1. St James Hotel and Club
I compared the standard afternoon tea and the gluten-free afternoon tea at this 5 star boutique hotel and truly struggled to tell the difference.

2. 108 Marylebone Lane
Again, in the spirit of research, I tried both the classic afternoon tea and the 'healthy' gluten-free afternoon tea to try to find the differences and can report it really was hard to tell them apart. Read my review...More »
3. Camellia's Tea House
Please note, Camellia's Tea House is leaving Kingly Court in May 2015. See their website for more news, when available.
This delightful tea house is in Kingly Court, off Carnaby Street in central London. There's always gluten-free cake and a gluten-free bread on offer whether you choose to have the full afternoon tea cake stand or not. The founder of the business is a homeopath and produces many tea blends for health and wellness. They offer an exceptionally well-priced afternoon tea at under £20, and there's a cream tea option too. Read my review...More »
4. Kingsway Hall Hotel
I went back to this Covent Garden hotel to try the gluten-free afternoon tea as it is so well-priced. You need to give 24 hours' notice to enjoy the gluten-free or vegetarian afternoon tea but it's worth planning ahead. Read my review...More »
5. BB Bakery Afternoon Tea Bus
The idea of tea and cakes while getting a London sightseeing tour on a Routemaster bus makes me very happy indeed so I went to try the gluten-free afternoon tea. Here's my review...More »
6. Fortnum and Mason
Fortnum and Mason offers a Gluten Intolerant Afternoon Tea in the Diamond Jubilee Tea Salon on the fourth floor of the flagship Piccadilly store. The afternoon tea includes all the classic elements in a beautiful tea room with a piano player, plus servers who know the menu well.More »
7. Chesterfield Mayfair
The Chesterfield Mayfair serves afternoon tea in The Conservatory or Butler's Retreat restaurant. A selection of homemade sandwiches on white gluten free bread, with a selection of gluten free pastries and scones, and it can all be ordered on the day without giving notice. More »
8. St Ermin's Hotel
I've enjoyed the St Ermin's afternoon tea a few times but haven't yet tried the gluten-free offering. The menu looks good and I'd be happy to recommend here based on many pleasant visits before and the fact that Newby Teas are delicious too. I've also stayed at the hotel if you'd like to stay for longer (St Ermin's Hotel review).More »
9. The Montague on The Gardens
This Bloomsbury hotel is happy to accommodate special dietary needs such as gluten-free, dairy-free and vegetarian options. Montague on the Gardens is part of the Red Carnation Hotel Collection so you'll find the same excellent service as at The Chesterfield Mayfair.More »
10. The Royal Horseguards
I've been for afternoon tea here a few times as it's a nice venue close to the River Thames in a really central location. I've not tried the gluten-free afternoon tea but this review seems very positive. The hotel does ask that you request gluten-free at the time of booking.More »
