Not a great experience. 2 of our party of 4 are Coeliacs and we were all looking forward to our meal. Our first disappointment came when I was informed that there were no gluten free starters...the server spent some time checking the allergy sheet then consulted someone in the kitchen. My daughter had gluten free pasta which was ok...but not great. I had a GF pizza which was nice although slightly undercooked. We wanted to order aa second bottle of Pellegrino but they'd run out...it was on our bill but they agreed to remove it. All in all it was disappointing amd we'd travelled 40 miles to eat there.

My partner was given the wrong dish when she asked for gluten free pasta. She was instead given regular pasta and had almost finished her meal by the staff realised the mistake when they went to give the GF meal to another customer. She was very ill the next day as she's gluten intolerant. The staff were very apologetic and it was an honest mistake. However, if this happened to someone with a severe allergy things could have been much worse. The staff and management should perhaps review how they organise the kitchen.

Unfortunately I was given the wrong dish in this restaurant when I had asked for gluten free pasta. I was given pasta with gluten and had almost finished my meal by the time the staff has realised as they had went to give my meal to another customer. This made me quite unwell as I am gluten intolerant. Whilst the staff were very apologetic, and it was a genuine mistake a lesson must be learned as this could have been much worse had I been someone with a sever allergy.
