Matt’s Gluten-Free London Top Picks

Hi! I’m Matt from @glutenfreestreetgang and have been living gluten free in London for the past 6 years. I’ve shared some of my absolute favorite local London finds on the Spokin app, which are featured in this guide. If I could only pick one essential London spot, it would be Manna Dew to get a croissant, cheese twist, and one of everything they bake. London is famous for fish & chips and afternoon tea: Wicked Fish and the Charlie & The Chocolate Factory afternoon tea are my top spots to find them! While eating is a big highlight in London, there’s more to do here than just eat. My favorite activities outside of eating are: 1. Going to a market where local London and visitor London intersect. Borough Market is a classic, but Broadway Market is great to get off the beaten tourist path. 2. See the incredible parks London has to offer. Richmond Park, Victoria Park, or a stroll along the Regent’s Canal towpath are my go-to parks 3. Grab a cocktail at a vibey cocktail bar. Coupette and Equal Parts are my current top picks. 4. It’s cliche, but the museums in London never get old. The V&A and the British Museum have incredible permanent exhibits and an ever-changing list of special temporary ones. 5. As a transportation nerd, I can’t get enough of the London Transport Museum’s events. Their train depot is worth a trip and they even offer tours of abandoned tube stations!
