Sat in a for a late lunch, ordered a gluten free pesto chicken sandwich and an iced oat chai latte. My friend got the grilled cheese with a flat white. Felt as though 15 quid was a bit expensive for my order - until the food was served! The sandwiches are massive and both my friend and I kept half for dinner. We both really enjoyed our meals! The staff were warm and welcoming, the cafe was relatively quiet for a Saturday at 12:45pm. There were a variety of cakes available as well, with a fair amount of gluten free and vegan options available. Staff clarified whether my gluten free sandwich order was due to an allergy or a preference. Overall, would recommend, especially for those with a gluten intolerance!

The billboard promise of a dairy-free, gluten-free chocolate orange torte drew me in for a sweet bite and a coffee. Was glad I stopped. Really enjoyed the ambience, the off-peak hours service was still welcoming and a few quiet moments off the busy high street. If you often feel deprived of dessert because of dairy/ gluten restrictions this one is worth it! Enjoy!

Dear Sir/ Madam, My partner and I attended your restaurant yesterday afternoon around 4pm. We had not a booking but your helpful manager found as a table. We were given menus, and couldn't see a gluten free option, so I went to the manager and he supplied one. At this point I must point out that my partner is a Celiac and is very gluton intolerant indeed. We were really pleased that you had a large extensive menu. We choose large Nachos to share, which were lovely, but we both stated they tasted like the real thing. We then had fajitas to share with steak strips. My partner had the gluten free ones, which we could see. These were lovely too. We throughly enjoyed the meal and payed the bill of £95.00. We then left but almost straight away my partner felt really sick, and really needed a toilet quickly as her stomach had reacted to gluten. We managed to get to a toilet, but she was extremely ill and hence we had to get home and so our day was ruined. We know she was giving gluten by her reaction and we think your restaurant gave us the wrong Nachos. This is a serious matter as a person whom is extremely gluten intolerant can be extremely ill or in some cases worse. I am informing you of this matter because it needs addressing in case it happens again.

Nothing else but a 5 star review. Firstly, atmosphere is 10/10, cats are absolutely adorable. Secondly, there is quite a variety of food, we ordered fudgy choco-coconut tart, loaded flapjack and some waffles and we were absolutely amazed by how good they are, bare in mind that they really care about gluten-free and quality of food. Last but not least, service, absolutely immaculate, I cannot recommend this place more, it's a must if you go to Canterbury. Also please read the house rules because they really really care about the cute cats, and if you go there, you should too!

Found this lovely little cafe by accident but so glad we did! Had the halloumi sandwich (gluten free) and my friend had the feta and beetroot salad. Both dishes looked and tasted amazing. We then had the caramel apple pie (also gluten free). You have to have it warm as the caramel starts to melt into the apple and combined with a dusting of cinnamon it is absolutely divine!!

Great gluten free options! The pub's menu is misleading. It doesn't show or emphasize that they have great gluten free options. They can make most of their food options gluten free for you. They have gluten free bread and buns. They are also lovely people and try to work with you to find a meal you can eat and be happy with. Their parsnip soup is to die for. Great gluten free burgers! Their chips is not GF but they can make you sauté potato instead. Their torte is a yummy dessert. Just an overall nice pub with friendly staff and great homemade pub food.

Great cafe in Canterbury where the pancakes are gluten free and they have so many vegan options. Staff are always friendly and the food is great. We often take the grandkids as the pancakes are fluffy, a really good portion size, great flavour choices & good value for money. Definitely go here if you’re in Canterbury

A lovely little place not far from the cathedral entrance. Coffee was really good, decor is lovely with lots of cute/cool decorations and objects which together work really well and most importantly for myself was that they offered gluten free bread for all of their sandwiches and toasted sandwiches. It was a really good gluten free bread too, held together well which if you know gluten free bread isn’t often the case. I will be back on my next Canterbury trip!

Had a lovely time here. If you’ve got an allergy, I’d recommend just asking for what doesn’t contain your allergy, the menu doesn’t state allergens. The allergens sheet doesn’t make sense. However, the did have a wonderful coffee cake that was gluten-free!! Although the service is a little slow, it is worth it!!
