Prima Boston

Prima Boston offers a dedicated Gluten Free Monday (4-10pm) where the kitchen is cleaned and sanitised, and the entire menu is gluten-free. On other days, the kitchen is shared but staff are knowledgeable, GF pasta is boiled in separate water, a dedicated fryer is reported by some reviewers, and GF dishes come with an allergy marker. Multiple coeliac diners report no symptoms, but two independent reports of getting sick after eating here (one on a non-Monday, one on a Monday) prevent a higher tier. No formal accreditation from a recognised body is mentioned.
