Roy Hammond
Roy Hammond is a popular Asian fusion spot in Ballarat with several gluten-free dishes noted by coeliac diners—bulgogi tacos on corn tortillas, lamb ribs, and a soba noodle salad. The kitchen handles flour and soy sauce in the same space, so cross-contamination is possible. Staff are reportedly knowledgeable, and at least two coeliac reviewers felt safe eating there, but the restaurant does not have a dedicated gluten-free kitchen or any independent accreditation.

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.
Several menu items are clearly marked as vegan, including vegetable spring rolls, bao buns, sweet potato fries with vegan mayonnaise, and soba noodle salad. The HappyCow listing confirms the menu is labeled and two vegan reviewers gave positive reports. The kitchen is shared with meat dishes, so no dedicated equipment, but the venue has decent options for a non-vegan restaurant.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.
Vegetarian options are well-covered by the vegan menu and additional dishes with dairy or honey. HappyCow lists it as a veg-options venue with lacto-ovo choices. The menu labels are clear enough to identify vegetarian-friendly items, though the shared kitchen means no separate prep area.
