Gluten-free doesn’t mean missing out on the good stuff. 🍝
At Rick’s Place, it’s still about the things that matter most. A proper plate of pasta, plenty of flavour and a meal you’d happily order whether you eat gluten-free or not.
Because dietary-friendly food should simply taste like great food.
Come in, grab a seat and enjoy it for yourself.

Reviews like this really mean a lot to us. ❤️
For some people, choosing a restaurant is as simple as picking what looks good. For others, allergies and dietary requirements can make eating out a lot more complicated.
That’s why hearing that someone felt welcomed, looked after and still got to enjoy food full of flavour is exactly the kind of feedback we love receiving.

There’s a reason this one gets people talking. 🤤
Our lamb shank is slow cooked with 23 ingredients, giving it plenty of time to build that rich, deep flavour and fall-apart tenderness.
Served up warm, generous and exactly the kind of meal you want when you’re craving proper comfort food.
Come hungry. This one deserves your full attention. 🍽️

One for the seafood lovers. 🍝🦐
Pasta Allo Scoglio brings together prawns, fish, mussels and calamari with tomato, garlic and chilli for a bowl that’s packed with flavour from the first forkful to the last.
It’s exactly the kind of dish we mean when we say dietary-friendly dining doesn’t have to feel like a compromise.
Come hungry. We’ll take care of the rest.

Going out for a meal should be something everyone at the table can look forward to.

So when one person has specific dietary needs and another can eat just about anything, you can still sit down, order together and enjoy the meal together. ❤️
That’s what dining at Rick’s is all about.
