It’s not 100% gluten free

Rachelle Gosnell

We usually stop here when checking out Vivid Sydney as they do gluten free savoury and sweet crepes... and serve alcohol. It's a great spot to begin checking out Vivid too with a short walk to Australia House.

Is your nan gluten free? Because it was dreadful. Better not go there hungry or you will starve until they finally serve you the food. Too loud music, everyone needs to speak as if you’re inside a club… at noon and having lunch…

Courtney Radmall

Such a fun burger place. I was a little skeptical at first that they could prevent cross contact here but they have an open kitchen and I watched the whole process. They changed their gloves. Cleaned off the flat grill (although they don't put any buns on it anyway). The fries are also safe and cooked in a dedicated fryer.

I was looking for a cozy café and happened to stumble upon Belle Central. The decor and atmosphere immediately appealed to me. I tried a dandy latte, which I had never had before, and a piece of salted caramel. Delicious, and the service was pleasant as well. The selection of sugar-free and gluten-free options is perfect for me. I would love to come back.

Rolland Thomas

Best burger I had since a long time! Service is very good, Kiran advised us for the gluten free bun as we are celiac and it is next level quality!

Mike K

High quality, elevated but still traditional southern Chinese taste. Steamed beef rolls were silky and flavoursome, with a nice hint of coriander. The beef tendons were soft and delicious. The dumplings were all gluten free and perfectly steamed. Crispy skin chicken was deboned which was a pleasant surprise. The soft shell crab (also gluten free) was crispy and I could tell the oil was very fresh. This was honestly the best soft shell crab I have had. All in all, a succulent Chinese meal indeed.

Greg Dagg

Excellent gluten free burger

Evlin DuBose

Staff very knowledgeable for coeliac/dairy free and friendly, beware of nuts, but just delicious

Graham Thomas

Exceptional. All the curries were delicious. The staff were very friendly and accommodating of dietary requirements. The gluten-free naan is perfection!

Austin Booth

Went here with my mum, we both got a burger and drink with some chips, the burgers came out of the kitchen next to nothing in speed , burgers were great, very friendly service, gluten free buns are just like standard wheat buns, perfect place to eat and this rating is well deserved!

Cecilia Russell

We had a family lunch for our daughters 18th birthday at Norma's today. She is coeliac, so was great to be at a venue we know and trust to have safe food for her. We have large family, and had 50 people attending, Kenny worked with us to have the style of lunch she wanted. The venue worked for everyone from the babies and preschoolers to the grandparents. Both the platters organised as entrees and the lunches were enjoyed by everyone.

Jet Shaw

Staff were great & helpful the only issue was there wasn’t a meal for Vegan & Gluten free. The kitchen did try to find something but choice was very limited. I would like to suggest there is at least one option for this dietary requirement.

Jonas Støldal

Perfect glutenfree dinner!

Kaarina Allen

Finding a quality gluten free restaurant is difficult in Sydney, but Chula is fantastic

Jeannie Peake

I am a coeliac. The care the special staff take is amazing. Nothing to difficult for them. Always smiling ,polite and helpful. Thanks to all. Well done

Dan Duncan

8th November - One of my locals that until now I had not tried. I dined here with my son prior to a movie at the local cinema and was glad to have given this a go. The service was prompt which was needed for us to get to our movie. A broad selection of burger types and even cater to people with food intolerances. I was glad to have tried a Gluten Free beer. The chips had a fantastic crisp to them and were ccoked nice and light. Great choice for a movie night

Leanne Taylor

Great food gluten free burgers the bomb. Dont change.

Bethany Watts

Absolutely love this place. Everything is completely gluten free, and lots of things are also vegan-friendly. The veg pies are my favourite (and I'm saying that as someone who can eat regular pastry with gluten - these are still the best). I'm slowly making my way through the menu and everything is delicious. The owner and staff are the nicest people too. Highly recommended!

Kerrie Vaughan

Visiting from Hobart and found this gem of a cafe. Beautiful food with lots of gluten free and vegan options. Staff were lovely too.

Matthew Lansdall

Excellent first brunch of our honeymoon, beats the avo eggs in the Uk. Killian and the staff were really helpful with my wife’s gluten free allergy.

Josh Hunter

Lovely atmosphere, great food, amazing speciality coffee! The owner is kind and loves what he does. Also celiac safe gluten free options!

Nathan Fenton

We ordered a burger, non gf, while my partner is coeliac. The team remade the burger entirely, on the house. Outstanding service. We were very grateful 🙏🏽

Lacey

My boyfriend and I come here all the time—the staff are absolutely lovely. They’re consistently professional, kind, and always go out of their way to accommodate us. The coffee is fantastic, and the food is definitely worth the price. Portions are super generous; we often leave with takeaway containers (which we’ve never had to pay extra for—such a bonus!). The quality is always top-notch. I absolutely adore the design of the space—it’s warm, full of life, laughter, and great vibes. As someone who’s gluten-free and highly sensitive, I’m so grateful for the range of safe options available. I’ve never gotten sick, which speaks volumes about how seriously they take dietary needs.

Michael Pillay

Every now and then you walk into a restaurant that blows you away, and this was one of those occasions. To be honest, we were just looking for a quick place to eat and ended up finding my "new" favourite Thai restaurant. The wait staff are efficient without being pushy, they let us know about the dishes and the best thing of all is that ALL the food came out at the same time and piping hot. Too many restaurants send out food one dish after the other and often the first person has finished before the last dish arrives, but not here! This makes it ideal for large groups. The food was absolutely superb with the highlights for us being the fried pork belly, snapper puffs and red duck curry. You absolutely have to try the Pandan donuts, wow, I'm going back just for those! They also have a great range of drinks and good range of craft beers. Another highlight, although not applicable to us was the large range of vegetarian, vegan and gluten free dishes, many if which tempted me as a dedicated carnivore. I loved this place, joined their membership program and I will most definitely be going back again real soon. 5 Stars hardly seems enough for what was an excellent experience and one of my culinary highlights so far this year! Well done Chat Thai, you have a new convert!

Morgan Walmsley

We’ve ordered Uber and Menulog 5 times for some reason every time the gluten free burger we order is burnt every time. Today the chips we usually love were over salted too. It’s very disappointing we have to pay extra for gf free of course and they can’t toast them right? Lack of train or attention to the grill time? once is understandable but 5 times wtf

Vicky Sturman

The 2 girls who served us tonight provided exceptional customer service. They were so friendly and when I mentioned I needed the gluten free option they asked if I was coeliac (which I am) and took the necessary steps to accommodate. They were also just very kind and worked really well together. Very quick and happy experience.

Jack Blakeley

Food is always consistently good quality, there are choices of buns for all sorts of dietary requirements, some buns are better than others however as I have found that as a gluten intolerant person, their gluten free buns are undesirable. If I had to describe it I would call it rock hard. The patties are always flavourful and well seasoned, they consistently offer high quality and ingredients. The atmosphere is welcoming and stylistic, you are never uncomfortable eating here. The service is always efficient but nothing special, the staff are kind, but nothing to write home about. Overall solid experience for the many times I have eaten there.

Paul Hinchey

Staff were friendly and helpful. Had options for Coeliacs including gluten free scones. Atmosphere

Sandra Babunski

Good catering for gluten free

Kate Byron

The Bunker never disappoints, me and my mum love coming here, everyone is so lovely and the food is always a ten out of ten! Special thank you to Yatin the chef who always makes my mum’s night by making the gluten free schnitzel as is her favourite with the gluten free gravy - easily the best! And special thank you to Taylor who radiates - making you feel so welcome! Couldn’t recommend this place more!

J K

👍Great friendly service 👍great burger 👍Gluten-free buns

Frances Burgess

A wide range of options, including gluten-free (not many GF Options at nearby cafes) and vegetarian. Produce was fresh and tasty, and serving sizes are ample. My friend had the eggs benedict and rated it highly. Salad was super fresh. Purchased some cake to bring home to share with familly and OMG they were sublime and they were GF. Champagne and watermelon and the chocolate 😋 Then there's the staff - very friendly, helpful and provide great service.

R J Solomon

I don’t usually leave anything but 5 star reviews but I felt compelled to share this experience in case it’s helpful for anyone deciding where to dine/have lunch. We were so disappointed with the food vs cost. And just the food generally. We ordered two salads, the fish and the summer salad. And two coffees. For $81. Two small salads and two coffees for $81. Both too small and lacklustre, too sweet for the summer salad and too flavourless and buttery/oily for the fish salad. We also ordered GF banana bread and waited a really long time for it, when it arrived it looked like it wasn’t gluten free (having seen both in the glass cabinet) and we had to double check and they confirmed it was not. Then they brought out the GF banana bread. In the grand scheme of things, life is short and this all might seem pretty trivial. But I guess life is short and sometimes you want good food and good service if you’re paying for it. So, if you want to eat good food, for good value, this is not the place to go. At least not for the salads and certainly not if you are in any kind of hurry.

Bianca Grosz

Really helpful with Coeliac.

gino percoco

Pleasant place with excellent view. Good pizza, fast, punctual, attentive service, I would say excellent. Great attention to people with celiac disease, in particular we thank Jennifer, the excellent waitress!!

Selina Gau

Offers gluten free fish and chips. Staff were careful not to cross contaminate.

emma mcpherson

my poor friend is a coliaec. we came here because we thought there gluten free options would be ok. they were limited and contained cross contamination. we then proceeded to ask for them to heat up the pasta my friends mum had brought her from home so she could actually have a meal. the restaurant did not coordinate at first telling us they could and then they couldn't. we found this disappointing and my poor friend had to sit there in tears hungry, devastated and again disappointed. we hope you improve this issue bondi pizza. we won't be back.

Simrin Nijhawan

An extra $9 for gluten free pasta is absolutely criminal! Very disappointed. Service was lovely.

Nathan Cole

Marlin seafood has not only filled the hunger in my belly, but also my craving for delicious seafood. The salad was fresh and the fish was cooked to perfection. The chips are also gluten free! I highly recommend here if you are craving a battered sav, some fresh grilled fish, or a crunchy garden salad or chippies. Do yourself a flavor and have a crack!

BeckyD PT

Absolutely amazing. Brought my boys 10 & 6. They loved the pizza, didn’t think they would be able to finish but it was so good they cleaned it up! And the brownie… (which happens to be gluten free, which you would never be able to tell) was to die for! We will definitely be coming back again.

Suzann Evans

Great for coeliacs

Laura Ryan

Coeliac friendly

Madi B

Delicious food and great atmosphere however can get quite busy and have your table forgotten about. The staff were super kind when we brought up the delay and were very apologetic. Would recommend for the delicious food including gluten free options

Lois Rowan

Thank you for the yummy chicken gluten free dumplings

Kaelin

Had the best time at NOLA for my partners birthday. They cater to gluten free options and the set menu was impressive in the range of options and impeccable value. Highly recommend.

Ricky F

Great little Thai restaurant, good sized portion and very good quality Thai food and service was great too. Good options for Vegetarian/Vegan and Gluten Free options.

Tiny Wavelets

Food was delicious and atmosphere was great. It was a relaxed eating setting. Gluten free options available

Jane Polglase

CELIACS AND FOOD ALLERGIES BEWARE - We had phoned ahead to ascertain if level of advertised ‘GF’ menu items would be suitable for our child who has celiac disease. Friendly lady on the phone quickly assured me they cater for celiacs, stating they take care to make a fresh toasty by wrapping the gluten free ham and cheese with GF bread, inside baking paper, clean set of gloves and GF designated tongs. (Sounded good until....) When having arrived and started ordering, I was told by the register staff that the restaurant was too busy to prepare GF food unless it was ordered from the menu (ie: an adult burger etc - more expensive item. But my 7yo wouldn’t have eaten any if their very limited 3 adult meal options.) When I explained that I was told on the phone it would be no problem to prepare the toasty from scratch her response was ‘I don’t know who you spoke to but we don’t do that when it’s busy and we can’t guarantee our GF items are GF, there are traces of gluten in everything because we just swap out the standard gluten bread for GF bread and it’s touched the same things.’ It was extremely hard for me to then get clarification from her if they actually take an existing sandwich with gluten bread and just replace the bread with GF bread using the filling that was previously in contact with the initial unsafe gluten bread. I tried to ask another way- Q1: ‘For Celiacs, are you able to prepare a fresh sandwich in a seperate area?’ Ans1: ‘NO’ Q2: Are you able to use a clean pair of gloves and clean tongs?’ Ans2: ‘No, we’re too busy for that. Q3: ‘Can you please check with the people making the food if they can do that because I was told on the phone that you can do that. She disappeared and returned to say ‘we can do that.’. 🤦🏼‍♀️ No apology though. I was still very nervous this person was diligent & confident enough for the job, so asked if she could please make a note on the order that it was a ‘celiac meal’. She then asked me to spell Celiac. At that stage my child got very scared that she was about to be fed a gluten meal and asked if we could drive somewhere else. TERRIBLE SERVICE! The manager wasn’t much better tbh. She started explaining to me that they don’t guarantee GF because they bake all the bread in-house on the same equipment. In shock & me wondering what they actually understand about gluten at all I query ‘Do you bake the gluten free bread on the same equipment as your gluten bread?!’ And she finally tells me ‘oh, for gluten free bread we order it in.’🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ I take a deep breath, full of stress and ask her again, ‘you did put our order down as a celiac toasty on gluten-free bread, yes?’. She says ‘Yes’. We still don’t know how they prepared our child’s food and will have to just watch for symptoms and hope we don’t end up with a 6wk recovery. The whole experience, apart from being extremely unnecessarily stressful and traumatic especially for my 7yo, was full of rudeness from the first person, including eye-rolling and smirking. Unprofessional incompetent service and inconsistent information. Such a shame, I really wanted to like this place & for it to become our new regular pit stop. Overpriced, dirty table, poor service, untrained rude staff, dirty toilets, no soap or toilet paper and when asked for soap soap the manager said they had run out, ‘still waiting for the supplier.’ 👎👎👎👎👎

Great for gluten free chips and chicken, music could be lower so we can hear numbers called.
