Lock's Paddock

Almost all of the menu is available gluten-free, with many dishes explicitly marked GF on the menu (cacio e pepe, cauliflower, weekly crudo, fritto misto, fresh burrata, beef carpaccio, pressed beef cheeks, pork belly, charred greens, warm olives, butterleaf salad, sides). Staff are reported as highly coeliac-aware and the kitchen can accommodate GF pasta and GF beer is available. The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists despite the strong awareness.
