We love Dice and slice and it's probably the only reason we haven't moved out of town. We come often to try new games all the time, never have to play the same game twice if you don't want too. The staff are always very lovely, some are really friendly and great to chat with. Food and Drinks you have a lot of options. Sometimes feel like the gluten food is sometimes a little smaller but just glad to have the option! I bring everyone I can here and you should too! They also hold events, including a monthly LGBT night with the local group!

One of the few places that actually sell freshly baked gluten free muffins. Service is usually pretty quick even when they're busy.

Absolutely fantastic customer service from the butchery. I needed some gluten free cocktail sausages for a party and rang to enquire. They kindly advised that they had frozen GF large sausages (I could make that work, so I dropped in to buy some). I didn't leave a name or any contact details but, when I arrived, not only did the gentleman remember our phone conversation but he had bothered to make GF cocktail sausages even though he had not planned to do them that day. It will make the dish I am planning so much easier to cook. I was really quite stunned by that level of customer service and just had to leave a review to say thank you so much. We had bought things from you before but, after today we shall be back much more regularly!

Genuinely the best cake I have ever eaten. I was really sad when they left London and moved to Colchester but I have even driven to Colchester to have my fix! The new shop is so beautifully decorated, perfect atmosphere and location. The cakes are amazing there are also choices of vegan, gluten free etc. Staff lovely, nice packaging. Would highly recommend. I really want to try the afternoon tea!
