we are just back from hols and wanted to shout from the rooftops about the chip shop we stumbled across by accident on Sandown High Street, Fat Harrys. there was a sign in the window "Gluten free fish and poached cod available", so i went in to ask "Is the GF fish cooked separately then?" expecting the answer would be no, I was amazed and delighted that the mans response was "of Course it is otherwise its not GF" YES!!!!! "And the chips are GF too?"
yes, they had 3 fryers, one for chips, one for non gf fish, one for gf fish
one delighted coeliac dd , they were delish too

Isle of Wight places I found to eat Posted by selby on 9/7/2009 GF board Recently visited Isle of Wight and went to a Chippy that catered for GF. Fat Harry's 53 High Street Sandown PO36 8DF Tel: 01983 401214 The owner (I think) told me they have 3 fryers so can cater for gluten free any time any day and keep the end one free for GF. No one in the shop was GF or aware, the shop assistants had no idea what gluten was and whilst waiting for mine to be cooked, I noticed they used the same utensils! It's great to know they do GF batter but it would be even nicer to know that Chip shop owners AND all staff understand what gluten intolerant means and especially about cross contamination! I had haddock (£3.95) and chips(£1.60) Ketchup/mayo sachets 15p!which were nice as I ate them on the sea front, a novelty to us city people. Not the best GF fish n chips I've ever had but being able to have some while on holiday was great. Also used: Indian/Tandoori restaurant : www.maharaja-shanklin.co.uk The owner seemed to understand the wheat thing, food was excellent.

Had a lovely trip to the Isle of Wight recently. Stopped at Warwick services and had Starbucks tuna sandwich and chocolate brownie on way down. There is a Waitrose and a KFC so other choices probably available. We stayed at the Broadway Park Hotel in Sandown. They provide a seperate gf menu for evening meal every day with approx 3 choices each for starter, main and dessert. I was also given toast with breakfast and a roll with the evening meal. I took my own cereal but had full English breakfast (apart from sausage). Found a gf ham sandwich and choc muffin in M&S in Newport and a chicken salad sandwich from Sainsbury. The only downside was after making a special trip to Fat Harry's I cuoldn't have gf fish as they didn't have enough clean oil. Corrie's Cabin in Cowes do gf batter on Tuesday and sunday. All in all a good trip to a fantastic island. There are other places but this is what I found in a few days there
