What an incredible experience! The staff was very friendly and helpful, the atmosphere was great (we lucked out and got a shaded spot on the patio on a perfect sunny day), and the food was to die for!!!!! There were so many gluten free, vegetarian and vegans options to chose from. The GF mushroom bourguignon pie was superb, couldn’t believe it was gf (but certainly was!)!!! Will be dreaming about that meal for years to come!

The billboard promise of a dairy-free, gluten-free chocolate orange torte drew me in for a sweet bite and a coffee. Was glad I stopped. Really enjoyed the ambience, the off-peak hours service was still welcoming and a few quiet moments off the busy high street. If you often feel deprived of dessert because of dairy/ gluten restrictions this one is worth it! Enjoy!

We went to the Monument for lunch today and loved it. As a coeliac, I could eat most things on the menu and the allergens menu on the back was really clear. I felt really confident to eat here. The food was great - I had falafel to start and veggie tagine with rice for my main. Both were delicious! The drinks options are fab and there was even had gluten free beer. My partner had the lamb burger and loved it. He loved that the the dishes are homemade, produce is local and has great flavour. We'll definitely be back :)

A lovely little place not far from the cathedral entrance. Coffee was really good, decor is lovely with lots of cute/cool decorations and objects which together work really well and most importantly for myself was that they offered gluten free bread for all of their sandwiches and toasted sandwiches. It was a really good gluten free bread too, held together well which if you know gluten free bread isn’t often the case. I will be back on my next Canterbury trip!

For 1st time was a good experience, staff were happy to help as two of my guest were either vegan or gluten free, for gluten free they couldn't guarantee that no food contamination would occur, so my guest settled for salad and other stuff. Overall very good
