Top 15 gluten-free restaurants in Benidorm

Gluten-free guide to Benidorm

Benidorm is a high-volume tourist destination, and its gluten-free options rest mainly on mixed-kitchen restaurants with good celiac awareness, plus chains with gluten-free products, rather than on fully dedicated kitchens. ACECOVA is the reference association for the Valencian Community, and you will also see celiac association decals on some doors. The local Mediterranean cooking —rice dishes, grilled fish and seafood— often starts from suitable ingredients, but stocks, colourings, flour in sauces, battered items and, above all, shared fryers still need confirming. In high season venues work at a fast pace: calling ahead and clearly explaining that this is a medical need makes the difference.
