you can find GF breads in Mega mart, they have long bread, slice, rolls, English muffin...etc.
lulu hyper market provide some flour and good staff,
monoprix have som Sachr products from biscuits, snack,, etc
some restaurants in Doha provide GF food, such as Hakkasan, Marriot Hotel, Laduree Macaroon Pastries, Four season tea lounge for afternoon tea and also Le mer the ritz, you can always ask about GF 24 hrs or while reservation,
Looks like this thread is still going. We are considering a move to Qatar from the U.K. My five year old has coeliac disease so requires GF food. We are also vegetarian. It looks like products are available. Any ideas on eating out? Is it possible to get a GF pizza out which is happily commonplace now in the U.K.? Also, does anyone have any experience of schools catering for a GF diet? Is it usual that kids eat food provided by school and if so, will they meet her requirements (assuming we find a school of course?)
Buy them in "Almeera" and Gean hyper markets, currently the itesm are in Aldafna, ALhilal, Alnasr,airport and Alwakra branches. also, Gean Hyper market in Hayyat Plaza
There is Firin Gluten Free Bakery in Qatar newly opened, near Muaither Sports Club, Al Sailiyah Road. Tel: 44661200 Mbl: 33242558. They open from Sat-Thur 4-9 pm Friday closed.
I was in MegaMart over the weekend and found gluten-free bread in the bakery section for 8.50 QR/loaf. You can get about 10 good size slices out of it and it tastes pretty good. Good luck!
You can probably order your GF bread from La Cigale by phone but I think that, the 1st time, it is better to go to the bakery counter or to the casher.
Try to get a phone contact or an email for the next orders. Sorry but I may not give you the contacts I got there...
The price for a 1/2 kg bread is 50 QAR. It is not cheap but compared to the bread sold in Megamarkt, it is cheap AND better.
As promised on my previous post, I'm very glad to inform you that gluten free bread can be ordered at the bakery corner of La Cigale Hotel.
The pastry chef prepares white bread, pesto bread, tomato bread and thyme bread. He can also bake small sandwiches.
He also offers delicious cookies.
You will have to place your order one or two days in advance as this is a special preparation requesting a place and baking instruments completely free of gluten.
We eat these breads since a few week and are very satisfied.

It's deadly alright. And it's a sin I can't chomp into a pizza or enjoy a barley beverage every once in a while

Gluten-ee ! Isn't that one of the original deadly sins ?
did you search before asking....this topic has several discussions in QL forums.
Go to the Center behind Ramada Hotel.
In the supermarket you will find some gluten free products (not many but at least a few)
Regards!!
