Family posing in front of Big Ben in London
The author traveled with her kids to London and was surprised at how allergy-friendly restaurants were in the city.
  • Our family traveled to London, apprehensive of how the kids would eat there with food allergies.
  • We were pleasantly surprised by the precautions that London restaurants take — more than in the US.
  • London is an ideal destination for food allergy families, and we can't wait to visit again.

As a parent of kids with food allergies, traveling can be stressful. I worry about what they will eat and whether they will be safe when we are outside the comfort of our home.
