Often I have families with special dietary requirements and so I have decided to include popular dietary requirements in my blogs. Gluten-free comes a lot and so here is a list of my favourite gluten-free friendly places to eat in London. Bon-appetite!
Niche: This independent casual dining restaurant serves seasonally-inspired crowd pleasers with a modern twist. Based in Islington, London. Niche is a 100% gluten, nut and sesame-free menu where everything is prepared and cooked on site, making use of local suppliers and seasonal ingredients. Open every day with its own take on British and European classics, tempting desserts and loads of dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan dishes!
Los Mochis: The ultimate Pan-Pacific pairing of Mexican & Japanese cuisine, Los Mochis blends the vibrancy, passion and heat of Mexico while celebrating the cool elegance and precision of Japan. The menu is entirely gluten, nut, and celery-free, designed for sharing in vibrant, design-led spaces adorned with Mexican art.
Copains: Croissants, babkas, breads and seasonal pastries form the backbone of the acclaimed gluten-free bakery. Copains translates to “friends” in French, and that sense of warmth underpins the customer experience. The pastries are displayed on tiled and wooden slabs, and staff are on hand to guide customers through the experience from start to finish. “The idea is not simply to sell, but to support and inform each visitor,” when navigating gluten-free, vegan and lactose-free options.
Wicked Fish: Seafood, burgers & dogz with a bite! The guys behind Wicked Fish thought it was time to open a fish and chip shop with a twist… Made with fresh, ethically sourced ingredients from top quality suppliers. Crispy fresh gluten-free batter, home made tartar sauce and fresh live Scottish lobster. Scrummy!
Cream Dream: Led by a Ukrainian team, Cream Dream blend Eastern European warmth with modern flair, crafting everything from scratch with respect for your body and the planet.
From elegant pastries to comforting savoury dishes, our mission is to give inspiration and take care of our guests - with bold flavours, kind values, and a sense that everyone's welcome. Although not entirely gluten-free, there are lots of gluten-free options.
Tacos Padre: The menu is shaped by travels across Mexico, drawing from the country’s diverse street food culture - from bustling markets to hidden taquerias. Every dish reflects the bold flavours and regional traditions of Mexican cooking. Every salsa and marinade is made from scratch. Whether slow-braised or fire-grilled, we respect our ingredients, minimise waste, and make every bite count. 100% gluten-free!
Borough 22: In 2014, Borough 22 set out to create a doughnut that was safe, delicious, and allergy-friendly. That same mission drives everything at Borough 22 with their signature doughnuts made with the same care and love as the original recipe, ensuring they're not only safe and inclusive but also indulgent and full of flavour!
The After School Cookie Club: A fully plant-based and gluten-free bakery experience, including cookies, cookie dough, and ice cream. The After School Cookie Club is a vegan bakery located in Borough Yards, London, known for its gluten-free and dairy-free menu. All cookies, cookie dough, and ice cream are made in a kitchen that handles gluten, so while the products are gluten-free, they cannot guarantee complete absence of cross-contamination. People with celiac disease or severe gluten allergies should contact the bakery directly for safety precautions.
Plants of Roselyn: Traditional Thai cuisine that offers plant-based dishes that are typically enjoyed daily at home. Dishes include hummingbird tofu curry, aubergine gra pow, shiritaki pad si ew, and a selection of desserts. The gluten free Raspberry Lemongrass Cheesecake is to die for! Although not totally gluten-free, there are a lot of gluten-free options.
Libby’s: This is an award-winning 100% gluten-free bakery. They bake delicious cakes, breads and treats that you can enjoy with complete peace of mind. You can order nationwide from the online shop for home delivery, or visit the totally gluten-free café in Notting Hill. If you are coeliac or gluten intolerant you have come to the right place!
