Gluten Free Restaurants in London (2025) | How To Coeliac
top of page

London Restaurant Guide

London is a dream for Coeliacs. No matter where you are staying, you are not far from an entirely gluten free restaurant.  That might be a pleasant shock if you are from a a less gluten friendly country. The existence of 100% gluten free restaurants means that you are likely to find types of food that you thought you were never going to eat again or at least never going to find in the supermarket. Doughnuts, onion rings, fried chicken, waffles, tortellini, fish 'n' chips are just some of my favourite finds in London - check out below for some restaurant suggestions

​

Jump To:

Please note: I only share restaurants that I have found to be safe for those with Coeliac Disease. This means I go and ask questions about the prep area, how things are cooked, whether there is a separate fryer etc. 
However, as processes and staff may change, please make sure to ask questions and decide for yourself whether it is suitable. 


If you find that a restaurant I have added to the blogpost is no longer safe for coeliacs, please contact me and I will investigate & remove if necessary.

Ukiyo Handroll Bar

An intimate Japanese sushi restaurant that specialises in hand-rolled sushi. It's a new restaurant in Covent Garden that is 90% gluten free - owing to their use of gluten free soy sauce as standard! 
I love sushi & sashimi, and this was really a very tasty experience.
