Great customer service - good wine selections and food well priced.
A lot of Gluten free options and a bonus gf complementary shortbread with my coffee - that made me very happy.
Dinner was okay. Their pizza sauce is way too sweet for me and I didn't care for it. Glad they had a gluten free crust but it wasn't the best I've had.
I got a $18 burger and I feel like I ate a $36 burger filling and tasty and gluten free. My partner bought a fish burger and finished the whole thing (that's a 1st) and those chips where mean as! 💯

Excellent service. A nice food menu & drinks menu choice. Good atmosphere. Good selection of Gluten-free choices. Prices for food & drink getting up there though!
Booked today for lunch thinking would beat the usual Mother’s Day rush - so did everyone else as restaurant was packed but staff were amazing rushing around taking orders - checking on drinks etc and the food was up to usual standard. My friend is gluten intolerant and waitress spent tine talking through the menu with her. Excellent lunch - thank you Old Vicarage
Loved dining here on Valentine’s Day! My partner and I both had carbonara - mine was gluten free and (according to him) just as good as his! Great staff too, really enjoyable evening.
Really high quality food. I had the entree ribs and gluten free chicken burger. The burger was much better than Burger Fuel and worth spending the extra on. Chicken was juicy and perfectly cooked. Friendly staff. We were travelling in a group from Auckland for a long weekend and stopped for a good meal before and after our planned adventure in the hills.
Staff was nice but we weren’t given our entree and had to ask again for our sides we had ordered. Also things labelled gluten free on menu are not safe for celiacs so would not recommend for celiacs.
As a Coeliac going out for dinner can be challenging. But at the Oxford my server knew straight away what coeliac's meant and was able to indicate what I could/couldn't have. Plenty of options to choose from.
Really great service from start to finish.
Our waiter was outstanding, we missed his name, a gentleman with a bead, he was attentive but not intrusive. The 2 person tables were well spaced so you could quietly chat, the kings choice meals was brilliant, I usually have trouble finding food as vegan and gluten free, but this was expertly catered for.
We came in on Good Friday and had the set menu with the 5 cocktails. It was amazing! The server we had (didn't catch his name but had very short hair and an accent) was just awesome. So friendly and helpful. Last time I came to Original Sin, I had terrible heartburn and straight away he mixed up a concoction for me behind the bar that cured it. What doesn't this guy do well?!
Your team were also fabulous at being flexible with one of us having coeliac disease. No issues - they made a custom gluten free pizza and also gave a separate platter for the entree - all gluten free.
Thanks again team, we will definitely be back.

Really nice food. A bit pricey and some items a bit spicy but worth it overall. Old style seating could do with some cushions. Quite a few vegan and gluten free options.
The rudest experience I’ve had in New Zealand. BF wanted a drink so headed there to order one. Unfortunately I am coeliac and so have to be very careful where I eat so sourced food from a safe eatery and came over to join him. The waiter came to bring his drink and said we couldn’t have food so I explained the situation. I asked if they served coeliac safe food and he said no. If it had been packed out and we were taking up a space (even though we were paying customers) I would have more understanding but the place was literally dead, we were the only ones there and we sat outside as well.
The manager stormed out the second my bf finished his drink, snatching it off the table and berated us. I tried to explain I had an allergy but she refused to listen. She Said her staff had made a mistake and they do supply ‘coeliac safe food’ (clearly they do not as the staff was completely unaware) and told us to move along. Walking inside and calling names at us
Based on other reviews this is not a one off experience.
Take a few steps next door, to the Akaroa Fish & Chip shop the service is excellent, so friendly and kind,food is so good and theres a reason it’s packed!
Thank you for a delicious dinner. We are appreciative of your knowledge and care with gluten free food, and the meal was amazing. The best meal we had in Tekapo!
BEAUTIFUL dinner with friends, environment absolutely popping off, slayed the house down with their food --WHICH can ALL be made gluten and dairy free! Had one tiny mistake with an order but the workers handled perfectly as we got free tacos..!?? Service impeccable, fast and insanely delicious, 10/10 favourite spot in Chch
I went to this place for lunch with a few friends it was absolutely delicious! one of the rare places that accommodates to coeliacs, which was really nice to see. will definitely be coming back with some friends or even by myself! would absolutely recommend the pork fried rice for those coeliac friends.
I had a lunch meeting today and decided to go to Aikmans. Great atmosphere, Guinness on tap and great service. Soph was bubbly and funny with a great knowledge of the menu for gluten free clients
The food at the Little River Inn was great! We enjoyed the confit belly pork and sirloin steak and both were tasty and well cooked. Service was very friendly and we didn't have to wait long. The dessert was outstanding - a fantastic orange almond cake which was also gluten-free. We would heartily recommend this restaurant but cannot comment on the accommodation as we didn't stay.

Really average service and meals. This place has definitely gone down hill. Ordered a salad with no croutons (gluten) arrived with croutons had to wait for a replacement by which time the entire table had finished their meals and I ate alone. Absolutely no apology at all. Coke was flat. Chips which have always been a favourite at joes garage were not pleasant at all. Will not be returning.
Went there for tea after a movie so booked a late meal and they were very accommodating their pizzas are very good and my girlfriend loves their gluten free pasta's,
would recommend going here for a meal
Wonderful service and the best corn fritters in town. I’m coeliac and they cater well for that
A must try, I usually dine in but today I picked up a takeaway

I recently spent a night at The Hurunui Hotel and loved every moment of it! The food is great and the staff are understanding about dietary needs informing you of your options. I really enjoyed my gluten free pizza! The rooms are inviting, warm and well set out. There is a bit of road noise but it's not bad later on at night and they provide ear plugs. I can't recommend The Hurunui Hotel highly enough! A night here really is an experience!
We didn't realize until we were inside that this place serves burgers and beers.
I have recently switched to a mostly gluten free diet for my health.
The vegan bacon burger was one of the best burgers I've had..... up there with re burger 🍔
The lady was lovely and had a smile on her face at all times.

Good sized meals at good prices. Had an issue with the steak being too cooked and they sorted it no worries. Beef Wellington is great. Have plenty of dietary options like gluten free and vegetarian

Had a great night (and first time trying Spagalimis) with my girlfriend last night! The atmosphere, food and cocktails were gorgeous. Our waiter Zoey was super helpful with sorting out our dietary requirements; I can confirm the gluten free bases, prawn and vegan pizza’s are delightful. Thanks again Spag’s!
We’ll be back 🍕😎🤌

If we could give them more than 5 stars we would! We will be back again and were so impressed by Ski Time
The rooms are spacious and very clean
The customer service was 10/10
The breakfast was amazing and had such a great selection of hot & cold food and even celiac friendly with a little gluten free spot and even a separate toaster
The dinner was also incredible and so delicious and we had the cutest waiter who was very attentive and friendly
Overall a really great experience thanks team we loved it! Josh & Soph
Overall great experience- great gluten free chicken and my partner enjoyed the pasta. Great service- the only thing I would fault is the pay wave system, even though I swiped the card I still got charged as pay wave and it wouldn't let me insert it, I guess it's just the paywave system but was disappointed. But the staff we were really lovely about it and Overall.
So impressed with the service, menu
choice and staff service last night. Wonderful food too and was impressed that the kitchen keeps one vat for gluten free and allergy cooking. Thanks for a great experience.
We ordered all three of the gluten free meals that are on the menu and shared them between two. It was too much food honestly but it was all so delicious that we ate it all at the expense of ordering dessert. We were there for our wedding anniversary and it was just right. The atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing. The staff member greeted us like friends he hadn’t met yet and was very attentive and kind. The music was in the background and had a lovely kiwi feel. The place was clean and the tables are spaced apart so you can chat comfortably. If you are looking for somewhere to eat this is the place. Value for money, great service, delicious food and comfy atmosphere. 10 out of 10 would visit again!
The first thing that stands out is the design of the building: it is striking. It is welcoming on the inside. The menu is comprehensive. There is a good selection of gluten free dishes. I had the calamari. My partner had the non gluten free fish and chips. Ordering was straight forward. Food was brought to our group in reasonable time given the size of our group and how busy the lunchtime crowd was on a particularly cold, wet Saturday.
