Yummy food and great service. Choose your base, crepes, American Pancakes, omelette, savoury or sweet, gluten free ,vegan. Was able to choose high protein meal enabling me to stay on my eating plan whilst out. Gorgeous food and great service. Will definately be back

Elettra North Finocchi

Great for gluten-free people, plenty of options! Portions could be a bit bigger. I was still hungry after the main with a side. I also like the fact that you can see the kcal on the menu and thereby make an informed choice!

It's in a great location, and my duck curry was superb. Coffee was good too. Photo is of my wife's gluten free cheese burger, which was the best she's had in quite some time.

'Bacon roll and a flat white, please.' 'Is that a sandwich or a brioche?' 'Umm,' looks at menu, which actually says bacon *butty*. 'Sandwich, please.' 'Brown or white bread?' 'Brown.' 'Gluten free?' 'No.' 'Any other allergies?' 'Is that back bacon?' 'Blue milk?' 'Full caffeine?' Me: 'Is there any tomato sauce?'

Archie Robertson

Staff were very friendly, service was very quick. But. The pie was lackluster. The crust was not good, it's apparently gluten free and seems to make a big difference. The filling was great, but didn't make up for the crust. Thick and grainy crust which kind of hid the small quantity of filling inside....

Julie Mills

Excellent gluten free range

Paul MacDonald

Came here spontaneously and was welcomed warmly and served very quickly. Karen was a very entertaining, chatty and informative server. Helped our friend with her Gluten Free options. What a treat to the company she was!

Karen Bradshaw

The food was very good and there was plenty of gluten free options for my husband who has Coeliac disease. Amos and his team were very good.

The very handsome Alan was very attentive and helpful with my gluten free requirements, unfortunately no waffles but he did make me some lovely gf pancakes instead. My besty had a pistachio waffle which was delicious, beautiful interior with comfy seats, will definately visit again soon 😋

Vivita Blumane

Very friendly staff members. Food was lovely and lots of gluten free options, including cakes 😁

Azriel

Good gluten free & dairy options.

JENNTY AMATULLI

We had chicken fajitas. The chicken was a little bit overcooked but overall it wasn’t bad. My Husband ordered a gluten-free beer. It was the best he’s had on our travels. I think it was called the stinking hen. The best part of the whole experience was the Romanian waiter/owner not quite sure. He was entertaining the whole time taught us a lot of about the Romanian culture and general world history 👍good food and much laughter What else can you ask for while dining?

Michael McFarlane

John McDowell

Great food, friendly staff and reasonably priced too. Lots of gluten free options, all clearly labelled.

Don’t expect Michelin Star quality but for TGI Fridays this has to be one of the best branches of TGI Fridays I have ever been to,this branch is the perfect example of how the TGI Fridays experience should be and how a TGI Fridays restaurant should be run. It is clear to see that this branch has robust management. This branch offers the proper experience that this chain is renowned for. The service was fabulous,Lydia and the manager were very polite and we were served quickly. The manager was very accommodating with my order! The atmosphere is lovely and also the decor is classic timeless American decor. The Toilets were not the best I have seen at TGI Fridays but not the worst. The food was absolutely delicious,I am pleased that the Potato Skins are back to how they used to be. The Nachos were delicious,it had a slight kick to them but it was not overpowering at all. I liked the dips too. It was nicely presented but the portion size was a bit merge. The main was delicious too,I ordered the Classic Half Rack of Ribs which were some of the best Ribs I have ever had in the U.K. The Ribs were really tender too. The BBQ sauce was delicious too,so smoky and so delicious. The Slaw was Ok too. Despite the outstanding quality of the Ribs,I think that 21 pounds is a bit steep in terms of value but I would not object to ordering it again. The Bacon and Cheese Fries were delicious,having the BBQ dip with the Ribs really added flavour to the Chips because I just dipped them in. They have a lovely array of gluten free options too,I would like to see the Fridays Sesame Chicken Strips as a gluten free option. Everything was so beautifully presented. We decided to visit this specific TGI branch in Southampton because of easier access. If I found myself in Southampton I would definitely dine here again and I would recommend this restaurant if you are hungry in Southampton. TGI Fridays is the perfect end to a happy day out. Also there are 3 hotels practically on site too and I would recommend you dine here if you are staying at the hotels.

Amazing gluten free options! The staff and kitchen are very knowledgable about cross contamination and have procedures in place for this! ❤️

peter Dimaiolo

fantastic service/ food, and plenty of delicious Gluten Free options across the entire menu

Grace Drodge

Lovely food and staff. Ran out of gluten free Yorkshire puddings but the staff made a special effort and made me two! It was very much appreciated as I know dietary requirements can be a pain in the arse. Been here twice, would definitely recommend.

Lindsay H

Great food, safe for gluten free diners with clear easy-to-access allergen guidance. Tasty cocktails - we didn't realise there was a 2 4 1, bonus! Service friendly and welcoming from Tabs and Francesco

Aoife Stroud

Had an amazing meal with my husband, food was delicious and loads of gluten free options available! Was absolutely amazing!

Alan Webb

Pre-theatre dinner, really good staff, front of house and chef who came out to chat, great food. Gluten free? No problem. All done in time for arrival at Mayflower

Lorena Nichifor

Amazing restaurant, very nice staff, they offered me gluten free options quickly and excellent quality food. Brilliant Chef. Highly recommended.

Kat Little

Been multiple times before with my daughter, and she thoroughly enjoys it. Great range of craft activities and pottery to paint. Lovely end result for the pottery too after it goes in the kiln...I can't understand why they have so many items that customers don't return to collect! Lovely helpful staff, especially Lisa of course. 5 star effort in ensuring she caters for coeliacs too. You can tell the staff enjoy working at the crafty bug.

Steve Armstrong

Very good value fresh Portuguese food. Could deal with gluten and dairy allergies with no problem. Friendly knowledgeable staff. We had a great lunch here. Recommended

Tony Harvey

Walking through the door was an indication of what was going to follow. Simply great reception from the staff and the lovely fish in the aquarium. We walked through a beautiful decorative restaurant to our table, and the menus appeared on the table. My wife asked for a Gluten Free choice menu and could not believe the choice. Every care had been made to accommodate her needs as a person who has Celiac disease. Myself, I have been very impressed by the presentation and flavour and the value for money of the experience we enjoyed. Thank you to everyone and we hope to return soon.

Janet Stallard

Jules was a fabulous server, patient and polite! 100% coming again! Great for vegans and Gluten free people!

Paul Curtis

Really good food and service. Also good for gluten free options.

Tara Cavell

Love love love this place! It is our must do, after watching a movie. The food is always outstanding, and service is always friendly and extremely helpful. I can't have gluten, so they give me my burger with all the extra in a takeaway box!! Soooo much food it is difficult to finish, but that's not a problem because I can just take it home with me!

Tammy Storrow

Lovely meal at Wagamama at West quay. Glad to see they had a Gluten Free Menu and staff were accomodating. A waiter could take my drinks menu but I had to wait for the manager to come and take my food order but there wasn't much of a wait. Food was really nice, prawns were particularly good!

amber currid

Chef Huw and the team are fantastic. I came in with a couple friends, one who is gluten intolerant, and they were very accommodating to the dietary restriction. The live blues music they had playing that night were amazing, adding a lovely ambiance to the night. I got a halloumi burger, which I would definitely recommend.

I recently visited Ceno during a busy evening, and I must say the experience was excellent. Despite the high volume of guests, the service was smooth, efficient, and attentive. The cleanliness of the restaurant stood out, with the staff maintaining a spotless environment even during the rush. The highlight of my meal was the Sticky Lamb Salad. The lamb was perfectly cooked, with a rich, delicious blend of sweet and spicy flavors. It’s a dish I’d highly recommend to anyone looking for something unique and full of taste and a perfect gluten free dish that you would not find on any other menu. I’d also like to give special praise to the manager, a lady with blonde hair, who was exceptionally welcoming and professional. She ensured everything ran seamlessly, making the evening feel personalized and enjoyable. Her attention to detail was impressive, adding an extra touch to the overall dining experience. The background music was soft and relaxing, which I greatly appreciated as I’m not a fan of loud music when dining out. The calming tunes made the atmosphere even more enjoyable and added to the relaxed ambiance. I also inquired about booking my birthday at Ceno, and it seems like the perfect place for a special occasion. The combination of excellent food, efficient service, and a peaceful atmosphere makes it an ideal choice for a gathering. I highly recommend Ceno for anyone seeking a well-rounded and enjoyable dining experience!

Jenny Thwaites

What a great find. Couldn't fault the excellent thoughtful service. The very lovely Stella was super helpful in helping with gluten free options for me and my children (delicious gluten free pizza and pasta options). She even took the children off my hands for ten minutes so I could drink my coffee in peace. A revelation. We'll definitely be returning. Thanks!

Kelly Healey

Gluten free. If you are gluten free but craving pizza, try here. This is the best gluten free pizza I've had to date! Delicious. Thankyou Fireaway for making me pizza happy! The non gluten free in the household enjoyed theirs too, we also got a free gift that I couldn't eat, but was a nice gesture for the others.

Laura

Staff were very friendly and helpful with food allergies - they immediately knew whether I could or couldn't have something and what amendments could be made which is impressive. The steak was amazing, cooked perfectly and the fat just melted rather than being chewy. The burger was reported by other half as being one of the best he's had. They have seating outside which is nice in the sunshine but a bit rowdy on a busy evening so you can opt for indoors. Recommend booking in advance. The restaurant menu is slightly different to what is online - for example, they have gluten free chips!

Dave Graham

Amazing food, cooked fresh almost in front of you. Delicious flavours. Simple choices but hits the spot. Also good to see a Gluten free option!

Josh Allen

Great takeaway, and understood dietary requirements for my gluten free wife. Most dishes on the menu seem to be gluten free. Also got a free pint whilst waiting for for takeaway as arrived and not quite ready, and a free bottle of wine a Christmas present!

Piggy's is nice little café with some okay food choices, the main down side to this place, is when they cook food on the premises, if it's a hot day, you tend to get over heated. I try and sit as close to the door as I can to avoid becoming too hot but it's not always available and each time I end up not getting a door seat, I over heat, since they have no air conditioning or anything to cool the eating area. The other down sides comes with the food quality for price, I paid for some Korean chicken and rice, the chicken was great, but the sauce they had it in was more then likely microwaved, It was incredibly hot, not spicy hot, but heat hot, the sort of heat you get from a microwave. The next issue with the dish was the rice, it was over cooked and almost the consistency of mush, It's not clear how they cooked the rice, but it wasn't good. something worth mentioning about the chicken, it wasn't that hot, the sauce had all the heat but the chicken was almost stone cold, really poor. The other food options are also not that great, they have really high prices for their food but quality doesn't match it, the only thing holding this review at 3 stars is the fact they are the only restaurant/café that enable mum to get a gluten free alternative in Woolston, for that reason alone we will keep going there but if a better option comes around, you can be sure we will move on, unless the quality and comfort improves.

Irene Cubillas

They don't have gluten-free bread. They have many options for celiacs, including falafel.

Marc Lashly

Really glad we found here! Brilliant authentic food, tasty as.... Being gluten free is always an issue, limited to food I can eat, but asking if the squid starter, soft shell crab and chicken wings were ok....yes they only use cornstarch. Perfect 3 big starters arrived after 10 mins or so, lovely chrysanthemum and jasmine tea too. Masses of food beautiful flavours, loads of chilli....why on earth did we order mains? Needed to bring half the beef noodle broth and twice cooked belly pork home.... Service a little slow, very popular amongst the Asian community... An absolute pleasure to see most of the staff sitting down together to enjoy their pre evening service meal, as a chef it brings me joy to see....respect, many thanks, if I was local, I'm sure I'd be on first name terms and learning Chinese.

Helen Rowe

Lovely vibe, great coffee. Visiting as a coeliac and found there to be great gluten free knowledge from staff. I felt really reassured about the staff awareness of cross contamination/ separate fryer, and that kitchen use separate chopping boards and utensils, also that they make kitchen aware of gluten free order specially. Food was amazing, coffee was lovely- will be back

Efe Mirkan Guner

Amazing burgers! Juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The staff was super friendly, and the cozy atmosphere made it even better. Loved the variety of sauces and the gluten-free bun option. Definitely my new go-to spot for a delicious burger!

Keira Louise Greer

Love the coffee, however the man (manager i assume) is extremely rude, acts like he doesnt want to serve you and heaven forbid youd want to sit in. Miss communication between staff alot and often given wrong coffees. Shame because food and drinks are nice, although steep pricing and not fair gluten free options are double mon. Dont bother with meal "deals" either. Absolute rip off

Katie Cox

Amazing atmosphere and experience! Great for gluten free or other dietary restrictions! We loved everything we tried and we were not missing meat at all. Amazing worth ethic by the truly incredible team running this place!

Matt Whitfield

Nice place to get a wide variety of ice creams, waffles, crepes and sundaes. Will cater for a gluten free requirement confidently which is always reassuring.

bruno nigro

Nice and cozy. The owner is a good and honest man. The food is very good and authentic. Gluten free, lactose free and vegan available on request, which is perfect for me.

Stuart Reed

Nice lunch. Gluten-free menu available.

Roxanne Edmonds

I’ve been to thaikhun Southampton a few times now and I have to say the food is the best!!! I’m coeliac and they’ve always looked after me. The service is always amazing. I highly recommend experiencing this for yourself! It’s the best🥰
