Pho Cheltenham offers a brilliant setting in a lovely location, perfect for a relaxed dining experience.
The food is consistently praised as brilliant, fresh, and packed with flavor, with great portion sizes and speedy service.
A standout feature is that about 98% of the menu is gluten free, making it an excellent choice for coeliac diners. The restaurant is accredited by Coeliac UK and staff are knowledgeable and proactive about allergies, ensuring a safe and worry-free experience for those with gluten intolerance, including children.
The menu includes a wide variety of Vietnamese dishes like pho, curries, the amazing rice bowls, and fresh rolls, with many vegan and dairy-free options as well.
I would highly recommend Pho Cheltenham for its delicious, healthy food, excellent service, and outstanding gluten-free options.
Lovely gluten free brownie and a delicious ginger drink. Brownie was one of the best I have had - lovely and gooey. I have marked down though as the gluten free food was alongside gluten containing food and my daughter, who is a severe coeliac was worried about cross contamination and so was unable to eat there. Menu had lots of lovely sounding options for lunch. Would like to see gluten free cakes on top shelf, in a separate cabinet or covered with glass domes to avoid the risk of cross contamination. Also not sure if there were separate utensils for gluten free food or not - if there were then great but if not perhaps have different colour utensils in a separate container to avoid cross contamination. Great service and lovely cafe.
The best choice of gluten free options I have ever seen, fantastic burger, the meat melts in your mouth, amazing onion rings. Great atmosphere, friendly staff
If you are looking for Gluten Free fish and chip then I would recommend this place. On the last Monday of every month it’s GF fish and chips day and they are delicious. Quick service and staff are friendly. Been here a few times and enjoy it every time.
I love it when independent cafes get it right. Really nice staff who clearly care about their customers. The cakes and pastries are incredible and lots of gluten free options. Highly recommend.
I've been to Once Upon A Tea Room multiple times and always have a a fantastic time. Most recently we went for a Christmas afternoon tea and then a takeaway pudding club and both were fabulous. The atmosphere and service in the tea room are always wonderful, and the food is spectacular. They cater for all manner of dietary requirements as long as you give them notice and I know many people who have said their dairy and gluten free scones are some of the best they've ever had! You pay a reasonable price for really yummy food, a lovely setting, and there's always something a little different on the menu but it absolutely pays off! I can't recommend this place highly enough and often point people in its direction.
3 out of 4 meals of fish and chips were very good. The gluten free fish was inedible batter hard and fish dry. This meant my husband who is coeliac only had chips! We are very disappointed as we have had delicious gluten free fish from this restaurant in the past
We would not be confident to have gluten free food from this restaurant again.
So as my finance is gluten free and I am dairy and egg intolerant we love the bottle of sauce. The staff filled us with so much confidence and the end result was blimming amazing. My finance will tell you to have gluten free chips and a burger in a bun that actually is nice is 1 in a million so deffo gets our recommendation. Good value, busy great atmosphere all be it a younger than us crowd we loved it. Will be visiting again.
Superb chain restaurant for our party - one of whom needed gluten-free and another FODMAP-friendly foods. Lovely smiley waiting staff, helpful and attentive service, and delicious French-style dinner. Very happy! It was my parents' first time ever at a Côte (?!) and they had such a good experience, they're keen to repeat the experience at another branch soon.

Amongst the intensity of all the wedding planning, the cake was our little haven of joy! The Vanilla Pod Bakery provided a gold plated service along with gorgeous variety of flavours for gluten AND dairy free tiers. The experience was fun, stress-free and an absolute delight to create and taste! Thank you girls. X
My wife and I went in the first time for a Saturday morning breakfast. We both ordered a Super 6 English breakfast with lattes. The waitress was very welcoming and smiley and took us to our table, the service was quick, and each latte also came with complimentary chocolate, the breakfasts soon followed. The Super 6 breakfast included, 1 fried egg, 1 sausage, 1 bacon, 1 hash brown, baked beans and toast (ready buttered). Blue light holders receive 10% upon request and this is advertised on the menus. The cost was £6.79 breakfast and £3.25, the breakfast and drinks menu is extensive so offers something for everyone. Gluten free options also available.
Overall I enjoyed my meal here.
- The food was tasty.
- Service was average.
- Gluten free options available but told they were small.
I ordered a beer and a pizza with 3 different meat toppings. I enjoyed my food. Wait times seemed to be average for waiting for food and to get the bill at the end. I would have preferred to pay via a website or prior just so I don't have to flag down the waiter at the end of the meal.
A note for those that are gluten free: My friend was told the gluten free pizza was a fixed size whereas the standard pizzas can be adjusted in size. They were also told that the size was disappointing and that they would most likely need to order more to be full. Based on the garlic bread my friend did order I would assume the server was being truthful as it was quite tiny. So there are gluten free options but the options aren't great themselves it seems.
Really impressed with WoodKraft. We’ve been here for breakfast multiple times and the staff have always been fantastic. Service is well priced and quick with the quality of food above and beyond. There’s also fantastic Gluten Free options and we’ve never had an issue with cross contamination or anything else of the sorts. Would happily come here again and again.
Came today to catch up with a friend , had a lovely bagel each and shared a piece of yummy cake. Gluten free options were good too the courgette and avocado cake was very tasty.
Absolutely delicious food, beautifully presented (nearly all gluten free), superb silver service: attentive with top notch attention to detail, yet friendly and welcoming. We had such a pleasurable lunch, so glad we found this place. Perfectly placed for a stroll around Montpellier gardens afterwards.
Uncomfortably cold visit. The heating in the coldest day of the year was broken.
We never have been so cold and uncomfortable. No worming to the customers on online booking that heating is out of order.
Also very poor choice of gluten free selection.
Very disappointed visit, which meant to be a birthday surprise.
Food and experience was amazing as always. Abbie's knowledge and discretion in dealing with my celiac disease and needs was a very refreshing experience and makes me feel happy and safe to dine here.
Lovely cafe doing excellent breakfast and lunch food, plus good coffee and cakes. We went both mornings of our stay in Cheltenham and weren't disappointed. It's clear why it's such a popular choice on Bath Road. It has an inviting atmosphere and, like a lot of places in the area, is dog and child friendly. It was great to see that meats are locally sourced and that there were even gluten free options on the menu. They've thought of everything here! Truly a 5* cafe.
Amazing service amazing food can’t say enough good things
going through the gluten free options on the menu with a personal touch
Keep it up we will be back soon 🙏
I have never been to a cheese restaurant but having visited Domaine 16 I realised I have been missing out! They offer cheese in most ways you think to have to it and I would highly recommend the Tartiflette. Comparable to those I've had in France and although it was rich it wasn't heavy. We even had room for the dark chocolate fondue afterwards which came with marshmallows, banana, poached pear and gluten free madalins. Absolutely delicious.
A cute little cafe set across several floors, with a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. They have great gluten-free and vegan options, and the coffee is excellent. Perfect for a relaxed visit!
The best gluten free fish and chips in Cheltenham! Terry and the team at the Norwood Fish Bar are friendly, welcoming and polite. I order gluten free fish and chips almost every week from there, I’ve tried them all locally and this is by far the best, they always accommodate special requests and phone orders and doesn’t charge a sky high fee for quality ingredients, I’ve heard customers travel from Gloucester and Stroud for these!
Delightful food, great atmosphere and service. All at a really reasonable price.
Does amazing gluten free options for my coeliac partner. Now just found out it delivers also! Amazing.
Highly recommend this place to anyone, far exceeds the big chains like barburrito.
Lovely local family run business. Not many places offer gluten and dairy free options, so this is a real treat. Lots of different options to choose from. Friendly, lovely staff too
I recently purchased some of the soft brown gluten free bread to takeaway from The Artisan Baker. This is the best GF bread I've ever had! So fluffy and delicious! Good job x
Wolfies did a fantastic job of catering for a large conference that we held at BPE. We ordered lunch catering for 50 people and breakfast rolls for 40 and the food was delicious, well labelled and arrived ahead of time! Thanks so much to Rachel and the team for taking our last minute booking - it was much appreciated by everyone. Fantastic that they were so mindful of our guests that were gluten free, vegetarian and no pork too!
Fantastic service and amazing food. Their knowledge was second to none. Amazing catering for gluten free as well - my wife could eat 100% worry free!
Wine flight was also incredible. Some amazing quality wines.
The atmosphere was really welcoming and the staff were extremely professional.
Celiac friendly
