Omg yes. Made my coeliac daughter’s day!

Great atmosphere and interior design. Just came here for some lunch. The food was good but I don’t think it reflected the price paid. Did not try anything off the drinks menu though the drinks at other tables did look great. I really appreciated that the whole menu was gluten free and there were plenty of vegan options.

Coeliac Friendly

I have been with a group of friends there twice, I am celiac and I have not had any problems eating, the girl who served us very kindly explained to us that everything was gluten-free. The food was delicious and in terms of quality and price it was great. I totally recommend this site.

Summer Preitz

Amazing food, great price for dietary like gluten free. Friendly and light atmosphere

Kresta Davis

Best gluten free burgers in Melbourne. Fresh, delicious and the service by Ruby was outstanding.

Marcus Julius

Service - Great hospitality by Debra, super cordial and can tell she likes being around people. Felix is quite friendly as well. Food - Used Groupon vouchers but the food was plentiful and made 4x different variations on each meal and got all correct. They do extra crispy bacon and poached eggs as an option. The gluten free option (no extra charge!), girlfriend thought they were excellent and we thought they tasted even better than our normal pancakes 🥞 Atmosphere - very clean and organised

I wanted to order a takeaway through uber for my partners birthday. We have previously eaten here before and get a gluten free base pizza. I called to ask if that was ok if I could order through the app and request if they did a gluten free base. The guy on the phone said they don’t do gluten free bases there. I responded that I’ve had them before here and he said well you can write it in the notes. I said well I’m not going to pay for pizzas if they are not going to be gluten free bases so I said will they be gluten free base and he responded no. Terrible, terrible service and did not make me feel welcome at all. Not accommodating and quite frankly rude.

Really lovely Indonesian restaurant. The staff here are so friendly, they were very patient and accommodating to all customers. The staff were knowledgeable about coeliac disease, so I felt safe eating here. Plenty of gluten free options! The food was delicious! Clean and a good atmosphere. Recommend!

I treated my sister who is gluten free to the Summer Sips high tea. We were very impressed with the attentive service that we experienced. The staff had excellent attention to detail, they made sure we had a wonderful afternoon. The cocktails were well balanced with the food selection. The biggest highlight was the GF selection, the savory pastry was delicious!

Jennifer Brennan

Highly recommended as this restaurant is in a beautiful area, staff are friendly and efficient, food is delicious and atmosphere is chilled. We had the Sweet Potato poached eggs on gluten-free toast with avacado and red chillie scrambled eggs with coffee's. It was delicious, and coffee was amazing. We were lucky with our timing and got a table straight away. However, within 5 mins, there were huge queues for the restaurant. So it's advisable to book if you can. I would still strongly advise: it's worth the wait as we had a wonderful experience. Thank you so much to the staff and restaurant.

I am so glad I found this joint! A cool space with a good atmosphere and excellent customer service. If you’ve seen any of my food posts you’ll know I’m that person with a ridiculous food intolerance that is usually not considered. Here it was! They have a separate emu that lists the items open for vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, fructose free, onion free and garlic and onion free! What? So good! My bloke and I shared a few dishes when eating out for the first time in… for ever! Delicious cabbage and pork dumplings, legit fried rice, crispy pork belly and eye fillet steak - we had sauces on the side for him to enjoy and me to avoid and both thoroughly enjoyed a top notch, tasty meal along with a couple of crisp and light rice lagers. I bought some of the yummy smelling teas to go. A first class experience. Thanks!

Andrea Artés de Arcos

Very nice food!! Super friendly staff too :) we will be back. They offer gluten free options.

luke waller

Awesome place. Food was amazing especially for the lower price tags. Really good service and atmosphere even under the pump they delivered. Good options for gluten free too. No soggy toast which has been a problem at other places. Definitely recommend

Christine Bell

Lovely food and friendly, helpful staff. They have lots of gluten free options. I had a chicken teriyaki bowl and it was really nice, fresh and tasty. Service was very fast. It's a clean, casual cafe in the CBD, highly recommend.

Phil Nicholson

Excellent spot especially for food allergies. Wife and I had an great 3 course meal that cater for low fodmap and celiac diets. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about our requirements and there recommendations of baked brie and the risotto were spot on! The low fodmap wagyu burger was one of the best I have eaten. This meal was the highlight of our stay in the city. Will definitely be back and will bring more people :-)

Elizabeth Abrahams

Omg best smashed avo and eggs on gluten free toast I’ve had in melbourne - my partner’s steak sandwich was also amazing. The coffee is delicious and the service prompt, polite and efficient - we loved again store thanks for a great dining experience

Christine Maedche

I love this café for a few reasons, first and foremost. They have the best orange Matcha that is so creative and tasty! Second is their staff is really friendly. We were waiting outside before they opened, staff at the opposite side of the laneway told us in the very abrupt way that they were open until 830 however they didn’t know that we were actually waiting for 10 square Café to open. When we came up right up to Ten Square at 8 AM, they were so friendly sat us down really quick to serve on top of all this they also have really wonderful food! They have gluten-free vegan and nut free options and I’ve had a number of things here and they’re all very delicious. Great place to come if you’re staying in the Melbourne CBD.

Daniel Stephenson

Awesome food and lovely wait staff - Clarisa is a star! Perfect balance of attentiveness. Highly recommend the gluten free pasta options and the pizzas have a lovely light base. Keep up the great work guys!

Josi Lengyel

We managed to get a table outside and were promptly attended to by wait staff. The menu is diverse with delicious options and cater for vegetarians and gluten intolerances. All meals arrived in a timely manner and each was delectable with alterations made as requested (no mayo on burger, gf bread for teriyaki mushrooms and added fried egg). Burgers looked so good there was an appetite of food envy! Would come back esp to try those.

Nia Mh

Loved the vibe of this cafe! Buzzing and mostly corporate clientele during the week. Very thick fluffy gluten free bread which is always a good surprise! Lovely presentation of the scrambled eggs which were creamy and big portion. Good selection of pastries and amazing breakfast menu. They do a pretty good matcha. Not the best I’ve had but still good. Would absolutely come back on a weekend where I have more time to sit back and enjoy.

Erik Lučivjanský

Amazing “hot dog” also possible with gluten free baguette. Very tasty

Warwick Frame

Coffee and food is great. The service is outstanding. Lots of gluten free options, the gf bread is delicious and the chef's home made jam is to die for.

Jordan Lam

Fantastic experience that was complimented by our waiter Louis who was very accommodating and friendly. Food was delicious so many options especially for my partner who can’t have gluten because it makes her blow up like a hot air balloon.

corinne macrae

Very well made chicken and avocado gluten free toastie. Delicious.

Ninja Tomato

Wonderful French breakfast for 4 this morning after we strolled in without a booking. Staff were genuine, helpful and accommodating. They quickly found us a table together. Food was great and I enjoyed my coffee 👍🏻 Good to see gluten free options on the menu and they had the lactose free milk for my coffee 😁 Happy 🙌

Azzah Albakri

The food was above and beyond our expectations. We were a big group of adults and kids. The kindness of Joseph made us dine in and try the yummy dishes. If I could give more than five stars for Joseph service I absolutely would. The gluten-free options were yummy.

Irvin De La Cruz

Fiancé and I came here and had French fries as an appetizer and seafood linguini. She enjoyed the linguini which is a big deal because she is gluten free so they had a few options that were gluten free! There was a Hispanic gentleman that was helping bring people into the restaurant that was very nice and had a nice conversation with!

Christopher O'Connor

What a great cafe! Owner and staff were super friendly, the menu is great and plenty of gluten free options. The prices are very reasonable and the portions sizes are generous. We had the smashed avo and it was delicious, my only let down was there could have been a little more feta, we only got 2 small cubes. Coffee was great too. We'll definitely come back when we're in Melbourne next

Grant James

The best gluten free bacon and egg roll I think I have ever had Great service Great coffee

Kaylee Snyman

Really nice cafe, would definitely recommend! Big range of options including vegan and gluten free. The staff were knowledgeable about being celiac safe and have a gluten free toast option which was great.

Em

Wonderful to experience such a historic tearoom in Melbourne - lovely historic decor too. The tea was very very expensive. The food did look lovely. Noticed they had gluten free treats, like pavlova, but couldn’t eat it, because they store it next to gluten filled cake - not coeliac safe! Felt rushed in a passive aggressive way by the staff to leave, understand it was busy but maybe inform customers that there’s a time slot to prevent a slight uncomfortable feeling?? The surcharge was also rather excessive, especially when the service was satisfactory.

Richard Little

Super busy so expect to wait if you haven't booked ahead. Expect very casual dining. Self service via a QR code and a robot delivering your order. The food is fabulous. Fresh, tasty and good portion sizes. A great selection for all dietary needs including Gluten free, vegetarian and vegan menus. Overall great value for money. If you like and appreciate this review please give it a like or a thumbs up so that I know what content to include in future reviews.

Jay

Great quality mini cakes. Delicious gluten free macarons. Will def order again. 10/10

Suny J’Daka

Got vegan and gluten free Ortolano panini. Incredible taste! It could’ve been a little bigger as I was still hungry after finishing it. Glad I didn’t get charged extra for vegan cheese :)

Karen Chung

Healthy fast food, they are using Olive oil instead of soy oil. They also have options for low carb or gluten free bun. Highly recommended their zucchini fries

Richard Schuhmacher

Ordered Gluten free garlic bread and Pizza Absolute garbage, if you have ever bitten into plaster board that’s what you will get Garlic bread hard as nails, for Melbourne cuisine this is beyond disappointing.

Kayla Webster

Friendly staff, amazing food, gluten free options.

Sam Jeffson

Delicious and gluten free.

Roxanne Viggiano

Oats are 💯 not Gluten Free and dangerous for coeliacs no matter how loudly you shout over the top of me oh ill informed and rude waitress of Mr Tulk. And your cafe has been reported to Melbourne City Council food safety department who informed me they issued you with an offense warning. And thanks(not) for leaving me to smear jam on my toast with my fingers for fear of getting lectured again if I asked for a knife and serviette. What an unpleasant experience.

Emma Damen

I almost didn't check it out, but I'm so glad we did. Hands down the most delicious breakfast I've had in a long time. Amazing customer service. We are both celiac, and we had plenty of choices. I can't wait to come back.

D Pan

Hmm… I told staff I have a gluten intolerance. Explained that the bench needs to be sterilised before food prep, but they didn’t understand my request. Nor what the allergy symbols on their menu meant. Still, it was tasty pizza. I’ll give them that. And I didn’t wake up in the middle of the night feeling like I have glue in my bones, so there’s that too. I guess it was gluten free after all.

emma pensini

Delicious poke bowls that are filled with a great selection of yummy fresh ingredients that are nourishing and include great gluten free options.

OldNerdSteve

Delicious food, good service, and some good gluten free options. The Benedict was fantastic, as was the house-made chai latte.

Gemma Jackson

Delicious food. Gluten free options. Amazing coffee. Great option for a quick lunch. ETA: just spent the long weekend in Melbourne and the coffee here was the best I had in Melbourne.

Gillian Bradley

My teenage daughter is both coeliac and autistic, making what she can eat and what she will eat, very tricky when eating out. Long story short, a nearby dedicated gluten free place could not accommodate a request for scrambled eggs instead of poached so we had to look elsewhere. Thankfully we found Eliana Lulu, where we were looked after beautifully, the staff were very gracious and kind, they understood the coeliac requirements and the food and coffee were great! I would not hesitate to go back here, the location is fab also! Thank you, what a great place and great team you have here.
