The food was excellent, I had the chicken breast with stilton and apricot sauce and it was absolutely delicious!! The service was fairly quick and our server was very friendly and helpful, making sure the coeliac in our group would be okay with what she was ordering. We also had desserts, including the gluten free profiteroles, and they were amazing! Will definitely be coming back 👏🏼

SAM JOY

Love the lounge wherever they are! Great for me as I’m gluten free. I get a dedicated GF menu! Plus there’s vegan & regular food to cater for everyone!

Rhys C

Great experience- dog friendly and catering for what looked like all dietary needs. Staff friendly Gluten free has its own separate menu on request at the bar which is very comprehensive. They mark up the dishes as GF when serving so no mix ups. Pictures attached show the gf burger looks (and tasted) great with no difference to main menu. Fantastic and thank you!

Ellie Falloon

A great restaurant who knows their allergens! Feel very safe eating here

Comfort food made with high quality ingredients. No menu, just turn up and have the bowl of the day! Completely gluten free and vegan cafe.

Ki Price

We’re gluten free - We came down on a visit to Bournemouth and saw the reviews. The GF bases on the Pizzas were big and tasty pizzas were great as was the service. Would definitely come again.

Fast and polite service from Oliver, pizza was amazing and the banana blossom was a brilliant gluten free and veggie alternative! Would love to come again!

Great selection of gluten free dishes. The battered tofu is my favourite. Completely vegan menu. Owners are awesome too!

Fantastic food and exceptional service by Emily! Very friendly and showed excellent product knowledge and was able to answer questions immediately. All the dishes were correct (table of 11) and really good gluten free options, separate fryers. 10/10 would recommend

As a coeliac there is a good choice - not just one option.

Guys Who Dine

Is this the best cafe/bar in Bournemouth? Although we were staying in a hotel that does a very nice breakfast,we prefer to eat later without getting up too early. Just a short walk through town and up to the Triangle. The interior is bright and possibly a little camp. Think pink & neon and maybe a flamingo lurking somewhere with a bit a glam. There's wooden table's & chairs, as well as comfy sofas to sink into. It's a very friendly and welcoming space. You can just have a coffee,or choose from an array of freshly prepared food. Whatever side of the fence you are,gluten free,veggie,vegan,they cater to all tastes. But we're not any of those. An all day breakfast is what we are craving. As you enter,find an available seat to settle into and place your order at the counter. This can be difficult at times,as it's a very sort after spot. The breakfast is freshly cooked to order and arrives at the table in no-time. The highlight has got to be the very tasty sausages. At £9.25,it's quite good value. In fact all their prices are very reasonable for the quality and service. In the evening they have different events as well. Our only problem is,when we bring our boys,that's doggies. We can't get out of the place. As so many people want to say hello to them. This is truly the friendliest and best cafe in Bournemouth where everyone is welcome. Oh,and our boys love all the attention.

Kim Hendrey

Love the Commodore for food with friends. Lisa and Charlie are so friendly and kind. Very welcoming and attentive. Food was excellent. Have to say I’m so pleased you now do gluten free chips in a designated fryer.

Lara Chammas

Great place to have breakfast, lunch, or a quick snack overlooking the cliffs and ocean! Had plenty of gluten free options including bread to enjoy a delicious sandwich.

Prezzo offers a modern and stylish setting, with a neutral palette of greys and earthy tones creating a calm and contemporary atmosphere. It’s an inviting space, but when it comes to the food, I expected a bit more. We ordered a gluten-free pasta and a Margherita pizza, both of which were decent but unremarkable—the kind of dishes you could find just about anywhere. For a brand like Prezzo, I anticipated a higher level of quality and flavour, but the execution felt standard rather than special. That said, the service was excellent. The staff were attentive, friendly, and efficient, ensuring a smooth and pleasant dining experience. While the food didn’t impress, the service certainly did.

I had a wonderful dining experience, thanks to Harriet, our waitress. She was incredibly attentive and made sure to double-check that my meal was completely gluten-free, which I truly appreciated. Her care and attention to detail made me feel at ease and able to enjoy my meal without worry. Harriet’s friendly demeanor and professionalism really stood out, and I highly recommend her for anyone who values excellent service. Thank you, Harriet, for going the extra mile!

Not eaten in here yet, but noticed an amazing variety of GF cakes when I grabbed a quick drink!

Ambrose's Legit Honest Reviews

Superb pub with extremely attractive, decorative green style frontage and colourful floral baskets. Looked very inviting - anywhere that doesn't have faded plastic efforts oozing and burgeoning out of pots is always a very good sign. Excellent choice of muso playing from the Travelling Wilburys to the Beatles, from Fleetwood Mac to Cat Stevens. Dog friendly pub. Live music. Menu proffering homemade food. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options available. Has sheltered outdoor seating area to the rear of the pub which is colourful and well designed. Very large range of handpulled cask beers. When I visited, they had the lovely drop that is Adnam's Ghost Ship on, along with Butcombe Brewing Co's Original Beer, Butcombe's Adam Henson's Rare Breed Pale Ale, Butcombe's Gold Golden Ale, Otter Ale, Liberation Brewing Co's Ale Golden Beer, Liberation's IPA, Liberation's Herm Gold Blonde Beer and Dartmoor Brewery's Jail Ale. Highly recommended pub.

Hekla Helgadottir

Great selection at breakfast at a reasonable price. The fresh omelette maker was a hit, the service was impeccable and the fact that they had gluten free options on request (at least gf corn flakes and bread) as well as knowledge at hand of which cooked breakfast items were gluten free (all but sausages) was brilliant!

Caz C

Really tasty gluten free and dairy free beef and horseradish sandwich, the bread was so soft! The staff were kind and helpful too 😊

Lara Chammas

Had two great dinners here during my staff in Southbourne. While you end up having a lot of dishes, the food was tasty and locally sourced which I loved. Most of the menu was also gluten free, or able to be adapted, which meant I had plenty to choose from! Service was also great and friendly and gave lots of recommendations for the area

Keeley Sissons

I had high expectations after reading multiple positive reviews, so I was disappointed not to be able to give 5 stars. The gluten free menu only works if you don't have other intolerances and like halloumi and spinach. I ended up building my own breakfast. 2 rashers of bacon 1 poached egg 2 halves of tomato 1 portion baked beans (looked like 1/2 portion) 1 slice gluten-free bread (toasted) How much do you think that ought to cost? Now, I know I'm a Yorkshire lass and this cafe is in Bournemouth, but £8.50... that's a bit steep and worthy of an "'Ow much?" Everything about the Olive Cafe is distinctly average. For me personally, charging prices like £8.50 for a barely there breakfast is a bit cheeky. Either improve the quality and portion size or reduce the amount you charge.

Kevin Gilling

Great end of pier cafe, staff friendly and helpful. Good coffee for the money and gluten free options.

Tygen Wadhams

Chloe was amazing at catering for my Gluten intolerance and amazing at her job !!! She needs a pay rise

Rebecca Weigh

Popped in today for the first time as often mentioned on Facebook about how good it is. As I'm gluten free I often struggle to find places I can eat normal food rather than limited choices so emailed Dave ahead to check. Replied straight back and even offered to make a gf brownie to satisfy my sweet tooth! How accommodating! Food was excellent, fresh and hot. Brownie was Amazing! Let me know when you do it again can I buy some to bring home !! Thank you and will definitely be added to my list of places to head back too!

Barry Greenwood

10 of us and 2 dogs went for lunch having prebooked. Table arranged so that we were not or did nor disturb others! Very friendly and attentive staff both on booking and during the meal. Food well cooked and generous portions catering for vegetarian and gluten fee requirements as well as an age range of 15 to 80. Great views We will return. Many thanks

JadeLily Thompson

Lily was an amazing waitress and was really helpful when it came to my gluten intolerance, would highly recommend coming here for service.

Alex Smith

Expensive but very good food. Excellent Gluten free and Vegan options.

Sam Wilsden

Empanadas were some of the best gluten free food I've ever had. Lovely staff, and you feel like you've completely escaped the businesses of Boscombe when you sit inside. Lovely aesthetic inside, with lots of plants and lots of colour.

Neetul Shah

Delicious pasta at Gossip. Gluten free & vegan options as well as kids size portions too.

shareena marshall

Coeliac, had bottomless evening brunch. Emailing about gluten free food was not very helpful. I was quite anxious about what it would be like and whether if be able to eat. Once I arrived Libby made me totally comfortable. She was really knowledgeable about allergens and what I could safely eat off the menu. Some gluten free menu items are not listed, such as the gluten free cheeseburger. It was absolutely lush, we were so well looked after by Libby, with drinks flowing...what an absolute babe she was!

Julie Ratcliffe

Casual beach eatery. Great place, lovely atmosphere. Gluten free choices which means I can eat here.

leigh cook

Lovely staff, Alexander was brilliant, 5/5 for the food. I am gluten and dairy intolerance and they catered brilliantly. If I come back i will be going back

Ella Jenkinson

Plantain and curry goat were amazing, both gluten free. Exceptional service from the guy whose name was Omid. Great 241 cocktails and a lovely all round time.

Taylor Edwards

My experience at the Real Greek was great, the food was nice, and the group I went with all enjoyed the meal. Our severer was very accommodating and very good all night, ensuring that my gluten free mother did not feel out of place of that her dietary requirements were a problem, his name was Gabriel.

Lyn Brayshaw

Lovely lovely food and service. Highly recommended, amazing as vegan and gluten free. My mum couldn't believe it was all gluten free and kept checking.
