Gluten Free London
Our honeymoon to London was my first international travel since being diagnosed with Celiac Disease and I could not have asked for a better experience. London is a celiac’s dream with many of the restaurants having gluten free options, but more surprisingly the number of 100% dedicated gluten free restaurants. We were there for nine days and obviously couldn’t eat at every restaurant I came across in my searches but we did hit quite a few of them. In the list below, restaurants marked with an asterisk (*) are 100% Gluten Free certified by Coeliac UK, the celiac association of the UK. Several restaurants have multiple locations; I have included the address of the location we visited. I am happy to report that during our whole time in London, I did not get sick from cross contamination once. We are already looking forward to our next visit to London.
