I
Adapted gluten-free breakfasts, without contamination. They give you gluten-free bread if you want and the menu says what does NOT contain gluten. Celiacs, you can have breakfast in peace, my celiac wife was not contaminated.
F
We had the full Scottish breakfast and the gluten free breakfast, both very tasty. Very good service, friendly staff Be aware that the gluten free breakfast is cooked in the same frier as the gluten containing ingredients so not suitable for everyone.
S
We eat here every time we visit Edinburgh, I have the NGCI but I was made aware that they only have 1 fryer. please confirm this as your menu says "Gluten Free" but I am not sure you can be. I wasn't ill personally and enjoyed the food as always and I will keep coming back but please clarify how your Gluten free "NGCI" is cooked.
