Really great cafe for gluten free options. I’m not 100% sure where the name came from as there really wasn’t many books? But overall the atmosphere was quirky and cosy. I ordered the bhaji sandwich on the online ordering option. There was no option to make it gluten free apart from the notes section but the waitress was happy to swap it and it came out with a GF bun, the food itself was really tasty

After a bit of a look around the charity shops, we ended up taking a chance with The Peacock Lounge, after our usual go-to place shut down a while back. Didn't even realise it was there, as we don't tend to go down that part of the shopping centre. But I'm happy we did, because what a place! It has a super cosy feel to it, with a great interior (must be fabulous in the evening!) The staff seemed really pleasant on arrival, and we were able to get a table more or less straight away. They had some good gluten-free options on the menu, and have others too (but understandably, they need prior warning for this.) I decided to have their "Terry's Chocolate Orange" hot chocolate complete with cream, marshmallows and pieces of Terry's which was amazing, especially served in a mason jar (super creamy!) I didn't have any food, but had a slice of their carrot and walnut/pistachio cake and it was divine! Mum had the gluten-free toast with jam and a pot of the white pear and ginger tea, which were given a thumbs up too! Only thing was (and this is in no way a negative) I had to go to the counter to ask about my cake, as it hasn't come to the table with everything else. However, I understand that the place had become quite busy and the staff were trying to sort other orders out too. The gentleman was really good about it, and cut a slice for me there and then. Altogether, it came to a little over £14, which I thought was well worth it. Would love to return again in the future, to try some of the food. Amazing place with a fabulous atmosphere, good food and lovely staff! Definitely a thumbs up for The Peacock Lounge!

Had been for dinner with family with one of us being gluten free, the food was bit of a hit and miss. The gluten free main course was a pasta dish chosen from the set menu , the pasta was a bit undercooked and didn't really gel with the sauce in which it was cooked. I had the chicken milanese which was essentially a breaded slice of chicken with tomatoes on the side and bowl of salad with cheese , the chicken was too crispy and dry, didn't really enjoy it and wouldn't recommend . The dishes which I liked were the mushroom soup which was really good and the tiramisu dessert. We went on a Tuesday so essentially the restaurant was deserted being mid week , probably would have had a better vibe on the weekend.

A wonderful hidden gem of a cafe/bar. Licensed, is only open until mid afternoon most days. The food is freshly prepared, with Gluten free, Vegan options. Worth seeking out as is hidden on a small industrial estate. Superb coffee and friendly staff. If you are served by Esme you will be well looked after. Enjoy. M
