Hippopotamus

Hippopotamus is a French steakhouse chain. Some branches (Serris, Arcueil, Toulouse, Wellington) report having a separate gluten-free menu or an allergy menu with gluten-free options, and staff may be able to accommodate coeliac needs. However, the kitchen is shared and cross-contamination risk is acknowledged. The Wellington branch has particularly positive reviews from coeliac diners, with staff knowledgeable and a chef able to prepare a separate gluten-free high tea. The Arcueil branch reported a separate food prep area. The Paris Wagram branch had no gluten-free menu and no dedicated fryer. Always confirm with the specific branch and staff before ordering.

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

Honest caveat: The Paris Wagram branch (FindMeGlutenFree) explicitly states no gluten-free menu and no dedicated fryer, and the platform warns it is not safe for coeliac disease.
