Light Years - Byron Bay

confidence 65% ·

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.

The menu marks numerous vegetarian (v) dishes, including dumplings, bao buns, curries, salads, and sides. HappyCow lists the venue as 'Lacto, Ovo' with veg-options. Shared kitchen with fish, meat, and seafood dishes means cross-contamination is possible, but the breadth of marked veggie options is good.
