Wow what a great place! Very clean, relaxing, comfortable booths, great friendly staff, so glad we found it, the gluten free vege pizza is the best I’ve ever had, (and I eat out a lot!) can’t even describe how delicious that was, the gluten free carbonara was amazing also, we will purposefully detour in the future to be able to come to this restaurant again, it is a new fave 🙌

Great takeaway . Mr Wong always cherry at the counter even when busy and that is always. Caters for my son's gluten free by Pan frying the fish and keeps it warm in tinfoil and polystyrene container. The chips are always separated from our fish too . Great safe option for us.😊

A very enjoyable lunch in a refreshing and relaxing atmosphere. The decor is simple and adequate, but needs that rocking table sorted! 😁. The staff are very friendly and helpful and they appeared to take pride in where they were and what they did. They have great gluten free options that are coeliac safe and the iced coffee was delicious. We thought this place was one of the best cafes we've visited in a long time and will happily visit again when we come through this town. Thanks very much.

Recently visited with a group of friends. The food and service was excellent. I had Onion Bhaji, then Lamb Masala with a Garlic & Cheese Naan. All really great! Everyone else in our group (including one person who is vegetarian, and another who is gluten-free) also really enjoyed their food. Thanks guys!
