16.01.2022 Your Coeliac Safe Space . Gluten Free doesn't have to mean bland, dry, smaller or overpriced. In our kitchen, we make sure that every gluten free dish is just as amazing as the Non-GF version (if there is one). We do this by sourcing the best GF ingredients available (including our delicious GF bread from @deekshealthfoods), always focusing on flavour and texture, and we never charge extra for #glutenfree, ever!! . GF dishes and our freshly baked treats are prepared in designated GF areas of our kitchen by a well-trained and passionate team, to ensure they're #coeliacfriendly. This means that every person in your group can relax and enjoy a delicious and stress-free meal knowing that everyone is taken care of

We got Baked Eggs no. 7, house made chili con carne with two free-range eggs with a side of sourdough bread. Feeling like pizza? We have the Brekkie Pizza with maple bacon, pesto, and fried egg. Feeling like something Asian, hearty and flavourful? Try our infamous Filipino Adobo Bowl, chicken and pork braised in soy and garlic served with rice, kale curry, mixed mushrooms and deviled eggs. Everything can be made #glutenfree with NO extra cost!

14.01.2022 Adam, When we opened Dovetail on Overend in 2014, Rejoice and I could see there was a big gap in the market. Brisbane already had a lot of great cafes, but we found that often cafes were either food focused or coffee focused. It was really hard to find cafes that were equally focused on both. As a coeliac, I had a deep understanding of all the challenges people like me were faced with when visiting new cafes. There were so many times that I paid extra for a smaller and... lesser quality dish, plain GF friand, or ended up feeling unwell due to a cafés poor handling or understanding of GF principles. We felt we could do much better! We decided long ago that we would offer next level quality gluten free options with generous sized servings and we would never charge extra for gluten free, ever. We’re not 100% gluten free with our food menu (although we are with the amazing treats that Rejoice bakes). But we knew from experience that if the venue can’t cater properly for dietary needs, then it can potentially ruin the whole experience for everyone. Conversely, when everyone in a group enjoys there experience, there's a really good chance they'll come back again. So one of our core philosophies from Day 1 was that we would really cater for coeliacs (a constantly growing community) as well as other food intolerances and dietary preferences, and we would make the process simple and unobtrusive. That way we can just allow our guests to relax and enjoy their experience. After 6 years of loving our Norman Park family, we’re preparing to open our second location in Highgate Hill in mid-November! We’ll be able to offer more seating, a bigger menu, gluten free high tea and so much more! Stay tuned for launch details coming soon

11.01.2022 You know it’s going to be a great day when the first food order is the #adobobowl . Our #glutenfree chicken and pork adobo bowl is now considered as one of our popular dishes and has become a main stay on our menu. Adobo is tagged as the national dish of the Philippines. Every household will have their own version often handed down as a family recipe. Our adobo bowl is served with Laing (kale coconut curry), asian mixed mushrooms and devilled egg on a bed of garlic fried rice

09.01.2022 Rejoice, Growing up in the Philippines, my family loved to both cook and eat out. My Dad was a great cook and, whenever I cook now, I always think of him, our home and the dishes I enjoyed in my childhood But I only learned how to cook and bake when I came to Australia in 2007. When I married Adam, I had to learn how to cook as he is coeliac and I wanted him to experience the food I enjoy eating, especially my favourite Filipino dishes. One winter night I decided to... make him a gluten free apple pie. When I served it to him for the first time, his eyes started to well up because he never thought he would be able to enjoy apple pie again From that day on I vowed that I would learn how to make more gluten free food and desserts! I was self-taught and finally in 2015, one year after we opened Dovetail on Overend, I went to Patisserie school to become a qualified pastry chef. Since then, we’ve gradually added more Filipino influences to our food and dessert menus, and I get a special kick out of seeing our customers really enjoy something completely new to them that I’m able to prepare gluten free! MUCH more of that to come at Dovetail Social in Highgate Hill #dovetailonoverend #dovetailsocial

07.01.2022 Dovetail means to join (two pieces of wood) with dovetail joints. To connect or combine precisely or harmoniously In 2014 we opened our first cafe, Dovetail on Overend in Norman Park. The name "Dovetail" really connected with us as we imagined people connecting in our beautiful suburban space, while enjoying delicious food and beverages. It's been so rewarding over the last 6 years to really become part of our local community, and we're so thankful. We're all about ...being inclusive and our food menu has been designed so that everyone who visits us can enjoy their experience regardless of food allergies/intolerances or dietary preferences. And there's no extra charge for Gluten Free, ever! Now in 2020, we are excited to share the Dovetail love and connect with the wonderful community in Highgate Hill in Brisbane!
