We took our young family out for our first restaurant meal together ever. Our table had been booked where requested (out of the way, in a booth so not to worry others) and we were greeted by staff. The wait staff were able to inform me of meals that could be adapted for dietary requirements, and they also gave the kids colouring sheets and crayons to keep them occupied. Despite my youngest getting up and spying on the kitchen staff, they still played along with her and gave her the attention she wanted 😅 The food was incredible, can highly recommend a gluten free pizza there. The base was really tasty which is hard to find. The kids meals were great too, had everything they wanted. Highly recommend going there for a family meal. Great prices too. Thanks for a really cool experience.

Unfortunately, my first experience at Iguana was quite disappointing. Different staff were saying different things regarding food with dietary requirements. After making it very clear that she was gluten free and dairy free, they brought her a dish that contained gluten. After a short while they came rushing back, but some of the food had already been eaten. A couple weeks later (today), I phoned and asked if they were doing takeaways. A staff member assured me that I could order food and takeaway (as they were fully booked). 30 minutes later, I phoned again to order and another person said that they weren’t doing takeaways. The manager wouldn’t speak with me over the phone and eventually the staff member said, “sorry there was a misunderstanding, it’s too busy to do takeaways”. It’s a shame that their ribs are actually really good, but their service is quite poor.

Awesome cafe. Not too many gluten-free cabinet options. But they have amazing gluten-free savory muffins. They also have gluten-free menu options, which include some lovely crepes

Was a great atmosphere, the service was good and the pizza was so yummy. Great wait staff kept the bubbles adequately topped up! Gluten-free was accommodated.

This place is my favorite cocktail bar. The drinks are creative, the owner and staff are incredibly friendly, and there is a selection of food that careers to the gluten free.
