Elephant & Castle

Ordered the butter chicken online.. not the best food. I didn’t have any issues with it but other stuff on the menu was incorrectly labeled gluten free.

I told my server that I had a gluten allergy and confirmed that the grilled chicken wasn’t coated in anything and also ordered the side salad because the fries are in a shared fryer. Plate came out with fries all over the place. I let the expo know that I couldn’t eat them and ordered the salad - he came back less than two minutes later with the same plate just with a salad. And said he let the chef know to be more careful with gluten free. Being wary of cross contact, I ended up packing up my food and giving it to someone on the street. The wait staff and kitchen were really busy and backed up, but I’ll stick to just drinks here next time.

Terrible. My daughter and I ordered a sandwich and burger on a GF bun. They were out of gf bread. We decided to share nachos. They were out of those. I then got a salad and asked for no cheese. It came with cheese. We will not be back

Not Celiac friendly!!!! Cross-contamination a big issue!

I got extremely sick after eating here. Ruined part of my trip.

Celiac friendly?

No

They did have a gf menu - but basically they listed things on there that are fried in a shared fryer :( omission beer.

Food was Great! Sean our waiter was amazing! I had fish and chips. The fish was cornmeal based. it was fabulous! I highly recommend this place.

Has Glutenberg on the menu

They don't have a gluten free menu just a gluten sensitive menu and clearly state risk of cross contamination. I ordered a burger with the GF bread which was delicious but somehow I still ended up sick the next day. Cross contamination is high here.

Gluten free menu, a lot of the menu items are fried in a fryer that is cross contaminated. Only place in DC to get a burger on a bun!

GF Beer - Omission Lager and IPAGluten Sensitive Menu - disclaimer that there is no separate kitchen for food prep, so cannot guarantee 100%.Lots of menu options

Excellent food and a gluten free menu.

Dont get the butter chicken. It tastes more like tomato soup than any curry ive ever had. Not worth the price.

Seemed safe though. The atmosphere was good and they had a bar. The cesar or the bugers might be better bang for your buck.

Asked server for a gluten free menu and they had a separate printed menu with all available gluten free options. The menu stated clearly what was gluten free, what items could be made gluten free and how to order them, and which items were fried in a shared frier.

I ordered the salmon without sauce as indicated by the menu and the food was served exactly as I ordered. Did not have any reaction to the food.

They also had ciders on draft and plenty of other cans, bottles, and cocktails.

The staff was extremely knowledgeable about what gluten is and are very careful with cross contamination. They marked it special and the chef brought it to our table as well to ensure that my order wasn’t contaminated along the way.
