I ordered a whole gluten free cherry bakewell cake from Bunty's for my mum's birthday. The whole process was very straightforward. I placed my order by email and had a very quick response. I asked to collect the cake as early as possible and staff came in early to accommodate me. The cake was amazing- nobody would have known it was gluten free- it was very light, soft and not sickly either. We are still enjoying it on day 4 - still tastes fresh. Fabulous service and delicious cake - would definitely recommend.

We were served by Jacob and Anna this morning. We both had a large latte and my husband had a toasted teacakes. I asked for and got a gluten free scone with butter. Jacob was very knowledgeable about Coeliac disease as his Mum has it so made sure himself that my gluten free scone was perfect for me. Will definitely go there again next time we are in Lincoln.

The Cross Keys really surprised us. Popped in last minute, the team fitted us in, and looked after us. Very knowledgeable about gluten free. Food was superb. Couldn't fault it, or the service. This pub is now on our select list. Highly recommended. Thanks for a great meal.

Found this cafe on Google Maps searching for gluten free options and I was so glad we did. My gluten free bread with smashed avocado was lush. Coffee was so good. Sweet potato fries 💯and my husband enjoyed his hot dog too. Staff were lovely, couldn’t do enough for us. Reasonable price too, and great vibe. Will be back. 💖

Best shish I've had in ages, meat or not. The staff were very chill and professional, the atmosphere was relaxed but clean and busy. Great marriage between a friendly gathering place and a bustling little world of tasty ethics. They were super helpful with the whole gluten issue, too. I'm so mad I didn't find this place 8 years ago! Not even vegan but I'll be going back. (And yes, they're dog friendly if you behave yourself)

Went to Lawson's for a reunion dinner with some old friends. They did us proud! We were a group of 20 and they were very accommodating and organised; no problems ordering in advance (from the full menu, not just from a limited menu or set menus, unlike many places when catering for a large group); drinks in the bar area before the meal; we were then seated on two large tables in part of the upstairs area - not quite a private room, though it felt much like it. Staff were excellent at the table and the bar (not easy when you're a large group), as was the food (including vegan and gluten free options). Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. We do this at some time every year in various places and this has to be one of the best places we've been to, so a big thank you to all involved.

After ordering 8 individual afternoon tea boxes for my sister in laws hen do it did not disappoint. Everyone was so happy with them! Everything was freshly made on the day and tasted beautiful. The cake and sandwich selection was amazing and the owners went above and beyond for people that had intolerances. Two of the girls were gluten free and said the cakes were the best they had had - especially the brownies! I would highly recommend this place, it was beautifully presented and staff were amazing! Great price too for the amazing quality which is always a winner!!!

Absolutely incredible food once again. Takeaway service is a lifesaver. We love eating in this little gem of a place and can't wait to get back in again. It's not just the food that makes this place fantastic, it's the fact they remember you individually aswell. Always a pleasure to speak to and being coeliac they always go out there way to cater for me. Thankyou 😊.
