Edit: Thank you for your detailed response. It's reassuring to hear that you do know a lot about coeliac and to know a detailed account of what measures you have in place to avoid cross contamination. Coeliac reactions are quite severe and my body has only started to return to normal again now, two weeks later, so it sucks that it happened. But I do understand the difficulty in making sure everything is completely separate and safe, especially on a busy morning rush. If I was to come back, is there anything I should have done differently to make sure everything is safe? Old review: Nice place but not very allergen-friendly. As a coeliac, it always brings me great anxiety to find places to go out to eat, but this place seemed to have a good gf reputation. Unfortunately this was not my experience. The waitress serving us seemed to be knowledgeable about allergies and when I asked if cross contamination would an issue with their gluten-free meals they assured me that since my allergy was written on the order it wouldn't be a problem. However, when my veggie breakfast came out, my toast looked suspiciously similar to everyone else's, so I asked one of the staff if it was gluten free and it wasn't. They were nice about it though, remade my meal and took it off the bill. Although in their haste to remake my meal or perhaps just out of habit for non-coeliacs who just have a gf preference, I suspect that not all the precautions were taken, perhaps they put my gf bread in the same toaster as the regular bread or something because I left the cafe feeling extremely nauseous. I hope that this was just an honest mistake, but perhaps refresher of cross-contact and food allergy safety is necessary here.

Came here for a busy New Year’s Day brunch and that staff were rushed off their feet but absolutely brilliant! Caters to a vegetarian and gluten free diets with lots of savoury and sweet options. Delicious coffee and food, cosy vibes. Highly recommend!

We visited The Honey Pot a couple of days ago. I’m coeliac and they have a fantastic range of the gluten free food. I had the gf cream tea (be rude not to!) and had a takeaway gf lemon sponge cake. Absolutely delicious!! My husband had a crab sandwich (not gf) and really enjoyed it. I wish I was there longer to try more of their wonderful menu!
