Peanut-Free Greece and Italy Top Picks

Hi! I’m Fiyin, and I recently traveled to Greece and Italy with my family for vacation. We visited Athens, Santorini, Rome, and Florence, and I found many safe places to eat while managing a peanut allergy. One of my favorite places to eat was Osteria da Fortunata in Rome, Italy, where I got the fettuccine with meat sauce. The food was delicious, the service was amazing, and we found it very accommodating for food allergies. If you’re looking for a sweet treat, I would also highly recommend Solo Gelato in Oia, Santorini, Greece! Follow me on the Spokin app @fiyinogun to see my 28 reviews!

“A pretty popular gelato spot in Athens! The flavors were very fresh, and each one had a little card with all the ingredients listed, which was very helpful.”

Grand Hyatt Athens

Location: Athens, Greece

“Located a little bit away from the main square with beautiful rooftop views of the city & Acropolis! The breakfast at this hotel was one of the best we had on the trip. It was buffet style, so there were plenty of food options to choose from! However, I do wish they had more signage and ingredient lists to help accommodate food allergies. I typically played it safe and just grabbed foods I was familiar with.”
