Brass Kitchen & Bar

Brass Kitchen & Bar is well-regarded by the coeliac community for its dedicated gluten-free fryer, knowledgeable staff, and willingness to adapt most menu items (including burgers, fish and chips, and desserts) to be gluten-free. The kitchen is shared (it is not a dedicated gluten-free facility) but guests report clear protocols. A separate fryer is used for chips and pan-fried fish coated in cornstarch, staff clean surfaces and change gloves, and one waiter is himself coeliac. A few reviewers note that the 'gluten-free beer' is actually gluten-reduced, so coeliacs should ask before ordering. The restaurant is a popular and confident choice for safe gluten-free dining in Reykjavik.

HappyCow lists Brass Kitchen & Bar as a non-veg restaurant with vegan options, including a Moving Mountains brand plant-based burger. The single HappyCow reviewer describes it as 'nice and filling'. No evidence of a dedicated cooking area, marked menu, or staff training for vegan prep. Call ahead to confirm what can be adapted.

Multiple diners report getting dairy-free meals (e.g. dairy-free fish and chips, dairy-free desserts) and the kitchen is noted as accommodating requests. However there is no dedicated fryer or kitchen space for dairy-free, and the menu does not mark dairy items. Staff will work with you if you ask, but best to confirm your needs directly.

Brass Kitchen & Bar serves burgers, including a vegan option, alongside sides such as fries and salad, though no allergen-marked menu is available and there is no dedicated vegetarian preparation area. The kitchen handles meat and fish. Staff can accommodate dietary requests if asked.
