Indigo is the absolute best option for the discerning gluten-free eater. We dined here last Thursday to celebrate my partners PhD graduation. His father is gluten intolerant, so we were really struggling to find a restaurant that also fit the occasion. Indigo delivered a truly spectacular menu fit for the celebration.
The service was attentive but not overbearing, the food was delicious and the ambience was really beautiful. Indigo overlooks the main hotel bar from an indoor terrace. You have a gorgeous view of the ground floor, and the spectacular flower arrangements.
I am not gluten free but I will absolutely be coming back here. Perfect for a date or small group.
Ambience : a nice place to spend time with friends.. nice environment. good music...photo booth was the place...
service was quick. staff was nice and humble.
One Aldwych. A beautiful hotel with an addition of a great bar. Staff are courteous and polite.
Service was fantastic but in a hotel of this callibre I would expect nothing else. Have been here several times, prices are as expected but catching up with an old friend at Christmas it was perfect! Cocktails were delicious.
The week before my 25th birthday was full of dinners and celebrating with friends. On the Thursday Jasiminne and I went to One Aldwych to test out their Spring Aperitivos collection cocktails, and the gluten-free and dairy-free menu at their informal restaurant; Indigo. Considering everything on the menu was gluten-free and dairy-free, we were both incredibly impressed with the choices available and the gorgeous surroundings of the hotel...
Chefs these days face an uphill struggle when trying to negotiate the dietary nuances of all their customers. Most people I know have one or more food intolerances and many of us compound that with dietary preferences. Woe betides the chef who can’t produce a decent vegetarian (with vegan option) tasting menu. I suspect I’m a little unsympathetic to the ‘preferences’ category. There are plenty of good vegetarian or flexitarian restaurants around now and my personal take is that those who chose a vegetarian or vegan diet shouldn’t demand things to suit themselves that might not appeal to those of us with a carnivorous bent.
This is not your ordinary afternoon tea. Don’t come if you are just looking for boring sandwiches and cakes that will give you a toothache. This tea set is based on Charlie and Chocolate factory musical. Be ready to be inspired! It is fun and delicious. Charlie & The Chocolate Factory Afternoon Tea x 1- £37.50
While enjoying a staycation at One Aldwych, my husband and I had dinner at Indigo. A full review of our entire meal and stay at the hotel is on my blog Sunny in London, however, the dinner was spectacular. I had the most perfectly cooked piece of lamb I have ever eaten in my life. Everything was truly 5 star!
Ate from the pre-theatre fixed menu and was sorely disappointed. Food was very plain indeed and my partner missed dessert as we ran out of time. Service was attentive though and the setting splendid. Would visit again to sample the a la carte menu.
Great Brunch. Very nice brunch... I like a poached egg that doesn't come soaking in water and placed just so on a circle cut of toast just looks kinda cool. You'll see carrot juice on the menu but you can get carrot ginger which is a treat and a good hangover cure. Service is excellent.
The London Restaurant Festival ran from 3rd to 17th October this year. The third year it has run, in my opinion, it was also the best Festival we had to date. It has grown from previous years and is now a real celebration of what British restaurants have to offer. Along with the 'main menu' events involving well-known and established restaurants, the 'side dishes' were an opportunity for new and less well-known restaurants to introduce themselves to a wider audience. In the latter category, there were some great finds and bargains to be had. In addition to this, it was an excellent opportunity to experience the cooking of top Michelin-starred chefs from different parts of the UK in London at affordable prices, including Sat Bains and Nathan Outlaw to name just a couple who cooked at Fortnum & Mason's. If you missed the Festival this year, I urge you to keep your eyes peeled for the 2012 event. Below is a round-up of some of my favourite events this year. Eat Film at The Covent Garden H
This place is absolutely perfect. The food is so good!! There are so many options for gluten-free food. The service is spectacular!! Our waitress was lovely and charming! And the place itself is so nice and comfortable, and when we were there, there was a live single who did covers for great songs. Very recommended!!
This place is hands down the best place I have been for a gluten free dinner …. Ever!
They did a ‘Cornish’ theme, with all food sourced from Devon and Cornwall. It was all absolutely delicious and the quality and presentation amazing. My husband was equally impressed and commented that unlike other GF foods being a little less like the original, this was amazing unconditionally. The chef was outstanding. Wish this was closer to home. But will be a regular when I am back in London!
We went to Indigo for a special birthday breakfast and were not disappointed. It's pricey but worth it. We got rosti and waffles. Both were excellent, balanced with good accompaniments. The real highlight was the service. Incredible from start to finish. A wonderful place for a special date. They even brought us a little birthday cake surprise at the end.
Thoroughly enjoyed the experience here. Everything on the menu is gluten and dairy free. We ordered off the set menu, two courses for £35/person. That said by the time we added sides, a couple of drinks etc the bill was almost twice what we were orignlinally expecting and we weren't lavish. It is quite upmarket too as a restaurant. All that said if I was in London again I would definitely go back!
My wife has recently been diagnosed as Coeliac and we struggle to find a restaurant that can cater for her. It was our wedding anniversary and I wanted to treat her to a fantastic dinner.
This place is amazing! The food was outstanding and the service was super. We will be back.
We absolutely enjoyed our evening at Indigo. The staff was very kind, we felt very comfortable. The food was incredible, ingredients were super fresh and didn’t need any seasoning, that truly says something! The pavlova was a work of art as well! Can’t wait to come back ☺️
Indigo is located on the first floor of the one Aldwych hotel. It’s a mezzanine floor looking out to the bar downstairs, slight lower ceilings with Nice interior, Warm welcome.
Staff were very friendly and accommodating.
We have a show at 7.30 and opted for the theatre menu.
The tomato salad was good as was the chicken terrine.
The pork dish was presented beautifully with a little cup of mushrooms, pancetta and peas.
Sauce was excellent.
An excellent choice for dining around Theaterland.
Lovely setting and excellent service. Half our party eat from the pre-theatre menu and half from the a la carte. The highlights were the fish and chips, where the chips were marvellous and the slow cooked lamb which amazingly was crispy as well as beautifully tender inside. We also had a cocktail in the bar before which was tasty and well presented. Overall service very good as well.
We had an awesome time at Indigo’s.
We booked a table at 5.30 for pre-theatre, which was perfectly handled by the restaurant.
The waiters are kind, polite and they make sure you have everything you need during your dinner.
The restaurant offers a pre-theatre menu with 2/3 courses, it’s affordable and quick.
The food is excellent and the white wine we tasted was very good.
I recommend this restaurant for a special occasion or if you need to go to the theatre (just in front, by the way).
We had breakfast here and enjoyed everything. Gluten free menu that tastes fantastic.
