A long-time favorite of mine. The French-inspired menu is clearly marked with regard to items being gluten-free, or if there is a gluten-free option. The gluten-free dishes come with a little flag to confirm.

The staff are well informed about gluten-free issues, as well as being welcoming and helpful.

The food is delicious. There is cider and gluten-free beer.

Eating there is enjoyable - it has a real atmosphere.

The restaurant is opposite St Paul’s Cathedral. There is another branch (just as good) at the very different St Katherine’s Dock, near the Tower of London and Tower Bridge, at Unit 4 Quayside Tower Bridge House, St. Katharines Way, London, E1W 1BA https://www.caferouge.com/restaurants/london/st-katherine-docks

Cute chain French restaurant. Manager took my daughter’s order once the waiter was told a member of our party is gluten free. There were a lot of options, and they seemed to care a lot about cross contamination. The food, itself, was just okay. Not a lot of flavor, even the gluten dishes.

Items marked as gluten free or that they can be made gluten free. Had breakfast and got gluten free bread, which was nice.

This was not a good experience, the staff seemed uneducated about what gluten is. I was with someone who has a much more serious allergy to gluten and they gave her oven cooked chicken that was raw, she sent it back and they recooked a new chicken, this new one was also served raw. The overall experience was unfulfilling and we left unhappy and still hungry.
