Gluten Free Borough Market

Food Stalls with Gluten Free Options

Free From Bakehouse

A fully gluten free cake stall, which is a must visit for coeliacs and gluten free visitors to Borough Market. Free From Bakehouse bake some AMAZING treats and incredible cakes. You can buy sweet and savoury treats to eat then and there or buy some of the prepackaged cake packs to take away. Various dairy free and vegan options available, with all products being clearly marked.

Khanom Krok

A fully gluten free Thai food stall dishing up various types of pad thai and coconut pancakes. The pad thai is especially good and well worth queuing for.

Horn OK Please

Fully gluten free and vegetarian Indian food, comprising dosas and delicious sides. This stall also offers some vegan and dairy free options.

Tibs

Fully gluten free Ethiopian food that smells amaaazing. There is always a huge queue for Tibs as they serve up portions of their tasty stews and other dishes.

Gujarati Rasoi

Another Indian stall with a number of gluten free options. They do have a gluten-containing option (normally the samosas) but mark gluten free clearly on their menu. Speak to them when you order so that they can minimise any potential cross contamination risk.

Cool Chile Co

This stall sells packs of BRILLIANT gluten free soft tacos to take home. Honestly they are some of the best I have ever tried and they freeze well too, so stock up if you spot this stall.

Coeliac Friendly Restaurants

Arabica

Middle Eastern cuisine and small plates are the menu here. I ate here a while ago and staff were wonderful. They marked up the gluten free choices on the menu for me (there were lots) and we had a really yummy meal.

Hawkmoor

My favourite steak restaurants in London, Hawksmoor restaurants also offer a great Sunday roast that can be made gluten free (book ahead as it is popular). Generally they have an excellent gluten free menu, showing clearly which dishes are gluten free and which can be adapted. I have eaten here perhaps a dozen times and have always had a perfect experience. Be sure to try the salted caramel rolos for dessert!

Tacos El Pastor

Long on my want-to-visit list, Tacos El Pastor has a big reputation in London and their menu is largely naturally gluten free.
