Where to eatThe absolute safest thing to do when needing to eat out of the house is off course to bring your own food. However, this may not always be possible, and also, we all deserve a good meal out from time to time. Cross contamination is going to be your biggest threat. When I order coffee in a restaurant, it usually doesn't matter how many times I say 'no biscuit on the side', the biscuit usually shows up on the plate anyway, and when I point it out they simply just take it off. You must explain WHY you don't want the biscuit. Use simple words, the person you are talking to may not have English or Arabic (or which ever language you are speaking) as a first language.
Key points to remember
I think its vital that we give feedback to the places where we eat. If they look after you well and get it right, let them know! Likewise, if you get ill, you must get in touch and let them know so that they can try to do better next time. One may argue that they (the restaurants) should get it right each and every time, but unfortunately they wont. They wont know they failed unless you tell them.
The restaurants listed below either have gluten free items on their menu or will do a gluten free meal on request. All of them have been tried and tested by people from our Facebook page. Please keep in mind that although these places have 'got it right' with alot of diners, they may also have 'got it wrong'. It is your responsibility to check each restaurant yourself. Gluten Free Bahrain will take no responsibility for your well being after eating in any of the following restaurants. If you have a particularly bad experience, feel free to share with us via email and we can consider removing that restaurant from our list.

Key points to remember
- Call in advance if you can.
- Let a manager know your dietary needs as soon as you walk in the door.
- Make your order through the manager, not the waiter.
- Ask questions of how the food is going to be prepared.
- Don't be afraid to give step by step instructions, no one wants you to get ill.
- Explain what will happen to you if they get it wrong.
- If you don't feel confident about the restaurant, go elsewhere!
