25 Mar 2024 | Gastronomy

Santiago de Compostela is a city with a great gastronomic offer. However, if you are gluten intolerant, finding an establishment that has safe options can be cumbersome. For this reason, we have prepared a guide of celiac-friendly restaurants in Santiago so you can go out to eat without any problems.

The Galician capital enjoys a good position in Galicia in terms of gluten-free gastronomy. In fact, it is the city of the autonomous community with the largest number of businesses certified by the
Galician Celiac Association (ACEGA).
.

This entity delivers its distinctive ‘Galician Gluten Free Restaurant‘ to those places that are committed to the safety and peace of mind of people with celiac disease. Their selection process consists of a supervision that includes studying the menu, checking that the staff is well trained and reviewing the facilities to see how the food is prepared.

Thus, over the years, ACEGA has compiled a complete and detailed list of all the stores that offer suitable products. Compostela has 42 establishments recognized by the association.
