Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A real treat to have a menu that is completely gluten free. Pot pie was delicious and the bonus of a range of gluten free beers. Restaurant is small but atmospheric and comfortable. My wife found her winter mess to be far too sweet and...my daughter’s kids NFC chicken lacked a bit of seasoning if I’m being super critical, but all of my food was great. The staff were friendly, polite and the service couldn’t be faulted. Would definitely recommend for a gluten safe tasty mealMore

We went as a group of 5 on 23 April 23. In the group one person is gluten and dairy free, one person who’s a vegetarian and one person is a vegan. The food was fantastic, we started with bread board which is vegan so...was suitable for everyone. Three of us had the Sunday lunch, Beer-braised beef short rib and two had the Glamorgan Potato Cake. The Yorkshire puddings that came with the beef we gluten and dairy free and we’re also delicious. This was probably the first restaurant we have eaten in where we have not had to double and triple check the ingredients to make sure it is in fact gluten and dairy free. Thank you Niche for some wonderful food.More

We visit every year whilst in London for a weekend before Christmas and always look forward to our visit at Niche. As ever the food was delicious and there was no problem with the service. However, the place was really really cold. We could not...wait to finish our meal to go back to the hotel and get warm. A number of other customers were clearly cold as well as they had their coat on. It’s a real pity as this did ruin an experience we were looking forward to; it is unpleasant to be uncomfortable when you go for a meal. We will come back next year and hope it will be different.More

Pleasant but expensive. The food was nice but a little disappointing. My dish came with creamy mash but actually it was a drizzle rather than a proper portion. Same with the vegetables. Hungry a couple of hours later sadly. There were four of us and...the bill was £200. Service was very slow too.More

Visited on Thu, 02 November 2023 Very, very special restaurant as 100% Gluten Free. Much appreciated the opportunity to drop in to the restaurant a few days before our visit to select our table. On arrival, our request to store our coats until the end...of the meal, was courteously carried out. Tasty food, nicely presented. Generous portions. Professional, friendly service.More

Niche was recommended by a friend, so while working away, a colleague and I went for dinner. The service was excellent, we were well looked after. My colleague had the asparagus for starters and I had the pate. It was so nice, and we were...each able to sample the others. For main I had the burger, which was lovely, my colleague had the Schnitzel, again both were great. I highly recommend Niche.More

Just finished dining there. No issues with wait time. Staff lovely. Restaurant near full so the staff were busy. Such a joy to have full gluten free and not to worry re cross contamination. Not cheap but that was due to wines etc. would be...happy to eat there again but I am out of time.More

Fabulous cocktails but poor quality, expensive food. We both had the chicken pie and it was dry despite the side of gravy and there wasn’t much chicken in it. Altogether a very disappointing meal.

Sadly have to agree with previous reviewers. The concept is good but the product poor. We were the first people in the restaurant but offered the table at the back near the toilet. We had to argue hard to be moved to another table. We...ordered a bread basket which I enjoyed as usually can’t order this due to my gluten intolerance. For mains my husband had a burger and I had a lamb dish. Both the burger and the lamb were very over cooked and I’d say inedible. Certainly the cutlery provided couldn’t cut through my lamb. The burger bun was poor and the bits of salad wilted and uninteresting. The fennel with my lamb was again so tough it couldn’t be cut through. Both the asparagus starter and the Eaton mess pudding were ok but nothing too special. For the price it was certainly not worth the effort to go to a specialist GF restaurant. Such a shame..More

Very disappointing. Booked well in advance but given a table stuck in a corner. Arrived at 6pm and told some mains had run out!!! Ordered bread plate to share - some were underbaked so inedible!! Mains were well presented but nothing special. All in all...a very disappointing visit.More

Myself and my partner wanted to attend this restaurant as I have coeliac disease and we could not fault the food that arrived on time. During the visit, we were served by a waitress who was clearly NOT happy to be at work. When ordering...drinks, I simply turned over the menu to view the options and the waitress decided it was acceptable to start tapping the table with her pen. Her rude and arrogant attitude lasted until the end of our visit, when she barged past my partner and shoved him out of the way so she could get through a gap big enough for two people! Whilst tapping the pen on the table, we actually asked her to add on a Mac & Cheese side on to our order… which surprisingly did not arrive with our mains as she was too interested in tapping than to write this part of the order down. At this point I approached another waitress and she asked the chef to make the Mac & Cheese. As this eventually arrived when we had finished our meals, the nice waitress took it off our bill. Overall, great selection of food and an exciting experiencing for someone with coeliac, however for the price, the attitude and service from that member of staff was shocking.More
