Kin + Deum

Served nuts to an allergy sufferer + no longer safe for gluten-free! I came here for Father’s Day lunch because I’d heard it was good for dietaries, but it was a stressful experience. The waiter seemed to struggle to understand my allergies (gluten + nuts) and kept bringing contradictory info from the kitchen. They brought me a noodle dish with peanuts on top. The food itself was decent and the noodles were nice, if very very sweet. Came back a second time hoping it’d be better for dinner, and maybe the first time was a one-off, but they advised that due to cross contamination, no dishes are GF. The online menu remained GF so I was very disappointed and had to leave. It’s a real shame when restaurants do this - if they kept to good protocols they’d have a steady stream of GF people as it’s really hard for us to find places to eat.

Cozy place near London Bridge. It’s the second time I’ve eaten here, and it’s always a safe bet. The food is very tasty and it’s almost all gluten free, my girlfriend has the chance to taste lots of different things. Last thing, Deena (one of the waitresses) was very kind and quick, loved it.

I’m going to rate this really low, as this place used to be a safe haven for coeliacs but has sneakily updated their gluten free policy in a way where now majority of the items are cross contaminated. BEFORE though, this was IT. I’ve ordered from them many times and have countless amount of visits, and have shared the recommendation to friends as well. A shame really that they switched their policy! Hope they reconsider.
