Reykjavik Chips

We went to this restaurant with the idea that I would only be able to eat chips.

However, when we asked the chef if there were any gluten-free options, he offered to make me the burger topping of my choice without the bun (and without the cheese).

Normally I don't eat meat, but I made an exception for this trip as I manage to find little to eat with my intolerances (there also seem to be vegetarian alternatives).

Does what it says on the tin. Its chips, chunky fries served in a cone with a dip of your choice. Most were GF. I had garlic mayo. Chips cooked on their own. One of the cheaper meals you will have in Iceland!

Separate fryers for chips to breaded products. Server knew exactly what we were asking before we’d even had the chance to explain properly (clues up on what gluten free actually meant)

Good for quick snack. Have 5 fryers so chips are safe. Server was clued up and went over the menu explaining that I could have the burger without the bun.

On this occasion I just had chips (which were lovely but just basic chips). All the sauces appeared to be gluten free and I was told to stay clear of the peanut sauce as I have a nut allergy.

It is very expensive we had 1 medium chips, 1 large chips and 2 bottles of gluten free beer (gull lite) and we were £27.

Was still great to feel normal and be able to have beer and chips.

The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about Celiac. He offered to make a burger without a bun and sub a salad. We were just in the mood for fries so that's all we ordered. Even so, it was nice that he offers to make accommodations. The fries were delicious!

This place is burgers, chicken sandwiches and fries. They do not have gluten free bread or buns so there are no gluten free burger options unless you get it bunless. The chicken and onion rings are not gluten free. Only the fries are gluten (regular & sweet potato) and most of the sauces.

Life is pretty tough for celiacs in Iceland… So maybe that’s what makes Reykjavík Chips so sweet! Dedicated fryer for regular and sweet potato fries, lots of sauces (ask on gf status of each), so you can get something safe and hot without breaking the bank.

The fries here were very good. I got mayo as my dip. However, there are burgers cooked alongside the fries, so be careful to make sure that the people making it are aware of cross contamination. The milkshakes they serve are not gluten free because of cross contamination in the blender.

UPDATE: Gul Lite ‘gluten free’ beer contains barley malt extract and it’s basically the only ‘gluten free’ beer being sold throughout Iceland. My joints are killing me and I now have the Big Sad. Brain fog and full body crash to follow. Sensitive celiacs beware (fries should still be fine though)

Best fries in Iceland. Awesome selection of dipping sauces. Great music.

It is not for celiacs. I got fries with burger, while he was preparing my burger he touched the bread and without washing his hands he then touched my burger. I didn't eat.

Freshly cooked hot chips with a choice of dips - what more is there to say? Really hit the spot at lunchtime when I wasn’t ready for a big meal. Separate GF fryer - server aware of CC and which dips I could have (only one off limits was the satay). Wish I could have gone back!

I just got the fries and My fiancé ordered a chicken sandwich(not gluten free). Fries go in a separate fryer and every time they handled an order they switched gloves without even being asked. Fries were very good and I didn’t get sick. Felt very safe! ^** update - ate here 3 times and every time they took precautions and I was able to enjoy food without any worry!

I have celiacs and the chips were GF, they have some sauces that are not GF but are knowledgeable and will tell you which ones are ok.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gf fries and sauces. Would love to go back. No cross contamination with oil.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Dedicated gluten free fries!! A rare find! Delicious! We remembered this place from 2 years ago. It was just as great! A little pricey, but finding GF fries in a dedicated fryer is very rare!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Got a large, ate em all, no issues... Also, yum.

Celiac friendly?

All but satay sauce gf. Massive portions and delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Only one sauce was not gluten free. Great fries!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

So delicious! Once again, I asked if there was any wheat to the waiter at the counter. He replied, “wheat? You mean gluten? Yes, the fries are gluten free.” I think most of the sauces are gluten free too. The vegan mayo is not gluten free. We loved the spicy chili and garlic sauce.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing fries and sauces. I had no issues and only 2 sauces had gluten which the server was very aware of. Highly recommend!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

So delicious!! Get the Chive sauce!

I used to live in Belgium and this fantastic shop is like the chip stands there. Chips are all they do, so the fryer is safe and they can make recommendations about their sauces. Delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious! Only two sauces are off limits, and their chips are amazing. The only thing they fry are the straight up potatos, so it's totally in the clear.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

As others have stated, the fries and all sauces except the vegan sauce are gluten free.

Delicious!! The sauces were amazing and it was so great to be able to eat fries without getting sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

good chips, but no water,

Awesome fries and sauces and inexpensive too - great for a snack while exploring town!

Loved it! So many sauces and such a treat to have fresh homemade fries with no worries of cross contamination. Only one sauce is not GF. So you will not feel deprived.
