A cosy coffee shop that serves excellent loose leaf tea and amazing cakes. Seriously the carrot cake was delicious! It's a lovely place to take a break from exploring the city or shopping and has reasonable prices. Gluten free and vegan options are also available and delicious. Well worth a visit. The staff were friendly but not as welcoming as they could have been, they were pretty busy.
This café is a gluten-free paradise, offering a fully gluten-free menu that delights both coeliac guests and those without dietary restrictions. The exceptionally good gluten-free bagels, including standout pulled pork and Brie cranberry varieties, are so authentic that even non-gluten-free visitors rave about them. Paired with phenomenal coffee and a calm, chill atmosphere, it creates a welcoming spot where gluten-free dining feels effortless and enjoyable.

Hopefully Made us a favourite place for lunch or just coffee in Shrewsbury. All gluten free (which I need) and always space to sit. Dog friendly is a bonus and they use bread from GFB which is gluten free and like proper bread. Dropped a star for service as on the last couple of visits specific requests (two forks to share a dish for instance) have been forgotten or ignored. Still our top place for lunch in Shrewsbury.
Nestled in a quirky historic building, this spot offers a calm, welcoming atmosphere perfect for those seeking gluten-free dining. The menu shines with amazing gluten-free options, including an excellent flatbread and the best gluten-free bread my daughter has ever had.

Friendly, accommodating service enhances the comfort, making it a standout choice for gluten-free guests.

Popped in for a new year's day brunch, dog and gluten free friendly. The food is locally sourced, seasonal and very tasty although I found that there were only a few vegetarian options available. I opted for the mushrooms which were fantastic. I like that they have an option of a small or large portion as I often only want a smaller meal. Overall very good, tasty food with super service.

Amazing!!! Food was so delicious and a good portion size. Really good value for money. Really great gluten free options as well ❤️❤️
While this spot boasts a chic urban garden vibe and a stylish mix of modern grungy and industrial elements, its approach to gluten-free options is notably limited. Despite the inviting atmosphere with booths and a cool downstairs bar, those seeking gluten-free pizzas may find the experience challenging, as the kitchen no longer offers gluten-free bases and is unaccommodating to bringing outside gluten-free items. The focus remains on their regular pizzas, which feature crispy edges and spicy, tasty flavor, but gluten-free diners might find the options and service less supportive here.

My wife who is gluten intolerant ordered a pizza, (Gluten Free). She informed the person serving us that she is Gluten Intolerant and she assured my wife. Within 1 hour of having eaten the pizza my wife had an allergic reaction to the pizza which was obviously not GF as stated on the menu. People with allergies are dependent on restaurants getting it right to avoid serious reactions or other. I did make contact with the restaurant and at this time they have not responded to my call concerns.
With one of the most varied gluten-free menus in the area, this cozy spot offers an inviting atmosphere enhanced by a stylish interior and an eye-catching aquarium-style backsplash. The attentive service demonstrates a strong understanding of allergies, ensuring a safe and enjoyable dining experience.

I went here with my husband prior to going to a gig in Shrewsbury. I had been a year or so previously and knew they were gluten free friendly.
Firstly the service was dreadful. We were left sitting at our table for some time and eventually had to chase around to find someone who was willing to take our order. The starter arrived within a reasonable time, but there was a 40 minute wait for our pizzas. Again we had to chase around to find someone to ask about our meal. Eventually we were told they would put our pizzas in the oven as soon as the next lot came out. The pizzas eventually arrived, but at that point we were already late for the gig and knew we would miss a good part of the concert.
My husband said his pizza was OK, however my gluten free pizza was awful. The base was really soggy and tough. It was so dense and leathey in texture that I could not cut it. It tasted like sawdust and looked undercooked. No one asked us if our meals were OK and we could not find anyone to complain to. As so much time of our time had been wasted, eventually we quickly paid and left.
I was very disappointed in both the food and service and will not go back to Pizza Express.

We held a baby shower at the Riverbank on Sunday 23rd June. We had the whole upstairs area for 2 hours, with a little extra time at the start to get drinks. We were able to decorate the room in advance. I can not rate this experience highly enough, from the moment I booked the venue were very accommodating and easy to communicate with. The staff on the day were a delight to work with. We opted for the cold buffet and the guest all enjoyed there food, they also catered for vegan and gluten free. The price can for this can not be matched anywhere else in town.

Very authentic place and great quality food. We ordered a platter for two, and although it's seems expensive, we struggled to finish it!
The appetizers were also very good. Bacon bites, fried pickles, kids corndog and cheese pretzel were superb, but the Mac and cheese was something else!
They were also very attentive to one of our guests gluten free needs, double checking the intolerance chart with us.
There's so much on the menu I want to try, so we'll definitely be back!

Last night was my third dining experience with Osteria and it was truly incredible. The staff were amazing and as always, the food was delicious. Two of us had one of their pizzas and the other 2 had other dishes. They too were very happy with their selections. We also had starters and everyone loved what they chose. I had the calamari and it truly was the very best I've ever had. Two of us also had desserts. The lemon cheesecake was divine!
I tell all of our customers who are visiting Shrewsbury and looking for dinner recommendations about Osteria and I tell them all it's the best pizza I've had since we returned from our honeymoon in Italy in 2016.
For those with food allergens, I know how scary it can be to eat out. My husband is coeliac and we struggle to find restaurants with proper protocols to limit contamination. When I enquired about their protocols I was thrilled to learn how seriously they take food allergens and the lengths they go to limit possible contamination. I was also impressed by their menu selections for those with a gluten allergy. Most restaurants have a limited selection of gluten-free options. He has now eaten with them twice and has not experienced any of the symptoms he experiences when he has been contaminated at other restaurants.
Perhaps the best praise I can give them is to say that if they ever close their doors I think all of Shrewsbury will go into mourning. Between the incredible staff, the cosy atmosphere and the authentic Italian food they serve, I can't think of any other place I would rather take friends for dinner.

Great locoation overlooking the river. Really enjoyed our meals freshly cooked and to a high standard. Gluten free options.

Stopped here for a lunch on my way home. Not really a fan of salad but the beetroot salad they do for starters on the set menu is actually quite good. They even serve gluten free bread for starters with dips and did a tasty chicken Shish for mains. Would definitely recommend to anyone who likes a good Mediterranean cuisine. Big shoutout to the friendly staff who work here too!

A teeny cafe with a BIG heart! ♥️
We were on a short break in Shrewsbury and our Airbnb was not far from Darwin's. So an ideal stopping point when we were tired and thirsty! As tempted as I was to have a Pina colada milkshake, I went for the non-alcoholic version while my son had a peanut butter one. I was also able to have a delicious piece of gluten-free carrot cake. They cater for dietary requirements really well. We enjoyed it so much we made a plan on the spot to return after check-out on the Saturday morning!! A full English really set us up for a looonngg day of travelling. Despite being ever so busy - both staff were so friendly and we bought some Shrewsbury biscuits for family (including a Vegan version, wish there was a gluten-free one but I know myself how hard it is to bake with GF flours!) Great value for money and proper home cooked food with quality ingredients. We loved our visit and hope to be back soon.
