Great vegan and gluten-free options

Incredible gluten free and vegan options. Staff always friendly!

Amanda Flanagan

Went for an early mid week tea. There was a separate Gluten Free Menu with plenty of options and the allergen handling was clearly explained, I ordered a smoothie and the staff member made sure all the equipment was swapped out before making. Food was delicious and speedy. Items were also clearly labelled with allergen markers which was reassuring. Can't wait to go back and try something else from the menu!

visited Manchester today for my scheduled monthly trip with my son and husband. We dined at the Hard Rock Cafe, our preferred establishment, appreciating its exceptional atmosphere, staff, and cuisine. The restaurant's accommodation of my son's and my coeliac disease is particularly noteworthy, ensuring both safety and deliciousness. Our server, Steven, provided attentive, friendly, and welcoming service. His own experience with coeliac disease was a significant advantage, eliminating any need for extensive explanation (though the Hard Rock Cafe staff are consistently accommodating). He thoroughly explained the kitchen's procedures. Despite our familiarity with the restaurant, their reassurances regarding food safety were appreciated. Manager Rik also checked on our experience, reiterating the safety protocols. My son particularly enjoyed the attention, a welcome respite after a challenging week at school.

Such a lovely place we came on Saturday my mam is gluten and dairy free and it was not a problem, the food was lovely we all had the flat iron steak, friendly atmosphere and the staff were so helpful and happy in their work. We moved into the bar area after our meal and it was so relaxing. Thank you to all of the staff Ash, Simon, Paulo and Tyler it was lovely to meet you all and we will definitely be back.

Fiona Beresford

Nice place to eat, clearly labelled vegan and or vegetarian and or gluten free foods. Good enough standard. The cauliflower wings were sold out, so too were the cashew nuts. Took 40 mins to receive our food after our 2 pm booking and food order. Seems like a nice place to go for afternoon tea?

Phillip Morgan

I always love the Tea Hive, they serve great tea and coffee, plus a really good selection of cakes, many of which come as Vegan or Gluten free. The food is always fantastic, plentiful portion sizes with fresh, quality ingredients

David L

Wonderful, inviting, charming pub. Clearly marks gluten-free options, which are many. Gluten-free cider on tap. Highly recommended. Fish and chips were wonderful.

Gracie Robertson

I love this place. I am a regular here, whether it’s just to get a takeaway drink or sit in and get some work done over a great brunch. They have gluten free and vegan options and the quality and quantity is great. My favourite is always the soups which are always changing. And usually their drinks are always great. However I got an iced matcha with oat milk today and was VERY disappointed. There was practically no matcha. The drink was very light green and very milky. Just semi-matcha flavoured milk. This is the one drink I wouldn’t recommend or get again. It was £4.90 and just not worth it. Very bland and no flavour. Left me quite upset and let down as I do like this spot so much and am always purchasing from them. I then went in about 2 weeks later to sit in and ordered another iced matcha and what I got was shocking. The drink was TINY and gone in about 2 sips, mind you half of the drink was just ice. So disappointing and just a rip off. (I have shown a picture of the drink next to my index finger for reference of how small the glass of matcha I was served really was.) I understand matcha is expensive but if you can’t serve quality drinks or offer the option of to add extra matcha powder then don’t serve the drink period.

Ellie Mcdonald

Absolutely amazing food and wonderful service. Plenty of gluten free choices and perfect place to share a couple of dishes with friends or just have something to yourself, although not the cheapest definitely worth the price.

Jo J

It's so nice to eat somewhere that has good options for someone who is both veggie and gluten-intolerant. Often, restaurants think you can be one or the other but Maray catered for us well. Very tasty dishes, nice atmosphere and the 2 wait staff we had were very friendly and helpful.

We had a lovely time at Namii, after I was gifted a voucher by friends for my birthday. CC and our other server with the bright pink hair (apologies forgotten your name) were very welcoming, accommodating and friendly. CC offered to take pictures of my partner and I which was appreciated. The food was delicious, and I was gifted a free dessert as I said I was here with a voucher I received for my birthday. Several meals looked great, and they are very accommodating for gluten free eaters like me, and vegetarians/vegans

Simone Algisi

Good gluten free pizza and fusilli ragu. Gluten free options clearly marked on the menu and the staff is very knowledgeable

Cheryl Pearson

Awesome spot for coeliacs and GF people. Food is spectacular. Nothing is off limits !

Frank Cilla

This is my absolute favorite place in Manchester. I came here while visiting from the US and everyone in my family loved the food. My daughter has celiac and cannot eat gluten and this is the best meal we have had in a very long time. The arepas were so full and fresh I wish I had more time to try others. We had the chicken and the beef and both were phenomenal. We also ate empanadas and they were some of the best I’ve ever had. Not only was the food amazing but the service might have been even better. They were so accommodating and knowledgeable about gluten allergies and ensured we had a great experience here. I can’t say enough how amazing Mia’s Arepas is and highly recommend to anyone in the Manchester area. Thank you for making our family trip even better with your delicious food!

John O'Hare

Lovely food and great for gluten free

Victoria Coleman

Lovely, staff really helpful, happy and nice to talk to. I'm celiac and felt well looked after, thank you. Served by Simon chef was Steven.

Charlie Clark

Really good food, cocktails and great service from Nic, especially accommodating to a gluten allergy! Both her and the host were really understanding and explained everything really clearly. Desserts were given free as an anniversary gift which we really appreciated!

Rahma Abdennour

I have celiac disease and I always feel 100% comfortable eating here. They clearly outline which items on the menu are gluten free and let you know that these will be prepared separately but like most places notify you that they can not 100% guarantee zero cross contamination but they make every effort and I’ve never had an issue. They even have sauces and these are poured direct from the bottle so not contaminated! The food is also amazing! Very knowledgeable!

Thibaut

Went for the breakfast and it was as expected: very good! Make sure to come early or to book a table (I don’t know if they take reservations) because it can take some time to get a table. Of course there are several vegetarian and vegan options as well as gluten-free!

Emma Nind

7 of us had dinner last night about an hour before closing and the staff were wonderful, really helpful with gluten intolerance and talking through options. Food was delicious

Alex Miljus

Trés chuffing yummy food, warmest of welcomes and perfect ambiance. Celiac paradise.

Brett Rangel

Karen Bentall

Friendly and attentive service, good pub food and gluten free menu available.

Daniela Hinojosa

Delicious lots of GF options. GF Bread was best I had

Luke Strange

Had the shack rice which was delicious. The meat was so well seasoned, particularly the beef. The food arrived quickly. The service was fantastic. I am coeliac and they were very happy to cater for me. Although Vietnamese is naturally good for gluten free, they made sure I had the allergen matrix and let the kitchen know to prepare my food safely. I felt reassured that the staff knew what they were doing, but not over-explained or patronised about my own allergy, which is perfect. Overall great service for a large group of 7, nice vibe, good value for money, and delicious food. Can't ask for more than that.

Great food, really generous portions. Lovely cocktails and a great atmosphere. Not too loud, not too quiet. Saukhyad was really helpful when it came to making sure the food I had was gluten free. Thank you!

Ben Basi

Best french toast I've had, many gluten free options as well

Benjamin Stubbs

We picked Sam’s Chop House for our first night in Manchester and it was the perfect choice. We wanted some proper local food, plus one of our friends has a gluten allergy, and they promised on their website they could accommodate it—which they did, no problem at all. The food was amazing and came out quickly, but what really made the experience was the service. Our waitress, Jaye, was an absolute gem—super friendly, attentive and even took the time to give us some great recommendations for drinks afterward, even if the restaurant was packed and we noticed she was super busy. As tourists, that extra touch made all the difference. If you’re in Manchester and want great British food with top-tier service, this is the place to go. Couldn’t have asked for a better start to our trip!

Heather Neal

Had a lovely brunch here today. Various choices, full English to steak and fries and eggs anyway. A varied menu with gluten free available too. Nice little local eatery, with other local products on menu such as worker bee coffee aswell as fish ans chips from next door and bread from bakery next door.

Heather Horton

Was so glad to find a gluten free Sunday roast. Amazing food, great atmosphere. Ellis was my server and was phenomenal. Absolutely recommend.

Hannah Lang

One of my favourite gluten free pizzas in Manchester. Fairly priced too.

Thomas Barrett

Came here for a birthday dinner. Place is spacious with a very nice ambience. The drinks menu has quite the variety of cocktails, I can happily recommend the Dark Cherry Cosmo and the Passion fruit Mojito. We had mains and desserts. Most upper £10s to low £20s with streak obviously pricier. I got the swordfish and it was delicious! Very good value for your money. Dessert was a Spiced Pear and Almond Tart which was also delightful. There is a decent selection of Gluten Free options and some vegetarian/vegan options. Slight wait on the main meal but it was somewhat busy and they were very apologetic. The car park is a little small so street parking might be needed. I would highly recommend for a fancy dinner/date night or even just a couple of cocktails at the bar. Will be coming back!

Suresh Thalange

Good service at this busy restaurant. Great food too. I think the spice level is toned down for the local palate. They also cater for vegans and gluten intolerance, so everyone can go and get some tasty food

Harrison Mc

Alfredo Leeper

Elsie Dinkins

Alanah Moulsdale

Haven’t had food here, but if you’re looking for gluten free beer, you’ll get some at here. It’s really nice beer too, not like the ones you get in the supermarket.

Brandy Maldonado

Jacaranda ,

Served by Daisy who was fabulous! Very helpful and knowledgeable of the menu. However our friend who was coeliac, and unfortunately some of the menu items that were designated as GF were unsuitable for her! Bit disappointing. Otherwise the food was fabulous and the atmosphere is lovely!
