Restaurant 317 - Italian Restaurant Parramatta

Most dishes on the menu have gluten-free options clearly marked in a GF column, including pasta, risotto, chicken, seafood, sides, and desserts. Staff ask to be informed of allergies when ordering. Pastas are cooked to order, but the restaurant does not specify any details about cross-contamination risks.

Conservation Hut Cafe

The menu marks items as GF and CFO. A warning states that GF items are 'cooked with non gluten free items', indicating a shared kitchen and a real risk of cross-contact for anyone with celiac disease. GF bread and buns are available. The venue instructs coeliac guests to inform staff if CFO modifications are desired, though breakfast and lunch menus generally do not allow substitutions of any kind. No dedicated equipment or certification is noted.

2773 Cafe

Glenbrook · Cafe · Pizza

Gluten-free items are labelled, though they share a kitchen with regular gluten. Cross-contamination is a real risk. The menu uses a "CFO" label, meaning coeliac friendly with modification, and asks guests to inform staff if they are coeliac. There is no dedicated kitchen or fryer.

Fed Blue Mountains

Wentworth Falls · Cafe

Fed Blue Mountains clearly labels GF items on its menu, offering many gluten-free choices like cakes, arancini, and toast substitutes. However, the shared kitchen, fryer, and toaster pose real cross-contamination risks. Some staff know about allergies, yet multiple reviews describe mix-ups and one coeliac diner getting sick. The venue itself warns that ordering fries makes a dish no longer gluten-free. This spot works well for gluten-friendly diners, but coeliacs should call ahead to discuss their needs before visiting.

Tempus Katoomba

Katoomba · Cafe

Tempus Katoomba is reported to have a gluten-free menu and staff who understand coeliac cross-contamination, but the kitchen is shared and not dedicated gluten-free, creating a risk of cross-contact. Some reviews mention a dedicated fryer, though practices may vary. The venue's own website does not provide allergen details, so it is best to confirm with staff when ordering.

Frankie's Restaurant & Bar Lithgow

Vale of Clwydd · Italian

Frankie's has a gluten-free menu. It includes items like pizza and dessert, and while staff are reportedly aware and will take extra care when coeliac is mentioned, the kitchen is shared and not dedicated gluten-free. The venue is not accredited. Calling ahead to confirm current practices is advisable.

Kebabiya

Bella Vista · Indian

Some menu items have a gluten allergen warning. The FAQ also mentions that many kebabs, curries, and rice dishes are naturally gluten-free, but all breads contain gluten and the kitchen is shared, so cross-contact with gluten is possible even for those dishes. Staff can guide you if you tell them your needs.

Lily's Pad Cafe

Leura · Cafe · Brunch

The menu labels many items as GF or GF available, and house-made gluten-free cakes are offered.

Cross-contact procedures should be confirmed directly with the kitchen.

Rubyos Restaurant & Bar

Newtown · Vegan · Vegetarian

Rubyos clearly marks GF options on its Bottomless Lunch menu, and the venue also offers a dedicated Gluten Free menu page and a GF banquet. Most a la carte dishes are described as gluten-free.

Calling ahead to confirm specific needs is advisable, especially for coeliac-safe dining.
