The Cook - Hamilton

The restaurant offers a good selection of gluten-free options with a separate fryer. The service is excellent and the staff is knowledgeable about gluten-free options.

There are limited gluten-free options available, but the menu does offer dairy-free cheese. There are only a few choices that are suitable for those with gluten allergies, dairy allergies, and a vegetarian diet. However, the service is excellent!

There are plenty of gluten-free options available at this restaurant. They take precautions by using a separate fryer to ensure the safety of those with Coeliac disease. I have dined here multiple times and have always been satisfied. The atmosphere is great and the staff is friendly.

The Cook is in Hamilton, New Zealand. The portions are big over there, in fact I had the biggest chicken breast I've ever seen in my life. So how did this eclectic restaurant/bar shape up in the foodie stakes?

Service was rated 4 out of 5, ambiance 3.5 out of 5, and the food 4 out of 5. This restaurant is a good choice for unwinding after a long day at work. They offer a great selection of craft beers. We tried the inkfish salad and the cherry and mushroom pizza with kimchi dressing. The squid in the salad was perfectly cooked with a light coating, and the salad had a crisp dressing that complemented it well. The pizza had delicious toppings and a thin, crispy crust. The upper part of the restaurant, where most patrons were drinking, was a bit dark for a meal, but suitable for drinks.
