UK Restaurant & Café chains offering gluten free V1.0c Feb 2016 The UK has a lot of ‘chain’ restaurants and cafes – you will find them all around central London and also in all the major towns in the UK. As many of them are now offering gluten free options, this list is a useful start for finding gluten free options while travelling. Those restaurants with an *(asterisk), have worked with Coeliac UK catering department to obtain Coeliac UK accreditation1, therefore staff have been trained in issues such as cross contamination. You may see NCGI on some menus – this means ‘no gluten containing ingredients’. Many of the restaurants have also been reviewed, and this is noted in the ‘how identified’ column. If you want to go straight to all UK restaurant reviews, see: http://thecoeliacplate.com/category/gfukresreview/ Most restaurants have a disclaimer that they cannot guarantee 100% GF due to the cross contamination risks. If you are aware of a restaurant missing from the list, please contact me via the form on the website: www.thecoeliacplate.com For specific city listings of gluten free restaurants (including central London), please see: http://thecoeliacplate.com/restaurant-lists/ Please see the disclaimer at the end of the document.
