Ranbath Organic

Colombo 05 · Vegan · €

Multiple coeliac diners on FindMeGlutenFree report this as a dedicated gluten-free kitchen. The venue claims 100% gluten-free status, mills its own rice, gram, and millet flours, and serves hoppers, curries, and desserts without any gluten ingredients. A handful of positive reviews specifically note zero reactions. One review, however, describes a violent vomiting episode after eating there, and another flags food-safety concerns including dirty wicker plates, flies, and grimy pitchers. No independent third-party accreditation exists for Sri Lankan venues, with no body comparable to Coeliac UK or Coeliac Australia offering certification, so the coeliac classification rests entirely on community reports and the venue's own claims.
