Intro

Gluten free chains, restaurants, cafes and pubs, to consider visiting around the UK! This article covers the Best Chain Pubs, Restaurants and Cafes for Gluten-Free Dining in the UK. This article addresses which chains, operating in the UK, offer gluten-free options. The post sometimes includes chain restaurants that provide gluten-free food and drinks plus are dog-friendly. It includes a range of regional locations.

Just as a disclaimer:

All of the establishments listed here advertise gluten free options to the best of my knowledge. This may be subject to changes. Most of these places on this list have mixed kitchens that also handle gluten. I have starred all the places, where I have personally visited.

*= I have visited.

Even if something is listed as gluten free on a menu, I always let my server know that I am coeliac and require my meal to be gluten free, which I would always recommend as it has definitely saved me from being glutened in the past.

I have not been paid, gifted or given anything to write about these establishments. These are my own opinions, I have paid for everything that I have tried at these places and this is not an advertisement.

This list contains chains of various sizes from regional to national, sometimes even international, level. For the biggest chains, I have at times only covered a selection of their regional locations. This is for the sake for time and space on the list. It goes without saying that restaurants can open and shut at any time.

* The Lounges – gluten free options and dog friendly

I visited the Manzano Lounge (the Hadleigh franchise of this chain). The food was good and I particularly liked how they had a variety of gluten-free options on the menu. Their gluten-free BBQ sauce was a special treat. While they let my dog inside, they were very strict about my dog not touching the furniture, so it didn’t feel like the most dog friendly option. In terms of gluten-free dining, it is a good chain.
