Your Olympic London gluten free cheat sheet: Part 3 - Fish and Chips

What could be more quintessentially British than Fish and Chips?

Well folks, get ready for some fried food because several London restaurants are offering gluten free batter and dedicated friers on certain days of the week.

And do try the mushy peas.

Oliver's Fish and Chips



Oliver's is a great fish and chip shop, serving classic food but in modern environment with class. I love this place. 

They do gluten free fish and chips every Wednesday - so be sure to put it in your diary. 

This place is really worth it making a special trip out to. (Plus Belsize Park is a pretty area!)




Here are three more that I haven't tried, but have been recommended by my most excellent readers: 

Olley's Fish Experience - Herne Hill - Gluten free Tuesdays: http://www.olleys.info/

Mam's Fish and Chips - South End Green Hampstead - Gluten Free Tuesdays http://www.tipped.co.uk/listings/7719/mam-s-fish-restaurant

Belmont Bay Fish and Chips - Harrow - Gluten Free Wednesdayshttp://www.urbanspoon.com/u/map/1507931/restaurant/London/Belmont-Bay-Harrow

  4. Thanks a ton for sharing. It makes travelling a bit easier.
    Now I'm off to go find these fish and chips!
    Also, yesterday I visited a Leon's, where I had grilled salmon and baked chips. It's not exactly the same experience, but it's better than my first trip to London in 2009 where I ate salad everyday!

  6. I was at "grill on the square" and they have GF fish and chips. They also make the chips is separate fritter, so you can have steak with it. The waiter was very well informed and really nice.

  8. Hi Dravid,

    Yes the grill on the square does still have gluten free fish and chips - HOWEVER - they are running a gluten free menu that is NOT correct - they have many items marked as gluten free which are NOT! Therefore I don't recommend it unless you only stick to the fish and chips until they have this problem resolved.
