Gluten Free Thai Menu

An extensive gluten free menu at Doncaster's specialist Thai restaurant. Curries, salads, soups, noodle dishes and stir fries, freshly cooked by Rin in our 67 Copley Road kitchen.

Gluten free Thai food is one of the more common dietary adaptations we make at our Copley Road kitchen. Rin has been cooking it for over ten years across South Yorkshire, and the system is straightforward: tell us when you order, and your dish comes off a clean wok, with gluten free soy sauce where it's needed, and ingredients verified gluten free at the source. The kitchen handles gluten free orders every week - it is not an unusual request, and we will not make it feel like one.

Always let our team know when you order if you have coeliac disease or a gluten sensitivity. When ordering, just say "I need gluten free" - that is enough for Rin to take it from there. Rin prepares each gluten free order with full care - clean wok, gluten free soy sauce, and no shared cooking surfaces. If you have coeliac disease specifically, our coeliac-friendly Thai dining guide goes into the kitchen protocol in more detail.

How Our Kitchen Handles Gluten Free

Rin has been cooking authentic Thai food across South Yorkshire for over ten years. She's careful about ingredients and takes dietary requirements seriously. Here's how we handle gluten free orders in practice.

Verified ingredients

Mae Ploy curry pastes and tom yum paste imported from Thailand - both confirmed gluten free. Lee Kum Kee Panda Brand Oyster Sauce - certified gluten free on the label. Tiger Tiger gluten free rice noodles used in Pad Thai, Pad See Eew and the wider noodle range.

Soy sauce swap

Tell our team you need gluten free when ordering. We swap regular soy for gluten free soy sauce in any noodle, stir fry or fried rice dish that uses it.

Dedicated fryer

Our crispy belly pork is fried in fresh, dedicated oil with no flour coating - just salt-cured pork belly. Zero cross-contamination from battered or wheat-coated items.

Cooked to order

Every dish is cooked fresh in a clean wok per order. Rin tastes and adjusts as she cooks, and she'll personally make sure your gluten free order is prepared with full care.

Curries

All six Thai curries are gluten free. We use Mae Ploy curry pastes imported from Thailand - chillies, lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime, garlic, shrimp paste and spices. No wheat, no thickeners. Curries are simmered with coconut milk and finished in the wok per order.

What Coeliac Diners Actually Ask Us

Some questions come up regularly enough at the table or on the phone that they are worth answering upfront. These are the things gluten free diners care about most when they are deciding whether to order. For broader guidance on dining out with coeliac disease, Coeliac UK is the recognised UK authority.

The wok between orders

Each dish is cooked in a single wok per order, and the wok is washed between different orders. When you order gluten free, that wok has come straight from a wash, not from a previous customer's Pad Kra Pao.

Sharing a table with someone having starters

Our starters use wheat wrappers and we will not pretend otherwise. If you are coeliac and someone at your table is ordering spring rolls or dumplings, tell us when you order - we can plate your dish first and seat you mindfully. Honest conversation works better than assumptions.

Crispy belly pork specifically

Our Moo Krob is salt-cured pork belly fried in fresh, dedicated oil with no flour coating. No batter, no dredge, no wheat. Some restaurants use a shared fryer that handles battered items - we do not.

Sauces mixed fresh

Pad Thai sauce, satay sauce and the chilli dips are built per order rather than pooled in shared bowls. Cross-contamination from a shared sauce bowl is not a concern in our kitchen because shared sauce bowls are not part of how Rin works.

Dishes we cannot offer gluten free

To be straight with you, two of our menu sections rely on seasoning bases that contain wheat. We won't put these on the gluten free list:

  • All starters (spring rolls, dumplings, samosa, fish cakes, crispy mixed vegetable, sesame prawn toast, crispy chicken and prawn starters) - wheat wrappers and coatings
  • Pad Kra Pao dishes (the Thai basil stir fry base sauce contains gluten)
  • Noodle Soup Dark and Light (the soup powder base contains gluten)

Everything else above is either naturally gluten free or made gluten free with a soy sauce swap. If you're unsure about anything, please ask us when you order - we'd rather check than guess.

Common Questions

Is your gluten free menu suitable for coeliacs?
We take coeliac requirements seriously and prepare gluten free orders with care - clean wok, gluten free soy sauce, dedicated fryer for crispy belly pork. Always tell our team when you order so Rin can prepare your dish properly. We work in a kitchen that handles wheat in some dishes (notably Pad Kra Pao and Noodle Soups), so if you have severe coeliac disease please let us know and we'll talk it through with you.
Do I need to call ahead?
No need to book in advance for gluten free orders. Just mention it when you arrive, when you call, or when ordering through our delivery service - we handle gluten free orders every week.
Are the curry pastes really gluten free?
Yes - we use Mae Ploy, one of the cleanest authentic Thai curry paste brands. Their pastes contain chillies, lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime, garlic, shrimp paste, salt and spices. No wheat, no modified starches, no thickeners.
Can I order gluten free for delivery or takeaway?
Yes - just tell us when you call to order on 01302 210408. We deliver across Doncaster and up to 8 miles for £2. Card payments by phone for collection and delivery.
What about other allergies?
Please tell us when you order. We can adapt many dishes for nut, egg, dairy and shellfish allergies, and we have a comprehensive vegan menu too. Always let our team know in advance so Rin can prepare your dish with full care.
