Huw was such a delight!! Was so knowable about my allergies and what I could have (celiac safe). Get this man a raise!!! Such a lovely atmosphere for a girly catch up on a Monday. Will be back!
From the get go, our server Claudio was EXCELLENT! My partner is Coeliac intolerant and we always struggle to find anywhere to eat because of gluten containing foods. Claudio was on the money with everything. She was very efficient in her work and made the experience very warming. My kids had an amazing time and so did my partner. Would defiantly visit again to this establishment. 5 star service, food was brilliant!
I came into the oracle yesterday and was greeted by a server called Orin. He was very helpful with my gluten allergy. The food was very good and arrived quickly.
Visited here with friends (their choice rather than ours) but what a lovely surprise this place was! As gluten free I'm always nervous about trying new places but the menu is marked up and quite a few options.
I opted for the Peanut Crunch Salad and some Hashed Potatoes. The salad was beautiful! I'd happily have that every day. It's so clean and fresh.
Warning about the Jazzy Broccoli with spicy sambal! I nabbed a bit from our friend and it was so spicy!
£20 for some chicken strips and chips that were McDonald’s level quality. There’s one gluten free item on the menu- advertised as a “gluten free cheeseburger”.. yet I was charged extra for having cheese on my cheese burger.. I didn’t ask for extra.. they charged extra for cheese on a cheeseburger. Small and dry burger for £16.
Put me off TGIFs for life and I make sure dissuade others from going to any other TGIFs.
This place would get you freshly made products along with a good customer service and a cozy family atmosphere. You can get gluten free products, vegetarian, etc. Easy access within the community and a small terrace just outside. Prices are just right for the quality provided.
Went here because we thought they catered for glutenfree, but although so.e of the breakfast could be adapted for a GF person, there were no cakes or baking available
Very restricted.
I also thought the staff were rushed and trying to get you in and out fast. It was very busy though.
Great place to grab lunch. Order on a screen like macdonalds type system. Select fillings individually to make up yout burrito. Burrito bowls available for gluten free options. Loads of choice of fillings and good value for money. Service was good. We sat outside and people watched. Overall would definitely recommend
Authentic Mauritian Cuisine & Warm Hospitality!
I visited Flavor of Mauritius with a group of 22 and opted for the two-course meal, as it was my first time trying Mauritian cuisine.
For my starter, I had the gluten-free platter, and for my main, I chose the Chicken Daube. I also ordered an extra dish, the Chicken & Egg Upside Down Bowl, since I wanted to try something different. To drink, I had a cocktail, though I can’t quite remember the name.
All the food was delicious, and I really enjoyed the variety of flavors. The restaurant atmosphere was great, and the bar near the entrance added a nice touch to the setting.
It looked like a family-run business, with both partners managing it. They were warm and accommodating, making us feel welcome. The two servers looking after our table were also diligent, attentive, and quick to resolve any issues, which made the experience even better.
Overall, Flavor of Mauritius offers amazing food, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent service. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience authentic Mauritian cuisine in Reading!
Excellent supportive advance planning for an 80th birthday big family meal. Gluten free, vegan, 'fussy eaters' and last minute changes all catered for brilliantly. Great service from all staff on the day too. Thank you for such a memorable day. We made a photo book!
The quality of the cakes are just insane - whoever is making them is very talented. I love this place so much it is literally my favourite aspect of Reading. Thank you so so so much for making high quality, gluten free perfectly-sweetened desserts! I love you guys!
Every time I come here with my wife or friends the experience is great. The food is fabulous and even this description was exceeded tonight by what my wife described as the best Gluten Free pizza she has ever had. But more than that the staff are fabulous. We had a slight issue with my wife's cocktail which I will not explain because it is not important..... what is important is that the staff listened and sorted it........ thank you. The atmosphere is wonderful and don't get me started on their mango beer and black lager.....OMG!! This place goes under the radar but is better than possibly every other place serving pizza in Reading.....one of my faves is the pear and gorgonzola pizza.
Last night we had a hearing dog (in training) . We were told as we entered that dogs are not allowed in the restaurant. We explained the situation and the new manager was really understanding. We sat and were seen to really quickly for drinks and were given a few minutes to choose our meals. Very well done . We found all the staff to be very attentive and professional. I , personally am coeliac. The manager explained the whole menu and also gave me other options. When meal was served it was pointed out . The manager personally came and asked how our meals were and had a chat for couple of minutes. Very good experience. Thankyou.
Calling all wholefood loving, gluten struggling vegans.......
If you would like homemade delicious nutritious food served in an amazingly friendly environment, then come on down.
This is a delightful place to eat with superb authentic food and atmosphere.
Where else can you get homemade, gluten free, vegan, absolutely delicious carrot cake? You have to try this place to see how good it is. It's a hidden gem.
Popped in for a quick lunch. Got the second table. Food came out super fast. They let me know the gluten free options. The food was absolutely delicious. The tables very quickly filled up and there was a steady stream of customers getting take away. Service was great. If we're in this part of Reading again will definitely come back.
Brilliant place, with a proper comfy lived in feel. Loads of room in the garden. Great beer selection with pints you won't find elsewhere in town. Good, affordable prices too. And for those that need it, a choice of gluten free beers in cans.
Love this place. Had the famous cheesecake made to order for my wifes birthday. One of the finest things I have ever eaten.
They even did it gluten free for us.
Best meal I've eaten out for some time. I had a delicious curry bowl. Staff were very friendly and made sure they were catering to my gluten intolerance. I was impressed
Its a good student bar, a bit small for the campus size. There were many gluten free, vegan and vegeterian food option, very restricted options with meat.
Service and atmosphere were good.
Not a nice local pub vibe, more corporate. Would recommend the fox and hound. I stood at the bar but the bar woman rudely informed me 'there is a queue', weird queueing system at the bar and bar staff can be mean about it. Food is average and drink is average. Also, I had a friend who was coeliac and they made her check the kitchen to see if it was satisfactory rather than training staff to know it was satisfactory.
