King's Saltern Road, SO41 3QD
At a glance
A Butcombe pub with rooms on King's Saltern Road beside the marina, a few minutes' walk from Lymington town centre, reopened in May after renovation and serving food from breakfast through dinner daily.
Gluten-free options
The pub has confirmed a separate fryer kept for gluten free items, so chips and other gluten free fried food are not cooked in oil shared with battered or floured products. Gluten free dishes are prepared separately, then identified and served separately so the right plate reaches the right person. A QR code on the menu opens a live per-dish allergen lookup covering everything served. Butcombe Gold, the pub's own beer, is brewed to below 10 parts per million of gluten, so a gluten free pint is a realistic prospect.
Before you order
The kitchen describes real separation, but no dish is marked gluten free on the printed menu, so the allergen lookup is how you find your options. The pub uses gluten free Butcombe Gold in the batter for its fish and chips, so a gluten free fish and chips looks like a realistic order here — confirm it when you book, as the pub has not spelled it out in writing.
Worth asking?
Can the fish and chips be done gluten free?
