100% Gluten Free London Street Food

London has a vibrant food market and street food scene, which can be the perfect place to grab a bite to eat. This guide focuses on London’s gluten free street food options and I hadn’t realised how many there were until I started compling my list! There are dozens of fully gluten free market traders to be discovered, all utterly delicious and some also catering for other dietary requirements (dairy free, vegan, etc).

Below you find a round up of London’s best fully gluten free street food vendours, followed by a couple of my other favourites that can cater for coeliacs (but are not fully gluten free). I have noted where the vendours tend to be, but please do double check on their respective social media channels and websites if you are determined to try one particular vendour on the list. It is hard to keep track of their exact movements due to the dynamic nature of London’s incredible street food scene.

I also have dedicated gluten free guides to some of the London food markets – Broadway Market, Borough Market, Camden Market and Mercato Metropolitano.

Feel free to get in touch if you have any suggested additions to my gluten free London street food guide. You can contact me on my Instagram account or via email at mygfguide@gmail.com.

Other Gluten Free Friendly Market Favourites

Kally Cooks

WHAT: Fabulous Indian food from Kally Cooks. They have lots of gluten free options and the food we tried really was fantastic. When we visited it was fully gluten free, but check before you order as the menu does vary.

WHERE: Broadway Market (sometimes), Saturdays.

Ruby’s

WHAT: Incredible gluten and dairy free dougnuts, cakes and doughnut-topped cupcakes. They also have some vegan choices. Half of the stall is fully gluten free and served by a dedicated gluten free trader, but beware the other half of the stall which sells vegan cake (not gluten free). Just check with them when you are buying. There are no cross contamination worries due to how separately they store everything.

WHERE: Greenwich Market, Saturdays and Sundays
