Per-allergen evidence

Vegetarian

confidence 0.55 ·

Verifiably Safe, Either a 100% dedicated kitchen (no allergen on premises) or actively certified by a recognised accreditation body for this allergen.

Vegan

confidence 0.55 ·

Marked menu + dedicated, Allergen-marked menu plus dedicated fryer / prep area. Staff trained. Not a fully dedicated kitchen.

Venue states all food and drinks are 100% plant-based, but dairy milk is available on request for coffee, meaning dairy allergen is present on premises. No dedicated fryer or kitchen. Menu implicitly marks all items as vegan since everything is plant-based. No external certification.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 0.50 ·

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

Gluten-free options are clearly marked on the menu (GF, GFO) and some dishes can be made GF for an extra fee. However, there is no dedicated gluten-free kitchen or fryer, and regular gluten-containing items (croffle, pastry) are served from the same kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is present.

marked menu

Dairy-free

confidence 0.50 ·

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

All food is plant-based and therefore dairy-free, but dairy milk is kept on premises for coffee and is served upon request. The same kitchen is shared, so cross-contamination risk exists. Menu does not specifically mark dairy, but the vegan designation covers it.

Egg-free

confidence 0.50 ·

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

All food is vegan, so eggs are not used in any dish. However, the kitchen is shared and no dedicated egg-free preparation area is mentioned. Risk of cross-contamination from shared utensils or surfaces.

Shellfish-free

confidence 0.50 ·

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

Soy-free

confidence 0.50 ·

Available on request, No marked menu but staff will accommodate. Quality varies by who is working that shift.

Venue states 'we do offer soy-free options', but soy-based ingredients (tofu, soy whipped cream, soy sauce) are used extensively. No dedicated prep area or marking on the menu. Accommodation is available on request and depends on staff knowledge.

Nut-free

confidence 0.60 ·

Not appropriate, Documented unsafe, multiple negative reports, or refuses to accommodate. Surfaced to warn rather than recommend.

Venue explicitly states: 'Unfortunately, we are unable to cater to nut allergies.' This is a direct refusal and indicates the kitchen cannot guarantee nut-free food. Cross-contamination is likely.

Reminder

Always confirm with venue staff before ordering. Tiers and accreditations are guides, not guarantees.
