I had a very good experience there. List of Allergens, all ingredients listed and the kitchen is ready to answer any question about shell fruits, nuts and possible gluten cross contamination.

I had a sea fruit bowl with rice and vegetables and banana plantain and everything was great. Listen GF and no allergic reaction.

They really know what they are doing and very professional. You won't feel bad because you ask in order to stay healthy. It's a great feeling to not be treated differently and respected.

The food is incredibly tasty as well and the portions are great.

The service was good, I let the server know about my coeliac disease and they communicated it with the kitchen. The food was gluten free and I had no reaction.

Caribbean restaurant serving all from tropical cocktails, fiery jerk pit, soul food, rice bowls and Indian inspired curries. The menu was clearly marked which dishes was gluten free. Lots of options, some dishes may say they contain gluten but are possible to be made gf just ask the staff. I had the jerk chicken breast, it was lovely. Highly recommend if you like spicy food, paired greatly with the pea and coconut rice.

The staff was helpful and knowledgeable about allergens and what precautions to take. Been to Turtle Bay several times and loves that they do takeout and delivery! You can also order cocktails for delivery! If you’re every in Ealing I recommend to pay them a visit!

Decent selection of gluten free on the normal Menu but nothing on the bottomless brunch for gluten free except the great cocktails.

Came here for cocktails with a friend. But was warned by the waitress that Turtle Bay is not suitable for celiacs, due to cross contamination as pretty much everything on the menu contains gluten. Don’t go here for food! I did have halumi bites and fries as they were listed as GF but had a dodgy stomach after, pretty sure it wasn’t the cocktails 😅.

You can scan the menu for allergen menu. Decent number of options both veggie and meaty. Usual disclaimer that they can't guarantee it's going to be 100% allergen free because of shared kitchen. Good portion size, a bit spicy for me but nice meal and nice atmosphere. I informed the server of my coeliac and he let the kitchen know.
