Zaks Mousehold Diner

Great atmosphere, there is also a local cat that comes and visit who is super friendly and lovely. They were really good about allergies and double checked each item to make sure nothing would affect my partner who is both gluten and dairy intolerant. Also huge portions! So plenty to take home at the end.

Went for lunch with family and children. Booking system easy. Interiors nice. I to be a Zaks fan but hadn't been in a while but not sure I will return. I paid £20 for cold curly fries, onion rings and a small amount of chicken on some odd tasting peppers and onions. Other family members weren't impressed with theirs. My sister who is gluten free had to pay an extra £1(!)for what looked like unchopped salad as her side instead of chips which is ridiculous. They also had no salad cream or dressing for it. Who wants to eat a dry salad?! And pay an extra £1 for it! Her chicken burger was so dry she didn't finish it. The toilets are ridiculously small! My 5 year old hit his head on the toilet roll dispenser 4 times just trying to get into the toilet. We are not large people and struggled to get into the toilet! Never had this before. We wouldn't return sadly..it used to be so good there.

Gluten free delight! (The two veggies approve too) Parking isn’t great, but there’s plenty down the road, the walk when so full was probably good for me to stretch. The gluten free bun was surprisingly as good as a normal bun, which is shocking as most available in shops are revolting. The potato products aren’t classified as gluten free due to being fried (cross contamination) but were fine like most places. Food itself everyone seemed to have loved, apart from the cheese on the macaroni isn’t very cheese tasting, but possibly could be American style cheese, and the eater of it is very picky. All in all, amazing experience and food, especially as I struggle to find places to eat. Will definitely be back.
