Stopped by for a quick bite on my first night in Cairns. I’m coeliac and it was nice to see so many options. The chef also came out to double check if I was coeliac or just intolerant which I really appreciated. Maple bacon burger & chips was very tasty. Would go back.

This is a wonderful place to spend an evening … a really lovely atmosphere, the service fantastic, the food and cocktails devine and the chef was so good with accomodating our coeliac. We were so impressed we’ve already been back for cocktails and booked again for dinner.

We came with gluten intolerances, vegetarian, dairy free and shellfish allergies. The head chef came out personally to help us with our order and cater for our very annoying dietary needs. The food tasted amazing and came out very quick. Would highly recommend this restaurant for everyone, as well as people with food allergies. Many thanks to the head chef and other staff!

Had to leave a review to say the Gluten-Free fried chicken burger was the BEST GF chicken and BEST GF burger bun I’ve ever had!! (Why this isn’t already on Google I do not know) but I am SO glad I came across this absolute gem of a place while in Cairns. Partner had the non gluten free and his food was also amazing! Awesome spot, venue, service and seriously best feed… and added bonus - a labelled GF beer completed my ease of ordering (and meal of course). 5 stars cause I can’t leave anymore. Top job guys! Today I ate like I had no intolerances and it was amazing! So if you’re like me and searching for GF meals (and often faces disappointment) look no further!

Absolutely blown away by this breakfast! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From the first bite to the last, everything on this plate was an explosion of flavour. Seriously SO flavourful! And the breaky burger? Don't even get me started – it was equally fantastic. While the gluten-free options were a little limited, the sheer deliciousness of what they did offer more than made up for it. You can tell they prioritize quality and taste above all else. The waiter as well (forgot his name, sorry!) was super hilarious and friendly…highlight of the visit!! I'm already planning my next visit!

Root is the only vegan restaurant in town, even there are gluten free options, serving locals, tourists and districts. You have our community strong support, it is not easy for a small business and they have to think twice to take time off. Please show your love. I do not want another business close down.

Great little cafe in the heart of the city!! The food was pretty good and the portion sizes were great too, was quite difficult to finish the eggs Benedict! A few gluten free options and super friendly staff. I absolutely enjoyed my experience here and cannot wait to share it with my friends and family.

The icecream was delicious, and there are lots of vegan options. Serving sizes are massive! My only issue is that the gluten-free flavours aren't marked as such, making it harder to choose.
