"I had wanted to check this place out for a little while so I decided to check it out today. In terms of staff, the employee taking my order clearly didn't want to be there and was ready for bed by, which to be honest I don't usually mind as long as there is no problem with the food. However, it was quite annoying that she didn't provide the whipped cream that I'd asked for on my hot chocolate (but oh well my thighs will thank me). But on the contrary, the employee bringing the food to my table was very friendly, welcoming and attentive. Back to the hot chocolate, I don't know what it was exactly because on paper it was great, it was smooth and creamy with a generous portion and tasted as though it contained real chocolate and not simply power. Yet, it just wasn't all that great for some reason and I can't put my finger on the reason, I actually considered not finishing it but I hate wasting food so down the hatch it went. As for the Belgian chocolate waffle, this was great, freshly made and drizzled with both milk and white chocolate, it was delightfully tasty with a crisp exterior and a slight chew to the centre. It came with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, which I was pleasantly surprised to see visible real vanilla pod specks in. The ice cream was very rich and creamy, which complemented the waffle well. The waffle and hot chocolate came to an affordable £5 which I feel is very reasonable for a dessert parlour. I will be sure to visit again, most likely to sample the crêpes."

"We 've just had the most wonderful meal at The Rainbow Inn in Allsley, near coventry. In all honesty this was one of the best roast dinners we 've had (sorry mum! and not only that, it was entirely gluten free. My daughter is a coeliac and eating out becomes a stressful affair at times. Ive never felt so safe taking her to eat somewhere. The marvellous chef, Chef Jon, is a credit to The Rainbow Inn and serves a fully gluten free Sunday menu complete with childrens options. Everything gluten free. My husband opted for gammon and said it was the nicest hed ever had. It melted in the mouth. The yorkshires were enormous, the apricot stuffing was a dream. I had roast beef and couldnt fault anything at all... and my dessert of profiteroles was delicious! They were actually like little tiny fresh donuts... and of course fully gluten free. We also sampled some of the home made gluten free bread which was enjoyed by all. Not at all the crumbly shop bought stuff. Having seen the chef by chance on Instagram, i was aware of his first hand insight into catering for coeliacs and the importance of cross contamination control. He went above and beyond to make us all, but certainly my daugther, feel super safe. He prepared a special pudding selection for her which i think she will remember for a long time. She had a little portion of all the pudding options and when i asked her which was her favourite she simply said all of them . We will most definitely be returning to sample the friday night fish and chips menu which again is entirely gluten free."
