Topolys Italian in Gloucester

We had a lovely meal here recently. The food is well prepared with good flavours, the only slight negative is that despite almost all tables being empty they insisted on putting people next to each other so you could hear each others conversations.

Went here just my husband and I, we both had an amazing meal my husband said was best steak he ever had. All waitresses were attentive and friendly and were on the ball. Can't wait to go back and will definitely return soon in near future.

Ate at Topoly’s for the last 2 evenings whilst working away and this place is an absolute gem. Ordered different on both nights and absolutely loved everything I was served. Atmosphere was great and the staff were amazing. The best spaghetti bolognese I have ever eaten and I’ve travelled all over the country.

Even tho our waitress was lovely and polite. I had to return my first cocktail as it tasted like soda water and not drinkable. Our starters came out and they were beautiful mushrooms were super greasy because but full of flavour. Mains were awful sons burger was burnt black and he managed to eat half of it. Mine and my daughters dish penne abbarita I think it was called we did not eat it tasted no better than a pasta stir in from Tesco. Puddings were okay. What was annoying was a manager I’m guessing came up our table and apologise they took my sons burger off the bill which in fairness he ate quite a lot it and we were made to pay for the 2 main meals we didn’t eat. This is a restaurant I’ve been excited to try for a long time however we won’t be returning had the 2 meals been taken off I would have given them a second chance but this put me off.

I went pre concert for a meal. Great service and lovely food. Well worth a visit.

First time at Tapoly's and the food was excellent. I had vegetable risotto and dessert of the week (rhubarb frangipane with pistachio ice cream).

Absolutely fantastic, this home comfort family run business superb, we have been coming here for over 30yrs and never once had a bad meal. Staff are very accommodating and welcoming. Highly recommend coming here for any occasion you will never be disappointed on the quality of the food on offer and the variety of choice available.

I heard good reviews about Topolys, so I decided to give it a try, and honestly, it was even better than I expected! I had such a great experience. Everything was just perfect. The food was absolutely unbelievable, so fresh, full of flavor, and cooked to perfection. I had the risotto and it was really good, creamy, rich, and packed with flavor. The staff was super nice and welcoming, making us feel comfortable right away. The service was also really impressive, fast but not rushed, and everything came out just right. I also loved that they have gluten-free options, which is a big plus! Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better meal. Amazing food, great service, and a really nice atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Lovely lunch for valentines . A delicious starter , wholesome main and naughty pudding. One of our favourite restaurants Park at quays or a multi-storey just off Southgate’s street. Easy to find .. the best restaurant in gloucester. A must! Thanks Topolys…

Recently went to Topolys with my wife who is gluten free a big reason for us to go as they have great gluten free choices!! For starters we shared Caprese salad, Garlic prawns with chilli and garlic and Olives both so tasty and a good combination, we just asked if the sourdough roll that comes with the prawns can come separate for myself to eat and it wasn't a problem at all. For our mains I had the Beef Stroganoff with chips which I cant get enough of, always my go to. My wife had Pollo Dolcelatte with Jacket potato- SO GOOD! (her words) I believe that this dish is already gluten free which is just so easy, I'm 90% sure that one side of the menu is GF and not filled with your generic pastas and if you're wanting something a little different then you'll be very happy. This isn't our first time to Topolys and wont be the last, it gets better every time we go! To finish off I had the chocolate Brownie which was topped with Golden caramel served with ice cream and my wife had GF Cannoli with a Cortado (she was too full for a proper dessert) but they had a great selection. Overall I couldn't recommend this place enough whether you're GF or just love good, homemade and hearty food. There is something for everyone at Topolys! Thanks guys we can't wait to come again!!

Everything about Topolys was perfect! The food was unbelievable, full of authentic flavors and cooked to perfection. The staff was incredibly nice, making us feel welcome from the start. Service was quick and top notch. If you're looking for great Italian food with excellent service, this is the place to go! 😍

Best Italian restaurant in Gloucester!

They need to get a shutter on the door as people ( delivery people) can leave it open and get very cold very quickly. But overall, lovely, food and staff

We ate there with our children. The food was very good and the desserts (cheesecake and brownie) were delicious. The waitresses were very attentive and friendly. We finally had a real coffee! We would definitely return

I had a lovely three-course meal at this hidden gem! As someone born and raised in this city, I was surprised I’d never heard of this place before. I love supporting local restaurants over big chains, so choosing this spot for Italian food was an easy decision. I visited with a couple of friends around 5 pm after work, and we had the restaurant to ourselves, which was a nice touch. For starters, I had the salad Caprese, followed by ravioli for the main course, and profiteroles for dessert. Everything was delicious, and I’d happily visit again and recommend it to others!

Visited as a xmas treat to ourselves. The food was very good and presented well. The place has a very nice feel and enjoyed our evening. I had a pasta dish with salmon which was delicious. Only slight moan would be that I asked for some chilli in it. Tbf the waitress did say there might be a charge which was OK. When eating my meal I got a kick of chilli then nothing. I could see a sprinkle of dried chilli had been sprinkled on top that fot £1.50 I thought was a bit cheeky as most Italians I have been in have it in a grinder. Not about the money as spent £72 pounds but the principle. That aside would recommend this place for a lovely meal

Excellent service from the staff. The food was very nice. The atmosphere was cosy. Went with a large group from work. Will definitely return

Amazing tasting Italian best in Gloucester

Visited with work colleagues. We’d pre-ordered from the set menu and paid the £10 deposit. A couple of people couldn’t make it in the end, so they accepted that they would lose their deposit, however we also had to pay for the meals they’d ordered, so felt if they were going to that, we should have all just paid the whole amount up front! However, none of that mattered as much as the food itself. The starter was ok-ish, very dry ciabatta toast and smooth pate with a tiny bit of a very sweet chutney and limp rocket. The main course was a tortellini pasta - I think it was something with mushrooms in, but hard to tell. It was the tomato sauce over it that was the issue though. I think it had been there earlier in the day, but by the time it was served it was an evaporated mush. Won’t be returning.

Lovely small restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. The food was excellent and plentiful. Good value. The service was very attentive, almost too much with different servers asking the same questions in quick succession but not too intrusive.

Food tasted incredible, we ordered for the first time last night and will definitely be going back

Missing items! Provide a photo just eat say, of the missing items?

I’m disappointed with the restaurant because half of my order was missing… but the delivery driver was lovely

Absolutely stunning meal - all 3 courses. Topolys special dessert was magnificient. Thanks.....

Lovely midweek meal, great food and service. Would thoroughly recommend.

A lovely experience. Decent food, delicious and well-presented, friendly service and a nice relaxed atmosphere. We'll definitely come more often, to what is one of the few traditional independent restaurants left in the city centre.

love it here ! great feel to the restaurant and lovely food

10 for dinner booked well in advance . Found ourselves tucked into a cramped table upstairs. Servers were exceptional polite courteous and in fairness the starters came quick they were all cold dishes so they may have been prepared earlier ? . Mine a seafood salad at about 8 quid was sloppy salad and not much seafood cheapest prawns lack of mixture of other seafood, tasteless and disappointing. Main was king Prawn in a tomato sauce and salad . Insalata di mare starter Gamberetti re del mar great names poor execution. Didn't stay for dessert went home for Birthday cake . Reasonable prices perhaps a bit dearer and better produce . Will take a lot for me to return voluntarily but will go back as usual within a year or so . Thanks for 10k plus views last month and keeping us in the top 20% we really appreciate it

Wow! FRIENDLY and HELPFUL staff who go above and beyond . Clearly enjoy their work. The food was presented BEAUTIFULLY and tasted DELICIOUS! I would recommend this venue to everyone . Excellent value for money, out doing anywhere at the quays with such a welcoming atmosphere you feel like you’re really having a lovely dining experience! Support local and independent! You won’t be disappointed

Lovely restaurant, the food was lovely and the staff were great. They made sure we were seen too very quickly, food came out very quickly and was of very high standards. Will be returning again soon.

We come here as often as we are able. Our favourite restaurant and a go to for our anniversary, which it is tonight. Food is amazing. Authentic and tasty. Lovely atmosphere too. In addition to the fab food, the wine menu u is awesome.

A great Italian restaurant. Ambience was great food even better and the staff friendly and attentive without over doing it. A must for good food lovers

Great restaurant, lovely food at readonable price, brilliant service. Will definitely be back.

Amazing as always, great staff and fantastic food.

Amazing italian place with 10 star food

Easy to find restaurant. First course I had mussels and they were the big ones and were a it tough. The main course I had was salmon salad. It came a flakes nit a fillet and was overcooked. The Tiramisu was the vest I ever had! A mixed bag.

Lovely food. Great delivery time. Polite delivery Drive. Will definitely order again. 😊

Always delicious freshly prepared food, and the staff are lovely. A cozy yet sophisticated aesthetic. We keep coming back here for family get-togethers and date nights too!

Excellent evening, great food, friendly staff and excellent value for money

Incredible restaurant with amazing food. We sat upstairs & it was beautiful, staff were very attentive & checked on us every 10 or so minutes so we were never waiting to order anything that we needed. I didn’t get a photo of my steak but it was cooked perfectly & my boyfriend’s burger was amazing. The wait time for food was very little, we barely had to wait even on a Saturday evening. My favourite place in the world🫶🏻

Never had a bad meal or service at Topolys. We went there tonight, whitebait, Stroganoff everything was delicious. The service was really good, we will come back. Thank you 😊

Excellent food as always, delivered piping hot! Generous, freshly cooked portions.

Never had a bad experience at Topolys... Food is amazing, such a good variety to choose from! The staff are so friendly and polite.. what more do you want from an evening meal out?!

Lovely food with lots of flavour. Great ambience and very friendly staff. Update: went again recently for table of 15. The staff were attentive, food was excellent, correct and really tasty, atmosphere was superb. Would highly recommend, thank you to team Topolys!

Absolutely love coming to topolys, hands down my favourite Italian. I am a bit stubborn in my food choices but you can’t go wrong with the carbonara. Lovely food, great staff and a really good atmosphere!

Amazing food, amazing cocktails and amazing service as always.

food was amazing, nice and hot as well, delivered guy was polite

I give 1 on trust. We wanted to eat something vaguely Italian but when I approached the menu I ran away. There is no right ingredient in carbonara. Not even one. But how do you propose a milestone of Roman cuisine with ham instead of bacon, cream instead of cremina made with egg and pecorino? What does parsley have to do with it? White wine? Mixed herbs? Help .

Wonderful food reasonable prices nice atmosphere

Busy night food was good, starter of mussels could have had a few more, only 4 given. Rest of starters good. Mains good. Had brownie and ice-cream brownie could have been warmed up. Staff could have been more attentive other than that a nice night out.

Beautiful fish and pasta dishes lovely desserts.

They accommodated us last minute in this popular restaurant, and we had a fantastic evening. The menu catered for tastes across three generations. The whitebait starter; the ravioli with artichokes as well as the risotto with prawns; and the white choc profiteroles were especially delicious. The service was lovely too. We’ll be back.

Had a lovely meal here with my husband. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. Highly recommended and we hope to return soon.

Best Italian ever- range of delicious food, never been disappointed. Only trouble is choosing what to have from a vast array of choices.

Pricey but a wonderful Italian restaurant in the heart of Gloucester. Came here for a work retirement party and the food was fantastic and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Unfortunately the restaurant itself is a bit cramped. Would be great if Topolys could branch out and find a larger location!

Great food as always, my favourite place in Gloucester! However this time round they forgot my garlic bread with cheese and I’m a little devastated! Even still id highly recommend topolys, I’d write more but I’m still crying over my lack of garlic bread 😭😂

The food was delicious. Not a single wrong. Everything cooked to perfection. Staff were lovely. Can’t wait to visit again.

Portion of food small comparing the price paid

Staying in Gloucester for one night and picked Topolys on basis of reviews one on arrival found it to be popular with locals! Plain exterior but good warm atmosphere inside. Excellent food in good sized portions from friendly waitresses. Just one of those it all felt good evenings!

We had a party for 16 family and friends. We were made so welcome. We had pre-ordered so we were served quickly with really excellent food, hot, tasty and well presented. We were not rushed and were able to enjoy a very relaxed evening. Every one enjoyed themselves and it was not expensive.

What a gem of a place. The food is excellent, really top quality and the service is so professional and friendly. Importantly you are attended to in such a nice way, not rushed and the staff really know their produce. If you live in Gloucester or visiting like me, this is definitely worth a visit.

Best discovery in Gloucester for me. Everything was perfect

A gem of a restaurant where the food is out of this World and the service is impeccible - some adjustments to disabled access would take this to 5 stars immediately

Visiting Cheltenham for the weekend and popped in Gloucester. Friend and I had the most fantastic meal last Saturday, mouth watering tast, good quality and the staff very welcoming and friendly. Thank you everyone 👍.

Fantastic food and service. Mussels starter are sublime as was the calamari… I had 2 starters it was that good. Very well run and friendly place staff are great we had a lovely evening again, we have been twice.

The food was on time and piping hot, was tasty too

It’s been a long time since we visited Topoly’s and that was a mistake, great food and service, very reasonably priced and good portions, good news all round, we will be back again much sooner 👍

Food wasn’t prepared until after delivery time originally 7.30-7.45, delivery was extended to 8.05, but arrived at 9.10, meaning restaurant were to blame. Delivery was 15 minutes as expected once tracking showed ready. Won’t buy from this restaurant again.

the best Italian restaurant in Gloucester 👏 number 1

Really really good, fresh food. Everything with personal touch and attention to details. We were genuinely surprised and enjoyed very much every bit of evening.

If I could give more stars, I would give more. The food is delicious, the service is excellent. Keep it up. If I'm back, it means it's good.

Food is to die for here - takeaway or dining in. All the staff are lovely. My favourite restaurant in Gloucester!

Delivery delayed twice, quantity about half that of a standard Chinese or Indian meal, too much salt. Certainly not worth £50 to feed three people. A considerable drop in both quantity and quality since we last ordered from this restaurant.

My favourite restaurant in Gloucester, food is amazing, staff are lovely - nothings too small to ask!

Lovely restaurant with fantastic food! Highly recommend 👍👍👍

Used to eat here many years ago when I was young, amazing to come back to great wholesome Italian food with my now grown up kids. Thanks for an awesome lunch.

Would highly recommend if you are visiting the area and wish to dine in a chain free independent restaurant. Food was excellent as well as the service.

We had not been here before but my family had and recommended it. We visited on a quiet Monday evening and even so the atmosphere was warm and friendly and the staff attentive. We all had different dishes and the food was plentiful, well cooked and nicely presented. Only negative is that there was no beer/ale available - just lager, wine or spirits - the addition of a bottled beer would be a good idea!

Excellent food, went for mum's 80th surprise birthday meal. 🙂

Amazing food and a nice atmosphere that’s reasonably priced.

Awful experience, food was appalling burger was burnt and dry. There was a hair in brownie absolutely revolting. Staff were really patronising and flippant throughout the experience and especially at the end. Would not recommend!

Great quality food and wine. Very helpful and accommodating waitress too. I was very impressed at the courtesy and discussion we enjoyed. This is a family owned business and the evidently take pride in their trade. I will definitely make this a regular visit.

Friendly, efficient service. Delicious authentic Italian cuisine, well cooked and presented. Everyone should support these independents - so much better than large chains that have taken over our highstreets.

Absolutely delicious food. 3 of us ate and had starters and mains. All dishes were so tasty and we can't wait to come back! Thank you :)

Very please have love Italian meal here food was all homemade very good service will be back again

Lovely restaurant food always good and waiting staff Lovely

Lovely authentic Italian cuisine

A good menu. It's all very tasty. Great service. It's definitely worth a visit.

We arrived late and cold and they rustled up a really nice stroganoff & risotto. Friendly efficient service, solid italian food. What more could you ask for? Good value too.

Fantastic food, service, and experience would definitely go again!

Staff attentive. They were happy to leave us while we waited for the rest of our party

We love everything about this restaurant!!

The food was perfect! Big portion and food was delicious. Food came hot and the delivery was good.

After spending all day exploring the cathedral, we wanted to sit down for a tasty dinner. My husband loved his pasta with seafood and I devoured my cannelloni. There was a large family party and the restaurant managed to keep everyone happy and provided outstanding and friendly service. Strongly recommend this nice restaurant!

Food and service were very good. Prices are good given the quality of the food. Would certainly go back.

Excellent address! The food took was delicious. We had 2 different chicken dishes and both were excellent. The same goes for the vegetables. Although we had to wait a little, it was definitely worth it. I strongly recommend

This was the first time eating at Topolys Italian, and it will not be the last! The food and service were amazing!

Food is always fantastic! The Biscoff cheesecake is amazing

Fabulous restaurant I organised a group booking for 21 persons. Staff were both friendly and efficient. We had a very good evening, tasty food and such a choice on the menu. Would certainly recommend.

Food was very late it’s early to blame delivery but on top of that the food was disappointing as it was are first time we will never get it again
