Best gluten free pizza I have ever had. If they don’t tell you that is GF you’ll not believe it. Better pizza than in Italy 35$ anyway. Has to be good.

I have been with a group of friends there twice, I am celiac and I have not had any problems eating, the girl who served us very kindly explained to us that everything was gluten-free. The food was delicious and in terms of quality and price it was great. I totally recommend this site.

No longer 100% gluten free, and can’t even cater for it adequately despite saying they can on their menu - didn’t notify us until 30 mins before our booking despite us specifying “gluten free” in our booking 5 days in advance, and couldn’t offer substitutions for their set menu (their menu now says only a couple of things aren’t gluten free, but we were told anything on the grill is no longer gluten free, so the menu is incorrect as well). To make matters worse, they take the full amount from your card for the set menu at the time of booking upfront, and then you have to wait days to get your money back if you’re not going. This place was an institution for coeliacs - if that’s why you were going, don’t bother.

I wanted to order a takeaway through uber for my partners birthday. We have previously eaten here before and get a gluten free base pizza. I called to ask if that was ok if I could order through the app and request if they did a gluten free base. The guy on the phone said they don’t do gluten free bases there. I responded that I’ve had them before here and he said well you can write it in the notes. I said well I’m not going to pay for pizzas if they are not going to be gluten free bases so I said will they be gluten free base and he responded no. Terrible, terrible service and did not make me feel welcome at all. Not accommodating and quite frankly rude.

The best gelato in Melbourne! Such a range of great flavours, and they always have exciting specials. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable of coeliac disease. I believe almost every flavour was gluten free, and they also used a fresh spoon from a fresh batch of gelato to reduce cross contamination, after I advised I was coeliac. Cannot recommend this spot enough!

I love this café for a few reasons, first and foremost. They have the best orange Matcha that is so creative and tasty! Second is their staff is really friendly. We were waiting outside before they opened, staff at the opposite side of the laneway told us in the very abrupt way that they were open until 830 however they didn’t know that we were actually waiting for 10 square Café to open. When we came up right up to Ten Square at 8 AM, they were so friendly sat us down really quick to serve on top of all this they also have really wonderful food! They have gluten-free vegan and nut free options and I’ve had a number of things here and they’re all very delicious. Great place to come if you’re staying in the Melbourne CBD.

The cutest little gem of a restaurant. Great cocktails (half price from 5-6 for happy hour) and amazing share plates. The veg/gluten free options were excellent.
