I wasn\u2019t very optimistic about this location being coeliac friendly, but it seems I might have been wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I asked the initial server what on the menu might be gluten-free as there were no markings on the menu at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The server then went through everything on the menu that had gluten in it which was mostly sauces. He gave me a lot of confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the next staff member came up to take our order I wanted to clarify if they had a separate section in the kitchen or separate fryers for the food. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It turns out they don\u2019t really use fryers and she didn\u2019t have a lot of knowledge around how the Chefs would prepare the meal but she was clear that they would make best efforts if they knew it was for a coeliac or gluten free guest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The kitchen is an open kitchen so it\u2019s quite easy to see and even speak with the Chefs if you want to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The food was amazing and the service was very good although it is an expensive location to eat and a portion sizes are quite small.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would definitely eat there again but would clarify clearly with the staff regarding being coeliac.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":30,"featured_media":1467,"parent":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"gluten_free_type":[],"gluten_free_foods":[],"class_list":["post-1466","eats","type-eats","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/eatglutenfree.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/AE521D01-7AEE-491F-BA1D-A9A79C6D4D7E-1024x768.jpeg","ams_acf":[{"key":"photos","label":"Photos","value":[{"ID":1464,"id":1464,"title":"99FBD873-CB16-4D4D-AE9A-3F973B582FDA.jpeg","filename":"99FBD873-CB16-4D4D-AE9A-3F973B582FDA-scaled.jpeg","filesize":386524,"url":"https:\/\/eatglutenfree.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/99FBD873-CB16-4D4D-AE9A-3F973B582FDA-scaled.jpeg","link":"https:\/\/eatglutenfree.me\/?attachment_id=1464","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"99fbd873-cb16-4d4d-ae9a-3f973b582fda-jpeg","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2022-07-27
