Lovely menu with loads of Gf options.

Philip Beattie

Very good gf menu, prepared separately for intolerances

RAKESH BHIMJIYANI

What a gem👍. The pizzas are amazing. We only stoped as my wife is a vegetarian & gluten intolerant. So happy yo find this place. Four out of six would normally have meat pizzas but we were all super satisfied ❤️

Marcela Maturana

Very nice and fresh food, I had a lovely gluten/soy free and vegeterian option.

Julia Mitra

Very good food and atmosphere, a bit overpriced but also a great location. Had quite a few vegetarian options, as well as gluten free buns and pizza bases - the gluten free pizza I had was decent quality.

Mike Alsford

Really nice venue for a chilled meal out. Good food and a wide range of gluten free options. Our server Katarina was fantastic, very welcoming and attentive.

Very tasty food and lots of gluten free options. Portions are not the largest, certainly not the cheapest, but worth the money. Service was very nice. Restaurant is unfriendly. The smoked BBQ burgers are particularly recommended. Fries too weak for my taste and not crispy enough, but they are only side dishes, so it's better to order one more main course.

Jackie Rees

Lovely lunch from the 3 course fixed price menu. Excellent choice, delicious food and great service from Nis. Gluten free options available.

Kim Tonkin

We had the £10 fish and chips and it was absolutely amazing as always. I have a gluten intolerance and the batter on my fish is the best I have ever tasted. The alcohol free gin was very nice

James Aczel

Excellent French food in a great location opposite the Cathedral. Very good gluten-free menu. Service is friendly and helpful, but there can be a wait for orders to be taken at times. Depending on where you're sitting, the restaurant can get noisy.

We randomly chose to dining at Herbie’s because I was looking up the best gluten-free restaurants to eat in Exeter. We were visiting and I have coeliac disease. Herbie’s came up so we made a reservation went out for an early evening stroll before dinner. Just to make sure it was ok - we walked by and it was full and looked adorable. Like a cool, casual but characterful uni restaurant that actually serves healthy food. Well … we weren’t disappointed. The food and service were lovely! We had the cauliflower & balsamic drizzle starter which was delicious. For mains - nachos with their 3 bean chilli (my only complaint is trying to sell the chili as a special separately when it’s always already made for the nachos. BUT they didn’t try to hide it……. Im just questioning how it can be a special when it’s made for the nachos daily? Also had their Buddha bowl and an orange wine which is rarity. We love Herbies! Highly recommend if you’re visiting Exeter and are veggie, vegan or gluten free! Everyone working there was lovely as well.

Ryan Burgwin

Gluten free food ordered. Tasted great and service was fantastic. Highly recommend

Dan Hanley

Terrible experience, service was awful. We ordered gluten free as I have an allergy. The food then came out sandwiched in two massive bits of bread which they didn’t even replace. We also found two massive black hairs if our food which was disgusting. We were then charged £130 for 3 people. Absolute rip off. Avoid

Andy Heron

Great gluten free pizza! Best I’ve had.

Lily Pad

My go-to pizza restaurant in Exeter. Lovely setting with views of the cathedral. They are brilliant at catering for gluten free (Coeliac UK accredited) and service is always great. Wendy (the manager) is fab!

Zosi Webster

I have been to this restaurant a couple of times with friends, it has always been a lovely experience. The staff are attentive and were understanding of allergies. At busy times I would recommend getting a reservation, but it is not always necessary. As a coeliac, they were able to provide great knowledge of coeliac disease and there was a large range of gluten free options. I had pancakes and have had one of the breakfast, both are very good and I would recommend to coeliacs! My friends, who are not coeliacs, have always enjoyed their food, and the atmosphere of the restaurant in general is lovely, and the prices are good.

Hope Williams

This is by far my favourite restaurant, being a coeliac is difficult when it comes to finding a decent place to eat, this place here just absolutely lives up to all expectations, the gluten free menu is perfect and has a large range of different meals, I've been multiple times and tried a few different things off the menu but my favourite is the GF Hot honey fried chicken burger 🍯🍗 🍔 The Halloumi fries are also a must! 😍 The staff here are incredible and the service couldn't be any better, the food service is quick and the staff always make sure everything is perfect with your meal and are happy to help if not! The only reason I marked it down by 1 star on Atmosphere is because I feel like it should be a whole lot busier for such a great restaurant 🤩 Places like this deserve our custom. Also in the females toilet I noticed a trolley for everybody's access with all different types of sanitary products and lady bits and bobs which I think is very thoughtful😊 Not a lot of places have the same little touches as Brightside! Will always recommend this place 👌🏼

Andy Evans

Very nice meal with limited but tasty gluten free options

Abi Joint

Ordered delivery that turned up 2 hours later. Food was stone cold. No apology and the gluten free base was so rank I couldn’t eat it. First and last time ordering. What a waste of £40 !!

Will Snow

What a gem in Exeter! Authentic Thai cooked by lovely people. Love the wooden furniture and hand painted signs. Good sized portions at reasonable prices and great gluten free options

john wood

Willing to cater for a Gluten free customer with a first rate meal. Very happy with my lunch here and will be recommended to friends.

I have visited Tortilla before, but this was my first time visiting the Exeter branch. The staff were patient and helpful, and I went around 4pm on a workday and the queue was not large at all. There was a large variety of food, I had the naked burrito and it was nice. There was only one veggie option (vegan chilli), but it was delicious and I would recommend. The naked burrito is gluten free, which was very tasty, and we had no issues finding seats. We used the £5 Monday deal with the app, which worked perfectly, and all me and my friends found our £5 burritos to be great.

Meghan Mackay

I'm a big fan of Turtle Bay because there are lots of gluten free options for food (as long as you check on the website, they aren't listed as gluten free on the physical menu) and the staff are always super friendly. Plus delicious two for one cocktails, always a pleasant experience. Have been here a few times and it definitely won't be my last.

Meghan Mackay

Lots of gluten free options for breakfast and decent portions that will keep you nice and full. Lovely friendly staff and of course tasty food.

Jake Tosh

Hope was amazing. So friendly, really accommodating to gluten allergy. Overall great experience:)

Alice Johnstone

Always great! Amazing food and great for coeliacs!

jon lee

My favourite place to eat in the world. The food is fabulous and they can cater to me being a coeliac.

Elizabeth Brown

Andrew Rowles

Very relaxed enjoyable evening. Food was great & service was excellent. Gluten Free well catered for.

F Roze

Absolutely wonderful food, excellent staff and amazing atmosphere. Has a good range of vegan, vegetarian, gluten free options suitable for even the most complex dietary restrictions like myself. Has great wheelchair access with a very roomy interior and excellent wc set up (no bins or other furniture placed in wheelchair transfer space). Would definitely recommend and will definitely be returning.

Carl East

Visited today for Gluten free chips to be told they haven’t offered them for a “couple of years now” despite the (knackered looking) 3 foot high sign out side saying “we serve Gluten Free fish & chips every Monday”. Disappointed and a bit puzzled.

Simon Pardoe

Fantastic vegan pizza options. Very accommodating for coeliac / gluten free too. Lovely local Powderkeg beer. Only loses a few points for the "Atmosphere" as loads of meat hanging up on hooks in clear view of the tables. Also, it was very loud / echoey last time we visited, I think some soft furnishings on the walls / ceiling might help?

Julio Cesar Osorio Muñoz

small new place in Exeter, the gluten free pizzas are amazing quite tick crust but delicious, and the chicken wings are a most. Definitely coming back

laurence river

went to get 4 baguettes and they took the order for all 4 started making them and when they had finished making 3 turn round and said they had no gluten free bread wanted to walk but didn't have much choice as they had made them but upset as my sons girlfriend had to go with out wont get caught out next time will order hers first

Georgia Moyse

After having takeaway from here and now sitting in, I feel best placed to leave a review that covers everything. The takeaway is always really well cooked, still hot, and an extra poppadom sneaks in now and again. We've had the takeaway on numerous occasions, and it's always been the best takeaway in Exeter. The food is really tasty, more authentic flavours and stronger spices than some Indians I've tried. But still not too spicy for the English palette. The quality of food and portion sizes also make it very good value for money. When I collect our takeaway, the restaurant always looks like a really nice place to be. So my partner and I decided to eat in. It was a really great experience. Don't be put off by being on a busy road. You don't hear it, and it's quieter during dining times anyway. Somehow, eating in, the food that we thought was the best in Exeter tasted even better. They topped their own food! It's also great for vegetarians or vegans and gluten intolerant, which our table was. Plenty of choice! The service was perfect. It's clear the staff enjoy their jobs and work in a nice place as there was a very happy vibe and they were all getting along and enjoying themselves. When we had our service that positive happiness continued, and the person serving us couldn't have been more friendly and professional. The hand cleaning wipes magic is worth eating in for alone! You'll see what I mean... We will definitely be returning to eat in more often.

A sticky start as my daughter who was organising the event (my other daughters Wedding pre celebrations) called when the diet had changed for one of the guests and told a baby couldnt to attend aswell even though she had booked for an "additional" high chair. Told that 48hrs needed to be given for gluten free diet and that a 5th person (a baby)!! should be reserved so we wouldnt be able to attend. She decided to tell them we wouldnt bring the baby to keep the spot. However on the day a lovely reception and the staff were wonderful Even though the baby didnt attend although table was laid up for 5! Lovely waitress x Lovely memories were made especially for my 5 year old grandaughter x Worth the service charge just issues before attendance as lady was rude on the phone

Ines

A friendly little cafe with welcoming staff. The food exceeded all expectations in both quality and quantity, and all for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended for vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters alike! Great choice for gluten free too :)
