The vegan salad was delicious and didn't need the haloumi I added. It was healthy, satisfying, and would have been great on its own. The salted caramel almond slice was also good, and it was gluten-free, vegan, and refined sugar-free. The lemon honey was amazing, especially since I asked for a super strong one and got extra lemon honey ginger syrup and hot water. The staff was friendly. I also found a nice treat for myself at the crystal shop nearby that closes at 1pm.

Was happily informed about the specials of 2 large pizzas for $32. It was clearly a popular deal as the place was very busy. Got a table easily enough and was cool to find they offered board games to play. So playing cards was a good option while there was a long wait (though this was because they were down on staff). We got 2 pizzas for kids to share (Spicy Pepperoni and Popcorn Chicken), and hubby and I shared a gluten free Bacon Cheeseburger. The GF base was excellent and they said they made it on site. Menu would be helpful if things were clearer which toppings were GF. (Regular fries were GF, curly fries were not). A good atmosphere, fun looking at the old movie posters and car plates, a bit too many tvs which distracted kids (and adults). Overall worth the good deal if you’re happy to wait.

Great gluten-free pizza bases.... Crispy and chewy (yes, even without gluten) and had a surface grainy texture (semolina?). Thanks team

Had the best food and experience when visiting Buffalos Roast House! I had my first roast since being diagnosed Coeliac 15 years ago and it was well worth the wait! So happy to have discovered this place and will definitely be back for more!!

I've been staying locally for work, and my partner and I discovered the best place to eat! The food is so fresh and flavourful, and such a lovely owner. I'm a coeliac, and have to eat gluten free, and I have such confidence eating here, as the owner himself has been gluten free for 20+ years. Most of the menu items are gluten and dairy free, and they even offer gluten free bread. We've tried the scallop fritters, fish tacos, and the fries, all are hands down the best I have ever eaten. Can't wait to work my way through the rest of the menu!
