Frankie & Benny's - Bristol Airport

I know airport food is always going to be overpriced and naff - but even my low expectation wasn't low enough. We waited for the uninterested waitresses to seat us, and told them we needed gluten free for my coeliac partner. They said they'd give us 10 minutes to look at the menu and make our choice and they'd be back. Upon their return we asked for a pasta dish, to be told that they'd run out of gluten free pasta - which would have been useful information to provide us with before we looked at the menu! We went for gluten free pizzas in the end, and they had clearly been made on frozen bases and chucked under the grill, because the toppings were melted but the dough was cold and undercooked. The uninterested waitresses didn't ask us how the food was, I think they knew. Took a while to get anyone's attention to pay as well. Inexplicably naff! The gluten free pizza (whilst crap and cold) didn't trigger my coeliac partner, so it's safe at least!

Had a few hours to spare before my flight and thought I would give f&b a go! My sister is gluten free and was struggling to find a GF friendly spot, but here was perfect! Our server was Issy who was absolutely lovely and adjusted our orders to what we wanted, what a queen! Would definitely recommend!!

Great to find somewhere at Bristol Airport that has a reasonable number of options that can be done gluten-free including pizza, pasta and some breakfast options. Special mention to Issy who was really helpful to get me some gluten free toast and butter to take away because that's all I could face at 5am.. but next time I will be happy to eat there having failed to find any light gluten free options (rolls, sandwiches etc) at other outlets.
