Service likewise. Will definitely be back again
Staff were very nice and Co-Operative because my relative couldn't have gluten and they worked around it very well. The food was amazing and tasted great, it was a short wait for food and good selection of starters, mains and desserts. The Lantern is a great place to go and I had absolutely no complaints or issues. Highly recommend.
Went here tonight for my sister’s birthday. I managed to drop the (homemade) cake I had for upside down in the box when getting out of the car on the way in 🤦🏼♀️ The staff were amazing at helping me salvage it, we did a pretty good job imo hahaha! I can’t eat gluten and am allergic to chilli and the staff were amazing at helping, so many options and the food was unreal! Huge thank you to Padraig and Joanne for going out of their way to help me save the cake 🥰
Great coeliac options on the menu and food was lovely but slightly overpriced.
The music is way too loud, we felt like we were at a gay nightclub!! Also way too brightly lit for evening service, not very relaxing at all.
Some of the team were super lovely but our waiter didn't really look as though they wanted to be there, either new or couldn't be bothered which spoiled the meal a little.
I feel like some of the team need better training in order to offer a better experience
Staying in Newcastle and we looked for a coeliac friendly takeaway and found The Galley. Staff could not have been more helpful in making sure our order was perfect and went above and beyond. Got two gluten free goujon meals and the food was incredible, the best gluten free chippy we've ever had with lovely gravy to go with it. Could not recommend more
Excellent restaurant for any event or dining type. Such a cool and chilling vibe in this restaurant and what really exceeded my expectations was the selection of gluten free choices on the menu from all pasta to pizzas. I would simply come here again based on that! 10/10
