    We were offered gluten free options last night...but declined.

    The starters are vege...garlic bread pizza and then mushroom risotto balls

    There was one main in the 3 that was vege...again a mushroom pasta
    There is also a carbonara...which is topped with 2 or 3 slices of bacon...I guess you could ask for no bacon as it wasnt laced through it all,simply placed on top.

    Dependant on whether your friend eats gelatine then I would say possibly the shot puddings are not suitable because of that.

    all in all as I said earlier....fab food...slow service...but it certainly wouldnt put me off doing it again next year.
    frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!
