100% Gluten Free Coffee shop Huge range of delicious cakes, blondies, brownies, cupcakes, cheesecakes including a wide range of plant based also! You can order breakfast, brunch and lunch options from porridge, avocado on toast, panini's with a choice of gorgeous fillings. it's absolute heaven! I am a regular here as it's just so refreshing to feel so safe and have such choice!

Alanah Moulsdale

All of their burgers are gluten free, you just have to ask for a gluten free bun. Their onion rings and fries are also gluten free & they have gluten free beer too! A coeliac must try!

Rachel Dawes

Amazing GF pho! Very knowledgeable staff and great service!

On a date night, we popped in for some small plates to share with a glass of fizz. I've never been a fan of the hipster-themed dining experience but that's just personal preference. The place was very quiet for a Friday afternoon/evening and for some reason we were seated as far away from the door as was possible, right next to the window (lovely for people-watching on the Hayes) but also right next to the blinds' drawstring, and at some point a server came to pull the blinds down - we protested - and had to lean over my partner to reach. Anyway, apart from that the table was nice, service was quick. My partner has food intolerances and is a careful eater. We asked the server about their food and he wasn't certain, and had to go to the kitchen several times to check. Even when we thought he had it straight he kept coming back to check and recheck he understood our requirements, which is surely diligent but was bordering on fussy, and it became quite awkward for us, to the point we just said not to worry. We then had a manager come across to check again, and eventually managed to find three dishes from the gluten free menu which had neither soya or dairy in them. The food was decent, but the experience was uncomfortable. I can't fault the servers for triple-checking they had the info correct. I do wish it had taken maybe two or three trips to the kitchen fewer to establish the facts! Still, nice quiet meal, lovely view (when the blinds were up), a nice place to be for a couple of hours.

So happy we found the Juno Lounge while visiting Cardiff. We ate 3 meals there in 2 days! Great options for celiac and other dietary restrictions. Everything was delicious (curry bowl and brisket chili were highlights). Fun vibe and friendly staff. Thanks for the wonderful meals!

As with many Lounges this is a must visit! They have an extensive gluten free menu. The staff here are extremely friendly and helpful. Always order at the bar to ensure they can put it through as an allergy order.

Iwan Jones

Love the gluten free cake options. Great independent business in the centre of town.

Vicki Rowe

Food was lovely, and staff were very friendly and accommodating. Decent gluten free menu too!

Absolutely fantastic experience at Bill's in Cardiff Bay. We turned up without a reservation and despite the place being quite busy, we were seated promptly and drinks orders taken quickly. I'm Coeliac which means boring gluten free dining, but in Bill's there is a whole gf menu so I didn't feel left out. I had the Fish Pie and Banoffee Sundae, both of which were different from usual gf options. They also did a gf IPA which I wasn't very keen on but nice to have the option. We were served by Gabriel. He's an absolute treasure. If you're gf, you should deffo give the place a try!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Service & Welcoming Atmosphere at Hodo Lounge! I visited Hodo Lounge last night with my partner, four friends, and two dogs, and we had an absolutely wonderful time! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, but what really made the experience stand out was the incredible service from Ryan behind the bar. I have a severe banana allergy, and one of my friends has celiac disease, so we’re always cautious when dining out. Ryan was exceptionally attentive to our dietary restrictions, ensuring we felt comfortable and safe while also being genuinely friendly and easy to chat with. I ordered the standard Lounge Brunch without tomatoes, and Ryan went the extra mile by offering to swap them for something else. I chose mushrooms for my partner, which was a thoughtful touch. I also ordered the large Lounge Brunch for myself with the same adjustment and got an extra hash brown instead—small details like this make a big difference! For drinks, my partner had a Diet Coke while I ordered a Daceri Nolarder (alcohol-free). Two of my friends also got the same drink and really enjoyed it, but I found it wasn’t quite to my taste. When Ryan checked in with us after a few minutes, I mentioned this, and without hesitation, he asked if there was something else I’d prefer. I requested a peppermint tea, and to my surprise, he brought it out free of charge—a really kind and thoughtful gesture. Beyond the excellent service, the food was great, the atmosphere was relaxed, and we all felt incredibly welcome—including the dogs! It’s rare to find staff who not only accommodate dietary needs so attentively but also go out of their way to make sure every guest has a fantastic experience. We’re already looking forward to coming back, and we’ll definitely be recommending Hodo Lounge—especially thanks to Ryan’s outstanding hospitality.

Since going gluten free I thought I’d never eat quality pizza again. However these guys made my dream come true and have a recipe that tastes like actual take away pizza! Thank you guys. Keep doing it for Mamma!xx

James Hugglestone

Absolutely fantastic service from Jorja, friendly and helpful. As a celiac it's always awkward eating out, but our order was taken with no problems. The menu was straight forward and easy to navigate. Would definitely recommend to anyone with allergies.

Matthew Greenaway

They managed to squeeze us in despite being fully booked, which I appreciate. Really good gluten free pizza (tasted like a proper pizza!). The kids buffet is good value and a nice experience.

Jordan Richards

Love this place. I'm a coeliac and feel really comfortable eating here. The food is always really tasty as well.

Sian Creak

I’ve loved Fabulous Welshcakes for years. We always pick some up when we’re in Cardiff bay and Cardiff city centre. I love the variety but you can’t beat a traditional Welsh Cake. As soon as we started wedding planning we knew we wanted them for our wedding favours, it wasn’t even a question. There’s a huge range of flavour to choose from and they cater for allergies too! We had one celiac guest and another guest that was celiac and dairy intolerant.. they catered for both! I can’t thank you enough. We purposely ordered extra to enjoy ourselves after the day too. Thank you so much. We had a great experience throughout, from booking to collecting.

Matthew Batten

Good vegan and gluten-free choices. Staff are always friendly.

Becca Milner

Placed an order for collection, which included mainly gluten free items. One item included in the order was not gluten free, so the restaurant (specifically Ivo) contacted me by phone to check I was aware of this because he had noticed my order was mainly gluten free. I cannot thank Ivo enough for doing this, and when I arrived at the restaurant to collect my order, Ivo explained the lengths he had gone to to check this before calling me. Thank you Ivo, it really does make a difference for people who require these dietary options for medical reasons to feel like it is being taken seriously and checked. Also helps that the food was great as well! Will definitely go here again the next time we are in Cardiff!

J Charalambous

Vegan, vegetarian and gluten free menu. Food and coffee best small cafe in Cardiff!

Nic Allen

Very aware and helpful. They are able to offer gluten free pasta and pizza bases. They also have Dairy Free/Vegan Mozzarella and soya cream! Absolutely fantastic to be able to have a creamy pasta dish!

Tania Anderson

Birthday celebrations having afternoon tea together, gluten free not a problem and delicious. Way better than the afternoon tea we had at the Ivy.

Minerva “Min” White [she\they]

Great food, welcoming service, huge variety for limited diets!! When planning a trip to Cardiff my partner and I were looking for somewhere for lunch that could easily cater for her dairy and gluten free diet. This came up as one of the options so we took a chance on it. This turned out to be a good move as this has rapidly become a destination place for us (even if the rest of Cardiff is jammed up due to the rugby! 😅) All dietary options are clearly marked on the menu and new dishes have recently become available adding to the choices. There is even a vegan lassi option, which is superb!

Service very good with a varied selection of mezes. Atmopshere relaxed . For those who have food intolerance ( gluten etc) , advice needed when choosing from menu as this is not made clear. However, just ask and all will be explained. Enjoyable experience

Katrina Stanley

Everyone was amazing and fully accommodated for my mum's various dietary requirements. The gluten free pasta was amazing!

Claudia Mastropierro

This place used to be a literal heaven for gluten free people. I went last week and the menu has changed. The only "gluten sensitive" options are on the Vegan menu, and it's all very confusing! Our choices are limited to the Sundaes and the Waffle. No sauces for the waffle are marked as GF (or GS) so I had a very sad crumbly waffle with just ice cream on top! Definitely not going again!

Alanah Moulsdale

Gluten free menu available. The manager takes the order for people with allergies/coeliac disease so they take allergies very seriously here. I usually order a ramen with rice noodles and the broth is full of flavour.

Extremely helpful here! Fantastic gluten free bread and crackers range as well as Dairy Free/Vegan cheeses! They stock the fantastic I am Nut ok cheese
