At a glance
An independent two-storey restaurant and bar in a converted church and school off Lymington High Street, run by husband-and-wife team Peter and Nicola Leyland-Jones, cooking seasonal British food. Open for coffee, lunch and dinner Tuesday to Saturday.
Gluten-free options
The restaurant confirms gluten free is accommodated. The menus carry no gluten free marks by design: Nicola Leyland-Jones says the kitchen prefers to discuss allergens and preferences with each guest individually, on the grounds that one menu does not cater for everyone. Diners on gluten free directories describe a good choice of dishes and an accommodating kitchen.
Before you order
Ring ahead and say you are coeliac — that is how this kitchen wants to work, and the phone is answered by the owners. Nothing published describes how gluten free dishes are kept apart from the crumbed and pastry dishes on the same menu, so ask what changes in the kitchen when your dish is cooked. The published menus are samples and change.
Worth asking?
Are fried dishes for gluten free diners cooked separately from the crumbed ones? Which dishes on today's menu can be made gluten free?
