Borehamwood Tandoori Restaurant

Borehamwood WD6 4EG · Indian
GF·CoeliacA

Borehamwood Tandoori Restaurant is listed on the Coeliac UK Gluten Free Accredited Venues page, indicating it meets the charity's Gluten Free Standard. The accreditation page does not name the venue individually or link to its website, so the exact scope of the accreditation (for example, dedicated kitchen or staff training) is unverified. A separate community blog, Coeliac Sanctuary, does not list this venue, and the Atly listing refers to a different pub, Mops & Brooms. The venue's own website was not scraped. Calling ahead to confirm the kitchen's gluten-free procedures is advisable.

Menu items are marked with allergen codes (G for gluten) and staff should be informed of allergies before ordering. However, the kitchen is shared and the venue explicitly states it cannot guarantee food is free from allergen ingredients, indicating risk of cross-contamination. No dedicated gluten-free equipment or certified accreditation.

Darcy's provides a separate gluten-free menu. Items marked with a GF icon appear across brunch, tapas, mains, and desserts. The kitchen is shared and not dedicated to gluten-free preparation. Staff have been helpful on occasion but have also made mistakes, such as serving regular bread instead of gluten-free bread. The venue does not guarantee 100 percent gluten-free safety. The FindMeGlutenFree listing warns that the restaurant may not be safe for coeliac disease. Cross-contamination risk is present. Coeliac diners should confirm with staff and exercise caution.

Honest caveat, One reviewer reported being given regular bread instead of GF bread, only discovering the mistake after eating it.

Ugly Dumpling offers a separate gluten-free menu with items marked GF, uses a dedicated fryer, and plates GF food on black dishes to reduce cross-contamination. Staff are trained and knowledgeable about coeliac safety. However, the kitchen handles flour and cannot guarantee 100% gluten-free; one diner reported a reaction. Best for those comfortable with shared kitchen precautions.

Ugly Dumpling offers a separate gluten-free menu and uses dedicated fryers and kitchen space for GF items, with colour-coded plates to avoid mix-ups. Staff are trained on cross-contamination. The kitchen is shared with wheat-based dishes, however, and the venue is not a dedicated GF facility. One coeliac diner reported getting glutened.

The menu lists many dishes but does not mark any as gluten-free. The venue's own site and the OJK accreditation directory suggest the kitchen is kosher-dairy, which implies a structured kitchen, but no dedicated gluten-free equipment, fryer, or separate prep area is mentioned. No coeliac accreditation body (Coeliac UK, etc.) lists this venue. Without marked menu items or clear cross-contamination controls, coeliac safety is unconfirmed. Best to call ahead.

German Doner Kebab (GDK) offers some gluten-free options, including the Doner Box (meat, chips, salad without bread) and the Doner Salad Box. The chain does not have a dedicated gluten-free menu and states that items may contain or come into contact with gluten, as the kitchen is shared. A coeliac-friendly meal was noted in a review. There is no dedicated fryer or kitchen, meaning cross-contamination risk is present. Confirming directly with staff and checking the allergen guide is advisable.
