Second visit disappointing. My daughter ordered a gluten free toasted sandwich and I ordered a quesadilla, both containing chicken. The chicken was extremely dry and chewy. Thought we’d found a gem after first visit but probably won’t return.

As a photographer visiting Oxford, I’m always a bit anxious about finding somewhere accommodating for my dietary needs. However, this place completely exceeded my expectations! When I mentioned I’d be back to collect my gluten-free pie to take home, the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Their kindness and attention to detail made such a difference. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the team was super friendly throughout. I can’t recommend this spot enough – it’s a true gem for anyone with allergies or simply looking for great food and service!

Had a great dinner here with my wife. Staff were really welcoming and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and portions were good. We came because it was recommended for the gluten free options. They have an extensive separate menu and handled everything with great care.

THE BEST CAKE I've ever had. It happened to be gluten-free (bonus!). It was almond, lemon, coconut cake slice. And the woman who. Served me was especially nice, friendly and helpful. Thank you!

We stopped in on a whim to see if they had any Gluten Free items and were blown away. The open face avocado spread topped with caesar chicken was outstanding, as were their fresh berries and yogurt. What a great spot.

Delicious food but unfriendly and rude staff particularly to babies/parents. Gluten free bread available for toasties and great selection of drinks. Great accessible toilet, high chair available and cosy setting. Unfortunately we found the staff particularly unfriendly and unhelpful towards us and our babies. Despite our efforts ie packing up some of our buggies and of course making sure the babies weren't disturbing other people and also spending plenty of money with them, what seemed to be the supervising staff member rudely asked us to remove our cups and crockery from a table (out of baby reach) that wasn't being used when there were at least 3 other tables free. Was not provided with an alternative place to put things, just rudely asked to move because they would lose customers. Even after we explained that we would happily remove if anyone came in, they continued to treat us as a bother and unwelcome customers for the rest of our stay. If you are a sleep deprived mama or dad, would recommend steering clear of the agg you would get here. A shameful lack of goodwill.

Incredibly tasty, fresh food for amazing value! A 'small' box is £6.50 and is absolutely STUFFED with goodness - I had puy lentils, mixed greens, falafal, green goddess topping, and mixed nuts. It was SO delicious, and all gluten free! So many gluten free and vegetarian (and vegan) options, as well as meat/fish. Highly recommend if you want nutritious, tasty food for great value 😊

There are several of these shops around. Here you go to get a takeaway sandwich, light snack or hot drink. In this particular Taylor's you can get in with a wheelchair but you can't reach the final counter to pay. However, someone will help. There is outdoor seating. The food is really good and there are lots of gluten free options.

Delightful experience, picked up some pastries for my colleagues, one who’s obsessed with pistachios, one who’s gluten free, and one who’s a chocolate lover - managed to make them all very happy. Service was brilliant, had a lovely chat with the person behind the till who gave good recommendations, and let me pick the specific pastries I wanted. The pastries are very rich, especially the lobster pistachio tail but it was incredible & huge. My other colleague reported that the Nutella cannoli is her next obsession. Very good selection even when they first opened.

The staff were lovely and very efficient. The lady with the pink sparkly glasses was so nice. The hot chocolate was different - very creamy and milky and not too chocolatey. However the gluten free brownie was incredible. Its such a cute lil pop up shop!
