Temple Canteen

Temple Canteen is a haven for South Indian vegetarian flavors, with a menu brimming with naturally gluten-free classics like idli, dosa, and uttapam—all thoughtfully marked as GF. But here's the thing: while the kitchen staff seem knowledgeable and happy to help, this isn't a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact remains a real concern, especially with shared fryers for items like vada and samosas. If you're celiac, it's best to stick to steamed or griddled dishes (like dosas and idlis) and steer clear of anything fried unless you can confirm separate oil. Honestly, it's one of those rare spots where you can eat well and feel part of a community, but you'll need to have that extra layer of vigilance we all know too well.
