Café des Amis

Dear Sir/ Madam, My partner and I attended your restaurant yesterday afternoon around 4pm. We had not a booking but your helpful manager found as a table. We were given menus, and couldn't see a gluten free option, so I went to the manager and he supplied one. At this point I must point out that my partner is a Celiac and is very gluton intolerant indeed. We were really pleased that you had a large extensive menu. We choose large Nachos to share, which were lovely, but we both stated they tasted like the real thing. We then had fajitas to share with steak strips. My partner had the gluten free ones, which we could see. These were lovely too. We throughly enjoyed the meal and payed the bill of £95.00. We then left but almost straight away my partner felt really sick, and really needed a toilet quickly as her stomach had reacted to gluten. We managed to get to a toilet, but she was extremely ill and hence we had to get home and so our day was ruined. We know she was giving gluten by her reaction and we think your restaurant gave us the wrong Nachos. This is a serious matter as a person whom is extremely gluten intolerant can be extremely ill or in some cases worse. I am informing you of this matter because it needs addressing in case it happens again.

Fantastic meal again at Cafe des Amis. I am gluten free and dairy free and they were fantastic with ensuring I didn't feel like I was missing out. The food was amazing, all our table thoroughly enjoyed their food. It was delicious, perfect temperature, well presented and perfect portion size, if anything was too much food for us! But we ate it all as was so good. Normally I begrudge having to order GF and DF meals, but honestly I did not feel like I was missing out. The staff were attentive without being over bearing and had a lovely conversation about our evening and the menu. I have been visiting for years and there is many reasons for that.
