Strongly trusted ·what tier A means

Ed's Hastings makes a bold promise: the entire menu is gluten-free. Their website says it twice in bold, listing fried chicken, lasagna, noodles, and desserts as all gluten-free. No independent accreditation backs this up, and there is no detail on whether fryers or prep areas are dedicated, but the clear commitment to a gluten-free-only menu is strong. Coeliac diners are wise to ask about specific cross-contact protocols when they arrive.

Limited information ·what tier E means

The website mentions 'vegan fried rice' among take-home options, suggesting at least one vegan dish, but no other vegan markers appear. Not enough to assess the kitchen's approach to cross-contact. Best to call ahead.
