Fish & Wish
Celiac friendly
2 Pier Hill, Southend-on-Sea SS1, UK
A must-visit gem with unique gluten-free options, friendly vibes, and delicious crispy bites to elevate your beach day.
I was working in the area today and did a Google search for places that do gluten free food. This place came up and I’m so glad I came here. My partner also enjoyed it too. The staff were friendly and the gluten free curry sauce tasted lovely ( definitely order it if you can). Would definitely come back if ever visiting. Thank you so much for being so welcoming.
Molo Lounge
Celiac friendly
10 Elmer Ave, Southend-on-Sea SS1 1NB, UK
Eclectic vibes and a welcoming atmosphere make this a must-visit spot, boasting a diverse menu that caters to all tastes at reasonable prices!
They have an amazing extensive gluten free menu, it would have been five stars, but I could not get under the table in my wheelchair to eat my food. It is fully wheelchair accessible apart from this feature. The bar guys and the waitresses were very friendly, providing a great atmosphere. The chocolate milkshake was well made.
Van Looy’s Fish & Chips
Accommodating

Excellent Gluten free choices. The man working was so friendly, one of the best gluten free fish and chips I’ve ever had. Will definitely be going back again

As someone who is Gluten Free, I was so impressed with Alfie’s Fish & chips! they had a great selection of gluten free options, and even the sauces were clearly labelled and safe for me to eat. it’s rare to find a place that’s this thoughtful and accommodating. Highly recommended! will be back!

This cozy cafe is a hidden gem with a warm atmosphere, perfect for pet lovers looking for a delightful spot to relax and enjoy.
A lovely little cafe in Leigh on sea. I am gluten free (gluten allergy - staff were knowledgeable and knew about shared fryers etc) and had lots of options without missing out on much (only change to English breakfast was to swap sausage out). A lovely atmosphere and if you have a dog it is a perfect spot! Look forward to returning in summer
