I went last night with my other half for his birthday and my newly diagnosed gf/df 9 yr old. Oh my word, how lovely to be able to eat everything on the menu without worrying!
Probably best menu I've seen showing allergens. Dishes for gf, df, paleo, vegan and kids menu too, no complicated spreadsheets here (I'm looking at you cafe rouge!)
Food was outstanding, we shared prawns with smoked garlic mayo to start, steak and poussin for mains and mini beef burger and chicken burger for my daughter with sweet potato fries. Particularly impressive was the free filtered-on-site still or sparking water, the organic prosecco which didn't give me a headache, and the soft drinks without added sugar, sweeteners, preservatives or other additives. My daughter would mainline sugar if she could but she loved them. And my partner was very happy about the ice cold glasses; one of his bugbears are bars/restaurants who serve cold drinks in warm glasses. For dessert the vegan 'cheesecakes' were out of this world, can't wait to try all the flavours
Amazing food, friendly staff, lovely decor. Would thoroughly recommend a visit, whether or not you have any special dietary needs
Always love finding a 100% gluten free place! This little gem also has vegan and vegetarian options. The food was delectable! Would highly recommend, also has a great atmosphere and staff.
I was lucky enough to go to The Willow for the second time yesterday and the team and food did not disappoint. Whilst the unique angle of this restaurant is that food is designed and to suit any dietary requirements, that doesn't mean that they are only for those who avoid gluten or are vegan. The food is sourced, cooked and combined to get maximum flavour and enjoyment, and it's a brucie bonus if you avoid certain foods because generally you don't have to worry what's in it! There is also a great choice of organic wines and beers - although I was driving so choices of wonderful teas and coffees was great.
We had some lovely platters of food to share for an event but all the choices were from the menu. Many people think 'healthy food' means deprivation but The Willow delivers high quality, thoughtfully combined, tasty food that 'just so happens' (well I'm know it's carefully planned) to be not be full of rubbish. Oh and the retractable roof is great when the weather is nice too!
