Eating out when you are first diagnosed can be daunting. With a little preparation however you can enjoy a delicious gluten free meal.

We suggest:

if possible ring the chef or cook in advance to discuss your dietary needs
ask about items on the menu that may already be gluten free or can easily be adapted to be gluten free
be aware of potential sources of less obvious gluten such as stocks, sauces, fried food or icing sugar and ask appropriate questions
inform staff on basic cross contamination issues
use your free dining card to assist you in communicating your needs
if the eating establishment would like further information please use the Catering for Coeliac Disease fact sheet (downloadable PDF below).

Above all be a good gluten free ambassador by being patient and good humoured. By educating others the gluten free dining experience will be improved for all. If you have a positive dining experience please let us know.
