Review of Cöli Bisztró

Budapest, Jókai u. 40, 1065 Hungary

Overall Rating

Review


I went here during the summer of 2024, but I have forgotten to leave a review until now. I have been a diagnosed coeliac for 14 years with an additional mild allergy to wheat. As a tourist who is used to coeliac standards in my home country barring wheat products from use, I did not know until too late that the majority of Cöli's food contains gluten-free wheat starch.

This caused me to go into an allergic reaction. The pizza dough itself was sticky and greasy. Not at all worth the pain. Signposting to other allergens like milk and wheat was very poor at the time of my visit. Ingredients lists are always very comforting for any coeliac, but these are only provided on the wrapped grocery products sold.

In addition, my vegan friend was given normal cheese which she had to return. Staff are not particularly friendly either. For those with an intolerance to gluten, you would most likely be safe eating here. It is a dedicated facility yet their lax approach to other allergens raised some concerns for me. Eat with caution.
