Lindiwe’s United Kingdom Local Guide

Hi! I’m Lindiwe from @behindtheallergy. While I recently moved to Ireland, I lived in London for the past 10 years! I’m allergic to peanuts, nuts, sesame, lentils, chickpeas, peas, beans, shellfish, kiwi, pineapple, and horses and have found many safe places to eat and drink, which I’ve shared on the Spokin app and are featured in this guide. I’m so excited to share my favourite safe spots! If I had to pick just one favourite, it would be Côte Brasserie not only for amazing French food, but also their allergen awareness, educated staff and incredible allergy menu, which details every ingredient of the dish. UK is famous for so many cuisines—curry, fish & chips, high tea, pie and mash—but because I am English and I have had them so many times, I rarely seek out those dishes. But what I think makes the UK & London famous is our pubs, and my favourite pubs & bars are Churchill Arms, The Wigmore, and Crate Brewery, all in London, Hall & Woodhouse Bath, and Sky Bar Birmingham! If you’re visiting or living in London, there’s so much to do and see! My top recommendations include: Côte Brasserie for great service, Hawksmoor restaurant for a fancy night out, Chipotle for food to go, The Churchill Arms for a cosy pub experience, Portobello Road to say you went (but its very busy and expensive) and Brick Lane for the vibes.
